Chapter 126 Complete Victory
Chapter 126 Complete Victory
On the other side of the fennel, however, lies a completely different scene.
She went from initial despair to a crushing victory.
When Yotsuba and Asaka stood in her way, Fennel was devastated.
This isn't the time for magical girl action!
With two disciples present, the self-destruct tactic that could have been used was no longer viable.
Moreover, these two disciples are both inexperienced magical girls—they're fine for fighting monsters, but getting involved in deadly battles with other magical girls is wishful thinking.
Of course, the enemy showed no mercy either, and the leading magical girl with long, dark purple hair began to gather magic power.
Just as the opposing side was about to make their move, a streak of emerald green light pierced the sky—
The rainbow light was not aimed at Huixiang and her two companions, but at the purple-haired villain who was about to launch an attack!
"—Pfft!"
Magic bursts forth—
Before the purple-haired, corrupted magical girl could even utter a cry of alarm, her right hand, which was gathering magical power, was severed.
"Ugh—who...who is it?!"
The magical girl, her hand severed, let out a painful scream, which also allowed her to see who had come from—
A petite magical girl, entirely in dark green, wields a gigantic scythe that seems incongruous with her size.
"duckweed?!"
Fennel was both surprised and delighted to see her companions arrive to provide support.
"What a sorry sight, Senior Fennel." Floating Duckweed didn't turn around, but her tone was full of mockery. "There are only three small fry on the other side, and they've already pushed you to this point."
"Stop...stop nagging! My fighting style isn't conventional!" Fennel's cheeks flushed slightly. Although she was still being stubborn, the weight that had been hanging over her heart finally lifted.
The arrival of reinforcements instantly reversed the course of the battle.
"You...you are...!" The purple-haired villain with one arm severed was both shocked and furious. She covered her wound and quickly retreated, rejoining her two companions.
Fu Ping didn't say anything more. The next moment, she rushed forward and arrived in front of one of the "Blooming Bud" level enemies.
too fast!
The corrupted magical girl raised a magical shield, intending to resist, but the floating duckweed was still a step ahead—
With a single swing of the scythe, the magical girl was instantly and severely injured by the onslaught of the floating plants.
In the ensuing battle, the advantage completely favored Fennel and Duckweed.
Although the three corrupted magical girls' mental attributes were all related to combat, they weren't particularly powerful. Floating simply gained the upper hand by relying on the stats of a late-game "Eternal Radiance" level magical girl. With Fennel providing support from the side, the three corrupted magical girls were completely overwhelmed.
In contrast, Yotsuba and Asaka were stunned, floating in the air watching the battle unfold before them.
For them, this was far beyond their capabilities. A lingering fear remained in their hearts, a consequence of their previous impulsiveness.
After a stalemate lasting several tens of minutes, the three corrupted magical girls were completely unable to hold on. However, having fought to this point, retreat was no longer an option.
The three women exchanged glances and decided to split up and flee—that way, even if the other women gave chase, they could only chase one person at a time, and one of them would be able to escape!
However, in the next second, another silver figure descended upon the battlefield.
"Where do you want to run off to?"
Noah, wielding the long sword "Oborozuki Byakuya," blocked their last escape route.
Floating duckweed, fennel, and Noah—the three of them joined forces to extinguish their last hope of escaping.
What followed... could no longer be called a battle.
It would be more accurate to call it a one-sided massacre.
Floating Duckweed and Noah's kills were swift and decisive—Floating Duckweed sliced her opponent in half with her scythe, while Noah's opponent was "instantly" disintegrated into a pile of "pieces." Fennel, on the other hand, faltered for a moment, holding her own against her opponent, but was quickly dealt with by the arriving Noah and Floating Duckweed.
Asaka and Yotsuba watched all this, their faces pale, completely speechless.
Yotsuba even covered her mouth, almost vomiting.
The bloody and cruel scene before them far exceeded their comprehension. The splattering magic and limbs, and the mournful cries of the enemies before their deaths, were like the most terrifying nightmare, shattering their innocent and beautiful fantasies of being "magical girls."
"Okay, that's all."
Fennel flew to the two students who were completely dumbfounded and sighed softly.
"You two, go back to my apartment first. Get some rest, I'll be there in a bit."
"Yes...yes..."
The two girls nodded mechanically, then flew off toward the apartment, looking utterly dejected.
Watching their departing figures, Fennel sighed, then flew to Noah and Floating Duckweed's side.
"Honestly... why didn't you come sooner?" She glanced at the duckweed with a hint of reproach.
"Sorry, I didn't expect an attack at this time." Floating Duckweed put away her sickle and a playful smile appeared on her face. "But Senior Fennel was only able to get out of trouble because of my timely support."
"Well, it's fortunate that you weren't ambushed, Fu Ping." Noah looked at her. "If it weren't for that, and if Yi Luoxin had sent another group to monitor you, I'm afraid Hui Xiang would have been in grave danger as well."
"Perhaps, Yi Luoxin didn't expect my existence," Fu Ping pondered for a moment. "After all, it's believable that a magical girl like Senior Huixiang, who can transfer memories, would become your teammate. But a magical girl like me with a special mindset, Yi Luoxin probably didn't even care about me."
"I think it's definitely possible. But—" Noah was about to say something when her phone suddenly rang, interrupting her.
She took out her phone, and after seeing the name on the caller ID, she breathed a long sigh of relief.
It's Ayanami.
She pressed the answer button.
"Noah, we're done here too."
"Hmm, it seems everything's alright on your end."
"...Judging from your tone... you don't seem worried about me at all? Anyway, let's get down to business." Lingbo's voice sounded slightly tired on the other end of the phone. "We've captured a corrupted magical girl. This prisoner... what should we do with her? Jixia wants to kill her directly, but I..."
"Kill her."
Noah answered without any hesitation.
"Ayanami, listen carefully. The corrupted magical girls are no longer the 'companions' we once knew. Don't cling to the illusion that you can 'awaken them'."
"It might be a little easier for you to accept, since you don't really know them. But to me... they're just 'others' disguised as old acquaintances. You'll have to understand that in the future."
