I love time travel the most!

A clear voice echoed across the plain.

At the same time, a beam of light flashed across the body of the giant toad that had swallowed Huihui. A moment later, the monster was instantly split in two.

Just as Kobayashi caught Megumi falling from mid-air.

“—Energy Ignition!”

The clear voice rang out again.

At the same time, the three giant toads that were approaching the group suddenly burst into flames, spewing out tongues of fire as if they were burning from their own bodies, turning into blue and white fireballs.

The air was filled with the aroma of cooked meat.

At this moment, a petite figure dressed in a black robe appeared before everyone.

"……who is it?"

The rescued people looked bewildered.

Chapter 268 Yoyo

The girl who appeared in front looked to be only 14 or 5 years old.

Upon closer inspection, her style of dress was remarkably similar to Huihui's, both wearing jet-black magician's cloaks.

Her short black hair was tied together with a red ribbon. She held a silver magic wand in her hand and had a short sword at her waist. She was a little taller than Huihui and had a slender and well-proportioned figure.

...Sorry, I misspoke.

Her breasts were quite full and prominent, not at all asymmetrical. Her face looked rather quiet, the kind of girl who seemed like a good child, or the kind of child everyone admires.

And her signature red eyes seem to say something.

"Hmm?" Huihui, covered in slime, asked casually, "May I ask who you are?"

"Huh? Huh!!!"

The girl seemed surprised.

Seeing that Megumin seemed genuinely to not remember her, she tearfully tried to explain, "It's me! You remember, right? We were in the same grade at the academy in Scarlet Devil Village! Megumin was always first, and I was second! Then, I said I wanted to go out and train until I could use advanced magic...!"

High-level magic.

Indeed, the [Energy Ignition] spell just now was a high-level branch of magic, coupled with her red pupils...

"If I don't give my name, who would recognize me?"

"What...! I... I understand, I'll give you my name."

The girl's body trembled slightly as if she was enduring something. Then, she mustered her courage and made up her mind. She flicked her black cloak behind her, her red eyes suddenly lit up, and she struck a strange pose.

She shouted, "I am Youyou, a Grand Magister, skilled in advanced magic. And I will eventually become an elder of the Crimson Demon Clan!!!"

Just as Kobayashi had expected, she gave her name.

Yu-Yu was probably ashamed of the strange gestures the Crimson Demon Clan made when introducing themselves, and her face turned red, making her afraid to look at the others.

Yes, you're not wrong, Youyou.

It's all because the Red Demon Clan is too immature; you're the normal one.

Looking at Youyou, Huihui introduced her to everyone: "This is her. Her name is Youyou. She is the daughter of the Crimson Demon Clan Chief and will inherit the position of Chief in the future. She is also the person who called herself my rival during our academy days."

"He claimed to be..."

Aqua looked at her with pity.

That expression was clearly saying, "I already know you have no friends and have always been a lonely person."

"Hey, that's so rude!"

Snapped!

Kobayashi slapped the back of her head, making the silly goddess crouch down in pain. At the same time, he introduced himself to the girl in front of him: "I am Kobayashi, a well-known adventurer, and also Megumin's companion. Nice to meet you, Yuuyu."

"Same here. I'm also this guy's companion. Nice to meet you, Yoyo."

Kazuma Sato pointed to Megumin beside him and introduced himself to the other Crimson Demon girl with a smile.

"Eh? Eh???"

Youyou looked quite puzzled and seemed a little timid.

Xiaolin asked curiously, "What's wrong, Youyou?"

Youyou asked cautiously, "Um, Mr. Kobayashi... why didn't you smile when you heard my name... huh?"

Poor baby.

Because of the Red Demon Clan's strange name, he became quite insecure and very cautious when interacting with others.

"Because you are who you are, Youyou. A name is just a label; what matters is the person."

Kobayashi's gentle, neighborly kindness almost brought the only normal person in the Crimson Demon Clan to tears. Heaven knows how many times she had been mocked because of the Crimson Demon Clan's strange name.

“That’s right, that’s right.” Kazuma Sato chimed in, “In this world, there’s another one with a really strange name, but everyone only remembers her as the ‘Crimson Demon Clan Burst Loli with a Problematic Mind’.”

Upon hearing this, Huihui immediately bristled.

She protested loudly, "Hey! Is that me? Are you talking about me? What's with this nickname? Besides, my nickname is 'Phoenix Chick'! Please call me 'Phoenix Chick'!"

"Unfortunately, this nickname is also derogatory."

"What did you say?!"

Kazuma Sato spread his hands, leaving the Explosive Little Loli dumbfounded.

Seeing them joking around, Youyou said with an incredulous and surprised expression, "Oh, I see. It can't be Huihui, you've found a good partner. Now you're a worthy opponent for me!"

Perhaps because no one mocked her, Youyou had a good impression of Xiaolin and the others.

"Speaking of which, how about we go somewhere else?"

"Eh?"

"Look, it's not very convenient to chat standing outside. How about we go to our base?"

"Eh eh eh?"

Youyou seemed flustered by the sudden invitation.

Whether it was because it was the first time she had been invited, or because she had been invited by someone she was meeting for the first time, Xiaolin could tell that she was a little flustered.

Huihui tugged at Xiaolin's clothes.

"Hi, Xiaolin."

"What's wrong, Huihui?"

"What are you planning?"

"That sounds awful. I was just being a good host for you, Huihui. You should thank me, Huihui."

"Do you think I would believe it?"

Xiaolin's malicious smile made Huihui wary, and she felt that he was plotting something bad.

Take a closer look at Youyou in front of you.

"...I see, is that it?"

The little girl's gaze was fixed on her companion's ample chest; in her eyes, the other was indeed a formidable rival.

Since that's the case, we absolutely cannot let her go to the post.

Huihui stepped forward and asked, "Youyou, what exactly did you come here for?"

"Eh, eh?!" Youyou suddenly seemed to come to her senses, then quickly moved away from Huihui and Xiaolin, blaming, "It's all Huihui's fault for pretending to be stupid and saying she didn't know me, that's why things have become so strange."

"What does this have to do with me? Alright, hurry up and tell me why you're here!"

Huihui urged.

Youyou raised her hand, pointed at Huihui, and said, "Huihui, I'm here to settle this with you! As promised, I've learned advanced magic. Come on, let's have a duel!"

"……I do not want."

"Eh----"

Huihui's obvious refusal left Youyou frozen in place.

After all, anyone would be stunned to have their enthusiastic declaration of challenge rejected so ruthlessly.

"Okay, let's go."

Huihui grabbed Xiaolin's arm and turned to walk towards the mansion.

Seeing this, Youyou became extremely anxious and quickly stepped forward to stop her, pleading with a voice on the verge of tears, "Wait, wait a minute, Huihui! Why? We haven't seen each other for so long, why are you being so cold to me? Huihui, please, let's have a showdown!"

Their pitiful appearance made it truly hard to refuse them.

Kobayashi seized the opportunity to advise, "That's right, Huihui. Isn't your family motto to always respond to challenges? Since they've already come to challenge you, what reason is there to refuse?"

At the same time, the corners of his mouth gradually turned up.

Nothing else.

He loves watching girls fight.

"Xiao Lin..."

Huihui glanced at the ill-intentioned Xiaolin, then sighed and said to Youyou, "But I can't use magic anymore today. I've used up all my magic power. Are you planning to use magic to fight me?"

"This, this..."

Youyou looked troubled.

She came to challenge Huihui to a duel, not only to fulfill their agreement, but also primarily to defeat her fair and square.

Taking advantage of someone in distress is certainly not in her nature.

"In that case..."

"Then I will transfer the magic power."

Youyou hesitated for a moment, and was about to refuse when she heard Xiaolin say this, which made Huihui's triumphant smile freeze on her face.
