Do you think this world is serious?

Qi Luoxing sounded somewhat puzzled, but didn't ask over the phone. "Never mind, I'll come over to you first, and we can talk in person."

Chen Xiuming didn't know what Qi Luoxing was wondering about, but he still directly stated his location.

Less than five minutes after hanging up the phone with Qi Luoxing, she rushed to the security booth.

"Qiluo Xing, you don't really need to be in such a hurry."

"I, I know!"

Qi Luoxing was slightly out of breath when she voiced her question, "When the headmistress called me, her voice sounded weak and she was panting—you didn't just get into a fight with her, did you?"

Before Chen Xiuming could speak, Qi Luoxing changed the subject, asking and answering her own question: "But that doesn't make sense either, does it? Fighting in a virtual combat device doesn't cause physical fatigue, while real combat definitely generates magical fluctuations..."

"The headmaster and I had a simple sparring session; we didn't use any magic."

"I see……"

Qi Luoxing nodded in realization. Although she still felt that something was not quite right, now was not the time to delve into such trivial matters.

When are you planning to leave?

"Wait a little longer, Angelia hasn't arrived yet."

"it is good."

Qi Luoxing nodded, then casually found a spot to sit down and rest.

Fulei and Brolo listened quietly, without making a sound to disturb Chen Xiuming and Qiluoxing's conversation.

About three minutes later, the beautiful Angelia arrived at the entrance of the Magical Girl Academy. However, instead of entering the security booth, she gently knocked on the glass window to attract the attention of Chen Xiuming and the others.

"Brother-in-law, I'm here!"

Chen Xiuming nodded slightly, then led Qi Luoxing, Fuleai, and Buluoluo out of the security booth.

Angela immediately moved closer to Chen Xiuming and affectionately took his arm.

Just as she was about to speak, she seemed to have discovered something, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she tiptoed to Chen Xiuming's neck to gently sniff.

"Huh? Brother-in-law, why do you smell like Cecilia?"

Angelia looked surprised, and after a few seconds of thought, she guessed the astonishing truth.

“Cecilia has been staying in the flower shop, so the scent on my brother-in-law could only be coming from the headmistress…”

"Brother-in-law, you wouldn't be... um!"

Before Angelia could finish her sentence, Chen Xiuming physically silenced her by covering her mouth with his hand.

"Let's hurry up and set off—if all goes well, we might be able to get back to Crescent Moon New District before dark."

"it is good."

Although Qiluoxing was very curious about the second half of Angelia's sentence, she did not ask about it at such an important moment.

—Solving the "Demon King" is more important than anything else.

Chapter 115 Demon King: So I was the challenger all along?

Having witnessed the battles between successive "Demon Kings" and magical girls, Remnant Star City can no longer be called a "city" and has been reduced to a desolate ruin. Only the Demon King's Garden and the former "Great Library" of Lasnia remain in their original state.

A car was parked outside Remnant Star City, but did not drive directly into it.

"There are many magical creatures in Remnant Star City, so it's not suitable to continue driving."

Qi Luoxing stepped out of the car first, already holding her "magic wand"—a microphone with an idol-like style.

Using sonic magic often causes a great commotion, which is why Principal Cecilia did not allow Kira Hoshino to participate in the investigation of the "Demon King's" whereabouts.

The moment Freya and Brolo stepped out of the car, they had already taken on their magical girl forms.

The former magical girl's outfit is a blue-black "formal dress," which gives her a refined and elegant air, creating a contrast between her appearance during battles and her formal attire and her role as a socialite at a banquet.

In contrast, the latter magical girl costume appears more simple, with the main color being dark purple, and only a light gray-white hue appearing at the hem as a contrast. While looking simple, it also highlights the elements of a magical girl.

It's worth mentioning that Freya's magical girl outfit is full of "music" elements. Even the leg ring on her right thigh has been replaced with a musical staff, and the huge chain claw that appears on her side looks like it has evolved from a harp.

It's puzzling that despite the fact that Freya's clothes contain many "musical" elements, she herself doesn't seem to have much interest in music.

In contrast, Kira's magical girl outfit is a standard and glamorous idol-style dress.

"Xiu Ming, what should we do next?"

Freya carried a massive, black scythe taller than herself in one hand, making her look dangerous and manic.

Qi Luoxing held the microphone, looking eager to try.

Since she began learning to sing from Maria, she has never tried using her current vocal range to fight with musical magic.

Angelia looked at Chen Xiuming with a smile, having already released Honkai energy and shaped it into a bow and arrow.

Chen Xiuming gestured for the girls to calm down, then glanced at Kiana, who was standing on the roof of the car gazing at the Demon King's Garden. He then immersed his mind in the World Bubble within his body, bringing his dazed Alaya Consciousness out of the World Bubble.

"The Alaya consciousness is awaiting your command, Lord Chen Xiuming."

Alaya consciousness always has a blank expression, but Chen Xiuming can tell her mood from the wings at her waist.

For example, right now, the feathers around her waist are fluttering slightly, clearly indicating that she is in a very pleasant and happy mood.

"Alaya-vijnana, can you use wide-range detection magic?"

"The order has been accepted. Alaya consciousness will release a super-level magic targeting this city to detect all creatures with Honkai energy reactions."

Although Chen Xiuming did not explain in detail, the Alaya consciousness instantly understood Chen Xiuming's thoughts and immediately took action.

She opened her right hand, and a series of magical spells connected and intertwined, forming a massive magic circle.

Immediately, the magic circle formed by the transcendental magic rose from the right hand of the Alaya consciousness, and at the same time expanded with the wind, transforming into a giant magic circle that enveloped the entire Remnant Star City in a few breaths.

Even probing-oriented super-level magic emits a Honkai energy reaction equivalent to that of attack-oriented super-level magic.

Under this transcendental magic, all the magical creatures hidden throughout Remnant Star City were exposed, their exact locations revealed by Alaya consciousness.

Looking at the giant magic circle that filled the sky, even a magical creature without any intelligence could feel the threat of death, let alone the "Demon King" hiding in the City of Broken Stars.

Feeling the terrifying Honkai energy fluctuations emanating from the super-level magic, the "Demon King" turned pale with fright.

This, isn't this right?

There was nothing so outrageous when the previous "Demon King" was born, so why is it that this generation of "Demon King" has to face something so outrageous?

The Demon King was completely baffled, unable to understand how the magic enveloping Remnant Star City was formed.

Leaving aside how this magic came about, the terrifying Honkai energy it contains is something that humans could not possibly possess.

No matter how incredible the magic may be, it is impossible to create Honkai energy out of thin air.

If that thing in the sky were to land in Remnant Star City, it could raze the city to the ground, leaving not a trace of the city at all.

At this moment, the "Demon King" has a feeling of being "pitiful, weak and innocent", as if she is the "challenger" who is facing the Demon King.

The "Demon King" desperately wanted to escape from Remnant Star City and hide far away, but he dared not make any rash moves, fearing that any rash actions would cause the super-level magic enveloping Remnant Star City to directly bombard it.

……

"The location of the individual 'Demon King' has been confirmed. The Alaya Consciousness awaits your further instructions."

Before he finished speaking, a new transcendental magic appeared in Alaya consciousness's left hand, forming a virtual screen that resembled a projection, displaying a detailed map of Remnant Star City, and marking the exact location of the "Demon King" on the map with dots of light.

The "Demon King" did not hide in the Demon King's Courtyard, but instead hid in the Lasnia Library.

Chen Xiuming did not allow the Alaya consciousness to attack the "Demon King".

With the power of super-level magic, let alone the "Demon King," even the Remnant Star City would disappear directly from the map.

Even the Miracle Stone within the Demon King's body might shatter and disappear as a result.

The Miracle Stone is crucial to the future development of the magical girl world, so it cannot be lost.

"The order has been confirmed; the charging of super-level magic will be cancelled."

The moment Alaya consciousness finished speaking, the super-level magic that enveloped the entire Remnant Star City gradually dimmed, and the Honkai energy reaction it emitted decreased sharply.

Although the Honkai energy reaction is still terrifying, it's not enough to give the impression that the entire Remnant Star City will be razed to the ground.

—The power of this super-level magic after canceling its charging is probably only enough to make half of the Remnant Star City disappear completely from the map.

Chen Xiuming looked at Kiana, who was standing on top of the car, and murmured, "Kiana, lend me a hand."

Kiana withdrew her gaze from the Demon King's courtyard and turned to look at Chen Xiuming, simply saying "Okay."

Then, she quietly appeared behind Chen Xiuming, hugging him from behind while lending him her strength.

As his physique strengthens and the amount of Honkai energy within him increases, Chen Xiuming can also withstand more of the power of the end.

Although it was still insignificant to Kiana, she would lend him her power to the maximum extent whenever Chen Xiuming asked.

At least at times like these, Chen Xiuming would completely transform into her shape.

The [Saintess Power] within Chen Xiuming resonated with the End Power borrowed from End Kiana, causing golden patterns resembling wings to vaguely appear behind him, their shape identical to the golden patterns behind End Kiana.

Kiana glanced at the faint golden patterns behind Chen Xiuming, lost in thought, seemingly pondering something.

Then, with a thought, the golden patterns behind the two of them quietly overlapped.

Strictly speaking, it was her golden patterns that covered Chen Xiuming's golden patterns.

Although no extraordinary phenomena occurred, Chen Xiuming and Qiyana could both feel that their connection had become very close, with a wonderful feeling of water and water merging together.

The next moment, Kiana, carrying Chen Xiuming, suddenly appeared in front of the "Demon King" after traversing a long distance.

Before the "Demon King" could react, the power of the end suddenly erupted, instantly stripping the "Miracle Stone" from the "Demon King's" body.

With the Miracle Stone stripped away, the Demon King could no longer maintain his existence and vanished into a gentle breeze.

The gentle breeze that the "Demon King" had vanished into brushed past Chen Xiuming's ear, conveying a soft whisper full of gratitude.

"Thank you for freeing me..."

"The tragic cycle of magical girls ends with me; this is the best outcome..."
