Sorry, you scumbag woman, you can do whatever you want.

Mebius leaned back in his chair, gently closed his eyes, and silently counted down the seconds in his mind.

There are ten seconds left before returning to the cycle of reincarnation.

With the sound of the door closing, she disappeared from the office, as if her existence had been cut out of the world.

……

……

Reincarnation space.

"Welcome back~" A familiar voice came, and as soon as Mebius opened her eyes, she found the ball of light spinning in front of her.

"How was your vacation?" the golden orb asked, moving closer to Mebius.

"Why do I feel like you've changed a lot?"

“Yes, I… have become weaker.” Mebius clenched his fist and made this judgment.

The light sphere was speechless upon hearing this. It clearly sensed that Mebius had received an epic boost, though it was hard to say exactly how much.

After all, it's really hard to judge someone like Mebius who uses his brain.

Nobody knows what cards these people who use their brains have up their sleeves.

"Don't worry about these trivial matters, take me to see Xiaoyan." Shaking his head, Mebius didn't intend to say anything more about his strength.

Her power has indeed been weakened. After all, in the Reincarnation Space, she has no way to connect with the branches of the Imaginary Tree, which has caused her to lose the power of destiny.

Without the power of destiny, it is only natural that one's strength would be weakened.

However, this was not a disappointment for her.

"Before seeing Homura, Madoka wanted to see you." The golden orb's voice was strange. "She said that no matter what, she had to see you before you entered Madoka's world."

“Okay, go and meet Xiaoyuan.” Möbius agreed readily without any hesitation or doubt, as if he had expected it all along.

"By the way, Xiaoyuan is currently confronting someone." The light sphere seemed to remember something. "I heard it's a lone traveler. When you go over... don't provoke her. That woman is very powerful."

"A lone wolf?" Mebius's eyes showed curiosity. The ball of light shook its body, and his voice became deliberately serious.

"Hmm, I heard it's... for the Crimson Dragon Emperor."

"Do you want to rob it, or do you want to buy it?" Mebius frowned slightly, not entirely surprised that someone had returned to redeem the Crimson Dragon Emperor.

If the offer is right, she will naturally be willing to let the Crimson Dragon Emperor leave.

"Is it coercion or a deal?" the orb of light replied. "It depends on how powerful your backing is. If you're a small group and the leader isn't very capable, then it's probably not a deal."

"So, do I have a strong backer?" Mebius asked with a smile, and the ball of light confidently shook its body.

"Hard, of course it's hard enough!" He was very confident. "Although the reincarnators under my command are not strong, my friends are stronger!"

"You mean... the pink ball?" Mebius asked, causing the light sphere to freeze and mutter a bunch of incomprehensible words.

What do you mean, I have many friends, but they're just pink orbs of light... They are indeed the most powerful among the friends He knows.

However, there are other friends I can ask for help.

Chapter 221

Crossing the Abyss

"Please enjoy." A gentle and serene female voice came, and a warm cup of coffee was placed on the table.

"Thank you, Madoka." Möbius looked down at the frothy coffee, then looked up at Madoka across the table, who was dressed in a white dress and exuded a gentle and pure aura. "Did you call me here for something?"

"Yes, there are quite a few things to do." Xiaoyuan nodded and smiled gently at Mebius. "However, let's deal with the matter of the Crimson Dragon Emperor first."

After saying that, she looked into the empty space to the side.

"If you want to negotiate, then please do so in front of me. After all, as the president of the Magical Girl Association, I also have an obligation to protect everyone in the association."

"Hmph." A slightly dissatisfied snort, and the void was distorted as if something had forcibly squeezed in.

The newcomer was a beautiful girl who looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old. She had long, wavy golden hair, her right eye was covered by a black leather eye patch, she wore a large pointed hat in the style of a shrine maiden, and she was dressed in a black leather outfit that was no different from a bikini.

She has a cold and arrogant demeanor, as if she is above the world and everything is below her.

“Othinus, a being who was already a top-tier powerhouse before entering the cycle of reincarnation, possesses the power to freely shape the world and establish entirely new laws.” Madoka’s voice was gentle as she explained to Mebius, “In her world, Odin… is based on her.”

“I understand.” Mebius maintained his smile, his emerald eyes calm as he met the other man’s gaze.

Both sides found it difficult to see what the other was thinking.

However, Euthinus didn't seem to mind and naturally sat down at the tea table.

Xiao Yuan then poured him a cup of tea.

"What do you want?" Euthinus asked indifferently, as if he could satisfy any request Mebius made.

Of course, there's nothing wrong with saying that; she does indeed possess the ability to create a new world while destroying the old one.

It can make one plus one equal three, make an apple fall upwards, and even bring someone back to life.

Incredible, impossible, impossible to do.

For a demon god who has made leaps and bounds within the cycle of reincarnation, there are very few things he cannot do.

"Anything is fine?" Möbius took a sip of coffee, her voice extremely calm, making it difficult to fathom her thoughts for the morning.

Euthinus nodded slightly upon hearing this, then added, "provided that you can pay a sufficient price."

Her voice was extremely cold.

"A mere small dragon is not worth my much effort."

"And how much is the Crimson Dragon Emperor worth?" Mebius asked curiously. "For someone like you to come here in person, the Crimson Dragon Emperor... his value must be quite high, right?"

“No, he is of no value to me,” Euthinus replied immediately, showing no regard for the Crimson Dragon Emperor.

However, since the Crimson Dragon Emperor was of no value to her.

So, what brought her here?

“…” Mebius frowned slightly, noticing something was amiss, and subconsciously looked at Madoka beside him, hoping to get some information.

However, Xiaoyuan gently shook her head, seemingly knowing some inside information but not intending to reveal it directly.

Looking away, Möbius glanced across at Euthinus, who was quietly sipping his coffee and waiting, and asked him a question.

"So what price can you offer me?"

“I’ll protect you for your next advancement mission,” Othinus offered, but Mebius shook his head, showing little interest in being protected for the next mission.

After all, she already had Xiaoyuan's guarantee, so even if she failed the advancement test, she could be resurrected under Xiaoyuan's protection.

"In addition, I'll let you complete the advancement assessment on your own." Othinus added, which made Mebius look surprised, as if he were asking, "Why can you interfere with the cycle space?"

“Within reasonable limits, as long as you can make limited contact to achieve the ‘seat’, you can do it too,” Othinus explained, his gaze falling on Xiaoyuan. “The woman next to you can do the same thing. Otherwise, why do you think she could exploit the loopholes in the reincarnation space to ensure that you…won’t die even if you fail the advancement test?”

"Why would the Cycle Space allow such interference?" Mebius wondered, but Euthinus had no intention of explaining.

However, Xiaoyuan, who was standing nearby, offered a gentle explanation.

"This can be considered a privilege for the strong, which is something that the Reincarnation Space allows. As long as you have the strength to look directly at the glory of the throne without dying, you can obtain a certain degree of authority and freedom."

"Of course, this doesn't mean you can reserve a seat, just like humans can generate electricity using solar energy, but can't make the sun into a Dyson sphere."

“Understood.” Bius nodded in understanding, then turned to Othinus beside him and asked, “If that’s the case, why don’t I just have Madoka cheat and choose the world with a clear home advantage?”

“She won’t do that,” Euthinus replied bluntly. “That’s just how overly gentle people are.”

“This is good, isn’t it?” Möbius looked tenderly at Madoka drinking coffee beside him and chuckled, “I really like Madoka like this.”

"..." Xiaoyuan blinked, put down her coffee cup, and turned her head away, feeling a little uncomfortable about being flirted with.

Moreover, she was able to sense the truth in what Mebius was saying.

"So, what's your decision?" Euthinus asked expressionlessly, completely unconcerned about Mebius's passive flirting with the girl.

Perhaps, in her eyes, everything was so meaningless.

“That sounds very tempting.” Möbius nodded, then shook his head slightly under Euthinus’s gaze. “However, I’m not very interested in cheating; I’d like something more practical.”

"What do you want?" Euthinus asked, frowning, only to hear an answer that left her speechless.

“Knowledge, the key knowledge that will take me further,” Möbius replied. “Even if it’s just a direction, it doesn’t matter, as long as Xiaoyuan thinks it’s reliable.”

“Just…that?” Euthinus seemed somewhat surprised, only to see Mebius nod affirmatively.

After thinking for a while, she carefully observed Mebius and found that, apart from Lingo, he had gone quite deep into the other paths...

Through biological evolution, life information is constantly being calculated and combined, continuously elevating the level of life.

There is also the path of mechanical ascension, where nanobots coexist with her and can discard her flesh and blood at any time.

There is also the path of the divine.

In short, this woman... no one knows how much research she has done, accumulating a whole bunch of messy paths.

"So, is there any result yet?" Möbius picked up his coffee cup, took a sip, and asked Euthinus with a smile.

She doesn't necessarily have to follow the path Euthinus suggested, but having a reference point is always helpful.
