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

“…Okay.” Xiaoyuan hesitated slightly before agreeing. She wasn’t worried that Sakura Kyoko would harm Homura, since Mr. Mebius was right next to Homura.

So, Sakura Kyoko followed three ordinary human girls to Mebius's residence, hoping to meet Akemi Homura.

The door opened, and everyone came in.

The atmosphere was stagnant.

"..." Sakura Kyoko remained silent, staring at Tomoe Mami, who was in the living room holding a mop and dressed in Seulgi's maid outfit, feeling as if she had been hit hard on the head.

"What exactly happened to turn you into this?" Actually, she had known Mami Tomoe for a long time, and they used to be very close. However, some things happened later that caused their relationship to break down.

However, what is Mami Tomoe doing now?

She's a maid, sweeping the living room with a mop, wearing a shameful and erotic maid outfit that makes you want to commit a crime immediately.

Mami Tomoe didn't want to speak. Looking at Kyoko Sakura, whose pupils were wide open in shock, her pretty face flushed slightly. She knew how suggestive her maid outfit was.

No… to be more precise, the erotic outfit she was wearing was incredibly provocative, but there was nothing she could do about it; it was all because Lord Mebius insisted she wear it.

"Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with?" She lowered her eyes slightly, but quickly regained her composure and smiled at her former apprentice, Sakura Kyoko. "My name is Asami, and I am Lord Mebius's personal maid."

"Don't think I won't recognize you just because you saved a word." Sakura Kyoko couldn't help but shout out, but Tomoe Mami just tilted her head.

"Please don't make things difficult for an ordinary maid." She lowered her head and casually mopped the floor, but she was moving towards the backyard.

They're running away... no, they're hiding.

"Where exactly is flat?!" Sakura Kyoko quickened her pace and came up to Tomoe Mami, her gaze falling on Mami's enormous breasts, which were larger than most people's, before she looked up to meet Tomoe Mami's gaze.

"I have your bullet inside me."

"..." Mami Tomoe turned around, only to see Kyoko Sakura standing in front of her again, still staring at her firmly, clearly not willing to give up.

However, this is quite normal. Anyone who has been shot several times and almost died would not easily swallow their anger.

"Excuse me, is there any conflict between Mami Tomoe and Kyoko?" Madoka walked over and asked Mami Tomoe and Kyoko Sakura.

Sayaka and Hitomi, who followed, also cast curious glances their way.

“There is indeed a conflict.” Mami Tomoe closed her eyes slightly, sighed deeply, and a sad expression appeared on her pretty face. “I want to eliminate all magical girls… no, I want to cut off the tragic fate of magical girls becoming witches.”

She raised her hand and gently placed it on her chest.

“Magical girls… no matter how powerful they are, they cannot escape the fate of eventually becoming witches. Therefore, I want to stop all magical girls from becoming witches and make them all become ordinary people.”

"How can a magical girl turn into a witch?" Sakura Kyoko asked solemnly, only to see Tomoe Mami sigh softly.

“If it were you, you would probably be prepared to accept the truth.” She placed the mop against the wall and then turned to walk towards the living room sofa.

After everyone sat down, he patiently explained the truth to them, from why Kyubey created magical girls to what kind of tragedy the magical girls would ultimately face.

Finally, she explained her reasons for taking action: in order to prevent the magical girls of this world from heading towards the final tragedy, it was necessary to make the magical girls... turn back into ordinary humans.

In this process, Mami Tomoe recounts many cases, from the beginnings of human civilization to the present day.

Those countless bloody tragedies are suffocating.

"Is this the truth about magical girls?" Sakura Kyoko leaned back on the sofa, looking up at the ceiling, her rosy hair cascading down her shoulders, looking somewhat lost.

“But if Kyubey isn’t dealt with… the birth of magical girls will never end.” She asked Mami Tomoe, “Why not just address the root cause of the problem?”

"Do you think we can do it?" Mami Tomoe asked, her eyes lowered and her voice filled with disappointment, leaving Kyoko Sakura speechless.

Yes, even if they know the real culprit behind it all, and they know Kyubey's target, they still can't cause Kyubey any real harm.

All I can do is... save them one by one.

Standing nearby, Madoka looked at the two who were lost and filled with despair, unable to offer any words of comfort. She now deeply understood that magical girls... were a dead end.

If only we could change the fate of magical girls and prevent everyone from becoming witches.

The thought crossed her mind, but she quickly dismissed it. She was just an ordinary person; how could she possibly eliminate all the witches?

However, if... if... using Kyubey's wish mechanism, one could wish to eliminate all witches before their birth, all witches of the universe, past and future.

If we could do that, wouldn't we be able to avoid this tragedy?

The atmosphere in the living room was silent and oppressive.

After learning the truth, Sakura Kyoko also lost the idea of ​​causing trouble for Tomoe Mami. She could already see the hopeless future that Tomoe Mami would ultimately face after constantly trying to save her.

If left unattended, Mami Tomoe will eventually break down on her own.

Sayaka, Hitomi, and Madoka were also feeling very heavy-hearted. The stark reality laid out before them in such a suffocating way left them...confused and disoriented.

I want to help, I want to make a change, but I feel powerless.

……

...

into the night.

Möbius leaned against the headboard and asked Mami Tomoe, who was standing by the bedside, "Did you tell them everything?"

"Yes, I told you everything." Mami Tomoe looked guilty, feeling deeply ashamed of her actions.

However, the chains of tragedy cannot be broken without doing so.

“Madoka is a child, a gentle child, a child… with the qualities of a saint, no, or even a god.” Möbius’s voice was calm, making Mami Tomoe, who was standing beside him, feel a chill run down her spine, but she listened patiently.

"You know, to change the underlying logic of this world, you must have enough power to succeed."

"...Does it have to be Madoka?" Mami Tomoe asked. She didn't want Madoka Kaname to lose the happiness of an ordinary person, nor did she want Madoka Kaname to disappear from this world.

Mebius simply responded with a gentle smile.

"If you have a better way, of course you can tell Xiaoyuan the truth and tell her not to make a wish. You can do whatever you want."

“If Madoka is truly such a kind person, then… even if she knew the truth, the choice she made… would only have brought forward the time she made her wish, right?” Mami Tomoe closed her eyes.

“That’s right,” Möbius replied with a smile. “It’s Madoka’s personality; possessing such great love, she wouldn’t refuse to save the world.”

"That means I can no longer stop it." Mami seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, as if she had been freed.

In fact, Sakura Kyoko's encounter with Madoka and the others was part of the plan. Their arrival here, their questioning of her, and her recounting of the tragic history of magical girls were all intended to expose Madoka to the truth of this world and thus give rise to a corresponding wish.

As for why he didn't just tell Xiaoyuan directly and let her make a wish... perhaps this was because Möbius considered the difference between voluntary and forced.

Only by arriving at the answer through your own thinking will your ideas and beliefs become more steadfast.

Chapter 228

Little Flame, it's cold~

“That’s right, it’s not your fault.” Möbius smiled gently at Mami Tomoe, who was standing by the bedside. “All the mistakes are my and Kyubey’s fault.”

At this point, she gently patted the pillow beside the bed.

"Next, I'm going to threaten you into sleeping next to me and becoming my body pillow. If you dare to refuse, I'll punish you severely."

“Yes.” Mami Tomoe agreed. She did not blame all the mistakes on Möbius. She was aware of the entire process of the plan, and Möbius did not force her in any way.

So, she was actually Möbius's...accomplice.

"However, Lord Mebius, please allow me to change my clothes." She crossed her arms and looked somewhat embarrassed, feeling very ashamed to be wearing such a Seulgi maid outfit.

however.

“No, I like it this way.” With a smile, Möbius brooked no refusal, gently patting the pillow beside the bed as he watched Mami Tomoe climb onto the bed, feeling ashamed yet helpless.

The lights suddenly went out.

……

...

at the same time.

"...Madoka, do you want to become a magical girl?" Kyubey squatted by the window, its tail swaying gently, and looked at Madoka Kaname, who was wearing pajamas and looked surprised, and extended an invitation.

"Whatever the wish, it's..."

Not finished yet.

"Bang!" A gunshot rang out, and Kyubey fell straight to the ground, crashing into Madoka Kaname's room, the spreading blood staining the floor red.

Then, a pair of legs wrapped in black stockings stood in the place that originally belonged to Kyubey. Following the long, beautiful legs upwards, a girl with long black hair and a cold and aloof temperament was seen holding a pistol in one hand and holding the top of the window with the other.

"I'm sorry, Madoka...did I scare you?" she asked softly to Madoka Kaname, a hint of warmth appearing in her cool black eyes.

Perhaps only in front of Madoka Kaname does she not appear aloof and unapproachable to others.

"It's nothing." Madoka Kaname shook her head gently and subconsciously took a step back. She had already realized the danger of Kyubey. After all, Homura had told her how wicked Kyubey was, and how terrible the consequences were when she signed a contract with Kyubey in other timelines.

So, my immediate reaction upon seeing Kyubey was... fraud.

"Regardless of what Kyubey says to you." Homura Akemi stepped out the window, picked up Kyubey's body, and then turned to leave.

However, when she turned around, she found a Cupid standing on the window.

"Homura Akemi, we're partners, right?" Kyubey asked calmly, its tail swaying slightly. "Are you planning to sabotage our partnership?"

“That was your collaboration with Möbius,” Homura Akemi replied coldly, but Kyubey jumped down from the window and came to Homura Akemi’s side, asking her in a calm voice.
