My wife is a magical girl, how can I be the villain?

Chapter 157 Killing the Bishop

Bai Zhe stood up, pulled a black sword from the white card in his hand, cleaved through the crystal wall in front of him with a single strike, and slowly walked off the stage toward the theater exit.

The doppelganger "Bai Zhe," kneeling on the ground, closed his eyes completely after uttering his last words. His body was utterly shattered by the foreign substance that had invaded it, turning into a chaotic vortex of magic and foreign matter, and disappearing into the air.

"How did you find out?" The bishop did not deny it. He had used all his tricks and watched Bai Zhe walk towards him step by step, but he was not flustered at all.

"The card cut open your brain, chest, and cervical spine—and with the help of the alien's repair ability, your mind and even your soul should have been completely shattered, but you weren't."

Bai Zhe walked up to the bishop, extending his four-foot-long black sword. "This body is no longer human; at least the soul of the bishop is no longer here."

"Hahahaha—the doppelganger is powerful, but my [host body] is far superior to your magic. This body will just be for your amusement; it's been quite enjoyable!"

The bald bishop laughed wildly, his aged face twitching uncontrollably, as if he would collapse if he continued laughing.

"I was hoping to steal one last time, maybe I could kill Wu Ye in Tianhai City—" The bald bishop shook his head.

"You know this is impossible. No matter how much you belittle magic, you, all of you, all sinners fallen into the void, are only filled with resentment because you cannot use magic."

Bai Zhe gently raised the tip of his sword and lightly brushed it against the bishop's neck. "Even at times like this, you still have to use your sharp tongue."

"Say what you will—hehe." The bishop composed himself and said no more, seemingly willing to submit to execution.

"Let me think—the alien substance can fuse with flesh and blood, and you have left Guangxian City after parasitizing the new body."

"So what if it is?"

"The journey to the north is long, and Tianhai City is also up there. Did your sect go to Fangzhou City?" Although Bai Zhe asked a question, his tone was already very certain.

"Are you still planning to travel thousands of miles to Fangzhou to chase after me?" The bishop didn't deny it, but instead looked at her with a smile, "Then there will be another missing magical girl."

"You think Fangzhou City is weak?" Bai Zhe asked noncommittally.

"————" The bishop did not speak.

"It's been years since I've been there. It's such a hassle for magical girls to go on business trips—approvals, reports, maintaining bilateral relations—" Bai Zhe rarely showed the kind of complaints that came with his age, then his tone changed, "But there's a mage there, you know!"

"Heh heh—many mages descended during the Void Invasion in 21 years ago, but they left within the first two years. Miss Bai Zhe, have you been sleeping all this time?" the bishop said sarcastically.

"Who said they all left? The one in Fangzhou City is still here. I remember it was Yi Kui Xing Pen?" Bai Zhe spread his hands and shrugged. "Go ahead if you want. I was actually considering chasing after you, after all, you stabbed me—but it seems unnecessary now."

She looked at the bloodstains on her clothes; the wound had been brought under control by the healing technique.

The bishop looked at Bai Zhe with an uncertain expression, his brow furrowing slightly as he "read" the truth of what the girl was saying.

Have a safe journey.

Bai Zhe said no more, waved his hand with confidence, and with a light flick of his wrist, the hand holding the black sword severed the bishop's throat.

But this body had no vital organs to begin with. The alien material instantly repaired the damage to the joints, and the bishop's body instantly turned into a lump of mud that barely resembled a human. He swam along the ground toward the crystal wall on the stage, intending to merge with all the alien material.

Bai Zhe turned around, swung his sword like a spear, and threw it with all his might. It pierced the bishop's back and embedded itself in the black crystal wall.

The crystal wall "extended" countless tentacles, trying to embrace the bishop's body, while cards fell from the sky, slicing through them.

Five black and white cards severed all the tentacles, completely isolating the bishop's body from the crystal wall, leaving only a final gap behind him.

"Maricus Black Sword: Heartbreaker!"

As a spell from the magic book shot into the black sword, a torrent of magic exploded from the bishop's chest, blasting countless dense strands of alien matter onto the five cards, turning them into "solidified patterns."

"Bang—Bang! Bang!"

The black sword continued to explode, attempting to return to its body. The alien matter that was re-coexisting was blasted into pieces, which then struck the larger "box" that enveloped the entire theater.

The spell continued to explode for a minute, and any trace of foreign matter was sucked into the card and could no longer be fused together. Only then did Bai Zhe stop, lowering his head and breathing slightly.

The spell, which lasted for a minute, was consuming her magic power at a high intensity. Her silver-white hair clung to her delicate face, and her icy cheeks were now burning hot.

The magical power input from the projection outside the Demonic Realm was far less than the magical power she consumed; she had overdrawn her energy.

"Now—it's all cleaned up. I don't want him to end up like me, swapping bodies and escaping in the end."

Bai Zhe shook her head. She understood very well how troublesome the parasitic ability was. If it could not be completely "cleaned up", the alien substance's erosion and "brainwashing" of ordinary people would cause endless harm to Guangxian City.

She came here determined to wipe out all the symbiotes in the city.

Aside from the endless Void Beasts, nothing from the Void should be seen on any human being!

"Sister Bai Zhe! How are you?"

"Sister Bai Zhe?!"

"You're injured—"

Back on the ground of the park, several magical girls stood outside, eagerly waiting. Upon seeing Bai Zhe emerge, the eight girls rushed to his side, offering their concern.

"It's alright now. All the symbiotes in Guangxian City are dead. Although some remnants have escaped to other cities, they won't be around for much longer."

Bai Zhe gently patted each girl's head in turn, and the magical girls who were touched wiggled excitedly.

They were too excited, Bai Zhe thought. Some girls closed their eyes contentedly, while others looked bewildered. Several of the girls had bloodshot eyes, clearly having been blinded by rage just moments before.

Never before have they unleashed their anger and vented their instincts so freely. Under Bai Zhe's guidance, these magical girls, these innocent and naive girls, have opened a new door. What will this city become? Bai Zhe's lips curled up involuntarily.

"Sister Bai Zhe, are you happy?"

"Yes, this trip was great, much more fun than Tianhai City." She began to seriously consider whether to postpone her return.

But it would be difficult to explain to my companions if I didn't go back. Or, should I go to Fangzhou City for a visit?

Outside the border of Fangzhou City, several mountains envelop this emerging city. The mountains are covered with dense magical defense devices, which block the unnecessary agitation of the Void Beasts and also block the sinners from the darkness.

A beast-shaped phantom stopped outside the scanning range of the defensive device. A person jumped off the phantom, shook off the dust-covered robe, and pulled down the long hood to reveal a shiny bald head.

If you look closely, you can see that there are still some marks on the gray-robed man's head, as if he had just shaved off his hair.

"The Kui Xing Pen—the Kui Xing Pen—I want to see if Bai Zhe is lying to me."

The man stepped forward, muttering softly, and entered the sweeping area. The virtual beast behind him left on its own.

In the silent night, apart from the eerie squeaks of the virtual beast, only his murmurs remained.

"The Kui Xing Brush—what brush? Hmm—first, find the altar—"
