Regarding the fact that my best friend is a magical girl

So it's my fault?

Aldebaran, however, continued speaking to himself.

"Besides, he hasn't even shown his true power yet. I advise you not to underestimate your enemy... He's not on the same level as any of the monsters you've encountered before!"

boom--

The oil monster was kicked into the condensed phosphorus of the blazing sun, and the violent explosion blasted the glittering, beautiful boy into the sky.

However, he landed without any major problems, even landing steadily on both feet, and then continued his journey.

"You're too tough! And why are you only targeting me?"

The explosion just now almost made me deaf.

"Miluno, it's not oil anymore, it's rubber!"

It's made of rubber, so it has high resistance to impacts and blows. Therefore…

"So what about this move!"

The oil freak who didn't care how much he was beaten was now cut in half at the waist by my short sword.

As expected, the cutting was effective.

But there was no flesh or bone visible in the cross-section of his waist; he was a complete rubber man.

"puff--"

Aldebaran laughed out loud when his "product" fell to the ground in two pieces.

"I told you long ago, he hasn't shown his true strength yet..."

After a brief pause, a new torso began to grow rapidly from the severed part of the monster.

"...That's his true nature!"

The monster turned into two.

If it continues to be cut, it can continue to regenerate, thus becoming even more.

"Yang Yan, can you burn him to ashes?"

Yang Yan had a scar on her throat, clearly indicating that her throat had been injured, but Falcon explained for her, "No! That thing can't be burned. We tried it before you came!"

"Back then it was oil, but its nature has changed now."

however……

One of the parts that split apart miraculously reverted to its original black and sticky petroleum form.

It crawled towards Yang Yan in a bizarre posture, startling the latter so much that a gust of wind blew it into the air.

As Yang Yan once said, petroleum is very durable in its burning state.

Although it acts like a mad dog, it still retains some combat intelligence.

The Golden Witch smiled smugly to the side.

After covering Yang Yan with a protective film, Seruno reminded him, "This guy has nothing inside him, not even a brain. I'm afraid even if you blow his head off, it won't be fatal to him."

Is it essentially something like a slime?

"Tsk, wouldn't that make you invincible?"

Seruno, however, disagreed: "No! Miluno, every monster has an absolute weakness!"

Although the answer was not given.

But I also understood what she meant.

"...A pseudo-factor?"

"That's right, he definitely has a pseudo-factor in his body, which is the source of the monster's power. As long as that is destroyed, he's finished!"

"But how can I..."

As I fend off the counterattack of the canine (rabid) rubber boy, I ask.

"...Find his pseudo-factor?"

It's not like Sirius, which can see through things with a blink of an eye. Finding the pseudo-factor without being able to cut into the other party is simply a pipe dream.

Besides, Aldebaran was eavesdropping on our conversation, yet she still seemed completely at ease; perhaps there was some kind of insurance involved.

“I have a way to find… no, I should say sense the pseudo-factor… Milno, please come over here!”

She reached out her hand to me with her uninjured arm.

I stomped the handsome boy to the ground, pinned him to the park's stone pavement from behind with my short sword, and then quickly flashed back to Seruno's side.

What do you need to do?

She took my hand and wrapped us in bubble wrap.

"Accelerate, thirty times."

I did it before she even said anything.

The view outside the bubble wrap began to freeze. Serino gripped my hand tightly and carefully approached the oil-loving boy, who was also slowed down. With the slowdown, his struggles were insignificant and posed no great threat; he couldn't even make contact with us.

"Sure enough, the simulated factor also contains that energy; I can feel it..."

Seruno muttered to herself, her brows furrowed.

"However, this strange body actually has... two mimicry factors?"

Chapter 46 Gold VS Gold

(Sun Yao)

No wonder it has such an exaggerated regenerative ability, and is also tough, thick-skinned, and highly fire-resistant.

It turns out to be a dual-core processor.

I have never seen such a strange person before. Even if I go through the association's files on strange people to date, I have never seen such a freak with two pseudo-factors. This is obviously the result of Aldebaran's forced modification.

Is this the power of the eccentric head of the development department?

But it's okay.

The things that need to be done remain unchanged.

"Miluno, could you lend me your other sword? I can sense the location of the pseudo-factor; all I need to do is break that one."

Without asking any further questions, Miluno handed me another short sword.

He simply told her, "Be careful."

"Yes, I'm fine."

Although the strange figure on the ground has the appearance of a human boy, it is essentially just a large plastic figurine, all show and no substance.

puff-

The short sword, inside the strange man's body, accurately pierced the simulated factor based on its senses.

Broken.

But it's not over yet.

I quickly drew my short sword and stabbed the second pseudo-factor, which shattered instantly.

"Phew, all done."

That's too easy.

I feel like I can understand why Milno is always so at ease in battle.

The oil freak who used to be like a mad dog now looks like a sloth crawling around in my eyes. So what battle is difficult now?

Milno decelerated, and the oil-rich boy vanished like smoke in a flash of light...

"wrong."

All these light particles flew towards the clone entangled with Yang Yan, and after merging again, the dazzlingly beautiful boy reappeared.

"No way? It's still alive?"

Miluno was much calmer than I was.

“There are more than two. Yang Yan also has similar factors, but it's not a big problem... Although he's crazy, he's not particularly fast. Just smash the rest.”

"Really? That's what Morning Star thinks?"

Aldebaran, however, seemed to be gloating and said, "I'll tell you the rules of the game! This weirdo has three pseudo-factors, but if they are not destroyed at the same time, the pseudo-factors that were destroyed will re-coagulate."

Manic, strong, and capable of rapid regeneration.

The three-core mimicry factor brings a huge boost. Although it doesn't have any fancy abilities, this immortality is a tricky thing to do.

"I thought you had some trump card."

Milno was unimpressed by Aldebaran's smugness.

"So, as long as we're fast enough to break the remaining two before the first pseudo-factor re-coalesces, this psychopath won't be able to keep up, right?"

"Theoretically, that's true, but re-coalescing can happen in the blink of an eye. Can you do it?"

"Then I'll show you just how long your blink of an eye is to me..."

Miluno glanced at me.

I replied, "Miss Miluno, please speed it up to forty times. I'll take care of it before it completely cracks!"

Picking up Miss Milno's twin swords from the ground, I walked toward the strange man with my eyes closed.

When the five senses are blocked, when everything is plunged into darkness, the presence of that energy becomes even clearer...

"Well."

A chunk of flesh was torn off his right arm by Aldebaran's golden arrow, and it was excruciatingly painful just to lift it up.

But heroes cannot desert their posts!

With both swords drawn simultaneously, they shattered the two clusters of condensed dark energy. Pressing their advantage, they twisted the swords within the monster's body, aiming for the last pseudo-factor...
