Regarding the fact that my best friend is a magical girl

I don't understand, but it should mean yes.

An impact of this scale is definitely unstoppable.

Therefore, I did not completely block all the darkness, but on the premise of ensuring that the bubble would not be destroyed. The first layer of shield only blocked a small part, the second layer blocked another part, and so on, layer by layer.

Finally, the black mud, buffered by the ninth layer of bubbles in front of her, was absorbed by Michelle.

Although the pressure was considerable, the plan went relatively smoothly, which is the result I wanted.

If the black mud rushes in all at once, my bubble absolutely cannot withstand it. Once the bubble bursts, we will have no choice but to retreat back into the Earth's crystal.

But doing so would only buy time. Sooner or later, Michelle, who was surrounding them, would surround the Earth Crystal just like she did with Miluno.

Therefore, by using the buffer to buy time, my bubbles are like the filter paper of espresso. Although they cannot completely block out the darkness, they allow it to slowly seep in and become Michelle's meal.

At this very moment, the absorption device in the new world is still supplying large amounts of darkness to Michelle's side, and with the black mud surging in from the third room, such a large amount of darkness being continuously absorbed is clearly a good thing, but it makes one worry whether she will overeat...

Michelle must protect her mother!

He's still in good spirits, so there's nothing to worry about.

It can speak and seems to have the mental capacity of a three- or four-year-old child.

She is a very special child. Although she is a "god" born from negative emotions, she has a lively and cheerful personality and likes to be mischievous.

She embodies all the typical personality traits a child should have...

But perhaps it's not that special.

Because it is a god, it can resist the influence of negative emotions.

But the negative emotions still linger. Having witnessed so much malice, it's impossible for her to be innocent and naive. That childlike personality is a mask she wore to reassure us.

His facial features came to light, and his expression was tense.

"Michelle, you need to take responsibility!"

She is not a real person.

Our way of thinking differs from that of humans, so the logic behind some of our actions may seem incomprehensible to us.

But she is indeed the child of the agent and Miluno.

This feeling for my parents is something no one can deny...

Miluno climbed to her side and supported her from behind.

"Michelle... wants the best ending!"

Like a shadow, she gradually gained color.

Chapter 503 Mutual Fighting

(Cerunno)

Through a multi-pronged approach to feeding, Michelle demonstrated a clear sense of self-will.

How old is the child now?

I don't know, but she clearly understands the current situation.

Still standing in front of Miluno, she exclaimed in a childish voice, "Everyone has done so much for Michelle! Michelle wants to repay everyone... Michelle will turn things around and show everyone!"

The familiar white-haired, dark-skinned little devil, Michelle is back.

"Auntie, I want to go out!"

She was full of energy and even wanted to go out and face the black mud head-on...

But I won't allow her to do that.

"You are not yet another version of yourself."

According to Miss Terra's calculations, she would still be absorbed even if she went out now.

"No! I'm not like her! She may be like me back then, but she can never be 'Michelle'... because she doesn't have a mom and dad!"

The child was speaking very seriously, and it sounded like he was swearing.

Michelle passed through my defensive bubble. She stood outside the bubble on the ninth floor, absorbed all the darkness filtered through the eighth floor, and after confirming that she was unharmed, she stepped forward to the eighth floor.

She was gradually adapting to another Michelle offensive. Her previous absorption was far from her limit, but once she exceeded a certain threshold, the absorption and being absorbed would reverse.

Therefore, exploring the upper limit step by step like this is indeed the right choice.

Miluno stood in front of the bubble on the ninth floor, watching Michelle. Although they were not related by blood, they were indeed mother and daughter in name only. What were Miluno's feelings as she watched her daughter leave?

boom--

"It's broken?!"

The focused beam of darkness pierced through the first layer of defensive bubbles.

Unable to tolerate being taken advantage of continuously, Michelle began to launch a more targeted counterattack, using crystals compressed from black mud to form a drill.

Then, the second layer of bubbles was also punctured.

This situation is not good; are we about to lose control?

"Michelle, come back first, just to be safe!!"

The little girl not only didn't back down, but she also bravely passed through the eighth layer of bubbles.

Michelle must stay here and protect Mom!

This girl is incredibly stubborn. I looked at Miluno and urged her on.

"Miluno, as her mother, you should also try to persuade her!"

Miluno, however, refused.

“It’s okay. I believe Michelle can do it. I will save her if she is in danger, so let her give it a try.”

Is she a parent who lets her child explore on their own?

I suddenly felt a little envious of the agent. Although they weren't a real couple, she did have an experience that I didn't have.

The third bubble was broken, and Michelle passed through the seventh bubble.

"Can that child handle it?"

We'll be meeting soon.

Michelle is absorbing the darkness with all her might, and in a short time, she has increased her age to that of a twelve or thirteen-year-old.

"She is still growing, very rapidly... not only absorbing darkness, but also making the dark side of the Great Will submit to her again, even though she is not yet as large as that false god born from human malice."

A false god?

That was a deity recreated from negative beliefs by Earth Crystal; describing Michelle as a "false god" is truly apt.

"Are we just going to stand here and watch?"

Miluno, her eyes fixed on Michelle, replied with her back to me, "Your bubbles can no longer stop Michelle."

"That was only my power. Earth Crystal still has reserves. As long as we join forces..."

Michelle made contact with the "false god".

The "false god" who emerged from the black mud pounced on Michelle, and Michelle resisted by pressing down on his shoulders. The two Michelles then began to fight in a chaotic manner.

It's worth mentioning that the surrounding black mud did not continue to destroy the bubbles, nor did it participate in their fight; it even created space for them to fight each other to their hearts' content.

"This is……"

I hadn't expected this at all, and Miluno shrugged.

"Yeah, that was a really ugly fight."

It felt like a fight between middle school girls, with both sides throwing wild, uncontrolled punches.

"Oh dear, how did things turn out like this?"

This is, after all, a battle to determine who will be the "administrator" of the throne, and now the menacing black mud is surging in...

In the end, it was just the two Michelles punching each other.

Although each punch was accompanied by a whooshing sound, and it felt like you could see the shockwaves when it hit you, no matter how exciting hand-to-hand combat is, it's still just hand-to-hand combat. Besides, the two of them didn't have any skills; they were just using brute force.

They're all gods, yet they still have to fight hand-to-hand. Who do they resemble?

I glanced at Miluno; the answer was quite obvious.

"Aren't you going to help?" I asked.

"No, but if we rush in, those black mud will attack us."

Miluno shook her head and explained, "To the dark side of the Great Will, both Michelles are its units of thought, and they have equal powers, so these black muds will not attack either of them on their own initiative... but that doesn't mean they won't attack you and me."

"They can only fight on their own, which is fair in a way."

But Michelle's power is not as great as that "false god". It will not be easy for her to defeat him on her own. I must find a way to support Michelle.

"Girl, catch this!"

Milno threw out something shiny.

Dark gold...

It is the Morning Star Crystal.

The Star Crystal passed through the barrier and was caught in Michelle's hand.

"You know what to do, right?"

When Miluno asked this, Michelle nodded and exclaimed, "Time-freezeeee!!"

The next instant, the "false god" was trampled to the ground by Michelle.

Milno threw out the Morning Star Crystal, and the little girl even borrowed Milno's move.

"You won?"

"No, fighting has never been the point."

Michelle begins to absorb the personality and existence of the "false god," but the latter is doing the same thing.
