The vertical pupils filled with coldness and violent emotions stared straight at Bing Fengqi, trembling slightly within the eye sockets, brewing some disturbing emotions that made Bing Fengqi feel a slight chill on his back.
Finally, the girl spoke again.
Extremely resolute, extremely certain, and extremely cold.
"I am going to kill you."
This was also the last sentence she said to Bing Fengqi.
……
……
Delphinium set out from the Strategy Bureau at the fastest speed, constantly using magic to accelerate all the way, and finally arrived at the location of Lakeside Spring at the fastest speed.
The intense consumption of magic power triggered her already bad condition, so that after just landing from the flight, Delphinium felt a significant headache again. She held onto the wall to steady herself, and when the pain subsided a little, she took another step and rushed into the community.
The gate of the community was open, but there were no staff or pedestrians at the door. They had obviously fled to the shelter long ago. There were no ordinary people inside either, which made Cuique feel more at ease. However, as she walked deeper, the roads around her gradually became fragmented, with traces of battle everywhere.
Obviously, a fierce battle had taken place here. If the guess was correct, the two sides in the battle should be the Special Operations Division's Third Squadron and the remnants of the Black Cinder Dawn that they originally wanted to investigate and hunt down.
Considering that she had not received any calls from the third team on the way here, Kusanagi was pessimistic about the outcome of the battle. And this speculation came true not long after - because she found the body of an employee lying limp on the side of the road.
Judging from his clothes, he was undoubtedly a member of the third team. He was holding a weapon in his hand and had a ferocious and angry expression on his face. However, there was a huge gap on his neck, and he was completely silent.
Seeing the miserable state of the employee, Delphinium looked at him in silence for a while, then cast a spell to protect the corpse inside to prevent it from further damage.
The situation was urgent, and this was all she could do at the moment. After protecting the bodies of the employees, she still had to move forward.
As she continued to go deeper, she saw more and more corpses along the way. Not only those of the Strategy Bureau employees, but also some wearing black robes, who were obviously the corpses of the Black Cinder Dawn.
She cast a barrier spell for every dead employee she saw, while silently counting the bodies in her mind. It was not until the number was close to one-third of the entire Third Team that she finally arrived at the square in the center of the community.
It was here that Delphinium felt an extremely powerful and icy magical power. If her feeling was correct, the owner of this magical power fluctuation should be a crippled beast.
Although she has lost a considerable amount of strength now, the power she retains is still considerable. The one who can make her feel the danger now must be a being at the Pupa stage or above.
With such complicated thoughts in mind, Kuija cautiously stepped into the square in the center of the community. But when she got closer, the scene she saw made her freeze in place.
Because she only needed to look up to see the source of that powerful magic.
——It was a huge pupa-stage remnant beast. One could tell that it once had a complete pupa shell on its body. The reason why it was said “once” was because many of these pupa shells had been inexplicably broken into pieces, and could not even wrap the body of the remnant beast intact.
Of course, even in this state, the magic power of this crippled beast cannot be underestimated.
This pupa-stage remnant beast was not in its own nest, but inexplicably appeared in this small community. However, this still does not mean that it can be dealt with by ordinary magical girls: for most magical girls, it is still a very dangerous enemy.
At this moment, this enemy, who should be quite dangerous, was lying limply on the ground.
Apart from the shattered cocoon shell on its body, the remaining beast did not seem to have suffered much damage - its limbs were intact and its shape was still clear, and it did not look like it had suffered any fatal attack.
But at this moment, even its most basic vital signs seemed extremely weak. It clearly still had powerful and abundant magic power, but it just lay there quietly and powerlessly.
Next to it, there was a figure that felt familiar to Delphinium, yet inexplicably strange.
A girl in a black and green stage dress.
The girl's skirt was completely black and almost reached the ground, yet just enough distance was left. The surface of the skirt was embroidered with many green patterns made of an unknown material. These patterns looked insignificant from a distance, but upon closer inspection, they were extremely intricate and mysterious, while also revealing an evil aura.
The long green hair spread out behind the girl and fell to her waist. The ends of her hair were slightly curled and had a few strands of purple, which looked a little abrupt.
The girl was wearing a pair of black long gloves, which extended all the way to her elbows. At the front of the gloves, long green nails protruded from her hands like claws, looking extremely ferocious.
At this time, the nails penetrated deeply into the body of the remaining beast on the ground, and were slowly, slowly cutting the body of the remaining beast into two.
What exactly does it feel like to be split in half alive? Delphinium didn't know, but judging from the trembling body of the crippled beast, it must be a very uncomfortable feeling.
Although the beast's movements were already very weak, even under the girl's frightening movements, it could only jump slightly, indicating that it still had signs of life. But the girl didn't seem to care about these, and just carried out her cutting behavior mechanically.
After splitting the beast's body in half, the girl suddenly stopped, and light green magic power appeared out of nowhere and suddenly injected into the beast's wound - then, the beast that was almost cut in half was restored to its original state.
It was just like what Delphinium had just seen, without any difference.
After doing all this, the girl turned her face slightly, revealing a somewhat happy smile. Then she stretched out her hand again, deeply, deeply pierced into the body of the crippled beast, and continued to stroke.
Apparently, she had done this many times before.
The crippled beast lying on the ground looked intact, but that was only because it had been healing and recovering from its injuries. But in fact, it had already received countless fatal injuries.
The girl continued to chop the beast apart, turning it into a dying state, and then healed it to make it recover, over and over again. Apparently, this was why the beast's resistance to pain was so weak.
In fact, if the crippled beast had a soul, it had probably died at the spiritual level, and all that remained was a body that was constantly being healed and therefore still alive.
Delphinium looked at the girl in the center of the square and felt as if her throat was blocked. She couldn't utter a word for a moment.
After a long while, she finally calmed down and called out, "...Bo Xue?"
This call made the girl not far away turn her head.
In the dark sclera, a pair of sharp vertical pupils looked at Delphinium, but the expression on the girl's face did not show any ferocity or cruelty, but only childlike innocence.
She looked at Delphinium, and after a brief pause, the innocence turned into joy.
"Teacher! You're here!"
She immediately dropped the crippled beast in her hand, ran over with small steps, and came all the way to the front of the Jade Bird, pointing at the crippled beast lying limply on the ground behind her:
"Did you see that? I did it. I defeated the bad guys just like you! And I punished them severely! Now they will never dare to do bad things again in their lives!"
"These bad guys just told me that I don't have parents and that I should be in the same group with them. They also said that I'm not a real magical girl, but just imitating others."
"But I will tell them that I am a magical girl. I will save everyone and then punish them severely!"
She stretched out her hand and pointed to the other side of the square as if to invite credit, looking at Delphinium expectantly: "And over there, teacher, look!"
Cuiqiao looked in the direction Bai Jingxuan pointed, and saw that a large number of employees from the Strategy Bureau were gathered there. Green magic was wrapping their wounds, healing their injuries, making them calm again and seem to have fallen into a quiet sleep.
But beside the group of Strategy Bureau employees, there were many Black Dawn members piled up there, their bodies covered with fatal wounds. Blood had already seeped into the ground beneath them, but they were piled there like garbage, and no one paid any attention to them.
On one side is heaven, on the other side is hell. This is the scene that Delphinium saw. This description is the most appropriate.
"Hehe, I knew the teacher would come to see me. The teacher really cares about me."
After showing what she had done, Bai Jingxuan still seemed quite excited. As she was talking, she suddenly reached out and hugged Cuique's arm, saying happily: "That bad guy just said that I don't have parents and that my parents are fake. I don't care at all. Anyway, I already have one now!"
"Right, teacher? You can actually be considered my mother now, right?"
She said this to herself, facing the crippled beast that only had a few signs of life left, as if she was showing off like a naive little girl: "See, this is my mother! My mother came to save me, do you think so? You'll be so mad!"
However, after getting closer, Cuiqiao could clearly feel that the crippled beast probably could not hear what Bai Jingxuan said.
——It is dead, but the body is still alive.
Maybe Bai Jingxuan killed it at the beginning, and then just vented her anger in vain; or maybe Bai Jingxuan's subsequent torture slowly took its life. But no matter what, the beast was already dead.
Cuiqiao looked at Bai Jingxuan again, only to see that the girl seemed to have endless things to say. She was still showing off and explaining something, while constantly asking for her opinion, as if she hoped she could express her opinion.
——She was uneasy and she hoped that I would praise her.
Delphinium realized this.
She looked around in silence, at the cruel yet merciful, bloody yet holy scene. After staring at it for a long time, a sudden enlightenment arose in her heart.
She suddenly understood why Lin Xiaolu said those words to her at the moment after the Full Moon Festival battle ended.
At that time, Lin Xiaolu was obviously a little afraid of killing Moss herself, but she walked over resolutely, held her hand, and told herself, "Go back."
Cuiqiao didn't know why Bai Jingxuan was doing all this, and whether there was an element of imitation involved, but the scene at this moment was so similar to her own at that time.
She realized this and understood what she should do now.
Without saying anything, she just moved closer to Bai Jingxuan, slowly opened her arms, and suddenly hugged the girl who seemed to be still in an excited state into her arms.
Then he reached out and gently patted the back of the girl's head.
"Go back." she said softly.
"Go back? Where to?" The girl who was suddenly hugged was obviously confused, and her question was full of emptiness.
Although she was in Delphinium's arms now, it seemed a little unreal for some reason. Delphinium felt that she would turn into smoke and drift away to an unknown distance at any time.
This is not enough, she thought.
This alone seemed not enough to bring Bai Jingxuan, the girl he was familiar with, back. He needed to do something to bring her back from the brink of losing control.
So, what else can I do?
The answer seems to be obvious.
"…Go back with mom."
Pursing her lips, Delphinium tried to make her voice softer. She patted the girl's back and gently comforted her: "Let's go back to the secret base, let's go home."
"……Mother?"
"Ah."
"Is it really my mother? Teacher, are you willing to be my mother?"
"Yes, I do."
"Mom, do you want me to come back with you?"
"Mom wants you to come back with her."
Cuiqiao still hugged Bai Jingxuan tightly, as if she was afraid that she would run away the next moment: "I will take you with me, you follow me, let's go back to find sister, okay?"
After these words, there was endless silence.
In silence, the girl raised her head slightly in Delphinium's arms, and her strange-colored animal eyes looked into Delphinium's arms.
She looked at Delphinium in confusion and silence. After a while, she suddenly smiled again, and the black in her sclera began to fade like the tide.
"Okay, Mom."
As she said this, the black dress on her body scattered like a withered flower. The scattered black magic power quickly dissipated into the air and turned into an undercurrent that went to an unknown place.
The black dress turned into white, and the white dress turned into her everyday clothes, and then the girl fell into Delphinium's arms.
Delphinium looked down and felt that everything that had just happened was just like an illusion. There was only an ordinary-looking little girl lying quietly in her arms.
With a relaxed and secure smile on her face, she snuggled up to Delphinium without any precautions, and fell into a deep sweet and beautiful dream.
