I'm in Morioh, just joined a chat group for cute girls.

The two figures flickered and collided repeatedly in the messy living room.

Durandal's Destiny uniform began to tear under the violent force, first her shoulders, then her sides, and then her thighs... The tough fabric was torn open by the force of the punches, revealing large areas of fair, firm skin that shone with a healthy glow.

But she didn't care about that at all; the excitement of the battle had made her forget everything, and all she could see was the equally matched opponent in front of her.

"boom--!"

Another violent collision sent the two men sliding backward several meters, leaving two deep furrows on the gravel floor.

Durandal gasped for breath, her full breasts heaving violently.

Her once dignified and well-fitting uniform was now just tattered strips of cloth, barely hanging on her body, revealing her black sports bra and most of her athletic physique.

Sweat dripped down her smooth forehead and onto the ground, but her eyes shone with an astonishing brilliance—the joy of meeting a worthy opponent, the fervor of a fighting instinct ignited.

"Not enough...not enough!" She licked her slightly dry lips, her voice hoarse with excitement. "You're strong, really...strong! The strongest opponent I've ever faced!"

Gu Ye shook his slightly numb arm and calmly looked at the girl opposite him who seemed like a Valkyrie descended to earth.

He could sense that his opponent hadn't used their full strength yet.

“You’re quite good too,” Gu Ye said, “but with that alone, you can’t beat me.”

He paused, his gaze sweeping over her tattered clothes before finally settling on her eyes, which burned with fighting spirit.

"Summon your Valkyrie armor!"

"Let me witness the true power of the strongest S-class Valkyrie of Destiny."

His voice was calm, yet it sounded like a most solemn invitation being extended from these ruins.

Three chapters have been published so far, and two more will follow.

Chapter 30 Rita vs. the Queen of Thunder

As Durandal looked at Gu Ye, a light called "recognition" appeared for the first time in her blue eyes, which were burning with fighting spirit.

“Very good.” Her voice trembled almost imperceptibly, a sign of extreme excitement. “As a response to your courage, I will bestow upon you the glory of defeat in my strongest form.”

A milky white light enveloped Durandal.

As the light faded, a brand new knight stood atop the ruins.

It was a knight's armor made entirely of blue and white, full of a sense of technology and power. Every joint and every seam of the armor was flawless, like the highest masterpiece of a master craftsman.

"Godslayer Armor, 'Radiant Knight: Moonbeam'." Durandal's voice emanated from within the armor, metallic, cold, and sacred, "and—"

She stretched out her left hand, and from the void, a pure white lance appeared as if summoned, its shaft adorned with golden patterns, and its tip seemingly crafted from the purest diamond.

Immediately afterwards, another lance, completely black and seemingly capable of swallowing all light, appeared in her right hand.

"The Key of God, 'Black Abyss White Flower'."

"Come on, challenger." Durandal crossed her black and white pistols in front of her, the tips pointing directly at Gu Ye on the ground. "Let me show you the power of destiny."

Gu Ye's expression was more solemn than ever before.

The "weather forecast" behind him let out a low growl, and countless clouds surged from its body, attempting to rebuild its own stormy domain.

But this time, the moment the mist touched Durandal, it was instantly dispelled by the light and heat emanating from her.

Durandal moved.

She didn't even charge; she simply waved her white lance, "White Flower," lightly.

A visible white light blade detached from the spear tip and slashed towards Gu Ye at supersonic speed!

"Weather Forecast" crossed its arms in front of it, the light blade slashing at the arms formed by clouds and mist, producing a piercing cutting sound.

As the clouds dispersed, the blade of light, still possessing its full force, grazed Gu Ye's shoulder, leaving a deep, bottomless slash mark on the wall behind him.

A thin line of blood slowly seeped from Gu Ye's shoulder. This was the first time he had been injured.

"It's over." Durandal's voice was like a final judgment.

The black lance "Black Abyss" in her hand was aimed at Gu Ye, and the tip of the lance began to gather a chilling dark energy that seemed capable of disintegrating everything.

Meanwhile, thousands of kilometers away at the Schicksal headquarters, Otto Apocalypse was holding a cup of black tea in front of a huge floor-to-ceiling window, watching the battle scene on the holographic projection with great interest.

“What a fine mood you’re in. Durandal is still as serious as ever.” He took a sip of his red tea and said to Amber, who was standing beside him, “However, that young man named Gu Ye’s time has come to an end. His abilities are interesting, but they are not mature enough, and the foundation of his power is too shallow.”

“Your Excellency, what do you mean?” Amber asked respectfully.

"The game's over." Otto put down his teacup, smiled, and pressed the communicator. "Rita, did you have fun?"

Meanwhile, Rita, who was watching the battle with great interest, heard the bishop's voice through her miniature communicator. Her smile remained unchanged, and she simply gave a slight bow.

"Yes, Your Grace. Lady Durandal seems to be enjoying herself very much."

"Hmm, let her have her fun." Otto's voice carried a hint of languor. "Now, go and invite the rest of the 'guests' back. Remember, they have to be alive."

"Yes, ma'am." Rita's voice remained gentle.

Within that invisible mental network, however, the atmosphere was extremely tense.

[Devil Muscle Rin]: Hey! This is bad! That blond idiot is a bit too strong after putting on that armor! Gu Ye seems to be unable to withstand it!

[American Scythe]: Tsk, this is troublesome. That turtle shell looks tough; my bomb probably can't penetrate it.

【Marin】: What should we do? Gu Yejun is injured! We need to think of something quickly! Should we send him a red envelope? Do we have any usable props?

[Herrscher of the Rice]: Kiana... Kiana is badly injured, I can't leave. Gu Yejun...

[Weather Forecast]: Don't panic, I have a backup plan. Protect yourselves, and be careful of that maid.

Rita hung up the call, her smile becoming even more meaningful.

She took a step forward, her gaze sweeping over Rin Tohsaka and W, who were on high alert, before finally settling on Mei Raiden, who was anxiously taking care of Kiana.

"Ladies, your enjoyable viewing time has come to an end." Her voice was as elegant as ever. "Now, would you please cooperate and come with me back to headquarters? Don't worry, I won't hurt you."

"Dream on!" Rin Tohsaka sneered, instantly scattering over a dozen dazzling gems from her hands, which floated in front of her, surging with magical energy. "If you want to take us away, ask my gems if they'll allow it first!"

W didn't speak, but grinned, revealing sharp fangs, and a menacing-looking grenade launcher appeared in his hand.

"Hehe, what an energetic bunch of kittens." Rita chuckled, and an icy blue light flowed around her body. A set of cold armor, "Hunter's Suit: Shadow Iron," which was completely different from Durandal's style and full of gothic beauty, instantly covered her entire body.

A massive black scythe, the "Gene Harvester," appeared in her hand.

"Well, I'm sorry."

Rita's figure vanished instantly, bringing with it a chilling wave.

Her target wasn't Rin or W, but Mei, who was the least prepared!

"Watch out!" Rin and W exclaimed at the same time, but it was too late.

Just before Rita's scythe was about to touch Mei, Mei's body trembled violently.

An uncontrollable will, filled with pride and anger, erupted completely from the depths of her soul!

"Get out of here, you piece of trash!"

A completely different voice, a female voice filled with an air of supreme authority, rang out from Mei's mouth.

"boom!"

A thunderbolt of billions of volts descended from the sky, forcibly stopping Rita's high-speed movement!

The figure of the Thunder Queen had completely separated from Mei's body. She hovered in mid-air, her left arm bearing a ferocious dragon head that let out a silent roar, and her body was surrounded by destructive arcs of electricity.

"How dare you touch my people in front of me?" The Thunder Queen's voice was icy cold. "Who gave you the audacity?"

"This is... the power of a Herrscher!" For the first time, surprise appeared in Rita's eyes.

The next second, Rin's Jewel Bullet and W's Grenade also roared in.

The balance of power in the battle was instantly reversed.

Under the unreasonable and absolute control of the Thunder Queen's lightning, coupled with Rin and W's tricky attacks, Rita, the elegant maid, was caught off guard for the first time.

Finally, amidst a massive explosion and a sky full of lightning, Rita's armor was destroyed, and she was firmly bound to the wall by the Queen's electromagnetic force, unable to move.

Chapter 31 Weather Forecast: Gale and Torrential Rain!

On the other side, Gu Ye, facing the tip of the "Black Abyss" spear, felt an unprecedented threat of death.

But he wasn't afraid; instead, he laughed.

“Finally… this moment has come.” He murmured to himself.

His will, his soul, resonated perfectly with the stand-in behind him at this moment.

"Not enough! Not enough!" he roared inwardly. "My will, my resolve, is not limited to this!"

"Come out—"

He looked up at the sky and called out the complete name that had never been called before.

"Weather Report - Heavy Weather!"

The stunt double behind him, the blue-white cloud, underwent a dramatic change in an instant.

The clouds expanded wildly, almost filling the entire living room.

Within the churning clouds, dazzling, rainbow-like spectra began to flow, radiating an eerie yet sacred light.

Durandal pulled the trigger of the attack, and the dark energy, powerful enough to disintegrate everything, was about to erupt.

But at that moment, she froze.

A peculiar ray of sunlight pierced through the hole in the roof and through the churning clouds, precisely shining upon her "Radiant Knight: Moonbeam" armor.

The sunlight wasn't scorching; it even carried a hint of warmth.

But the moment she was touched by the sunlight, an unprecedented cognitive dissonance, originating from the deepest part of her soul, seized Durandal's entire mind.

She felt changes happening in her body.

The hard, god-slaying armor seemed to be melting, turning into a slippery, soft membrane.

She felt her limbs shrinking and contracting inwards.

She felt something rising up behind her, turning into a heavy, spiraling hard shell.

"What...is this?" Her body was undergoing uncontrollable "changes".

She saw her own hands, the hands that had once gripped lances and brought countless victories—the hands that belonged to the Valkyrie—transforming into a soft, slimy tentacle.

This is not a physical change.

Instead, sunlight, refracted through the damaged atmosphere, emits a light that can directly distort the subconscious of living beings, making those irradiated believe, from a soul-deep level, that they are turning into a snail.

Bianca Durandal Atagina, the strongest S-rank Valkyrie of Destiny, was bathed in the eerie rainbow sunlight, her body curled up on the cold ground, slowly and irreversibly transforming into a humble and fragile snail.

Time seemed to stretch out and freeze at that moment.

A deathly silence reigned over the ruins of the living room.

The eerie rainbow-colored sunlight has dissipated, but its effect is like a surreal painting, imprinted on everyone's retina.

Rin Tohsaka stared blankly, her eyes, which always sparkled with confidence and cunning, now empty. She instinctively reached into her pocket for a gem, but her fingers were stiff and wouldn't obey her commands.

W's ever-present mocking smile froze; she even forgot to breathe.

Kiana struggled to sit up from Mei's arms, the excruciating pain in her abdomen seemingly gone.

She looked at the snail, then looked up at Gu Ye, who was unharmed. The expression on her face changed from pain to confusion, and then from confusion to a blank stare that could not be described in words.

She couldn't reconcile the lowly creature before her with the godlike Valkyrie who had just kicked her to the brink of death.

Kitagawa Kaimu's reaction was the purest. Her small mouth opened into an "O" shape, and her big eyes, which always sparkled with curiosity, widened in surprise.
