Sakura Emma, ​​I'm going to control you fiercely!

However, Noah was prepared for this:

She gave a soft snort and tossed a spray bottle behind her.

Boom! ...

The pink arrow struck the spray can squarely and exploded instantly!

A barely perceptible metallic clang was swallowed up by the explosion.

In an instant, the entire alley shook violently, and dirt and rocks flew everywhere!

The seven colors of paint exploded, transforming into a colorful, exploding fireball!

As the fireball exploded, the walls on both sides collapsed, and the smell of burning filled the air.

The seven-colored smoke completely obscured the naked eye's vision, turning everything into a world of vibrant colors!

The explosive winds propelled Noah's silhouette, further increasing her speed!

You wouldn't believe it! This was Noah's escape route!

As the blood butterfly graffiti drew closer, Noah's lips curled into a smile.

But then, an ominous, demonic voice, as if shirking responsibility, drifted into her ears:

"You're lucky, you've successfully triggered a finishing move after a parry."

call--

Suddenly, a hand emerged from the thick haze behind Noah and grabbed Noah's collar.

"Eh?!"

Noah felt herself being lifted into the air. Before she could even see what was happening, she felt a heavy blow to her abdomen!

"cough……!"

She looked down. Emma's fist was slightly embedded in her lower abdomen.

Then Emma flashed with pink light and disappeared. Noah, who had been released, was about to slide to the ground.

But Emma appeared again not far from her.

This time it's not hand-to-hand combat, but...

A pink arrow that has already been formed.

puff!

The sound of something piercing through the chest.

Along with it came a stinging sensation.

Noah did not fall to the ground, but was nailed to the wall.

She stared blankly down at the hole in her chest and saw the pink arrow lodged there.

Wasn't it covered up with magic paint? Why can the witch see Noah?

The arrow disappeared.

Noah lay sprawled on the ground, his gaze fixed on the witch who remained in an archery stance, amidst the blood-red butterfly graffiti.

The pink and white witch's eyes were lifeless as she stared indifferently at the girl who had almost fled. Her lips moved slightly...

"Hey! Run, keep running! Smoke screen? Do you think my health bar is just for show or I'm blind?"

"Ha, ha..." Noah couldn't understand, and could only gasp for breath.

Am I... going to die?

These were the last words that appeared in her mind.

Gradually, the light in Noah's pupils faded, and his breath ceased.

Emma stared at Noah lying on the blood butterfly pattern, her thoughts reeling.

Your Majesty... has committed murder?

Moreover, the person he killed was a magical girl?

A strong sense of disconnect tormented Emma. Her chaotic thoughts were like a tangled ball of yarn.

Emma's body let out a soft sigh.

"Don't blame me, I gave you a chance."

Noah's spray can dripped red paint, staining the ground.

The red pigment transformed into dancing blood butterflies, fluttering around Noah's gradually cooling "corpse".

A pop-up window appeared on the screen in front of Yang Wen:

[A total of 30 units of pink filth were obtained]

[You have unlocked the defeat CG for Noah Kinosaki: Fluttering Evening Zero]

【翩翩夕零: After equipping this, your attack mode gains the "Compassion Mode".】

Compassionate mode? Does that mean "non-lethal switch"?

Before Yang Wen could examine the skill in detail, a flash of light appeared in his peripheral vision:

Noah's "corpse" was lying there, her magical girl outfit disheveled, reverting to her everyday clothes.

"Goo-ooh..."

Noah regained his voice, and his eyes became a pair of spinning mosquito coils.

Golden particles floated around him, filling the bloody hole in his chest.

Gradually, the hollow center became openwork, the openwork was then filled, and finally it healed completely.

However, Noah's clothes could never be put back on, revealing two flat, shallow cleavages.

Emma breathed a huge sigh of relief.

That was terrifying...

I thought the god was really going to kill Noah!

Looking at it this way, it seems I didn't trust the gods enough... After all, they are gods related to magical girls, how could they possibly kill magical girls?

Yang Wen, watching from the screen, curled his lip.

They're really hard to kill.

I originally wanted to see what would happen after the main characters died, but I couldn't outsmart the production team no matter how much I planned.

That makes sense. When magical girls are defeated, they usually deactivate their transformations and don't die so easily.

but……

Yang Wen looked at Noah's chest, where the skin had healed completely and was now completely naked, and the golden particles swirling among the snow-white skin.

What's with this golden thing? I've never seen it in other magical girl works.

Could it be... that this production team has finally created something original?

After much thought, Emma suddenly noticed a subtle difference:

Noah's red name has changed.

Emma remembered that it was originally 【Magical Girl Opal Lv15】.

But now, the label above their heads has become:

[Golden Fairy Lv15]

Although she is still in a red-name state, she has changed from "magical girl" to "golden fairy".

Emma pursed her lips.

Which golden fairy is this? The one from "Three Questions for the End of the World"?

Emma walked over slowly, squatted down, and patted Noah's cheek.

"Wake up. I just let you off the hook, shouldn't you get up and thank kind Emma?"

They patted Noah's chubby cheeks for a long time, until his cheeks turned red, but Noah still didn't wake up.

"I just can't do anything with you."

Emma looked around to make sure there were no unauthorized people, then picked up Noah in her arms.

It's good that he's still alive; let's take advantage of his health.

Although the battle was exhilarating, Emma didn't forget why she was there in the first place:

Find out the main storyline of the Magical Bureau through the words of other magical girls.

But after the two sides fought, Emma realized that simply asking wouldn't get her to tell them anything.

and so……

Let's interrogate him!

Yes. Emma had to be a little ruthless towards this adorable magical girl for the sake of the main storyline.

While interrogating Noah, they ruthlessly extracted as much pink filth as possible from him!

Incidentally, Emma was also very curious about what the "Golden Fairy" was all about.

With multiple objectives at play, a quiet place is essential for getting things done.

So Emma, ​​carrying Noah, temporarily left the alley.

Emma noticed that her body had left the alley and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

I thought the gods were really going to kill Noah... but now it seems they're just taking Noah to heal his wounds.

A warmth filled her heart.

She is truly a gentle and kind goddess of magical girls...!

Then Emma watched helplessly as she carried Noah into a hotel on the street.

Emma: 'Huh?'

Volume One: Chapter Eighteen Fiercely, Fiercely

The hotel staff watched as a beautiful young woman walked in through the main entrance.

She held a rose bow taller than herself and wore a light pink and white dress, so she looked like a magical girl cosplayer.

Something's wrong! Why is she glowing? And aren't there light particles on the rose gem at the tip of the bow?!

The staff immediately realized: this one is probably the real deal.

The pink and white magical girl was also holding another beautiful girl in her arms.

The staff maintained stiff smiles, considered all possible locations where the hotel ruins might have been, and even wondered if they were witches.

Then, under the tense gaze of the staff, the real magical girl slapped her flat little wallet on the front desk counter.

"Let's get a room."

She thought for a moment and added.

"King-size bed room".

The staff member glanced at the pink and white magical girl, then at the beautiful girl in her arms...

Staff member: "Huh?"

……

……

'Waaah...it's my allowance!'

Emma felt more numb than ever before.

She remembered that in movies and TV dramas, gods either targeted the souls of believers, their emotions, or at the very least, their lives...

But she never expected that the gods would set their sights on her empty wallet!

'8000 yen just vanished like that…'
