Chapter 336 Never Abandon, Never Give Up
Night falls, and stars adorn the boundless sky.
Ignoring the howling of the abyss elves in the relic space, the Demoness Illusion Butterfly slowly turned around, her gaze piercing through the long night, focusing on the Kikyo mage dressed in a pale white magical gown.
His gaze held a mixture of complex emotions—disgust, helplessness, and a touch of pain.
"What a coincidence, Kikyo the Magician, are you also out to look at the moon?"
The voice of the Demoness Butterfly sounded exceptionally familiar, as if the two were old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years.
Upon hearing this, Kikyo, the magician, looked up, her golden eyes slowly gazing at the sky. She didn't see the moon, but she did see several dark clouds.
The magical girl turned around and shook her head at the demon princess.
"no."
"Oh, never mind then. You're not, I am. Now that the moon is gone, I'm going back. The gas stove is still on. Let's talk again sometime."
As she spoke, Demoness Illusion Butterfly waved to the Abyss Troll who was feasting nearby, "Little Ten, it's time to go home."
"roar!"
The abyss troll stood up, as if in response.
It glanced at the pale white insect in front of it with great apprehension. Of all the insects, this one exerted the strongest pressure on it.
The abyss troll had barely moved a few steps following the Demoness Phantom Butterfly when, in the next instant, a golden arrow suddenly appeared in front of her, grazing the hair on her forehead. Had she taken even a single step forward, the arrow would have been aimed straight at her head.
"What do you mean by that?"
Demoness Phantom Butterfly silently turned around, her face gradually turning cold: "Are you perhaps seeking revenge for these freaks within the traitorous organization?"
Kikyo, the mage, showed no change in expression as she looked at the trembling, strange figures on the ground. She gently pulled towards the sky, and whoosh!
A dark, glowing rune merged into the arrow, like a star adorning it. It vanished silently from the bowstring, following the direction in which the golden light disappeared.
In the vision of the phantom butterfly, those treacherous monsters who were barely clinging to life were all pierced by the golden raindrops falling from the sky.
Not a single one survived. The abyss troll stood by, watching with a heavy heart. What a tragedy!
How could these damned bugs waste food!
Kikyo, the magician, silently turned back to look at the direction of the Demoness, Phantom Butterfly. "These people are dead, but the miasma crisis that broke out in Yeqiu City may require Miss Phantom Butterfly's assistance in investigating."
After a brief pause, Kikyo, the sorceress, smiled in a seemingly kind manner. "If you are innocent, I will let you go."
The Demoness Illusionary Butterfly's lips twitched slightly. "Do you think I look like a seven or eight-year-old child?"
Kikyo, the magician, shook her head. "You used to be like that, but now you've gone astray. Not only have your clothes gotten shorter, but you've also learned to get tattoos."
After a long pause, she said earnestly, "This is not good."
A gentle night breeze stirred, and goosebumps rose on Huan Die's skin. This Kikyo magician is really something else!
Upon meeting, he stares intently at other people's bodies—that's a woman!
In her heart, Huan Die cursed the Kikyo mage, but on the surface, a faint smile appeared on her face: "How about this, you come to my house as a guest, and I will tell you everything I know. I can tell you all the information you want to know, including the Lord of the Abyss, the relics, whatever you want to know, I will tell you, how about it?"
"Is it really possible?"
Kikyo, the magician, had a faint smile in her eyes and a serious expression on her face.
Phantom Butterfly:
'
""
Seeing the other party's appearance, Huan Die was a little unsure. Was the other party already this powerful?
Are you already capable of venturing alone into the abyss's lair without fear?
Demoness Huandie blinked, staring at Kikyo's beautiful golden eyes, unsure whether she was joking or serious.
But she nodded seriously. "Of course, I can. I'm about to head back. Would you like to come back with me?"
"Today?"
Kikyo, the mage, frowned immediately. "I'm afraid it won't work today. I still need to investigate the miasma bomb. How about this, you help me go back and investigate first, and after I confirm there are no problems, I'll come to your house as a guest, okay?"
"That won't work, my sister is waiting for me to come home for dinner."
As soon as he finished speaking, time seemed to stand still.
The surroundings became unusually quiet, with only the murderous intent emanating from the confrontation between the two permeating the entire scene.
After a while, Huan Die suddenly turned her head to look at the abyssal behemoth beside her and said, "Xiao Shi, I'll leave this magical girl to you."
"roar?"
The abyss troll blinked its large, Calandor eyes, its gaze filled with great doubt. "I'm fighting Kikyo the Magician, really?"
However, since Princess Phantom Butterfly has given the order, it shall obey.
"roar!"
With a deafening roar, the Abyss Troll, following the command of the Demoness Illusion Butterfly, launched a fierce attack on the Kikyo Mage with its massive and imposing body.
A colossal object, ten meters tall, descended like a small mountain, utterly destroying buildings in its path and sending rubble and debris flying everywhere. The Kikyo Magic Stone stood silently in place, its golden eyes gazing intently at the massive structure.
One hundred meters, fifty meters, ten meters...
Kikyo, the mage, made her move. She stretched out her hand, and the Bow of Exorcism appeared. Her fingers were slightly bent, as if guiding the flow of some kind of power.
The next second, her body began to glow slightly, and a pale golden light emanated from her body, gradually spreading out and dyeing the air around her with a faint golden hue.
Whoosh!
The golden arrow suddenly split in two in mid-air, then into four, then into eight.
In an instant, the density of these golden arrows was comparable to that of a machine gun on a battlefield. Countless sharp arrows shot towards the abyss troll from all directions, densely covering its entire body like a torrential downpour.
"Roar! Roar!"
Each roar revealed the rage and pain of the abyssal troll.
Suddenly, the abyss troll accelerated and grabbed the pale white light in the air. Kikyo only saw a blurry black afterimage before her body was already in the abyss troll's palm.
Judging from the throbbing muscles of the abyss troll, it was now straining to gather its strength, wanting to completely crush the golden barrier that appeared on Kikyo's face!
But a few minutes later, the abyss troll seemed to have given up on this brute force method. Instead, it raised its arm, and in Kikyo's sight, it slowly lifted her up, seemingly preparing to throw her directly into its gaping maw.
The pitch-black maw was filled with sharp teeth, some of which still held the remains of the traitors' corpses.
Almost the instant the abyss troll threw her into the abyss's maw, the mage Kikyo made her move.
This was the moment she had been waiting for. She swiftly raised her arm, and the light and beautiful Demon-Slaying Bow reappeared in her hand.
The moment Kikyo drew her bow, seven intricate and profound magical runes appeared in the air, swirling around her. These runes seemed to contain all sorts of mysterious powers.
Whoosh!
A purple inscription was incorporated into the arrow, like a star adorning it.
She drew back the Demon-Slaying Bow and fired a divine arrow radiating a pale purple light, which shot straight towards the abyssal troll before her like lightning.
Whoosh!
A faint purple light emanated from the gaping, pitch-black maw of the abyss troll, revealing that the arrow had pierced straight through the depths of its maw!
With a loud thud, the massive body of the abyss troll crashed to the ground. Residents living nearby felt the earth suddenly rumble, and those who didn't know better might have thought it was an earthquake.
As the Abyss Troll's body dissipated into a dense mass of Abyss vapor, a snow-white hand slowly picked up the dark purple Abyss Stone. "Little Ten, rest for a while. I'll see if I can find a time to revive you when I get back."
Demoness Phantom Butterfly slowly turned her head, looked at the Kikyo Mage beside her, and chuckled, "Kikyo Mage, you've already slain a [Shura]-level Abyss Calamity Beast. I feel it's about time you went back to report."
"How about we pretend we never met?"
To be honest, Huan Die really didn't want to fight Kikyo the Magician; it wasn't necessary.
Kikyo, the magician, breathed softly and remained silent, standing before the Demoness, Illusion Butterfly. This was clearly her answer.
Seeing this, Huan Die sighed softly, "Before you came, you must have received news of the calamity that broke out in Moon Mountain, Ye Qiu City, right?"
Upon hearing the Demon Princess Phantom Butterfly suddenly mention this information, Kikyo's composure gradually vanished, and her gaze became firmly fixed on the Demon Princess Phantom Butterfly, her eyes filled with coldness.
As if she hadn't seen this, Huan Die said, "Since you didn't go, it means that the vice-captain of the Kikyo Judgment Squad, Violet Mage, went. I'm curious whether she, a magical girl who appears to have the strength of [Blooming Flower] but actually only has the strength of [Break Bud], can hold off the four Abyss Demon Generals?"
Four Abyss Demon Generals!
Kikyo's expression changed drastically. She had originally thought there was only one Abyss Demon General over there. Although she was somewhat uneasy before setting off, she was not worried about Violet Mage's safety.
However, if the four Abyss Demon Generals were to abandon the members of Kikyo's Judgment Squad and run away from the very beginning, they would surely die!
Call ~
Kikyo, the mage, took a deep breath. The calm and composed look she had given before was gone from her eyes. Instead, her eyes revealed tension, unease, and a surging, intense killing intent!
Her current goal is simple: to defeat the Demoness Butterfly as quickly as possible and then go back to help.
Her figure gradually rose into the air, appearing exceptionally lonely yet resolute in the hazy moonlight.
The next second, a pale golden light enveloped the Demon-Slaying Bow, and the seven runes behind her appeared exceptionally mysterious under the moonlight. They seemed like ancient runes, containing unfathomable mysteries.
As her breathing gradually calmed, the runes began to emit a faint glow, as if responding to the call of her heart.
This time, seven profound runes of different colors lit up behind her at the same time and disappeared into the Demon-Slaying Bow.
Kikyo took a deep breath and began to draw her bow.
Her movements were fluid and graceful, as if she were one with the bow. As she channeled her power into the bow, a brilliant golden light grew brighter and brighter in the dark night, as if a powerful force was gathering.
As the bowstring tightened, a terrifying surge of magical energy began to spread outwards. A strong electric current filled the air, as if countless bolts of lightning were streaking through the sky.
The clouds in the sky began to churn, as if something was awakening from within them.
Sensing the intense threat emanating from the opponent's Demon-Slaying Bow, Demoness Huandie's lips twitched. She simply wanted the opponent to hurry back to provide support so she could retreat.
But now, what's going on? Her well-intentioned reminder has actually ignited the other party's anger to its fullest extent, instantly building up to a huge rage!
If she hadn't defended well against that attack, she really could have died.
The Demoness, Phantom Butterfly, looked at Kikyo's beautiful face and sighed softly.
Moon Hill in Tianxin District is named so because the citizens of Yeqiu City love to come here at night to see the moon. The winding mountain road offers endless beautiful scenery along the way.
The quiet path is lined with lush green plants, which appear even more vibrant and verdant under the moonlight.
Flowers bloom in profusion, emitting a refreshing fragrance.
Strolling here is like stepping into a fairyland, allowing one to forget the hustle and bustle of the world and immerse oneself in the embrace of nature.
Looking up at the sky, the round and full moon hangs like a pearl in the deep night sky, radiating a soft yet dazzling light.
But now, none of the residents of Yeqiu City dare to go out.
Above the sky, a pale purple figure was fighting a demonic abyssal monster. The pale purple light and the pitch-black abyssal aura collided and exploded countless times in the sky.
Below, the Kikyo Judgment Squad is fighting against those strangely shaped Abyss Cutters. Bai Youqing is really struggling to hold back when she sees the Abyss Cutters in front of her!
Just how many minions did this Abyss Demon General bring? Every time they just killed the Abyss Calamity Beast in front of them and were about to help Sister Violet,
Before long, the Abyss Demon General would summon another batch of Abyss Calamity Beasts to stop them. They were of different kinds, but the number was the same, always four.
One for each person, no more and no less.
The only saving grace was that these abyssal beasts were the same types that Sister Violet had led them to kill before.
Fighting can be tough, but winning brings a strange sense of exhilaration, just like the satisfaction of solving every math problem during an exam!
[Light Wing Slash!]
As a pure white light appeared, Bai Youqing turned her sword tip, and a dazzling light instantly gathered on the emerald green longsword. With her swing, a huge light wing slash swept out, like the dawn breaking, and in the blink of an eye, it cleaved the Abyss Cutter in two.
She wiped the sweat from her forehead, turned around, and found that Xia Qing and the others around her had also finished their battles around the same time.
"Healing light!"
Meanwhile, Li Xuanyu, having finished her battle, saw the fatigue on Bai Youqing and the others' faces. She waved her staff, and a soft, snow-white light shone on the Kikyo Judgment Team, restoring their magic and stamina. Since her defeat in the last competition, she had specially learned several healing and purification spells from Kikyo the Magician.
"Red Rose, how are you feeling now?"
"It's alright. After advancing to the Breaking Bud stage, my magic power felt a bit unstable, but it feels much better now." Xia Qing was panting heavily, taking the opportunity to rest. She didn't know if that damned Abyss Demon General would summon another wave of Abyss Calamity Beasts later.
"Okay, once we've rested, let's go help Sister Violet."
Li Xuanyu looked at the figure in the sky with a worried expression. Before she knew who Violet was, she had always respected Violet. Now that she knew who she was, she not only respected her, but also felt closer to her.
"it is good."
Before they could finish speaking, whoosh!
Whoosh!
At the same time, several figures attacked from the sky and landed beside the demon Kurt.
The members of the Kikyo Judgment Squad were stunned. The Abyss Demon Generals were the Twin Stars, and the Abyss Demon General in gray robes...
Including the previous Abyss Demon General, Demon Korte, there are now four Abyss Demon Generals on Moon Mountain in the Tianxin District.
The members of Kikyo's Judgment Team were initially excited, but their excitement instantly sank. Kikyo-senpai still hadn't arrived, and they wondered if she had encountered some difficulties.
The miasma bomb explosion affected more than a dozen districts except for Tianxin District. Forget about anyone coming to help them; they might even need the adjudication teams from other districts to come and assist them!
Boom!
A violent explosion rang out, and the figures of the Violet Mage and the Demon Korto, who were locked in combat, quickly separated. The Violet Mage returned to the front of the Kikyo Judgment Squad, panting heavily.
Her delicate face was covered in dust from the explosion, making her look slightly disheveled.
The Violet Mage wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and looked at the Kikyo Judgment Squad behind her. "Xia Qing, take them away from here. This is no longer a battle you can participate in."
"No, absolutely impossible!"
Before Xia Qing could speak, Bai Youqing and Li Xuanyu behind her stepped forward and refused.
What a joke! Ever since they found out that the Violet Mage was their brother, Bai Youqing and Li Xuanyu knew everything about the Violet Mage's personal experiences and battles, especially the final battle of Moon Mountain, in which the Violet Mage volunteered to stay behind to cover the retreat, only to be brutally mutilated into a human pig.
Now, how could they possibly let such a thing happen again?
The members of the Kikyo Judgment Squad exchanged glances, their eyes filled with unwavering determination: "We, the Kikyo Judgment Squad, live together, die together! We will never abandon or give up on any magical girl!"
