Starting as a Magical Girl, I Alone Shall Rule for Eternity

"Lady Winter, shouldn't we intervene now?"

High up on the building, sitting at the edge where she could fall at any moment, the blue magical girl swung her legs in the air. Beside her, the nervous white magical girl hugged her magic wand tightly, crouching next to Bingtang like a small cat, her skirt fluttering violently in the strong wind. "Isn't it a bit inappropriate to let the Sect Master fight alone?"

"Yumo, the Sect Master said before not to interfere with his practical combat training, have you forgotten?"

"But the Sect Master also said that when dealing with crooked organizations like the Witch Association, everyone should attack together, no need for one-on-one fights..."

"That was said to us. When the Sect Master is present, no one else is allowed to act without permission."

In front of the tall building, a faint transparent ice screen reflected Jiang Si and Dujuan.

This was one of Bingtang's abilities - Mirror Projection, which could clearly capture distant battles in full view.

As the Grand Elder and nominal Vice Sect Master of the Azure Cloud Sect, Bingtang possessed the most abilities in the sect, though this was largely thanks to Jiang Si's ingenious ideas - he always came up with various strange applications.

Nearly half of Bingtang's peculiar abilities were developed with Jiang Si's help.

Watching the battle in the mirror with boredom, until the Witch Association member was kicked down from the air by Jiang Si, Bingtang's already frosty expression grew even more unpleasant.

Meanwhile, Yumo beside her curled up, clenched her fists, and showed a smile on her small face. "Good, it seems like we're about to win!"

"Don't jinx it like that. There's so much dust - the Sect Master said that where there's smoke, there's no injury. When fighting others, try not to raise dust until you confirm the kill. You haven't forgotten all of that, have you?"

"Uh..."

Looking at Yumo who was rendered speechless, Bingtang sighed. "Copy the sect's combat rules for me when we get back."

"Wah, I still have so much homework..."

"No rush, copy them after finishing your homework. Just finish copying by the end of this month, it's only ten articles."

"Okay..."

Bingtang's legs swinging in the air quickened, and her tone grew somewhat urgent. "Is this really going to work? Isn't this supposed to be a core member? Why can't I see any difference from other ordinary members?"

If this continued, Jiang Si wouldn't transform at all.

Sighing inwardly, it seemed she wouldn't get to see Shion today either.

Just as she was about to jump down and get closer to Jiang Si's location, the moment she stood up, an intense red magical power suddenly burst into flames from the distance, radiating astonishing power.

This made Bingtang instinctively turn to look.

Yumo also noticed that unrestrained, flamboyant magical energy and glanced into the distance, then lowered her head to sniff the wind blowing from that direction:

"It's the magical aura of Keke and Silver Lotus."

Yumo whispered: "Keke just became a magical girl recently, right? And she already has such powerful magical energy? That's amazing. She might become stronger than all of us in the future."

"After all, she's the Sect Master's sister. Her potential must be considerable."

Bingtang watched thoughtfully as Silver Lotus and Keke hurried toward Jiang Si's location. "It seems the Disaster Control Bureau has discovered the Witch Association's traces. I thought they'd be unresponsive like before."

Yumo crouched on the rooftop, sometimes looking at the battle situation with Jiang Si, sometimes turning to look at Silver Lotus and Keke, hugging her magic wand while looking back and forth, appearing very busy but not knowing what she was busy with. "So what should we do now, Lady Bingtang?"

"Of course, use your wind to block them a bit."

Bingtang pulled Yumo as they jumped down from the building. "Don't let them disturb the Sect Master's battle."

"Oh oh, okay."

In mid-air, Yumo released her grip, and her magic wand transformed into a gust of strong wind that blew toward Silver Lotus and Keke.

The howling wind instantly made the vigorously burning red magical energy sway unsteadily.

And Silver Lotus's pink petals also danced wildly in the strong wind, becoming difficult to control.

The two magical girls were trapped in the wind, unable to move an inch.

Bingtang inwardly praised - Yumo's magical control was still so perfect.

Although she appeared somewhat timid, Yumo's strength was actually among the top ranks in the Azure Cloud Sect.

Disciples with insufficient strength wouldn't qualify to enter the Illusory Moon Cavern Dwelling.

As core disciples, the most basic requirement was to reach the mid-Seedling level in strength.

And if it came purely to magical control, even Bingtang was slightly inferior.

If Yumo fought without holding back, it wouldn't be difficult for her alone to deal with Silver Lotus and Keke.

Controlling her wind from such a great distance, Yumo could even precisely control where each of Silver Lotus's petals would land.

She also incidentally activated the intoxicating fragrance within the petals, causing Silver Lotus to be disturbed by her own ability and become lost in the wind.

Of course, Yumo didn't dare to actually harm the two.

Not to mention that Keke was the Sect Master's sister and already held a considerable status, that Silver Lotus also seemed quite close to the Sect Master and should be considered a friend.

Yumo's thoughts drifted for a moment.

She was just a small personal disciple - if she injured Keke and Silver Lotus, she would definitely be expelled from the Azure Cloud Sect by the Sect Master. Without the Azure Cloud Sect's salary, she wouldn't be able to pay off her family's debts. If the family debts weren't paid off, Yumo would be sold off by her parents, and then because she had magical girl talent, she would be noticed and bought by the Disaster Control Bureau.

Finally, she would become enemies with the Sect Master and Lady Bingtang, suffering painfully every time she faced them but having no choice but to fight, because she would already belong to the Disaster Control Bureau, so she would still fight with all her might against Lady Bingtang and the Sect Master, ultimately lose, and die miserably in Lady Bingtang's hands. Even though she admired and liked the Sect Master and Lady Bingtang the most, she would have to die by their hands...

"Big Sister Bingtang, I don't want to die..."

Of course, Bingtang didn't know that this little girl beside her, while just blocking someone, had already imagined a tragic drama starring herself and gotten quite invested in it. She just felt somewhat baffled. "Huh? Of course you won't die."

But having been together for a long time, she knew this girl who loved to daydream usually brought her wild imaginations into reality, so she knocked on her forehead. "How did we jump to dying? Focus on your work properly, don't let your mind wander."

"Oh."

Only after Yumo settled down did Bingtang look back at Jiang Si's battle.

Dujuan had taken out a Miracle Seed.

Although somewhat rotten and clearly on the verge of collapse, it was indeed a Miracle Seed.

"Transform!"

Seeing this scene, Bingtang immediately clapped her hands and shouted with uncontrollable joy, "Yes! I knew you weren't useless! You can do it! Go for it, Dujuan! Don't disgrace magical girls! Don't lose to an ordinary person!"

Yumo muttered in her heart - why was Lady Bingtang so happy when the opponent became more troublesome?

She was even cheering for the opponent.

Did she have a fight with the Sect Master?

Then Yumo glanced at the transformed dark magical girl - her usually timid eyes now carried a trace of cold killing intent.

She hated the Witch Association's magical girls the most.

......

Most Witch Association members weren't magical girls.

In fact, many magical girls who fell into the Witch Association quickly lost their transformation ability.

The reason was simple - the power controlled by the Witch Association came from the polluted magical energy of Grief Seeds.

They could not only create Disaster Beasts but also transplant the power of Disaster Beasts into themselves, using a portion of the Disaster Beasts' abilities.

Generally, this conflicted with magical girls' power, so most magical girls who fell into the Witch Association would lose their transformation ability - those who didn't touch Grief Seeds wouldn't join the Witch Association anyway.

But exceptions weren't surprising - the Witch Association's understanding and use of Grief Seeds was the strongest in contemporary times, so it wasn't inconceivable that they had methods to allow magical girls to transform while contaminated.

The Azure Cloud Sect had previously had disciples witness contaminated magical girls transforming.

So the moment Dujuan pulled out the Miracle Seed, Jiang Si immediately ran without looking back.

Magical girl transformations were fast - the dressing process took less than about a second - but adding the time to take out the seed and the startup time of shouting the transformation slogan...

Was enough for Jiang Si to create distance.

The dark magical girl quickly chased after him from behind.

"Lucky Guy, why are you running!"

Compared to other magical girls, the contaminated magical girl's dress looked somewhat dirty, the hem fluttering like squirming tentacles, the magical attire seeming like it was about to melt, dripping dark magical energy bit by bit along the way.

For Dujuan, if possible, she didn't want to waste transformation opportunities on battles.

Transformations after contamination had limited uses - the Witch Association's technology could only maintain the Miracle Seed from collapsing within three transformations.

This was already her second transformation - she had one last chance before her Miracle Seed would shatter.

The first transformation was shortly after joining the Witch Association, when the branch she joined was completely wiped out by the Azure Cloud Sect.

At that time, the contamination wasn't deep, and after transforming she maintained a normal magical girl appearance, deceiving the Azure Cloud Sect members at the time and escaping.

Since then, she had been hiding from the Azure Cloud Sect and Disaster Control Bureau for two years,

Which also cultivated her cautious habits, because those who weren't cautious enough would quickly be caught by the Azure Cloud Sect and Disaster Control Bureau.

When Jiang Si jumped into the sky and kicked her down, Dujuan knew this guy wasn't simple.

Using only the power of the Grief Seed and transforming into a Disaster Beast might still be able to capture him, but firstly she didn't want to engage in prolonged combat - using contaminated magical energy didn't give absolute advantage and might drag on.

Secondly, being knocked down by an ordinary person made her somewhat embarrassed and angry.

She wanted to slowly torture him, make him understand the gap between them, plunge him into the deepest despair!

Make him firmly remember to never try to oppose magical girls!

Although Jiang Si was fast, after witnessing his explosive power from the leap earlier, Dujuan had completely adapted to and could capture his movements.

No matter how fast, he couldn't be faster than flying!

Speeding up again, she drew a dark arc in the air and instantly blocked Jiang Si's path ahead. However, the other party showed no intention of slowing down, crashing toward her like a large truck!

Mud-like dark magical energy gathered into a barrier in front of her as a buffer, but when Jiang Si crashed into it, the terrifying impact made the contaminated magical energy splash away like mud droplets!

But it still blocked the young man's advance.

Her magic wand lightly tapped the ground, and the magical energy poured into the earth burst out from beneath Jiang Si's feet, reaching for his ankles.

But then Jiang Si suddenly stomped the ground, a dull sound raising dust and wind waves - the collapsed ground actually forcibly pressed the magical energy back!

This was the first time Dujuan encountered manipulated magical energy being suppressed by brute force. In that moment of stunned surprise, the young man opposite seized the opening and threw another punch!

It punched straight through the magical barrier, but its force was mostly spent. Dujuan just slightly tilted her head to dodge.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Si backhandedly grabbed her hair soaked with contaminated magical energy.

Pulling her hair, he dragged her head and fiercely pressed it toward the tree trunk beside them!

"Looking to die!"

The moment her hair was grabbed, Dujuan tapped the ground with her magic wand, and magical energy condensed into a long spear above, suddenly thrusting down toward Jiang Si's head!

Jiang Si had no choice but to release his grip and step back. The spear inserted into the ground along the tip of his nose, and then without pause he continuously jumped backward because the magical energy continuously piercing from beneath his feet prevented him from continuing his attack.

But the speed of magical manipulation wasn't fast enough.

Far inferior to Bingtang, and completely unmatched to Yumo in precision.

A Seedling-level rookie.

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Si who had been forced to distance himself stopped and looked at the wound on his pant leg.

But even so, he still couldn't completely defend against the opponent's damage.

In terms of reaction speed, defensive capability, and even speed, his physical body still had some gap compared to Seedling-level magical girls.

Although not extremely large, each small gap accumulated to form a despairing chasm.

After all, only having strength reach the Seedling level was completely insufficient...

The dark magical energy in front and behind Dujuan surged as she slowly walked toward Jiang Si. With a casual wave, dense magical pillars smashed toward Jiang Si with overwhelming momentum.

Even with extremely fast reactions dodging the magical pillars, the splashing magical energy would still cut his skin like blades.

"You're truly outstanding, I admit it. In all my years, this is the first time I've seen someone who could develop their physical body to this extent. If it were when I first became a magical girl, I probably wouldn't be your match."

At this point, Dujuan instead became neither anxious nor angry. If the Disaster Control Bureau and Azure Cloud Sect had noticed the commotion, they should have come long ago.

Since there was still no movement, it meant those useless people hadn't discovered her.

Even if they discovered her, it didn't matter - she could sense the captain's aura, so she wasn't worried at all.

"What a pity you encountered me. You don't need to feel sad about your defeat - among magical girls, I'm considered outstanding. Losing to me is your honor, Jiang Si. You're strong, stronger than your magical girl sister."

However, the other party clearly had no interest in communication, charging again toward the sky full of magical pillars!

Dujuan shook her head and laughed scornfully: "So despairing that you want to commit suicide?"

Large numbers of magical pillars divided and twisted into whips, dancing wildly between the two, weaving an impenetrable defensive net.

Then, she saw the charging Jiang Si suddenly lower his body, actually flying in through the gaps in the magical net close to the ground!

It was indeed flying - his feet barely touched the ground, and the magical energy permeating the ground couldn't catch him. In the blink of an eye, he actually passed through the magical net she had woven and arrived beneath her.

His right foot stepped forward, firmly stepping on her instep. Even with magical defense, she still felt pain. A fierce light flashed in Dujuan's eyes as she vigorously waved her magic wand, causing large amounts of magical energy to rapidly contract, rushing toward Jiang Si from all directions!

Nowhere to escape!

However, Dujuan discovered that the young man beneath her had no intention of escaping at all.

The young body compressed, tightened, muscles bulging like springs storing energy.

The heat waves from evaporating sweat and surging blood energy seemed to materialize, clearly visible.

Then, before the enveloping magical energy arrived, that body suddenly sprang up!

A steel cannon-like fist instantly pierced through the magical energy, smashing into her chin!

Six Paths, Samsara Fist!

For a moment, Dujuan thought she had been hit by a speeding train.

A magical girl's body actually being sent airborne by a human's punch...

The moment Dujuan landed, the terrifying magical energy gathering from the surroundings simultaneously submerged Jiang Si!

Rolling twice in the muddy ground, Dujuan finally stopped, and then the magical energy beneath her helped her up.

Touching her chin - feeling such clear pain in magical girl form was quite rare.

But it quickly disappeared.

When fighting Disaster Beasts, such impacts were commonplace. For magical girls, it wasn't enough to leave wounds.

"You really are a monster."

Even Dujuan's tone carried some weariness, then she took a breath. "Injuring a Seedling magical girl relying solely on a trained physical body - you can be proud of that, Jiang Si. Unfortunately, this is as far as it goes. Magical energy is a power beyond your imagination. Even your all-out, life-risking attack is nothing more than a minor injury to me."

The magical energy enveloping Jiang Si opposite gradually dispersed. His upper clothes were somewhat tattered, his entire body thoroughly soaked with contaminated magical energy, blood flowing down his forehead covering his right eye.

His head hung low, breathing lightly, as if finally exhausted.

Looking at the seemingly powerless young man, she actually couldn't help but feel relieved.

Although there was no actual danger, the other party's fierce attacks had still given her considerable psychological pressure.

Seeing him finally lose the ability to continue fighting, she couldn't help but feel relieved.

However, the other party clearly had no interest in communication, charging again toward the magical pillars dancing across the sky!

"I can't imagine what kind of terrifying existence you would be if you possessed magical energy. But unfortunately, that possibility won't be seen, because I will turn you into the most perfect Disaster Beast! You will be the most powerful Disaster Beast in history!"

Dujuan's tone grew increasingly excited, her steps quicker. "Be angry, suffer pain! All your efforts poured out can't compare to magical girls' momentary whims! Release all your despair and resentment! They will devour the entire world! I will bring you..."

Her words suddenly stopped, her steps halting.

Dujuan seemed like someone had grabbed her by the throat - all movements ceased abruptly.

That young man with his head lowered, bearing some injuries, standing unsteadily - at some point, he held a seed in his hand.

A purple seed, so deep it appeared black.

The cool night breeze brushed past, fallen leaves drifting onto his shoulders. Dujuan stared blankly at Jiang Si. "You..."

"Heaven and Earth are not humane."

The young man's tone was solemn, and faintly, the sound of a bell rang from somewhere.

The contaminated magical energy around them madly rushed over!

"Treating all things as straw dogs."

"Transform."

Purple flames shot straight into the sky!

Like a swirling tornado, sweeping away all the contaminated magical energy in the surroundings!

When the flames dispersed, small purple boots decorated with golden patterns lightly touched the ground, then settled.

Rainbow-colored ribbons at the ends were semi-transparent like fading fragmented light. On the purple and gold interwoven Lolita-style dress, ancient yet simple star and moon hollow patterns had purple magical energy surging within.

Within the gorgeous attire, that delicate face seeming veiled by faint moonlight was rare even among magical girls. The exquisitely perfect facial features appeared somewhat youthful, adorned by cute butterfly knots among the purple hair.

But the calm, icy gaze formed a strong contrast with her appearance.

Even making the tense Dujuan lose focus for a moment.

Beautiful, powerful, mysterious... purple magical girl.

In BH City, there was only one.

Dujuan's shocked expression remained dazed for a long time before she finally spoke with difficulty, her tone extremely bitter. "Shion..."

"The warm-up is over."

The girl's tone was indifferent. "Let's begin the real battle."
