Chapter 54: Madness
“Who is it! How dare you sneak attack…”
“It’s your auntie, what’s wrong? Are you not convinced?” The black scythe spun and flew back into the girl’s hand, her blood-red eyes glaring at the detestable creature, her face filled with disdain and mockery.
“If you’re not convinced, come and kill me, can you do it?”
As she spoke, the girl raised her other hand, giving the creature the middle finger. Compared to Xia Mo, who had just faced a grave threat, she appeared much more relaxed, as if the creature before her was something she could easily handle.
Gray-black butterflies danced around her, and such a characteristic was possessed by only one person in Xinghai City.
“Dark Butterfly?” Luo Shuangxing exclaimed in surprise. Dark Butterfly actually appeared at this time to help them?
“Dark Butterfly!” Xia Mo felt somewhat relieved. This creature clearly meant no good. If she and her two juniors had to face both an enemy and a magical beast at the same time, they would likely find themselves in a tough battle.
The ideal situation would be for Xia Mo to hold off this creature while Linglan and Siam dealt with the magical beast. However, without anyone unleashing power beyond their limits, the outcome of the battle would surely not be favorable.
Xia Mo’s full-strength magic cannon couldn’t harm the creature, and Linglan and Siam couldn’t inflict lethal damage on the magical beast. At this rate, the magical girls would face a slow, agonizing defeat.
Just when they found themselves in this dilemma, Dark Butterfly descended like a savior.
“Don’t be so familiar; I just find this guy annoying,” Luo Shuangyue said coldly, pointing her scythe toward the creature in the distance. “If I’m not mistaken, you’re the Tyrant Python from Snake Fang, right?”
“And if I am?”
“Since you’re new here, I’ll give you a choice. Just kneel and bow three times, then obediently roll out of Xinghai City, and I’ll spare your life. How about that?”
Her dismissive tone instantly enraged the Tyrant Python. He was a senior officer of Snake Fang, and no one in Illusion Mushroom City dared to underestimate him!
And this Dark Butterfly, a little blonde girl who wasn’t even well-known in Xinghai City, had the audacity to look down on him like that!
How could he endure this?!
“Die!”
The creature’s arm transformed into a huge python and lunged at Luo Shuangyue, but Luo Shuangyue, already prepared, simply waved her scythe, and the python’s head silently fell off from its body.
Your physical strength is impressive, but I wield a formidable scythe!
Gray magical energy swirled around the wound on the python’s arm, making the Tyrant Python grimace in pain. This magic not only obstructed the wound’s regeneration but also siphoned off his life force.
This method was truly ruthless.
“Refusing to drink a toast and opting for a punishment drink, you’re staying here today!”
Luo Shuangyue’s body transformed into countless fluttering butterflies that scattered, and the next moment, these butterflies reassembled in front of the Tyrant Python as Luo Shuangyue, the scythe that had just severed the python’s arm now hovering above his head.
Boom!
At the last moment, the Tyrant Python barely dodged the direct strike of the scythe, but still got hit by Luo Shuangyue’s transformed attack, retreating in embarrassment.
When fighting unfamiliar opponents, Luo Shuangyue adhered to her principle of being fierce and saying little. Every blow aimed to kill.
Previously, when facing magical girls, she had been holding back, not using such brutal tactics. After all, her own mother was a magical girl; she could not truly kill those girls.
But now, facing an utterly villainous foe, killing him was for the betterment of the world, so Luo Shuangyue had no qualms about going all out, immediately entering her optimal combat state.
With her ghostly figure, her unclear butterfly teleportation, and her scythe imbued with a strange aura, all three combined allowed the Tyrant Python to barely defend against her attacks, with no energy left to counter.
The process of the battle left Xia Mo on the side stunned. So Dark Butterfly was that strong? Did I even have the right to have her unleash her full power before?
“Don’t worry about Dark Butterfly for now. Let’s focus on dealing with the magical beast!” Xia Mo shook her head; this wasn’t the time for existential doubts, they still had a big problem to resolve!
“Senior, hurry! I’m almost being eaten!”
In the moment Xia Mo was distracted, Siam and Luo Shuangxing were still struggling to divert the magical beast’s attention, but without Xia Mo’s output support, the magical beast was gradually closing in on Siam. If this continued, it would soon be able to grab her.
However, it had no opportunity to advance any further. Just because the two rookie magical girls couldn’t handle it, didn’t mean it was an easy fight.
Whoosh! Boom!
A purple radiance cut through the sky, blasting the magical beast to the side.
The magic wand in Xia Mo’s hand radiated dazzling purple light, and a gigantic magic circle appeared before her, taller than a person. She raised her hand, the lines in the magic circle lighting up one by one.
Then, the brilliance erupted.
