"...Did you kill them?"
The nightingale flew in the air, dispelling the defensive magic that had been placed on the hyacinth, and murmured softly.
Hyacinth remained vigilant, still embracing the pose of piercing the deer-headed monster's magical core with her greatsword.
Hyacinth breathed a sigh of relief only after the monster completely dissipated into magical particles, and the greatsword transformed back into a magic wand in her hand.
"It was destroyed when you pierced its magic core," Iris added.
"I know, but just to be on the safe side, it's better to make sure we've completely eliminated them before stopping," Hyacinth nodded in reply.
This habit was forced out of Xin Yuehu.
If not 100%, at least 90% of the monsters summoned by that golden-haired fox girl have hidden backup energy sources, and can always launch an unexpected counterattack when they seem to be defeated.
I've suffered countless losses in this area, and I've developed a habit of finishing off opponents.
"This guy is pretty strong, he can take a lot of hits, and his attributes are excellent in all aspects."
Hyacinth looked around at the mess in the library garden and commented on the deer-headed monster she had just seen.
The two people landed next to their companion, and the three of them looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, and low-level magic missiles can't penetrate its magic defense; you need a magic cannon," Iris complained.
"But speaking of which, Hyacinth, it seems like your magic hasn't been used up at all."
Just as she was about to step forward and unleash her healing magic, Nightingale suddenly noticed the magical energy emanating from her companion and exclaimed in surprise.
The latter nodded.
"Hmm, it's probably because of the magic storm. I feel that my magic power is much stronger than usual. If I don't use magic frequently, I can even maintain it at full strength," Hyacinth replied.
Although he can draw magic from the astral plane, the total amount his body can hold is limited.
If you output too much magic power in a short period of time, even you will enter a state of magic depletion. Fortunately, you will not lose control like the Cheshire Rabbit. You can replenish your magic power after resting for a while.
Under the influence of the abundant magic brought by the magic storm, Hyacinth could feel its magic being continuously absorbed and restored.
Even Nightingale, who is extremely reliant on magic, has seen her endurance increase by at least half, and I, a melee fighter who doesn't consume much magic to begin with, have entered a state of almost unlimited endurance.
I'm incredibly strong right now! Hyacinth is full of confidence.
"In that case, I also feel that there is much more magic around me than before, and the power of the magic cannon has also increased."
Iris added,
"I was initially quite worried that the increasing number of weirdos might cause us trouble, but now it seems... it's actually quite easy."
"Yes, after all, the essence of the magic storm is that there is more magic, and everyone has become stronger," Hyacinth replied with a smile.
"But I have a question. If our magic becomes stronger, will Xin Yuehu and the others also...?"
But before the hyacinth could answer its companion's question, a voice from the sky preemptively responded:
"Of course, I've become even stronger too!"
"！！！！"
Hyacinth and Iris shuddered and looked up sharply toward the source of the sound, joining Nightingale, who belatedly tilted her head to look up at the sky.
Six figures of various colors floated in the air, their bodies supported by flying magic, emitting a faint magical aura.
Heart Moon Fox, and her villainous companions.
Hyacinth suddenly felt a chill down her spine.
I haven't run into the full version of the Heart Moon Fox team for almost a week. During this week, it's been mostly small skirmishes between the Cat and Fox duos, with no large-scale attacks at all.
Just when he was about to forget about the full version of the villainous five-man group, this unexpected surprise came out of nowhere.
"Heart, Heart Moon Fox!"
Hyacinth quickly transformed into a greatsword in her hand, its blade pointing directly at the golden figure.
"And where did you come from! Could it be this deer-headed monster...?"
"Shh, shut up. Don't blame everything on me, Miss Hyacinth."
Heart Moon Fox interrupted Hyacinth's classic line, and said with a smile.
Hyacinth knew that her words were completely thoughtless and blurted out unconsciously. After struggling for a while, she didn't know how to respond, so she could only force a sarcastic remark:
"Then...what are you doing here! Are you trying to destroy the city?!"
"Need you even ask? Of course I'm here to play with you guys! As for destroying the city... well, that depends on how you guys behave!"
The fox spirit's face was full of a joyful smile, and she answered everything he said, but Hyacinth couldn't smile at all. Her eyelids twitched violently, and she had a bad feeling.
—But! I'm in excellent form today! Hyacinth remains full of confidence.
The Burning Wind Squad has received news of Xin Yuehu's appearance and is rushing here. As long as they can hold off Xin Yuehu and her group, they can wait for the Burning Wind Squad's reinforcements.
With the overflowing magic power brought by the magic storm, the magical girls' power was greatly enhanced, and Hyacinth felt that she could fight Hellcat for a whole day without any problems.
"Don't even try! You're definitely thinking of messing with the library, aren't you? I won't let you destroy this place!"
Hyacinth shouted loudly, unleashing her full magic power. Her greatsword emitted a brilliant sky-blue aura, giving the impression that she was about to engage in a five-hundred-round battle.
His magic power was inexhaustible; if he could just hold off the Hellcat until reinforcements arrived, maybe...
However, the strange blue guardian star that appeared in Hellcat's hand shattered Hyacinth's fantasy.
"—Buzz!!"
The guardian star did not shatter, but transformed into a flowing galaxy, enveloping the Hellcat in surging starlight magic.
A flash of light streaked across the sky, and the girl's formal attire billowed in the storm of magic.
The cat paw gauntlets turned jet black in the dazzling light, and the accretion disk of magic swirled around the black hole cat fists. Her heterochromatic cat eyes radiated a smile as she watched her prey.
Magical Girl Hellcat☆Shadow of the Stars!
"No sportsmanship! How could you start with Starry Night Shadow right away!" Hyacinth's pupils dilated in shock.
"Hehehe, that's not up to you, Miss Hyacinth."
The golden-haired fox girl, who was using the cat girl's power to intimidate others, poked half her head out from behind her and chuckled as she spoke.
"Kitty! Take down the Hyacinth before the Fenfeng Squad arrives! Quickly and decisively!"
……
Two minutes later.
The hyacinth stands calmly in the dark world of the mind.
The Hellcat in its Black Hole Cat Fist form is incredibly powerful, so powerful that it doesn't seem like a creature from the real world. It's the kind of creature that can sit at the same table as a celestial behemoth.
Before he even had a chance to unleash his Starry Shadow, a single Cat Punch Ora combo took him down.
But... is it another mental imagery world...?
Nan Xiaofeng thought helplessly.
Xin Yuehu is so strong, she's like a monster.
Not only were there unheard-of summoning spells, but also this "Mindscape" technique, and those strange props she pulled out from who-knows-where, all of which always gave her a sense of awe.
But what's the point of locking herself in here this time? Didn't she always lock everyone in together to play her so-called "entertainment games" before?
"—Wake up, it's time to eat."
A gentle call rang in my ears.
Hyacinth snapped out of her daze, opened her eyes abruptly, and sat up from the soft bed, covered in sweat.
...Where is this place?
The cabinet was filled with various magical girl toys, and the walls were covered with posters, giving it a strong sense of déjà vu.
Isn't this my bedroom?!
"Look how much you're sweating! What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?"
Not far away, the fox spirit, dressed casually at home, stood at the bedside with concern, tidying up the clothes she had just put away while looking in her direction.
Hyacinth didn't know how to answer.
All of this was so unfamiliar, yet so familiar, reminding me of the last time I met Xin Yuehu alone.
Could it be that……
A bad feeling crept into her heart. Hyacinth rolled out of bed, ran to the full-length mirror, and looked at the petite girl in the mirror with a shocked expression—
I've become smaller.
Her soft hair was draped over her shoulders, and she wore a light blue nightgown. Her small face was filled with a look of surprise.
"Why do you look like that? Did you have a terrible dream?"
The fox spirit circled behind her, leaned close to her face, looked at the petite girl in the mirror, and showed a doting smile.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."
"With Mommy by your side, all the scary things will fly away~"
Hyacinth wanted to shout in her mind, "This is fake! This is a conspiracy by Heart Moon Fox!"
……But,
Her embrace was so warm that one lingered there, reluctant to leave.
