Danger at Every Turn

The Witch that killed Mami Senior Ba had a doll as her true body.

However, although this doll could be injured by weapons, it was difficult to kill.

Because it was a nesting doll. Every time it was killed, it shed one layer. Only by destroying all the outer layers could it be completely killed.

Last time, Mami Senior Ba had been too careless. She thought she had killed the Witch, forgot to watch behind her, and tragically had her head bitten off by the Witch.

So, before entering the Grief Seed this time, Zhou Xiaoming formulated a strategy based on the information they had.

Zhou Xiaoming said, "Here's the plan. Xiaoyuan and Xiaomei both use ranged weapons, so Xiaoyuan and Xiaomei will handle the long-range attacks. From a distance, deal the maximum possible damage to the Witch."

"Xiang Xiang and Xingzi are both warrior-type Magical Girls who use close-range attacks, so stay at the front as much as possible. Hold off the Witch and keep her from getting close to Xiaoyuan and Xiaomei while they attack from afar."

"Of course, there's one more thing I need to emphasize. If the Witch proves stronger than expected and we truly can't handle her, retreat immediately. We can try again next time once everyone has grown stronger."

"In short, there must be no meaningless sacrifices."

Zhou Xiaoming gave that final emphasis.

"Mm, understood!"

The girls all nodded together.

After making thorough preparations.

They arrived at the place where the Grief Seed had grown and entered its interior together.

Zhou Xiaoming, dressed in a school uniform and carrying a baseball bat, followed the girls inside as well.

Huh~

This was very strange. Normally, ordinary people could neither see a Grief Seed nor enter it, yet Zhou Xiaoming had gone in alongside the girls.
