Looking at Elina before her, Red Ponytail felt murderous intent for the first time. She sensed from Elina the things she hated most—chaos, madness, and evil. Those things should never have appeared in a Magical Girl, yet this girl had used her powers as a Magical Girl to spread chaos wantonly. In a sense, she had violated every doctrine.
That left her with only one outcome: death!
"Ahahahahaha!!!"
Elina threw open her arms with a mad laugh. Countless watercolor hues surged out from behind her like a flood.
With a sweep of her hands, two green cubes spun into view and rapidly expanded—
But this time, Red Ponytail gave her no chance to deploy her barrier. A flash of fire flickered in her hand, and the two cubes were instantly burned to ashes.
"What is this?!"
Elina's eyes widened in shock at the sight.
"You burned the barrier directly? Elina doesn't know about something like this. Elina never knew something like this could happen!!"
"There's a lot you don't know!"
Having destroyed Elina's summoned barrier with one strike, Red Ponytail snapped back. At the same time, she swung Frostmourne down hard with her left hand. A bone-piercing cold wind erupted, freezing the surging paints and watercolors into a mass of ice.
Then Red Ponytail charged forward in three quick strides, and her blade pierced Elina's body without hesitation.
A dark shadow fell from the sky and crashed heavily onto the ground.
"Whew..."
Red Ponytail took a deep breath, then released the red greatsword that had pierced Elina's body and tightened her grip on the Pitch Black Greatsword. Elina, her body impaled, coughed up blood and stared at Red Ponytail with a grin.
"Hey, what are you doing? What are you planning to do to Elina?"
"You'll find out soon enough.
