Chapter 556

"However, you did nothing."

"But now, when she returns, you're forced to watch helplessly R'lyeh launches another war against her, repeating the mistakes of the past."

What are you thinking about?

Ever since she learned that Haihara was the former Overlord Lilith, this question had been constantly on her mind.

Since Her Majesty the Queen has been paying attention to Haihara all along, she must know that the other party is the real Lilith. It's impossible that she wouldn't realize this, since that was her former beloved lover.

However, the result was that the Overlord was resurrected.

After the Overlord is resurrected, he remains unchanged from hundreds of years ago, and the Queen herself will lead the Witch of R'lyeh to seal or even kill him, just as she did three hundred years ago.

She simply couldn't understand it.

If the ultimate goal is to kill the other party, why go back to this point?

If you couldn't bear to kill the other person, why did you let them go unchecked?

"Ah, so that's what it is."

Al White seemed to have finally understood his daughter's thoughts.

But instead of answering Thousand Sins's question, she smiled and responded with her own question.

"So, what do you think I should do?"

It's clear that we can't expect to get any truth from Her Majesty the Queen right now.

Even the voice and tone of that smile were very similar to the Overlord in Thousand Sins's memories.

Having two mothers like that is truly unfortunate.

However, the clashing blades were then stained by an intense brilliance, the burst of light briefly turning the scene into pure white. Before the colors returned, in the barely discernible light, Thousand Sins's figure had already been blasted away.

"Or, another question, Magic Girl Thousand Sins, what should you do? What will you do?"

The woman's melodious and noble voice reached the girl's ears.

"Me...?"

Thousand Sins quickly regained his balance, his mind filled with a jumble of thoughts, which quickly cooled down until he realized he had strayed from the point.

Now, she's doing what she's supposed to do.

It's time to get back to the fight itself.

Upon realizing this, she seemed to immediately unleash some kind of Moon-Type Magic.

But before that.

Queen Al White had already lightly slashed her sword through the air, and instantly, countless sword lights that bloomed like lotus flowers transformed into holy silver swords. As she lightly touched the air with her swords, all the swords flew out.

From this point on, the Queen switched from defense to offense.

Before Thousand Sins at this moment were streaks of sword light that would arrive in the next instant, their sheer sharpness enough to pierce the eye.

But she was prepared.

She raised the Cross-shaped Great Nail and thrust it into the void, like a key unlocking the shackles of time and space. Instantly, a dazzling, star-like brilliance appeared before Thousand Sins. Space first cracked open with a cross-shaped fissure, then quickly unfolded into a teleportation portal.

No, it's not just one side of the story.

Countless such cross-shaped gates, like a sky full of stars, open wide, revealing a deep and colorful sea of stars, stretching across the land like a scroll painting of the night.

The lightsabers, as numerous as a rain of stars, entered those doors and were transported to the Universe.

--- Moon Magic, Star Gate.

But this is just the beginning.

The Queen quickly noticed that the earth around her suddenly cracked open and shook violently, as if some enormous creature was about to emerge from the ground. With a series of deafening roars, she saw huge vines intertwined with black and red branches.

Thousand Sins raised a hand, and then—his five fingers suddenly clenched together.

The next moment, those towering vines, like tentacles, attacked Queen Al White, covering the sky and imprisoning her layer by layer.

At this moment, the Holy Tree Duke, who was watching the battle, was somewhat surprised---

"This is... the Magic of the Flower Demon King?"

This scene was all too familiar to her.

As Flower Crown Rank Holder has lived for countless years, she personally fought against the Flower Demon King in her youth and witnessed this style of combat.

Giant, blood-red vine tentacles were raging wildly across the land, stirring up a sandstorm-like haze.

The sky darkened rapidly as the wildly growing crimson magic vines enveloped the innermost Queen, simultaneously absorbing the Magic Power from nature and other Magic girls.

But this certainly didn't last long.

A towering blood vine that had been feasting on Magic Power suddenly froze.

Then, countless white slashes appeared all over its body, the clean lines seemingly without a trace, and then spread outwards, instantly covering all the plants.

A burst of light flashed, and the sword light instantly obliterated all obstacles. Even the sky was covered with sword marks at this moment, illuminated by pure white light.

The demonic vines turned to ashes and vanished in pure white smoke.

However, the Queen, who emerged from the ordeal, witnessed an even more interesting scene.

"That is?"

Al White's vision was filled with that sight in the sky.

It was a symphony of swords and light in the sky, an intricate and endless canopy composed of countless sword flashes, blooming like a lotus flower.

The sky was bathed in the same color by the curtain of swords radiating crimson light. Thousands upon thousands of sword lights overlapped into ripples, resonating with each other to form sword lotuses, and these sword lotuses were countless in an instant.

This was orchestrated and initiated by Thousand Sins himself during the brief moment when the Queen was trapped.

At this moment, she stood still in the sky depicted by the sword, her hand lightly drawing Cross Nail, gathering the crimson tail flame, while thousands of illusory swords rang out in response.

This time, it was Dailuoluo who was stunned.

"---My Magic?"

The Little Princess froze completely, her fiery red eyes reflecting the very attack she was best at.

How did you do that?

"Begin the performance---"

Thousand Sins had already used the Magic Armament as a command flag, slashing downwards.

That was the sword Magic that the Royal Family was so proud of.

Although Thousand Sins does not possess the Light Magic Power, she learned the Phantom Sword Magic of Dark Kite, combined and modified it, and created the same moves.

"---- Royal Symphony."

The grand and solemn royal performance has begun.

The millions of sword lotuses descended like a divine judgment, with holy lightning replacing the destructive crimson lightning, yet both possessing astonishing power.

And what was the Queen's response?

She raised her sword, and then, as if acting on her own will, a dazzling and sacred thousand-bladed lotus of swords bloomed around her. At that moment, heaven and earth seemed to become the boundary between paradise and hell.

It's just that hell is above and heaven is below.

The pure white sword light shot upwards, and the Magic Power of the light and the snake collided and canceled each other out once more.

Countless flashes of swords and the clang of blades blended together to create an incomparably grand symphony.

Amidst the clashing sea of swords, the Queen's gaze pierced through the chaotic battlefield, finally locking onto Thousand Sins.

Then---take a step forward.

Literally, she transformed into light and, in a near-stillness of time, arrived at the location of the Thousand Sins.

"Varied---"

Before Thousand Sins could even utter a sound, the Queen had already slashed down with her sword.

Just as the sword light was about to strike, Thousand Sins transformed into a chaotic, scattered mass of black Asuka. The birds quickly dispersed and then regrouped behind and below the Queen.

Thousand Sins had just raised his dark gold Cross Nail to strike.

---Before that, the Queen's sword had already fallen.

"-------boom!"

She was cleaved away by a single sword strike and fell like a meteor.

The Queen was creating more sword phantoms, which was merely a casual matter for her.

But Thousand Sins is far from being unable to fight anymore.

Just before the sword light was about to arrive and inflict a severe blow on her, suddenly, the entire world seemed to ripple with barely perceptible waves.

By the time someone noticed something was wrong, it was too late.

Time stops.

The entire world was stained with the color of mercury, and everything froze and stopped flowing at this moment, as if frozen into stillness.

The expressions of all the Magic girls watching the battle, each with their own unique features, were frozen in place.

Only Thousand Sins retain their color.

She saw the sword of light that would pierce her if she were a moment too late.

She couldn't move for long while in the frozen time, and the Magic consumed a lot of Magic Power. She simply kept her distance from the lightsabers while observing the Queen's further offensive, and finally made her judgment.

When she reached the weakest point of the sword light, she once again pulled the strings of Magic Power, using moonlight-like divine radiance to sculpt an exquisitely beautiful longbow.

At the same time, time began to flow again.

"Locking---"

This time, the world is no longer bathed in blood red or pure white, but in the most tranquil and sacred deep blue moonlight.

The moonlight transformed into an arrow that would surely hit its mark, as if blessed by the stars and destiny, foreshadowing its brilliance.

The strings are fully drawn, shining like a full moon.

------Whoosh.

"----- Moonlight Waltz!"

The beautiful, melodious bowbeats pierced the sky, moonlight ripped through the heavens, splitting into a dazzling rain of light like the Milky Way, clashing with countless sword flashes, while the central beam, like a shooting star, pointed directly at the Queen.

The Queen remained unmoved.

After all, this arrow couldn't possibly hurt her.

The task this time is no different: raise your sword, and cut down all obstacles, nothing more...

She revealed the edge of her sword, meeting the incoming Moon Arrow.

----The next moment, an arrow pierced through the longsword in her hand.

"----Bang!"

With that crisp sound, the sword in the Queen's hand shattered.

Volume Four Does This Count as a Magical Girl??: Chapter 73 Hero and Madman

What is a Magic girl?

An animated hero, a savior in despair, an incredible being who creates miracles?

In R'lyeh, that doesn't seem to be the whole definition.

However, when it comes to real Magic girls, everyone will unanimously think of the original Magic girl— R'lyeh.

Compared to the later Queen who were full of glory and splendor, R'lyeh did not even consider herself Queen during her lifetime, and no one gave her a royal title, because she never considered herself a "king" who ruled over everyone.

She did not consider herself to be anything.

All she possessed was the desire itself.

She herself is a light that illuminates others, a hope that guides everyone on the path forward.

---Brave.
