She'd rather die than become one of those 'puppets' of the Crocodile Brotherhood!

(... This plot... how to put it, it's hard to judge)

(Although Harvey was Aurora's uncle, I think his death was actually a good thing for Aurora.)

(Gamblers don't deserve sympathy. Although he was good to Aurora, since he didn't quit gambling, he's utterly despicable!)

(Alright, respect the dead, Aurora is still watching...)

(Even if little Aurora is watching, I have to say this! It's better for Aurora to die than for this kind of gambler, otherwise... who knows when he might sell little Aurora off!)

(... Speaking of which, are gangs in the Americas District really this brazen? Kidnapping people in the street?)

(Bro, you outsiders probably don't understand, but some of the work of the Americas District gangs is protected by law, so...)

(Wow, I've learned something new.)

The Crocodile Brotherhood famous.

It has become famous globally in every sense of the word.

But this isn't a good reputation.

No matter what, the Crocodile Brotherhood is just a city gang; no matter how big its influence, it can't reach other cities and regions.

And Magical Girls fans... are all over the world!

Although Aurora's story has only just begun, she has already gained countless fans in just over ten minutes thanks to her petite, cute, and somewhat arrogant image.

Among these fans, who knows how many are powerful and influential, and who knows how many are enemies of the Crocodile Brotherhood.

Fang Ming could foresee that this underground gang, which had been rampant in N City for a long time, would soon be 'removed' from the list by righteous people from all walks of life.

This could be a good thing for both N City and Aurora.

At least it avenged Aurora.

But when this was brought up, Fang Ming asked Kelly, "How is Aurora doing now?"

"She didn't react much, Mr. Fang Ming, there's no need to worry. This child is actually very strong. So much time has passed, she's long since let it go, and besides..."

Kelly sighed, looked up at Harvey's body receding into the distance against the Sky Screen, and whispered:

"This guy brought it on himself. The comments are right. If Harvey were still alive, he might have risked everything and sold Aurora out one day. So although it was cruel to Aurora, I still think... Harvey's death was fitting."

Harvey is a gambler, but that's not really Harvey fault.

Because gambling is not prohibited in the Americas District, most people, except for a small minority, have been to casinos, and there are quite a few gamblers like Harvey.

They may have been exposed to similar games from a young age, and without anyone correcting them, these habits can easily become ingrained.

To put it bluntly, if Aurora continues to grow up with Harvey, she might one day also get involved in gambling.

This has nothing to do with personality or temperament; it's purely a matter of environment.

The environment in the Americas District is too chaotic. Many industries that are illegal in the Central Continent District are legal here. The shortcomings of the Federation system of regional autonomy are on full display here.

Fortunately, as Kelly and some viewers commented, Harvey is dead, but Aurora still has a chance to make amends.

Aurora is still running.

She ran away crying.

Harvey's death saddened her, and the pursuit by the Crocodile Brotherhood filled her with terror.

She knew she couldn't go home, because the Crocodile Brotherhood definitely send people to guard the place. She also knew she couldn't stop, because if she did, a dark future awaited her.

Aurora was simply running, relying on her over ten years of 'experience' to run through the streets and alleys.

Without purpose or goal, they were only thinking about escaping their pursuers.

But the gangsters behind him were getting closer and closer.

They're a gang that chases after debtors every day, chasing countless people. They're the ones who are best at running through alleyways.

Although Aurora ran very fast, she was still a girl, and given her height, it was only a matter of time before she was caught up.

"Huff... huff... this girl can run pretty fast... but... we still caught up with her, didn't we?"

The leader, dressed in a white suit and clearly a debt collector boss, surrounded Aurora with his men.

The debt collector leader, still wearing sunglasses in the Night Demon, stared at Aurora with a wicked smile and said:

"Young lady, I advise you to obediently come back with us. Debts must be repaid; that principle applies everywhere. As long as you obediently come back with us and make up for what you owe... um..."

"... It's Uncle," a subordinate whispered a reminder.

"Oh right, once you pay off your uncle's debt, you'll be free. Don't worry, although we're a gang, we're a reasonable gang. As long as you pay back the money, we won't care where you go after that."

The man in the white suit said with a smile.

Judging from his kind appearance, he seems to really be a good person.

But Aurora knew that once she joined the Crocodile Brotherhood, all that awaited Aurora was endless work and money she could never repay.

They will drain Aurora of all her value until she dies.

Will paying off the debt buy me freedom?

Keep dreaming.

Gangsters are not philanthropists!

"I'd rather die than... wait?"

Aurora was about to say something harsh, but suddenly she looked behind the man in the white suit and her expression froze.

The man in the white suit gave Aurora a disdainful smile upon seeing her expression.

"Kid, I stopped using those tricks when I was fifteen. They won't fool me at all—"

"Aaaaaah!!!!!"

The leader in the white suit had only spoken halfway when his men behind him suddenly let out bloodcurdling screams.

Hearing the shout, the man in the white suit realized that Aurora hadn't lied to him; she really had seen something behind him!

He whirled around to see what was behind him.

But he quickly froze, letting out the same scream as his younger brother:

"What the hell is this?!"

Behind them, a 'strange person' covered in a beetle-like shell was 'opening his heart' to one of their members.

The image was pixelated, and the spilled blood was a shimmering pink, but everyone knew it was just a decorative effect on the Sky Screen.

So the truth is that one of the debt collectors was disemboweled by this Shell Monster and died on the spot.

"Fire! Fire!!"

The man in the white suit could no longer maintain his composure and ordered his men to fire.

The men drew their pistols, aimed them at the approaching Shell Monster, and pulled the triggers.

Bang bang bang bang!

Gunshots rang out, flashes of light streaked across the small, dark alley, and the clanging and banging sounds echoed incessantly.

Even without watching the screen, just listening to the constant 'clanging' sound is enough to understand what's happening.

That's right, the bullets failed to penetrate the enemy's armor. Humanity's pride and joy—its firearms—were like cotton hitting a wooden board in front of the Shell Monster, leaving no trace.

"Ah... Ahhh!!!"

Another gang member has been wiped out by the shelled monster.

Their previous actions seemed to have enraged it, causing its fierce eyes to lock onto them.

A one-sided massacre had begun.

The footage did not show the massacre; the entire scene consisted only of screams, gunshots, and various splattered pink blood.

The camera remained focused on Aurora, casting shadows on her and letting everyone know that she had been watching the whole scene.

Aurora seemed to be paralyzed with fear, collapsing to the ground and remaining motionless.

Just as the monsters were rampaging through the area, Aurora's phone suddenly vibrated, followed by a voice in her ear:

"Hey, if you don't want to die, stand up... and use me!"

A light and pleasant voice rang out from the phone, and Aurora looked blankly at the phone in her hand.

Who was speaking just now?

Chapter 193 Aurora's Transformation Time!

(Holy crap! What is this monster?!)

(Demons? Doesn't look like one!)

(Of course not! The Demons will only devour your dreams along with your thoughts, it won't go that bloody!)

(It looks a bit like a monster from some monster movies...)

(Could it have escaped from some lab again?)

(... ah?)

(Don't be surprised, this is just routine practice in the Americas District...)

(Next, Aurora and Kelly should make a contract and then transform, right?)

The plot took a sharp turn for the worse in the second half, with the appearance of various new characters and the introduction of new settings, sparking heated discussions in the live chat.

Some are speculating about the blue-haired Magical Girls's identity, while others, like 'prophet's, have guessed that the monster might be connected to certain laboratories in the Americas District.

Some people are also discussing Aurora's appearance after her transformation.

However, Fang Ming had already seen Aurora's transformed appearance, knew that Aurora's next transformation would definitely shock everyone.

Aurora looked at the front of her phone. On the lit screen, a cute anime girl with deer antlers on her head was positioned in the very center of the screen.

She raised her hand to greet Aurora, then said to her:

"Stop looking. If you don't want to die, do as I say."

"Who... who are you?!"

Aurora stared in surprise at the antlered girl on her phone, completely bewildered by the situation.

The girl said, "You can call me K. We can save the more detailed self-introduction for later, provided you survive."

"!"

The words 'survive' instantly snapped Aurora back to reality. She looked up at the monster 'slaughtering' the gang members and asked Kelly:

"You... you know what this thing is?! You... you can save me?"

"I can save you, but if you hesitate any longer, it may become uncertain."

Kelly said, jumping off the screen to show Aurora the software that Aurora had been unable to open before, and then said:

"If you want to live, tap this with your finger."

Kelly pointed to the app and said.

Aurora was filled with questions. "Huh? Click this? What's it for?"

"Never mind that, just order!"

Kelly's tone became more anxious, because through her phone's camera, Kelly could "see" the monster approaching.

The useless gang members couldn't even hold out for a minute before they were all turned into skewers of candied hawthorns by the shelled monster's hands.

Not satisfied with slaughtering a group of ordinary humans, the shelled monster turned its lizard-like vertical pupils onto Aurora's body, and from its inhuman head, it stuck out a snake-like tongue.

"!!!"

Aurora was startled by the shelled monster. Her body trembled, and her legs, which were usually best at running away, were now completely immobilized as if they had been paralyzed.

She's had enough.

Harvey died in front of her, was being chased by gangsters, and now she's encountered this monster that only appears in horror movies.

"This must be a dream, right... Ha... Haha, it must be a dream, otherwise... how could Harvey have died, and how could such a monster appear in the real world..."

"... Aurora!!!"
