Kelly's voice came through the phone's speaker, her angry shouts bringing Aurora back to her senses.

Kelly stared blankly at her phone, met his gaze, and pointed to the "K" icon with her right hand, saying:

"Point to her!! Don't just stand there!!!"

"...!"

The monster was getting closer and closer. Aurora looked at her phone, gritted her teeth, and tapped the screen.

Whether it was a dream or some kind of chaotic Illusion, since the solution to the predicament was right in front of her, she had to give it a try!

Buzz--!

Her finger tapped the app on her phone, and a dazzling red light instantly enveloped the alleyway, completely covering Aurora's figure as well.

"Wha... what happened?! What's wrong?!"

Aurora, completely engulfed by the red light, screamed in panic.

Kelly's voice came again:

"Stop talking nonsense, quickly construct your Magical Armament, and then... go and destroy this guy!"

"Magic... armor?!"

Aurora didn't quite understand, but then a piece of information that inexplicably flowed into her mind made her realize what she should do.

She closed her eyes, silently sensing the power flowing through her body. When she opened her eyes again, Aurora knew what to do.

"--Transformation, begin!"

--The program has been loaded, and magic is being injected.

As an unknown electronic sound rang out, a K-shaped icon appeared in front of Aurora, and Aurora's exclusive transformation scene began at this moment!

The red "K" was positioned in front of and behind Aurora, and countless red lights covered Aurora's body in a crimson space.

As the light shifted, a phantom image appeared behind Aurora.

The person was dressed in a red Magical Girls outfit and held two swords of different appearances. She wrapped around Aurora from behind and suddenly transformed into countless points of light, merging into Aurora's body.

That person... is Chihiro!

She's also one of the Magical Girls silhouettes that appear behind Aurora in the opening sequence!

As Chihiro's light and shadow completely merged into Aurora's body, Aurora's Magical Armament was also completed at that moment!

Red armor, red metal gauntlets, red leg armor.

A mask covering only the eyes covered the face, a crimson light flashed in the eyes, and the burning flames finally scorched the entire space to ashes.

Aurora, now fully transformed, stood in the alleyway.

"!!"

Feeling the power within her body, and looking at her hands covered by metal gauntlets, Aurora was unable to react for a long time.

What are these...?

(Oh! I've finally transformed! I was so impatient before!!)

(Try to understand, Aurora has just experienced the loss of her loved ones and being hunted by the mob, and now monsters are chasing her. It's normal that she couldn't react immediately.)

(That means, when Xiao Qiu was caught up in the Nightmare Space, she was also in a daze for a long time, wasn't she?)

(Xiao Qiu and Aurora experienced things differently! Back then, although Xiao Qiu was also confused, she didn't face the Demons directly and had enough time to figure out the situation. But for Aurora... the monster was right in front of her!)

(I'll die if I don't transform immediately, why am I dawdling like this...)

(Tsk, some people are all talk and no action. If they were actually facing a monster like that, they'd probably be no match for Aurora.)

(Calm down, weren't all Magical Girls naive at the beginning?)

(So, didn't you guys notice that Aurora's transformation is different from Xiao Qiu's?)

(Wow, it looks so cool! That transformation is awesome!)

Aurora remained motionless on the Sky Screen for a long time before transforming, which drew criticism from some viewers.

Compared to Xiao Qiu's transformation in the first episode of the first season of the main series, Aurora's transformation is clearly more urgent and imminent.

Even if Xiao Qiu didn't transform, she could have found a safe place to hide within the barrier.

But for Aurora, the monster was right in front of her. She really had no other choice but to either transform into Magical Girls or become the monster's dinner like the other gang members.

In this situation, Aurora's hesitation until the very last moment before transforming is indeed frustrating for viewers.

But setting aside various external and God perspectives, for Aurora, having just experienced the loss of loved ones, being hunted, and witnessing supernatural phenomena...

All of this happened in just half an hour. Her mind must be in a mess, more chaotic than a ball of yarn tangled by a cat. For a girl who is only a teenager, it's already quite courageous that she wasn't scared out of her wits and could still move.

There's really no way to be too critical...

"Hmm... something seems off?" Kelly suddenly said.

Fang Ming blinked and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Well, although she did transform last, little Aurora didn't seem to hesitate for that long... Hmm, is it because of the scene transitions and editing? Or is it because of the background music?"

Kelly lowered her head in thought.

Fang Ming paused for a moment, then his eyes turned dead fish-like.

Got it. This was a subtle change made by the production team to make the plot more dramatic. Otherwise, who in real life would actually wait until the last second to start transforming?

Overall, it was a minor issue, and even the person involved thought they had misremembered, which proves that the production team did not change the main storyline.

So let's just fix these minor details.

Of course, it's also possible that because of the Sky Screen in reality, Aurora knew about the Magical Girls's existence beforehand, which allowed her to react quickly in the real world.

After all, in reality, the Sky Screen had already appeared when Aurora got the phone.

But then again... were there any personal touches from the production team in the first season? I can't quite remember... I'll have to watch it again.

"Little Ao, it's here!"

Aurora was still wondering what her current appearance was when Kelly's reminder suddenly rang in her ears.

Looking up, he saw a monster whose body couldn't be pierced by gunfire, charging towards him with its gaping maw about to bite him!

"Ahhh! Don't come any closer!!!"

Aurora frantically raised her hands, unleashing Twin-Fist Flurry that landed squarely on the monster in front of her.

With a dull, grating thud, the monster was sent flying backward, crashing into the wall beside the alley with a loud bang.

The rubble buried the monster, and Aurora stared at her hands in disbelief.

This... this monster who wiped out the entire gang, he just sent flying with a single punch?

Is my own power really that great?!

"What... what exactly is going on?"

Aurora muttered to herself.

Kelly took advantage of the enemy's brief moment of inactivity to explain, "This is your magic."

"Magic...?! Huh!? Does magic even exist in this world?!"

"I don't know much about this world, but what you're using is definitely your magic. If you pay close attention, you'll be able to sense what your magic is."

Each Magical Girls has her own unique magic.

Xiao Qiu's Light Shaping, Xiao Xia's Courage Enhancement, Xiao Chun's Healing and Sure Hit... Magical Girls' magic is related to their own Emotion Seed, but it's not absolute.

Even Emotion Seed of the same nature can give rise to completely different magic.

Aurora's magic is currently unknown, but judging from the incredible strength with which she sent the monster flying with a single punch, her magic is most likely related to strength.

Chapter 194 Who exactly is it? It's so hard to guess! (Read in a monotone tone)

Aurora's magic can be called 'Heart of Passion'.

Its ability is quite simple: strength.

But it's not just simple strength; it's the absolute power that can be unleashed when facing a stronger enemy or in dire straits.

It's purely numerical; there's no skill involved whatsoever.

Furthermore, the degree of power output is affected by Aurora's own emotions. The more Passion she is about something, the more intense her Passion becomes during battle, and the stronger the power she unleashes.

Conversely, the higher the value.

After the classic narration and Kelly's brief explanation, Aurora understood her own abilities.

Although it still felt somewhat unrealistic, Aurora had already figured out what she needed to do.

She looked up at the distant ruins, and a fighting spirit began to rise within her.

Aurora is not a coward at all; on the contrary, she dares to provoke those thugs during the day, and she is bolder than most people.

But the fact that the thing wasn't even afraid of firearms really frightened Aurora.

Even firearms can't harm it, so even if she charged at it with a brick, would she really be able to wipe it out?

Having run for so long, Aurora was already exhausted, which is why she collapsed to the ground and couldn't get up.

But now, with the power to deal with that monster, Aurora felt more confident.

Reason returned to Aurora's mind, and her past experiences in fighting resurfaced.

'Don't give it a chance to get up!'

Aurora thought to herself.

'This guy is incredibly tough, and his speed seems far superior to that of an average person. My newly acquired strength might not even be enough to hit him, so the best way to defeat him is to kill him with a single blow!'

Bang!

The ruins before them exploded, bricks and stones flying everywhere. Goods from some unknown shop were smashed by the bricks and stones thrown by the monster, which was struggling to get up from the rubble.

Aurora's eyes, which seemed to be burning with flames, suddenly narrowed. She stepped back with her left foot, toes touching the ground, bent her right knee, and clenched her right fist.

The monster's shadow was reflected in her red eyes. She was encased in metal gauntlets, her fists larger than an adult's head, and red magical halos shot out from near her wrists.

A magical halo appeared on her right hand, resembling a magical Energy-Binding Rings that Xiao Qiu used to launch artillery fire. As the Energy-Binding Rings rotated, a booming sound suddenly rang out!

Boom--!

Magic flowed into her fist, which became like a booster for Aurora, propelling her figure and drawing a straight red line through the alley. In the blink of an eye, she covered a distance of more than ten meters and arrived in front of the monster!

"Take this punch!!!"

Without a name, and without time to name her moves, Aurora simply channeled all her magic power into her right fist.

Boom!!!!

The fist struck the monster squarely in the chest and abdomen. Amplified by the magic Energy-Binding Rings, the incredibly violent magical power poured onto the armored monster.

Amidst the rousing rap background music, Aurora's fist shattered the monster into pieces.

Pink liquid, representing blood, instantly covered the smashed walls of the shop, turning the entire store into a work of art, radiating outwards like a ray of pink blood.

Despite the powerful impact, Aurora remained unstained except for some pink blood from the gangsters that had previously stained her body.

Only after the 'blood' rained down did Aurora belatedly withdraw her fist, staring dumbfounded at the shelled monster that had been reduced to fragments on the ground.

"This... this... it shattered with just one punch?!"

Even Aurora herself was stunned by the power she had unleashed.

The armored monster, whose shell couldn't even be penetrated by a pistol, was shattered by a single punch from its transformed self?!

Just how powerful was the force I just unleashed?!

Aurora stared at her fist in shock; she still felt a little unreal.

But Aurora didn't have time to be shocked for long. The dense sounds of cars, footsteps, and conversations coming from outside the alley made Aurora realize that the Crocodile Brotherhood had arrived.

The leader of the group that came to collect the debt must be a relatively important figure in the Crocodile Brotherhood. Given that this is Crocodile Brotherhood territory, it's not surprising that they would come looking for him immediately.

However, Aurora could not stay here. Having been born and raised here, she Crocodile Brotherhood who ruled this area.

So when Aurora heard that the Crocodile Brotherhood had arrived, she didn't hesitate and immediately turned and ran away.

Her enhanced physical abilities after transforming into Magical Girls allowed her to leap several meters into the air with a light jump. After using the walls as cover, Aurora leaped away between the tall buildings.
