The Second Special Episode Begins!

The fact that Mutant Magic was obtained from a modified creature means that at least one modified Magical Creatures was once studied by them.

And when Kelly thought of the lion Lien that appeared in the Sky Screen, Kelly couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her.

She had noticed Lien when she fought the blue-haired Magical Girls before, but at that time Kelly didn't think much of it and didn't know what Lien had been through.

But now, looking back, Kelly guessed the source of the monsters' Mutant Magic from Lien's attitude towards them and the experimental scenes that appeared in the Sky Screen.

Lien... must have gone through a lot of Pain.

First, she was captured and modified by Demons. After finally escaping, she was captured again by humans in this world to extract her magic power.

At this moment, she was still only thinking about taking revenge on those humans, not on taking revenge on the world... Kelly thought Lien was too kind.

Is Mutant Magic contagious?

Fang Ming continued to ask questions.

This is what he cares about most.

Kelly remained silent for a moment before saying, "Mutant Magic itself is not contagious, but the flesh contaminated by Mutant Magic does possess a certain degree of infectivity."

As she spoke, she wrote and drew on the blackboard in the virtual world, while explaining to Fang Ming and the other two Magical Creatures:

"Let's assume this is Mutant Magic."

Kelly transformed her magic into a ball of light, then inserted it into the body of an unknown creature. "This is a creature modified by Mutant Magic."

After the ball of light entered the body of the unknown creature, it exploded completely, merging with the creature and transforming it into Demons.

Then Kelly drew a little figure, who was injured by the Demons and looked terrified.

Kelly continued, "When modified creatures harm others, they won't infect those they harm with Mutant Magic, but—"

As she spoke, she cut off a portion of the modified Demons's body and stuffed it into the body of another small figure:

"... If a modified creature were to inject its magically imbued flesh and blood into the body of another creature..."

The little figure stuffed with the flesh and blood of Demons immediately began to transform into the shape of Demons, and in the blink of an eye, it became a new Demons.

Fang Ming's gaze turned serious. "So, the mutant monsters that were infecting each other in the Crocodile Brotherhood today were essentially stuffing their own flesh and blood into the bodies of their victims?"

"It's even more serious," Kelly said in a deep voice. "The species infused with Mutant Magic are probably not ordinary creatures; they are likely something much smaller and more inconspicuous."

For example, some insects and parasites that can burrow into the human body.

For example...

Bacteria.

Episode 2 of Chapter 200 Side Story has premiered!

The news I got from Kelly was a mix of good and bad.

The bad news is that the people behind the scenes have developed a way to hide Mutant Magic within easily reproducing insects and even bacteria.

The good news is that the Mutant Magic implanted in bacteria or insects will gradually disappear as they reproduce.

Initially, it was probably only the first and second generation of insects or bacteria that possessed the ability to transform humans into Demons.

Once the number of iterations exceeds a certain limit, even if it is possible to penetrate a human body, it is impossible to change the person's appearance.

Furthermore, Kelly also mentioned that even the smallest mosquitoes containing Mutant Magic are still visible to the naked eye.

Magical Girls and ordinary people like Fang Ming with keen senses can both detect the presence of these insects before they get close.

This is probably why no insect infestation was found in Tucker's office at the time.

Even so, people couldn't relax.

These Mutant Magic created by unknown forces are easy to hide and spread. If they were to release these Mutant Magic on a large scale in a certain place, the Magical Girls would be in for a lot of trouble.

"Those guys are awful! What good does it do them to fill the world with Demons?!"

Nino angrily expressed his dissatisfaction.

Kelly, however, seemed unsurprised and said:

"In some worlds, the existence of Magical Girls is also exposed to the public eye, and the choices made by humans in those worlds are similar to those made by humans in this world."

"They always wanted to control this extraordinary power that didn't belong to them, and they were even willing to make deals with Demons for it."

"But it is often precisely because of them that crises are brought to the world..."

Kelly looked at Fang Ming as she spoke and said softly:

"And because of the Sky Screen, this world is probably more likely to attract those who covet magical power. In their eyes, they would probably rather this world be invaded by Demons than not possess that extraordinary power that surpasses that of ordinary people."

Living in this world, aside from the most basic physiological Desire, human beings need nothing more than two things.

Power and profit.

Magical power, which surpasses that of ordinary people and is unaffected even by firearms, is even more capable of placing one above everyone else.

To obtain such power, many people would probably be willing to give up everything.

Even if Fang Ming hadn't possessed a special ability, he probably wouldn't have been able to remain calm when he learned that extraordinary powers existed in this world.

Given this context, it's understandable that some radical individuals might emerge.

"There's also good news: at least they know how to exercise restraint."

Fang Ming sighed.

The group hiding in the shadows, although possessing the technology to infect others, did not actually use it on a large scale.

This means they still have their own concerns, and at least they haven't gone so far as to try to change the whole world.

"Yes, at least they still know how to restrain themselves."

Kelly spoke softly, but as she shifted her gaze, it landed on the Sky Screen.

Looking out the window, Fang Ming turned his gaze to the Sky Screen.

Those people still know how to restrain themselves now, but it's hard to say whether they will be able to continue to do so after the spin-off ends.

As the spin-off storyline progresses, they will likely become increasingly radical.

Fang Ming must find them before they become even more radical.

Hopefully, the upcoming episodes will provide more clues about them.

The brief meeting adjourned, and it was time for the second episode to air.

Fang Ming took Youyou and Nino back and instructed them... especially Nino, not to talk about it to anyone.

He worried that once the Magical Girls found out about this, they would take it upon themselves to search for these people.

Fang Ming wasn't worried about the Magical Girls' strength, but sometimes, in battles between people, it's not entirely about one's own power.

At least for now, before figuring out who his opponent is, Fang Ming plans to keep it a secret for a while longer.

Besides, the side story was originally supposed to be Aurora and Luna's main storyline...

"Episode 2 has started!"

On the balcony, Kelly 'Split Kelly' on Fang Ming's phone reminded Fang Ming.

Because Fang Ming had been thinking about something, he didn't meet with the other Magical Girls in the villa. Now, Xiao Qiu and the others were looking at the Sky Screen from the balcony outside the living room, while Fang Ming was standing on the edge of the second-floor balcony.

You can see Xiao Qiu and the others below at a glance from here.

As for Aurora, because there were too many 'strangers' in the house, she had already run back to her room and stayed there. Now, Kelly's true form was keeping her company.

Leaning on the railing of the second-floor balcony, Fang Ming turned his head to look at the Sky Screen.

At the same time, the Sky Screen lit up again.

The second episode of the spin-off is airing at this moment.

In the pitch-black light of the dimly lit morgue, beside a body covered with a white sheet, Tucker, the Crocodile Brotherhood, stands beside his brother's corpse, his hands trembling.

His expression was sorrowful, and there was a hint of disbelief in his eyes. His hand rested on the white cloth at the edge of his brother's body, and he remained motionless for a long time.

Finally, he glanced at it secretly.

With just one glance, Tucker immediately closed the white sheet, half-kneeling on the ground. His middle-aged face was contorted with rage, tears and snot streaming down his face, making him look utterly pathetic.

But no one dared to laugh at Tucker. The Crocodile Brotherhood henchmen immediately rushed forward to help their leader, saying:

"Boss! My condolences!"

"Who... who did this?!"

Tucker's voice trembled with a sob, but it was filled with rage. He gripped his underling's collar, his eyes red and bloodshot, and asked through gritted teeth:

"Who! Who killed my brother?! Was it those bastards from the Skoll Gang?! Or... or one of the other two gangs?!"

"No... I don't know, boss! We really don't know, when did they already... already become like this..."

The younger brother was frightened by his boss's appearance and answered in a trembling voice.

Tucker kicked one of his underlings to the ground, grabbed another underling's pistol, and pointed it at the man he had just kicked.

He wanted to fire, but after gesturing for a moment, he put the gun away and angrily said:

"Investigate! Find out everything that happened that day, down to the last detail! Otherwise, you'll all be executed along with my brother!!"

Tucker roared angrily and kicked the metal table next to him.

With a loud crash, the metal table toppled to the ground.

The opening theme music begins at this moment.

(Who is this? What did I do here? Is this still Magical Girls anime?)

(No, this is a gangster anime www)

(I know this guy, Crocodile Brotherhood. It seems the guy who came to Aurora to collect a debt earlier is his brother.)

(Isn't this just impotent rage? If you're so powerful, why don't you fight a monster?)

(He didn't know that the one who killed his brother was a monster; rather, a normal person wouldn't even imagine that monsters exist.)

Tucker's reaction is perfectly normal from a common-sense perspective.

As a gang leader, it's understandable that he would be extremely saddened by the mysterious death of his only brother and want to find out the truth.

Unfortunately, in this spin-off, he stands on the opposite side of Aurora, who represents justice.

This already sealed his fate.

Fortunately, in reality, thanks to Aurora's forgiveness, the Crocodile Brotherhood temporarily spared from being attacked by the whole group, but this was only temporary.

If Tucker in Sky Screen goes too far, the Crocodile Brotherhood be finished.

I'm sure Tucker is praying in front of the Magical Girls's portrait right now, praying that his reflection in the Sky Screen won't do anything foolish.

[After the opening sequence, the scene abruptly shifts to a chaotic slum filled with clutter, where a thrilling chase unfolds before everyone's eyes.]

Aurora, who had dyed her red hair blonde, was running ahead, using her small size and agile movements to weave through the streets and alleys.

After becoming Magical Girls, Aurora's physical abilities improved further; not only did her physical strength increase, but her movements also became more agile.

Parkour moves that were impossible before are now a breeze for them.

So after running just two blocks, Aurora left the group of people behind her.

"Seriously! Those Crocodile Brotherhood guys are so annoying! I've already told you I didn't kill those guys!"

Having finally shaken off these annoying guys, Aurora kicked a soda can away, grumbling angrily.

While complaining, he scratched his blond hair and said irritably:

"And even though I dyed my hair blonde, how did they still manage to find me?!"

"No matter how you try to change it, your height won't change..."

Kelly's voice came through the phone.

Hearing her partner's merciless sarcastic remarks, Aurora was speechless.

"Since you're some kind of Magical Creatures and can turn me into Magical Girls, can't you also use magic to make me grow taller?!"

"That kind of height increase is only temporary, and even if I knew such magic, you would have to learn it yourself if you wanted to use it for a long time. And right now... you're not officially Magical Girls."

Kelly explained.

Aurora's voiceover also plays off-screen.
