Chapter 518
But soon, the Information Demon's face showed an expression of 'disgust':
"Honestly, I should really like this kind of scene, but right now... I feel absolutely disgusted!"
Ugh!!!
The sky cracked open again, and a train traveled along the virtual tracks, crashing into the path that Aurora and Luna were destined to take below.
Luna was the first to stop. She stood next to Aurora, placing both hands on the hand cannon simultaneously, and dazzling magic gathered inside.
Boom!!
The Magic Cannon only charged for a second before erupting, its radiating beam of light instantly engulfing the oncoming train.
However, despite the constant loss of excess data caused by the magic cannon beams, the train continued to move towards the Magical Girls even under the attack of the Magic Cannon beams.
"I'll do it!!"
Just as the train was about to crash into them, Aurora, who had no time to dodge, stepped in front of Luna, raising her right fist high and channeling her intense Passion into it!
"Give me--"
His Passion surged, and he unleashed magic three times in a row, his Passion: Eruption in a punch that struck the engine of the train squarely!
Boom!!
Ugh--!
The train on the tracks made a sound like a steam locomotive, or like the cry of an animal being struck.
The front of the train was stopped by Aurora's punch, and the carriages behind it twisted and turned due to inertia, eventually flipping upside down in the air!
"--Stop!!!!"
Aurora roared, her magic erupting even more fiercely. A dazzling red light radiated outwards from the front of the train, and then the entire train exploded!
After the train exploded, the Information Demon hidden behind it finally appeared in front of the two Magical Girls.
Upon seeing this, Aurora immediately called out to Luna, "Luna!!"
"Um!"
Luna nodded emphatically, and the hand cannon instantly transformed into a more powerful and targeted anti-material sniper rifle!
Stand still, aim, and pull the trigger!
Luna completed all of these actions in less than a tenth of a second!
Bang!!!
Azure magic pierced the sky, and the bullets, like god-slaying spears from mythology, flew straight toward the Information Demon's vital center.
But--
Splash--!
The Information Demon's body shattered like a mirror.
This is a fake virtual entity! Or rather, she replaced her real self with a virtual entity before launching the attack!
In this world of information, the Information Demon can do this!
"Ugh! Slippery as an eel, so annoying!"
Seeing that her attack had missed, Aurora became quite frustrated.
The Information Demon, however, seemed to be deliberately trying to provoke Aurora, and said with a grin:
"What a pity~ Just a little bit short. Keep trying, Magical Girls ~"
"This can't go on..."
Seeing the Information Demon relocate again, Luna turned to Aurora and said, "Magic... will be consumed..."
"I know! But...!"
Aurora was also quite anxious.
Luna and Aurora's magic was being depleted, but the Information Demon's magic seemed to be inexhaustible.
If this continues, once their magic power is exhausted, they will become fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of the Information Demon.
Aurora knew this, but despite knowing it, Aurora didn't have any good solutions.
Unless...
Who can bind the Information Demon here?
Just as Aurora was thinking this, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a silver dot of light behind the Information Demon out of the corner of her eye.
Those silver specks of light were so familiar, and so reassuring.
Aurora was immediately stunned. Her eyes widened, and tears welled up in her eyes. This appearance of crying tears of joy puzzled both Luna and the Information Demon.
The Information Demon asked, even more puzzled:
"What's wrong? Why are you crying? Did I hit you too hard just now...?"
Splash--!
Before the Information Demon could finish speaking, several silver chains suddenly appeared from her blind spot, precisely locking onto her wrists and feet!
"?!"
"Idiot, it's because she saw me."
A familiar voice rang out behind the Information Demon immediately thought of the silver-haired Magical Girls who had also left her somewhat helpless!
It's her?!
The Information Demon was slightly stunned, but looking at the chains binding her, Information Demon wasn't particularly flustered. She said to the silver-haired girl behind her:
"You've come? So what? Do you think these chains can hold me captive? Don't forget, this is a virtual world!"
"I haven't forgotten," the silver-haired girl said from behind the Information Demon.
After her, Kelly's voice suddenly rang out from further away:
"It's precisely because this is a virtual world that we must use the same methods against you! Now... do you think you can still escape!"
Following the sound, Kelly appeared in the far distance, raising her right hand, palm outstretched, pointing towards the Information Demon.
Her left hand was gripping her right, as if she were trying to control and channel powerful energy into it.
Upon seeing this, the Information Demon immediately looked down at the chains binding him.
On those silver chains, the data magic that Kelly had imbued was flowing!
These chains became the chains that could temporarily bind the Information Demon here!
"Aurora!!!!"
The silver-haired girl stopped wasting words with the Information Demon and shouted loudly in Aurora's direction.
Without further hesitation, the red-haired Magical Girls, without even wiping away her tears, instantly channeled her magic power into her feet the moment she heard the silver-haired girl's cry. In that instant, she shot towards the Information Demon like a red lightning bolt!
Oh no! There's no way to dodge it!
The Information Demon finally panicked. The magical data within her body was struggling against the silver chains binding her, and she was gradually unlocking the data attached to those chains.
However... she was ultimately a step too late.
"Disappear!!"
Boom!!!
Aurora had already flashed in front of the Information Demon, and her fist slammed into the Information Demon's chest and abdomen, right where the Nightmare Seed was hidden!
Click--
The sound of the Nightmare Seed shattering was so clear.
In that instant Information Demon clearly realized one thing.
Her life ends here.

Volume 5 Side Story <Magic Mystery> Season 2: Chapter 557 Aisaki Ai's Memories
(Xiao Bai is here! This game is in the bag!)
(As expected, Xiao Bai is still the same Xiao Bai, only making a move at crucial moments.)
(Speaking of which, fighting Demons really depends on timing. If you get the timing right, you can kill it in one hit; if you don't, the battle will drag on indefinitely...)
(The Information Demon must be dead, right?)
(I'm doomed, meow)
"..."
Aisaki Ai's gaze swept across the barrage of comments on the Sky Screen.
All the comments were cheering for the death of the Information Demon, with few people thinking that the Information Demon was also a victim, but no one seemed to think that there was anything wrong with the Information Demon's death either.
Ultimately, once one becomes Demons, human rights cease to be relevant to the Information Demon.
Aisaki Ai was well aware that everything she had done within the Sky Screen was her own fault.
So... what were you thinking about in these final moments?
Cracks appeared on the Information Demon's mask, and as if infected with a virus, various facial expressions on her mask changed rapidly.
The Information Demon herself couldn't see this, but she might be able to sense it, so she lowered her head and looked at her chest.
Aurora's fist struck her vital core, and the Information Demon could sense that her life was gradually slipping away.
Her life may have come to an end here.
For some reason, his vision blurred, and in the mind of the Information Demon, memories of the past flashed by, memories from a first-person perspective.
I remember cheering with joy as a child watching Magical Girls anime.
I started getting into voice acting as a teenager, and began to breathe life into the characters I liked.
As she grew a little older, she finally received a job related to Magical Girls and began working hard for it.
Then...
A serious illness destroyed everything she had.
"... I'm sorry, Ms. Aozaki, even with all the treatment we can provide, your voice... I'm afraid it will never be the same again."
The doctor stood before Aisaki Ai and announced her death.
Yes, Aisaki Ai felt that she had died from that moment on.
(Ah?!)
(Huh?!)
(Is it Nicole!?)
(Holy crap! I remember now! The Information Demon's voice is just like Nicole's! So she's Nicole's voice actress?!)
(How... did she turn into Demons?)
(Didn't the flashback mention that she could no longer be a voice actress?)
(Quiet down, keep reading)
In the Eastern Ocean District, the shelf life of voice actors is actually not very long. Apart from a few truly top-tier figures in the industry, many voice actors don't even have much fame.
Aisaki Ai was lucky; at least she had her signature roles, and if she had continued on that path, becoming a top voice actress in the industry shouldn't have been a problem.
But... her serious illness took away her voice. Although her new voice has a unique style, it is far from what it used to be.
Moreover, Aisaki Ai is unable to engage in speaking and training for extended periods, a fact that alone could ruin her future in the highly competitive industry.
Fortunately, the agency that nurtured her were all good people; they were willing to wait for Aisaki Ai and, in the meantime, gave her a new job.
Ruby, a virtual YouTuber.
That's her new identity.
