Chapter 573

The Sloth Demon spoke at length.

Song Niandong could no longer hear clearly. Just as the Sloth Demon had said, even if he had stabbed himself in the thigh with a dagger, the pain would not have been enough to keep Song Niandong conscious for long.

If this continues, she'll probably lose consciousness very soon.

But... right at that moment--!

"Get away from her!!!"

An extremely angry voice flew from afar, along with chains shooting out from all directions.

Upon seeing the chains and hearing the familiar voice, Song Niandong instantly snapped to attention. She abruptly turned her head to look behind her, towards the direction from which the voice came.

There, a petite figure was speeding towards them on chains!

Volume 6 <Magic Autumn> Season 4: Chapter 613 Become a Part of My Power

Although the silver-haired figure was petite, she didn't look like the person Song Niandong remembered.

Perhaps it was an intuition, or perhaps Song Niandong was no longer in her right mind, but she almost instinctively felt that the other person was Fang Ming.

That was the brother she longed for day and night.

Before Song Niandong could react, the figure was already in front of her and pulled her into his arms.

"... Brother... am I... dreaming?"

Song Niandong murmured to herself, speaking to the silver-haired figure.

And the appearance of that silver-haired figure was finally revealed to everyone.

Without a doubt, it's the young Xiao Bai!

(Xiao Bai!!!!)

(Though late, it arrives! Xiao Bai always makes a crucial appearance at the right moment!)

(No, don't get excited! Can this Xiao Bai even beat that Pillar-Tier Demon?!)

(Ah...)

(It seems... not quite right?)

(Oh no, Xiao Bai and Dongdong are going to be in trouble now.)

(Run! Stop this melodramatic reunion! Run!)

(... There's no escaping it, is there?)

(No way!)

At first, the viewers in the live chat were cheering for Xiao Bai's timely arrival, but they quickly realized that at this moment, Xiao Bai, whose true form was 'Tsukinomiya Yuki', was not even close to being a pillar, let alone Upper Rank.

At this point, Xiao Bai will not only be unable to help Dongdong, but may very well become a prisoner of the Sloth Demon along with Dongdong.

Upon realizing this, the audience became even more worried.

They worry that Xiao Bai and Dongdong on the Sky Screen are now a "buy one get one free" deal.

"But... it should be fine, right?"

Upon seeing this part of the plot, Fang Ming began to ponder it seriously.

He felt that even if she lost her memories of this life, Tsukinomiya Yuki might not be so reckless as to rush over without thinking.

Even if he came without thinking about anything, Fang Ming believed that he should be able to find a way to deal with the Sloth Demon.

Rather, it's precisely because there was a solution that Tsukinomiya Yuki came over.

"So, what method will you use to get rid of the Sloth Demon?"

Fang Ming murmured to himself.

The reason I was able to defeat the Sloth Demon was because I was capable of unleashing Pillar Rank strength.

The combination of the Demon Form and the Calamity Power allowed Fang Ming's personal strength to remain stable at the upper-middle level of the Pillar Rank. Coupled with his calculated attack and his all-out attack from the start, it was only natural that the Fang Ming Sloth Demon would be eliminated.

But what will Tsukinomiya Yuki do?

Neither her Magical Girl Form nor her Demon Form meets the standard of Pillar Rank.

If I had to put it in perspective, the Demon Form combined with the Demons power absorbed by Tsukinomiya Yuki would barely reach the Pillar Rank.

But compared to Pillar Rank Sloth Demon, it's definitely not up to par.

Fang Ming was very curious about how Tsukinomiya Yuki would resolve the situation.

["Ah..."

He instinctively hugged Song Niandong, Young Xiao Bai suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head; several images flashed through his mind.

This made her realize that the girl in her arms was someone she was very close to, and perhaps one of the Magical Girls she had once wanted to protect.

"... No wonder I was so angry when I saw you were injured."

The Young Xiao Bai murmured to herself.

But Song Niandong, who had already fallen into a deep sleep, could not hear her words.

Once she was sure Song Niandong was unconscious, Young Xiao Bai set up a magic circle with chains in front of and behind her to block the Sloth Demon's attack.

Although she knew very well that this amount of magic was as fragile as paper in front of Pillar-Tier Demon, the sight of the dense chains around her at least gave Young Xiao Bai a sense of security.

"So what should I do now?"

The silver-haired girl murmured to herself.

Upon seeing Song Niandong injured, Xiao Bai rushed over almost without thinking.

In that moment, she was overcome with passion, her body acted in place of her will, and her instincts led her to rush out and protect Song Niandong.

But after coming into contact with Song Niandong, the initial rush of passion gradually cooled down, and Xiao Bai realized that he was probably in a rather dangerous situation.

She was no match for Pillar Rank Demons.

Let alone Pillar Rank being, she estimated that even Upper Demon would require her to activate her Demon Form to defeat them, but she herself...

She's Magical Girls.

"... That's strange."

While Xiao Bai was pondering, the Pillar Rank Sloth Demon suddenly spoke, "You... why... are you immune to my magic?"

"Huh?"

Xiao Bai's pupils contracted, and she quickly looked down at Song Niandong, realizing the same thing.

Why... do I seem to be fine?

This older sister... no, this younger sister seems completely unable to withstand the Sloth Demon's magic, and needs to resort to self-harm to briefly regain her senses.

But why do I seem to be perfectly fine?

Could it be that I am stronger than the Magical Girls in my arms?

As soon as Xiao Bai thought that, he immediately rejected his idea.

No, the purple-haired girl is very powerful, possibly even stronger than Aurora, whom Xiao Bai knows. This can be seen from the fact that she can create countless clones and Toy Bear taller than skyscrapers.

Therefore, it cannot be due to a lack of ability.

So what exactly is it?

--How stupid.

Suddenly, a voice rang in Xiao Bai's mind.

"Who!?"

Xiao Bai's eyes widened in surprise. She subconsciously looked around, but apart from herself and the Pillar-Tier Demon, all that was left was the purple-haired girl sleeping in her arms.

Clearly, the purple-haired girl, who was already asleep, couldn't have made that sound.

Moreover, Xiao Bai felt that the voice seemed to come from the depths of her heart.

--You should know your abilities.

Really!!

When that voice appeared again, Xiao Bai was absolutely certain that the source of the voice was deep within his own mind!

That was... my own voice!

"... You... who are you...?"

--Close your eyes, think carefully, and reflect on your true abilities...

The voice didn't answer Xiao Bai's question; it simply instructed Xiao Bai on what to do in a calm tone.

With a flicker in her eyes, Xiao Bai ultimately chose to believe.

So she closed her eyes.

(That voice is...!)

(Big Xiao Bai!)

(What the hell, Big Xiao Bai www)

(Ah, to distinguish it from the current Xiao Bai, the adult Xiao Bai is called Big Xiao Bai... or something like that?)

(That's so perfunctory www)

(But without a doubt, that's the voice of an adult Xiao Bai, right?)

(What happened? Xiao Bai didn't actually lose her memory, it's just that her memory is hidden very deeply, deep within her sea of consciousness?)

(I'm not sure, but I'm more interested in what Big Xiao Bai said.)

(What does "real ability" mean?)

(... Could it be some kind of Demons power?)

(Speaking of which, Xiao Bai herself isn't exactly a pure Magical Girls...)

(After all, the original body is male)

"..."

While the comments were buzzing, a unique scene suddenly appeared next to Fang Ming was in his Demon Form.

Time seemed to reverse in the world. The Sloth Demon reappeared before him, and he himself, in the form of Xiao Bai, was holding Song Niandong, standing in the barrier protected by chains.

This is the story unfolding in the Sky Screen!

At this very moment, everything Fang Ming was experiencing began to synchronize with the plot unfolding in the Sky Screen!

But unlike before, at this moment, Fang Ming saw something that was not shown on the Sky Screen!

Skill panel!!

"... I see..."

The sound was coming from her own body; it was the sound of Tsukinomiya Yuki.

Tsukinomiya Yuki through the light screen, also let out a sound of sudden realization.

"I see, I understand now..."

A red glint flashed in Xiao Bai's eyes, and his body began to change.

The small figure gradually grew taller, and the Magical Armament she wore also became more suitable for her as she grew.

Her skin was even whiter, but black and red demonic patterns appeared on her fair skin.

The magical runes wrapped around Xiao Bai's exposed skin and covered the protective chains that bound them!

The scythe changed from blackish-silver to silver-red, a blood-like color that sent a shiver down one's spine.

Negative magic permeated the girl's body as she grew up. Calamity Demon, Information Demon, Puppet Demon... all the Demons powers the girl had ever seen mingled together at this moment, becoming part of her power.

Middle Rank, Upper Rank... pillar!

The girl's total magical power rapidly increased to the Pillar Rank at an unreasonable speed!

This is the Demon Form!

Demon Form appearing in the guise of Xiao Bai character!
