Chapter 618
Gently patting his cheeks, recalling Tsukinomiya Yuki's feelings in that 'historical process', Fang Ming smiled:
"Coming right now!"
The matter between Xiao Chun and Aurora has come to a temporary end.
Let's finish watching episode nine of Sky Screen first.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the battle between the War Demon and the Aging Demon should reach a conclusion today.
Episode 9 is another episode where the opening theme disappears.
In the familiar Mindscape World, a boy named Tsukinomiya Yuki stands in a pure white space, looking up and around.
A look of confusion crossed the boy's eyes. He was still on the path to recovering his memories. In this world of memories, time was extended indefinitely, giving him ample time to reclaim them.
Fragments of memory suddenly lit up ahead, and in the pure white space, the Memory Crystal radiating silver light merged together before the boy.
It was as if they were guiding the boy on his path.
Almost subconsciously, Tsukinomiya Yuki followed the path guided by the Memory Crystal, moving forward step by step.
His steps were slow at first, but gradually quickened, and in the end he was almost running in the direction indicated.
Then--
He stopped in his tracks.
"Oh, you're here."
Beside the largest Memory Crystal, bound by chains, stood a silver-haired girl.
The silver-haired girl was dressed similarly to the grown-up Xiao Bai, but her clothes were tattered. The hem of her skirt did not even reach her knees, and her upper body clothing was only half intact, with the skin around her navel exposed.
Her skin was red with black veins that seemed to flow across her body as if they were alive.
The most striking feature was the girl's expression.
He was manic, mad, and even somewhat evil, as if he had completely become Demons.
Without a doubt, the Xiao Bai here today is the same Little White who absorbed the Calamity Power and Demonized Xiao Bai.
That demonic consciousness that was supposedly 'destroyed' long ago by the former Xiao Bai... or rather, what everyone thought was 'destroyed'.
It appears that the consciousness of the Demonized Xiao Bai is still present, and it is hidden deep within Tsukinomiya Yuki's memory, sealing it away.
Upon seeing Xiao Bai before him, who had regained much of his memories and was almost a replica of Fang Ming himself, he recognized Xiaobai's identity based on the fragmented memories in his mind.
He said slowly:
"So, you're still alive."
"Hehehe, thanks to you, I survived the resurrection along with you." The Demonized Xiao Bai brandished its scythe, planting it in the empty ground, and asked Fang Ming:
"So, are you still going to kill me now?"
"There's no need for that." Fang Ming's gaze shifted to the Memory Crystal behind the Demonized White. He said in a low voice, "Under the cleansing Power of Hope, you have lost your demonic nature. Otherwise, you wouldn't have reminded me to save Xiao Qiu and the others."
"So step aside, let me retrieve my last memories and power. I need to help Xiao Qiu. They... need my help now, they need our help!"
Demonized White... can no longer be called Demonized White. At least after Resurrection, Demonized White's deep-seated hatred for Magical Girls has completely disappeared.
In addition, she still retains Fang Ming's memories, so she also has some feelings for Xiao Qiu and the others. Therefore, the current Demonized White is relatively normal.
Aside from her current plan to seal Fang Ming's memories and prevent Fang Ming from regaining them and his powers, she harbors almost no ill will towards the Magical Girls.
But this is not a good thing for Fang Ming.
Because the other party's malice... was now entirely focused on Fang Ming.
Clang!
The scythe handle slammed heavily against the ground, and the smile on the Demonized White face became even more ferocious.
She leaned down slightly, gripping the sickle with both hands; the chains, like her tail, split into several strands that danced behind her.
"You want memories and power?"
The Demonized White's lips curled into a wide smile, "You know the rules, so come and take it yourself!!"
Bang!!!
As soon as he finished speaking, the silver figure appeared in front of the silver-haired boy in an instant.
Without much hesitation, the boy instinctively unleashed his full power!
Her body changed, and the young boy transformed into a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl in the blink of an eye.
Judging from the black and red markings on her body, she is indeed Xiao Bai's Demonized Form!
Aside from having normal skin, Xiao Bai looks almost exactly like the Demonized White at this moment!
Clang--!
As Xiao Bai and Magic White's weapons clashed, sparks flew at the point of impact.
Upon seeing the silver-haired girl's current appearance, Magic White couldn't help but mock her:
"Ha! Look at yourself now--"
She pressed down hard on the silver-haired girl, her voice sharp. "--You're... even more like Demons than me!!!"
Ding ding ding--!
As they spoke, Magic White launched a relentless attack on the silver-haired girl, never stopping for a moment!
Volume 6 <Magic Autumn> Season 4: Chapter 661 Kids, go to school obediently!
[Scythes swung, silver blades clashed and sparks exploded in the air. Two girls, almost identical except for their skin color, began their battle before this Memory Crystal.]
Magic White's attack was aimed directly at Xiao Bai's vital points. Every move and every stance was executed without reservation, as if he intended to kill Xiao Bai right there and now.
Magic White doesn't like Xiao Bai, and Xiao Bai can tell that too.
But at this moment, when Magic White attacked Xiao Bai didn't quite understand:
"What are you doing?!"
"Can't you see?!" the demonized girl laughed wildly. "Of course, it's to replace you and become the real 'Fang Ming'!"
"Why now of all times? When Xiao Qiu and the others are waiting for us to help them!?"
Xiao Bai asked in a trembling voice.
The demonized girl retorted, "That's exactly the time! Didn't you say you wanted to protect Xiao Qiu and the others? Didn't you say... you were willing to give your life for Xiao Qiu and the others!"
"So now... if I said I would take your place and wholeheartedly help Xiao Qiu and the others eliminate the Demons, what would you choose?"
Ding ding ding ding--
The clanging of sickles continued, but Xiao Bai's expression had begun to waver.
Upon seeing this, the Demonized White laughed even louder:
"Would you rather fight me here and let Xiao Qiu and the others continue to suffer from the danger posed by the Demons, or... hand everything over to me and let me help you... protect them?"
"You... deliberately restored some of my memories, deliberately led me here, just... for this!?"
Xiao Bai finally understood why Demonized White had advised her when she was confused earlier.
Why did I suddenly regain most of my memories?
So that's the reason!
Demonized White's only goal from beginning to end was to replace her, replace Fang Ming, and truly live in this world!
The Demonized White made no attempt to conceal her intentions, laughing loudly as she said:
"If I hadn't guided you this way, how could you have gotten here? Come on, Fang Ming, make your choice! Let me see... whether you're a hypocrite or a 'saint' who can carry out his will to the end!"
"..."
The maniacal laughter of the Demonized White was interspersed with the sounds of metal clashing.
She didn't use her full strength, because even if she did, she wouldn't be able to defeat Xiao Bai in a short time, but she didn't need to use her full strength either.
All she needed to do was provoke the silver-haired girl with words.
In the midst of the fierce exchange, the silver-haired girl's breathing became rapid.
Her movements began to distort, and she seemed to see phantoms of Xiao Qiu and the others dying on the battlefield before her eyes.
Countless memories flashed before her eyes. Having regained Fang Ming's memories, she could no longer treat Xiao Qiu and the others as strangers.
With a light bite, the girl suddenly struck the Demonized White away, creating distance between them, and stood in front of the Demonized White.
"What's wrong? Not planning to continue playing?"
The Demonized White figure grinned and asked.
Perhaps because they are essentially one person, and their hearts are connected, they are probably able to understand each other's feelings.
Therefore, the Demonized White roughly guessed what the silver-haired girl was going to do.
Without hesitation or second thought, after addressing the issue of the Demonized White, the silver-haired girl threw away her weapon.
Clang--
The scythe landed on the empty ground, making a crisp sound within the space of consciousness.
Then the scythe transformed into magical specks of light and vanished, just like the silver-haired girl's fighting spirit at that moment.
The girl raised her head, gazing at the Demonized White before her that was almost identical to herself, and asked softly:
"You really will protect Xiao Qiu and the others, right?"
"Ha, don't worry, I am you after all. Without the interference of the Demons's negative will, I will definitely protect them according to your wishes."
"After all, they are my sisters too."
Demonized White replied in this way.
The silver-haired girl took a deep breath. "Then I'm fine with it, let's get started."
"!?"
Although he had already guessed the silver-haired girl's answer, he was still quite surprised when the Demonized White -haired girl actually closed her eyes and offered her neck for execution in front of him.
She raised an eyebrow and asked:
"So decisive? Aren't you worried I might change my mind?"
"Here, our hearts are connected, so I know you weren't lying just now. And now... Xiao Qiu and Xiaoxia need our help. Every second we hesitate here could put them in danger."
"I don't want to see them in danger. Now that I've become Magical Girls, and now that they call me 'brother,' I should do what I'm supposed to do!"
"Protect them, take care of them! Even if it costs me my life!"
"... Ha, so you really want to be this 'saint'." Demonized White said sarcastically.
Xiao Bai laughed, she withdrew from her Demonized Form, and returned to her childlike Magical Girls form.
She stood in front of the Demonized White and said with a smile:
"I'm not some saint, I'm just... an older brother who wants to protect his sister."
"That sounds nice, huh? Since that's the case..." The Demonized White grinned again, stepping forward with her right foot, her entire body shooting towards Xiao Bai, who had transformed back into Magical Girls, like a silver ray.
"--I won't be polite then!!"
The scythe swung, a flash of silver light appearing in the air, its blade aimed directly at Xiao Bai's neck!
(No!!!!!!)
(Stop it!!!!)
(Wait a minute! This doesn't make sense! Didn't Xiao Bai already activate his Shining Form at the end of the last episode?! What's going on?!)
(They activated Shining Form... but it wasn't mentioned who activated Shining Form...)
(So the one who activated the Shining Form last was Magic White? No way!! My Xiao Bai!!)
(Cousin!!!)
(Aaaaaah, help! Please save Xiao Bai!)
(... Wait... something seems a bit off?)
