(Miluno)

Just before the black mist was about to hit the staff-wielding magical girl, I sped up and carried her away. But the impact at that speed was no less than being hit by a white van. She winced and her mouth was clenched by my slightly forceful hug.

"Huh? Are you sure you're not too hard?"

Ignoring Mono's complaints, I picked up my short sword and threw it at the Wolf Woman; it was the only thing I had that could withstand the black mist.

The Wolf Woman had lightning-fast reflexes; she deflected the accelerating short sword with a claw, then raised her long, hooked claws once more, preparing to continue spreading the black mist.

But this time, he couldn't bring himself to swing it down.

Her claws were bound by a long whip that wrapped around her from behind.

Then, the blue-green lightning was transmitted through the whip to the witch.

"Aww!!"

The Wolf Woman howled in pain, her wrists, which were wrapped in the whip, were charred black by the high-voltage current.

Very good.

The magical girl's whip seemed to be made of restrained electric current; not only was it not corroded by the black mist, but it could also provide electrotherapy to the Wolf Woman.

There really is a rock-paper-scissors relationship between magic. She's a formidable enemy to me, but to other magical girls...

"Wow! Ahhh!!"

The whip-wielding magical girl suddenly flung her whip away. Upon closer inspection, her palm had been corroded by the black mist, a layer of flesh peeling away to reveal stark white bone...

"The black mist Past along the whip! Perhaps it didn't notice the approaching danger because the lightning was so dazzling?"

The little thing explained in my mind.

Unlike the severely injured magical girl, the Wolf Woman's roasted arm visibly healed after she shook off the lightning whip... She enjoyed the blessing of this enormous Witch Domain.

"Mono."

"What's up?"

Since the three magical girls couldn't understand anyway, I simply started talking to myself.

"Can you devour the Dark Energy within this guy?"

"Sure! You hold her, I'll eat!"

"You're crazy! Then I'm afraid I'll have nothing left!"

I thought absorbing darkness was the universal method for dealing with witches, but I never expected there to be such an unbearable Wolf Woman.

"You should have hugged her before she ripped off and turned into a bikini berserker."

"Trying to hold onto the enemy as soon as the fight starts... I think that fighting style is a bit abnormal."

Not only would you be despised by your enemies, but even your own allies would instinctively distance themselves from you, right?

Next, the Chainsaw Girl went up and fought the Wolf Woman three rounds. Her chainsaw was able to withstand the corrosion of the black mist. The magical girl's weapon was born from the Star Crystal, so it was probably just as sturdy as the Star Crystal.

However, the black mist that splattered during the battle hampered our movements, though the Wolf Woman herself didn't seem to mind...

The whip-wielding girl was unable to continue fighting due to a hand injury, Chainsaw Girl also retreated. Finally, the staff-wielding girl, who most resembled a magical girl, made her move.

Using the time bought for her by the Chainsaw Girl, the staff girl's magic was ready.

A massive scythe extended from the tip of the staff, radiating a holy white light as it swept towards the approaching Wolf Woman. However, the Wolf Woman could easily Past such a wide and sweeping movement with a simple leap.

But I didn't expect that the scythe that swept below the Wolf Woman would ignore inertia and slash upwards at a right angle. Although the Wolf Woman tried her best to dodge in the air, she still had her right arm cut off.

That's powerful magic, but it takes a lot of time.

This is the biggest victory so far.

"Such a sharp scythe... No, is that also in an energy state?"

The magical girls who came from the City School are all strong. Even if they can't fight alone, they can still manage to take on the witch when they form a team.

He stepped forward and used his sword to pry open the Wolf Woman's severed arm. Even with the enhancement of his domain, arm regeneration wasn't instantaneous. However, the one-armed Wolf Woman hadn't lost her fighting spirit. Sparks flew as she dragged her claws across the ground. As the saying goes, a wounded beast is more dangerous. Black mist surged from the Wolf Woman's body, leaving a trail of tails with every few steps, forming a black mist barrier around her... It was completely impossible to get close.

But I'm just buying myself some time.

But a second sickle awaited her.

"Awooo!"

Howling and yelling, the Wolf Woman didn't dodge or flinch as she swung her claws at the giant scythe. But this time, the scythe actually separated from her claws and severed the Wolf Woman's left arm.

Does it involve arbitrarily changing weapon forms?

With both hands gone and claws lost, the Wolf Woman had no chance of winning.

However, the staff-wielding girl had been fighting the Monster earlier, and now, having used two powerful attacks in quick succession, she was panting heavily due to the depletion of her magic power.

Seizing the opportunity, the Wolf Woman puffed out her cheeks and unleashed a torrent of black breath towards the staff-wielding magical girl... No, it was like a dark cloud collapsing, overwhelming everything, as if she were expelling all the black mist from her body in one breath. Not only the staff-wielding magical girl, but everyone else would also find it difficult to escape.

I am capable of escaping, but even using "Present Moment" I can only save one person.

"The breath won't disappear immediately after it ends. How many times do you think you've used your pocket watch today? Our magic and darkness can't hold on any longer!"

The little creatures were excitedly chattering in my ear, but I couldn't just stand by and watch them die, could I?

"There are always deaths in war. Where you can't see them, magical girls must have been taken care of by Monster or witches!"

But I lured the Wolf Woman here...

"Then let's find a way to shut her up."

Unable to approach, the only option is to throw it.

But... a sword?

Beheading her is manageable, but gagging her mouth with a sword might be difficult, since the three-meter radius around her is a no-go zone, and even if I combine my swords, they're not that long... If throwing could finish her off, I wouldn't have dragged this out.

"Use her arm!"

... To attack the enemy with the enemy's severed limbs?

I'll give it a try.

The black mist had dissipated from the severed arm. I picked up the Wolf Woman's left arm and smashed it Past her face, accelerating to more than forty times the normal speed. Anything thrown at it would be very powerful, and her arm was indeed able to resist the corrosion of the black mist. It passed through the black mist's forbidden zone and hit the Wolf Woman's face.

"You missed! Aim for her mouth!"

I'm not good at throwing things! If Falcon were here, it might be possible, but throwing things like that randomly wouldn't possibly get them into her mouth; the black mist is still spreading from her mouth at an extremely fast speed...

No matter what I do, I have no intention of stopping my breath attack; I'll take these three magical girls with me, even if it costs me my last breath.

"Don't give up yet."

Voices other than Mono appeared in my mind.

--Lockon--

A red crosshair appeared from the Werewolf's mouth.

"Now, throw it again."

A soft, ethereal female voice.

The little creature hurriedly said, "This... this voice isn't mine!"

Her voice sounded a little weak.

The female voice continued, "Don't panic. My magic can make me a ghost, and I will possess the powers that people commonly associate with ghosts, such as possession, telepathy, the ability to walk through walls, and the power to cause paranormal phenomena."

Being able to talk to me while in accelerated mode...

Am I possessed?
