(Miluno)

The moment I touched "that," the black flames on my body vanished.

However, I still couldn't regain control of my body. In that brief moment, the beast that had taken over my body seemed to be intimidated by what it had touched...

It actually grew.

Barbara's potion worked well, but I haven't received the antidote yet...

"You bastard, your very existence is a sin!"

Fomalhaut's already surging magic power, like an avalanche, broke through its limits at this moment, and the cold sword energy, carrying a chilling killing intent, rushed towards "me".

"Unforgivable!"

How can you blame me?!

Fomalhaut's sword energy attacks are invisible, but "I" can always dodge them. However, there is a problem that cannot be ignored.

The surrounding temperature was dropping lower and lower. Although I was managing to hold on by relying on my physical strength and the Time Acceleration, my movements were becoming increasingly sluggish and stiff. If this continued, I would eventually freeze here...

I can't stand this low temperature, but I don't plan to run away.

Ultimately, the reason why Fomalhaut always gives me trouble is her indiscriminately low-temperature domain and her incredibly hard, iron-like ice shell.

However, the abdomen, which was not covered by the ice armor, was a good haven, and was even a little warm with its fur. Therefore, even though "I" had touched the Tower of Babel, "I" still decided to put my hand into the furry deer hair.

Not only that...

I also started removing the ice armor on the sides of the deer's body. That thing was like horse armor, which was armor plates that were directly draped over the body. It could be pulled off with a little force. Because I was very fast, I was able to stick to the bottom of Fomalhaut's belly. Even if she bent over, she couldn't touch it. She could only watch as I put my hands into the fluffy, soft deer fur to keep warm.

"Enough! How far do you intend to humiliate me?!"

I also wanted to stop this farce as soon as possible, but after drinking Professor Stratos's Blacklight Potion and awakening the so-called "Great Will," my own will became an outsider. The worst part was that... the unknown thing controlling my body had completely unpredictable behavior and logic. At this point, it had stopped being aggressive and was even acting like it was taking advantage of me.

If we wanted to take down Fomalhaut, the moment when he exposed his deer belly was the perfect opportunity.

Mono?

I called out to the little thing in my head, but there was still no response.

If it's really a small creature, even if it doesn't want to talk to me, it should at least try to be more clever.

Fomalhaut simply reverted to his half-deer form, not only returning to human shape, but even his ice sword and the two horns on his head became smaller.

She was still wearing full-body armor made of ice, but the fur was gone.

"Fu! Fu!"

"I" seemed dissatisfied with this, letting out a strange, beastly roar. The black flames around my body surged again, and I opened my mouth and bit into the hard ice armor, actually managing to gnaw off a piece with my teeth...

Wrong.

This isn't some kind of superhuman strength or magic; it's time magic.

The ice armor that had shattered from Fomalhaut was still frozen in mid-air. The fracture was a slit formed by acceleration and deceleration. I had tried to destroy objects using time before, but none of them had such a simple and brutal destructive power.

Fomalhaut's countermeasure was even more direct; she simply discarded the ice sword and abandoned the honor of being a swordsman.

"Ughhhhhh!!!"

She roared along with her magic, her angry blue icy eyes flashing with blizzard energy, and the surrounding temperature approached absolute zero. In an instant, the north wind howled, and frost covered the land for miles. She lived up to her name as the Winter General, summoning winter with her own power.

No, now is not the time to admire them!

The temperature must have dropped to below -100 degrees Celsius, right?

My consciousness began to drift again, and my body started to feel hot.

This is not a good thing; it's a symptom of hypothermia.

That's it!

To freeze to death when you're completely out of control!

However, they did not freeze to death.

The storm stopped at some point, and so did Fomalhaut's magic, but her face remained contorted with rage.

Yes, her time was paused by the "Present Moment".

Thanks to the Blacklight Potion, the magic power within me surged dramatically, and the Dark Energy was so abundant it was almost out of control, enough to sustain the pocket watch for an extended period of time.

I tried to touch Fomalhaut.

However, individuals under the influence of "the Present Moment" are in an "invincible" state, like an absolutely solid wax figure. Even though "I" cannot touch the suspended Fomalhaut, "I" still cannot stop stroking it... It feels like a pervert on a tram.

It really is Mono!

Why aren't you replying to me?

Aldebaran remotely controlled the "Great Hand" towards the City School. Ceruno and the others were in danger; now was not the time to wait and see. Even if they didn't go back to help, they should at least try to sabotage the "Great Hand's" control mechanism...

I, however, paid no attention to these matters and instead embraced Fomalhaut.

However, this moose girl is completely hard; even with time frozen, there's absolutely no soft touch. So, these kinds of short films are all fake. How can frozen time be interfered with externally?

Not only was it hard, but it was also very cold; holding her felt like holding a beautiful ice sculpture of a pretty girl.

Surprisingly, there really is something that can interfere.

The darkness within Fomalhaut's body is being continuously absorbed by "me," unaffected by the time-stopping effect.

So, all that she had been searching through Fomalhaut was for this...

I'm trying to develop a hypothesis for this situation.

The "Archivist" said that Mono and the others were "seeds".

Perhaps Professor Stratos's Blacklight Potion didn't awaken some "Great Will," but rather Mono's instinct as a seed, in order to become a complete god. Therefore, "my" body also thirsted for Dark Energy, even sucking out the darkness from the Witch Crystal.

But this is not a good thing.

It might render Fomalhaut powerless, but it would be terrible for me. If I continue absorbing like this, and if Mono becomes a god in this state, I might never be able to get my body back.

However, Fomalhaut can also be described as having a rich cultural heritage.

She absorbed the energy for seven or eight minutes without drying up completely. The difference between her and other witches is like the difference between Sirius and ordinary magical girls. No wonder her strength is so much higher than that of other witches.

Call out--

Someone interrupted my meal.

Several white iron lances with gold patterns came hurtling through the air, making a sharp whistling sound as they rubbed against it. They weren't fast, at least not for me, but the simultaneous attack of several lances blocked all my possible escape routes. The result of my hasty dodge was that one of the lances pierced right through my abdomen. The powerful momentum of the lance knocked me down, and I landed on my back, nailed to the ground.

Why didn't you report the situation?

The reinforcements from Fomalhaut were...

Sun Ji.
