Be Proud, You Were Strong (Two-in-One)

Taiping Prefecture Whale Sea Park:

The Lunar Eclipse Sword Qi, with its "200%" power emanating from the Moon God, almost cleaved the entire Whale Sea Park in two, covering an area from east to west.

The sandy beach on the east coast slowly flows towards the crack.

And in the square in the center of the park.

Hell and the Moon God are a hundred meters apart.

In this battle, Hell deliberately limited its magic output limit, maintaining it at only three times the normal level.

The Sukuna-Level Total Magic Power being three times greater is actually 30% more than the total magical power of the Magical Girl Moon God.

But there's a reason why the Moon God has been famous for so long.

Her magic output efficiency is almost on par with Hell's, both around 90%, making her a complete genius magical girl.

It's no wonder that Wuhua felt anxious about her cousin's strength, because the gap in talent between the two was indeed quite large.

While pondering, the Miss Hell raised her hand first, aimed at the Moon God in front of her, and coldly recited. "The girl flicked her right hand, and an invisible, intangible slash instantly flew out."

Upon hearing this, the Moon God raised her sword, and with a "clang," she cleaved the invisible slash from Hell in two.

The cleaving strike split to either side, leaving two deep trenches.

Immediately following, the Moon God swung her sword backhand, unleashing a moon-white sword aura, the inherent gravity of which dragged it towards Hell.

This is one of the characteristics of the Moon God's Cursed Technique "Dark Side of the Moon": gravitational pull, similar to automatic tracking.

Miss Hell frowned slightly, raised her hand and unleashed two slashes, barely managing to shatter the Moon God's sword energy.

Then, she cautiously stepped back.

Meanwhile, the Moon God drew her long sword and pursued the girl closely, intending to drag the battle into the melee combat she excelled at.

Witch Bubble's voice trailed off slightly in the live stream. "Hmm~ It seems that Miss Hell's regular slashes aren't quite powerful enough in battles against opponents of the same level."

"In terms of Cursed Technique performance alone, Miss Hell is at a complete disadvantage."

Netizens are discussing it. "It's true, the gravitational effect of the Dark Side of the Moon distorts the surrounding space. Under the same magic power output, Little Hell needs two 'Dispel' spells to offset one sword aura."

"Hehe... Hell Kitty looks so cute when it's on guard. Is it worried that if it loses, it'll have to call me 'Big Sister'?"

At the same time, the Moon God had already teleported to the front of Hell and delivered a diagonal slash towards Hell.

She showed no mercy in her attacks.

Since magical girls can deactivate their transformation when they suffer a fatal injury, she wasn't worried about harming Miss Hell's true form.

Faced with the incoming longsword, Miss Hell raised her hand after a moment.

"Sizzle!!"

A scene that surprised the audience unfolded.

The Moon God's silver-white longsword was actually intercepted by Miss Hell in mid-air with one hand.

But if you look closely, you'll see that endless tiny slashes are constantly being generated in Miss Hell's palm.

The slashing attack Limitless!

Having played the Malevolent Shrine for so long, even the most clueless witch would naturally develop these skills.

Witch Bubble's voice was full of surprise, and she immediately explained to the fans, "I understand, this move is Little Hell covering the 'Dissolve' slash in his palm to defend against and block the blade."

"This move will consume an enormous amount of magic power!"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than Hell, at the very moment he blocked the blade, grabbed the Moon God's wrist with his other hand.

""Eight"!"

"Call out

A sudden surge of gravity erupted from the Moon God, pulling her out, but she still couldn't avoid being touched by Hell.

With a sharp tear, a gaping wound appeared on the Moon God's shoulder, severing her arm completely.

The Miss Hell lightly flicked the blood off her hands, put one hand on her hip, looked at the panting Moon God, and smiled, "Sorry, Moon God Goddess, my 'eight' must hurt a lot."

"Ugh...!"

However, the Moon God simply raised her head slowly, her delicate face flushed with intense excitement. "It's alright, I can handle it...!"

Her silvery-white magic surged, quickly repairing her arm—a magical girl's innate "magical repair."

Its efficiency is slower than Miss Hell's Reverse Cursed Technique, and it cannot be used externally or in a non-transformed state.

Hell's gaze was complicated. She knew that Moon God was a magical girl who loved fighting, but she didn't expect her to be so excited.

The next second, the Moon God flashed in front of Hell, her swords aimed straight for vital points, forcing Miss Hell to fight and retreat simultaneously.

The battle between the two thrilled netizens. "Awesome! So awesome!!"

"That's what I want to see online!"

"Miss Moon God Goddess seems aggressive, but Hell always manages to turn the tables at crucial moments. This battle... is becoming increasingly incomprehensible!"

Suddenly, as the Moon God slashed horizontally, her magical power erupted.

"In the name of the Magical Girl Moon God, descend, Nightmare Moon!"

In an instant, a jet-black domain with a diameter of two hundred meters engulfed Hell and the Moon God.

Unlike other magical girls, the Moon God's domain has one major characteristic: its vast area.

It can be said that among all the Closed Domain of magical girls, Moon God's Domain is the most extensive.

This was evident in the previous Battle of Surt.

As the Moon God's Domain Expansion, the live stream's perspective shifted to the area within it.

This is a camera installed by the technical department on the Whale Sea Monument.

Within the Moon God's domain, all was pitch black: a huge, silvery-white full moon descended behind the Moon God Goddess.

Enormous, eerie, and unbearable to look at.

The live stream instantly exploded. "Holy crap, this is the first time I've ever seen the inner view of the Moon God's Realm. It's giving me megalophobia a real jolt...!"

"I'm terrified! Is this the realm of the Moon God Goddess?"

"Nightmare Moon |: After the Domain Expansion, it applies a guaranteed hit effect to all targets within the field, while also disrupting their magic circuits, preventing them from using Magic Cursed Technique."

Note: Nightmare Moon will use gravity to distort the domain barriers of other magical girls during domain battles, preventing them from deploying smoothly.

As the target of the domain's lock-in, Miss Hell found herself in a pseudo-circuit breaker state when she was captured and brought into the domain.

Unable to use Magic Cursed Technique, and even moving is extremely difficult.

Because of that terrifying gravity, she was always firmly held in place.

More importantly, due to the nature of the Moon God's domain, other magical girls are unable to open their domains with her immediately.

At this moment, a smile appeared on the Moon God's crimson cheeks, "Miss Hell, my domain has a significant advantage when fighting in magical girl civil wars."

Having said that, the Moon God drew her sword and charged.

Under the interference of the domain, Miss Hell had nowhere to hide and could only slightly deviate from her body, where she was instantly pierced through the shoulder by the silver-white longsword.

Before the Moon God could launch her next attack, Miss Hell had already landed a punch on Moon God abdomen.

Unfortunately, after Uncle Ji Yuan's special elbow training, Hell has gained extremely rich experience in elbow techniques.

"Ugh!"

The girl let out a muffled groan, instantly blasted back by Hell's punch. She hadn't expected Hell to react so quickly even within her domain.

At that moment, Hell raised his hand, grabbed the long knife embedded in her shoulder, slowly pulled it out, and lightly flicked off the blood.

He tossed it casually, and it embedded itself deeply in the nearby ground.

The young lady then lowered her eyes and smiled, "This game of house is over."

After saying this, the girl gently closed her eyes, raised her hands to form a hand seal, causing the Moon God to feel an extreme sense of crisis.

Wait a minute, could Little Hell possibly defy its own gravitational pull and create a domain?!

Moon God guessed correctly.

Hell can indeed do this because her Domain Expansion in an open, rather than closed, manner.

The enclosed Domain Expansion relies on the outer shell and inner walls of the Barrier Technique, and the power of Nightmare Moon lies in its ability to distort the opponent's barrier.

In short: In civil wars and conflicts within Closed Domain, Moon God is always invincible, to the point that other magical girls can't even open their domains.

This is also why Whale Song and other top figures in the magical girl genre previously believed that Moon God would win this civil war.

The title "Goddess of Civil War" is truly fitting for Miss Moon God.

But Miss Hell is different.

Her Open Domain has no enclosed shell, but rather uses the entire world as a backdrop, splashing ink and painting upon it.

While the Nightmare Moon's gravity can distort the barrier, it cannot distort the world itself, and therefore cannot affect "Malevolent Shrine".

Furthermore, although Hell had previously revealed its own Open Domain, this technique had long been lost to the magical world.

Therefore, the Moon God would never have imagined that the Open Domain is actually unaffected by gravity and can counter her "Nightmare Moon".

Of.

Under the Moon God's astonished gaze, the Miss Hell uttered softly:

Domain Expansion...

"The Malevolent Shrine!"

Crimson blood rained down from the sky, instantly staining the ground beneath Hell's feet, turning it into a pool of blood.

A rumbling shrine of demons and Buddhist Shrine, forged from bones and bull heads, rose from the ground behind Miss Hell, exuding a terrifying aura of evil and murderous intent.

At this moment, the live stream switched to a different satellite feature.

Looking down from above, one could see that the "Malevolent Shrine" domain, with a radius of 200 meters and a diameter of 400 meters, directly covered the Moon God's "Nightmare Moon" from bottom to top.

This is the first time Miss Hell has used Open Domain to fight against Closed Domain in front of the public.

Prior to this, only Xiaohong and her two companions, along with the witch Bubble who had watched the entire battle, knew about this information regarding the Frost and Snow battle.

The other members of the Witches' Association only joined the spectator view after Frost and Snow's domain was shattered by Hell and she entered the witch transformation stage. Witch Bubble quickly explained to the fans in the live stream, "Moon God Goddess's domain has an absolute advantage in domain battles because of its inherent gravitational properties."

"But the Open Domain is different. Miss Hell's Open Domain uses the world as its canvas and will not be distorted by the gravity of |Dream Moon."

More importantly, Open Domain have absolute dominance over Closed Domain.

At this point, Bubble chuckled softly, "This is the power of the Open Domain, and the reason it's called a divine Miracles in the magical world."

No sooner had the words left her lips than an invisible slash, seen from high above, struck the outer shell of Miss Moon God Goddess's domain.

In less than a second, the inky black outer shell of the domain shattered, and blinding silver moonlight filled the live stream room.

Only when the moonlight faded did the audience see the figures of the Moon God and the Miss Hell.

Among them, the Moon God is kneeling on one knee, covering her mouth with one hand, and blood can be vaguely seen overflowing from the corner of her mouth, while a golden barrier surrounds her.

That was a move that Frost and Snow had used before, which could negate the "Simple Barrier" that was guaranteed to hit the area. The downside was that it prevented movement and continuously consumed magic power.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

The Malevolent Shrine's attacks never stopped. As soon as the Moon God's Simple Barrier was broken, she would be defeated by "8" and thus exit her transformed state.

No matter how you look at it, it seems like Miss Hell won this battle!

Netizens are buzzing with discussion. "Little Hell won!"

"The Moon God's domain will melt for at least three minutes. Before that, her Simple Barrier won't hold; she'll just have to wait to die."

"Waaah, can't I really bear to see Miss Hell fall in battle? No way! I want to see her face full of resentment, sobbing and holding back her tears."

"No, there's a twist!"

Suddenly, the witch Bubble's voice rang out. "Hmm, it seems our Moon God Goddess hasn't given up yet."

As soon as she finished speaking, the Moon God slowly lowered her head while panting, and the silver-white magic power on her body suddenly turned pitch black.

Miss Hell's eyes flashed, a hint of surprise in her eyes. "Reverse Cursed Technique -?"

That's right, the Reverse Cursed Technique.

This is the Moon God's hidden trump card, an ability she mastered long ago through self-study using some ancient books from the magical world.

Unlike the "magical repair" that comes with magical girls' transformations, "Reverse Cursed Technique" can be used to repair Cursed Technique Burnout.

Ordinary "magical repair" cannot do this.

Once the domain ends, this ability will melt away along with the Cursed Technique, and it cannot be used during the melting period.

In other words, the Reverse Cursed Technique is a superior form of "Magic Repair".

It can not only heal injuries more efficiently, but also repair Cursed Technique Burnout and area meltdowns.

Witch Bubble continued her explanation, "The Reverse Cursed Technique is a higher-level magical technique than regular magical healing. It achieves healing and melting effects by multiplying and reversing the entropy-reversing magic."

"Hmm... As far as I know, there are probably no more than five people in the entire magical world right now, including all magical girls and magicians, who can use this technique."

Inside the convenience store outside the venue.

Xiaohong was utterly astonished by this scene. "Reverse, reverse, Reverse Cursed Technique! Miss Moon God Goddess can also Reverse Cursed Technique?!"

Whale Song, chewing on a grilled chicken skewer beside him, nodded upon hearing this. "Yes, it's the Reverse Cursed Technique."

Xiaohong was even more confused about the situation on the field. "But if it's just a matter of Reverse Cursed Technique, and the game continues to drag on, won't Miss Hell be the winner anyway?"

Whale Song closed his eyes and thought for a while longer, "Not necessarily, the Moon God still has a chance."

The words had barely left his mouth.

The Moon God, who was being relentlessly attacked by countless slashes, suddenly removed her Simple Barrier, allowing "Malevolent Shrine" to lock onto her.

The "eight" strike flashed across her neck in an instant.

The next second, the Reverse Cursed Technique healed him.

Seeing this, the young lady tilted her head slightly and said casually, "The efficiency of the Reverse Cursed Technique is quite good, about half of my level, but that's all."

While resisting the attacks and healing herself, the Moon God smiled and said, "To receive such high praise from Little Hell?"

"Big sister, I'm so happy!"

Um?

Hell seemed to be deep in thought.

Just then, the moon-shaped longsword that the young lady had casually tossed aside suddenly pierced through her Buddhist Shrine with a twisted gravitational pull, and aimed at her back.

"Snap!"

As the long sword flashed, the young lady dodged to the side, her arm was severed and flew up, a hint of "surprise" flashing in her eyes, her own blood splattering on her face.

Because both the main body and the Buddhist Shrine suffered "severe damage" at the same time, the Malevolent Shrine covered the entire area disappeared.

After a brief moment of surprise, Hell chuckled softly, praising as he healed his severed arm, "Is this a tactic you came up with on the spur of the moment? Not bad, very good."

The existence of that knife was very special; it seemed to be the core of the "Dark Side of the Moon" Cursed Technique and could not be locked by any domain, which was the reason why it could successfully launch a sneak attack. Of course, Hell's own acting skills also played a part.

The Moon God caught the approaching silver-white longsword, revealing an excited smile, "Even when you're injured, you're still so adorable... Miss Hell."

Having said that, the Moon God once again swung her sword.

At this moment, they don't have much time to restore the circuit breaker.

The Moon God planned to use her weapon advantage to achieve victory in this short period of time.

We must prevent Hell from having the opportunity to repair the meltdown and reopen the realm.

In a short while, the two exchanged blows.

Following that, the Moon God repaired her Cursed Technique's effects first, then approached Hell and unleashed a Lunar Eclipse Sword Qi.

Under the influence of gravity, Hell dodged the sword energy, but his movements were slowed down by three beats in an instant.

With a swift movement, the Moon God pursued, her long blade piercing through the shoulder of Miss Hell, who then crashed into Hell's arms.

The Moon God felt both heartache and excitement, thinking to herself, "I'm sorry, Little Hell, but I really, really want to hear you call me 'Big Sister'...!"

The voice of Witch Bubble also rang out in the live stream. "First, use the Reverse Cursed Technique to restore control of the Moon Blade, then use the longsword to shatter the Buddhist Shrine, severely injuring Little Hell. Next, engage in close combat, while using the first-strike advantage to repair the Cursed Technique. Every step is impeccable."

"Little Hell seems to have been caught off guard, and has fallen into a complete disadvantage."

"So... Magical Girl Moon God won?"

The words had barely left his mouth.

Miss Hell, whose shoulder had been pierced by a long sword, showed a hint of relief in her eyes, but a deep red flame had somehow ignited in her hand.

One "stove" is lit!

Having overcome the Binding Vow imposed by Hell in the Battle of Surt, her Furnace: Open, startup time, and charge time are now almost completely resolved.

"My Reverse Cursed Technique can surpass the original."

The girl's voice carried a hint of laughter.

Crimson flames were released from Miss Hell's hands, like a demon from Hell breaking free of its cage.

The Moon God's pupils trembled for a moment, but in the end... she unusually did not choose to dodge, but instead took the initiative to release her grip on the hilt of the sword.

Then, she took the opportunity to hug Miss Hell tightly.

Feeling Miss Hell's petite body tightly embraced in her arms, the Moon God gently lowered her eyes, revealing a satisfied expression.

She whispered in Hell's ear, in a voice only the two of them could hear. "You look cute when you're so confident, Miss Hell."

Boom!!

A massive explosion of fire engulfed Hell and the Moon God.

And all of this happened in a mere instant.

The live stream chat exploded with excitement, showering viewers with lavish gifts one after another. "Holy crap, what happened?! Didn't Moon God win? Why is Lord Hell still able to open the Furnace: Open?!"

"It's the difference in the Reverse Cursed Technique! Miss Hell's Reverse Cursed Technique is probably more than twice as efficient as Moon God's!!"

Witch Bubble chuckled, "Looks like I need to take back what I just said. Victory in this battle belongs to Magical Girl Hell."

0

The footage from the live stream.

After the explosion, Furnace: Open over a radius of several hundred meters, subsided, the Moon God Goddess, who had already deactivated her transformation, staggered back two steps and gently sat down on the ground. The girl with moon-white eyes looked up and smiled helplessly, "You went easy on me, didn't you? Miss Hell, it seems you weren't quite satisfied at all..."

Upon hearing this, Hell shook her head. "So far, you're the most powerful magical girl I've ever met."

"So be proud of it, Miss Moon God Goddess, you are truly strong." As the girl spoke, she gently dispersed the remaining flames in her hand.

"Yeah..."

The Moon God then revealed a happy smile before fainting.

Hell swiftly caught the other party and escorted Moon God to the rest area that had been prepared beforehand.

High in the sky, Mo Chou sat on the satellite. Only after seeing that the battle was over did she slowly get up and stretch her neck.

They disappeared from the spot.

Thus, the ultimate showdown between Magical Girl Hell and Moon God came to an end.

Witch Bubble then left the live stream, returning the privileges to the technical department of Colossus Company, much to the relief of the staff.

The live stream chat was flooded with comments. "I can't take it anymore, my mind is still a mess. How did Miss win? Wasn't Moon God Goddess just having the upper hand?"

"Requesting a 10,000-word analysis!"

"Where's the Magical Girl Realm God? Help!"

Immediately after the live stream ended, major video bloggers began creating analysis videos, because the battle was just too exciting.

You can't explain it without posting three to five videos.

The reactions of the various factions to this were slightly different.

Lin Xiaohong excitedly hugged Whale Song and shook her in the convenience store. "Miss Hell won!! She even managed to turn the tide in such a desperate situation!"

Whale Song sipped her bubble tea. "Ugh! My prediction was wrong. The Magical Girl Hell is even more intense than I imagined."

Scarlet Spider on the rooftop let out a "whoosh!" and exclaimed, "That was a fantastic battle, boss! What do you think?!"

Upon hearing this, Red Owl turned around calmly. "They are more dangerous than I thought."

Especially in Magical Girl Hell, she seems to have become even stronger compared to her battle with Surt.

The Hundred Battles Red Owl vaguely sensed that Hell had been holding back in this fight, and that she had many opportunities to instantly kill Moon God.

However, she showed mercy, giving the Moon God a chance to catch her breath and retaliate. But her acting was so good that only Red Owl could see through it.

After all, this is an exhibition match, so it's normal for them to go easy on each other, Red Owl thought to himself.

But for him, this was a dangerous bonus point in the Magical Girl Hell.

Inside the Ministry of Magic, Red Rain sat in a chair, watching the lively comments in the live stream, and slowly closed her laptop.

In Subspace.

The witches were incredibly excited. "This is so thrilling, hahaha! This battle is much more interesting than the one with Surt. I never expected that Moon God Goddess would have Reverse Cursed Technique hidden away."

"Waaah, if only I were the Moon God, I'd love to hug Little Hell's tiny waist too. It looks so soft and easy to hold."

"Pathetic. If I were the Moon God, I'd hug Little Hell tightly and not let go, then leave a hickey on her neck."

"That's all you've got, huh."

Looking at the witches' "enthusiastic" enthusiasm, Bubble smiled helplessly.

As of now, only she in the Witches' Association knows that Hell's strength actually far surpasses that of the Moon God, because the latter had even killed Ji Yuan.

If she were truly intent on killing, the Moon God probably wouldn't last ten rounds.

"They've released way too much water, this Little Hell," Bubble thought.

And at the Mo Family...

Because Mo Chou is away on a business trip.

Mo Xiaochuan ate instant noodles alone, talking to Bai Xiaoxiao on WeChat: "Hell really won! How did you know she would win?!"

Bai Xiaoxiao replied from the other side, "Never mind that, I just know!"

Not far from Bai Xiaoxiao, Miss Hell stretched by the window at dusk, letting out a satisfied hum.

[Miss Witch, congratulations! Your Tree of Calamity has reached its third stage, nourished by the continuous emotional energy of your fans.]

[You can now acquire your third ability.]
