"Haa-"
—”
"Haa"
"Haa-"
"I can't take it anymore, I really can't," Youyou said, her back hunched over, arms hanging limply, panting heavily.
Around her were goblin corpses, green-skinned and wearing armor, along with weapons scattered on the ground.
But they were all charred.
This time, she completely drained her magic, leaving not a single drop. If she hadn't experienced this state yesterday, she would have collapsed on the ground by now.
"You've worked hard." Shi Chen suddenly appeared beside her, gently patting her shoulder and praising her.
"Time, time, why, why aren't you making a move...?" Youyou asked weakly.
"You'll find out soon enough," Shi Chen said with a smile.
"Huh?" Youyou didn't understand.
"Don't worry about it," Shi Chen said, bending down to pick Youyou up in his arms.
"Let's go back."
"Talk! Wait!" Suddenly being carried in a princess carry, Youyou instinctively hugged Shichen's neck, her face instantly turning red.
"Time?"
Her voice was a little shrill because of her shyness.
"You're welcome. This is a reward for those who have made contributions."
"A reward? No, no need..." Youyou quickly said.
"Why are you being so polite with me? Aren't we comrades-in-arms?"
"Comrade..."
"That's right, comrade, just accept it."
"In that case, I...I understand."
"Hehe~ Let's go."
Shi Chen smiled and led Youyou back to the carriage, but he did not put her down.
"What are you two doing? Showing off your love? Can't you see where you're going?" Huihui held the little black cat and looked at the two of them with displeasure.
"W-what, what's with all this lovey-dovey stuff...:::::" Youyou huddled in Shichen's arms and muttered a rebuttal.
"Are you jealous?" Shi Chen asked back.
"Huh? What do I have to be jealous of?"
"It's simple. Youyou was the biggest contributor, and she ran out of magic. Isn't it normal for me to hold her like this? You didn't contribute anything, so you can only be envious and jealous."
"What a joke!" Huihui retorted loudly, "Why would I be envious or jealous? I'm just taking precautions in case a powerful enemy appears."
"That's perfect, you don't need to be on the safe side now."
"Huh? What....:"
'
Before Huihui could finish speaking, several bolts of purple lightning suddenly struck the horses in the carriage.
"Cursed Lightning Strike!"
"This is...!"
The crowd looked up at the sky in the direction of the sound and saw a woman flying in mid-air.
Her clothing was somewhat revealing, and her long legs were eye-catching. However, what drew even more attention were the pair of fleshy wings and a slender tail behind her, as well as her bright red hair topped with two horns.
Her image was like a demon, but so alluring that it wasn't particularly frightening.
"Hmph~ You all look exhausted. This time, I'm going to get Lord Volbach back!" the woman said proudly, arms crossed.
"Ah, Anis!" Youyou exclaimed in surprise.
"This is so annoying. It's my Mame no Suke. Shouldn't you just give up?" Megumin said calmly.
"You're the ones who should give up, aren't you? Speaking of which, didn't I already pay you? If you're not willing to hand over Wolbach, then give me back my money." Anis hovered in mid-air, staring at Megumin as he replied.
"Um...:.:" Huihui became embarrassed: "I, I won't be threatened by you. Besides, the followers of the Axis Cult told me that a contract with a demon is like toilet paper... there's no retribution for breaking the contract."
"Haaah?!" Anis couldn't believe she could say such a thing.
"No matter what, isn't this a bit too much?" Youyou couldn't help but complain.
"Who is this Anies?" Shi Chen asked knowingly.
"Her... "You explained awkwardly, "She's probably one of the Demon King's subordinates. I don't know why she wanted to buy Huihui's pet, and ended up getting tricked by Huihui."
1,
"As expected of Huihui." Shichen shook his head and chuckled.
"Indeed..." Youyou found it hard not to agree.
"Hey! Why are you two siding with outsiders?!" Huihui said with dissatisfaction.
"Who told you to be inhuman?" Shi Chen retorted.
"What do you mean by 'inhuman'? The other party is the Demon King's subordinate, isn't it normal for me to do this?" Huihui said shamelessly.
"You're really something..."
"You guys... you're just ignoring me like this?"
Anis looked at the sky and they started talking to themselves, as if she didn't exist, clenching their fists and gritting their teeth.
"That's why I don't trust humans. The reason I stopped the service of granting wishes by making contracts with demons and paying the price with your souls is because after you grant your wishes, you come up with all sorts of nonsense and are unwilling to pay the price! And you always bring up some nonsensical wishes. Humans should be more honest!" Anis said seriously.
"...What's with the lecture? Or is it some kind of devil?!" Shichen couldn't help but complain.
"Ahem." Huihui coughed awkwardly twice.
"But it doesn't matter anymore now."
Anis landed slowly and continued, "My mission is to bring back Lord Volbach. Be prepared!"
"Shichen, put me down quickly," Youyou said.
"What do you want to do?" Shi Chen put her down.
"I want to help Huihui." Youyou knelt down and came to Huihui's side.
"Really, have you forgotten me?" Shichen followed her to Huihui's other side.
"But... this has nothing to do with you."
"We're comrades-in-arms, what are you talking about?"
"Comrade... um!" A smile bloomed on Youyou's lovely face.
"How touching, but you probably don't have much magic left, do you?" Anies mocked.
"What do you mean?" Huihui frowned and questioned, "Did you send all the monsters before?"
"Heh~ Pretty clever." Anies sneered.
"That damned guy!"
"Everyone, let's all go together and help Master Youyou and the others!"
"Alright! Let's all go together!"
Just then, the carriage guards suddenly rushed forward and surrounded Anis.
"Get out of my way, you bunch of weaklings!"
Anis's aura surged, and magic erupted, instantly blasting the guards away, leaving them unable to rise again.
We are no match for them at all.
"What should we do? What should we do?" Youyou asked in a panic.
"Don't worry, I'm here for you," Shi Chen reassured him.
"Time...:
.
"Ha, just a handsome guy with no magic powers, what can you do?" Anies asked.
"Do you really think so?" Shi Chen felt a surge of goodwill towards Anis; this guy really knew how to tell the truth.
"A bluff?" Anies said dismissively.
"No need, I can handle this." Huihui stepped forward and suddenly said.
"What are you planning to do?" Shichen asked with a smirk. Was this girl going to abandon Mame-no-Suke?
"Leave it to me. This time, I'll show you my true strength!"
As Huihui spoke, she stared at Anis, then grabbed Mamenosuke from her arms.
"Anis, didn't you want it? I'll give it to you right now!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Megumin suddenly tossed Mame-no-Suke into the air.
"Meow—Aww—" Ah!"
"Huihui, you..."
Anis, Youyou, and Shichen were all dumbfounded; she could actually do such a thing.
"Lord Volbach!" Anis exclaimed in surprise, and quickly flew into the sky to catch Mame no Suke.
With Mame no Suke in her arms, she breathed a sigh of relief, but a surge of magical energy drew her in.
At that moment, Huihui's staff emitted a dazzling light, and magic began to gather wildly.
"O light that pierces the dawn, O breath of a giant that gallops across the wilderness, obey my covenant, and condemn the sinners and demons of the rose..."
"Wait! Wait! Stop!"
Huihui was stopped by Youyou halfway through reciting the incantation.
"What are you doing? I'm going to blow that fat monster to smithereens!"
"What are you doing? Mamenosuke is still here!"
"It is my familiar, and it is only right that it sacrifices itself for me!"
"What nonsense are you spouting! Don't be so heartless!"
"Let me go!"
"You just won't let go... huh?"
Just then, a massive amount of magical power gathered in the sky, and then a huge purple energy ball formed from magical power appeared above Anis's head.
"O Lord, ruler of sloth and tyranny, of evil, grant me the power to defy the heavens, through the seven gates of the abyss!"
The purple magic energy ball grew larger and larger, seemingly blotting out the sky!
Cold sweat streamed down Huihui's face, but she was suddenly drawn to the gold bracelet on Anis's wrist.
"Isn't that my stuff? Thank you for your patronage!" Huihui even had the time to bow and express her gratitude.
"What...did you say?"
Anis suddenly recalled his experience in the Crimson Demon Village, being chased by that group of lunatics... all because of this bracelet!
At that moment, an unprecedented surge of anger welled up within him!
"You bastard! So you're those two guys' daughter!"
In the sky, the energy sphere formed by magic grew even larger, casting a shadow over the entire earth.
"Ah..." Huihui was stunned.
"This is it, we're doomed!"
The girl cried out, "What can we do? What can we do? Who can save us! Gods, please save us! Goddess of Fortune, Goddess Eris!"
"Idiot, you're a Crimson Demon, you should be praying to the God of Destruction." Megumin even had the mood to complain.
"No, no, no, it should be asking the water goddess Aqua for help," Tokichi chimed in, also wanting to join in the吐槽 (tu cao, a Chinese internet slang term for sarcastic or critical commentary).
"Despicable and ugly humans, die... huh!?"
brush!
Suddenly, it sounded like chanting in his ears, and in the distance behind Anis, a holy light shone on the earth.
Dazzling and radiant.
