ALL NOVEL chapter 26
Episode 26: Ruthless Magical Girl
“【Ruthless Magical Girl】”
The moment Kiryuin chanted that, a strong shockwave emanated from around her.
The windows of the buildings shattered, and debris scattered.
Then, a black aura appeared from somewhere and enveloped Kiryuin’s body, transforming into a majestic outfit befitting an emperor of a great nation.
Having completed her transformation, she glared at the enemy with her jet-black cape fluttering.
“What, the Ruthless Magical Girl…?”
“The legendary first magical girl!”
The first magical girl.
Her name is praised among people and has been feared by the demon tribe for many years.
Each of the five magical girls was equal to or greater than the Seven Demon Emperors, and could easily defeat ten high-ranking demon tribe members, eradicating every demon tribe member that invaded the human world, and protecting humanity’s peace.
“Oh, you know my name… Yes, I am the Ruthless Magical Girl… Elisabeth———”
“No, at your age, it’s impressive you still call yourself a magical girl… Witch would suit you better———”
—
“She’s a girl. If you keep babbling, I’ll make sure you bleed.”
“Oh, I’m sorry…”
The demon, who had unknowingly stepped on Kiryuin’s landmine, hurriedly apologized.
“But well, either way, the outcome for you who hurt my precious junior won’t change…”
In the next moment, Kiryuin’s figure disappeared.
It was as if no one had been there from the beginning.
“I’ll be taking back my adorable junior.”
Immediately after those words were whispered behind him, Fiona vanished from the demon’s arms and reappeared where Kiryuin had been, gently holding the retrieved Noah and Fran.
(What… what was that… We couldn’t even react…)
The demons couldn’t stop trembling from the realization that if Kiryuin had attacked them just now, they would have been dead.
“Fran, take the two of them and get as far away as possible.”
“Yes… understood…”
Fran placed the two on the imagined bed, got on herself, and evacuated to somewhere as far away as possible.
Kiryuin watched them until they were out of sight, then turned back to the demons.
“Now, I can fight without any reservations…”
As soon as Kiryuin took a deep breath, the ground gouged out, and an earthquake occurred.
The tyrannical magical girl Elisabeth… her ability is———god-like physical prowess.
“First, the first one…”
“When did———”
In the next moment, without even uttering a word, the demon’s face was blown to smithereens, and blood splattered.
“Damn, monster!”
Realizing that his comrade had been taken out in an instant and that he was the next target, the demon immediately put up a full-body defense and deployed a six-layered anti-physical shield.
As expected, Kiryuin changed trajectory in mid-air and came at him at high speed.
“Futile struggle…”
The moment Kiryuin swung her fist, the anti-physical shields shattered like tiles, and the demon was hit with a shock.
It was as if he had been struck by a meteorite, and he was violently slammed into the ground.
“I held back a little… you’re still alive, aren’t you? Stand up. I won’t be satisfied until I’ve given you more suffering.”
Kiryuin looked down at the demon with eyes as if looking at trash.
“Ha… ha ha ha… I see… As expected of the first magical girl… Overwhelming… But in the end, you were defeated by Venuzfia… I’ll defeat you and become one of the Seven Demon Emperors…”
“You… you insulted my most precious comrade, didn’t you…? Trash like you, my comrade!!”
—
The air trembled, and an unprecedented killing intent emanated from Kiryuin.
“I thought about crushing your head and killing you, but I’ve changed my mind.”
Approaching the demon, he grabbed its head with one hand and slowly lifted it.
Then, throwing it high into the air, he kicked off the ground and soared far into the sky.
“I’ll blow you away without leaving a trace of your existence.”
“What———”
“Wrath of the Tyrannical God”
In that instant, the demon evaporated without a trace, and a hole opened in the sky.
Even though it was 10 PM, the clear blue sky peeked through the gouged hole.
“…I overdid it… He used to scold me a lot back in the day…”
Kiryuin gazed at the hole in the sky with weary eyes and descended to the ground.
◇
“Commander Kiryuin…”
“Sorry for being late. I’m glad to see you all evacuated safely.”
It’s been less than ten minutes since we parted with the commander…
To think he defeated the high-ranking demon we struggled so much with… The commander’s strength is truly out of this world.
“Yes… We’re treating the wounded now… Especially Noah’s injuries are severe…”
“Let me see.”
The commander gently stroked Noah’s head.
Then, the bleeding from Noah’s wounds stopped, and the minor wounds closed up.
“Amazing…”
“This is the limit of my healing abilities. If it were my former comrades, they could have fully healed him…”
“No… This is more than enough…”
“Heh, I see… Thank you, Fran.”
Saying that, the commander stroked my head.
“Ugh… This makes me feel like a child…”
“To me, you all are like adorable children. …By the way, Fran, can you tell me about the situation of the others and the information about the demons?”
“Yes… Understood…”
I told the commander everything that had happened so far.
As I spoke, the commander’s expression grew darker and darker.
—
—
“Omega, Selek… Are they really here?”
“Yes…”
“I will go to rescue the two of them, defeat Selek, and make contact with Omega. Fran, please continue to take care of the two.”
“Understood… Leave it to me, Commander…”
After hearing my reply and smiling, the Commander flew away.
Christina… Luna… I hope they’re safe…
