Transform into a magical girl after getting off work

Of course, even in such a state, the magic power of this Remnant Beast was still not to be underestimated.

This pupa-stage Remnant Beast was not in its own lair but inexplicably appeared in this residential area, and thos certainly didn't mean it was something an average Magical Girl could handle: for most Magical Girls, it was still a considerably dangerous enemy.

And at this moment, this enemy, which should have been quite dangerous, lay limp and powerless on the ground.

Apart from the shattered chrysalis around its body, the Remnant Beast seemed to have suffered no severe injuries—its limbs were intact, and its form was fairly distinct, not as if it had sustained any fatal blows.

Yet now, it barely displayed the most basic vital signs, clearly possessing strong and abundant magic power but lying there quietly and powerlessly.

By its side stood a figure that Emerald Sparrow found familiar yet inexplicably strange.

A girl in a black-green stage gown.

The girl's dress was pitch black, almost touching the ground, yet maintaining a slight distance; its surface was embroidered with many green patterns, seemingly unremarkable from afar, but upon closer inspection, they were incredibly intricate and mysterious, emitting an odd aura as well.

Green hair cascaded down the girl's back, reaching her waist, the tips slightly curled and tinged with purple, appearing somewhat abrupt.

The girl wore a pair of black, long gloves that stretched up to her elbows. At the front end of the gloves, long green nails protruded from the girl's hands like sharp claws, fearsomely barbaric.

At that moment, those claws deeply pierced the Remnant Beast's body on the ground, slowly, ever so slowly slicing the body in half.

What did it feel like to be cleaved into two while still alive? Emerald Sparrow did not know, but judging by the creature's constantly twitching body, it was an unbearable ordeal.

Even though the Remnant Beast's movements were now very weak, barely twitching even under the girl's horrifying actions, it was still showing signs of life. However, the girl did not seem to care about this, simply cutting mechanically.

After she had split the Remnant Beast, the girl abruptly stopped, and pale green magic power emerged out of nowhere, swiftly pouring into the Remnant Beast's wound—then, the creature that had nearly been split in two revived once more, as whole as before.

It was just like what Emerald Sparrow had witnessed moments earlier, without the slightest difference.

Having done all this, the girl slightly turned her face, revealing a somewhat joyful smile. Then she reached out again, deep, so deep into the Remnant Beast's body, resuming her slicing.

Clearly, she had repeated this action many times before.

The Remnant Beast, lying on the ground, looked unharmed, but only because it was constantly being healed, its wounds restored. In reality, it had already suffered countless mortal injuries.

The girl kept splitting the Remnant Beast, leaving it in a near-death state, then healed it to bring it back to life, again and again, in a cycle. It was apparent that this was why the Remnant Beast's response to the pain was so feeble.

Indeed, if the Remnant Beast had a soul, it had probably died spiritually, and what was left behind was merely a body that, because it kept being healed, was still alive.

Emerald Sparrow watched the girl in the center of the plaza, feeling as though her throat were blocked, unable to utter a word.

It took her quite some time to compose herself, and finally, she managed to speak out, calling: "...Bo Xue?"

At this call, the girl not far away turned her head.

Within the pitch-black sclera, a pair of sharp vertical pupils looked towards Emerald Sparrow, but the girl's face did not show any trace of ferocity or cruelty, only the purity of a child.

She looked at Emerald Sparrow, and after a brief pause, that innocence turned to delight.

"Teacher! You've come!"

She immediately dropped the Remnant Beast she was holding and scampered over on nimble steps, stopping in front of Emerald Sparrow and pointing to the limp creature on the ground behind her:

"Did you see? I did it, I beat the bad guys just like you! And I punished them severely! They definitely won't dare to do anything bad in their lifetimes!"

"These bad guys were telling me that I don't have a mom and dad, that I should be with them; they said I'm not a real Magical Girl, just imitating others."

"But I'm going to tell them that I am a Magical Girl, I will save everyone, and then punish them severely!"

She stretched out her hand, eagerly pointing towards the other side of the plaza, full of expectation as she looked at Emerald Sparrow: "And over there, Teacher, look!"

Following her gesture, Emerald Sparrow saw that in the direction Bai Jingxuan was pointing, a large group of Abnormal Strategy Bureau staff were being gathered, their wounds wrapped in green magic power, healing them and bringing calm, as if they had fallen into a tranquil sleep.

But beside the group of Abnormal Strategy Bureau staff lay many members of Black Ash Dawn, covered in fatal wounds. Blood had soaked the ground beneath them, yet like trash, they were piled up, ignored by everyone. Your next journey awaits at empire
