My Superpower Is Piloting Magical Girl Corpses?

And on top of that, this world was still in the upswing phase of spiritual energy revival. Who knew what could happen.

So in short, this world's waters ran deep. Lin Guang absolutely couldn't underestimate it.

“…”

Lin Guang closed his eyes slightly, letting the darkness swallow his vision.

—Although Wind Capital was dangerous, and it seemed like it would only become more dangerous as time passed.

But still.

Everything he had dreamed of in the past—that magnificent, turbulent life, that transcendent world—had truly come into his sight now.

Even the transformation belt was already on its way.

In the past, Lin Guang's mindset would have been ecstatic that all this had finally arrived. It would have been enough to make him drop everything he was doing, set aside all his worries, and savor the emotions of youth for a while.

When the young man opened his eyes again, the crimson radiance reflected in those eyes staring back from the mirror wasn't excitement. It was the seriousness of a mind that had calmed down.

It was the look of someone who still had something extremely important left unfinished, some responsibility he had to bear, some promise he could never forget to keep.

"Because… I still owe them a good ending."

The young man's calm muttering echoed in the bathroom.

He looked down at his clenched right fist, then spread it open, gazing at the translucent, crystal-clear Soul Gem in his palm—shaped like a heart yet also like a flame.

This was the reflection of his soul, the contract he had forged with himself.

No matter how exciting Wind Capital might be, it had to be set aside in the face of this.

The next moment, Lin Guang turned and left the bathroom, heading back to the bedroom to lie down.

The system panel spread out before his eyes, and the crimson text box appeared once again.

【System Warning.】

【Your previous attempt has triggered a "Special Plot."】

【If the result of restarting this trial is still unsatisfactory, the system cannot guarantee that it will be able to "restart" the trial again, nor can it guarantee that your spirit will not suffer irreversible damage from the trial.】

【Restart the trial?】

"Yes."

Lin Guang said calmly.

—Ignore the risk, continue confirming.

The next moment.

Another text box popped up before his eyes.

It was as if the system had confirmed Lin Guang's conviction and will, and so it no longer issued warnings or admonishments—only sincere blessings.

【Then, please enjoy the game.】

Lin Guang closed his eyes.

Watch me… beat it in one life!

………………

The cherry-haired girl opened her eyes in the dark world.

【In this game, your identity is: Magical Girl Mengmengxiang.】

【In this game, your mission is: Become a true magical girl.】

【Game Start】

She slowly rose, looking around her.

Dim starlight filtered through the branches of the forest, black fog drifted, and the humid air carried an unpleasant smell.

It was still the familiar Misty Forest, still the unshakable starting point, still the puppet-type minions lurking vaguely in the darkness.

On the surface, nothing seemed to have changed.

But…

The girl turned around, her cherry-red eyes fixed on a certain direction.

A figure—strikingly familiar—had somehow already been standing there.

Silver hair, black eyes, a curvaceous figure, a crisp tactical jacket paired with jeans, and a longsword strapped across her back.

It was Airwen.

And… she was the only one here.

Right now, her pitch-black eyes were colder than they had ever been.

They had barely just entered the trial world, and something that had never happened before had already occurred.

And in the next moment, this silver-haired girl, who always seemed to share an inexplicable understanding with Lin Guang, spoke words she would never have uttered before.

"Enough. Stop right here."

Airwen spoke slowly, her voice completely flat.

"Go wherever you want, do whatever you want. It's all the same to me."

"Whether you want to go play house with Phoenix and Amber, or play some other hero game protecting Kazenari Town, suit yourself."

"But from now on, collecting the Fragments of Hope, purifying the contaminated Sacred Tree, and the matter of the Prophecy Maiden—none of it has anything to do with you anymore."

Her words were cold, carrying an indescribable finality.

"…"

Under Airwen's gaze, the cherry-haired girl was silent for only a moment. Then her eyes suddenly passed over Airwen's shoulder, looking toward a certain direction.

Without any questioning or inquiry, she asked softly, "What about Su Fang?"

Judging by the timing of each cycle, Su Fang should have already left Kazenari Town by now, drawn toward the Outer Realm by the Abyss.

But Airwen—who was always responsible for escorting and protecting her—was standing right in front of her this time.

Which meant…

Su Fang was probably wandering alone now, lost and uncertain in the Outer Realm.

"…"

Airwen said nothing.

Receiving no answer, the cherry-haired girl didn't hesitate. She stepped forward, moving in the direction behind Airwen.

The distance between them grew shorter and shorter, nearly to the point where they would brush past each other.

Just then.

In the pitch-black Misty Forest, a silver-white sword light flashed like a phantom, like a full moon, so fast it seemed to surpass time itself.

And at the same moment, a blazing crimson flame burst forth with a brilliant radiance, like a blazing sun.

Without any time difference between them, the two struck and collided together.

*Clang——*

*Boom!!*

The silver and red lights exploded outward like a sphere of intense energy through the forest, carrying a violent shockwave. The minions near the two figures were instantly blasted away, and the trees groaned under the unbearable force, toppling with hoarse creaks.

But neither of the slender girls at the center of the impact retreated a single step. They simply stood their ground, as if this level of clash was nothing more than a gentle breeze.

The silver phantom sword and the indistinct long staff formed of crimson flame clashed together, held in their hands. They strained against each other, sparks and sword energy scattering at the point of contact.

"…Is that so? What a pity."

The silver-haired girl lowered her gaze slightly, letting out a soft sigh. The Soul Gem at the base of her sword had already begun to emit a silver glow.

"Though, I never really thought I could convince you with just words."

The cherry-haired girl said nothing. Her slender eyelashes trembled slightly, but her beautiful eyes had already begun to shift toward a crimson hue.

Two comrades who had stood back-to-back countless times, who had entrusted their lives, their futures, everything—again and again—to each other. Now, without any warning, their blades were drawn against one another.

The next instant, a grand resonance of magic power erupted from both of them simultaneously.

"One purer than silver, one more resolute than moonlight—"

"Smile, full marks—"

In the chanting of the transformation incantation, their weapons rebounded apart in an instant. Their clothes dissolved and vanished in a flash.

Holy light enveloped the girls' bodies, and the youthful, beautiful silhouettes were laid bare against the dark backdrop.
