I'm a magical girl in the future

Chapter 118 Reversal

Almost immediately, Ji Xia rushed to the side of the evil fallen power.

The evil-dominating Heavenly Authority stared intently at her, intending to see what tricks Ji Xia would pull.

She neither closed in for a quick melee nor created distance for a ranged attack... but instead rushed to the side? What was she planning to do?

While the Fallen Celestial Authority was puzzled, the Fallen Celestial Pivot on the other side quickly discovered Ji Xia's purpose—

She used the power of the Fallen Gods as the "origin" and began a "run around the pillar" with the Fallen Gods' pivot!

Indeed, this posture allowed Tianquan to block his way. Evil Heavenly Pivot reached out, intending to activate his mental image to "pull" Ji Xia over, but Ji Xia's positioning was too tricky, allowing Evil Heavenly Pivot's body to stand between him and Ji Xia. If he were to force it, it would likely affect his companion first.

"Tch, clever little trick." The Fallen Heavenly Authority immediately understood Ji Xia's intention. She was using herself as a "cover" to evade the gravitational control of the Celestial Pivot.

Tianquan looked at Tianshu with some anger, "Stop playing around! Stop wasting time!"

Then, the Fallen God turned to look at Ji Xia, raising his right hand menacingly, "So all that was just bluffing. You like playing hide-and-seek? You'd better turn back into a normal person right now—'The Oracle of Ceasefire'!"

That's right, ever since Ji Xia stood up, I've had a bad feeling.

Although he had yielded to Tian Shu and released the mental image to give Ji Xia some ability to resist, allowing Tian Shu to "play" a little more freely, this ominous premonition still lingered.

Let's not delay any longer, let's just kill her!

The evil power of the fallen gods activated the mind's image.

The moment Tianquan activated his mental image on Ji Xia, a weight was finally lifted from his heart.

No matter how fancy the opponent's abilities are, as long as she activates "Oracle of Cease," she will strip the opponent of all magical girl powers—mystic costumes, mental images, magic, and even the most basic ability to fly will be stripped away, and all physical attributes will become the same as those of an ordinary person.

Of course, this ability is not invincible. When facing other "Eternal Radiance" level magical girls, the effect of this mental image can only reduce their attributes slightly.

The magical girl in front of me is only at the "Blooming" level, or even just at the early stage of the "Blooming" level.

That's right, Tianquan had a mishap once—when the other party was at the "Blooming" level, they suddenly turned into the "Eternal Beauty" level, catching her off guard.

After that incident, Tianquan became more cautious when facing opponents at the "Blooming" level.

Therefore, she specially commissioned a costume maker to create a costume that could accurately determine the other party's cultivation level.

This formal attire resembles a pocket watch, with its hands precisely indicating the wearer's cultivation level.

Before she made her move, she tested it on Ji Xia—

In its early stages, the "Blooming" level is unlikely to evolve into the "Eternal Glory" level in a short period of time.

Putting aside the fact that the awakening process itself cannot be completed overnight, the transition from the "Blooming" level to the "Eternal Radiance" level is the most difficult part of the magical girl's awakening process.

Most magical girls reach their limit at the "Blooming" level. Even during the peak of magical girl popularity, there were no more than one hundred "Eternal Bloom" level magical girls in the entire world.

This isn't the plot of some shonen novel. Do you think you can force a story forward by relying on "friendship" or "bonds" to ignore the most basic logic?

The corrupted Tianquan felt victory was assured. But Ji Xia suddenly took a step forward and rushed towards Tianquan—

Hmph, has he already gone insane?

She's just an ordinary person now, stripped of all her magical girl abilities. What's the point of her rushing over?

The moment you activate your mental image, you've already won.

Tianquan didn't even bother using magic; she planned to simply use her fists to knock Ji Xia, who was charging at her, to the ground.

However, Ji Xia's speed suddenly increased dramatically, reaching Tian Quan in an instant at a speed completely unlike that of an "ordinary person"!

Eh? !

Wait a minute? Her physical abilities should be just average, right? How did she get in front of me in an instant?

Before the Fallen Heavenly Authority could react, Ji Xia rushed in front of her, opened her arms, and hugged her tightly—

"Finally caught you."

A maniacal smile appeared on Ji Xia's face.

"Take this—Spell: 'Crimson Rose of Love'!"

The next moment, countless magical blades gleaming with blood-red light burst forth from Ji Xia's body, like death roses blooming in an instant, mercilessly piercing through her and the evil fallen power in her arms!

This is a technique that results in mutual destruction. It detonates centered on the user, dealing a fatal blow to enemies at extremely close range that is completely equivalent to the damage inflicted on the user.

Ji Xia, who was already seriously injured, was on the verge of losing all her life force after unleashing this move.

The Fallen God, caught completely off guard, took the hit head-on and was also severely injured, losing his fighting ability for a short period of time.

"How...is this possible...?" The Fallen Angel stared in disbelief at Ji Xia, who was clinging to him tightly. "How...can you...cast... magic...?"

"Cough cough cough, who... knows... but... cough cough, in this way... you... won't be able to move, right..." Ji Xia's voice was intermittent, and she could hardly speak a complete sentence.

With his last ounce of strength, the evil-dominating Heavenly Authority pushed Ji Xia away. The two of them fell to the ground, panting.

"Oh dear, I never thought you, Tianquan, would also suffer an unexpected setback." Instead of helping, the evil Tian Shu gloated from the sidelines. "You, who claimed to be 'invincible below the 'Eternal Shao' level' and 'impossible to be challenged by someone of a higher level,' have actually met your match!"

"Stop...stop talking nonsense!" The Fallen God glared at her fiercely. "Hurry up and heal me!"

"Just heal yourself, your healing spells are much better than mine anyway."

"Who did this?!" Tianquan struggled to his feet, looking at Ji Xia lying on the ground not far away, barely alive. "This is really strange. Why didn't my mental manipulation restrain her just now?"

"They just opened the floodgates temporarily! You've been there before."

"Impossible! She's far from being 'Eternal Radiance'! Even a magical girl's power of will still have to be reasonable, right?" Tianquan took out his measuring pocket watch again and pointed it at Ji Xia on the ground.

The pointer slid towards the "Yongshao" mark, even reaching the peak of the later stages of "Yongshao"—

Hmm? Could it really be a temporary opening?

But that's impossible, isn't it? Even if it's Kaihua, it's at most the early stage of the "Yongshao" level, so why would the pointer indicate the late stage of the "Yongshao" level?

Just as the evil-fallen Heavenly Authority was filled with doubt, the hands of the pocket watch in his hand suddenly slid rapidly down to the "Blooming" level, returning to the level that Heavenly Authority had observed in the early summer.

What's going on? Can one's realm really fluctuate like this?!

Could there be something wrong with the formal attire?

The evil-fallen ruler stared at the pocket watch in his hand, utterly perplexed.

"What's going on?!"

Suddenly, a terrified scream came from behind.

The Fallen Heavenly Authority suddenly looked up and saw that Ji Xia, who should have been on the verge of death, had somehow stood up again, her hand gathering a deep red magical light. Before she could react, the light coalesced into a beam, instantly piercing through Heavenly Authority's body.

Tianquan was hit almost head-on, and she, already severely injured, lost consciousness in an instant.

In the final moments before consciousness faded into darkness, what came into the view of the Fallen God was Ji Xia, completely unharmed.

Yes, Ji Xia had no marks on her body.
