It kind of looks like a little strawberry shortcake.
Soft and fluffy, its appearance a delicate blend of white and pink.
Hey, isn’t it time to give yourself a break?
But when Yaezakura looked up, she saw that bratty little loli’s face redder than an apple, and faint wisps of steam seemed to be rising from her head.
“Eeeeeeek!!!”
“You stupid little trash, you actually licked it!!!”
“Wasn’t it you who told me to lick it?!!”
How could such a tiny frame produce such a piercing sound?
It was like an ultrasonic attack, forcing Yaezakura to cover her ears with her hands.
Even the Steel-Spiked Monster lying next door was disturbed enough to jump up, only to change position and go back to sleep.
“I told you to lick it, so lick it! Why are you so obedient like a little dog?!!”
“Pervert! Lustful woman! Molesting an underage loli!! I’m calling the cops and getting you sentenced to death!!!”
She kicked Yaezakura on the forehead again, but her strength was too weak; no matter how long she stomped, the girl barely budged, only gaining some benefits from it.
And it seemed those benefits were more complicated than just that.
“…It’s actually blue and white striped, with little bear patterns too.”
“Perverted freak!!!”
The furious tentacles grabbed the unlucky magical girl, ready to punish her severely!
This move was actually learned by Vita from the former Little Yi.
Back then, after defeating enemies, Yijinmo would make them grovel humiliatingly, waving exquisite jailer keys in front of their eyes so they could only envy and suffer deep shame.
So cool and flashy, just like a queen.
Until today, the proud little tsundere girl met a clumsy magical girl and suffered a massive defeat!
“This is so infuriating, so infuriating!!!”
While Vita was stomping on the spot in anger, a loud, continuous engine roar approached from behind.
“What the hell?”
Turning around, they caught sight of the convoy’s headlights.
The company’s lackeys had caught up.
As expected, this brat had wasted too much time!
Vita gathered her tentacles again, but powerful fire rained down on her—machine gun turrets on the vehicles were no joke, and with five firing simultaneously, even her tentacles could barely hold out.
“Commander, this one is a Tentacle Monster, also lv.4, but her strength is very close to lv.5.”
“According to drone reconnaissance, about ten minutes ago, Team C, which was tasked with capturing the Steel-Spiked and Spring Breeze Monsters, was taken out by her.”
“Understood.”
“Unexpectedly, we gained an extra prize.”
Waving her hand to silence the others, the woman wearing sunglasses slowly stretched and then reached forward to grab a high-voltage baton.
After fingerprint recognition, the baton’s rear extended several closely arranged spikes.
Without expression, she pressed it into her palm.
“Stop the car. Let me deal with her.”
“But commander, the second phase of testing isn’t complete. Won’t this—”
“Enough talk. Do as I say.”
“…Yes!”
The machine gun turrets abruptly ceased fire.
The brief silence didn’t ease Vita’s tension; she knew the company’s nature too well.
Worse was definitely coming.
Sure enough, the lead command vehicle rolled forward and stopped right in front of the little loli.
The tall woman with sunglasses stepped down, holding the electric baton with one hand—no guns at all.
She gave off neither the magical girl’s aura nor that of a monster… at least to Vita, she appeared as an ordinary human.
“Tentacle Monster, right?”
“Hmph, so you’ve realized machine guns don’t work and came out of your tin can to beg for mercy? Pathetic trash, trash, trash~”
Though her words were still boldly mocking, the loli didn’t lower her guard.
Her tentacles, now fully healed, were coiled and ready behind her…
Finally, she seized the moment, and the pink tentacles shot at the woman at incredible speed!
But…
“!!!”
Vita’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Right before her, the woman nonchalantly caught one tentacle with a single hand, while raising the electric baton calmly against the others’ attack.
“Sizzle sizzle sizzle—!!”
The massive electric charge made the tentacles retract, forced into temporary dormancy, waiting for their next chance.
But the woman was not going to give Vita any more opportunities.
She yanked the captured tentacle hard backward.
Vita hastily severed it under the sudden strain—but that was merely a feint…
The mysterious woman had already closed in.
When?!
“Boom!!”
A fierce whip kick sent the soft little loli sprawling to the ground, then a foot pressed down on her leg, gradually applying more pressure.
“Ughhh!!!”
Vita’s appetite was huge, but her real strength was minimal; she was no match for this woman, whose power and speed were both extraordinary.
The tentacles struggled angrily to save their mistress but were beaten back by the electric baton.
If it were an ordinary weapon, they wouldn’t be afraid at all; even the Hundred-Thousand-Volt Electric Monster’s shocks didn’t faze them.
But the power hidden within this baton was so detested they couldn’t even get close…
With the crisp sound of cracking bones, Vita gritted her teeth, trying not to cry out.
A painful waterfall of tears blurred her vision, cold sweat poured down her forehead.
Her leg was broken.
What the hell is this woman… how is she so strong…!!
Several tentacles fought through their disgust and rushed forward desperately, only to be deftly dodged and struck by arcs of high voltage, instantly reduced to blackened charcoal!
The woman showed no mercy, coldly lifting her foot to pin down Vita’s other leg.
“Hey, what the hell are you doing?!”
“Even if she’s a monster, you can’t be this cruel to her!!”
That voice…?
Dust-covered Yaezakura climbed out of the pit.
The furious tentacles had thrown her about badly, nearly forcing her to forcibly end her transformation, but the tentacles suddenly stopped attacking.
Catching her breath and standing up, she saw this scene.
Although that little tsundere brat was annoying, this kind of abuse was unacceptable!
“A magical girl…?”
Why was she here?
Frowning slightly, the woman didn’t seem overly worried and instead made a hand signal toward a certain direction.
The magical girl’s sixth sense immediately screamed.
Yaezakura tried to dodge, but the earlier battle had severely depleted her mana, so she was just a half-step too slow.
“Bang!”
The girl collapsed as a tranquilizer dart pierced her back.
After confirming the loli at her feet had lost the ability to fight, the woman moved her foot away.
Soldiers poured out of the vehicles, easily knocking out the last awake Spring Breeze Monster, then bound them all into the cars.
“Commander.”
“How should we deal with this magical girl?”
“Bring her along. Those maniacs want a specimen anyway; consider it a bonus.”
“As you command.”
…………
After cleaning up the scene, the convoy resumed its journey.
But the moment the woman sat down and casually glanced up, she caught a fleeting flash of blue-purple electricity in the darkness.
“!!”
She immediately grabbed the driver’s wheel and veered sharply to one side.
Almost simultaneously—
A silver coin was hurled into the air, then accelerated to 1,030 meters per second… pulled by a magnetic field, it shot forward in a straight line.
Before it could be completely melted, it brushed past the woman’s command vehicle, the resulting wind blast flipping the entire car onto its side!
Then the coin shattered through the rear vehicle’s front window and cabin, piercing through the whole body.
“Boom!!”
A blinding fireball erupted from the darkness.
But a second before the explosion, the rear vehicle was completely dismantled by a mysterious magnetic force, and its occupants were forcibly impaled, upside-down, into the fields on both sides of the road.
Dark clouds gathered high above.
A bolt of lightning tore through the silent world.
In its light, the silhouette of a black-haired figure appeared.
“Leave, or die.”
Though her voice was soft, it carried a godlike pressure, crystal clear in everyone’s ears.
Her crimson blood-red eyes fixed on the overturned command vehicle… or more precisely, on the “commander” inside.
“Electric Monster… no, you should be called the Electric Princess…”
Yet this feeling of being treated like an insignificant ant didn’t frighten her.
Instead, a flush of excitement spread across the woman’s face.
“You’re really not dead! Hahaha!! Hahaha!!!”
A shadow streaked overhead—that was the convoy’s drone, but it had been captured and was now rushing toward the command vehicle at high speed.
