Fully dressed Magical Girls naturally looked charming and graceful, but those whose clothes were disheveled and a chaotic aura often appeared even more alluring.
Yet under Tang Nai’s watchful gaze, Lando refused to reveal such an embarrassing posture.
Luo Linglan’s fists and feet were originally known for their steadiness, but after being infused with the effect of dissolving clothing, they became especially troublesome, making it difficult for Lando to dodge.
After several rounds, cuts had already appeared along her waist and neck.
The exposed skin still glowed with vibrant pink, but seeing her trembling calves, the situation seemed far more complicated than it appeared.
Even though this wasn’t the real Luo Linglan she was facing at the moment, Lando’s heart was still filled with tension—she had never managed to win against her in sparring, not even managing to touch the hem of her opponent’s clothing.
Adding to that was the pressure of fearing her clothes would be torn off, making it hard for Lando to focus.
Her mind kept flickering with distractions.
Most importantly, Tang Nai kept her camera tightly in hand, seemingly ready to strike at any moment, which made Lando feel extremely threatened.
Absolutely, absolutely no humiliating exposure in front of this witch!
But in the next moment, Luo Linglan seized on Lando’s momentary distraction and thrust a fist straight toward her face.
By the time Lando came back to her senses, a sharp gust of wind had already hit her cheeks.
The shadow suddenly enlarged in her vision.
Lando instinctively bent backward, the only choice she had to evade—
But the result was the arm burning with Dark Magic Power stopped just less than half an inch from her navel.
When Lando felt that damn chilly sensation, the fragile skirt had already been pulled apart on both sides, exposing her flat abdomen.
What worried Lando most was the precarious state of her upper body.
Ignoring the need to maintain posture, Lando rolled desperately to one side and knelt down.
Though she firmly shielded her chest with her arms, her inner panic was impossible to hide.
Fighting Luo Linglan’s onslaught while also minding her torn clothes had thrown her off balance.
She grew increasingly flustered as she failed to dodge properly.
Her skirt was now in tatters, barely resembling clothing—just a few ragged strips hanging on her body, only barely covering her shame when she gathered her arms.
What Lando didn’t realize was that the outfit Tang Nai had casually conjured looked like a delicate ornament but actually possessed the ability to resist Dark Magic Power—this was why Lando could still keep her sanity.
Had she been wearing her original clothes, she would have sensed the familiar, burning corrosion of corruption within moments.
Now, the power-imbued uniform, already slashed to shreds, could no longer bear more erosion.
In Lando’s eyes, Luo Linglan’s figure carried a heavy oppressive weight, advancing step by step just as before.
Her pupils began to tremble slightly, and her normally resolute heart involuntarily shattered with each step her opponent took.
In front of Luo Linglan, she was always so fragile and powerless.
“Little Lando, looks like you’re in bad shape. Need my help?”
Listening to Tang Nai’s words, Lando looked at her cautiously.
She didn’t trust someone who had been tormenting her for so long to easily solve her problems.
“But of course, everything comes at a price.”
Just as expected, but Lando had no time to hesitate.
The predicament she faced wouldn’t grant her a moment’s pause.
Luo Linglan’s fierce fists pressed in as Lando retreated step by step, closing in on her.
No, there’s no way to dodge.
Lando tightly shut her eyes, bracing for the incoming blow.
Yet the next moment, Tang Nai simply snapped her fingers, freezing Luo Linglan’s advancing form just a finger’s width away from Lando.
Lando’s body still trembled slightly from tension, her waist and abdomen muscles tense and twitching.
When the anticipated strike didn’t come, Lando slowly opened her eyes.
Tang Nai stepped forward lightly, inching closer, prompting Lando to cautiously retreat, trying to distance herself from that unsettling smile and the glinting DSLR camera in her hand.
“Don’t be nervous. If it weren’t for me, you’d already be defeated by this Dark Magic Power—you wouldn’t want to experience being enslaved by desire.”
Lando pouted, momentarily at a loss for words.
She truly couldn’t deal with this woman.
“Do you know what happens if you let a creature like this continue living inside you?”
Tang Nai continued smiling sweetly.
In truth, she could clearly see that this Dark Magic Power was nothing compared to the hidden dangers actually lurking inside Lando.
These were just stray fragments, but for Lando, who knew little about Magic Power, they were deadly enough.
Given time, this magic would corrupt her mind without her realizing it.
“I don’t want to know…”
“You’ll become everything you hate.”
At those words, Lando’s pupils slightly contracted.
She bit her lip and stopped interrupting.
“But I can help you deal with this thing. The condition is that you must become a Magical Girl, and—”
Tang Nai raised the camera in her hand, framing Lando in the lens.
“You have to cooperate and let me take a few good pictures. After all, this is the happy memory of our first meeting~”
Hearing Tang Nai’s words, Su Mu couldn’t help but recall some miserable memories.
So, other Magical Girls had also fallen victim to her?
Lando’s pale purple eyes flickered with conflicted emotions.
Her current state was truly embarrassing.
The only cover left on her body were strands of hair and some tattered cloth.
Her legs were so weak she could hardly stand, only able to kneel on the ground like a defeated Magical Girl waiting to be captured.
Becoming a Magical Girl wasn’t something she resisted, but Tang Nai’s presence had drastically lowered her impression of them.
She glanced at Su Mu—who was the Miti from her memories—with a hint of confusion.
At that time, she had fainted in the Dojo, and the first to sense the Dark Magic Power disturbance and come rushing over was Miti.
It was she who brought Lando to the Coffee Shop to take care of her and explained many things.
As for how Miti reacted so quickly in the dead of night… she had been staying up late playing video games.
But that wasn’t the point.
So it was understandable that Lando felt somewhat close to Miti and would ask for her help.
Naturally, Miti hoped she would become a Magical Girl and had given her an affirmative response then.
But now, Su Mu was playing the role of Miti inside the dream.
Su Mu thought for a moment, then quietly pulled out her Handheld Console from behind her and tried to communicate with Lando.
It was not difficult for Su Mu to invade the consciousness of an ordinary person like Lando, so she easily made her voice echo in Lando’s mind.
“Don’t rush to agree. I have another proposal.”
Looking at Tang Nai’s smug smile, Su Mu’s fists had long since clenched tight.
‘Today, in Lando’s dream, I will punish you properly, you damn witch!’
