Chapter 34: Striking the Deity
Elrose’s face showed a fierce expression as she contemplated whether to charge forward and break the evil god’s wand.
The evil god seemed to see what Elrose was thinking from her expression and quickly put away his treasured magic wand he had kept for years.
“Uh-huh, no more jokes.”
“Let’s continue. I’ve roughly introduced what a Magical Girl is, and finally, I need to tell you how a Magical Girl transforms.”
“Transform?” Elrose suddenly thought of something and asked, “Is it using that [Transform] skill?”
“That’s right.” The evil god said, “To activate that skill, you need to chant a specific spell and consume mana.”
“Consume mana?” Elrose paused for a moment and said, “Evil god, don’t joke with me; this body has no mana.”
“I know.” The evil god replied, “That’s why I prepared a mana potion for you. Just drink that potion and then boldly shout the spell.”
“Oh, I see.” Elrose nodded slightly, “So what’s the spell?”
“This.” The evil god waved his hand, and a brand new interface appeared in front of Elrose.
let your mighty power reappear in this world.
I am the embodiment of love and miracles.
unparalleled mana transforms into my sword and shield.
Elrose’s small face turned slightly red: “What is this utterly embarrassing line? How could I possibly say that out loud?”
“Embarrassing? I think it’s alright?” The evil god said with a calm expression.
“If that’s not embarrassing, then what is?” Elrose said, “You need to change this spell for me.”
“Huh? Such a cool line, and I came up with it with great difficulty, and you want it changed just like that?” the evil god said. “No way, I absolutely won’t help you change it.”
Elrose gritted her teeth: “I don’t care; I can’t say this spell, you should hurry up and change it for me.”
“No, I refuse.”
“Quickly change it for me.”
“I won’t.”
“Change it.”
“I won’t change it.”
…
In the void, Elrose and the evil god argued back and forth.
Finally, Elrose’s previously suppressed anger erupted, and she swung her fist and charged at the evil god.
“Ha, here we go again?” The evil god smirked, “In my world, hitting me? You think too highly of yourself.”
An invisible chain reappeared, locking Elrose tightly so she couldn’t move at all.
Elrose struggled desperately: “You’re playing dirty. If you have the guts, let me go and we’ll fight face to face.”
“Ah, hand-to-hand combat.” The evil god laughed, “After all, I am a deity. Fighting you, a mere mortal? That would be too embarrassing for me.”
“You, you, you.” Elrose gritted her teeth and said, “I want to flatten you.”
“Ah, give it up. You can’t possibly…”
The evil god’s words were abruptly cut off as he suddenly realized something had appeared behind Elrose.
The Shadow Demon King, Gideon.
He stood quietly behind Elrose like a spirit, and Elrose had no idea that Gideon was there.
“What… what is happening?” The evil god’s face showed an expression of disbelief.
In the next moment, Gideon gently embraced Elrose from behind.
Gorgeous attire, a dashing cloak, pitch-black hair, and fiery red eyes.
Elrose instantly completed her transformation, becoming a Magical Girl.
“Snap!”
The invisible chains instantly shattered, and Elrose shot towards the evil god like a black shooting star.
“Bang!”
Directly hitting the target, the evil god’s small body was sent flying.
“Eh?” Elrose stood there, momentarily stunned.
She didn’t know why, but suddenly felt a surge of power throughout her body, which in an instant sent the evil god flying.
Suddenly, Elrose realized her clothes seemed to have changed.
She looked at the outfit she was wearing, tugged at the cloak on her back, and then abruptly gazed at the illusion of a girl that the evil god had summoned earlier.
They were identical.
Elrose suddenly understood that inexplicably, she had transformed just now.
Feeling the overwhelming power within her, Elrose looked at the evil god lying on the ground and scoffed, “Evil god, is this all you’ve got?”
The evil god clutched his stomach and slowly got up from the ground, faintly chuckling, “A Magical Girl truly lives up to the name of a miracle. A mortal striking a deity; I can hardly remember the last time something like this happened.”
“What are you mumbling about?” Elrose rubbed her small fist and said, “Are you ready? I’m still not calm yet.”
“Is that so? But I don’t want to be treated as a punching bag,” the evil god chuckled, and several giant crimson serpents suddenly shot out from the void beneath him. “Let them have some fun with you first.”
The red serpents charged at Elrose like a tidal wave, and she hurriedly tried to muster her mana for defense.
However, she realized there wasn’t a shred of mana within her.
At that moment, Elrose suddenly came to her senses.
Oh right, this is the Spiritual World; in this world, elemental mana doesn’t exist.
Only the vast spiritual power.
The attacks from the red serpents were instantly upon her, jaws wide open, seeking to tear Elrose to pieces.
But in the next moment.
“Soul’s Dirge.”
A soft voice sang, and grayish-white soul energy surged from her body, instantly turning the red serpents into ashes.
The evil god’s eyes widened in disbelief.
How is this possible? I clearly sealed all her soul skills; why can she use the ultimate secret art of the Shadow Demons?
No, no, something must be wrong.
Wait, could it be?
The evil god quickly raised his head, just as he was about to say something, but saw Elrose charging right in front of him, swinging a slap filled with the fury of a girl.
“Smack!” The sound echoed.
Elrose stood in front of the evil god, coldly saying, “White-haired brat, show a little more respect to this lady from now on.”
The evil god touched his cheek, which felt hot.
He should have been angry, but he wasn’t.
Instead, a joyous feeling welled up from the depths of his heart, causing him to reveal a slight smile.
Seeing this, Elrose quickly took a step back, giving the evil god a peculiar look: “No way, you actually smile after being hit? Are you a masochist?”
“Haha, no, I just remembered something joyful.” The evil god cleared his throat, then slowly bowed to Elrose. “You’re right, my pactbearer; as a Contract Beast, my attitude has indeed been a bit arrogant. I apologize.”
“Hmph, that’s more like it.” Elrose crossed her arms and glanced sideways at the evil god. “So, evil god, about that… Huh? What happened to your body?”
Elrose was about to mention the transformation spell but suddenly noticed that the evil god’s body was rapidly becoming blurry.
The evil god looked at his increasingly transparent form and sighed with a smile, “Oh dear, has the time passed so quickly? Sorry, it seems we’ll have to continue the Magical Girl tutorial next time.”
“Hey, wait, I haven’t finished asking my questions yet.”
Elrose took a step forward, trying to grab the evil god, but ended up grasping at nothing.
The evil god smiled slightly: “Then, see you next time.”
A dazzling white light flashed, and the void space instantly disappeared.
Elrose lay in bed, suddenly opening her eyes wide.
She paused for a moment before hugging her head and shouting, “Ah, I’m so mad! Nothing was explained clearly, and he just ran off. How irresponsible can you be?”
“How did I end up with such a handsome (foolish) evil god?!”
