Transform into a magical girl after getting off work-Chapter 440 - 84 Intensification_2

Boom!

Then, only the roaring sound of the magic power impact remained.

...

...

As midnight neared, the Blue Moon rising from the mountain peak was strikingly visible, even from several miles away, and naturally did not escape the eyes of the people mid-mountain.

Though they did not know what exactly this Blue Moon was, it did not hinder Emerald Sparrow and the others from realizing the fact that the battle on the other side was heating up.

"That moon, does it have something to do with your companion?" Asou Haruka, amidst the confrontation, somewhat awkwardly tried to make conversation.

The original bar-like wonderland had already been wrecked in the chaotic battle but still maintained its existence, signifying that Asou Haruka’s rules were still in effect. The roof, now with a skylight, was unexpectedly casting some moonlight down, unexpectedly adding a touch of poetry to the scene.

"You’re asking about the moon? Yes, are you interested in knowing more about it?"

Standing atop the wreckage of broken tables and chairs, Hong Siyu replied with a chuckle while her hands unmercifully swung the blade: "But the story is a bit long, I’m afraid you won’t have the opportunity to hear it through."

"Don’t trouble yourself."

Asou Haruka, with Hong Si’s cover, dodged the opponent’s attack and knocked over one of the few intact tables nearby, shaking her glass and squinting her eyes: "I just think that a moon in the sky at this time is indeed quite beautiful, I’m not interested in listening to an old person ramble on with stories."

"Oh, quite the wordsmith."

Hong Siyu, catching some implication, nodded as if she understood: "Indeed, a fine evening complements a beautiful scene. One should focus on the battle at hand, not on telling old stories nobody wants to hear. Isn’t hanging a bright moon in this dark sky a symbol that the battle is approaching its end?"

"Approaching its end? Indeed."

Asou Haruka agreed: "After all, the wine in your cup is now only half full."

During their conversation, neither had set down their glasses. Compared with a short while ago, the amount of wine in the glasses had diminished somewhat. However, Hong Siyu’s consumption rate was clearly far greater than Asou Haruka’s.

Moreover, if the layers of wine in her glass previously were so densely packed as to be innumerable, her glass’s contents were now visibly stratifying, most likely reduced to only a few dozen layers at most.

This reduction in layers coincided with Emerald Sparrow’s earlier suggestion—that striking Hong Siyu would deplete the layers in her glass.

Since parting with Lin Xiaolu and the others, they had been entangled up to this moment. Although they had each sustained injuries during the course of battle, they had also truly returned fire, causing significant consumption for Hong Siyu.

With Emerald Sparrow’s silk threads controlling the battlefield, Hong Si’s Magic Technique carpet-bombing with firepower, and Asou Haruka disrupting and weakening Hong Siyu’s state. The coordination between the three was as practiced as if they had rehearsed it countless times, syncing fluidly and skillfully. The collective combat power of their combination was not simply additive by any means, but instead constituted a qualitative change.

This fact was keenly felt by Hong Siyu, who stood on the opposing side.

She had previously clashed with many Magical Girl squads, among which were some long-famous teams; these Magical Girls indeed had very close cooperation, and some had even developed advanced Magic Techniques that required the combined effort of multiple people. But none of those teams had ever given her the feeling she was experiencing now.

The trio from Fangting City’s squad had coordination that surpassed mere technique combinations, becoming a coupling of tactics and teamwork awareness. Your adventure continues at novelbuddy

If one attempted to attack Asou Haruka, they would be hindered by Hong Siyu’s magic technique firepower, and might even be led by the nose by Emerald Sparrow’s thread arrangements; trying to deal with Hong Siyu would result in interference from Asou Haruka up close, along with layers of traps set by Emerald Sparrow in the intervening spaces; tackling Emerald Sparrow would likewise be disrupted in the same manner by the other two.

Their offensive methods complemented each other, attacking in waves, and their defense was mutually supportive, covering each other—making one wonder if these three shared the same brain.

Even she had to admit, the rival was indeed the legendary squad of long-standing fame, and if not for only having three members, along with a subpar Cornflower, she probably would have already lost.

Even now, she was actually on the verge of defeat.

Emerald Sparrow’s guess had not been wrong; the Beast Heart Liberation, the ability of Hundred Forces Form Martial Might, was essentially "directly stacking one’s own momentum to the maximum state, instantly activating the ’overwhelming advantage’ that could lead to victory."

"Momentum" as one of the core abilities in martial arts naturally had multiple ingenious uses. Phrases like "using momentum to overpower" and "seizing the moment to act" explained that with sufficient momentum one could naturally gain more advantages in a duel.

Combined with her role as a Magical Girl, the ability became even more miraculous, practically a tangible force, boosting not only her Magic Power, speed, and strength but even directly affecting the opponent’s performance, hindering the enemy’s Flow of Magical Power and disrupting their action precision.

Originally, such techniques required a gradual build-up of one’s advantage, only entering this overpowering state after reaching a certain level; however, Beast Heart Liberation bypassed this accumulation process completely, placing "overwhelming advantage" at the cause rather than the effect, maximizing her combat power instantly upon transformation.

This transformation was akin to shifting from righteous martial arts techniques to demonic ones, yet in terms of practicality, it was significantly improved.

However, this exhaustion of power was not without flaws.

As the price for displaying the strongest form from the start, Yuān under this form would lose some momentum with each hit taken, until a critical point when she would completely lose her "overwhelming advantage" and fall out of the Beast Heart Liberation state.

And this process was irreversible; she could not regain "momentum" by inflicting more damage on her enemies. Once lost, it was impossible to recover.

Regarding this, Yuān had no complaints.

She believed that martial arts were just so; only the strength earned step by step, grounded in solidity and truly belonging to oneself, was authentic. Like her original technique, which was honed through every slight victory in battle to form her unbeatably strongest stance.

Beast Heart Liberation, as a method of preemptively exhausting one’s future potential to achieve the strongest stance, deserved defeat if it failed to conquer the enemy with its invincible form and repeatedly suffered losses in battle.

In fact, with the power Yuān possessed after Beast Heart Liberation, it would be almost impossible for an ordinary opponent to even touch her, let alone injure her. Even if they managed to hurt her a couple of times, the sense of despair from her seemingly unaffected exterior would prevent them from persevering until the side effects manifested.

In most cases, the current Beast Heart Liberation was certainly more useful than Yuān’s original technique.

But this time, she had finally met an opponent capable of breaking her Beast Heart Liberation.

They could withstand the difference in strength, hurting her through a tactic of mutual harm; they could see through her abilities, knowing their efforts were not in vain; they could maintain the closest coordination, never allowing a gap in their lineup’s combat abilities.

And this had finally given them a glimpse of hope to turn the tables against what had originally seemed an unwavering, "guaranteed" victory for Yuān.

In response to this, Yuān felt tension, felt pressure, but notably, felt no regret.

Rather, she was brimming with unparalleled excitement because she had exerted all her strength without any reservation and her fully-committed efforts were still being pushed into a corner by her opponents.
