Living with a magical girl, but a weirdo cadre

　Countless strange beings roared and launched an attack on Yaochuan Guang and Hong. Yaochuan Guang naturally formed a defense, protecting the surrounding family members and Teacher Hong.

　However, this is clearly unnecessary.

　"Ding--"

　The attacks from the monsters merely created ripples in the air before being blocked by the suddenly appearing crimson crystals.

　They would repeatedly appear to block attacks, and then disappear again.

　They appear and disappear at extremely fast speeds. To ordinary people, there is no such thing as "Crimson Crystals." They only know that countless spells and attacks explode out of thin air.

　The crystals deflected physical attacks in mid-air, and deflected flames or anything else... Countless explosions and sparks flew through the air.

　"Ding ding ding... ding ding ding—"

　"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

　"..." Amidst the cacophony, Hong simply put her hands in her pockets and watched as countless attacks exploded before her.

　He just stood there and did nothing else.

　She even seemed somewhat detached.

　At this moment, the only word that Yaochuan Guang could think of was "invincible," it was simply invincible.

　"Absolute defense?"

　Yao Chuanguang couldn't help but ask this question as he looked at the family members who had completely broken free from the spider silk bindings under the isolation of the Crimson Array.

　"It's defensive, but not absolutely... However, it's clearly more than enough to block an attack of this magnitude."

　As she spoke, Hong patiently began to explain her technique to Yaochuan Guang: "This move is called [Crimson Array - Infinite Activation], a technique that can create an area similar to a 'domain'."

　"With my continuous casting of spells and the infusion of magic, the range and energy level of the Crimson Array will continue to expand."

　"This is also a prerequisite for releasing my series of spells called 'Crimson Activation Spells'... These spells can only be effective within the range of the Crimson Array."

　As she spoke, Hong conjured a small crimson circle in her hand and smiled. "The crimson circles for activating I and II have no special significance. They are merely the medium for the 'Crimson Activation Incantation.'"

　"But after activating III, these little things will appear to help me block attacks... Activating IV and V will bring new power."

　"As long as I have enough magic, I can fill it up indefinitely until it covers the entire world!"

　"..." Yaochuan Guang couldn't help but open her mouth, she was amazed by Hong's power: "Wow, Teacher Hong... is so amazing."

　Hong accepted Yaochuan Guang's praise with a smile.

　Meanwhile, Cong Yu, hiding inside the Jormungandr train and looking out the window, was just smiling and didn't say anything.

　He even said he could cover the entire world with enough magic...

　Enough magic

　With enough magic power, he can fool those magical girls who are inexperienced in the ways of the world and don't have a deep understanding of the principles of magic.

　If there's a prerequisite of "enough magic power," then why not just say we'll blow up the Earth with magic bullets!

　However, this was a rare moment of glory for Hong, so Cong Yu had no intention of exposing her to anyone, including the readers...

　What? You readers already know?

　That's fine.

　"..."

　"Damn it! Who are you?"

　As the spider-like monster roared, it suddenly realized the flaw in Red's spell: "Wait, your ability... can only block spells, right?"

　With that shout, the spider monster lunged towards the red figure: "Die! Behold my webs!"

　"..."

　"You're surprisingly smart, but unfortunately you only guessed half right."

　As she said this, Red gently waved her hand, and countless scarlet crystals appeared in the air, trapping the spider monster's limbs, torso, and neck.

　It was firmly controlled in mid-air.

　"Because 'automatic' interception can only intercept spells..."

　As she said this, Red took a deep breath and raised her hands to the monsters who were already tired of fighting and the Naga monsters who were already considering retreating.

　"And I'll say it again... I'm just a former magical girl who's passing by, remember that!"

　As this was announced, terrifying and dangerous magical energy rapidly gathered at Red's feet, spreading outwards through every part of the spell with ripples in the space.

　"Crimson Activation Technique - Nova!"

　In that instant, an extremely terrifying repulsive force appeared from around Hong and the others, and then spread out rapidly.

　Hit all the weirdos.

　The moment it struck them, the terrifying repulsive force blasted their flesh and blood away first, and then the bones left in place were immediately destroyed.

　Finely minced meat mixed with bone fragments was suddenly pushed aside, hitting the hotel wall and turning into puddles of meat paste.

　Because the spread of the red substance was controlled, this floor of the Fengdu Hotel was not cut in half and collapsed.

　Otherwise, it feels like this place will become another hellish joke after the Twin Towers... even though Cong Yu was prepared to prevent the explosion from spreading.

　Fortunately, Red is currently riding a strong wave of success, and his strategy is very clear, so he is controlling his power... If he were to fall behind, he would definitely panic.

　"So...so awesome!"

　Yaochuan Guang couldn't help but say this.

　"Heh heh, want to learn? I'll teach you—"

　Hong responded with a smile, looking quite pleased.

　"..." Upon hearing Hong's words, Yaochuan Guang closed his eyes briefly, then suddenly opened them, his golden eyes flashing...

　Then, shimmering magic coalesced beneath her feet.

　"Hehe, [Shining Array - Infinite Activation - Activation I]!"

　"..." Hong: "Huh?!"

　Cong Yu: "Huh???????!"

　Chapter 262 The Strange Arrogance Increased

　When Hikaru Yokawa unleashed the pirated "Crimson Array," Kurenai's feelings were complicated... although this type of spell was indeed not exclusive to Kurenai.

　Moreover, Kurenai can indeed teach Hikaru Yokawa.

　She taught him, while Yaochuan Guang learned it by watching... These are completely different concepts.

　How exactly did I learn that?!

　Hongxiawuhong didn't quite understand.

　The principle behind 【Crimson Array - Infinite Activation】 is indeed not complicated.

　It involves constructing magical energy into specific circuits, forming "magic runes" similar to those in traditional "magic arrays," but with all the differences (self-magic runes).

　Transform a real-world area into your own home ground.

　However, to learn it, one must not only have a good grasp of magic, but also be suitable for the spell.

　Yaochuan Guang's fighting style can be tentatively classified as beam-based...

　It has absolutely nothing to do with magic arrays!

　Could she actually be a hidden genius of magic array techniques?!

　Or does she just learn any spell she sees? Is she actually a copy of the magical girl—Hikaru Hatake?!

　however……

　No.

　"..."

　"Hahaha, I've learned strength!"

　Yaochuan Guang stood proudly with his hands on his hips, while Hong stared silently at the golden magic patterns on the ground... They looked very familiar.

　No matter how you look at it, it's exactly the same as my Crimson Array.

　But should they be the same?

　This shouldn't be the case.

　Since the Crimson Array is an enhanced red, if it were an array constructed by Yaochuan Guang himself, it should contain Yaochuan Guang's own "Self-Demon Runes," not the red runes of Nijishita-ya.

　In other words, Yaochuan Guang merely copied the "Shining Array" without any real understanding.

　With this in mind, Red silently deactivated her Crimson Array.

　Then a judgment was made...

　“You know what? I can use this so-called ‘Shining Array’ to cast spells… In a way, you’re really a genius.”

　Hong reminded him like this, and then, seeing Yaochuan Guang's shocked expression, she casually explained, "This is not a standard technique, and it is meaningless to copy it exactly as it is... but it is still remarkable that you can remember it all."

　Yaochuan Guang: Ah, this.

　Feeling somewhat embarrassed, Yaochuan Guang silently dispelled the array beneath her feet... This was the first time she had ever heard of the concept of "standard spells".

　Moreover, she didn't actually remember it; she just copied it by referring to the magic patterns on the floor before.

　It's like copying.

　Moreover, what Hong didn't know was that Yaochuan Guang didn't even use any special methods to outline the magic array or magic patterns... he simply piled them up with magic power.

　The main selling point is that the magic power is great and you can waste it without worry.

　Then, Yaochuan Guang looked at the family members who were vomiting from the monster's flesh and blood plastered on the walls, and she raised her arm—

　"Everyone, don't worry, the danger has been eliminated... Please evacuate in an orderly manner! Losses and casualties will be assessed by professionals!"

　Yaochuan Guang shouted with practiced ease, directing the victims to leave the elevator in an orderly manner: "I will look for any strange people who might be hiding. Magical Girl Shining☆chan needs to ensure her safety afterwards, so please don't worry!"

　It must be said that Hikari Yokawa is, after all, a fully-fledged magical girl, although her professionalism is not usually apparent.

　But she's actually more reliable than she seems.

　To put it professionally, it's professional.

　Under Yaochuan Guang's command, the family members who had vomited from the bloody scene began to evacuate in an orderly manner.

　While watching the evacuating crowd, Yaochuan Guang began searching for any strange people who might be hiding on this floor.

　It spreads magic over a wide area to locate enemies.

　However, it was clear that her efforts were unnecessary... the strange people had just gathered around and launched an attack.

　I don't know why they rushed over to get hit by AOE attacks.

　This might be the order from the lowly minions.

　Thinking this, Hikaru Yaochuan withdrew the magic he had used for searching, looked at the "[Miscellaneous Monster-chan (Seriously)]" on the wall, and turned to look at Red, who was searching for something.

　Yaochuan Guang's emotions are very complicated right now, but no matter what...

　Even from a purely polite standpoint, since she received help, she should express her gratitude... This is a basic principle of being a decent human being.

　"Teacher Hong, thank you for saving me."

　Hong didn't seem to care about Yaochuan Guang's words: "Oh, you don't need to thank me, I was just doing my duty."

　Responsibilities? What responsibilities?

　Amidst Yaochuan Guang's puzzled expression...

　"bump!!!"

　One of the windows shattered instantly.

　The blue figure and the small green figure crashed through the glass, rushed into the lobby, and flew into the air.

　"Senior Hong... it really was you."

　Lan Tianzhu spoke in a low voice. She had already guessed what was going on when she saw the familiar magic circle in the distance.

　It seems the enemy this time is Red.
