Collapse, how did I become the Devil King of Destruction while playing a game?

"Really? I understand."

Muirsey sensed that Xia Die was holding back in her words. The power of the Underworld Sea and the power of Imaginary Numbers were incompatible? Then how could Xia Die use the power of Imaginary Numbers to expand this domain? Furthermore, this domain didn't seem like a simple gateway to the Underworld Sea. It was too quiet here, a deathly quiet. Was this Miss Xia Die's power?

"How much longer will it take Miss Xiadie to guide the souls of the dead here? Is there any way to guide more souls?"

Muirsay's words made Xia Die's eyebrows twitch slightly, but she didn't speak immediately.

This puzzled Muirsey. She quickly considered what was wrong with her earlier statement. She genuinely just wanted to get more souls into the Underworld as soon as possible to find peace.

The time for extraditing the dead is actually very short. The millions of souls in Singapore are piled up together and enter the underworld very quickly. Before long, all the dead souls here will be extradited into the underworld.

So, is there a problem with the following part?

Why doesn't Miss Xia Die guide more souls, that is, gather more souls into the Underworld Sea? She should have that ability, unless there are other problems that prevented her from gathering more souls.

A wandering soul? A vengeful spirit?

The soul of a human after death is called a wandering spirit, while a vengeful spirit is the remnant of the human soul.

"If there are too many dead souls, they will turn into vengeful spirits?" Muirsey asked directly and bluntly.

Xia Die no longer wanted to answer, she just glanced indifferently at Muirsay, who had too many questions and was overly curious.

Muirsey also understood that knowing this much was already the limit.

Muirsey learned a lot from her conversation with the butterfly, though it also introduced her to more mysteries.

However, for Muirse at this moment, the most important thing was not to investigate the matter of the Underworld Sea, but to enhance the power of the magical girls as quickly as possible.

"Miss Xia Die, could you allow us to observe the next time you guide the souls of the dead? We will try our best to make some arrangements, but of course, this will not affect Miss Xia Die's duties."

"..."

Xia Die kept her mouth shut and didn't speak, but Muirsey smiled slightly, her eyes like a pair of crescent moons.

No answer is the best answer.

After all the souls of the dead in Singapore entered the Underworld, Xia Die also entered the Underworld.

Muels watched as the area around her, filled with the Butterfly's domain, gradually dissipated, returning to its original state. The 9th Magical Girl Squad, who remained outside, also reported that the purple light barrier they had seen had disappeared.

"Notify all magical girls of rank B and above in the academy to prepare for a long-term special training camp outside the academy!"

Muirsay contacted the intelligence officer at the Lighthouse base.

"Yes, sir!"

Muirsay sighed softly. Miss Xia Die... or rather, the senior of the magical girls, how exactly did she enter the Underworld Sea and become a ferryman? And what kind of place is the Underworld Sea?

Judging from Senior Xia Die's situation, the Pink Fairy Sister probably already thought she had disappeared in the Underworld Sea.

What exactly were the magical girl predecessors capable of? If they sealed all the witches on the moon, why were they destroyed, leaving only Pink Fairy Sister and Haruyo-senpai?

However, Muirsay doesn't have time to think about those issues yet.

"Alice..." Muirsey thought worriedly about Alice. Could she get out of this shadow and cheer up again?

The next day

While at St. Freya Magical Girl Academy, Muels received new information: the aerial patrol teams urgently established by the Fire Moth in various cities with huge death tolls had discovered the figure of the Butterfly in Jakarta.

The super tsunami triggered by the Ice Witch caused the entire Southeast Asia region, including the Australian coast, to be impacted. The population in the Indochina Peninsula was relatively okay as they could flee inland, but the people on the Southeast Asian archipelago could only flee into the rainforests of the islands or wait to die on the spot, as ships and planes could not transport many people at all.

When the tsunami receded, only desolation remained. Southeast Asia also suffered the highest death toll in the world, with more than 300 million people swallowed by the tsunami and several countries effectively defunct.

Java, where Jakarta is located, is the most populous and densely populated island in the world, and about half of the deaths occur there.

In other words, there are more than 1 million dead souls on Java Island.

Muirseth led the 1st Magical Girl Squad on a private jet to the skies above Java.

“These souls…” As soon as she arrived in Muirseth, she saw countless souls on Java Island, all heading towards a certain place, which made her a little worried.

I wonder if the gathering of so many dead souls will lead to the birth of vengeful spirits, and if there are too many of those vengeful spirits, will there be any danger?

Muirsey immediately sent her private jet to Jakarta, but before she even reached the ruins of the city, she saw a gigantic purple domain enveloping the entire city.

“Director, this area was opened after your arrival,” Muirsays then received a report from the Jakarta air patrol team.

"Well, I see"

Muirsey was extremely curious about the giant domain formed by the Butterfly's manipulation of magic. How was it created? How did it work? What special abilities did it possess? Was it merely an entrance to the Underworld Sea?

"Let's go in..."

"Mmm!"

Just as Muirsey was about to enter the domain of the Butterfly, she suddenly noticed a teleportation screen appearing in the private jet. Alicia, who had removed her teleportation suit, looked at Muirsey with a very reluctant expression.

"I'll go in with you."

“Xia…”

Muirse walked up to Alicia and gently stroked her face. Her once delicate face, full of enthusiasm and laughter, had become haggard and sorrowful after one blow after another. When she looked up, her beautiful eyes were filled with a heavy, deep, and inescapable melancholy.

"I'm fine, let's go!" Alicia's expression improved slightly, and she said with a gentle smile.

But to Muirse, it seemed more like she was putting on a brave face; Alicia's smile only retained a few remnants of its former self.

The threat that witches pose to human civilization is like the Sword of Damocles hanging over our heads at all times, ready to fall at any moment.

Witches have caused immense damage to human civilization.

And what powers will the witches of the future possess?

"Okay, let's go in."

Muirse gently hugged Alicia, giving her a warm embrace.

"I'm here for you, I'm here for you, and there are so many other people behind you!"

"Ok!"

As Alicia felt the warmth of the moment, her heart gradually calmed down.

Muirsay also made up his mind at this point.

'We must accelerate the Deus Ex deity program.'

Chapter 423 One's Own Power

Before the butterfly traveled from the Underworld to Jakarta

"Mother...Mom"

As soon as Xia Die connected with Seele's mother, before she could even finish speaking, she saw Seele's sea-blue eyes blink, which made Xia Die change her address to a more intimate one.

She then told Seele's mother about what happened when she came to Earth to begin her work as an extradition envoy.

For Muirsey and the others, Xia Die's choice was to help them without affecting her own duties.

Xia Die cannot tolerate anyone toying with one's soul at will.

just

"Go do what you think you can do. You can come to me with any questions or problems." Seele's smile was gentle, and she did not interfere with Xia Die's choice.

Seele did not tell Xia Die about Alicia, and therefore Xia Die was completely unaware of Alicia's situation.

Xia Die was completely unaware of Seele and the others' plans.

However, even before seeing Alicia, Xia Die had already had doubts in her heart.

Why does that pink-haired girl named Alicia have a similar aura of power to Seele's mother and other aunts? And it's pink too.

Xia Die herself also possesses the power of "Silent Death" bestowed upon her by Seele's mother, but she knows that this power is derived from Seele's mother's power and is essentially contained within Seele's mother's power.

Alicia appears to possess the same powers as Seele's mother and aunts.

However, Alicia has no idea how to use that unknown power.

In addition, Alicia possesses another power that exists in an external object, but Alicia does not know how to use it. Muirse also possesses a power contained in an external object.

The sources of these two powers are Aunt Bronya and Aunt Sirin, respectively.

Looking at Xier's mother's gentle smile, Xia Die hesitated, unsure whether she should ask.

"Anything you want to ask, Little Butterfly, you can say it," Xi'er's figure appeared beside Xia Die, gently stroking Xia Die's smooth hair that was white fading to purple.

"..." Xia Die felt the warmth of Xi Er's hand and subconsciously rubbed against Xi Er's hand, quietly enjoying the warmth.

"Mommy Seele, I have nothing to ask."

Without further hesitation, Xia Die answered directly.

Although she vaguely sensed that Seele's mother and aunts seemed to have some plans that she was unaware of, Xia Die had no intention of investigating. For her, it was more important to listen to Seele's mother and fulfill the responsibilities assigned to her.

Seeing Xia Die's resolute expression, as if whatever her mother said or did was right, Xi'er couldn't help but chuckle a few times.

"Little Butterfly is so cute!"

Xier happily pinched Xia Die's pink cheek, which made Xia Die's face blush.

Xier flew forward and hugged Xia Die, speaking softly.

"Little Butterfly, if you have any questions or doubts, please tell me! Don't keep them to yourself, I'll tell you everything!"

"Yes! I believe in Mom!"

Afterwards, Xia Die chatted with Xi'er's mother for a while, but Xi'er did most of the talking about the things between her aunts. Xia Die just listened quietly as an audience member, since they were all elders and it was not appropriate to comment.

When she felt that it was about time, Xia Die bid farewell to hope Er.

"Mom, it's almost time, I should go."

"Okay, go ahead, and feel free to ask me any questions later."

When Xier's mother emphasized this sentence again, Xia Die was a little confused.

She thought to herself, "If that's the case, then we'll probably find out why later."

After entering the realm of the Butterfly, Alicia's expression became slightly unnatural, because she saw countless souls densely packed together, forming a magnificent 'ocean', moving towards the center of the realm and finally entering the entrance to the Nether Sea at the center.

However, she later made an unexpected discovery: a considerable number of souls were imprisoned in a certain place by a purple halo, and upon closer inspection, these souls were vengeful spirits, and these vengeful spirits were constantly devouring and growing stronger!

Upon discovering this fact, Alicia felt a surge of anger and disbelief. Why, why toy with human souls like this?! Even if they were just remnants of vengeful spirits?

Alicia's clear, azure eyes, as blue as the sky, gazed towards the center of the domain, where they met those purple pupils.

The purple pupils looked purer and more serene, while the deep blue eyes were tinged with gray.

Muirse, who was observing the situation within the domain, did not immediately notice Alicia's reaction.

The vengeful spirits in the realm were evenly distributed in various places. Although the vengeful spirits were devouring each other and growing stronger, Muirsey could see that the vengeful spirits that eventually grew stronger resembled training dolls in a specially made training ground.

Although it is quite dangerous, it is indeed an excellent training doll that can be used to give special training to B-class magical girls.

It seems that vengeful spirits can be put to good use in this way.

Just as Muirsey was about to properly thank Senior Xia Die, she saw Alicia with a slightly angry expression fly towards Xia Die, who was standing quietly in place.

"Miss Xia Die..."

Before Alicia, who was looking displeased, could speak, Muirse almost pounced on her like a koala, hugging her tightly and covering her mouth.

However, Muels felt that he was still too late. Although Senior Xia Die's expression did not change because of Alicia's attitude, she just glanced at Muels and Alicia indifferently, and then turned and walked towards the entrance of the Underworld Sea.

"..." Muirse looked at Alicia with a deep gaze.

"What on earth is going on?!" Alicia sensed that something was wrong. Why was Muirse reacting like this?

Aren't the existence and circumstances of those vengeful spirits toying with human souls?

"Too many dead souls will inevitably lead to the birth of vengeful spirits; this is unavoidable."

Muirsey began slowly.

It was only then that she realized Alicia hadn't read the record of her conversation with Senior Xia Die at all, even though almost every magical girl had read it when it was sent back. Although Muirse could understand that Alicia was mentally devastated after learning that she had personally killed tens of millions of humans, and therefore couldn't properly read the record afterward, she rushed to Muirse's side the next day.

Alicia asked cautiously, "This doesn't seem to be what I expected."

"Then?"

"We'll help Senior Xia Die deal with these vengeful spirits, and she'll help train us in return."

"..."

"That's why I gathered the B-rank magical girls for special training outside."
