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

"Defects caused by problems in human genes also need to be corrected, otherwise, we will still face division and civil war after entering space."

"Change alone is meaningless; we must eradicate them completely!"

"...Thinking that far ahead?" Muirsey didn't argue any further. She knew that Emilia was more involved in political matters and her attitude was naturally more assertive.

"Hmm, after all, there might be a day when the witch can be completely defeated, so I've made some plans."

Let's talk about the future when it comes.

Muirsey and Emilia changed the subject again.

"I wonder what kind of powers the seventh witch possesses," Emilia said.

"Hmm, speaking of which, the Death Witch's power, [Death of Living Beings], seems somewhat similar to Miss Xia Die's power. It's a pity we don't know the name of Miss Xia Die's power yet."

"Both powers should be related to death, and I think Miss Xia Die's power is derived from the power of the previous generation's Death Witch and is her own unique power."

As Muirsey spoke, he fell into deep thought. Miss Xia Die's power and the Death Witch's power both involve death, and the Underworld is exactly where the souls of the living go. In that case, could the Underworld be studied through the Death Witch's power?

"Shushu's power, [Eternal Sword], is derived from the Ice Witch's power, [Stagnation Ice]. We should start from this point and allow more magical girls to master derived powers."

Emilia was also thinking about powers. The more magical girls mastered powers, the more confident they would be in defeating witches.

A moment of silence fell over the principal's office.

However, a short while later, Muirsay's communicator suddenly rang.

"Director! One of our fourth-term students has already mastered powers!"

Chapter 437 Combat Test

A plaza somewhere at St. Freya Magical Girl Academy

"Excuse me, Wei Hua, what did you just say your powers were?"

Alicia blinked her clear, azure eyes, looking somewhat bewildered at the girl in front of her who had long pink hair just like her.

The pink-haired girl's golden eyes blinked.

Mika Seizono is a fourth-term student at St. Freya Magical Girl Academy and a B-rank magical girl.

Just now, when Alicia came to talk to the students, she noticed the power reaction in Mika Seizono.

Then I saw with my own eyes the power of the Holy Garden Unflower emerge.

"And your halo and wings?" Alicia asked, somewhat puzzled. Could power bring about such changes?

A pair of wings appeared behind Mika Seien, and a pink halo, like a planetary orbit, slowly rotated above her head.

“Yes, the [Ring of Sanctity] is about doing what you want,” Mika Hijiri answered, tapping her cheek and tilting her head. “The halo and wings are exactly what I like!”

"..." Hearing Mika's answer, Alicia really wanted to ask what it meant.

What does it mean to do what you want? Are her halo and wings simply the result of power?

Seeing the somewhat confused expressions on the faces of the headmistress and the other magical girls, Mika also said with a troubled expression.

"Oh, I don't really know how to describe it, it's just that if I want to do it, I can do it."

Wei Hua truly didn't know how to describe the feeling of wielding power; it was something that language couldn't describe.

"Wei Hua is not wrong."

Suddenly a voice came, and the many magical girls watching, including Alicia, looked in surprise at the purple butterfly phantom that appeared out of thin air.

"Teacher Xia Die!" Mika and the group of magical girls called out happily.

The square was instantly filled with noise.

A purple figure adorned with many butterflies then appeared in the college square.

"Hello, students," Xia Die said with a slight smile.

"Teacher Xia Die!" With a beaming smile, Wei Hua suddenly lunged forward and bumped into Xia Die's arms.

The butterfly was so startled that it involuntarily took a step back.

She caught the happy-looking Wei Hua, somewhat surprised by Wei Hua's great strength.

"Come down first."

"Okay!"

After putting down Wei Hua, Xia Die then looked at the girls around her.

"Power is the embodiment of what you most desire to achieve."

Xia Die has said similar things many times during her lectures, but not many magical girls truly understand them.

The power cannot be described by human language. Simply put, it is the ability to make one's wishes come true. However, how to make one's wishes come true is something that magical girls need to figure out for themselves.

After all, each magical girl may acquire different powers.

"Mmm, I just want to do it!" Wei Hua nuzzled Xia Die and said happily.

"Should I just do it if I want to?" Alicia was still somewhat confused.

Muirsey and Emilia arrived at the square at that moment.

"Director! Vice Principal!" the magical girls greeted them again.

Seeing the power reaction on Wei Hua's body, Muirsey suddenly had an idea.

"Everyone, take your time to think it over. Wei Hua, would you like to take a test?"

Alicia and Emilia looked at Muirse in surprise, but they soon realized that it seemed to be a good idea.

In reality, only Du Shushu and Wei Hua have truly acquired the powers of a magical girl. While Muirsey and the others are powerful, their strength lies in their manipulation of magic; they haven't yet gained the powers that belong to them.

"Okay, okay!"

Wei Hua nodded happily, her eyes like crescent moons.

"Shushu, come back first. Your junior sister has awakened her powers. Come over and test her combat strength," Muerses said as he contacted Du Shushu, who was on vacation back in Shenzhou.

"it is good!"

Du Shushu, who was on vacation in China, immediately nodded happily in agreement. She quickly said goodbye to her family and rushed back to the car to be transported back to the academy.

Upon hearing Muirse's idea, the magical girls' eyes suddenly lit up. Yay! It's a battle between beautiful girls!

Before long, the magical girls arrived at the academy's training area. Upon learning that the two magical girls who had gained powers were preparing to spar and fight each other, most of the magical girls immediately rushed back to the academy in excitement.

Meanwhile, the magical girls who couldn't make it back immediately connected to the academy's exclusive online platform. Some magical girls were already carrying cameras and preparing to film and record, and even started a live stream.

Because Wei Hua's awakening of her powers was sudden, and Muirse's decision was also made on a whim, by the time the high-ranking officials of other countries received the news, the two magical girls who had awakened their powers were already fighting.

The magical girls watching the match were excitedly analyzing the two beautiful girls sparring on the training field.

Holding an ice sword as cold and sharp as snow, she resembled a peerless female sword immortal—this was Du Shushu.

A cheerful girl with pure white wings and a pink halo, who looks innocent and pure, stands opposite, holding a submachine gun.

"The Unpainted [Ring of Purity] doesn't seem to have anything special about it."

"No, no, no, Senior Du's [Eternal Sword] can immobilize a target. Look, she's tried several times to freeze Wei Hua, but she hasn't succeeded! This might be the effect of the [Ring of Holiness]!"

"Boom!" A deafening explosion resounded across the training ground, and a sonic boom cloud, visible to the naked eye, was generated from Wei Hua's delicate pink fist.

However, the sonic boom cloud at such close range had no effect on Mika; it merely blew gently at the hem of her white dress, as if a light breeze had been blowing.

The icy blue light that had been trying to immobilize Wei Hua shattered completely under her punch.

"Um, it seems like Wei Hua shattered the constant range with a single punch. Is that...is that normal?"

"...Perhaps powers can cancel each other out?"

"Maybe..."

The magical girls were discussing the battle on the training field. Mika's power was acting strangely, seemingly just enhancing her physical abilities.

How could mere physical strength possibly shatter the constant range of the [Eternal Sword]'s power?

Furthermore, although Mika appears incredibly pure and holy, her fighting style is simple and brutal – she just swings her fists and smashes things – the contrast is just too great.

"Senior Du seems to be unable to defeat Wei Hua. Is she going to lose?"

"Senior Du hasn't even used her full strength yet. If she were to stabilize her sword, the outcome would be unpredictable."

Several magical girls who supported Du Shushu countered that they had a good relationship with Du Shushu and sometimes offered her ideas on how to manipulate her powers, so they knew that Du Shushu had not yet used her full strength in the training field.

"However, Weihua might get hurt in that case. Senior Du's power is too destructive, second only to the power of the Sky Witch..."

"Huh? Senior Du seems to be getting serious?"

On the training field, Du Shushu discovered that no matter how much she tried to keep Weihua constant, the constant range of her power would be shattered by Weihua's circle. At first, she was a little confused as to why her power could not be kept constant by Weihua.

The effect of the Eternal Sword is extremely simple: it makes everything within a certain range constant. However, this effect does not work on Wei Hua.

However, Du Shushu soon discovered that it wasn't that her power couldn't stabilize Weihua, but rather that Weihua's power granted Weihua the ability to break the constant range.

Du Shushu then set a new limit for not spending money.

When Du Shushu saw that she had indeed kept Weihua stationary in place while she was holding the flower still, Weihua soon started to move and shattered the stationary area with a punch.

"So this is what your powers are like, huh?"

Du Shushu finally understood Wei Hua's power, and she looked at Wei Hua, who had once again shattered the constant range, with great surprise.

Wei Hua's power is truly omnipotent, without any weaknesses. She is able to shatter the constant range by using the countermeasures of her power.

However, it would be quite simple for Du Shushu to defeat Wei Hua. One way would be to simply exhaust Wei Hua with more magic power, or other methods would also work.

There was no need for that; their exchange was merely a friendly sparring session, and incidentally, it allowed Mika to become familiar with and understand her own powers.

Then, Du Shushu raised the ice sword in her hand, and a streak of icy blue light shone on the ice sword.

She decisively turned to stabilize the sword in her hand, a sword whose state was eternal.

A sword that cannot be damaged or disturbed in any way.

"Hey, what did Senior Du realize?"

The magical girls watching the battle all heard what Du Shushu said. Most of them were a little confused. They knew that Wei Hua had just mentioned the function of her power, but they didn't quite understand it.

"Oh dear, that's what I've always said!"

Wei Hua said with a smile.

"You'll have to be careful from now on."

Although Du Shushu did not use her full strength, she still used seven-tenths of her power.

There is no hierarchy of powers, only the degree to which they are used and the amount of magic power a magical girl possesses.

Du Shushu had already seen that as the battles with Wei Hua continued for longer and longer, Wei Hua's use of her powers became more and more thorough and skillful.

"Okay, don't worry, come on over, senior!"

At this moment, Wei Hua also pulled the bolt of the submachine gun in her hand, although it was just a habitual action and did not have any special effect.

"Bang bang bang bang!" In the next instant, Wei Hua raised her gun and fired at Du Shushu.

The bullets fired by Wei Hua's submachine gun resembled clusters of pink light, but they were fixed in front of Du Shushu before they even made contact with their target.

"This thing is useless to me."

"uh-huh"

Wei Hua didn't say anything in response to Du Shushu's words, she just smiled.

Du Shushu slashed at Wei Hua with her sword, and an ice-blue light blade made of magic burst forth and flew towards Wei Hua.

"This won't work for me either."

With a happy smile on her delicate and lovely face, Wei Hua raised her pink little fist and lightly punched the flying ice-blue light blade, shattering it into two pieces.

The remaining two light blades were defused by Du Shushu in time, otherwise they would have been stuck in the spectator stands. However, the magical girls in the audience were not afraid, but instead cheered excitedly.

Du Shushu and Wei Hua were playing a turn-based game, taking turns attacking. Before long, Du Shushu was surrounded by pink bullets fired by Wei Hua, while Wei Hua was surrounded by solid ice created by ice-blue light blades.

They weren't actually fighting at full strength. Real battles aren't so flashy and long; otherwise, the magical girls watching wouldn't be able to see it clearly.

"Hmm, that's about right."

Seeing that the data collection was almost complete, Muirsays broadcast the announcement directly.

Du Shushu, who remained expressionless, and Wei Hua, who was slightly tired, exchanged a smile after hearing the broadcast.
