Unable to withstand the persistence of ruby and sapphire, Akatsuki helplessly took the two magic wands in her hands and shouted toward the moon: "Love and hope, justice and fairness, Absolute Magical True Ancestor! Magical Girl, debut! In the name of the moon, I will punish you!"
The moon in the Mirror World seemed to feel Akatsuki's call, showering its moonlight upon her. Subsequently, a pure white dress covered her original crimson casual clothes, and ruby and sapphire fused into a single magic wand.
"Magical True Ancestor, Akatsuki Brunestud, representing all the love in the world, shall eliminate you! Please surrender, weirdo Assassin!"
After speaking, Akatsuki slammed the magic wand in her hand onto the ground, "What on earth did you make me say, hey! You bastard! I'm definitely going to kill you!"
"Hahahahahaha!!"
"Sister..."
From the magic wand came the sound of ruby's loud laughter and sapphire's helpless exasperation. Even the original creator of those lines, ruby, would find them incredibly embarrassing, but she hadn't expected Akatsuki to actually say them so seriously, even mimicking a young girl's cute movements.
"You jerk, next time I go to the Clock Tower, I'm definitely going to have that Jewel Owner guy remodel you into a toilet plunger!"
After a brief moment of daze, Assassin immediately reacted, a hint of disgust appearing in his eyes as he looked at Akatsuki. In his life, he hated people like this most—those who kept joking around in situations that should be serious.
The pitch-black greatsword aimed straight for Akatsuki's head, but Akatsuki, who was just joking around a second ago, caught Assassin's sword with one hand in the next.
"Assassin, a special attack against True Ancestors doesn't mean you can crush me in every aspect. Even in this space where the Poison of the True Ancestors exists, the one at a disadvantage is still not me!"
In the next second, cracks appeared on the blade of the pitch-black greatsword. With a crisp sound, Akatsuki crushed the Servant's weapon with her bare hands.
"How is this possible!"
Astonishment appeared on Assassin's cold face. "Clearly, not long ago, you couldn't move freely in the Poison of the True Ancestors. Why is it that after only a short time, you've become completely immune to its effects? This is impossible! The Poison of the True Ancestors is my life's work!"
Assassin stared blankly at the remaining hilt in his hand.
"It's simple, because your time of death has arrived!"
Akatsuki punched Assassin in the abdomen. The immense force made Assassin involuntarily let go of the hilt, clutching his stomach tightly with both hands.
"I've always remembered the grudge of being suppressed by you in the first volume. Don't think that just because we've reached the fourth volume, I will mercifully grant you death."
Akatsuki grabbed Assassin's head, a smile appearing on the corner of her mouth. "Alright, game time is over. Question: What is one thousand minus seven?"
On the other side, Luvia was leading Tohsaka Rin, Illya, and Miyu toward the location of the Assassin class card.
"Why did you give ruby and sapphire to that Akatsuki fellow! Recovering the class card is the mission the Grand Master gave us; how can we let an outsider get involved!"
Illya and Miyu lowered their heads in shame, while Tohsaka Rin, who possessed memories of two lifetimes, was much more mature. She only replied with one sentence that made Luvia shut her mouth.
"Hey, Luvia, can you beat that Akatsuki fellow?"
"Huh?"
Luvia wasn't stupid. She quickly understood the meaning behind Tohsaka Rin's words. After all, both the world of Magicians and the world of ordinary people follow the law of the jungle, where the weak are prey to the strong. It's just that the latter is bound by rules, while the former is more barbaric by comparison.
"Tohsaka Rin, have you become different from before?"
"Ara, you actually noticed. Impressive, impressive. Here's a head pat as a reward."
Saying so, Tohsaka Rin placed her hand on Luvia's head, stroking it as if she were petting a pet.
Luvia's hair instantly bristled as she angrily slapped away Tohsaka Rin's hand. "You vixen! How dare you treat me like a pet!"
"Ara, ara, you actually realized. Wait! What are you doing!"
Before Tohsaka Rin could finish, Luvia lunged at her, pinning her down.
"You violent gorilla!" "Huh? At this point, what are you still pretending to be a good girl for in front of me! When it comes to violence, we're both the same!"
Illya and Miyu watched Luvia and Tohsaka Rin's usual bickering with lines of exasperation on their faces.
"Could it be that those two actually have a very good relationship?"
"Maybe that's the case."
Meanwhile, on Akatsuki's side.
Assassin endured the intense pain and replied, "328."
Akatsuki's gaze was calm as she toyed with Assassin's skull mask. This mask was likely a skull mask of a certain generation of Hassan from the Assassin Order that Assassin had found somewhere during his lifetime. With this, he gained the aptitude for the Assassin class, and it was also because of this that he had the confidence to call himself the number one Assassin under the Old Man of the Mountain.
"That's not right!!!"
The magic wand in her hand let out a sharp cry, and ruby's voice, filled with despair, came through, "What's wrong with you as a Magical Girl!!! You look so cute, but you don't act like a Magical Girl at all. Why are you doing the same things as a final boss!!!"
"ruby, being a Magical Girl is actually a profession with very high risks. To avoid becoming cannon fodder in the industry, one can only use various means to strengthen oneself. It's unavoidable."
"NO!!! This isn't the Magical Girl I was looking forward to!!!"
Casually driving a steel needle into Assassin's finger, Akatsuki sighed. Dreams are always beautiful, but reality is always cruel. Therefore, people must tatakae, itsumo tatakae.
Only in this way can one obtain freedom.
"No! This is definitely not how a Magical Girl should be! Akatsuki, your perception is too skewed. A Magical Girl would never use such cruel methods to interrogate someone!"
Suddenly, ruby struggled violently, breaking out of the fused state with sapphire and plunging headfirst into the thick night.
"Is your sister's obsession with Magical Girls a bit too heavy?"
"Sigh..."
sapphire let out a deep sigh.
Akatsuki, on the other hand, used Marble Phantasm to manifest the works of a certain Warrior of Love. "Tomorrow, let's give your sister a bit of a shock regarding the Warrior of Love."
