The pitch-black blade was raised high, tearing through the darkness, and swung towards Mary.

But the sword failed to hit the target. While Xia Li was moving, the golden pupil had already caught the sword's track. Almost at the same time, Mary's body began to move involuntarily. She turned her whole body to the left and took an arc, and naturally took a step forward with her left foot, dodging Xia Li's attack.

"Charlie! Stop it!!"

Mary's wailing didn't seem to be able to stop Xia Li, she clenched the black sword again and stabbed forward. At this moment, Mary's right hand also reached into nothingness, and then, she felt a burning sensation coming from her fingers. At the same time, a pure white sharp blade that was almost facing Xia Li emerged from the void and was held in Mary's hand.

"This is……………?"

Looking at the pure white sharp blade in her hand that looked like a new sprout, Mary was also taken aback, but soon, she noticed the ring on her right finger—it was the evil tool that Duanmuhuai had given her, and Right now, this ring is exuding dazzling brilliance.

"Clang clang clang!!!"

The black and white swords clashed and collided, but no one was able to get a gap.

"Please, Charlie! Throw away that sword and don't come near me!"

Although Mary was screaming and resisting, Golden Eyes seemed to have completely controlled her body at this moment. Under the influence of Golden Eyes, Mary dodged Xia Li's attacks again and again, and at the same time instinctively swung her sword to fight back. But this is not what she expects to see, she doesn't want to use this sword to pierce her friend, she just hopes to take Xia Li out of here!

"Charlie——!"

However, Mary's entreaties had no effect, and Xia Li's voice also became sharper at this moment.

"Don't point the sword at me!"

Xia Li's movements began to accelerate, and she launched another attack at a speed that ordinary people could not see clearly. However, all of this did not escape the capture of Jin Tong, the two swords intersected and collided, and in the trajectory of this collision, nameless laughter also followed.

"Hahahahahaha! Sword against sword, man against man. How funny, how ridiculous."

At the apex of the supreme darkness, a man wearing a French court clown costume and a mask was standing there. He raised his hands, watching the struggle of the girls below with great interest.

"In the end, darkness is about to fall, and the dark Charnos will devour the world! In this great drama composed of girls, let's end!"

However, at this moment, suddenly, a cold, deep voice sounded.

"To be honest, it's a bit vulgar to play with a little girl's feelings for an outsider."

As soon as the words fell, the next moment, a cold, sharp cane suddenly appeared from behind the court jester, hooking it towards the jester's neck. And the clown turned around, turned into a breeze and disappeared into the dark shadows, and then reappeared. Then on the other side, Duanmu Huai walked out with a cane in his hand, and stared at the clown in front of him with cold and indifferent eyes.

"It's a mere evil god, and it's fine to lure those idiots, scholars, lunatics, warlocks, and neurotic artists. You said that you have to toss a teenage girl, and the pattern is a bit small."

Duanmu Huai fiddled with the cane in his hand, looked at the clown again, the latter just put on an exaggerated pose under his gaze.

"The girl twisted the darkness, came to the gate of Tartar, and concluded a contract with me. The girl made a choice, and that's enough."

"Well, it makes sense, but it's none of my business."

Duanmuhuai clenched his cane tightly and hit the ground heavily again. Accompanied by his movements, the whole space seemed to shake at this moment.

"Listen up, miscellaneous, the Tribunal doesn't accept this. Rules? Order? Deals? Sorry, it doesn't matter what you say, but what we say. Lurking futures like you who don't have the ability to fully autonomous criminal responsibility The behavior of an adult girl... I'm sorry, but the Tribunal considers your deal invalid!"

Looking at the clown in front of him, Duanmuhuai looked disgusted. To be honest, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't think such evil deeds of deceiving children were very important. For a girl in Xia Li's age group, it's not normal for her to have a little bit of secondary school and a little more fantasy. Didn't I hold a thick wooden stick back then and shout "the key full of dark power..." or something?

Then there are two more lines like "The world is about to end, but I will live forever".

If you insist on using this to take advantage of loopholes, then you are a really disgusting person, and you obviously feel that you can't beat it.

This is the same as if you have to conduct a survey of middle school teenagers all over the world, and ask them if they would like to see the end of the world, and then 90% of them would like to see the end of the world, and happily take this as evidence that human beings want to see the end of the world. Suicide—isn't that bullshit?

"Oh? Is that so? That surprises me, so what are you going to do?"

"you still need to ask?"

Facing the clown's question, Duanmu Huai chuckled.

"You'll know soon enough, go to hell, heretic!"

The next moment, he clenched his cane tightly and blasted towards the clown.

The battle is still going on.

"Bang bang bang bang!!!"

Facing Mary, Xia Li pressed every step of the way, without any chance for her to breathe. And although Mary relied on her golden pupils to block Xia Li's swift attack, which she could hardly look directly at, she couldn't find a chance to change the situation.

"Charlie! Listen to me...Charlie...!"

Several times, Mary wanted to open her mouth and remind Charlie to go back to their beautiful daily life together. And Axie is waiting for them, and everyone will go to stay at Mary's house together, have dinner, take a bath together, and chat. But every time she just opened her mouth, Xia Li immediately stopped Mary's words with a stormy attack, not giving her a chance to speak at all.

"Don't hinder me, my dear Mary Clarissa! Why? The two of us are together... Obviously we won't be afraid, weep, and sad! As long as we're together... ...Mary!"

"clang-----!!!!"

The blades intersected again, and then retreated, the blades facing each other trembling violently.

"No, Xia Li, as I said, it won't work if there are only two of you."

Mary stared at Charlie and spoke.

"Didn't I make an appointment with you? Me, you, and Axie, the three of us together..."

However, Mary's pleas did not make Charlie drop her arms.

"...I have given up, Mary, and everything but you. So, you too... give up!"

"No, I won't give up, I won't give up on anyone! You too, Axie too, everyone too, I also relied on so many people when I came here...and Mr. Duanmu..."

"…………………gentlemen?"

Hearing this name, Xia Li's eyes moved slightly.

"Mary, who is that?"

"Why?"

For some reason, at this moment, Mary suddenly felt a different sense of oppression from Xia Li, as if some kind of demon was waking up.

"Are you ... being entangled by a man I don't know in a place I don't know? Isn't it Mr. Howard?"

"No, that... Charlie???"

Looking at Xia Li who lowered her head and muttered to herself, Mary panicked for a moment, but at the same time, Xia Li raised her head again and looked at Mary.

"Sure enough, you should stay with me, Mary, the two of us will stay here forever......!!"

"Hey hey?!!!!!!"

However, before Mary came back to her senses, Xia Li launched an attack again, and unlike before, it was as violent as a storm!

Facing Xia Li's attack, Mary blocked it while trying to explain.

"Xia Li, Xia Li, wait a minute, it's not like that. Mr. Duanmu is a very good person!"

"Clang clang clang!"

"He has been helping me and you. It is thanks to him that I came here. Also, although Mr. Duanmu looks fierce, he is actually a very gentle person..."

"Clang clang clang clang!!"

"Ah, in fact, you have seen it before. When I saved the kitten in the river and almost drowned, he was the one who saved me..."

"Bang bang bang bang bang!!!"

At first, Mary thought that as long as she explained, Xia Li would understand, but she didn't expect that the more she said, the more fierce the attacks from Xia Li would be?

why is that? ? ?

If Duanmuhuai knew what Mary was thinking, he would be speechless. This Nima is really a Cthulhu version of Kannazuki. When he goes back, he must find a whole set of manga for Mary to make up for. Persuasion, or add to the other berserk?

But fortunately, Xia Li's offensive became violent, which also showed that she finally showed her weakness!

"clang!!"

Finally, the black and white swords crossed again and collided. Mary raised her right hand vigorously and bounced Xia Li's sword high. At this moment, her right eye clearly captured Xia Li's movements. At this moment, she only needs to hold the sword in her hand tightly, swing it hard at Xia Li, and then...

"Mary..."

At this moment, Xia Li seemed to be aware of her own defeat. Her emerald green eyes looked at her friend, and a tear appeared in the corner of her eyes.

At this moment, Mary also made a decision.

"Charlie!!!"

Looking at the friend in front of her, Mary raised her right hand, and threw the white sharp blade she was holding tightly into the distance——then she rushed over and hugged Xia Li tightly in her arms.

At that moment, Mary thought back to the conversation she had with Charlie when she was a child at the Bronte's house. At that time, the two talked a lot about love affairs, mother affairs, school affairs, future affairs, and...the promise.

"Charlie, don't worry, it's fine. Even if there are only two of us left in the world, it's completely fine. Charlie will be protected by me, because I'm very strong. I'm strong enough to replace the prince. Even if there are boys, I won't lose to them at all, and I won't cry even if my mother is away. So it's okay, Charlie."

That's right, Charlie has always been afraid of something since she was a child, and Mary would hold Charlie's hand every time this happened.

"As long as we are together, there is nothing to worry about. Let's do many happy things together, study together, and eat a lot of snacks together. Then, we have to grow up together and realize our dreams."

"dream?"

"That's right, to become an excellent lady, to be as beautiful as my mother, to fall in love with an excellent prince, to eat a lot of delicious food, to get married, to have four children, and..."

"But... if something terrible happens..."

"It's okay, when that time comes, Mary will take care of all the scary things! Charlie, Mary will protect you!"

It was a vow between young girls.

"Okay, Charlie, I will protect you."

Holding the familiar, warm body tightly in her arms, Mary whispered. The friend's breath, the friend's hair, the friend's body temperature, at this moment, it seems that they have returned to their own hands.

"Why...Mary? Why...throw away the sword?"

"We don't need to swing swords like that at all, because... we are friends."

"……………friend."

"That's right, so it's not okay to be here alone. If we are here, we can't do anything. You, me and Axie haven't gone to drink tea, haven't gone to eat together, and haven't gone to the theater, have we? You have to read a lot of books you like, and you have to chat non-stop... okay, Charlie?"

"But...Mary, I have given up everything and signed a contract with him..."

"This kind of thing is okay, Xia Li, come back, everyone is together, it is more important than anything else."

"Mary..."

Hearing this, Xia Li's body seemed to have finally lost all strength. The black dress on her body began to melt gradually, and she herself closed her eyes, falling into a deep sleep in Mary's embrace.

"Boom, boom, boom!!!"

The ground began to tremble, and at the next moment, with a "bang", a huge object fell from the sky and landed beside Mary, startling her, and turning her head to look, she saw Duanmuhuai not far behind her at some point At the foot, there is a pile of things that look like fragments of stone statues.

"Mr. Duanmu? This..."

"Okay, congratulations on getting it done, give me someone, we should go, we won't be able to leave if it's too late."

"Why?"

Hearing Duanmuhuai's words, Mary was stunned for a moment, and at this moment, Lorena also jumped up from the other side.

"Master Knight, Miss Mary, there are too many, I can't stop it!"

"I know, don't worry."

Duanmu Huai waved his hands and looked towards the sky.

"Okay, come here and hug me tight."

"Why?"

"quick!!"

Although she didn't know why she did this, Mary still brought the unconscious Xia Li to Duanmuhuai's side, and he hugged the two of them like a cat in his arms. On the other side, Lorena was also lying on his shoulders familiarly.

"Excuse me, what is this......"

"Stop talking, close your eyes, and bite your mouth!"

Duanmuhuai's voice fell, and the next moment, Mary felt a strong impact coming from under her, and in the blink of an eye, it took her straight into the sky like this!
