It was just a dream after all. In fact, by the time the girls had finished their breakfast, most of them had already put that strange dream behind them.

Dreams are basically like this. Maybe you can still remember some specific plots when you just wake up. However, when you wash your face, brush your teeth, finish your meal and plan to tell your friends what you dreamed about, you probably can't remember it.

So after finishing breakfast, the girls put their thoughts aside and continued to focus on their main task.

However, Fang Zheng also gave a suggestion for this.

Since there are magical girls in this world, there must be things that can fight against magical girls, so as long as we find these things, it will only be a matter of time before we find the magical girls... Following this idea, Fang Zheng sent the five magical girls out into the city to look for those strange-looking places.

As for what place you said looks weird?

Only the magical girl would know that.

Even though she is a magical girl from another world, she is still a magical girl at least. Isn't the probability of magical girls encountering monsters higher?

Unfortunately... their plan was forced to stop just as it was beginning.

As for the reason, it's very simple.

Although this world is a parallel Earth, it is indeed Earth, and it is Japan.

More importantly, it’s still school time.

So the first problem the magical girls encountered when they excitedly took to the streets to look for their enemies was the police.

That's right. When you see a group of teenage girls wandering aimlessly on the streets instead of attending classes in the classroom during school hours other than on weekends, doesn't it make people feel suspicious?

Not to mention that these kids aren’t even wearing school uniforms yet?

Therefore, the girls were quickly stopped by the police sisters and uncles and began to be interrogated.

"What are your names?"

"Why don't you go to school?"

"Where is your home?"

"What happened? Do you need help?"

...So the magical girls had to flee back to the base for refuge.

What else could they do? They couldn't just blast these civil servants with a starlight explosion.

In the end, the girls had no choice but to decide to go out searching after school in this world in the afternoon. The rest of the time, it would be better for them to stay in the base. Otherwise, if they were discovered by the police, they would be sent directly to a small dark room.

Fortunately, although the girls stayed in the warehouse for a day, nothing unusual happened. But think about it, most of the magical girls are students, and they must go to class. If you attack every now and then during the day, then the magical girls will have no classes to attend, and skipping classes or repeating a grade will be a problem!

However, as night fell, Fang Zheng and Zhi Shi soon discovered the unknown wave targets they were looking for on the screen.

It's just that these two fluctuations, one is in the east and the other is in the west...

"Illya and Kuro go east, Nanoha, Fate, and Sakura go west."

Fang Zheng made a decision quickly, and the magical girls who had been holding back for a day were also ready to go. They quickly attacked - this time with the cover of night, they didn't need to run on the street. It was faster to just transform and fly to their destination.

The first to arrive at the destination were the Nanoha trio.

“It’s right here!”

After landing on the ground, the three of them looked around curiously. This was an abandoned old factory, and there were no people around. But for some reason, they always had a bad feeling.

"I feel like there's something strange here... there's a very uncomfortable vibe."

"Me too……"

Nanoha and Sakura carefully observed their surroundings while cautiously walking towards the factory. However, at this moment, Fate seemed to have suddenly noticed something, and stood in front of the two of them, then raised his right hand. Soon, a golden barrier emerged from Fate's hand.

"clang!!"

At the same time, a red spear suddenly flew out, hit Fate's magic barrier, and then quickly bounced back.

"Who is it? Come out now!"

Gripping the Thunder Axe tightly in his hand, Fate stared at the shadow in the distance and spoke coldly. Then, a somewhat lazy voice sounded.

"Hey, I never thought that someone would get here before me."

As the voices were spoken, a girl with a red ponytail and holding a taiyaki walked out from the shadows, and in her other hand, she held a spear.

"You're still a child..."

Looking at the three people in front of her, the red-haired girl with a ponytail frowned and ate the Taiyaki in her hand in one bite.

"I thought that guy wouldn't be so disgusting... But forget it, hey, I'm telling you, there's no point in you coming here, right? Because what's here is just a familiar, not a witch. It needs to eat four or five people before it becomes a witch."

“Eat people?!”

Hearing the girl's words, Nanoha, Fate and Sakura were all surprised.

"Will the monsters here eat people?"

"Of course, isn't it obvious? Don't you know? I can't imagine how you became magical girls..."

"Since it's a man-eating monster, we can't just ignore it!"

Thinking of this, Nanoha made up her mind.

"Fate, Sakura, let's go destroy that monster called familiar!"

"OK!"

Hearing what Nanoha said, Fate and Sakura nodded, then quickly turned around and ran towards the abandoned factory.

“Swish!”

However, at this moment, suddenly, the spear flew out again, and with a "bang" it blocked in front of Nanoha and others. Then the next moment, the girl with red hair and a ponytail appeared again.

"Hey, didn't I tell you? There's no benefit in killing that guy. If you want to kill him, at least wait until he turns into a witch!"

"But, according to what you said, that monster called a familiar can hurt people, right?"

Sakura asked with some trepidation.

“Shouldn’t we protect others?”

"Protect others?"

Hearing what Sakura said, the red-haired girl with a ponytail sneered.

"A little girl is a little girl, so naive. Do you know the food chain? You should have been taught in school. The law of the jungle is the law of the world. Witches eat people, and we magical girls eat witches... This is the right way to do it. If you don't become a witch, you won't get the Seed of Sorrow. How can you kill the chicken before it lays eggs?"

"What……?"

Hearing this, Nanoha, Fate and Sakura were all stunned. They had never thought that they would hear such cold and ruthless words from a magical girl!

"So what you're saying is that we should just sit back and watch those familiars harm humans?"

"They deserve it. They are weak, so they deserve to be eaten. This is the truth of this world."

The red-haired girl with a ponytail smiled and waved her hand.

"Take this as some advice from my elder sister. Stop it now while there is still time."

“…”

Hearing this, the three of them looked at each other, then Nanoha stepped forward and looked bravely at the red-haired girl with a ponytail.

"To be honest, big sister, I don't quite understand what you mean. I don't know what the Seed of Sorrow is, nor do I know what a familiar is, but I know that if I can, I want to protect others from being hurt... I want to know why you don't do that, big sister. Is that thing called the Seed of Sorrow important to you? Is it so important that you don't mind watching innocent people get hurt?"

“…”

Hearing Nanoha's question, the red-haired girl with a ponytail turned much colder. She swallowed the remaining Taiyaki in one gulp, then suddenly turned the spear, and the next moment, the sharp tip of the spear was pointed at Nanoha's throat.

"Nanoha!"

Seeing this, Sakura and Fate couldn't help but shout out. But Nanoha didn't look back, but just silently raised the Heart of the Rising Sun in her hand.

"I will stop her, Sakura, Nanoha, I'll leave the familiar in the factory in your hands!"

"OK!"

After hearing what Nanoha said, Fate and Sakura nodded, then turned around and rushed into the old factory. Seeing this scene, the red-haired girl with a ponytail showed a hint of anger.

"Do you still want to play the game of Justice Partners? How foolish! Magical girls are not that naive!"

"That's why I want to know what kind of magical girl you mentioned, sister."

While raising the Heart of the Rising Sun, Nanoha looked at the other party.

"Can't we talk about this?"

"There's nothing to talk about with brats like you. Looks like I need to calm your head down for a while!"

As the red-haired girl with a ponytail spoke, the next moment, a sharp spear with a cold light stabbed towards Nanoha!
