The legend of the Crimson Demon clan started from Suqing

Beating them away… it wasn't really beating them away. In any case, after the superior demon Houst left, Zun Zun didn't have any intention of chasing after him. Her top priority was to find Mimi.

Besides, Houst probably wouldn't hurt Mimi. Didn't he just say that if he hurt someone from the Crimson Demons, Mimi wouldn't play with him anymore? To be manipulated by a little loli, this demon is really losing face.

Zun Zun continued to run through the forbidden area.

To reiterate, the forbidden area of the Crimson Demon Village is very large, because it contains the Tomb of the Evil God, the Watchtower, the Altar, the Forbidden Technology Archive, and so on. The area ratio of the forbidden area to the Crimson Demon Village is approximately 3:2.

Zun Zun is currently at the altar, which is near the field she cultivated.

Because Megumin, Yunyun, and the others are at school, the job of taking care of the land was entrusted to Mimi. In addition, she often runs here to play.

But the little loli isn't here now.

Where could she be?

Suddenly—

A loud explosion came from the depths of the forbidden area, and the ground shook slightly as flames soared into the sky.

That is… Yunyun's magic?

Zun Zun's heart skipped a beat. She told them not to run around, so why did they come to the forbidden area?

She turned around and ran towards the direction of the flames.

Soon, Zun Zun saw Megumin's little sister, Mimi. She stood blankly in the middle of the road, watching the flames and lightning that kept erupting in front of her, clapping her hands with excitement instead of fear.

"Mimi?"

"Zun Zun, Onee-chan!"

"It's Onii-chan!"

Zun Zun quickly came to the little loli's side, checking if she was injured. She found that other than a little mud on her clothes, she was completely unharmed. After subconsciously breathing a sigh of relief, she asked:

"Mimi, what are you doing here?"

"I came out to play!"

She said it so confidently that no one could scold her.

For ordinary children, they know to run home when it thunders and rains, but the children of the Crimson Demons can stand in the rain and strike a pose, and even add a line like "Shatter the darkness with thunder!"

"Also, Onee-chan is here too."

"Megumin, huh…"

Hearing Mimi's words, she was slightly silent. Having just sensed Yunyun's magic, she could guess what had happened.

"Onee-chan said she was going to help me get Kuro back, so she ran back."

"…Is that so? She's a good Onee-chan."

"Yeah! Good Onee-chan!"

Mimi raised her small face with an innocent smile.

Zun Zun ruffled her hair and said, "Okay, in that case, then Onii-chan will also help you bring Onee-chan back!"

"Really? But it seems very dangerous there…"

"Hmph, who do you think I am? Standing before you is the goddess-appointed, pre-ordained hero, the possessor of a god's body, the number one of the Crimson Demon's new generation, aiming to be the strongest Crimson Demon, the one and only Zun Zun!"

"Oh, oh, oh—so cool!"

Zun Zun pointed her left index and middle fingers at the ground, and her right index and middle fingers at the sky. The pose she struck was in perfect harmony with the flames and lightning behind her, making the little loli clap her hands and exclaim excitedly.

"Mimi, you stay here…"

"I want to go too!"

"…Is that okay?"

"Yes! Although Onee-chan said that her next battle might not be so cool, I still want to watch Onee-chan, so I want to go too!"

Mimi clenched her fist in front of her chest, her fighting spirit appearing quite high.

Ha, as expected of a Crimson Demon.

When she grows up, she will definitely be a big shot!

"Okay, let's go together!"

Zun Zun picked up Mimi in one swift motion, carried her on her shoulders, and ran quickly towards the direction where flames and lightning were constantly erupting.

On the other side.

Megumin watched Yunyun's figure constantly releasing magic, shouting behind her: "Yunyun, I'll help you!"

"Wait a minute, why are you here? Didn't you run away?!" Yunyun shouted back without taking her eyes off the monsters that were falling one after another.

The little loli snorted softly: "How could I run away after owing a favor to someone who calls herself my rival?"

"You're the one who started seeing me as your rival! Besides, I'm already a true arch-mage who has mastered magic. I'm not the same as the fake arch-mage Megumin!"

"F-Fake? You dare say that, you mere intermediate arch-mage!"

"Intermediate mage sounds like an incompetent Crimson Demon, don't call me that!"

Just as the two were bickering, the monster that was originally on the ground suddenly pounced on Yunyun. But Yunyun, who was focused at all times, was not careless either. She picked up Kuro by her feet and quickly rolled away. At the same time, she threw the short sword at her waist with her free hand. Whether it was aimed or by chance, the thrown short sword pierced the monster's throat.

Tss—

A sound like air being released came out. The monster that was stabbed in the throat clutched its neck and fell to the ground, then turned into a wisp of black smoke and disappeared.

Seeing this, the other monsters also attacked Yunyun by gliding.

Megumin stepped forward and came to Yunyun's side, saying: "It seems you are in a crisis, intermediate arch-mage Yunyun! Next, I, who will soon become a superior arch-mage, will sweep away these small fries for you!"

"Wait a minute, what are you saying without rhyme or reason? What do you think I learned intermediate magic for?!"

Yunyun stretched out her hand towards the attacking monsters.

Megumin was still trying to justify herself: "From today on, you will no longer be self-proclaimed, I will indeed acknowledge you as my rival! Speaking of which, you don't think you can be ahead of me just because you graduated first, do you? Dream on! Next, I will also—"

"Fireball!"

Without waiting for Megumin to finish, Yunyun launched a fireball spell at the monster army.

That move was infused with all of her magic power. The fireball that exploded in the center of the monster group triggered an explosion that exceeded the scale of intermediate magic, producing a loud noise that resounded throughout the area. The seven monsters that fell from the sky disappeared along with the black smoke.

The effect was remarkable!

After confirming that all the enemies were annihilated, perhaps because she had used up all her strength, Yunyun knelt weakly on the ground. Megumin quickly rushed to her side.

"That way… Megumin won't need to learn superior magic, right!"

Yunyun's small face, which was a little pale due to the exhaustion of her magic power, wore a smug expression. However, before Megumin could bicker with her, Yunyun's expression froze again.

Megumin followed her gaze, but couldn't say the words that came to her lips, because a monster army was constantly flying towards them from the sky.

Everything is over!

Yunyun felt powerless.

But Megumin stood up, her small body stood tall and straight, seemingly not afraid of the monster army at all, and her eyes were already glowing with a passionate crimson light.

"W-Wait… Megumin?"

"Don't worry, Yunyun, I will defeat these small fries!"

"Megumin, are you going to learn superior magic? Aren't you always saying how much you like explosion magic?!"

"…A genius like me can definitely easily hunt a bunch of monsters, and the mere thirty skill points can be saved up immediately. No matter how much time it takes, I will definitely learn explosion magic!"

That's right, whether it's a few years or a few decades!

She must learn explosion magic!

Megumin took out her adventurer card, her fingers trembling as she reached for the superior magic column.

To be honest, this was her dream since she was a child, how could she give up so easily. But other than that, there was no other way to save Yunyun.

There were clearly only a few skill points missing.

Yesterday, there were four points missing. She killed a leek duck and gained two points, plus the skill point potion that the teacher gave her because of the braised duck… There was only one point missing, she could clearly learn explosion magic with just one point, but now it was so out of reach!

There was no other way.

The little loli made up her mind and no longer hesitated. Her open eyes carried a hint of determination, just as she was about to learn superior magic—

"Megumin!"

A shout came from afar.

"—Catch!"

A small bottle was seen flying in a perfect parabola and hitting her on the head, then being successfully caught by her large wizard hat and falling into her arms.

"What is this…?"

The little loli looked at the small bottle in her hand in disbelief.

In the distance, Zun Zun raised her right fist towards her and shouted with encouragement: "For me, for us… Megumin, use explosion magic on them!"

"Good luck, Onee-chan!"

Mimi also shouted loudly.

"Haha… Hahaha… Hahahahahaha—"

Megumin fell into a frenzy, laughing as she raised her head and drank the skill point potion, and then her whole body surged with an extraordinary magic power wave, causing the surrounding atmosphere to spread and the trees to tilt.

"Amazing! Onee-chan is releasing electricity! It's crackling!"

"Mimi, you must watch carefully, this is the most glorious moment of your Onee-chan so far."

Zun Zun silently looked at the little loli.

As the magic power continued to condense, static electricity surrounded her, and the surrounding scenery also became blurred and distorted.

This should be because she didn't have enough control over her magic power, resulting in her inability to condense all of her magic power into the spell, and a small amount of magic power leaked out and caused physical interference to her surroundings.

A huge magic circle expanded in front of her like a ring, encompassing the swarm of monsters in the sky.

Chanting followed.

Zun Zun couldn't help but chant softly along with her.

"This is the flame of origin, and also the flame of termination, now, past, future, the forbidden power that transcends all phenomena. Flame, I am the destroyer, a heartless person. Now, with my blood, with my flesh, I break the commandments of the ancient gods!—Explosion!"

A beam of light descended from the sky and smashed into the very center of the monster group, pausing for a beat. As the dazzling light bloomed in the night sky, a grand firework was set off.

Boom—!
