Chapter 25: Tea Party Executor.

The sudden twist caught everyone off guard.

At the critical moment—

“Watch out!”

Octo-Bro shoved the Delinquent Girls with his tentacles, dodging the fatal strike.

Cost: several tentacles severed on spot, blood spraying, falling everywhere.

Shadow landed—Su Tang saw clear.

Tall woman.

Face: silver thorn-pattern mask covering upper half; exposed lips thin, bloodless, no curve—exquisite cold, perfect doll.

Outfit Tea Party-like, but sharper.

Lolita base: deep navy stiff satin dark patterns; skirt knee-up for mobility; layered lace → sleek metal clasps; cuffs tight, elbow black mesh gloves; weapon severing tentacles in hand.

Silver dining knife—long ruler glint; markings precision elegant.

“Tea Party!”

Ningliu snapped, recognized style: “That strike—kill Delinquent? Su Tang, right?”

“Yeah… lethal intent.” Su Tang grave.

Belated realization.

Tao Lian said: Tea Party only punish magical girls, no monster fights.

But power—all on magical girls.

Puzzling: indulged Delinquent before—now death?

Like Ningliu guessed: think Su Tang brainwashed/controlled—traitors, clean house?

No time think—executor wrist flip, knife raise, lock Delinquent.

Su Tang must act.

Octo-Bro shop not reopened; “correction” incomplete—99% download hate.

No Tea Party wipe.

But Ningliu here—can’t yet.

Distract her.

Whisper: “Ningliu… what now?”

See Ningliu pale, terrified.

Fear what?

‘Queen’ earlier normal; now target Delinquent—not her.

…Think zero points = next?

Delinquent execution deep meaning—Ningliu brain no.

“No fear. I-I protect you!”

Ningliu tighter arm grip, stutter shake.

Su Tang stunned, brow raise.

Hard mouth or not—protect words.

This girl…

But question: her view, not protection.

Shows: Su Tang easy trigger protect instinct.

Act bit—grasp firm.

“Magical girls killing each other… wrong?”

Normie view to Ningliu: “Get help? Stop fight?”

“Right!”

Ningliu nod frenzy: “Hesitate? Slip!”

“No, stay—maybe help.”

Su Tang shake: “Civilian—Tea Party no bother me. You get help—teachers, Tao Lian sis!”

“Su Tang boss…”

Ningliu worship eyes: “Got it—back soon!”

Rabbit bolt—no look back, lane out.

Watch back—Su Tang nod satisfy.

“Act”: fear yet brave image set.

Fear: future protect desire.

Brave: future “out” actions pad.

Perfect.

Ningliu gone—Su Tang shadow hide, chant transform.

Heat surge; tight black leather curves; long whip; Queen descend!

Alley “execution” continue.

Delinquent vs. executor pressure—no resist intent, only retreat dodge, cry explain:

“No collude monster!”

“Just apologize!”

“Believe! No betray!”

Guessed Tea Party silence reason—no fight = confirm betray; hope pale words useless dodge.

Executor close—knife weird arc, throat one!

CRACK!

Black whip shadow lightning tear night—precise side knife; force deflect, graze neck, snip hairs fall.

Twist—executor pause, turn source.

Alley mouth: Su Tang tall emerge; leather dim glint; silver hair auto; red eyes lazy tease.

“!?”

Delinquent ash-face.

‘Queen’ now—prove meet?

Yellow River unjumpable!

Executor eye Su Tang—no instant attack.

Next: lips still, voice mask flat zero ripple—like machine fact:

“Monster ‘Queen’ appear, with targets, action: obstruct, intent strong.”

“Association confirmed.”

“Evidence ironclad.”
