Chapter 63. Cupid: This is not scientific!

"Apricot jam!"

"Don't worry! I can manage on my own."

The pink-haired girl's worried voice drew a response from Sakura Kyoko in front of her.

"There are solutions."

"So Sayaka! I'll definitely save you!"

"But before that, I have to make you die once!"

Wielding her spear to block the incoming flying knives, Sakura Kyoko's mood was no longer as heavy as before.

Having returned from the Dragon Ball war, Kyoko thought she had no other choice but to confront Sayaka, who had become a witch.

But just now, she felt it.

That force, which did not belong to them, was stirring restlessly.

The dead are resurrected…

That was the card that Jonouchi had left on her.

I never imagined that it would still exist and be usable even after crossing the world.

Although she didn't know the specific effects, she believed in Jonouchi.

"If you survive, good things will always happen... right?"

"Within the castle!"

An exaggerated burst of magic erupted, but Sakura Kyoko did not hesitate for a moment.

Perhaps because she became a Heroic Spirit, she became much stronger than before.

Therefore, dealing with Sayaka in her witch form is not too difficult now.

"I also know about what happens after she becomes a witch."

"So... I will end your pain and struggle!"

"Sayaka!"

The sound echoed within the barrier, and Sakura Kyoko then personally destroyed the "Mermaid Witch".

"Will it really work?"

As the witch vanished into thin air, Madoka Kaname whispered a question.

"It's okay! I believe in that guy."

Sakura Kyoko took out the glowing card from her pocket and waved it forward.

"The dead have been resurrected..."

"launch!"

The wandering soul neither departed nor dissipated, but was forcibly dragged back from the "graveyard" by the unreasonable "rules".

What one possesses here is a perfectly intact "body".

"Huh...?"

"Aha!"

"It really...successfully?"

When she came to her senses, the blue-haired girl found herself slumped on the ground, with Kyoko and Madoka's happy and surprised expressions and voices right in front of her.

"Very good…"

"Very good…"

Tears of joy welled up as the body that rushed towards her was so warm. Sayaka carefully raised her hands and embraced the girl in front of her, feeling the real touch.

"I'm alive?"

Sayaka's mind was still reeling, her voice trembling with disbelief.

"Hehe, you silly goose, you really did come back to life."

Sakura Kyoko put away her spear and disguise, and grinned.

.........

"Hmm... so what exactly is going on?"

"Incomprehensible!"

The small, cute creature standing not far away with the black-haired girl asked a question.

Cupid's tail was wagging incessantly; it was clear that the current situation was beyond expectations.

Even it can't understand it anymore.

"..."

Homura Akemi's eyes widened as she was deeply shocked.

She had reincarnated so many times, but she had never witnessed such a scene before.

Sayaka's death as a witch was "predestined".

But now it seems...

"Sakura Kyoko..."

"She created a miracle that's more powerful than magic!"

Kyubey's words reflected Homura Akemi's thoughts at that moment.

"In your human terms, this might be what you call..."

"Defying fate?"

Every word struck Homura Akemi's heart like a hammer, leaving her with so many questions she wanted to ask and understand.

Hidden within her was a mix of anxiety and excitement; Homura Akemi was more eager than anyone to know what Kyoko Sakura had done.

Without hesitation, she jumped out; she wanted to find the other party and get to the bottom of things.

"Yes, an unknown event has occurred... It needs to be investigated."

Talking to himself, Cupid followed.

.........

"Um?"

Upon witnessing Homura Akemi and Kyubey's appearance, Kyoko Sakura could clearly feel their gazes fixed upon her.

That attitude of wanting to get to the bottom of things seems too obvious.

But the next moment, they were all drawn to Xiaoyuan's voice.

"Sayaka sauce..."

"your…"

"Where is the Soul Stone?"

Turning her head, she saw Madoka staring at the astonished Sayaka with a worried expression.

"not see…"

"It's gone."

Sayaka was stunned when she realized she hadn't found the blue soul gem on herself.

"Does this mean you've turned back into a human?"

Sakura Kyoko was also filled with astonishment, not expecting it to have such an effect.

"No, Anzu, something doesn't seem right about what you're saying."

Before Homura Akemi could speak, Sayaka seemed to have thought of something, stood up, and then grinned wickedly.

"Um?"

Kyoko tilted her head, not understanding why Sayaka said that.

But then, a scene that shocked everyone appeared.

The changing clothes, the cloak draped over the shoulders, the military knife in hand.

"Clang! Clang!!"

"Magical Girl Sayaka..."

"Appearance!"

The group of people were stunned as they watched Sayaka transform even while still in her pose.

"It seems that even though I lost the Soul Stone, I still retain the power to transform after coming back to life."

"If I really had to say..."

"I'm the real magical girl now, aren't I?"

Sayaka was very pleased with the astonished expressions on everyone's faces, and she explained happily.

"Is that so?"

Without the Soul Gem, there's no need for the Seed of Lamentation to purify.

On that basis, one can also use the powers of a magical girl while remaining human.

This comparison...

Homura Akemi and the others seem to be like "defective" unfinished products.

"Ugh! You're getting way too cocky these days!"

Suddenly feeling annoyed, Sakura Kyoko loudly criticized Sayaka's smug expression.

"Hehe, I'm definitely better than you now."

"You really dare to say that! Don't you even know who saved you!"

The two making a ruckus actually made Xiaoyuan smile with relief.

(Thank goodness, everyone is alright.)

Xiaoyuan was so happy, feeling so gratified.

But Kyubey's face froze. After confirming Sayaka's condition, it had a thought.

This unscientific!

If magical girls can use their powers without the Soul Gem, then that would be contrary to their original purpose.

No, no, no!

If every magical girl were like that, wouldn't their plans be completely ruined?

Magical girls exist to become witches...

The energy generated from it is beneficial to the universe!

How can we let something so absurd sever our ties!

We must stop it!

In any case, the method used by Sakura Kyoko was determined to nip it in the bud.

"Sakura-san..."

"What method did you use...?"

"Can you tell me?"

Upon hearing Homura Akemi's words, Kyoko Sakura, who had been playfully fighting with Sayaka, stopped.

She turned her head and saw Homura Akemi's suppressed excitement and her slightly trembling hands.

The tone was full of urgency…

"Well... that's a long story..."
