The next day, I went to the place where Dad committed suicide.
I have no way to get information on the one who killed Dad.
So I came to the place where Dad died.
Even if you say it’s a place with little foot traffic, there are fields, and in the daytime people pass through.
And whoever killed Dad used Dad’s phone to send me a map of here.
In other words, they arranged for the corpse to be found.
But I recovered Dad, so no one has found him.
If the culprit finds out the corpse hasn’t been discovered, they should come back here to check on Dad.
That’s my wish, and with how I am now, it was the only thing I could do.

After that, Maehara contacted me, but he says Dad hasn’t been found.
I didn’t tell him Dad is lying on the bed at home.
Not until I find the one who killed Dad.
And I waited, morning and night.
When I wait three days at the place Dad died, three men in a car appear.

“No corpse, but the rope is left.” Continue reading →

A year has passed since I became a magical girl, and a new summer has come.
I had my birthday on March 30 and turned ten, but as of July some of my classmates are already eleven, which is unfair.
It’s still eight months before I turn eleven.
But from the summer I became a magical girl, in this one year, I’ve fought all kinds of magical beasts, youkai, ghosts, and things hostile to people.
I’ve met magical girls from other places, and fought together with them too.
There aren’t many magical girls.
The magical girls I’ve met are five or so, at most.
A lot, and not a lot.
I’ve even met a magical girl from overseas, just once.
As a perk of becoming a magical girl, being able to understand overseas languages helped.
I mean, I don’t understand foreign languages, and I can’t speak them either.
But the Cat God used a magic circle and made it so I can understand foreign languages.
Of course I can speak foreign languages too, and I can even read foreign writing, and write it.
This applies in ordinary times as well.
I feel like I’m cheating somehow, but I’m risking danger to fight, so I think it’s all right to have this much of a benefit.
The other day I even went to see a foreign movie with subtitles.
I can follow the movie without looking at the subtitles.
It felt a little like I’d become a grown-up. Continue reading →

I come to the mountains to defeat a bear that has become a magical beast.
The season is winter.
Snow is piled on the mountains.
But I’m not cold.
The magical girl outfit doesn’t only defend; it protects you from heat and cold too.
My legs and arms and face are showing, but it’s strange that I’m not cold.
Incidentally, you can protect yourself from heat and cold by covering your body with mana as well.
Lately I’ve been wrapping myself in mana when I go to school.
I’m not cold, so it helps.

And when I arrive at the mountains, Dad calls, and I can pick up.
By then the phone charge has gone up to 50%.
I put the phone away in the Extra-dimensional Box.

“So, where’s the bear?”
“That way.”

I follow the Cat God flying through the sky.
Then there it is: the bear I was looking for, tainted by miasma and turned vicious.
If this bear came to where people are, there would definitely be damage.
I use magic and fight the vicious bear.
The bear’s eyes are red, its fangs bared, and it comes at me.
The bear slashes the magic I loose with its claws.

“Strong.” Continue reading →
