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 →

◆◇Sight: Third person◇◆

 

Collapsed in reality, having lost consciousness, Suzuhi is walking a pitch-black space with nothing in it.

“〖Night Vision〗〖Super Night Vision〗——no good, I can’t see anything.”

Even using skills, the darkness does not change.
Is there no light or temperature here.
But her own hands and body are clearly visible——if there is no light they should not be visible. A space that does not feel like reality.

“The quest didn’t show a ‘yes, no’ choice…… a forced event?”

And she does not understand how to get out of here——the anxiety “or rather, am I even alive?” crosses her mind.

“Alice not here? Ill-san! Viewers, can someone comment!”

No reaction at all.
In this pitch-black space there is no figure of Yachimata Alice, no Swallowtail drone, and the viewers’ comments have completely vanished from her vision.

“〖Sixth Sense〗——no reaction.” Continue reading →

To make up for loafing yesterday, I come to the Adventurer’s Guild first thing.
It isn’t that I went back to sleep right after dinner and woke up too early.
…It’s fine. They say children who sleep, grow.

“Liza, morning. I came to take the coal-mine request.”
“Oh, you’re early. Wait a moment… here.”

I read the request form she hands me.
Yep, exactly what I heard yesterday.
A golem-subjugation request in the coal mine. The proof part is apparently the golem’s core.
Notes say it’s so hard ordinary weapons won’t even scratch it.
Hnn. Well, shall I try.

“Then I’ll take this.”
“There have been injuries, so you be careful too, Ouka.”
“Nn. I will.”

She waves smiling and sees me off.
Come to think of it I’ve never been to a coal mine. I wonder what it’s like.
Well, I’ll go without letting my guard down. Continue reading →

10 Magical Girl Meets Bears

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 →

A week since taking the ecological survey request. After that I’ve been spending time without taking any requests. I meant to take leftover requests other people didn’t take, but there weren’t any that looked fun…
So now I’m leisurely loafing. Loafing at Mami’s house with Chii-chan. No, I’m teaching magic.

“Once you can feel that gently warm thing, next the goal is to be able to move it. It just takes a really long time, so let’s take it slow.”
“Okay!”

Even after you can feel mana in your own way, from there it’s very long. They say move mana, but when it comes to how to move it I can’t explain.
Just now I held Chii-chan’s hand and actually moved Chii-chan’s mana for her. But that only lets her know what happens if it moves. You know the result but not the method.
This you can only find your own way for, so I want Chii-chan to do her best.

“By the way, Chii-chan. Where’s Mami?”
“Nnn…”

Ah, she’s concentrating. I won’t get in the way.
I came here an hour ago. Then, Mami was just about to go out. She looked at me and seemed a little lost, but I was asked to watch the house. She said she’d be a little late, though.

“Um… Entrance ceremony, she said.”
“Entrance ceremony…” Continue reading →

“First, to learn that much content, there would never be enough time.
In other words, in the world you were in, children applied themselves to study and hardly worked. Is that wrong?”
“It is as you say.
To be precise, having children work was restricted by law.”
“I see. I could not imagine going that far… but I also accept it.”

Lady Grace nodded at my answer, looking convinced.
That’s how it is. In Japan, children did not need to work.

“In other words, there was no need to have children work.
That much surplus could be held in production and the like.”

I can only say, as expected.
Lady Grace probably understands that as well.
Yes. That world could turn society on adults’ labor alone.
That there happened to be an industrial revolution, and mechanical civilization developed after that, had something to do with it, I suppose.
I am not so much a romantic as to think the ideal of not having children work came first.
But when surplus arose, that they did not take children as labor is something I wish to pay respect to.

…Well, around the industrial revolution there is also a history of working children hard in coalfields and factories, because they could be put into narrow places. Continue reading →

Sunlight peeked over the horizon.
Scattered by the light, dust in the air began to glitter.

The town lit by the morning glow had become a different place in a single night.
Cobblestones crumbled to ruin by the aftershock of the fight.
The outer wall of Romulus Academy was deeply gouged by annihilation magic.

And Charlotte, Olivia, and Natasha, covered in wounds, battered.
All three sat limp on the ground.

The early-morning town was still. House doors opened one after another.
With sunrise the ban on going out at night was lifted, and the citizens of Romulus came outside. Continue reading →

9 Magical Girl Is Asked to Subjugate a Bear

About half a year has passed since I became a magical girl.
Since I saved Dad from the curse, he hasn’t been cursed, for now.
He’s working in good health.
And as for me, I’ve kept being a magical girl.
The biggest reason is that Dad might be cursed again later.

The first time I saw magical beasts, youkai, and ghosts, I was scared.
But I saw them attacking people.
People can’t do anything, get attacked by a magical beast, and get hurt. In the worst case, they die.
Even if you take one down with a hunting rifle, it just moves to another animal. Nothing is solved.
If a magical girl doesn’t defeat them, the damage spreads.

I’ve told the Cat God we should just make more magical girls, but there aren’t many girls with the aptitude to become one.
And as he said at the start, it isn’t only having mana. Personality matters too.
So there aren’t many girls who can become magical girls.
If I quit being a magical girl, I’d be making other magical girls do the things I don’t like.
And I don’t know when Dad might be cursed again.
If I didn’t have a magical girl’s power then, I couldn’t save him.
That’s why I keep being a magical girl. Continue reading →

◆◇Sight: Narita Inori◇◆

 

“Look, it’s Narita.”
“Gross…… you’ll catch the virus, so stay away and eat?”

Datanoid soldiers moving away from This unit.
But This unit feels nothing. This unit keeps carrying food to its mouth.

Silently, scoop soup, carry to mouth, scoop soup, carry to mouth. Repeating that, a square tray is set in front of its eyes.

“Is here okay?”

When This unit looks up, there is a blonde girl.
Probably not a Datanoid, a Homo sapiens.
Someone who belongs to the military and still has not become a Datanoid, and is still surviving.
Either outstanding, or a rookie. One or the other.
But it is rare for a Homo sapiens to come here, a Datanoid cafeteria.

Surely this person does not know who This unit is. That is why she is trying to sit close.
This unit introduces itself as usual.

“This unit’s name is Inori.”
“I’m Iris.” Continue reading →

In the end I didn’t make sundown yesterday, and I stayed a night in Asura.
The just-caught grilled fish was delicious, so I’ll call it fine.
It’s fish in season now, apparently; the taste is mild but it’s fatty, and every bite the savor of fish wells out. A good grilled fish.
You can’t eat that kind of thing except in a port town.

So, the next morning. I leave around dawn and arrive in the capital before noon.
First I decide to take the wyvern fangs to the Adventurer’s Guild.
The proof parts smell a bit, actually. I don’t want to go back to the inn carrying these.

“Chiwaaas.”
“Oh, welcome back.”

I head for guild reception and Liza is smiling softly, same as always.
A feast for the eyes. I feel better.

“I’m home. I hunted wyverns, so please take these.”
“Yes, I’ll take them… wait. Hey, this is all of them?”

Liza takes the bag and asks.
Her face looks a bit twitchy, too.

“This is all of them.”
“…I see. A pack of wyverns this time. I feel like my common sense is going to go strange.” Continue reading →
