Orkan’s company and Inori’s Darmas Division rush to Planet Leens, but——because of Darmas’s graft they cannot get decent resupply, and they end up almost wiped out.

Before Inori’s eyes, 〈Atlas〉’s laser punches through Orkan’s torso.

“Orkan-taicho!”

Orkan is a Datanoid. But in the earlier battle, his data has been lost from the database.
Inori looks around.
The scene around her is truly corpses piled on corpses. Countless bodies of Datanoids who can no longer move. Scattered on the snow.
In the center of that, only Inori’s breath floats, blinking white against the night sky.

“Remaining troop count, ten…… comms cut——desperate.” Continue reading →

I pop out of the hole I dug on the way in, and the sun is still high.
If I head back now I should make the capital by sundown.
…I’m really tired today.

I don’t want to meet monsters, so I fly high.
At this height I can see the surroundings all at once, so I feel safe.
I’ll look at the nice view and go home at a leisurely pace, no rush.

That’s what I thought, but.
There’s a pack of wyverns over that way.
And they seem to be attacking something.

“…Haa. Ring.”
“—Multiple demonfolk: under attack.”
“Demonfolk? Demonfolk, the ones in the war?”
“—Affirmative.”

The long war between humans and demonfolk.
It only ended three years ago; the memory is still fresh.
My town didn’t take damage, so it doesn’t feel real, but.

“Hmm… well, anyway, shall I go.”

I dive straight in at the same altitude. Continue reading →

After I killed the crow tainted by miasma, I ended up in a feeling I couldn’t put into words.
The Cat God told me, “Try thinking of it as defeating, not killing.”
The words are similar, but killing and defeating are different.
I switch my feelings.
I tell myself I can fight.
From now on I have to fight as a magical girl.
And more than anything, I have to save Dad.
I can tell my heart is gradually settling.

“Ordinary girls cry, or they hate it, but you’re different.”
“So, with this, can I save Dad?”
“I still think it’s early. But stopping you looks pointless.”

I know Dad is suffering.
I want to save him even a little sooner.

“Well then, tonight, let’s save your dad.”

I can finally save Dad. Continue reading →

“Now then, once more, Asha.
I had you come today for no other reason.
I wish to hear about the education you received.”

After some time of this and that in a bustle, Lady Grace said it in a settled voice, as if nothing had happened.
The content itself was as I had expected, so I nodded.
…That my neck moved quite jerkily and not well was surely because I had been made to wait too long. That was it.

“Yes. I presented myself thinking it might be so.
I would be glad if it is of even a little reference.”

I bowed my head again.
Yes. To be honest, I thought it a true honor.
That she is an incredible beauty is there, but that is almost extra.
This presence that can stand even with the Demon King, this charisma. And more than anything that firm attitude.
And yet a soft atmosphere that does not give a sense of pressure.
Ah, I found myself thinking, surely one would be happy ruled by a king like this.

…Ah, the Demon King is a fine king too, that is also certain!
Just a slightly different type, really, really!
I followed up toward somewhere.
…Auh, that Dorothea laughed, kusu, was it because she had read my feelings? Continue reading →

“It can’t be helped… I’ll show you true terror…”

Parting the black mist, Bram slowly appeared.

“Wha—what is that form!?”

Gleaming bright-red eyes.
Hair dyed an uncanny white.
His skin, turned blue-pale, was covered on the surface with blackish veins.

A Bram like a different person stood there.

“No—his arm has regenerated!”

“Tremendous mana! Lady Charlotte, Livi, behind me!”

“Hihihih… this is a vampire’s final secret art… True Ancestor Return…” Continue reading →

I spent about a week being taught how to handle magic, and in that time I studied magical beasts and youkai too.
A week of my summer break disappeared.

“Shall we try actual combat soon?”
“Then I can save Dad?”

That’s why I became a magical girl.
And lately Dad’s face looks terribly tired.
The Cat God said it’s because he’s cursed.
I wanted to help him right away, but he said he was still all right, and didn’t do anything.

“But before that, it would be better to fight a low-rank magical beast first.”
“A low-rank magical beast? I still can’t save Dad?”
“There’s an order to things. What will you do if your first fight against a curse is a loss? With other magical beasts, if you lose you can just run. But in your dad’s case, if you run, it might get worse. So failure isn’t allowed. That’s why it’s better after you’ve had actual combat. And more than anything, if you fail and you resent me, I’ll be in trouble.” Continue reading →

Orkan’s voice comes from above Inori’s bowed head.
When Inori lifts her face, a huge back is there. Muscle so packed it is stretching the military uniform.

At the captain’s sudden appearance, Inori looks up, eyes wide.

“O-Orkan-taicho……?”

A person who should not be in this place. Inori never met Orkan in middle school.
So Inori thinks. (Why is Orkan-taicho here?) There is no reason for the hacker to place Orkan here. If the hacker’s goal is to keep her from waking, he would never let her meet someone who would tell her “wake up.”
Then did Orkan himself hack her?
But Orkan is a man who does not understand programs, let alone hacking. So Orkan cannot appear in this place.

“Why are you here……”
“Fighting spirit.” Continue reading →

Nuaah… I’m still a bit unsteady…
I don’t know if it’s the recoil from just now or if I’m hungry, but maybe I should have rested a little more.
But I don’t want to hang around too long in ancient ruins.
You never know what will come out.

Almost at the entrance. Let’s go home already.

“—Ouka! That floor—!”
“…Heh?”

Ring’s voice, unusually hurried.
The next instant the floor goes buiin, and the view I was seeing changes.

Ha? What?

“—The warning was late. A transfer trap.
—Confirming present location. Numerous mana readings in the vicinity, caution.”
“…Anyway I get that it’s dangerous. Ring.”
“—Sakura-Drive Ready.”

“Ignition… they just keep coming, huh.”

Bones well up from the ground, boko boko.
Skeletons, but a lot of them. More than ten.
Every one is armed with sword and shield.
Anyway, shall I punch through them.

“Now then. Shall we dance together, you bones.” Continue reading →

6 Magical Girl Learns Magic

Once I received the magical girl outfit, I had to learn how to handle magic.
Even if you have mana, you can’t use magic if you don’t know anything.
In manga and anime, they use magic the instant they become a magical girl, but apparently it isn’t that easy.
You can’t do schoolwork if you don’t study, and you don’t get good at sports without practice.

“The basis of magic is image.”
“Image? You don’t say spells, or chant?”

In some anime and manga, you can use magic by saying a spell or chanting. And using magic without a chant often gets you respect.

“No spells, and no chants. You’ve watched too much manga and anime.”

I don’t want to hear that from the cat who based the magical girl outfit on anime.

“I told you there’s a mana core near your heart, right?”
“Yeah. We stretched mana lines out from there.”

It hurt a lot. Continue reading →

A Summons One Day

Some time after the public bathing facilities were installed.
I was spending busy days again, turning through examinations and dodging Nasti’s spiteful teasing, when a messenger came from the Demon King.

“That I am to present myself.”
“Yes. Lady Grace has at last found time, and she wishes it most particularly.”

The messenger explained so.
Incidentally, this person was a winged demonfolk called a featherfolk.
A form like a human with wings grown, and honestly one could not say they did not look like an angel.
In fact they are a being close to the monsters called harpies, or Harpyiai.

They look slender, and their arm strength is not that great, as they look. Magic varies by individual, but it is said to be far stronger than a human’s.
And they can actually fly with the wings on their backs, so they would be a perfect fit for messengers like this.

Now then. That aside, the reason for the summons was a so it has finally come.
I, too, had wanted to meet her once, and there were various things I wanted to ask.

“As you will. I shall present myself in accordance with the summons.”

I bowed my head, respectfully.
