The day after the day I was forced with Rabbitfoot, I was surfing the internet at random using my magiphone when a notification popped up.

Upon checking the contents, I found that I had been awarded points for defeating the Marquis Class. It was quite a lot compared to the Diests I have defeated so far, and I was one step closer to getting back to the way I am.

 

「Did you get yesterday’s points transferred–ran?」

「Uwaah!? When did you come back…?」

 

Jack, who had not returned after saying he was going to work, was in the room before I knew it.

No, or rather, in the first place,

 

「How do you know what happened yesterday?」

 

Don’t tell me he was watching me?

If so, was I right not to act strangely yesterday?

Because it’s not surprising that this outcast pumpkin is always trying to figure out what I’m up to.

 

「Rabbitfoot is looking around for Ryōichi. It seems that she is investigating secretly so that the other witches don’t notice her. I thought this was something, and sure enough–ran.」

 

Jack waving his pumpkin head as if to say,”Oh dear.” It’s annoying.

 

But Rabbitfoot is looking for me? I quickly left so as not to get into trouble, but why is she getting involved with me from the other side? What could she possibly have done in that short time?

 

Also, if she’s secretly looking into it, how does Jack know?

 

「Rabbitfoot is a Magical Girl that makes videos available to the public–ran.」

 

By setting up settings related to video release in advance, the magical tools of the Magic Bureau will automatically film the battle. Moreover, there are even services that edit videos for you.

Although these services are paid for and require payment of points, the Magical Girl herself can promote herself by posting videos on official websites without having to do anything complicated.

Moreover, since points are awarded based on the number of views of the video, magical girls who can consistently secure a certain number of views can break even in terms of points just by posting that video.

 

「So if it were true, yesterday’s battle would have been edited by the Magic Bureau from now on and eventually made public–ran. But she had gone to the trouble of changing it to a private setting. She really doesn’t want other Magical Girls to know about it.」

 

If she simply want to hide the fact that she are looking for me, there is no need to keep the video private.

If she’s usually making her videos public to begin with, then what she wanted to hide shouldn’t be about her. Perhaps what Rabbitfoot is trying to hide is the existence of a magical girl, Tyrant Sylph. I’ve published very little information, even on the introduction page of my official website. I think it is somehow inconvenient for Rabbitfoot that my details are widely known.

 

「The fact that she was looking for you after withholding information means that she wants to contact you before other magical girls–ran. Or, to be more precise, before any other witches–ran.」

「Does Jack have any idea? I have no idea why she would go to such lengths to find me, do you?」

 

If I want to meet her, it would definitely be faster to release the video and make it widely known to the public to see if this girl knows me.

What reason on earth would I have to go out of my way to make contact with her before other witches?

 

「At first I thought it was a faction war–ran. But it doesn’t look like they’re talking to any pro-life witches, so probably not–ran. I can’t see into her heart either, so I’m just guessing, but I think she wants to surround herself with Ryōichi as a personal asset–ran.」

 

I’m not sure about the factional warfare, the pro-life faction, but that means she wants me to join forces with her.

If that’s the case, I probably don’t have to worry too much about it. I don’t even know if she will find me in the first place because I haven’t even told her my name, and even if she does, it’s not something to be alarmed about.

Of course, I have no intention of getting deeply involved with the Magical Girls, so even if she came to see me, I would not be able to cooperate with her.

 

「Ryōichi will join the tea party after a while anyway–ran. The two of you will meet again eventually. You can talk to her then as well–ran.」

「Eh? What does that mean?」

 

Why a tea party?

 

「I didn’t mention it, but the witches get together regularly for tea parties–ran. Even though it’s not mandatory, you have to show up at least once or it will be difficult to do so in the future.」

「But they don’t know I exist, do they?」

 

According to Jack, I am the magical girl who opened the third gate, the so-called Witch, but as far as I have heard until now, my existence has not been exposed to other witches. Rabbitfoot must not even know that I am a Witch.

 

「That’s because we are in the process of registering a new witch–ran. Once the Bureau of Magical Affairs is done with the procedure, the birth of a new witch will be made known both in the Magical World and on the official website–ran. It’s only a matter of time before Tyrant Sylph will become known–ran.」

「I didn’t even heard this!?」

「It’s not something I’m in a hurry to tell you–ran.」

 

Ugh, perhaps it was the effect of my self-defeating life away from society, but I began to feel sick to my stomach when I heard about events I did not want to go to. Before, this level of stress would never have made me sick to my stomach.

Is my stress tolerance going down……?

 

「The Diest have come out–ran!」

 

Jack begins to rant with the alarm of the blaring magiphone.

No matter how many times I hear it, it’s still too noisy or too loud.

 

「I must go then…」

 

It’s a good escape from reality.

Let’s kick the Diest and relieve stress.

As soon as I transferred, I transformed into a Magical Girl and flew through the air.

Looking down from a high vantage point, I could see at a glance where the Diest was.

Since this Diest is a Baron class, those three should not be coming.

Since there is no need to rush, I approach the Diest to fight as usual, verifying if it is a new Diest or not. Wind Blade was in range of the Diest. The Diest noticed me as it entered the range of the Wind Blade, and turned towards me with what appeared to be its face.

 

A Black Sheep Diest. It is about the size of a thoroughbred horse. The most distinctive feature is its long neck, which is split in two at the base, making it a two-headed animal.

 

I’m feeling bad about this… I feel physiological disgust.

But I felt even more weirded out than that.

The other party is just a Baron Class Diest. As a Witch, I don’t think I can lose, but I can’t help but feel that this Diest must be defeated now.

 

「——— ———!」

「It’s setting you up–ran! Be alert–ran!」

 

While I was puzzling over the sensation for the first time since I became a Magical Girl, the two-headed Sheep Diest started to move.

 

Raising an eerie voice that gave me goosebumps, the Diest began to sing.

I was prepared for the attack, even though I was bewildered, even though Jack told me not to be, but suddenly my vision wobbled.

 

「—!」

「Ryōichi! What’s wrong–ran!?」

 

My thought process is getting slow and the body does not listen to me.

 

What… is this… drowsiness… I’m…

 

「My… senses… are…」

 

I crashed to the ground, unable to even sustain the magic, and the pain made me feel only slightly sleepy, but listening to the Diest song made me sleepy again immediately.

 

「This is hypnosis magic–ran!? How can direct-acting magic work so well on magical girls…」

 

「It’s non… symptomatic… This is… bad… for… Ryōichi–ran!」

 

I tried to stand up, but my body gradually lost strength, and even Jack’s voice became disconnected.

 

「Guuhh!!」

 

Just before I lost consciousness, a tremendous shock went through my body.

It was as if I had been kicked away by the Diest that had approached me before I knew it.

I dare my to enjoy the pain that runs through my body as it bounces like a soccer ball and rolls on the ground for several meters.

 

It was painful. It hurts so much that I want to clench my teeth.

But the sleepiness blew over.

 

Thank goodness the other party was stupid.

If I had been stopped in one breath, there would have been nothing I could have done.

 

「Flying Wing!」

 

The figure jumps up without a pause from its limp position on the ground.

If it take action without showing such a preliminary movement, I should not be able to react!

Anyway, once I’ve get some distance……!

 

I was disappointed at this time.

No, it is correct that I did not have time to think about that.

The sonic attack, its range was enough to reach me flying at high speed.

 

「…! No… way…」

 

As the doomed singing reached my ears while gaining altitude, my body unknowingly began to tremble.

 

I’m going to lose? This easily? If I fought properly, I would never lose, right? That’s not it. I don’t want to die! I don’t want to……! No, not like this…

 

「Not… like… this…」

 

Even a mind trembling with fear becomes unrecognizable in a gradually dulling thought.

Unable to sustain the magic, I will fall, and in a few more seconds I will throw myself to the earth.

 

「No… not… yet…」

 

I know that pain can fool me into thinking I’m sleepy.

The moment I fall, that’s where I have to attack this time.

I don’t know if I can fall from such a great height and fight my way to safety.

But I can’t end up in a place like this.

 

I closed my eyes and prepared for that moment.

 

「………! ……?」

 

The moment I lost the sensation of falling, I felt a slight sense of discomfort, as I was half-asleep, consumed by drowsiness.

It did not hurt a bit. It was as if someone had caught me.

 

「——— —!」

 

Perhaps it was fatal that I closed my eyes, but I was so engulfed by the intense drowsiness that I could not hear the words.

I don’t know why, but it just seemed like a very reassuring, gentle sounding voice, and my awareness was cut off as I surrendered myself to that someone.
