「You made a good decision–ran! I’m sure your choice will lead Ryōichi’s life in the right direction–ran!」

 

Where was his auspicious attitude a few moments ago?

He may have been expressing his feelings of joy, but it was simply unpleasant. Does this guy not understand human emotions?

 

「Please move on with your story. Becoming a Magical Girl, what do I have to do to become one?」

 

I don’t want to be, but I have to. Then I want to get it over with.

 

My knowledge of magical girls is very old. It’s like waving a toy-like wand or casting a very strange spell to transform.

Once upon a time, I was somehow watching a magical girl anime that my sister was watching with me. Come to think of it, back then, that person was talking about wanting to be a magical girl. She would have never thought that her brother would now be a magical girl.

 

「First we go to the archives–ran! There you need to choose your magic–ran!」

「Archive? Where is it located?」

「It’s not somewhere off the face of the earth–ran! It’s in a different space, magically isolated–ran! We call this other space the Magical World–ran! We’re going to the Magical World now–ran! Are you ready–ran?」

「By preparation you mean, do I need to prepare for something?」

「Nope–ran! I was just asking for some reason!」

「This pumpkin!」

 

I let my anger get the better of me and hit Jack in the air.

I was forced to look like this, and I couldn’t stand this kind of prank right after I had reluctantly agreed to become a magical girl.

But there is no feeling in the fist that should have reached Jack. A closer look reveals that the clenched little hand has slipped through Jack’s body.

 

「Stop playing around and get going–ran!」

「…I’m coming!」

 

I glare at Jack, who gives me a reproachful look and urges me to move on.

This guy doesn’t seem to have any substance. So trying to physically attack him is futile. It pisses me off, but there’s no point in goofing around with something that doesn’t make sense. Now is the time to lay low.

 

「Transfer coordinates: Magical World, Magic Archives.」

「Eh, Hu– Wai—!?」

 

At the same time Jack was chanting something, several magic circles overlapped my body and I began to float in the air as if in water.

No matter how hard I struggled, I would just flip over in mid-air. The fear of not being grounded tightens my chest.

 

How many seconds had passed since I involuntarily closed my eyes?　When I opened my eyes, I was surrounded by many bookshelves. At the same time I recognized it, the magic circle shattered and my body was slowly lowered to the ground.

 

「Here we are, The Archives.」

 

There are bookshelves as far as the eye can see. There are thick books without any space between them. If this were not a library, it would be a fraud.

 

「…This is spacious.」

 

It is difficult to describe well how big it is, but it looks bigger than the local library I had visited as a child. It was a small, compact library, but it was still much bigger than the school library, and even felt like a maze to me when I was a small child.

 

As I walked around the stacks, I saw that there were books missing in some places. It appears that the bookshelves are not completely filled.

 

「There is only one magic in this world that can be given to a magical girl–ran! No one can choose the magic that someone else has chosen–ran!」

「Uwaah!?」

 

Surprised to suddenly hear Jack’s voice, I looked around, but Jack is not there.

 

「I’m just a voice–ran! I can’t go in the stacks–ran! I can confirm Ryoichi’s sighting from me, so I’ll navigate–ran!」

「Haah… I see then.」

 

I’d say fine, but without an explanation I don’t know anything about this place. In fact, I didn’t even know what was missing from the book.

 

I’m really angry at Jack for what he did and his attitude, but I’ll just have to split it up until it’s all over. Emotionally rebelling against Jack doesn’t do any good.

It’s the same thing I’ve done all my life. Give up and accept that it can’t be helped.

 

「So, what am I supposed to do here?」

「Follow your instincts and pick a book–ran! Every book is written in magic letters that you can’t read anyway–ran! Pick the book you think is best–ran! That’s what makes it magic–ran!」

「It’s a mess…」

 

If I reluctantly accept the idea of becoming a Magical Girl, could this support be changed?

 

But the magic letters or…

 

「It’s true, it was unreadable.」

 

I picked up a book that was nearby and opened it, but the pages were filled with text I had never seen before, and I could not read it at all. When I close the book and look at the cover, I can’t tell what the book is about because it is written in similar handwriting.

「Can you at least tell me what the book is about?」

「Preconceived notions are the natural enemy of magic–ran! Choose by your intuition–ran! Trust yourself–ran!」

 

That being said, I can’t ask for any further explanation.

You’re not just saying random things to escape responsibility, are you?

 

「Okay, I’ll take this one then.」

 

I took a dozen or so minutes to pick up a few books, but honestly I couldn’t tell much difference. So in the end, I went with my gut and chose a book with a thicker, lighter yellow-green cover than the others. It was because I felt that the color, texture, etc. were somehow nice, and for no better reason than that.

 

「!!?」

 

The book I have chosen suddenly starts to shine and the pages roll up by themselves. The brilliance was at its greatest when the last page was closed, so dazzling that it was impossible to keep one’s eyes open.

When the light subsided and I opened my eyes, the book had disappeared without a trace. The weight that I should have felt in my hands had vanished without my noticing.

 

「Congrats–ran! You got the key that opens the door to the treasury–ran! Now Ryōichi is a magical girl–ran!」

「Haah, first the archives, now the treasury, you say… What do I do this time?」

 

It didn’t take that long, but not knowing what I was being asked to do is surprisingly mentally draining. This is especially true when unexpected events occur, such as a sudden flash of light or disappearance.

The thought of having to go through something like that again makes me sigh.

 

「I’m not going to the treasury–ran! Ryōichi already has the key to turn into a magical girl–ran! You chant the key words, thinking you want to be Magical Girl–ran! The keyword is——」

 

「Blow all of heaven and earth to smithereens!」

 

The words came to my mind faster than Jack could tell me. The moment I thought about transforming into a magical girl, I understood what I needed to chant.

 

As soon as I chant, a raging stormy wind envelops me and converges on my small body. Forcibly restraining and subduing a rampaging child who tries to cling to me and overrun me. I will make them understand.

 

Obey me.

I am your lord.

The master of all winds.

 

I* am——

My** name is——

 

「Magical Girl, Tyrant Sylph***」

 

 

.

 

 

I had returned home from the storeroom before I knew it at the same time I had transformed, and I was relieved to see what I looked like after the transformation.

 

A loose-fitting white vestment-like garment. Pale yellowish-green lines are decorated on the sleeves, hem, and other parts of the garment. In my right hand is a cane as big as I am tall.

This seems to be my costume as a magical girl. It was really good.

 

My concern was how much exposure I would get after the transformation. The magical girl anime that I watched with my sister was aimed at children, so naturally the exposure was low.

However, I occasionally see magical girls for adults on social networking sites and compilation sites. These women are unusually revealing and could be described as lascivious.

 

I was secretly thinking that I would not like it if my appearance after the transformation was that of such a lascivious woman.

I guess this is what they mean when they say it is easier to give birth than to worry. There are very few parts of my body that expose my skin now.

This will save me from embarrassment.

 

Oh, and speaking of embarrassment, it’s good to know that I don’t seem to have to get completely naked in the transformation.

The magical girls I knew were basically naked when they transformed, even though they were enveloped in a mysterious light.

 

The only thing that bugs me is that my hair style changed to twin-tail hair when I transformed.

I don’t think it’s childish, but I’m not going to mention it here, because it would be like a child trying to grow up to be taller than I was to let my hair down every time I transform because of it.

 

「Impressive, Ryōichi–ran! The talent I saw in you–ran!」

「I am not at all happy with that compliment. I mean, what are you praising so much? Is it really that difficult to transform into a magical girl?」

 

If a scout like Jack chooses a girl with talent and wants to make her a magical girl, isn’t it obvious that she can transform into a magical girl?

 

「Every child I scout can be a Magical Girl–ran! Ryōichi’s greatness isn’t that she could become a Magical Girl–ran! The fact that it’s Phase 3, and that it’s your first transformation, is substandard and awesome!」

「Ph–Phase 3? What is that?」

 

I am slightly taken back by Jack, who seems more excited than ever. What in the world is he talking about?

Does that mean there will be Phase 1 and Phase 2? However, I do not feel that phase 3 or whatever it is called.

The keywords naturally came to my mind when I was transforming, though.

 

「In simple terms, Enhanced Form–ran! Ryōichi skipped her initial form, Sylphid, and suddenly transformed into her enhanced form, Tyrant Sylph! This is unheard of–ran!!」
