Leisure Chapter — What happened to a certain fairy • Episode Rest–1
Translated by KaiesV

These episodes before the Final Chapter, are solely dedicated to the 2nd most-hated fairy, Jack. Even though Jack was already memory-wiped by Earth, there are still things remained that is in Jack’s character. This is basically his redemption arc, although some people may disagree with my statement(I’m fine to hear that). I hope you enjoy reading the series, thank you.
Demigod, a master sorcerer so superior that he transcends human knowledge. We fairies are the beings created to smoothly manage and operate the Magical Girl system created by the Demigod–ran!
My name is Jack! I am a newborn, low-ranking scout and navigator fairy–ran! My job is to find talented girls from among the pre-adult girls and recruit them to become Magical Girls, and to take care of them for a while after they are successfully recruited and new Magical Girls are born–ran!
The low rank represents the rank of the fairy–ran! They start out at a low rank and move up to medium and high ranks by gaining sufficient experience and producing reasonable results and passing the highest fairy screening–ran! The higher the rating, the more you can do and the wider the range of magical tools you can purchase, making it easier to scout for and support Magical Girls–ran! The fairies collectively say it increases their authority–ran!
I was just born and have no experience or achievements, so it will take time for me to be promoted, but my goal is to definitely rise to the rank of high fairy one day and make a Magical Girl who is talented enough to become a Witch, who can protect this world–ran! I would do anything to protect the world–ran!
My memorable first assignment was to a rural area in the west called Seri Town. I came here as soon as I received my resignation, but the population is not that large, and according to the data, the incidence of Diests appearance is also low–ran. Maybe it doesn’t help that I’m a peppy newcomer, but this is going to make it hard for me to get any results–ran.
It stands to reason that the larger the population, the more likely it is to find talented kids–ran. And if the number of distros that occur is low, it is hard for the Magical Girls to gain experience and they don’t grow up as fast–ran.
Dare we recruit a lot of Magical Girls for money and make them fight for territory–ran? Then even a slightly less talented child might be able to make it to Phase 2–ran. Or make a few Magical Girls at random, and while those girls are buying time, take your time to look for talented girls–ran?
Err, no, not that–ran. I was so preoccupied with what was ahead that I had not yet grasped the current situation–ran. Let’s see, according to the data from the main office, there is only one Magical Girl in Seri Town so far, a Magical Girl in a vehicle that took a long time to reach Phase 2–ran. She will be retiring soon as she comes of age and there is an urgent need to recruit new Magical Girls, ran.
I’m not sure about having only one Magical Girl in case of emergency, but Phase 2 is a little more secure–ran. I will find as much talent as possible before this girl retires–ran. Specific dates for retirement are… August 25th–ran? Today is, August 26th……
Eeehhhh～～～～～?? Yesterday–ran?? She already retired yesterday–ran!? What is the previous fairy doing–ran!? Why aren’t you recruiting new Magical Girls–ran!? Where are they now and what are they doing–ran!? Lost in battle!? Protecting a Magical Girl!? What are you doing–ran!? What’s the point of protecting a Magical Girl who is about to retire–ran!? At least wait until a new Magical Girl is born–ran!? Why can’t you see that level of detail–ran!? That’s some level of incompetence–ran!!
…Calm down–ran, I got a little confused by the unexpected situation–ran. What’s not here is not here, and there’s no point in saying this or that now–ran. At any rate, I need to recruit Magical Girls as soon as possible before the Diest–ran. We can’t afford to be extravagant–ran. I would have preferred a girl who could definitely make it to Phase 2, but even a girl who could make it if she put in the effort would be fine for the time being–ran.
——Diest Occurrence detected. District D, Seri Town. Grade, Common.
——Repeat. Diest Occurrence detected. District D, Seri Town. Grade, Common.
The alarm from the Main Office is heard directly in my head–ran.
Worst timing ever–ran. Currently there are no Magical Girls in Seri Town–ran. I’m sure the Magical Bureau knows this, and I’m sure they’ve notified neighboring Magical Girls, but since the reward is so low for the Common-class, Magical Girls who are looking for money probably won’t come–ran. Besides, the distance between us and them would make the transition take a long time–ran. Even if they came, I don’t know if they would make it in time for the Diest to invade reality–ran.
Ah— ugh, it’s the worst–ran! I need a new Magical Girl now–ran!! I will make the most talented girl around here a Magical Girl–ran!
Using a simple sonar to look for talented children in a 1km radius around the area–ran. If I was a higher grade fairy, I can use a wider range of sonar, but this is how it works at lower ranks–ran. And this sonar only gives me a pretty rough idea–ran. How much talent is actually present can only be determined by looking directly at it with the sensors in the fairy’s eyes–ran.
It is fortunate that it’s August, which means summer vacation–ran. I had multiple hits of unstable, innocent girls who qualified to become Magical Girls, before they became adults–ran. I observe the house of the child who had the greatest response from outside–ran.
It was a two-story house, and apparently the child’s room is upstairs–ran. And judging by the heat source sensing response, she is alone in the room now–ran. Lucky–ran. Recognition inhibition makes me invisible to anyone but the target of the solicitation, but it’s still hard to solicit them when they are with their parents–ran.
Stick to the window of the child’s room and use simple telekinetic magic to open the lock–ran. I feel like a thief–ran. It’s said that once you become a medium fairy, you gain the authority to penetrate objects, so you can slip through walls and get into anywhere without having to go through all this trouble–ran. I understand that there is a cost issue, but I would like to see such useful authority for the low fairies–ran.
「Hiiiee!! A–A pumpkin ghost…!?」
「Nice to meet you–ran! My name is Jack, the pumpkin fairy–ran!」
She seemed suspicious that the window opened by itself, a little girl who was painting something in her room looked up at the window, noticed me, and jumped out with a little scream–ran. I don’t think I look that scary, but do I look ghostly–ran? At any rate, I can’t let her get away with it here, so I’ll start by introducing myself in a friendly manner–ran.
「Fairy…? Are you not a ghost…?」
「I’m not a ghost—ran! I’m not a single bit scary at all–ran! Magical Jewel Girls have fairies–ran! Just like that one–ran!」
「Eh…? You’re a Majuga fairy…?」
「Something like that–ran!」
Magical Jewel Girls is an anime for girls that airs on Sunday mornings–ran. It was mentioned in the material that when recruiting younger children, it is easy to catch them by citing this kind of Magical Girl anime–ran. If I had to guess from her appearance, the child in front of me is probably early elementary school age–ran? I was skeptical about how effective it would be, but the fact that the child in front of me no longer looked frightened made me believe that it was very effective–ran. Once this happened, it was a quick story–ran.
「I am here to make you a Magical Girl–ran!! There is a crisis in this town right now–ran!! I want you to become a Magical Girl and protect this town–ran!!」
If I call out to her with words similar to those used in anime, the dreamy children will nod their heads without thinking too much about it–ran. I don’t have any experience with it myself yet, but the data I’ve accumulated over the years give me that answer–ran.
「To protect… from what…? I can’t do that… I, to be like that…」
Apparently, she was not a dreamy, fearful child–ran. Rather, in contrast, she was a timid and unsure of herself–ran. These types of girls aren’t really suited to be Magical Girls, but now is not the time to worry about such trivialities–ran!
「You can do it–ran! You are a special, chosen child who deserves to become a Magical Girl–ran! There is no need to be afraid–ran! The magic will make you stronger–ran!! Plus I will support you! Once again–ran, I want you to protect this town together with me–ran!」
「Together…?」
「That’s right–ran! You and I, together, will protect this town–ran!」
「Th–Then… If I become a Magical Girl, if I can protect the town…, will you be my friend…?」
「Naturally–ran! Uhh, what’s your name–ran?」
「Takanami, Misuzu.」
「Then, Misuzu! You and I are friends now–ran!!」
Friends, I don’t know how much that means to this girl, but it’s a small price to pay to be a Magical Girl just to say we’re friends–ran.
「…! O–Okay… I, will do it. I’ll be a Magical Girl. It’s what my friend asked me to do…」
Easy–ran. Recruiting Magical Girls is easier than I thought–ran.
「Thank you–ran! We don’t have much time left, so I’ll skip the details for now–ran! I’m going to ask you to go to the Treasury to get your magical powers–ran! The book you choose there will give you the key to use your magical powers–ran!」
「E–Eh? What do you——」
「No time to explain–ran! Transfer coordinates: Magical World, Magic Library.」
I ignored Misuzu’s words, who seemed to be confused, and forcefully transferred her to the storeroom–ran. Now that we’ve gotten her agreement to become a Magical Girl, it’s all ours–ran.
Even as we do this, the Diests must be looking for a breach to invade reality from the Deception World–ran.
A Diest that is a newcomer to the Common-class is not the first one to lose–ran. So, as I told Misuzu, all the detailed explanations can wait–ran. It doesn’t matter anyway, because fear and confusion will be suppressed if we go out to the field and confront them directly–ran. Anyway, the top priority now is to make Misuzu a Magical Girl and send her to the Deception World–ran.
