「Aww!」
Misuzu, whose body had been huddled in the air under the influence of the transfer magic, was thrown to the floor of the storeroom and hit her back at the same time as the transfer was completed–ran.
「So many books…」
「Choose one book that you like there–ran! That will be your magic–ran!」
I give the bare minimum of advice to Misuzu, who is rubbing her aching back and looking around anxiously–ran. If it were true, I would explain a little more carefully, but it’s an emergency situation–ran. Besides, it doesn’t matter if I explain about this archive or not, it won’t matter in the future–ran.
「But I can’t read it, you know?」
「Don’t worry about what’s inside because it’s written in magic letters–ran! Follow your intuition and choose–ran!」
「How can I choose one, even if I am suddenly told such a thing…」
「There is no more time–ran! Choose whatever you want, choose it quickly–ran!」
「Uhhh, what I will choose…?」
I was going to hurry her up and get her to decide quickly, but Misuzu seems to be an indecisive and undecisive girl. She just keeps picking up some books, looking at them and putting them back, but she never decides–ran.
「Misuzu! If this continues, the town will be damaged–ran! Then they might get rid of me too–ran!! I hope you will decide to help your friend–ran!!」
It’s a lie–ran. It seems that real damage has been done in the past, but there is no record of fairies receiving serious punishment at that time–ran. Well, even if there is such a disposition, if it leads to protecting the world, I’m fine with it–ran. But only if it is the result of doing the best I can, after doing everything I can–ran. I can’t just sit around here moping before I do anything.
「…! Yeah, that’s right. We don’t have time for this. Okay, I’ll take this one.」
Misuzu, who had looked anxious and lost, not knowing what to do until then, opened the book she was now holding in her hand and said so–ran. I didn’t know the word “friend” could be so useful–ran. I’ll report it to the main office and leave the data–ran. Other fairies can also refer to it–ran.
「W–Wah, what, sudde——」
As if primed by Misuzu’s words, the book opened in her hand emitted a dazzling light and the pages began to roll out on their own–ran. And so the brilliant light faded little by little as the last page was closed–ran.
「Now, Misuzu! Now you know–ran! How to use your powers! Your wish to become a Magical Girl–ran! That’s your watchword–ran!」
「Hmm, I got it, Jack-kun. This is, my—— D–Dance…!」
In response to the keyword of her trembling voice, the vision of a school of small fish covers Misuzu’s body in a spherical enveloping manner–ran. It is like sardines swimming in great numbers at an aquarium or something–ran.
This is a relief for a moment–ran. Transforming into a Magical Girl will suppress the fear and anxiety about fighting Diests–ran. Misuzu is a timid-looking girl, but as long as she transforms, she is not too scared to fight–ran. Since her opponent is a Common-class, she doesn’t have to worry about losing, and she will be quickly transitioned–ran.
「Transfer coordinates: Deception World, Seri Town District D」
.
「Magical Girl, Fisher Blue…!」
At the same time as the transition was completed, Misuzu transformed into a magical girl, sprinkling the effect of a school of small fish and splashing water–ran. She was dressed in a dark blue costume, a color reminiscent of the deep blue sea, or group blue, and her black hair was pulled into a ponytail–ran.
「Here we go–ran, Fisher Blue! We’ll take out our enemies, the Diests–ran!」
「The D–Diest is that black doggy thing…? No, more than a doggy, it’s like a wolf…?」
「Correct–ran! They are monsters crawling out of the distortion of the world! They are monsters that do an endearment to mankind–ran!」
This time, the Common-class Diest is a dog or wolf about the size of a large dog. I can’t tell which strain is which because it consists of a pitch black haze and I can’t make out the details, but it doesn’t matter–ran. It doesn’t make much difference–ran.
「Gaaaaaaaahhhhh——!!!」
「H–Hieee!? I can’t do it after all… I’ve never been in a fight before, but to beat this up…」
「!? What do you mean–ran? Emotional suppression… is working–ran? Then, you’re saying this after being suppressed–ran?」
It depends on what people are afraid of and to what degree, so perhaps such a possibility is not impossible–ran. But I wasn’t taught that and it wasn’t in the database–ran! Does that mean Misuzu is specially scared–ran!?
…Thinking about it, Misuzu didn’t want to be a Magical Girl at first–ran. Maybe those overly scared kids who are more than normal don’t even want to become a Magical Girl in the first place–ran. In this case, she was forced half-heartedly to give her consent, and for some reason the word “friend” stuck with Misuzu for me, and the feelings stirred up by that word temporarily outweighed her fear and anxiety about the unknown, so I turned an outlandish fear into a Magical Girl when it should not have been possible–ran! This girl would have died of fear if she didn’t have emotional restraint, wouldn’t she–ran? She’s heckling under the pressure of a Common-class Diest, her legs are shaking like a fawn, and she’s already starting to cry–ran… She must have had the most talent in that neighborhood, but I’m sure her personality wasn’t the best suited for it–ran. She was the wrong girl to be a Magical Girl–ran…
But it’s too late to say that now–ran! She’s a Magical Girl and she will be asked to fight–ran! No matter how scared she is and how unsuited she is to fighting, the magic power she has acquired is real–ran!!
「Uwaaaahhh!?! Don’t come, don’t cooooommeee!?」
「Fisher Blue! Cast your first spell–ran!!」
It doesn’t matter that she’s never been in a fight–ran! Because Magical Girls fight with magic–ran! And the power of magic is not affected by emotions–ran! No matter how timid, indecisive, or cowardly you are, the magic you invoke is inherently powerful–ran!
「School — Battlefish!!!!!!」
Fisher Blue chanted frantically in an inverted voice as she turned her back on the wolf-shaped Diest that was quickly approaching her on the ground and fled with a whimper–ran. The Diest had closed the distance with Fisher Blue just one more step, but in the end, its sharp fangs and claws never reached her–ran. A huge number of small fish, too numerous to count, appeared out of the void and swarmed over the Diest, devouring the haze that made up its body–ran. A momentary event, a true blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment–ran. But that by no means which implied that Fisher Blue is strong–ran. A Common-class Diests are just a small fishes that a seasoned Magical Girl can make disappear unilaterally with her enhanced physical abilities, without the need to use magic.
「H–Huh…? That wolf earlier…? Did the fishies kill them? That’s great!」
Fisher Blue, perhaps suspicious that she no longer heard Diest’s footsteps, turned around and stopped with a dumb look on her face, scurried around anxiously, and then slumped down as if relieved when she finally realized that her magic had won.
…I’m really glad that her first magic was an autonomous Combat-type Summoning Magic–ran. If it had been a normal type of fighting by controlling magic by herself, she might not have been able to win even against an Common-class–ran.
「You did well–ran, Fisher Blue! Thanks to you, the town is safe–ran.」
「…! I see, I, I did it right… Ehe, ehehe, okay, thanks to me…」
「I hope you continue to do well–ran.」
To be honest, the fight was not at all promising, but I would lose my motivation if I were to say no here–ran. So I’ll give her a compliment–ran. Well, we’ve bought ourselves some time and will look for more talented kids before the next Diests shows up–ran. If I find them, they will be put to use, and if I don’t find them, she will be well wrapped up in a fight, like this time–ran.
