chapter 87

After school, on my way to the Hotel I sat upon a bench in the forest park and sighed .

“Why did my right eye lose its eyesight?”

I noticed this strange phenomenon just this morning .

My right eye can’t see and my right hand can’t move too .

I did the Magical Girl contract to feel good by killing monsters… And yet, what is this!?

“What happened, Domin!”

I was invited on this path by this stuffed bear toy .

I shouted to the mascot toy that usually was camouflaged in my bag .

“Kishishi… I did say it, didn’t I? Magical girls have prices to be paid . ”

“Certainly now that I remember you said that, but… I didn’t hear about this!”

And at that moment… A middle school student in a blazer uniform appeared before me .

“You are?”

“Morishita Maria . ”

I see… I understood who this person was .

Rather, I knew she was the same existence as me at the moment of confrontation .

“Are you the Magical Girl that manages this town?”

“For the current time, it has become like that . ”

“So, what are you going to do? Are you angry because I snuck in your territory?”

“Well, we do need a lot of monsters . If I consider it from pure interests then you’re unpleasant . ”

I lift my magical stick and get ready up in transformation pose .

“Then, shall we begin killing each other?”

*Furu, furu* she shook her head left and right .

“I came today to you just to give you advice . As a senpai, I have a duty to inform you of the bare minimum to you who doesn’t know anything . ”

“As senpai, you say?”

“Yesterday… there was no need for you to use Burst: Second . In the first place they didn’t seem like enemies . ”

“Aa? There is a possibility of them becoming enemies . So, letting my power out is better . ”

“I don’t have a particular duty to give you advice but… If you’re going to use that fighting style then before long you won’t be able to maintain your sanity . ”

“Haaa?”

“As for me you not being in this hunting ground would be comforting… But either way is fine . ”

“What are you saying?”

“The number of demons is limited . You know nothing of the Magical Girl stick system… Well, if that is so then it might be better like that, but . ”

“Haa? Since earlier what are you saying?”

“Do you think that the Magical Girl power is fun, lyrical, fancy, fantastic and such?”

“I feel refreshed killing monsters! Is there a fun thing such as that?”

“It’s like a game to you . Then that’s a grave mistake . ”

And then, the brat named Morishita Maria faced me and talked in a fed up tone .

“In the west it’s called witches and it’s abhorred, and then in Japan the path of Magical girl is called human shura . ”

While waving her hands behind her back she said like she spat them out .

“I advised you . I have no intention of bothering you who has come butting into someone’s territory more than this . ”

“Talking proudly by looking down on me!”

I raised my magical stick and began releasing power to change .

“Another futile transformation… Have you heard from Domin about the subjugation and transformation cause and effect?”

“As if I know! I don’t like you at all!”

I transform into a Magical Girl and wear my purple clothes .

And then at the same time I finished changing I jumped to Morishita Maria and armed cross her .

All right, I grasped her right hand firmly!

Just like this I’ll drag to the ground… and show her the hell carnival of joints!

“… . Eh?”

She won’t fall .

While holding me entangled in her arm, Morishita Maria didn’t even budge the slightest from the spot .

“You’re really like an amateur . Your grappling techniques are still premised on normal human opponents . With operating from this center of gravity… How are you going to bring down a veteran Magical Girl even before transformation?”

While having an imposing stance Morishita Maria shook her hand and got me off her .

That’s right, without any technique or change in center of gravity, nor covering her body she got me off with just pure strength .

“Haha, is that your normal state…?”

“For Magical Girl’s rank I’m the most prominent… after all . ”

“I see, so this is senpai’s power? In that case—”

And at the same time a darkish purple enveloped me .

“Burst! Magical Girl Second Form!”

Originally the magical clothes gave over a top feeling and now they were becoming even more .

“Haha, now that I become like this I won’t lose to anybody! I’ll hear the screams of your joints… Eh!?”

“… Heart Break . ”

Maria Morishita held a bow and arrow made of a pink aura .

And then, my chest was pierced by an aura arrow .

“It’s like hitting you with the back of the sword, more or less . ” (TN: She saying she held back . )

“Kaha…”

I fell to my knees unsightly .

She probably held back and this is not like the piercing of an arrow but rather like a shock technique .

Just like it’s called Heart Break it hits the heart and obstructs the blood flow and makes it unable to move .

Now that I remember, there was a technique like this also in boxing .

“Did you understand the difference in power?”

Again, she waved her hands behind her back and said to me like she was spitting .

“Don’t meddle more than this . I also won’t chase you if you leave this town . See you . ”

Looking down on me… And top of it you’re holding back!?

I don’t like you! I really don’t like you!

“Magical Girl… Full Burst!”

I was enveloped in a jet black aura and my brain was burning in excitement .

I’m omnipotent or more than that .

My over the top clothing had one by one piece of clothing removed and it could be said I was like half-naked .

While receiving overflowing body in my body I was laughing loudly .

“Hahaha! Amazing! This is the best! This cannot be compared to the earlier speed! Hahaha! Hahaha!” (TN: The kanji for speed were stimulant (e . g . psychoactive drugs like methamphetamine, ritalin, etc . ) but the furigana was speed . )

Morishita Maria opened her eyes wide at this .

And then, she took her Magical stick from her pocket with a pitiful expression .

“Ignorance is a sin . You’re not even noticing that you’re losing your life as a human… Hey, you? Do you know anything about the magical stick?”

“What are you yapping about?”

“Well, you don’t know, do you?”

Maria Morishita puts her left hand on the center core of the magical want that she’s holding in her right hand .

And then, she loads with her thoughts .

*Pako* and the core opens and I was at a loss of words .

“A pentagram…?”

Something tagged with Onmyoudou talismans was taken from the core and Maria Morishita took out the something that was wrapped in talismans .

That which was giving gooey sound effects was…

“An embryo… . ?”

She showed me the pentagram talisman wrapped lump of flesh and she nodded fleetingly .

“This is the Magical Girl’s core . It all started from a girl caused by that over 2000 years ago . This is a chain of a curse . I’ll be grateful if you lay your weapon down . We are not enemies . We’re fellows of the same circumstances . You can continue living even now . If you are interested in listening then here’s your explanation . ”

“Anyhow, I don’t like you!”

“Was it… inevitable?”

A blue aura was enveloping Maria Morishita and then she donned a over-the top bluish frilly clothes .

“I’m full burst . Do you think that you can do something in a normal Magical girl state?”

“I’ve slaughtered over 9,000 monsters . ”

“9,000…”

“That’s why, I am the highest rank after leveling up repeatedly . ”

I received an overwhelming spiritual force with sadness from Maria Morishita and I thought .

—-Perhaps… Did I take on somebody unbelievable as an opponent?

And then Morishita Maria sighed and talked .

“That’s right, according to Domin, I am the strongest Magical Girl and there only few in history…”

And then like spitting she muttered .

“Well then . ”

And then Morishita Maria created a pink bow and arrow and fired the arrow at the speed of Skanda . (TN: Speedy guardian deity, I presume?)

And then I was—-

Side: Morishita Maria

This person wasn’t going to manage it somehow . She couldn’t have stopped it .

Right now, I’m swayed with feelings of guilt .

In the end she can’t do anything even with using Full Burst…

I finished it with the back of the sword at the last minute, but it really was futile .

I was called by a very beautiful black-haired girl when I undid the magical girl transformation .

Her uniform… Onii-chan’s school?

“I see, looks like the favourite is you . ”

“Who are you?”

“I am Abeno Kaguya . For a bit, I’m going to put meddle in your situation . ”

“Japan’s exorcist? If possible it’s better for you to not meddle, though?”

“If possible I want that, too . It’s too troublesome to involve myself with those walking the path of bloodlusting shuras . However, it’s not possible for that . ”

“Practically it’s irrelevant to you . ”

“Personally it doesn’t concern me, but it concerns those of Abeno name . It’s rough having bad ancestors . ”

“Abeno… Abe… I see now . It’s a lawful thing . ”

“Yeah, we have things to talk about . Magical Girl . ”

No, the peerlessly beautiful girl named Abe continued talking .

“… Hey, Genocider?”
