Chapter 1 — Blow all of heaven and earth to smithereens! • Episode 1-4 • Witch ② ☆

Translated by KaiesV

Edited by KaiesV

A pitch-black bee, as big as a five-passenger car, is flying across the sky. The unpleasant rattle of feathers, a physiological terror, rings through the deception world with a bombastic sound, which itself already seems to be an attack of its own.

「———!」

「What is it?」

The Magical Girl who brought me here, Rabbitfoot, a.k.a. The Rabbit Witch, is complaining loudly, but I can’t hear her at all because the sound of her wings are too loud.

It’s so loud, so loud, so loud! I’ll let you start with whatever you want.

「Tri-Tornado Mixer.」(TN : Scraping Tornado, Triple)

It is not a newly learned magic, but a magic that can be applied and used through familiarity with how to handle existing magic, and that is the trifecta.

The effect is quite simple: it is a magic that increases the number of tornado mixers to three and manipulates each one individually.

This Giant Bee-type Diest is a new strain of swarming Diest in which all individuals together are a single entity. I beat the same type once before.

The class is a Marquis, but that’s the whole story, and one of them is probably a Baron class at best.

The tri-tornado mixers are not yet at the level of being able to control all tornadoes at will, but with so many of them, they can take down a significant number of Diests just by using magic at random. One after another, the Diests are swallowed and annihilated by the tornadoes, which have an absurd trajectory like a dragon shaking its head.

The magical effects do not stop there. The tornado greatly disrupted the airflow, and although it did not hit the area directly, the Diests that passed nearby crashed one after another. I was just hoping that this would be the case at best, but I never thought it would work out this well, but I am lucky.

As was the case with the monster bird I fought before, I seem to be quite compatible with Diests who mainly fight in the air.

「Rabbitfoot-san! I’d like to ask about those fallen Diests.」

「Hah!? You’re a cheeky little brat to expect me to clean up after you! Let’s do this!」

Which one of us is the cocky little brat…

I should say that she is indeed called a witch. Rabbitfoot-san, who started running with tremendous speed, kicked off the Diest that fell to the ground as if to stomp on it, then moved to another Diest with her stomp and crushed it, and repeated the action to make it disappear more and more. It was like a pinball.

The sky, which had been painted black, gradually regains its beautiful blue color, and the number of Diests on the ground is decreasing rapidly.

I’m glad it looks like it’s going to be safe, but why am I doing this in the first place?

I really wanted to find out how to return to my original form in the magical world and about Jack’s absolution…

Time goes back a little bit.



Hmmm, this store is here and that store is across the street, so my current location is here, right? So if I walk this way, it should be right here… huh? I was back to the same place again.

「Where is this place…?」

After enjoying takoyaki, chocolate bananas, and many other things in addition to meat skewers, I was walking toward the magic bureau, but it seems I got completely lost.

I have a map of this magical world in the Magiphone feature, but I can’t seem to figure out how to see the map. I am not sure where I am and in which direction I am walking, because this map does not seem to indicate my current location. Was there no GPS function?

I can’t complain about the tools… I don’t like the idea, but I’ll just have to rely on the map a little more and ask someone if it doesn’t look like it’s going to work.

「Erm, north is up, east is right…」

「Hey! Get out of my way!」

「Eh?」

I was staring at the magiphone in my hand, checking the map, when I heard a girl’s voice overhead that sounded impatient.

I couldn’t react quickly enough and tried to look up at the sky, but something came down from above and pinned me down.

「Ouch~! Hey, you! Get out of the way when I tell you to get out of the way!! I’m really not having a lucky day! It’s really the worst! They’ll never get in contact with me!」

「…I apologize for not looking ahead, but falling from the sky is pretty insane.」

It is a rabbit-eared girl with white hair and red eyes who is riding on me, looking down on me and shouting curses at me. Her eyes are cheeky and upturned, and she wears a pale orange and white apron dress with ruffles. Does this mean that she is a magical rabbit girl?

There was not much pain, probably because she was in a transformed state. I think it is a lie that this girl also said she was in pain.

「Shaddup! Don’t you dare talk back to me! Do you know who I am?」

「……? Are you famous?」

I stare at the girl while she’s underneath me, but I don’t recognize her. I mean, I hardly know anything about other magical girls to begin with, so even if they were famous, how would I know?

If she was so confident that she know so much and deserve to know so much, could it be that she was a witch?

「Haah!!? So you’re the new girl, huh!? Or perhaps you’re a mole! I can’t believe you don’t know who Rabbitfoot is! I’ve been called the Rabbit Witch by some!」

「Rabbit Foot. Is it a good luck charm?」

On the other hand, you said earlier that you haven’t had any luck.

I mean, how long is he going to stay riding me? I wish you would get out of my way.

「You’re strangely calm! You’re so cheeky for such a little girl!」

Rabbitfoot-san, who finally got up and moved away from me, looked at me as she got up and said that.

In terms of height, I have a feeling we are not much different.

「…I wonder if it’s fate. It’s impossible for me to be unlucky.」

「What did you say?」

「Nothing sort of. But more importantly, do you have access to your special weapons yet?」

「Special weapons…? Ahh, I can access it.」

I didn’t know what it meant at the moment I was asked, but I immediately remembered. It’s the big cane that I usually use.

Oh, by the way, Jack mentioned that I will be able to use a special weapon when I get to Phase 2. I had completely forgotten about this great cane since I had been able to use it from the beginning.

「Why does that matter?」

Maybe it was because this is the home of Magical Girls, or maybe it was because I thought I would never see this Rabbitfoot-san again in the future, I am not sure why, but for some reason I continued to speak even though I would normally have ignored the situation and run away.

And I soon came to regret my decision not to terminate the conversation. I should have just walked away.

「Just as well. Follow me.」

「Eh!? Wai—, let me—, uwaaaaaaahhhh!!」

Suddenly, I was forcibly lifted up like a princess, and without time to complain, Rabbitfoot-san jumped up and down. It is not a magic of flight, but a simple leap that makes use of physical ability, and the body that has been lifted all the way up into the air is now falling at high speed.

I usually fly in the air fighting Diest, but that is a totally different story from this one. A free fall that I could not control by my own will. I felt my life was in danger and unintentionally used magic.

「Wind Gripping Arm Wings!!」

The magic seemed to work on Rabbitfoot-san, who was holding me, and our falling bodies came to a stop in mid-air.

「Hah!? What the hell did you do?」

「That should be my line!! What are you doing out of the blue!?」

「Shut your yapping mouth! This is why I hate dealing with brats!」

「You’re also a brat, you know!」

「You’re the one who’s brat here! And, I can’t believe I’m talking about this! If you can fly, just keep flying straight! We’re going to the Magic Bureau!」

「…You’ll have to explain that to me later.」

Rabbitfoot-san was uncanny. I could tell by her face that there was a serious reason why she had to hurry to the Magic Bureau. And, coincidentally, my destination is also the Magic Bureau. It is true that bickering is not an option, and here I, as the adult here, have decided to be the adult and listen to what she have to say.

Flying straight at top speed, it took only a dozen minutes to reach the magic Bureau. It’s not easy to find it from the sky at such a distance. I’ll have to keep the geography of this area in mind later.

「I’ll explain it to you, but Marquis Class Diest are appearing in Hokkaido. The local Magical Girls are working on it, but they can only slow it down. That’s why we’re going to help them with long-distance transfer. You can respect me for being so kind-hearted, can’t you?」

「That’s fine and admirable, but it’s none of my business, is it? Why did you bring me here?」

I was going to bring Rabbitfoot-san to the Magic Bureau and say goodbye to her there, but she grabbed my arm tightly and dragged me away. This person is quite strong despite her appearance.

「More is better than less. Phase 2 is better than nothing, so be as useful as you can be. Then I’ll forgive you for being cocky.」

「Why am I…」

I guess I could seriously shake her off and run away, but it would be troublesome to be spotted and chased around afterwards. Let’s cooperate with her maturely here and quietly escape when it’s over.

Besides, come to think of it, it’s not every day I run into a Marquis Class Diest. Not so bad if you consider it a points earner.

「Rabbitfoot! Ready for a long-range transfer?」

「I’m prepped~ Oh, what about that girl over there?」

In the room where I was brought to by Rabbitfoot in the elevator, there were various machines, and several cat people were tapping on the keyboard, which seemed to be the control panel.

The most furry cat person monitoring the monitor looks at me curiously.

「I’m taking her with me.」

「You can’t do that~ Only witches can use the devices~」

「Shaddup! You don’t want fewer witches, do you?! I heard there’s only one Phase 2 on site! This is insurance, insurance!」

The cat person, who had a troubled look on his face, suddenly began to stare at my whole body as if he had noticed something.

「You, perhaps you’re the magical girl that Jack is currently in charge of?」

「If you mean the pumpkin ghost, then yes.」

「Ahh, then~ it’s fine~」

「Don’t start off with the obvious! Hmph!」

I am not sure, but it seems we have come to an agreement that I too can use long-distance transfer magical tools. I don’t really feel it, but it seems that I am a witch, and that cat person seemed to know that.

「Let’s move now!!」

We ended up fighting together without introducing ourselves, and as you can see, the result is that we are back to the beginning.
