Chapter 209
It does seem quite romantic.
They took many photos as souvenirs.
In the end, Teacher Haihara even treated her to ice cream and barbecue.
Is it a little strange to eat ice cream at the end of autumn?
In Kirishima Ai's memory, her own mother would never buy her ice cream in such cold weather, but Teacher Haihara would.
However, in the end, Kirishima Ai simply thought the ice cream was delicious.
After returning to the hotel, Kirishima Ai did some homework while Teacher Haihara continued soaking in the hot spring.
While doing her homework, Kirishima Ai began to think back on the day's events.
Kirishima Ai had a very special day.
How should I put it? Apart from soaking in a hot spring with her teacher, everything else she did seemed to be very ordinary things with her family, like playing at an amusement park, eating ice cream, and strolling through a food street.
But if you really think about it carefully, her mother won't spend the weekend with her.
It hasn't happened since she separated from her sister.
As a result, after she entered high school, the first person to go out with her was Teacher Haihara.
While feeling lost, Kirishima Ai also felt a sense of happiness.
"Kirishima, is it a bit cold inside? Should we close the door?"
Kirishima Ai suddenly heard Teacher Haihara's voice.
She looked at Haihara in the hot spring.
The bathtub is right outside the hotel room, separated by a glass door, which is currently open. Normally, this would allow some air conditioning to flow in, but Kirishima Ai seems fine.
"It's quite warm inside, so it's fine to leave it on."
To be honest, it's actually a bit cold.
However, Kirishima Ai didn't want the glass door closed, because that would prevent her from talking to Haihara whenever she wanted, and she would feel like she had lost contact with her.
After exhaling a puff of white breath, Kirishima Ai wanted to find a topic to talk about:
"Speaking of which, isn't winter approaching soon?"
She wasn't quite sure when winter officially began, but with the weather getting so cold these past few days, she figured it must be getting closer.
As an adult, Teacher Haihara might know.
"Probably in a while longer."
As she spoke, Teacher Haihara gently raised her arm and wiped it with water in the bathtub before looking at the ring on her hand.
In other words, neither today nor tomorrow.
Kirishima Ai pondered for a moment, then put down her pen and looked outside at the night sky.
It doesn't look like it's going to snow.
However, the teacher was as white as snow.
"... The snow will be even later, won't it?"
Kirishima Ai wasn't secretly watching her teacher soaking in the hot spring while looking at the snow outside the window.
At that moment, Haihara slightly raised her head:
"So you mean you want to see snow?"
It definitely snows in Maple Plain City, and it snows heavily.
However, it's still a little while before it snows.
Kirishima Ai paused for a moment, then looked a little embarrassed. She lowered her head and poked her notebook again with the tip of her pencil.
"A little."
"So."
Haihara responded casually.
After that, the two chatted for a while, but because Kirishima usually had a very regular schedule, she got a little sleepy as the night deepened.
Haihara also felt she had soaked long enough.
After she got out of the bath and changed her clothes, Kirishima Ai was already dozing off at the small table.
This reminded Haihara of how Kirishima Ai doze off in class.
She wouldn't care if it were other students.
However, Kirishima Ai is an exception.
As night deepened, Haihara carried Kirishima Ai to the made-up bed.
The little girl is sleeping soundly.
Haihara was very envious of the children's sleep quality.
Upon seeing Kirishima Ai asleep on the pillow, Haihara accidentally touched the girl's face with her hand, and the sleeping girl immediately let out an endearing soft moan.
As mentioned before, Haihara thinks Kirishima's sleeping face is cute.
She really wanted to steal a kiss from Kirishima Ai while she was asleep.
For such a lonely girl who longed to be loved, Haihara did indeed feel a touch of maternal instinct.
However, in the end, she only pinched the little girl's cheek:
"You want to see snow, don't you...?"
Haihara looked down at her, but after a while, she stopped looking at Kirishima Ai and began to think about what Kirishima Ai had just said about wanting to see snow.
Maple Plain City gets quite a lot of snow every year.
However, for Haihara, it would have been a little less meaningful if it weren't for the fact that Kirishima Ai seen snow during her trip.
At this moment, Haihara's first thought would naturally be the power of Magic girls.
Magic girls possess incredibly versatile powers.
It not only has the power to easily tear apart steel and kick down buildings, but it can also repair damaged streets; in other words, it has the power to change the environment.
Now that she has retrieved her Fallen Heaven, Haihara can become a true Magic girl.
Moreover, although she hasn't tried it yet, she currently has two forms: Bird System and Lunar.
As the name suggests, the Lunar excels at Magic that alters the weather.
However, to be honest, Haihara doesn't want to transform into her Lunar form.
As we all know, after becoming Magic girl, the person's personality will change to some extent. It's not just about making a person more courageous, but also about being influenced by the properties of the Magic Crystal itself.
In the Moon-Type Magic girls, Haihara has only ever met Roland.
But...
"Let's give it a try."
Now, all of Haihara's Transformation Crystal are Devil King Crystal.
If placed directly on the Fallen Heaven, it would likely shatter under Fallen Heaven pressure.
But with the enhancement items her beloved girlfriend made for her, the power that Fallen Heaven can bear will be expanded.
After stepping outside, Haihara took out a dark purple, crescent-shaped Crystal.
I really hope this transformation won't be so noisy.
"--The Night of Doom."
When the quiet, cold voice of Witch emerged in the night, the sky subtly changed.
In the deep black night, like countless eyes opening, twinkling stars appeared on the originally monotonous canvas, beginning to adorn the distant city in the dead of night.
The cold moon, nestled within the Milky Way, appeared exceptionally dazzling.
The haze in the sky gradually gathered, and the white steam around the hot spring grew thicker.
The air got a little colder.
Within the mist of transformation, Haihara's new Witch form also appeared under the deep starry night.
The figure was dressed in a women's gown in a black and dark purple hue, with bare shoulders and a slender neck and long arms wrapped in black gauze.
After the dress supported her chest, the silk fabric draped to the sides, and then the black gauze only covered her waist and abdomen, revealing her fair and alluring navel and upper abdomen.
Besides, the figure seemed much smaller than the mature woman she originally appeared to be.
Pale, cold skin was faintly visible through the intricately lace-trimmed black stockings.
At the end, she wore high-heeled boots that seemed incongruous with her youthful appearance.
"As expected... I'm still not quite used to this."
The Witch, under the cover of night, sounded much younger than before.
Yes, now, appearing under the Moonlit is a young woman exuding a sexiness and beauty that belies her appearance.
Beneath her skirt, there was a heart-shaped tail that swayed constantly, like that of a succubus.
Perhaps it's because, like Dark Feather, she used Fallen Heaven to transform.
However, hers was clearly longer, more mature, and more erotic.
The girl had a similar indifferent expression to Haihara.
However, after transforming, her tail kept wagging as she curiously looked at the sleeping Kirishima, her tail occasionally curling into a heart shape.
--Tonight, Magic girl Lily makes her appearance.
Chapter Sixteen: Snowy Night
More dazzling than the late moon are the city lights in the distance, those superficial Neon obscuring the Universe hidden behind the night, leaving people to spend the nights without starlight, one after another.
This otherwise dull evening became slightly different.
One by one, tiny white dots of light flickered in the night sky, some faint, some brilliant, like spirits gazing at the earth from the darkness, mysterious and distant.
Soon after, as if hearing a distant call, the stars began to shift and twinkle, appearing and disappearing in the darkness.
The skies above the entire city have also changed.
Gray snow clouds began to cover the sky, gathering in clusters, but only remaining over the distant mountains.
Silver stars, like teardrops, fell from the sky, piercing through the gray clouds, and after passing through them once more, they turned into wispy snowflakes.
Magic girls possess the power to create miracles.
Even after Haihara transforms into a Magic girl, she can still create an early snowfall like this.
Haihara remembers that hundreds of years ago, that Witch also created miracles in the same way.
It's like rain falling, irrigating land that has been parched for a long time.
Or perhaps it will part the clouds and let the warm sun shine again on the cold village.
After using the Magic of miracles, Kirishima Ai will probably see the first snow of winter tomorrow morning.
To prevent the snow from arriving too early and affecting other nearby areas, Haihara, unusually, used her Magic girl powers to cover the fields and other areas.
I really don't know why she's so skilled.
As snowflakes began to fall near the hot spring, Haihara glanced at the steaming bath, let out a soft sigh, and suddenly felt a strong urge to soak in the hot spring again.
To avoid disturbing Problem Child sleep, I'll go soak in the public bath area later.
However, on the other hand...
"After transforming, did she become this kind of little girl?"
Under the cover of night, a Witch dressed in an elaborate black gown swished her tail, gazing at her body that had become youthful and childlike.
Clearly, Haihara has now become a young girl.
