Chapter 261

"Therefore, I think I may have seen something incredible before I lost consciousness."

She often recalls that scene in her dreams.

Beside the woman shrouded in mist, floats an unusual Scythe.

The Scythe was entirely dark black, yet it was adorned with eerie green patterns.

It possesses extremely distinctive Magic Armament characteristics, and also exudes the aura of four types of Magic Power: flowers, birds, wind, and moon.

She felt that the Scythe resembled the Magic Armament she knew.

What do you mean?

Takanashi sensed that Cangyue Yuri sounded very serious.

Although what she heard most often was earnest barking.

"Takanashi- san, do you remember when you were initially sent to Earth as a Magic girl from R'lyeh?"

Cangyue Yuri and Takanashi are both Magic girls who were once assigned to go to Earth to carry out a certain mission.

Although it was Takanashi who arrived here last.

But Cangyue Yuri had also heard about that mission.

Takanashi initially had her eyes slightly lowered, but then, after remembering what Cangyue Yuri was referring to, she paused for a moment.

"You mean... you saw that back then?"

When Takanashi first arrived on Earth, he did remember being assigned a mission.

However, she didn't take it seriously at the time.

Because the content was about finding the long-lost, final Magic Armament belonging to the Overlord.

But generally speaking, who would assign this kind of task to a Magic girl apprentice?

She thought Dean Roland was just teasing her.

So, is this something that might actually be for real?

"..."

However, if what Cangyue Yuri said is true, then Cangyue Yuri's current situation is not entirely incomprehensible.

After all, with the power left behind by that Overlord, doing such a thing would not be difficult at all.

Seeing that Takanashi remained silent, Cangyue Yuri continued:

"However, I can't be completely sure right now."

It seems these Magic girls will have to work overtime again.

Not only are there unknown forces and unknown enemies, but there's also the possibility that the enemy has already acquired the Overlord's Magic Armament.

Perhaps the recent emergence of so many Serpent System Monster is related to this.

After thinking hard, Takanashi gave up.

She relaxed her shoulders and stared blankly at the wall, putting all these complicated matters aside for the time being.

Then, the girl raised her little pink fists and pounded wildly into the air. Since she wasn't in her transformed form, the punches weren't very sharp; they were just random swings.

"Damn it, I can't stand it, I really want to punch these hiding thugs a couple of times."

The girl said, holding her breath.

After that, Takanashi returned to his usual listless and slacking demeanor, patting his still-unfulfilled stomach.

Speaking of which, did Mom go to cut fruit just now?

Could you tell her to eat lunch earlier?

"Speaking of which, did you come here with any new mission?"

Takanashi suddenly remembered this.

It seems that Dean Roland told her that Cangyue Yuri came here with a new mission and clues?

Judging from Cangyue Yuri's current state, she probably can't do anything for the time being.

Cangyue Yuri slightly raised her neck.

"Yes, it's about Silver Feather."

"About Silver Feather?"

Takanashi hadn't expected to hear about Silver Feather here.

Next, Luna the puppy began to slowly talk about her mission---

"That's right, Takanashi- san. Do you remember how the Magical Girl Silver Feather was created a few months ago...?"

Chapter Sixty-Three: The School Life of Magic Girls

Life is long and boring.

Especially when you are going through a period of teaching at school.

This is basically what the students in this classroom are thinking.

Especially during Chinese language teacher's class.

The teacher who taught this class was named Haihara, and she was their homeroom teacher. Although it was a core subject and no different from other subjects, the teacher's unmotivated explanations made everyone want to sleep.

Fortunately, Teacher Haihara basically doesn't care whether they sleep or not.

Like that pretty and popular hottie in their class, Takanashi Shiori, who was already fast asleep on her desk at this time.

Teacher Haihara continued lecturing as if she were oblivious to her surroundings.

However, even in such a boring Chinese class, there are always enthusiastic students who not only cooperate with the teacher but also frequently raise their hands to ask questions.

That person is...

"Can anyone answer this question?"

This is not a question.

It is a declarative sentence.

Haihara glanced up at the students below the podium.

However, based on her prediction, this time it would probably be that child who raised their hand voluntarily again.

Below the podium, Sakaki Chika, sitting in the first row, was racking her brains over the question Teacher Haihara had just asked, trying to come up with an answer that would please her. However, given her Japanese language grades, this answer would obviously require a lot of deep thought.

Her delicate, endearing face puffed out slightly, looking a little gloomy, but this quickly turned into a look of sudden realization. Then, she happily raised her head, about to raise her hand—

"Okay, then let Sakaki..."

"Uh, Kirishima?"

As was her habit, Teacher Haihara was halfway through her sentence when she realized that the person who raised their hand was not the one she had imagined.

In fact, it's not just Teacher Haihara.

The students around her also looked confused and surprised as they stared at the girl who had raised her hand in the classroom.

Then they heard a very positive response:

"Yes, Teacher Haihara, I want to answer!"

For a moment, everyone was confused when they saw the girl who raised her hand. Did anyone in their class have the "energetic girl" persona?

And that girl just happened to be their familiar friend, Kirishima Ai.

Sakaki Chika also opened her mouth slightly, blinked her eyes, and looked blank and speechless.

Huh? Why would Ai answer at a time like this?

However, no one could explain their surprise at this moment, even Teacher Haihara looked at Kirishima Ai stood up with a hint of suspicion.

Kirishima Ai was beaming with enthusiasm today, and she answered Teacher Haihara's questions earnestly with her hands behind her back:

"This ancient poem describes the poet's situation of feeling unappreciated despite his talents..."

She answered in a very deliberate and methodical manner.

After she finished speaking very seriously, Haihara pondered for a moment, looked at Kirishima Ai carefully for a while, and then nodded.

"Good answer, please have a seat."

As a result, Kirishima Ai seemed to be greatly encouraged by Teacher Haihara's response, and then happily said:

"Thank you, teacher!"

"?"

I've been a teacher for so many years.

To be honest, Haihara never imagined that she would hear such an energetic "thank you, teacher" like she did when she was teaching in elementary school.

After that, Haihara even started to lack confidence when giving lectures.

The surrounding students also stared at Kirishima Ai with strange expressions from afar.

Although Kirishima Ai has almost no friends in this class due to her aloof and withdrawn personality, this does not mean that Kirishima Ai has a low profile.

After all, she was not only beautiful, but also consistently ranked among the top students in her grade. Even in sports, she was among the best in her first year. In the first semester of her first year of high school, Kirishima Ai even won first place in the girls' competition several times.

Coupled with her personality, she can be described as a popular and aloof beauty.

Even boys from other classes confessed their feelings to her.

However, Kirishima Ai always refuses with a humble, polite, yet indifferent attitude.

It is said that students should focus on their studies.

In other words, she's a typical aloof goddess.

But today, how should I put it...

Even her deskmate Sakaki Chika, sensed something was off.

Is Kirishima acting a bit out of character today?

Not only was she all smiles in class, but she also actively answered questions... This was Teacher Haihara's class, after all.

After Kirishima Ai sat down, Sakaki Chika secretly glanced at her deskmate, wanting to see if Kirishima Ai was any different from usual today.

She seems to be just like the usual Ai.

If I had to describe it, it felt like my whole body was glowing, like when I transform into Magic girl.

However, for the time being, Sakaki Chika didn't ask too many questions. After all, Kirishima Ai seemed to be in a good mood today. Although something seemed a little off, perhaps she should be more happy for her friend at this time.

She temporarily dispelled her doubts and raised her head to continue the lesson.

Haihara quickly reverted to her usual self during class, just like she always is.

Nothing unusual happened in the following class.

Takanashi Shiori didn't wake up during class either, and just lay there until the bell rang to signal the end of class.

However, just before class ended, Haihara glanced at the time.

This sight caused some students to show bitter expressions.

Then they heard Haihara say:

"Finally, let me assign homework. I will be collecting an essay in two weeks."

Suddenly, a sigh, seemingly unintentional yet remarkably synchronized, echoed throughout the classroom from the students.

Haihara ignored these frustrated voices.

She raised her eyes, looked at the dejected students in the classroom, then turned around, picked up the chalk, and began writing the essay requirements on the blackboard.

Sakaki Chika and Kirishima Ai both carefully noted down the requirements.

Haihara was writing and talking at the same time.

"Recently, I remember there was an animated movie that many of you probably saw, although I didn't."

"The content of this essay is somewhat similar to that one."
