Chapter 283

Silver Feather didn't speak, but her eyes trembled slightly.

After that, Silver Feather, who was following Haihara, felt his gloomy and listless mood improve slightly, and his face even flushed a little.

Using excuses like "it's Magic girl cosplay" to brush it off is unrealistic, because people see her on TV every day, so it's not like they wouldn't recognize the face of the Magical Girl Silver Feather.

Fortunately, for the residents of Maple Plain City, seeing the Magical Girl Silver Feather on the street isn't so unbelievable. Most of them will first feel excited, and then consider taking a photo with her or posting it on their social media accounts.

Haihara remembers that when she was little, there were also those flamboyant Magic girls who liked to wander around the streets in their transformed state.

Fortunately, there weren't many people in the izakaya at night; besides the owner, it was just her and Ms. Suzuki.

Yes, Ms. Suzuki is here too.

"Is this child... Silver Feather himself?"

Suzuki looked slightly surprised.

She was even a little nervous because she was suddenly sitting in a restaurant eating with Magic girl.

Although Magic girl culture is popular in this city, this is the first time I've ever had the chance to sit and eat in the same restaurant as her.

Even adults are not immune to curiosity.

It's really rare to see a Magic girl eating at a restaurant.

It was so unusual that even the store manager wanted to take a photo with it, considering it an honor for the store.

"It's me."

At this moment, Haihara revealed a side of herself rarely seen at school, acting like an ordinary older sister as she spoke while ruffling Silver Feather's head.

This was the first time she'd had the chance to rub the head of the Problem Child in his Silver Feather form, so she couldn't let it slip by.

In that respect, it is indeed quite a pity.

She also wanted to hug the Magic girl Phantom Wind or Star Flower.

Let's just forget about the Thousand Sins.

That outfit looks so prickly; last time we kissed, Haihara was afraid his Magic Gear would tear her clothes.

"Hello, I am the Magical Girl Silver Feather."

Magical Girl Silver Feather bowed respectfully to Ms. Suzuki, then sat down naturally.

Seeing that Ms. Suzuki still looked curious about why Silver Feather was eating here, Haihara picked up a cooked skewer to prepare the sauce, and said simply:

"I saw she hadn't eaten and looked very hungry by the roadside, so I brought her over to eat with me. You don't mind, do you?"

"How could that be?" Suzuki shook his head, then looked at Silver Feather: "Miss Silver Feather, please help yourselves with the skewers here, it's on me and Haihara."

Just like Silver Feather remembered, Teacher Suzuki was very gentle and kind to him.

Silver Feather thought to herself.

However, on the other hand...

It turns out that Teacher Haihara and Teacher Suzuki are such good friends that they even drink together.

However, considering that they are both young teachers, and music class is the only class that Teacher Haihara keeps in the classroom, it's quite normal.

"Thanks."

She obediently lowered her head.

Then she looked curiously at the skewers that were cooking, wondering what they would taste like.

For obvious reasons, she couldn't go out to eat with Kirishima Ai.

After that, two older women put oden pieces on her plate, which looked very tempting. Silver Feather was starving, so she didn't hesitate to stuff them into her stomach.

She slowly put a skewer into her mouth, chewed quietly, and maintained good table manners in front of the teachers.

She paused halfway through her meal, her eyes brightening slightly.

Everything was hot and delicious...

It tastes just like candy, and it's even warmer.

"Is it tasty?"

As Ms. Suzuki watched with a smile as Silver Feather ate his hearty meal, she drank her wine, and a flush of intoxication crept onto her face.

Haihara watched quietly from the side, drinking her wine.

Since it was her first time dining with two adults, who were also her teachers, Silver Feather inevitably felt a little out of place. She wanted to tell them her opinion, but in reality, she hadn't eaten many different kinds of food.

"As delicious as ramen?"

Silver Feather described the deliciousness of the food with her limited knowledge.

Suzuki was amused and laughed.

"Ramen and oden taste very different, right?"

"Yeah..."

Silver Feather looked somewhat confused.

However, she soon seemed to realize that this was her problem, so she didn't ask anything and slowly put another crab stick into her mouth.

The taste is about the same.

Does it taste different from ramen?

Or is it that although the texture is the same, the taste is actually closer to that of candy?

The girl's gaze shifted from unease to calm, and then she masked it all with an outgoing demeanor.

This was just a minor incident.

The steam from the oden gives this little shop a great atmosphere for evening gatherings.

Silver Feather was also unconsciously immersed in this wonderful feeling.

She watched as the glasses of wine were emptied one by one.

Teacher Suzuki's laughter, which had been gentle and refined at the beginning, had now become somewhat strange.

Teacher Haihara, remained as usual.

"By the way, this woman can get drunk and cause trouble, so be careful."

Suddenly, as if realizing something, Haihara, holding her beer mug, pointed to Suzuki sitting to the side, reminding Silver Feather was having his first meal and drink with an adult.

Silver Feather had heard of people getting drunk and acting crazy.

I've heard that alcohol can make people happy and cheerful, just like Miss Lily that Kirishima Ai often mentions. Miss Lily always seemed quite happy.

Just as Haihara finished speaking, Teacher Suzuki suddenly swayed to Haihara's side, putting an arm around Haihara's slender white neck. A strong smell of alcohol was so strong that even Silver Feather, who was sitting on Haihara's other side, could smell it.

"Huh? Drunk? No way, I'm a very well-behaved drunkard."

Suzuki slurred drunkenly, reaching out his other hand to hug Haihara as well. His hair brushed against Haihara's chin, making him look like he was about to collapse at any moment, while he let out a strange giggle.

Both Silver Feather and Haihara were stunned for a moment.

Haihara looked awkwardly at Ms. Suzuki, who was hugging her. She smelled the other woman's perfume and alcohol, and felt her cool, slightly damp skin brushing against her, making Haihara's face feel hot.

This doesn't seem like someone who drinks very well.

Seeing Silver Feather's stunned expression, Haihara felt a little embarrassed.

"Someone's watching. Drink some water to clear your head."

"No, please."

After that, Ms. Suzuki kept acting crazy while drunk, hugging Haihara and laughing foolishly. This started some time ago, and it seems that some event made Suzuki feel that Haihara was closer to her, so she became bolder when drunk.

The problem is, it seems a bit too bold...

"Speaking of which, Haihara, how did your breasts get so big...? Can I touch them?"

Ms. Suzuki stretched out a hand and tried to grab at the empty space, but because she had been drinking, she couldn't see clearly and didn't succeed, while Haihara was deep in thought.

At this moment, Silver Feather finally reacted. She panicked and immediately grabbed Haihara's other arm with both hands, while gently pulling away Teacher Suzuki's hand that was about to attack.

"Ms. Suzuki, please stop touching me and stop hugging me. Please let go of Teacher Haihara."

Silver Feather's face stiffened, and she clung tightly to Haihara's arm.

She even mispronounced "Teacher Haihara".

Although she had not only hugged and rubbed him before, Silver Feather didn't want anyone else to do it.

Suzuki seemed amused by Silver Feather and continued to laugh. Then, to show off her "sisterly affection" with Haihara, she rubbed her cheek against Haihara's.

The girl, not to be outdone, tried to outdo Suzuki in something and copied him.

"..."

After that, Haihara pushed both of them away and simply changed seats, letting Silver Feather sit in the middle, so there wouldn't be any problems.

The three of them ate until late at night without realizing it, although the latter half mainly consisted of drinking alcohol and juice.

Ms. Suzuki is the type who likes to play pranks when she's drunk; being overly enthusiastic and clingy is just one manifestation of this, and Haihara didn't pay much attention to it.

Silver Feather seemed to have a big appetite, so Haihara kept adding more skewers for her.

Behind them was the cold winter wind outside the store.

But in front of me was the steam of warm soup.

Silver Feather ate the hot meat skewers, warming his actually empty and hollow stomach, he felt a deep sense of fulfillment despite the food tasting almost like water.

Eating like this allows you to experience the true feeling of being human.

Silver Feather was unusually downcast, but she concealed this emotion and suddenly said with great emotion:

"I miss it so much."

She sighed almost in a very low voice, but Haihara heard her.

Beside her, Haihara raised her head.

What do you mean?

Perhaps he was too relaxed, or perhaps Silver Feather really wanted to confide in Haihara, but Silver Feather raised his head and looked into Teacher Haihara.

She glanced at it briefly before lowering her head again, as if hoping Haihara might still remember it. She held the skewer she had finished eating and drew circles on the plate.

"I remember a long time ago, Haihara- san treated me to something like this."

Chapter Seventy-Eight: Besieged by a Female Ghost

Now, Kirishima Ai is facing her first encounter with Magic female ghost in her life.

To be precise, this doesn't seem to be the first time she's encountered a ghost. In a sense, Silver Feather has frightened her in this way many times before.

However, considering the many inexplicable and inexplicable situations that had arisen recently, Kirishima Ai did not immediately contact Takanashi, but instead decided to listen to what the female ghost who had suddenly appeared in her mind had to say.

"You just said that Silver Feather will soon take everything from me. What do you mean by that?"

This was the most difficult thing for her to understand.

[Look at your current state. Your existence is fading away bit by bit, isn't it? This is just the beginning. Soon, you will completely turn into bubbles, and everything will be replaced by Silver Feather.]

Following the female ghost's instructions, Kirishima Ai frowned as she looked at her arm, which had just become illusory. If last time it only reached her wrist, this time it was almost her entire arm.

After becoming illusory, it was as if a part of her had disappeared; she couldn't grasp anything.

That's really scary.

This time she was certain; it was no illusion.

Although she didn't entirely believe the female ghost's words, it was inevitable that the ghost knew some inside information that she didn't.

"What does this have to do with Silver Feather?"

She touched her arm, which had recovered, the panic and anxiety from earlier still lingering.

[Ha, it seems you trust that Monster with your face quite a bit.]

The female ghost's voice carried a mocking tone.
