Chapter 505
"Hey, Kirishima, the class over there is having an event with prizes, do you think we could participate?"
Kuroki Yuka was suddenly drawn to a class activity and immediately became interested, tugging at Kirishima Ai's sleeve.
Kirishima Ai looked up and glanced at it--
"Is that an arm-wrestling competition over there? How could we possibly win?"
"I heard that during the sports meet, you basically won first place in every event you participated in throughout the entire school year, and last time when we measured your height, weight, and grip strength, your weight and grip strength were as high as..."
Before Kuroki Yuka could finish speaking, she was brutally elbowed by the unreasonable and violent Kirishima Ai.
Having grown accustomed to being elbowed, Kuroki Yuka immediately executed a brilliant interception and neutralized the force, sparing her waist from the blow.
"Tsk, fine, I won't say."
Objectively speaking, Kirishima Ai's physical abilities are indeed outstanding among girls.
But she wasn't so confident that she felt she could compete with boys from other classes.
Besides, she wasn't interested in the prizes or the competition.
Kuroki Yuka's interest was just a passing fancy, and she quickly stopped mentioning it. She was then drawn to a grilled cheese hot dog stand and couldn't wait to buy one to try.
Just as she was about to leave, she was suddenly grabbed by Kirishima Ai, who was standing next to her.
"What's wrong?"
Kuroki Yuka turned her head away.
"Let's go participate in that competition."
Kirishima Ai suddenly spoke seriously.
"...?"
Kuroki Yuka looked confused. "Didn't you just say we had no chance of winning the championship?"
Kirishima Ai shook her head, then raised her hand and pointed to the prizes displayed in a glass cabinet in that classroom, arranged in several layers.
Naturally, Kuroki Yuka's gaze was also drawn to the glass case, to see what prize Kirishima Ai was so interested in.
Looking up from the bottom... it doesn't seem like anything special, just a box of chocolates, a doll, a deluxe Magic girl Phantom Wind commemorative book... As for the champion's prize, it's just a very exquisite and gorgeous-looking ring.
... Wait a minute?
Why did the champion's reward suddenly become a ring? It seems so out of place compared to the others.
Does nobody really think it's strange that the ring is there?
Moreover, some elements of that ring looked strangely familiar.
Upon closer inspection, the ring is a cool, silvery-gray color, with an exquisite openwork design, featuring Feather Wing shape embracing the band.
Even from such a distance, the two could still see the dazzling, breathtaking starlight, and the exquisitely crafted serpent head on the ring.
This thing looks so familiar.
Because they've been chasing after and capturing a certain Magic Armament lately, that Magic Armament often disguises itself as all sorts of strange and unusual things, hiding in the corners of the city. Apart from Magic girls, ordinary mortals can't detect anything amiss.
"Wait, how did they end up here?"
Kuroki Yuka greatly surprised.
What a coincidence!
Without a doubt, this is the legendary Magic Armament they have been trying to capture recently— the Lost Paradise Twilight, the strongest Magic Wand belonging exclusively to the Overlord.
Having already experienced numerous chases, the two did not make a big show of their skills, nor did they slowly go back to call for Takanashi and the others. Instead, they decided to take swift action and attempt to retrieve them.
Other students can't get this.
Moreover, in order to avoid disturbing this "ring", we cannot make too much noise.
Now, we have no choice but to win this match.
They must act quickly.
However, the problem still troubled them---
"But how do we win?"
Kuroki Yuka looked towards the match venue, he saw a true "heavyweight" fighter stubbornly holding onto the ring.
She glanced again at Kirishima Ai's slender little wrists.
It's impossible for them to win.
"... I'll go, you watch the prizes first, I'm going to the restroom."
Suddenly, after a brief moment of contemplation, Kirishima Ai made a decision that went against the spirit of the game.
"Learn."
Kuroki Yuka a thumbs up.
Afterwards, many people noticed that Kirishima Ai, the actress who plays Silver Feather, went into the restroom, while Kuroki Yuka strolled towards the competition venue.
The students from the class that was hosting the competition, along with the spectators around, all looked over, and then half-jokingly said:
"Is Dark Kite coming to participate in the competition? She's our Ace player; she might even be able to beat Magic girl."
As he spoke, everyone around him burst into laughter.
Kuroki Yuka, naturally, also wore a smile, but faced with everyone's teasing, she simply shook her head with a lonely, snow-like expression.
"No, I found another heavyweight to compete."
"And that player is even more powerful, more dominant, and stronger than the one with the current twenty-game winning streak."
"Uh... what?"
The boy hosting the competition blinked.
He glanced again at the arm-wrestling table, at the heavyweight contender weighing over 200 pounds, and wondered if Class Four had such a formidable opponent.
However, the actor playing Dark Kite in front of us looks like he's determined to win the championship.
At first, everyone was puzzled.
Soon, everyone present knew.
----The purity of Magic girls.
Rumor has it that half a minute ago, a girl heard strange noises in the restroom.
"Which one should I choose? Which one should I choose? Which one should I choose...?"
"--- The Phoenix Myth!"
When the two forces of destiny intertwine, the legendary divine bird will be reborn from the ashes, and a hero who transcends fate will descend upon this place!
"Magic Girl's Weapon Ultimate Pomegranate Robe Three Beauties--- Fate Kite!"
This is the noisiest I've ever seen in the women's restroom.
After the commotion ended, not only in the women's restroom, but suddenly, the entire floor shook slightly.
Although nothing was actually broken as a result, everyone clearly felt a pang of fear.
"... Did you hear a tremor just now?"
"It must be my imagination... It must be my imagination?"
They looked at each other, completely bewildered.
Just then, a dark red, heroic figure emerged majestically from the girls' restroom.
Those around suddenly felt the temperature rise a few degrees; even in winter, the corridor wasn't so cold anymore.
They all looked in confusion toward the source of that inexplicable aura, and then saw that the Class Four student who had just been cosplaying as Silver Feather had suddenly changed into a cosplay outfit of Fate Kite.
No, is this how it's supposed to be reproduced?
And they even brought a second set?
And why did they feel a genuine sense of oppression?
And so, the Magic girl dressed in dark Magic Gear, adorned with crimson feathers resembling Red Lotus ash, walked step by step toward the arm-wrestling match.
This imposing presence truly overwhelmed everything around it.
After all, even Perfect Form Monster has to grovel before this "power" that has been passed down from the Overlord.
"Uh... uh, everyone, our newest challenger is Magic Girl Fate Kite."
"Can she... can she end Yoshida's twenty-game winning streak and win the final championship?"
Without realizing it, the host's voice became increasingly unconfident and softer.
The dark red Magic girl sat down at the arm-wrestling table with a blank expression and a chilling aura. She nodded slightly with a competitive spirit, then raised her arm and placed it on the table.
She made a "pose".
It seems this Magic girl actress is ready to start the competition.
Having just defeated one heavyweight opponent after another, Yoshida seems remarkably calm now, even as he faces such a formidable opponent.
Suddenly, he seemed a little nervous, wiping the sweat from his forehead with his arm, as if he were nervous because the opponent in front of him was too realistic.
Will we win?
The strongest Magic girl in Maple Plain City in the past, and the strongest high school student at Kaedehara High School.
Everyone present witnessed this decisive moment of the strongest S-rank, and it was foreseeable that this would be an extremely intense and exciting duel.
Upon realizing this, everyone gasped in shock.
According to later reports, this fortunate yet unfortunate high school student left only one sentence before the game ended:
"... I'll fight the Fate Kite, really?"
Volume Four Does This Count as a Magical Girl??: Chapter 27 Teacher, I Can't Tell!
We won. We won completely.
The Magic girl, Fate Kite, defeated all the strongest students in the entire school.
Whether it's a reserve athlete, a soccer Ace, or a karate champion, they all fell short, defeated by the purity of Magic girl.
In terms of wrist strength, kicking power, weight class, crater-breaking ability, or anything else, Fate Kite far surpasses all the high school students in the school.
In this arm-wrestling match, the Magic girl Fate Kite won in just two minutes.
They won the championship as expected, and unsurprisingly, the ring, which was the prize for the champion, also belonged to them.
When the incredibly exciting arm-wrestling match ended, and the commotion from the surrounding crowd hadn't subsided, Kirishima Ai, having deactivated her transformation, quickly left the scene with Kuroki Yuka, taking the ring with her.
After a short jog, their pace gradually slowed down until the surroundings became quiet, at which point the two of them came to a complete stop.
"..."
Kirishima Ai looked around.
There seemed to be no one around.
Throughout this time, Kirishima Ai held onto the incredibly cold, exquisitely designed ring in her hand. Even after she and Kuroki Yuka reached this relatively quiet place, she still wondered if things had gone a little too smoothly.
Did they really just end up with Lost Paradise Twilight?
Thinking of this, Kirishima Ai spread her hands and looked at the ring with suspicion, along with Kuroki Yuka.
It is very beautiful, with a captivating beauty. As a treasure in itself, it is exquisitely crafted. However, apart from that, it does not exude any powerful aura, just like the previous times when it was disguised as the Lost Paradise Twilight.
But the first few times, this Magic Armament wasn't so obedient; they even held it in their hands.
"Is it really that simple?" Kuroki Yuka blinked.
"... Maybe?"
Kirishima Ai and Kuroki Yuka exchanged uncertain glances.
Both of them felt that it wasn't that simple.
They had already contacted Takanashi and Sakaki Chika beforehand, and were on their way back to Class Four.
