Chapter 513

"... So, when you wear this ring, maybe you'll see some kind of blissful illusion or something?"

"No."

Suzuki blinked, answered naturally, and then began to recall the events described in the question...

Yesterday... was just an ordinary day.

I went to work as usual, and after get off work, I had drinks with some close colleagues.

Her dear, sentimental colleague, Haihara- san, once again showed a melancholy expression, which was rather endearing.

Is that all?

But as for whether I'm happy or not, I'd say I'm quite happy.

But is this how it is every day?

After a while, she suddenly thought of something and drifted off into thought for a moment.

"Oh."

For some reason, she reacted somewhat unexpectedly, but quickly regained her usual adult composure and revealed a very mature and elegant smile.

Suzuki, having confirmed that it seemed nothing was a hallucination, answered lightly and naturally—

"No, it's no different from my usual life."

Then, make an adult smile.

Volume Four Does This Count as a Magical Girl??: Chapter 33 Yay!

On the second day of the School Festival, Kaedehara High School will open its doors to some people from outside the school, and some students, teachers and related personnel can also enter the school for visits and entertainment.

Naturally, an acquaintance of the Problem Child also took a day off from work at the coffee shop to visit the high school, especially to support the Problem Child's class activities.

Incidentally, I can also spend a day with Miss Haihara.

"Hey, is that tall girl also from our school?"

"You must be a college student, right?"

"Phosphorus Flow's wife is so handsome... he's practically a prince."

"He seems even more handsome than President Kazama."

"What are you talking about? It's clearly President Kazama...!"

Early in the morning, a young woman with hair the same color as the winter landscape, dressed smartly and exuding a mature and elegant air different from that of high school students, stepped into the school with an ordinary-looking female teacher.

Whether it's her hair color, appearance, or temperament, this seventeen-year-old girl named Cangyue Yuri has attracted a lot of attention.

Moreover, it seems to attract more girls?

After all, it's a pool-style restaurant.

Haihara brought this Little White into the school openly today, just as she had imagined, attracting a lot of attention.

However, Haihara clearly remembered telling Cangyue Yuri to keep a little distance from her before she came, but it seems that this little one has lost her sense of distance since she turned from a puppy into a human? So far, she has been maintaining a distance that says "we are very close", which makes Haihara feel a little uncomfortable.

Well, it's not that I don't like it.

As they passed by a class they also taught, Haihara and Cangyue Yuri were quickly surrounded by a group of girls from that class because they were accompanied by someone unusually, and a woman with such a striking appearance.

"Good morning, Teacher Haihara!"

"Teacher, teacher, who is this older sister? Is she your relative?"

At first, only a few people came out of curiosity, but as more people joined in the fun, more people noticed it.

Finally, someone couldn't help but ask.

"Could I have your contact information...?"

"Senior, may I ask what your relationship is to Teacher Haihara?"

Whispering sound.

Haihara was slightly annoyed to see her dog so popular with the girls.

Cangyue Yuri smiled brightly, like a celebrity accustomed to gaining new fans, and naturally raised her hand to wave and greet everyone, seemingly very used to this situation.

It's also a bit like Little White who knows he'll be popular with women.

I heard that the other person was very popular when they were at the R'lyeh Academy, so they must have encountered this situation many times, hence the formulaic pretty smile.

Haihara pondered for a moment, thinking about how to answer. Just as she was about to say that the two of them didn't actually know each other and just happened to be walking together, Cangyue Yuri clasped her hands in front of her and said very humbly and seriously—

"Me? I'm Haihara- san's admirer. I've been infatuated with her for a long time, and I've come here this time hoping to pursue her."

Having said that, she squinted her eyes, and her smile became even more beautiful and captivating.

Some of the high school girls were stunned, some screamed because of the shock, and others stared in disbelief at the indifferent-looking Teacher Haihara.

Haihara himself blinked in confusion, looking at the Magical Puppy beside him that didn't seem to be lying.

When Cangyue Yuri went out today, although she was dressed up properly and beautifully, she was wearing a decorative choker, which was bought for her by Haihara, and she would wear it every day after that.

"Teacher Haihara, is this true?"

One student couldn't help but ask.

Haihara also wants to know the answer to this question.

Then she looked at Cangyue Yuri.

"It was actually a joke, so please don't misunderstand Ms. Haihara. But the rest is private, Ms. Haihara... [Qi Yin, Er Yu, it seems we should go now.]"

In reality, they are just owner and dog.

They weren't as twisted as the pursued and admired.

After that, the two left the crowd and wandered around the school. When they were alone, Cangyue Yuri that this was a rare instance of Haihara taking the initiative to bring her out. She subconsciously glanced at the woman who was standing in front of her with a little concern.

Miss Haihara doesn't seem to have reacted to what was just said.

Cangyue Yuri couldn't quite put her finger on whether she felt lost or something else.

However, she found that she had a strange thought in her mind just now, that is, when there were so many people in front of her, she could take Haihara's arm, or try to gently press against her, making a very intimate gesture.

However, perhaps because they weren't actually that close, and it would cause trouble for Haihara- san, Cangyue Yuri didn't act impulsively.

With eyes as clear as a late winter day, she looked at Haihara's hand with a hint of concern. When she found that the hand was empty, she slightly raised her hand, wanting to see if she could hold it.

Finally, she quietly withdrew her hand.

After a while, Haihara turned her head slightly back:

"What's wrong?"

Cangyue Yuri smiled casually:

"Nothing."

"Miss Haihara, you can take me this far. I'll wander around on my own from here on out, and maybe I can go find Takanashi and the others while I'm at it."

"Ah... okay."

Haihara paused for a moment.

After that, Cangyue Yuri farewell to Haihara for the time being.

Watching Cangyue Yuri's departing figure, Haihara seemed lost in thought. She raised her hand and touched her neck, standing there blankly, blinking.

After leaving, Cangyue Yuri picked up her phone, checked her text messages, and asked Takanashi where they were.

Magic Girl Shiori- chan☆ [Yuri, Yuri, come here quickly!]

Takanashi quickly told Cangyue Yuri location, and for some reason, she seemed very excited.

Cangyue Yuri, only occasionally when Takanashi is in a good mood, will frankly call someone by their name.

What's wrong?

Since the other party seemed to be in a hurry, Cangyue Yuri didn't want to keep Takanashi and the others waiting. She asked some students nearby and then headed towards where Takanashi and the others were.

As she approached, Cangyue Yuri saw that several of her familiar Magic girls from Maple Plain City had already gathered there, all seemingly engaged in lively discussion. From this distance Cangyue Yuri could roughly hear what they were saying to each other.

"You really got it back so easily, and it looks different..."

Among them, the one who transformed into the Fate Kite, the girl named Kirishima Ai, was holding a Scythe -like Magic Wand about the length of her arm.

It was a rather ornate and elaborate Magic Wand, with dark gold embroidery entwining the pitch-black shaft, and flowers, Flowers, Birds, Wind, and Moon, and moon carved and clustered around a mysterious and noble multi-headed serpent.

The numerous snake heads themselves are all biting into the dark, cold scythe.

Takanashi nearby, also said incredulously:

"It clearly needed to absorb a lot more desires to be satisfied, so why did it suddenly become satisfied and content after just one night? It's unbelievable... What exactly happened?"

After hearing what Takanashi, Cangyue Yuri understood.

Before her, in Kirishima Ai's hand was the Crown Rank Magic Wand, Lost Paradise Twilight.

I heard that yesterday it was still in the form of a ring that had not been fully revived or subdued.

As a result, when they retrieved the Magic Wand this morning, Magic Wand was no longer causing any trouble and was ready to be recycled.

"It happened shortly after I got it back from Teacher Suzuki, and then nothing like that happened again."

Does this mean our mission is complete?

"Huh? It's that simple?"

The Magic girls each had their own reactions.

At this moment, Cangyue Yuri also walked over and couldn't help but join the discussion. Everyone had a look of sudden realization and confusion on their faces, and they all had the same thoughts in their hearts.

Is it really that simple?

And just like that, this seemingly incredibly difficult, almost impossible task came to an end?

They looked at each other, sensing once again that it seemed that Lost Paradise Twilight was truly not going to cause trouble anytime soon and was planning to cooperate with them.

After some time, they finally confirmed this point again, and they all looked like they were deep in thought.

It felt like a dream, everything went too smoothly.

I don't understand, what's going on?

However, for the time being, although there are still many doubts, once they come to their senses and everything is really fine, they all have the same reaction and thoughts.

They held their Magic Wand together and chanted in unison—

"----Yay!"

Volume Four Does This Count as a Magical Girl??: Chapter 34 My Bandai Toy

Finally, the Magic girls completed their final mission in Maple Plain City, in a surprisingly simple and easy manner.

It went so smoothly that it made one worry whether things were really that simple.

Could it be that they're still Lost Paradise Twilight?

But worrying about that now is useless.

Now that things have come to this, let's have a small celebration. All that's left is to hand the Magic Wand to Professor Roland, and everything will be over.

Looking at her other eager companions, Cangyue Yuri felt both happy and a little lonely.

It's going to end even more smoothly than I expected.

I wonder if I'll have a chance to spend more time with Kuroki and Haihara the next day.

Upon arriving here, Cangyue Yuri seemed to realize that she had overlooked something very important.

It's something that's very simple, but unexpected.

Because of the contract with Haihara- san, she couldn't even remind Takanashi and the others.

Among the cheerful girls, besides Cangyue Yuri, Kuroki Yuka also appeared to be deep in thought.

The girl with long, grey-gold hair stared at the Magic Wand, her gaze remaining silent for a moment. She subconsciously touched her neck before calmly saying:

"Anyway, let's take the Magic Wand to Dean Roland first. We're wearing costumes today, so it won't feel out of place with it..."
