Miluno, the Teacher

(Miluno)

The classroom for the Mobility Class is a regular small classroom.

The newly selected magical girls, skilled in speed and flight magic, were chosen from over three hundred magical girls. However, there were only fourteen of them, including Falcon. The small classroom wasn't even full; there were fewer people than expected.

I asked calmly:

Everyone should know me, right?

After receiving affirmative answers from everyone, I continued:

"Let me introduce myself again. I am Moonlit Gale, Miluno magical girl from Skyreach City. I have only been a magical girl for a little over a year. I originally enrolled as a student, but I was temporarily appointed as the class teacher of the Mobility Class because of the recommendation of the teacher who was originally scheduled to guide me."

"Hey! Hello, Ms. Miluno!"

Someone in the audience started heckling.

"Falcon! Don't interrupt me!"

I couldn't resist throwing chalk at her, but the chalk's trajectory was manipulated, landing directly in her hand... She got away with it.

"Ahem, this is Jaeger. Although you can't tell from her appearance, she is actually a witch arrested by the Association. Her name as a magical girl is Jet. Her ability is to operate jet engines for high-maneuverability flight. Since I myself can't fly, she will be in charge of training everyone in flight."

"Greetings, fellow students. I am the witch who has been assigned to be the teaching assistant for the Mobility Class, and also your mortal enemy."

Sirius has already revealed the existence of the witch to them, so there's no need to hide it now. It's better to make it clear sooner rather than later, so they can be more mindful during their training.

"Teacher! What's the difference between a witch and a magical girl?"

Standing on the podium and being called a teacher brings about subtle changes in one's mindset.

I patiently explained, "Their Star Crystal have completely merged with the Dark Energy of 'the Other Side,' and they will directly receive tasks from 'that will.' However, whether or not they carry them out is up to them. They are on the side of the Monster, so they can be seen as female Monster are more powerful but fewer in number."

"Is Miss Jaeger a witch who has defected?"

Another magical girl asked a question, and Jaeger personally provided the answer.

"No, I didn't defect. I was just brainwashed by SpiCa's magic and had to obey Miluno's orders to take on the role of your mentor."

"Oh, this..."

The student who asked the question looked somewhat bewildered and wistful.

I was equally baffled by Jaeger's brainwashing tactics.

She knew perfectly well that she had been brainwashed, that she was on the opposite side from us, but she would still obediently carry out any order I gave her...

What kind of brainwashing is this?!

Was she really not just pretending to be brainwashed to infiltrate our ranks as a spy?

He scanned the group of magical girls who were the fastest runners in the entire school.

"Anyway, barring any unforeseen circumstances, I will be leading this class for the next semester. Although our class is small, I hope everyone can become a capable magical girl. So, let's start with self-introductions..."

The class went fairly smoothly, but not because of me.

Jaeger was originally a soldier, so she was very good at training these "new recruits," teaching them theoretical flying skills and the key points of high-speed warfare...

Oh no, I've become a teaching assistant.

"Get out of class dismissed."

Although I said that, I added, "This afternoon is for academic classes. Everyone will return to their original cities to study academic subjects, or you can go back to see your families. But you will have to sit in this classroom again tomorrow morning."

I finished speaking calmly, and Jaeger shouted loudly.

"Did you all understand?"

"Understood!"

"Disband."

Is this guy conducting military training?

"Jaeger, let's have a meal, then I'll show you around the dorm."

"Yes."

"Since you know you've been brainwashed, you don't need to speak so formally. Just be natural..."

He opened a portal to the Materials Distribution Center and called out to the magical girls who hadn't yet left the classroom, "Anyone who wants to have lunch with Miss Melissa can hitch a ride here."

Goodbye, teacher!

"Okay, goodbye."

"Teacher, I want to learn this!"

"There will be a dedicated course on this later, and I don't know how to explain it to you."

If you asked me to teach teleportation magic, I wouldn't know how. Just like Ceruno struggled with it back then, the feeling of using this magic is indescribable.

"Hey, Ms. Miluno ~"

Falcon came over and put his arms around me and Jaeger on either side.

"Yesterday we were classmates, and now you're my teacher. It feels really strange. We've been magical girls for about the same amount of time, so why is there such a big difference?"

"You don't have much practical experience in Hawaii. Before Ceruno became a magical girl, I had experienced battles of all sizes, and later faced all sorts of witches with ridiculously high strength... It seems that practical experience is indeed the shortcut to growth."

I said that just because I didn't want to discourage her.

After all, the differences between people are just that cruel.

My adaptability to the Star Crystal is the key to becoming stronger; this is something other magical girls can't imitate.

Let's go.

Finally, after passing through the wormhole, we arrived at the restaurant street that has become a tourist attraction on City School.

Falcon flew to the Materials Distribution Center to collect fresh ingredients, then returned to her stall. She was quick; no wonder she was from the Mobility Class.

Seeing that I wasn't planning to linger, Falcon called out, "Hey! Aren't you having barbecue today?"

"I wanted to check out the others, but there seem to be more vendors now?"

In just a few days, there are already more than ten stalls lined up in a row.

Magical girls who arrived from the school building in various ways began setting up their stalls, and I looked at the witch beside me.

"Assistant Professor Jaeger, what do you plan to eat?"

"Witches do not need to eat."

"But you can eat. Achernar loves lobsters. Eating is a pleasure. You are my captive, but not my slave. You can ask for whatever you want to eat. If it's not available here, I can try to make it."

Jaeger hesitated for a moment.

"Then, I'd like to eat grilled sausage."

Upon hearing this, Falcon quickly replied, "I can make those too, smoked sausage, cured sausage, or regular sausage?"

"Smoked."

"Give me ten minutes! I'll make you a sausage sandwich!"

So Falcon went to get the sausages again.

This Materials Distribution Center is really convenient; for the magical girls at the City School, it's like a giant supermarket with everything.

It's free.

"But before that, Assistant Coach Jaeger, shouldn't you take off that helmet?"

I tapped on the Jet Witch's helmet visor.

"You'd better change out of that bodysuit too. We're about the same size. If you wore that school uniform, I still wouldn't know what you look like."

Tight-fitting clothes that show off your figure are, to be honest, a bit sexy.

"... Is this an order?"

"Yes, it's an order."

It seems she wouldn't be willing to change unless I said so.

Jaeger showed a rare expression of resistance, but due to brainwashing, she bit her lower lip, removed her battle armor, and put on the school uniform I handed her.

At the same time, a holographic nameplate also appeared on the left chest of the school uniform.
