Chapter 214 – Volume 43 – The World of a Girl Who Never Grows Up (4)
“Five…”
So far, Wendy has helped Neverland run well in a very mature way.
As for her battles, she always left them to Petra.
It’s because I was a idiot for the Marchen battle.
But this time, I ignored Petra’s words not to collide.
Saying that Belle’s behavior was wrong when she said what she judged others for herself.
Saying that she wants to show how much she truly does not want to be an adult and how much she loves Neverland, she accepts the Merchen Battle.
And she builds on the things she ever learned from her watching Petra and her actions.
Create a new deck of her own Marchen, and face her duel.
“You have more guts than you think. But, stupid. How long do you think I’ve been fighting in Neverland?”
“That’s right. You will be stronger.”
“…What?”
“But, to give in just because you’re strong. She’s what adults do, Petra said.”
“You… You’re arrogant.”
The woman who read the manga thought that Wendy’s confident expression of her thoughts was cool.
And because she feels that way, she becomes immersed in Wendy’s story.
She gradually projected herself, and before she knew it, she had become a girl like Wendy who didn’t want to grow up.
Bell’s deck was her deck, which can be described as very slimy.
Restricting the actions of the other party in such a way as to forbid certain actions on both sides.
If she uses the rest of her plan, it triggers it to create additional damage to the opponent…
This is a deck that focuses more on bullying than winning.
If I can’t have the victory, you can’t have the victory either.
It was a deck full of selfishness and jealousy.
Grinding her dark heart, predicting what the other person wants one by one, tormenting her.
It was Bell’s strength to achieve her victory through it.
「So, isn’t it still only at the level of copying Petra’s deck? I don’t know if it’s Pet, but I can’t get tired of a beginner like you, right?”
“That’s something you need to know how to do. Draw…!”
Petra’s deck, which was introduced as a battle against enemies not long ago, was a deck that symbolized ‘strength’ that presses the opponent with powerful firepower.
Carrying around in a deck full of cards with all kinds of high-risk and high-return, but with different themes for some reason.
It is a concept that seems to compensate for the disadvantages of linkage between insufficient cards and high risk, literally with firepower.
However, after seeing that, Wendy’s deck, which she learned from Marchen Battle, was completely different.
Likewise, it was the same for her to win by destroying her opponent’s deck and hand.
The contents of the deck did not play separately at all, and it was a linkage deck that harmonized well with each other.
“…Uh? Isn’t Petra’s style completely different!?」
“Yes, not predicting that will be the cause of your defeat.”
“I’m proud of myself, but even if I respond from now on, I can win enough against you.”
Wendy’s deck has a pretty special twist.
She seems to have portrayed her usual image of leading everyone like an adult and leading like her mother.
It embraces and embraces every element in the flow of her deck.
Obviously, like Petra’s deck, they bring and use concepts that are played separately.
Those concepts were linked surprisingly well, creating new value.
And not only that, but Wendy’s generosity embraced other things as well.
「Wh, what are you doing…!」
“You treated me so harshly, I’m just trying to rest in my arms for a while.”
Persuade the opponent’s discarded card to accompany you.
Belle was furious with Wendy for making her feel that she was ‘taken away’, which she hated the most.
In things to judge without getting excited, I made the wrong choices over and over again.
「Ah, aaaaagh! Don’t, stop, don’t do that…!”
In the end, Belle was defeated, and was shocked by the nightmarish content of the fight.
He sat down and started crying like a very young child.
Petra really applauded Wendy for beating Bell.
“Thank you, but wait a little bit.”
But Wendy had something more urgent than Petra’s celebration.
Wendy sat down and hugged her crying Belle, and she apologized, saying she didn’t know she would hate her like that.
And she said it was all right, and she showed the cards that had been returned to their owners.
“…It’s like mother and daughter.”
She obviously felt like a villain trying to bully Wendy in the beginning.
For some reason, I felt like a child who was teased by her mother now.
The woman turned her page to the next, feeling a sense of satisfaction.
Bell eventually recognized Wendy, and under Wendy’s leadership, Neverland began to stabilize.
Previously, Neverland was like a time bomb that was somehow suppressed by the powerful Petra.
Now, it has become a world where children feel a sense of genuine belonging and develop.
But the longer this situation continued, the more problems arose.
It was because there was a group that didn’t want Neverland to be stable like that.
“It’s going well, so there’s an obstacle…”
It was Rachel and her adult group of followers.
Looters made up of beauties with very large breasts and slender bodies.
She always visits Petra wherever she is, and challenges her with a Marchen Battle.
Especially the normally quiet guys, let’s make Wendy good at Neverland these days.
She rushed to take her Wendy away because she was envious of it.
Of course, on the surface, she insisted that Wendy should be grown up, and that she should go with them.
It made no sense to try to take away Neverland’s mother or Wendy, who was no longer her, in that way.
That this is a vicious group that used to turn talented people into adults and take them away.
Because through Petra, all the children of Neverland knew.
There was no way such a lie would work.
“Ha, no matter how much I think about it, you, Wendy, aren’t the kind of person who would be around kids like that.”
“Rachel, I’m sorry, but I don’t want to become an adult. I am happy to live with these children as a child for the rest of my life.”
“That’s what it means to be more mature than anyone else. Are you still not aware of it?”
“…Even so, I will be stubborn like a child.”
“Yes, that’s the power that helps you stay where you are.”
Rachel was so powerful that she failed to kill even Petra.
So, at least Petra, who is slightly stronger than Rachel, has endured by defeating Rachel.
But today, Petra went out to reality with Bell to bring new children, and the problem was that Rachel attacked at that timing.
“…Can Wendy stop it?”
Now, of course, Wendy can easily beat Bell, but she’s grown to the point where she can’t be an opponent unless she’s Petra.
Even so, she did not become strong enough to defeat Petra.
To think that she had to stop Rachel, who had almost the same skills as Petra, with Wendy alone…
“It’s really unfortunate, we should have a guy like you, not a guy like me who became the leader by accident.”
“…What are you talking about? The leader of Neverland is Petra.”
「Hmph, that guy is a fool who is only strong and full of jealousy and greed. He has nothing to do as a leader. You are the real leader of Neverland right now.”
“That’s right.”
She’s a villain, but the woman who thought it should be acknowledged that she said the right thing gave her a nod.
Petra is cool too, but it was Wendy who actually supported Neverland.
That’s why the combination of the two can perfectly develop Neverland.
“…Therefore? Do you think you can destroy Neverland if you get rid of me?”
“No way. More than that, we just need you. I’m here to scout.”
“There is no chance of that happening. Because I will never grow up.”
“I know, that’s why I regret it even more.”
After Rachel said that, she used all her skills to pressure Wendy.
It was a deck with a very cute theme, like a macaron snack.
Its influence was comparable to Petra’s deck, which was ferocious.
Because it was a style that valued waiting and time to activate after several times.
A huge number of effects burst out in the second half, and Marchen proceeded at a rapid pace.
Due to the nature of waiting to activate, it was difficult to activate the effect immediately even if Wendy took away her discarded card.
In the end, Wendy had to watch Rachel’s Marchen being completed by a single inch.
Of course, Rachel came to this place after calculating that far, so she naturally exerted the influence of a winner.
She kidnapped all of her children who were there.
“…Wendy?”
And after failing to save her new child, Petra returned to Neverland.
I am embarrassed to see a strangely empty house.
Then I remembered Rachel, who had been attacking me lately, and I realized that Rachel had done this.
“…I should have killed him as soon as possible.”
Petra, who was going to fight in such anger, found a Marchen card she had never seen before in her house.
The potential contained in that card seemed very powerful.
Thinking that if she had it, she would be able to kill Rachel, so she gave her card without thinking.
But Bell, who sensed something strange, stopped Petra and grabbed the card instead.
At that moment, the curse contained in the Marchen card came out, causing Bell to fall into a sleep from which she could not wake up.
Embarrassed, Petra shook the bell to wake her up, but there was no sign of waking up…
“I will never forgive you…”
Petra was furious with a very stern expression she had never shown before.
She flew as fast as she could to Rachel’s home base.
