Chapter 460 – #2-41 Crisis, Crisis, Crisis, Crisis, Crisis! (3)
“Um… Clara can’t be reached?”
『Er~ Er~!!』
A magical girl with a slender figure, shiny white hair, and a sloppy costume closed the translucent hologram-type interface as if regretting it.
It’s a sci-fi function that doesn’t suit magical girls, but it’s really useful because it can even use status checks and messenger functions between magical girls you know.
The problem is, even that useful function is useless if the other person doesn’t reply.
“I wish I could stay with Clara…”
『Er~ Eruuuuu~! This damn bitch ahhhhh ~~~~ !!!
Clara is a valuable talent who can use magic related to buffs and debuffs, regardless of her own combat power.
In addition to that special magic, her cool-headed thinking ability and judgment, which she showed in her previous [Castle of Cliff], Will surely be of great help in this operation.
‘Even Blue Sapphire has a narrow field of vision…’
Both of them are young virgins who have just become adults.
With her extraordinary magic, she is confident in her powers, but when trouble arises, her hair turns white and she is often unable to make good judgments.
Although she is herself Gain Er, at least her experience in 【Castle of Cliff】 has allowed her to make such objective judgments.
‘Kei-unnie also doesn’t seem to have much thought at first glance, but she doesn’t hesitate to go ahead.’
Perhaps because of her frequent adversity, there was something like a firm bottom that was different from her baseless confidence.
Although she is said to be a woman’s body, she is thin, but if she follows him, she seems to be able to do anything anyway … She gives such trust.
‘Uhm. Still, it’s not good to be late. As expected, I have no choice but to go like this…’
“Look at this!!!!!!”
Pooh!
“It’s so…?!”
Er’s body stiffened at the sudden drop kick.
Long blue hair, as if woven with lapis lazuli.
Blue Sapphire, a magical girl in a blue costume who had a slender body but still showed more feminine curves than Er, was staring at Er, who had just collapsed, with her resentful eyes.
“Really…! How many times did she call What are you going to do if you leave the broadcasting to me and leave?!”
“Ah, ah… My back…! Now, just give me some sound for a second!”
“I don’t know. I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know~~!!!! What if I just throw it away and leave?! I don’t know what to do, so I’m standing still, but I suddenly shoot something like a star balloon, and the comment section is running out of control like it’s on fire…!”
“All you have to do is stand still.”
“That’s the hardest!”
Blue Sapphire patted Er with resentment.
It’s difficult for her to make strange requests.
She doesn’t do anything, but if she suddenly shoots money back… That was trouble as it is. Because I felt like I had to do something.
She’s not even a dime or two, and the amount beyond her imagination is exploding, so even thinking about the person who spent the money, she couldn’t bring herself to say that she would go find Er for a while.
I feel like I somehow know how the animals in the zoo feel… Of course, they’re not this sensitive, but…
“Girls, come out!”
A deep voice came from across the hallway. It’s a very exciting voice.
Then there was the sound of a broadcast announcing the arrival, but it must have been so exciting that even the thought of it completely disappeared.
…Everything, thanks to what the two of them did.
“Would you like to come? Shall we go up now?”
“We’re not done talking yet.”
“Hehe, if you give it, you can take it. Aren’t you asking for too much? I just want to see more because magical girls are amazing.”
“Oh yeah… But to come all the way here and broadcast?”
“You don’t know when the next broadcast will be. And just a moment ago, it really felt like broadcasting.”
“Even though. Have you forgotten what we are here to do?”
“I couldn’t stand it. And [Mekrak] Can’t believe they’re watching our broadcast? I don’t think you need to think too hard about it.”
“…That’s right.”
As we walked out of the hallway talking about this and that, the rough sea breeze blowing from the side wrapped around the two of us.
Ocean.
Wherever you look around the rocking boat, the blue sea spreads out in full view.
――The place where the two of them are floating right now is near the basin of the East Sea.
For the sake of the two of them, they are now floating on the sea in a boat.
* * *
“Girls! I don’t know what you’re talking about, but what am I supposed to do with this broadcast first?!”
“Yes, yes, I will go! Let’s go!”
Bronzed skin with a sturdy body. Contrary to his physique suitable for being a seaman, the man with a naive look called out to the two people who had just come out.
At the place where the uncle points with his finger as if he is in trouble, there is a broadcasting device and a laptop prepared by Er, and something like a huge octopus is loaded limply behind the uncle.
Rather than an octopus, should I call it a tentacle?
The object, which could be called a monster, could only carry a small part due to the circumstances of the ship, but even that was only that much.
The body was cut into pieces and sank to the bottom of the sea.
It was truly disgusting and disgusting. Just thinking about it again makes me go up.
“I barely knocked it down… It was dangerous.”
“In exchange, you earned a lot of points. Blue, are you satisfied too?”
“Uh heh heh. That’s good.”
“…I always think of you, do you know that you make a strange face whenever you talk about points?”
“Never mind.”
I had a lot of trouble due to the fact that it was on the unfamiliar sea and the fact that it was bigger than I imagined that I hadn’t met in the city center, but I was able to finally defeat it after a close fight.
After a lot of twists and turns, I ended up defeating a monster that big, so the broadcast chat window was on fire.
Er gave her one last bright smile in front of the screen and turned off her broadcast.
When the broadcast that disturbed her heart even more than the giant monster went off, Blue Sapphire could barely breathe a sigh of relief.
Can you focus on your original purpose now?
“So, once the uncles asked me to do it, I’ve finished… So, where do you think this place is?”
“…Wait a minute.”
A blue sapphire floated her interface screen in the air.
When she manipulated the hologram screen, visible only to her eyes, something like a dot appeared on the plane, followed by arrows and numbers.
“Looks like there isn’t much left.”
“I didn’t know that I would be able to travel by boat.”
“Therefore…”
I nodded her head in agreement.
What Blue Sapphire sees now is the GPS signal sent by Alpha, the magical girl she once befriended, and a rough map of it.
This is also a function of the interface used by magical girls, and it was the only clue to find Alpha, who had been missing for some time.
And surprisingly.
The place designated by the GPS signal was right in the middle of the East Sea where there was nothing.
‘It’s the same with that monster earlier, so it must be here… It’s like the enemy’s stronghold.’
“Ladies, as I said before we left, we can’t go any further.”
As the two looked around at the sea surrounding them, contrasting with the interface, a stalwart man approached them.
It is a very troubled face.
“If you go any further, all the machines will be out of order. I managed to get out of there by turning the pump manually last time…”
However, on the way, that monster came out and attacked, and it seems that I almost died at that time.
To think of coming all the way here with two people after having had such an experience. It was a courage worthy of praise.
“This is enough. Thank you.”
“No, thank you enough for how you did this. I really didn’t know how to live now because of this guy.”
“If you help someone in need, you get high points. Let me know if you need any help!”
The blue sapphire said without hiding his enthusiasm.
Broadcasting is uncomfortable, but when it comes to earning points, the tension is still high.
Anyway.
Now, if you go further than this, you can say that you can no longer use electronic devices. In addition to that, if it were [Mekrak]’S technical skills, various electronic measures might have been taken, but it seemed like there was no need to worry because it was a story that went far beyond the fields the two knew.
On the sailing boat to return to the sea they came from, Blue Sapphire and Er flew up with their own magic.
The destination is not far.
When I actually flew up, I could see the destination with the naked eye.
“It’s okay if we don’t mind! You can go back on your own!”
“Thank you for driving me this far!”
It was a boat that I had been on for days and days to find my destination, but it was easier than I thought.
Away from the boat they were on, the two of them flew towards their destination, scattering sparkling magic light like two fairies.
“Goodbye, ladies! Thank you!”
“Cheer up! Go for it!!”
Behind them, sun-tanned sailors waved their arms to see them off.
* * *
Tricky… Tricky…
“Ah, can you hear me? Can you hear?”
Inside the ship where the two magical girls, Blue Sapphire and Er, left.
There, a few sailors huddled together in front of a cheap walkie-talkie.
The machine was not in good condition, probably because it was cheap, but after a while, a voice could be heard as if it had managed to catch the radio wave.
[――…―――…]
A voice came from the other side with a smooth sound quality that was difficult to imagine coming from a cheap device.
Maybe it’s because it’s good that the equipment over there is of a different grade. Rather, it is surprising that such communication is possible even when using a completely different kind of technology.
“As you instructed, I sent a magical girl over there.”
[――…―――…]
“Yes Yes. That’s right. Two people. Blue and gold costume… Yes, that’s right.”
The sailors finished the report with a sinister laugh as if they couldn’t hide their joy.
[――――…――]
“Then, are you going to show us the taste later? …Yes, I’ll hang up, boss.Hee hee.”
The radio, which finally passed the sailor’s vulgarly laughing voice, soon became quiet with a popping sound.
* * *
“Wow… What is this…?”
The two of them flew through the air and arrived at their destination, but they couldn’t help but look dumbfounded at the scenery below.
It was because there was a huge island floating in the middle of the East Sea, where there should be nothing on the map.
What I thought was different from an ordinary island was that the surface of the island was not made of rocks and soil, but was mostly made of machines.
There were no tall buildings, but curves were visible here and there, as if trying to recreate a typical island landscape.
It is also quite wide, and even from above, you can barely see its end.
No matter how you look at it, it’s their home.
There was no doubt.
“Then shall we go down?”
“Yes.”
Er agreed to Blue Sapphire’s proposal, and the two of them gently landed on an island made of steel or a mysterious mineral.
