Chapter 23 – Episode 23. Star Oath (4)
Episode 23. Star Oath (4)
“… We repeated the situation several times… And worked hard to capture you guys. You became my flesh slaves and were freed from the pain of being a magical girl. While you were with me, you seemed so happy that hearts appeared in your eyes. “That’s our relationship.”
“No, are you kidding me!?”
Scarlett shouted in embarrassment.
I couldn’t understand the behavior of the guy who suddenly started making embarrassing noises, and Scarlett, who recalled ‘some’ memories of her past life thanks to Kang Ga-hyun, had no choice but to deny it.
Obviously, she was a virgin in her past life.
At least that was the case as far as she could remember.
But what if we suddenly became involved in a physical relationship?
Even all three?
Has this man actually overcome Uriel’s mirror?
It didn’t work, but he might be pretending that it did, and frivolously toy with Scarlett again.
“… I am neither an Earthling nor an alien.”
“…”
The topic moved on to the next topic.
A repetition of what I said earlier.
Scarlett thought that this might be proof that he had not been caught by the confession skill, but for now, she continued to listen to what he said.
“… I am an outsider. As a being with no connection to this world… I was born to die for you.”
It was a series of incomprehensible words.
Born to die.
What does that mean?
Besides, it has nothing to do with this world.
It even made me feel a faint sense of fear.
So does that mean he is a being like a god or a devil?
Even the Paramas saints did not say such enigmatic words in front of Uriel’s mirror.
They admitted that they were ‘alien’.
So what about this man?
“Scarlett.”
At that time, Blois’ voice was heard.
While Scarlett was confused after hearing Smile Face’s words, she quickly flew to her side and whispered softly into her ear.
Blois’ body gave off a cool, sweet scent.
“Stop the skill. “This is a trick.”
“…”
Scarlett was conflicted.
As a skill caster, you can know.
Uriel’s mirror is working properly.
The tremble of her truth was being conveyed to her from a place connected to Smile Face’s truest heart.
Even though the words are ambiguous, she knows that the truth is always that complex and ambiguous.
But no enemy in history had ever said something that shook her like this.
“Scarlett.”
Blois grabbed Scarlett’s arm.
Her hands were a little cold.
Thanks to this, Scarlett’s heated body calmed down a little and she was able to make rational decisions.
Whether this is true or not, we must stop here.
Smile Face is also a dangerous person.
This conversation will need to be analyzed later.
Fortunately, this entire scene was recorded through her own, Solena, and Blois’ devices, so she spread her arms without hesitation and collected the spark of her truth.
Grumbling.
The path of flame that had initially erupted from Scarlett’s body was sucked back into her body.
Even though it was evening, the muggy air calmly cooled down due to the tremendous force of the fireworks.
Citizens watching from afar were amazed.
They don’t know how dangerous Smile Face is, so they act so innocently.
It may have meant that she had trust in her magical girls, but Scarlett was afraid of that feeling.
Can we really protect them?
If Smile Face is capable of ‘deception’ even in front of Uriel’s mirror, then all of this is just a play.
“… No.”
Scarlett thought as she watched Smile Face stand there dazed as if she had just woken up from a dream and then lifted her head.
He clearly shed blood.
Due to Paramas’ surprise attack.
If she was going to show off her overwhelming self, there would have been no reason for her to reveal such a gap there.
It is her one-sided delusion that Smile Face is not from this world but a being of God or the devil.
He is something that can be killed and punished.
“Wow, this is my first experience like this. I’m so sleepy… I just want to lie down anywhere. Speaking of which, I would like Miss Scarlett’s ample breasts.”
Smiley Face, who ‘came to her senses’, returned to her original face, making rude and extremely unpleasant sexually harassing comments.
Does he not remember what he said?
That, too, matched the reactions of those Scarlett had used Uriel’s Mirror with so far.
Could this even be an act?
“It’s Uriel’s mirror, right?”
“…”
Scarlett was startled and her body trembled.
Although her pride was hurt, the smiley face narrowed her eyes as if her true feelings were clearly revealed.
Those words left a clear trace in her heart.
Blois grabbed her shoulder.
Unlike Scarlett, he has a calm and serious personality in everything, and in times like this, he is someone who can always be relied on.
Solena also stood next to him.
“Scarlett, let’s follow what the doctor says for now.”
Oh, I did.
Scarlett finally remembered the previous situation.
Smile Face appeared here to eliminate Saint Paramas, who was trying to steal the ‘Star Oath’ for his own purpose, and was just about to leave.
Scarlett was the one who caught him like that.
Surely he would be reprimanded when he returned to base.
She had turned off the communicator on her own, but the other two were probably in contact with the base.
“I believe I have kept my promise, but Miss Scarlett, will you not write the Star Vow for me?”
Smile Face provokes again.
However, contrary to what he said, he does not seem to be very sad that the magical girls left like this.
That sight makes me even more angry.
There was no way that undignified guy could be a god, a devil, or something great like that.
It must have just been some kind of trick.
Hiding behind those fancy goggles, I found a way to avoid Uriel’s mirror.
There must have been a way to build a mental barrier.
That was also assuming that he knew exactly Scarlett’s skills, activation timing, and intentions.
“…Scarlett.”
“Scarlett, don’t get caught up. Huh? Let’s go.”
Blois called Scarlett’s name in a low, rich voice for a woman like hers, and Solena, unable to hide her anxiety, put her arm around hers.
“Let’s go.”
The base’s orders have already been violated enough.
When Scarlett was about to bend her pride and turn away at the words of her colleagues urging her again, her smiling face spoke to them in a high, sly voice.
“Oh, are you running away? “Those magical girls?”
“… Let’s ignore it. Not now.”
Solena whispered.
“…”
“Okay, run away quickly. But remember: I will kill more recoveries in the future. Perhaps, in order to receive your malice and murderous intent, you might even use your magic on the citizens? “Everyone is overly disciplined, aren’t they?”
Smile Face shouted while looking at the citizens.
“Era of peace! The age of comfort! The world seems better because there are magical girls, right? But the enemy is within you. Is it still okay? Do you like it now? One day you will experience hell. “It’s because of your complacency!”
He started to run wild.
“Scarlett!”
Finally, Scarlett couldn’t stand it anymore and turned around.
“Star Oath? “I will write it for you.”
“Scarlett, no!”
“… I thought you didn’t need the Star Oath, but I can’t see you going on a rampage any longer!”
Scarlett’s eyes shone.
A red aura like the sun’s corona rose around her, and a circular pattern formed under her feet.
It progressed very slowly, but it was affecting the surroundings in all directions, to the point that the starry evening sky was rapidly darkening.
“Twinkle shower!”
At that time, Solena jumped in front of Scarlett and cast her skill, and beams of light poured from the sky.
Fish shoo shoo shoot!
The darkening sky temporarily brightened due to the light skill Solena used.
Smile Face dodged between them.
Even though he disappeared for a moment and reappeared some distance away, his smiling face did not change.
“Be scared, be scared, Kowaiine-!”
“Cold squall.”
A blue streak passed by Scarlett.
Blois’ roundhouse kick hit Smile Face directly in the face, but he disappeared for a moment again.
“Ah, it was dangerous-“
Smiling Face, who appeared a few steps next to me, waved his arms wildly and trembled.
In short, it appears that the answer was correct.
Although it was blocked by his arm.
Blois struck again.
Meanwhile, sharp hail flew from the sky.
Blood shot, blood shot, blood shot!
Smile Face was completely away from the omnidirectional hail and the agile Blois’s martial arts attack area.
It happened in just a few seconds.
“Ha, there are people who are preventing Miss Scarlett and I from connecting, so I can’t help it. They say I can’t get married if my family is against it, so I feel sorry. Miss Scarlett, I will accept the Star Oath next time. I will contact you separately. At that time, please come out alone except Miss Blois and Miss Solena.”
When Solena and Blois tried to chase him again, he suddenly used his flying suit to fly into the air and disappeared in an instant.
“…”
As the object disappeared from sight, Scarlett, who was surrounded by a circular pattern with an eye glow, also came to her senses.
She lost consciousness and fell down.
“…Doctor? Scarlett has lost her mind.”
Solena said, holding Scarlett.
She was shaking with anxiety.
After a while, the answer came back.
She was told to return to base.
Fortunately, the skill did not activate.
If that were the case, a pattern symbolizing the star oath would have been engraved on Scarlett’s body.
“… Scarlett, are you okay? He seemed like someone possessed by something. Although I was originally a child with a strong sense of justice, I’ve never done anything like this… “Ignore what the doctor said.”
Solena hugged Scarlett and, together with Blois, teleported to a predetermined location.
Because there were too many citizens watching.
Many of them had already filmed the battle between Smile Face and the magical girls.
It wasn’t a normal headache.
As a result, Smile Face would be recognized by citizens as the worst villain even before B.H announced it.
Magical girls have never struggled this much, at least not on Paramas’ side.
“I can’t say that.”
Mayuri, who completed her transformation and returned to a beautiful academy student with short blue hair, answered calmly.
She also released her transformation, her yellow hair flowing down to her shoulders, and Joo Yena said.
“… Huh.”
A little while later, a transport plane for them arrived.
***
Haha, I’ll go after it.
Wouldn’t it be great if there was a real teleport like magical girls, or even a transport plane?
Or, as they misunderstanding, if there was super high technology, all I could do was wear a flying suit and fly.
Choi Song-hee’s technology was sufficient, but teleportation was difficult to imitate with scientific technology.
Magical girls had superpowers.
On the outside, it may have looked like I was teleporting, but in reality, I was just toiling away like a goose on the surface of the water, flapping its feet wildly.
The stamina is as strong as the stamina, and all the energy is drained away.
Using invisibility and slow at the same time was always difficult, so I always had to save my strength when escaping.
“The rice was almost ready.”
I honestly didn’t know that Scarlett would go crazy and activate Uriel’s Mirror on me.
I felt tickled when I saw it in the game, but when I actually became the target, I didn’t feel good.
“…Be an outsider.”
Having been hit by the skill, I became aware of my mouth fluttering without realizing it.
In short, it was all the effect of the skill.
I felt my mouth talking freely, but I could not stop it or change its content.
Fortunately, it seemed to have been conveyed in fairly ambiguous terms… But as someone who had only heard those words, I wondered what kind of bullshit this was… But maybe the sexual harassment was a bit severe.
I also felt a little guilty.
It is true that I had a similar relationship with those magical girls in the game played from the perspective of the Paramas Empire, but… I had a bitter smile on my face as I thought that there was a lot of room for misunderstanding that I had mixed bodies in my past life.
If we meet later, we might really be left behind.
I almost got the Star Oath this time, so maybe next time will be my last.
… Anyway, I think it’s a good thing.
