About becoming a magical girl

"Ah, yes! Speaking of this..."

Saori came to Evenier's side, clutching the carton bag in her hand.

"This is a gift from Rin to my senior!"

Evenier was a little taken aback.

"Huh? Rin...she..."

"Rin is fine now."

Saori covered her mouth and smiled, her eyes narrowed into crescent moons.

"I went to the hospital to visit her in the morning, and she is fine now. So seniors don't have to worry too much. It's just that I can't come to watch seniors' performances because I'm still in quarantine. She seems to be very sad. .”

Although Rin is not a fan of Avnir in the popular sense, she admires Avnir a lot.

Rin can be regarded as a carefree but serious and desperate character. In a sense, the relationship between Rin and Evenier was actually a relationship between a boss and a subordinate, but when it comes to some fighting skills, Evenier He is also Rin's master.

Of course, the meaning of "Master" is different from the "Master" in Fengling's poem.

What Professor Avenier taught Rin was the ability to grasp and use weapons and the power of order, while for Fengling Shiyin, who had a completely different fighting style, what Professor Avenir gave her was the selection and change of strategic methods to deal with different types of erosive bodies.

"That's right... if she can regain her spirits... I hope she can get well soon..."

Eveni paused, then smiled again.

"Next time, Rin is discharged from the hospital, please be sure to invite her to watch my performance."

"I will definitely, Rin and I will definitely come to Senior's next performance!"

Saori smiled happily, and put down the gift bag in her hand.

There was still a little time before the performance started, there was a brief silence between the two, and Saori suddenly said: "That...Actually, Senior, I have one...very important matter and I would like to ask Senior for help..."

Saori buried her gaze deeply, her black hair was hanging down from her forehead, and Evenier couldn't see her expression clearly.

"It's... about Rin..."

Eveniel measured his sight and looked at her.

Saori seems to have a very quiet and laid-back personality, but in fact she is very strong and independent inside.

Perhaps it was because she lived in an orphanage since she was a child... But anyway, this was the first time Evenier heard words like "please" and "request" from her mouth.

"It's okay, as long as I can do what I can, please don't care and just say it."

"Um……"

The sound of yarn weaving is as thin as fireflies.

As if she had made up her mind, she took a deep breath.

"Could you ask senior...to take, take back Rin's...'agent' qualification..."

"Ok?"

Saori's request was unexpected by Evenier, and she was slightly stunned.

The existence of an "agent" is related to too many confidential matters, so it is particularly strict in some respects.

Moreover, it is not an easy task to dismiss the identity of "agent". For those who have resonated with "Order", her body no longer belongs to her completely.

Her strength, her body, and her soul all exist in the "order", and no longer "resonating" means being "separated" forever, and the consequence is to "lose" step by step, as if disconnected Like the connection to the storage disk, if one loses access to "Order", the ability to resonate with "Order" will be lost step by step. At the same time, the memory of being an "agent" will also quickly disappear.

In other words, both physical ability and memory will return to the time before becoming an "agent".

It can also have a huge negative impact on the body.

and……

"Withdraw... qualifications? You mean, let me remove her... from the 'agent'?"

"Yes……"

Saori answered softly but firmly.

Evenier looked at Saori, but Saori looked away, Evenier was silent for a while, and sighed softly in his heart.

"Well... If this is Rin Shiina's idea, I will help with the application."

Due to the death and disappearance of Qing Lan and others, the combat effectiveness of the agents is now in short supply, and the few remaining people are juniors with less than a year's experience.

From a rational point of view, now is not the time to allow Rin Shiina to withdraw from the agency, but for Evenier, she does not want to see the lives of these juniors disappear in that way.

Besides, Shiina Rin is seriously infected, and it may be difficult to return to the establishment as a combat force within a month.

If Shiina Rin wants to quit, then Efnir will definitely not force her to stay.

"Afterwards, I will ask Nami to send you the materials required for the application. If possible, within four days..."

"Sorry, senior..."

Saori interrupted Evenier's words.

"what happened?"

"Actually... Rin never said that he wanted to quit, it was just my personal request..."

Saori lowered her head, and it took Evenier a second to digest the meaning expressed in Saori's words.

Evanil frowned slightly.

"You mean..."

"Senior also knows Rin's character, she will never say 'want to quit'... even if I beg her, she is not willing to dismiss the 'agent' status."

Saori's face showed bitterness, and under her bangs, the corners of her lips turned white from being bitten.

"But... Senior, you have also seen that Shiina Rin is in a situation where she can no longer continue to fight. She is exhausted, she should rest...Senior, Rin is more important to me than my life , no matter what, I don't want to see her fall in front of me again..."

Saori's voice trembled a little, and Evenier pursed her lips and listened quietly.

In the big battle a few days ago, Rin took over the interception mission of almost all the erosive bodies in a division, but in the battle, Rin lost his coherence due to exhaustion, so he was severely infected in the siege of the eroded bodies, this For Saori, who was transferred to the rear defense line due to injury, it was like a condemnation of her.

Seeing Rin being carried into the operating room covered in blood, Saori cried hoarsely. In the past few days, she has accompanied Rin in the hospital every day.

"So... Senior Evnir, I ask you to do me this favor... As long as Rin retires from the 'agent', I can do whatever you want... I will definitely work harder and fill the vacancy left by Rin with my own hands!"

"This kind of thing..."

After listening to Saori's words, Evenier shook her head lightly.Zeng Jin, Evenier thought the same way, she knew how difficult it was to do so.

And the problem is not here.

"Saori, do you know what it means to break away from the 'Orderer'? This matter must require the consent of her and the command."

"Of course I know!"

Saori bowed her head stubbornly.

"Since you know..."

Efnir looked into Saori's dark eyes and sighed softly.

"Sorry, this matter needs to be confirmed by Shiina Rin anyway, I can't ignore her will and deprive her of her agency status, so... I can't help you."

"Ex...Senior...Only you have the ability to help me..."

"It's not this problem... I can persuade her for you, but this matter cannot go beyond her own wishes."

"I have persuaded her many times!"

Evenier pursed her lips, sat down beside Saori, and gently held Saori's hand.

Saori's shoulders trembled slightly.

"Saori, can you tell me why? Tell me your truest thoughts."

"I'm afraid... I'm afraid that Rin will never come back..."

"Rin, she'll be fine."

Efnir tightly held Saori's cold and trembling hands, leaned over gently, and comforted her softly:

"She is an 'agent', as long as there is no 'alienation', she will not be assimilated into a 'residue', and she will come back."

"I know she will come back...but, senior...it is because she will come back that I am afraid..."

Evenier pursed her lips and said nothing, while Saori clenched her fingers tightly, her voice trembling uncontrollably.

"Senior...Senior, you must know better than me...the road that 'us' these 'agents' walk, what is waiting for us at the end of the road...whether it is revenge, protection, or naivety and impulsiveness, the sky will clear after the rain, the sun will rise in the morning, and the moon will set at night. All Rin wants is this natural day. You must understand, senpai...but...if...if she continues to fight like this...Rin...Rin will definitely..."

Must die.

This is a word that can be understood immediately without saying it.

"I... I just don't want Rin to...be like Shiyin...become like Senior Qinglan..."

"She's going to leave me or something..."

"I absolutely can't..."

"I dare not think..."

"I can't lose her...Even if I replace her, even if she forgets me, it doesn't matter if I bear her battle, her life, everything about her...Senior...please , as long as you can help me..."

The air became cold and quiet.

"Even so, then..."

Evenier looked at Saori without saying a word, and didn't say anything for a long time. Saori waited silently and spoke slowly.

"Senior... even if it's just my wishful thinking, it's still true. Please help me..."

Saori's every word hit Evenier's heart.

but……

"Sorry……"

Efnir let go of Saori's hand.

"senior……"

Saori raised her head and stared at her blankly.

Evanil raised his hand and gently wiped away the teardrops from the corners of her eyes.

"I can't help you with this."

Evanil sighed and said.

Saori's eyes were flickering, she looked up at Evenier for a long time before lowering her gaze.

"I... got it... I'm sorry, I said something strange to you senior, please forget it..."

"Gauze..."

At this time, the door was pushed open, and Nami Shino appeared outside the door.

"Evenier, the show... is about to start~"

……

------------

17. Start

In this season, it is actually a rather "malicious" thing to choose to perform in broad daylight under the bright sun.

The scorching sun, the free and easy sweat.

Where the crowd gathers, there will be a settling heat, and the open venue will become a stove at this time.

Under the stage built, Evenier stood looking straight ahead.

Although there was nothing to be seen below the stage, the cheers came to Avenier's ears like a summer heat wave.

She made the final adjustments to the headset, and Shino Mi Nami's voice came.

"It's really grand, Evenier, chan~"

"Don't call me that."

"Don't be a stranger, don't fans like to call you that?"
