The Dimensional Tavern of the Mefilas Alien

"I have no need to explain to you."

After saying this, Sakura Kyoko twisted her arm forcefully, killing Kyubey completely. Then, she pulled the tip of her spear from the ground and hoisted Kyubey's corpse onto her shoulder.

The Kemur she transformed into was Guts's partner. In terms of pure combat strength, they were about equal in strength, not particularly powerful. However, the Kemur had a special ability: the elimination fluid sprayed from the funnel-shaped organ on their heads could teleport enemies to another dimension, and could also be used for spatial teleportation. She had just used this ability to ambush Kyubey.

Sakura Kyoko waited for a while, but didn't see any new Kyubeys appear, which made her a little disappointed. She had hoped to catch a few more Kyubeys while she was there.

Although Murphy made the deal with Homura Akemi, Kyoko Sakura felt that since she had obtained the monster girl's transformation device and become Homura Akemi's ally, she had a responsibility to help share the burden.

But that's okay. If Cupid doesn't come looking for them, they can go looking for him!

She didn't believe Kyubey would be willing to give up all the magical girls.

Homura Akemi gave this a thumbs up. Great minds think alike; she was planning the same thing.

"But we can't overlook those hidden witches."

Before leaving, Homura Akemi asked Murphy for some more red and white balls.

In order to find a way to turn magical girls and witches back into humans, the more research materials the better.

……

After Homura and the others left, Murphy returned to the lab to continue modifying Jamila.

Just as he said, everything went well.

"You're awake! The transformation went very smoothly!"

When Jamila woke up, she saw Murphy's huge face hovering above her.

"Manager..." Jamila sat up groggily. He had been anesthetized the whole time and had no idea what had happened. Now he just felt pain all over his body.

"what?"

He suddenly let out a soft "hmm".

"Is this my hand?" Jamila raised her palm in disbelief.

What came into view was not a withered, mummy-like arm, but an arm that, although slightly thin, was no different from that of a normal person.

“Take a look!” Murphy handed Jamila a mirror.

In the mirror, a gaunt human figure is gazing at Jamila.

"I've really turned back?" Jamila touched her cheek in disbelief. The man in the mirror did the same.

"I'm back to normal!"

Jamila could no longer contain her joy and shouted it out.

He really wanted to cry, to have a good, cathartic cry.

However, after howling for a long time, Jamila realized that she hadn't shed a single tear.

"What's going on?" Jamila looked to Murphy for help.

"Is it because I haven't had any water for too long?" Jamila asked hopefully, her lips trembling. "If I drink some water, will I feel better?"

"I advise you not to do anything reckless."

Murphy shook his head.

"You've only been transformed into a human form; you're still Jamila at heart. If you drink water carelessly, you'll be severely injured, if not killed!"

Jamila couldn't believe it: "Manager, am I really not human again? I look exactly the same as before!"

Murphy shrugged: "There's nothing I can do. I have limited equipment here, and I don't have your original body data. This is the limit I can achieve now."

Before his transmigration, Murphy wasn't a scholar, and after transmigrating, he had never been to Earth. Although he remembered what humans looked like, he didn't actually know much about detailed human data. His only reference points were two magical girls whose human nature was uncertain. The fact that he could reverse engineer Jamila's appearance in less than two days, instead of turning her into Jamila-chan, was already an astonishing feat of skill.

Chapter Thirty-Seven: The War Scientist and the New Guest

Jamila reluctantly accepted this reality.

Well, at least I've returned to human form. If I go back to Earth, I won't have to worry about my family not being able to accept it.

“This modification isn’t entirely without its advantages!” Murphy reassured Jamila.

"Take a good look at it!"

Jamila closed her eyes and tried it, and in a flash, she transformed back into her monster form.

Jamila nodded in satisfaction: "Very good. Continue to look the same way while you work at the store!"

'Could it be that the shop manager chose to modify me so that I could stay in my monster form?' For a moment, Jamila couldn't help but have this thought.

But he immediately felt guilty: 'How could I think so negatively of the store manager? She pulled me out of despair! She's done so much for me!'

He was half right. Murphy had indeed intentionally retained his monster form, but modifying it was truly impossible. Everyone has their specialty; having been a villain for most of his life, although he hadn't actually invaded anyone, Murphy was genuinely not good at healing and saving lives.

"Oh, right, I promised Homura I'd help her find a way to turn magical girls and witches back into humans. You'll be my assistant from now on!"

“No problem!” Jamila agreed immediately.

Although he wasn't very knowledgeable about biotechnology, he could still follow orders and lend a hand. More importantly, he was worried that in his absence, Murphy might casually give the magical girls or witches a monster form.

So, for the next few days, the two of them spent most of their time in the laboratory, studying the witches.

Homura Akemi and Kyoko Sakura also came a few times. But since there were no customers, the two of them didn't stay long and went back to continue catching witches and Kyubey.

The power of these two monster girls is practically invincible on Earth right now. Even with Kyubey's influence and many magical girls teaming up, they are no match for Homura Akemi and Kyoko Sakura.

In just a few days, witches in most of the Tokyo metropolitan area, centered around Mitakihara, were wiped out.

"Senior, should we continue fighting them?"

Sayaka, who had been following Homura Akemi's art, suddenly felt lost.

Instead of witnessing the invasion of the Dark Legion, many people were rescued from the clutches of the witches.

For a moment, she couldn't tell which side was the good guy.

"I knew Homura Akemi wouldn't be a bad person!" Madoka, with her simple mind, smiled happily.

Mami Tomoe shook her head: "We can't be careless yet. She might just be trying to eliminate her rivals."

"So what are you planning to do, senior? Join forces with the magical girls outside?" Sayaka was torn.

“Those magical girls have all been completely bewitched by Kyubey.” Mami Tomoe smiled bitterly; she didn’t want to become Kyubey’s cannon fodder.

She looked at Xiaoyuan and Sayaka.

Perhaps, all I need to do is protect those around me!

……

"If this capability were added to the bar, it would be much more effective at attracting customers!"

In the bar, Murphy spoke with great enthusiasm.

Jamila sighed silently.

These past few days, he's been studying witches with Murphy.

As he expected, Murphy originally intended to directly transform the witches into human form and then reshape their consciousness and emotions.

This approach isn't necessarily bad. After all, according to Murphy's modifications, the witches' bodies and souls can be reunited, and their hearts, once plunged into despair, can rediscover themselves. In a sense, they've recovered, so there's nothing inherently wrong with that.

But these witches are different from him. Even he, an adult, developed a deep hatred for the world and loathed his mutated body after experiencing misfortune. Could these children, once consumed by despair, truly return to a normal life if they simply became beings remarkably similar to humans?

"Ugh, you humans are such a hassle. Isn't a strong body a good thing?"

Despite saying that, Murphy still revised the research plan, trying every possible way to make the witches truly turn back into humans.

As a result, the flowers you plant with care may not bloom, while the willows you plant without intention may thrive.

In the process of studying witches, Murphy accidentally extracted the ability to seduce humans from their barriers.

This ability was originally used by witches to lure and capture humans. But Murphy improved it, removing the deceptive parts, and it became a powerful locator.

"Now is the time to see the results!"

Murphy snapped the new program into the bar, and an invisible wave immediately spread out from the bar into unknown dimensions.

However, a minute passed, ten minutes passed, half an hour passed...

"Shop...shopkeeper, why don't we go back and study the witch first?" Jamila said cautiously.

"No!" Murphy stubbornly stayed behind the bar, refusing to leave.

"My research is flawless, and I'm sure there will be even more guests coming!"

Jamila sighed inwardly.

Through working together for a while, he learned a lot more about Murphy.

He actually had great respect for Murphy's knowledge and technical skills, and felt a sense of awe and reverence for him.

However, he finally understood why Murphy's inventions always had some subtle accidents.

Murphy is a pure war scientist!

Although he disliked violence (as he claimed) and never actually engaged in acts of aggression, all his research had always been geared towards applications in warfare.

This habit was so deeply ingrained that even if Murphy regained his pre-transmigration humanity, it would be difficult to reverse it all at once. Therefore, starting with his renovation of the tavern, his inventions frequently encountered unexpected setbacks. It was all due to his lingering wartime mentality.

Just as Jamila was pondering how to persuade Murphy, the door to the bar opened.

A noble young man with a crescent moon tattooed on his forehead, red tattoos on his cheeks, golden eyes, white hair, a long sword at his waist, and a fur coat wrapped around his shoulders walked in.

The young nobleman glanced at Murphy and Jamila, then silently found a spacious spot to sit down.

"Lord Sesshomaru, wait for me!"

A small green creature, barely reaching the young master's knees, hurriedly followed behind him, carrying a staff made of human heads that was almost twice its own height.

"Human? Monster? Goblin?" Jamila glanced at the young master's pointed ears and guessed in her mind.

"Welcome! What would you two like to order?"

Murphy appeared in the past with near-instantaneous speed.

He knew his modifications were effective! Look, now we have guests!

"Alas!"

The little green thing was startled.

"You shopkeeper, how rude of you!"

He jumped up and down, angrily waving the staff with the severed head.

"Feel sorry!"

Murphy looked down at the little gadget: "I haven't had any guests here in a long time, I'm a little excited!"

Murphy's candor surprised the little green gadget.

The little green thing coughed twice: "Alright, since there are extenuating circumstances, I'll be magnanimous and not pursue the matter further!"

Chapter Thirty-Eight: My Love from the Star

The little green thing looked at Murphy with a sympathetic expression.

He couldn't sense any demonic energy from Murphy. It seemed this guy was a weak little demon who could only make a living by running a tavern.

Thinking of this, the little green thing couldn't help but puff out its chest.

As expected, Lord Jaken was wise. For a small demon to survive, it must attach itself to a powerful demon! Choosing to follow Lord Sesshomaru was undoubtedly the wisest decision of his life!

Sesshomaru, who had remained silent, was carefully observing the entire tavern.

He is the chief dog demon of the Western Kingdom and the eldest son of King Douya.

About 200 years ago, his father, Toga, passed away. Before his death, Toga bequeathed his two swords to his two sons.

Sesshomaru, as the eldest son, received the harmless Tenseiga. The other sword, the Tessaiga, which possessed immense power, was left by Toga to his youngest son, Inuyasha, whom he had with a human woman.

Sesshomaru was not satisfied with this arrangement. Therefore, he and Jaken searched for his father's grave, intending to forcibly take the Tessaiga.

But just as they were searching around, a strange door suddenly appeared in front of Sesshomaru and Jaken.
