I, Madoka Kaname, am just a Kamen Rider passing by

However, this kind of thing is only exaggerated from the perspective of Ryoko, who grew up in a relatively peaceful Japan. In the past, compared with the First and Second World Wars, Kurumi was not even a fraction of the others. In the Middle Ages, the Black Death alone caused tens of millions of deaths. In the recent past, the number of unnatural deaths in the Middle East each year is in the tens of thousands.

In comparison, apart from the big one caused by Takamiya Mio, the casualties caused by other elves are probably not as many as the number of deaths caused by humans killing each other every year.

Given the current situation, what Ryoko should do is to find a way to get rid of Nightmare, and the orders conveyed to Ryoko by his superiors are nothing more than messages of this type.

However, poor Miss Kusakabe is facing a serious and troublesome problem.

Kusakabe Ryoko frowned slightly and looked around. She saw that in the meeting room, which was usually crowded with people who would roll out of their beds obediently even for late-night gatherings, only a few people were left. This included the "problem girl" Origami Tobiichi in her eyes, the newcomer Mikie Okamine, the mechanic "Xiaomi" who had just joined, and Mana Takamiya who was transferred back to Japan from Northern Europe.

Yes, in the conference room that used to hold at least 30 people, there were only seven people left, including Liaozi himself.

Most of them chose to retire and continue their studies for reasons such as going to the toilet late at night, being chased by ugly concrete pillars and forced to escape through the window, having their matcha toothpaste replaced by mustard, having their quilt stuffed with ice cubes in the middle of the night in winter, having their dormitories bombarded with herring cans and mortars every now and then, and having methane explosions in the toilet on weekends. Or they were tortured by pranks and became so nervous that they chose to return to the countryside to find an honest man to marry.

Although we applied for additional teammates, the reply from above was just to wait and see, as new members would be recruited and trained in half a year. Before that, well, you have to figure it out on your own.

Moreover, due to the recruitment and training of new personnel, as well as the previous loss of the manifestation device, AST's funds are very tight and they can only barely guarantee the payment of salaries to teammates. Even the subsidies for attacks have shrunk a lot.

Honestly speaking, half a year is already very fast, considering the recruitment, selection, adaptability and usage training of the display device. After all, magicians are not the rank-and-file soldiers who were in short supply in the late World War II. Everyone just needs to be given a gun and be able to shoot.

However, even so, Ryoko still cannot ignore Nightmare's affairs. After all, protecting ordinary citizens is the reason and meaning of AST's existence.

"Please leave it to me. I can handle the mission against Nightmare on my own."

Mana seemed to see Ryoko's embarrassment and told her her thoughts in a calm tone. She didn't feel any pressure at all, as if she was discussing whether to have salty or sweet tofu pudding for breakfast.

With a blue ponytail and a slender and petite body, she looks like just a junior high school student no matter how you look at her. However, according to the higher-ups, this Takamiya Shinna is a rare elite magician in the world who has a record of beheading elves many times.

"That's what we said, but we can't accept it if we just watch. Let's do this. The time of action is tomorrow after school. The location is in the residential area. After Nightmare walks into the deserted area, AST will hold him back, and the main attack will be left to Mana."

"Well...I don't care."

With his chin supported by his hand, Mana just looked at Liaozi calmly, without shaking his head, but with an indifferent expression.

"..."

On the other side of the conference room, Origami, who had remained silent the entire time, frowned as she stared at Nightmare, also known as Kurumi's face, on the screen.

If Origami remembered correctly, this person seemed to be a regular customer of her sister Yuan's store, often visiting around 10 o'clock in the evening, and sister Yuan seemed to have a good chat with her and would wait until she left before closing the store.

Should we warn Sister Yuan who is chatting and laughing with Tokisaki Kurumi?

Getting too close to elves is not a good thing after all.

No, there was no need to worry about it now. As long as Takamiya Mana and AST's actions went smoothly, Nightmare's existence would become a thing of the past, and there would be no need to remind Sister Madoka.

……

"Yes...I understand. I will continue to pay attention. M...BOSS."

After replying softly, Nanashi hung up the phone with a melancholy look in his eyes.

——What on earth am I doing here…

Nanashi, who was squatting on the toilet, let out a long sigh while deleting the call records on his mobile phone.

In order to avoid the various surveillance devices in the Elf Apartment, Seven Sins had to squat on the toilet and report to Faust about what was happening in Ratatosk and the Gokawa family.

But does it really make sense to do this?

In the eyes of Seven Sins, Faust could just ask Honjo Nia to use her invincible angel "Google" to search, so what's the point of planting himself as a "spy"?

Having said that, in order to take revenge on the "God" (devil), the Seven Sins have no choice but to accept the invitation from Faust, even if the road ahead is hell.

Because in the coming Day of Judgment, all the elves died, including the friends cherished by the Seven Sins.

This future is unbearable.

Taking the present as an opportunity, she will join forces with Faust to subvert the predicted future.

As his thoughts extended to this point, Nanashi's originally decadent and worried eyes became strong.

——All this is for Yoshino.

Chapter 149 Look, Coriander is smiling like a child (Mist)

Her long pink hair was cut short to her neck, her light pink eyes sparkled in the morning light, and her neat and meticulous high school uniform perfectly set off her face.

Facing the mirror, Xiaoyuan, who was a little surprised by her new look, kept rubbing the "fake flesh" on her face. But no matter how she did it, there was no flaw in this fake face.

"Lin, this disguise is amazing, it feels exactly like the real thing!"

There was a faint smile on Xiaoyuan's face, just like a child who had got a new toy.

"As long as you're happy, Madoka, there's nothing in this world more precious than your smile." Even Homura is slightly inferior to her. After all, Madoka is not only extremely strong, but also extremely cute.

Besides, Xiaoyuan, you are talking nonsense, because that thing is real meat... It is cloned using cells extracted from the skin of Li Lin's body, the Principle of the Ring, and then processed using some alien technology to make the disguise prop.

The most important thing is that apart from the cost of the display device itself, it only costs 50,000 Japanese yen including the electricity bill. However, it is better not to tell such a disappointing truth casually, right?

It's like many people like to eat pig intestines, but they dare not look directly at the uncleaned intestines and the cooking process.

If Li Lin said that this thing was actually a ball of flesh that was still "alive" in every sense, and that she had stuck this disgusting thing on her little round face...she probably wouldn't be able to get out of bed and walk for a week.

“But, my voice is really a problem, isn’t it? Tanya’s voice is fine because of your acting skills, Lin, but I can’t imitate that kind of crazy and sharp voice in my daily life…”

Touching her throat, Xiaoyuan turned her head to look at Li Lin, and she considerately handed Xiaoyuan a Band-Aid-shaped voice changer.

"This...could it be..."

"Yes, it's the voice changer on the Fraxinus. When Homura Akemi went there before, she took it out from the material storage room. I've asked Homura to adjust it. Here, stick it on your throat."

Taking the Band-Aid from Li Lin's hand, Xiao Yuan stuck it on her throat. Then the sound that came out of her throat was no longer the crisp and pleasant sound, but a soft, steady and cute voice.

"Surprised, it's actually Coriander's voice, emmmm...Lin, should I put on a standard smile of Hyogo Kita Coriander now?"

"I don't think Rinne Madoka can do that kind of devilish smile. After all, it's a natural talent."

Madoka's current appearance was created by Li Lin based on her impression of Sonogami Rinne, and her name was also changed to Sonogami Rinne in a humorous way.

Half an hour later, the two stood at the door of the coffee shop and looked at each other.

"Have a nice trip, Madoka... No, I should call you Rinne now. Madoka Rinne, it sounds super powerful, doesn't it?"

Handing the exquisitely prepared bento to Xiaoyuan, the girl looked at her with a smile.

"I always feel that your words are full of malice. We have exchanged memories and souls. I know every inch of your skin, Li Lin. So, do you think I really don't know the joke about digital heroes? For example, the slanders like Yuan BQ and Qianqian Ji."

Soul exchange, as the name suggests, means cutting off a part of one's own soul and filling it into the other person's soul.

Normally, no one would do such a stupid thing as entrusting their soul to someone else, but these two were exceptions.

"Well... it's just a joke anyway. If you really want to cause trouble for them, after you find the coordinates of my original world, you can go to Shanghai and blow up their headquarters yourself."

However, compared to Blast TY, Li Lin would rather take Madoka and Homura to Japan to meet the creator of the story "Puella Magi Madoka Magica", the love warrior Mr. Gen Urobuchi.

I'm sure the scene will be quite interesting then.

……

torment.

For someone who is used to wearing women's clothing everyday, changing into pants and a tight-fitting school uniform is an extremely harsh living environment.

No, this is not torment, it is cruel torture, a punishment for the poor and helpless Miss Shiori who can only be beaten.

I really want to go home after school and turn into Shiori...

Well, this isn't a cross-dressing fetish, Shidou is just simply experiencing women's daily lives in order to better capture elves.

However, at this moment, Shidao's friend, the only difference from the protagonist being a good mother and the hedgehog-headed Doncho who traveled to another world, suddenly appeared in front of Shidao and shouted loudly.

"Go-he-shi-dao!"

He looked so passionate that he was just about to grab Shidou's collar and lift him up from his seat, but to be honest, if Shidou really wanted to fight, even with his bare hands, it would probably take ten Tonomachis to defeat him.

First, let eight Tonomachi come up and die to delay time, and let the remaining two, one to record the video and the other to call the police, and wait for the Japanese police to come and arrest Shidao.

"Why are you yelling so loudly?!"

Faced with his best friend's "Lion Roar", Shidao, who was already in a bad mood, roared back directly, while Tenmachi still looked at him as if he was a scumbag.

"Didn't you say before that Shiori-chan would go back home?"

During the period when the Seven Sins were not conquered, in order to prevent Shido from falling behind in his school courses, even though Kotori had become Shido's "cousin" Shiori, she still arranged for her to attend Shido's class on the grounds that Shido was sick and had asked for leave, and Shiori was interested in transferring to Raizen.

After that, although Shidao was obsessed with Shiori in private, he still used a male identity when he went to school, and Shiori rushed back to his hometown on the pretext of having something to do at home.

"Ah, that, that's what I said. What's the matter? Is there a problem?" Shidou tilted his head and looked at Hiroto Tenmachi in confusion, while other students in the classroom also cast curious glances at him.

"But I saw her in the market yesterday. After I followed her all the way, I found out that Miss Shiori is still living in the Itsuka family. Shidao, you are hiding a beautiful woman in your golden house! Shidao, you have changed!"

"Ha... First of all, Shiori is my... cousin. It's her freedom to go wherever she wants and do whatever she wants. Secondly, Tenmachi, following a girl, don't say such things in public..."

It seemed that because of Tenmachi's initial "roar", the whole class turned their attention to him, and the situation of Tenmachi's self-exposure of following Shidao's cousin, Gokawa Shiori, also reached the ears of these people, and Origami, who was sitting next to them, had already made a gesture to call the police.

However, before the incident could continue to develop, the head teacher Xiaozhu suddenly walked into the classroom with a girl with short pink hair.

Chapter 150: Rinne Madoka from Ryusei-juku

Transfer student.

She was a girl who had beauty beyond human like Tohka and Kurumi, with short pink hair, beige sweater and short skirt, and barely visible safety pants.

There were faint light particles flickering in her pink eyes, and there was a gentle smile on her face from beginning to end, but Shidou, no, it should be said that the side of Shiori noticed it.

The truth hidden under tenderness.

If you look closely now, you can see that the girl's forehead is sweating and her hands are shaking unconsciously.

I see…are you nervous?

Noticing this, Shidou breathed a sigh of relief for some reason.

Following the two elves, Tohka and Kurumi, there finally came a transfer student who is not an elf but looks like a normal person.

If three elves transfer to the school... Mr. Gokawa Shido really can't stand it!

Bathed in the gazes of the crowd, the girl gracefully and naturally wrote her name "Madami Rinne" on the blackboard, and then said softly: "My name is Madami Rinne... I am a transfer student from Ryusei Juku, and I hope everyone will give me guidance in the future~"

Meteor Academy?

Hearing this, Shidou and Origami beside him frowned in tacit understanding. The two looked at each other subconsciously, and the Origami master who usually knew everything just shook his head.

Obviously, Origami didn't seem to know anything about the Ryuseijuku school.

However, Shidao always felt that he had heard this term somewhere in the past, but he just couldn't remember it at the moment.

Hmm? Was it because of the reaction to the word Meteoric Academy? Shidou felt that Rinne had been looking at him and Origami since the beginning.

"Oh, there is one more thing. I am personally more interested in blended coffee. If there are students who are interested in coffee, you can discuss it with me."

Coffee?

And that tone, it always feels like someone else's.

It's an illusion... Maybe it's an illusion caused by the excessive pressure recently.

Noticing that Rinne wasn't going to say anything more, Teacher Kozue clapped her hands to indicate that it was over.

"Well, Madoka-san, can you please sit in the seat to Origami's right?"

It's more like a big help.

At least she felt more at ease around people she knew. To be honest, Madoka was still under a lot of pressure.

"No problem. But, teacher, just call me Rinne. It always feels weird to call me Madoka-kun."

But, high school life?

It's nice to experience it occasionally, but does this count as jumping directly from junior high school to high school? I haven't even finished junior high school yet, but the textbook knowledge in this world seems to be much simpler than that of Madoka's original world, so there shouldn't be any problem.

Well, their world is a hellish school where students start learning calculus in the third year of junior high school. Although it seemed normal at first, compared with the embarrassing Li Lin who barely passed the passing line and graduated from a certain university with all the credits, Xiaoyuan is actually a top student.

After flipping through the textbook a few times, Xiaoyuan let out a long sigh of relief.

After all, she was here to experience a happy high school life and to monitor Shidou and Kurumi. If she was trapped in cram school hell because of her lack of academic ability, it would be putting the cart before the horse. And in school, Madoka couldn't just use the Reincarnation Paradise to pause time and cheat.

Angels are not stand-ins, ordinary people can see them, and there are also many detection devices that can detect the reaction of spiritual power.

So, in order to avoid trouble, Xiaoyuan chose to live a normal campus life.
