This is not the date I wanted.

"What do you think? Human, if you agree to our terms, I can give you countless wealth, power and beauty, and let you rule the world as the supreme ruler of mankind. I can even let go of the people behind you, except for Fatima who is in the way, who must be eliminated."

"I reject!"

"Shidao" rejected their invitation without hesitation.

"As long as I'm here, I will never allow anyone in my family to be harmed!"

As soon as he finished speaking, countless ice emerged from Shidao's feet and gathered into a majestic iceberg, freezing Wamba and Bigfoot Dido inside.

"Amazing……"

Everyone couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

However, just when everyone thought that the other party had been completely sealed by "Shidao", a crack appeared on the surface of the iceberg, and the crack continued to expand, and the entire iceberg began to tremble violently.

"This is?!"

"Shidao"'s expression suddenly changed, and he quickly used his spiritual power to create a barrier to protect everyone inside.

Boom! With a loud bang, the huge iceberg exploded, and the broken ice turned into bullets and hit the spiritual barrier fiercely.

Two seconds, just two seconds! The maximum output that the Ice Golem could achieve was broken by the enemy in such a short time.

"Kuku-mu-da-mu-da-mu-da!"

"Haha——What a foolish human! Do you really think that such a weak attack can seal us?"

Looking at the stunned expressions on everyone's faces, Wan Beier and Bigudido couldn't help but burst into triumphant laughter.

"Don't be careless! According to our feeling, Wan Belle and Bigudido are both as strong as perfect elves. With their immortality, they will be very difficult to deal with! Uh - why are you looking at me like that?"

Seeing everyone's eyes focused on him, Erya shrank his neck and muttered softly,

"I can't help it... If the boss isn't made stronger, the final battle won't look exciting..."

"I see. It looks like this is definitely not an enemy that can be easily defeated."

After hearing Niya's advice, a hint of solemnity appeared in Shidou's eyes.

"It looks like I have to use all my strength."

Full strength? Hearing this word, Shidou seemed very confused. In his opinion, the strength displayed by this "Gokawa Shidou" was far beyond his current level. However, these were not "his" full strength?

(Strange, was I that powerful in that comic book?)

"Mengyue, what he said is..."

"Shijiro, don't distract me."

After glaring at Shidou in dissatisfaction, Mengyue turned to look at "Shidou" with excitement and anticipation in her eyes.

(?)

Frowning in confusion, Shidou was depressed to find that not only Mengyue, but all the elves present seemed to know what "Gokawa Shidou" was going to do next. They held their breath and watched "his" actions intently.

(Eh? What’s going on? Am I the only one who doesn’t understand what’s going on?)

Then, under Shidou's puzzled gaze, "Shidou Gokawa", who was confronting the enemy at the time, slowly took out a magic wand inlaid with a heart-shaped gem from the inside pocket of his school uniform.

...Magic wand?!

"I am the guardian of the spirits of this world - Gokawa Shido. Hula hula barbalala - power of the spirits, grant me the power to protect everything from evil!"

After reciting a line of unclear meaning, "Gokawa Shidao" raised his magic wand and shouted loudly,

"Magical Girl—Transform!"

"puff----------------------!!!"

25 The World in Books (X)

==============================

"Magical Girl—Transform!"

"puff----------------------!!!"

Shido Gokawa burst out laughing on the spot.

(Oh my god? What did I just say in the comic? Magical girl?)

Is that the magical girl? The one that is very popular among little girls and some adults? The one that signs a contract with a mysterious beast? The one that uses the power of magic to transform? The one that wears a light and gorgeous dress, sings about love and peace, and fights against evil forces - the magical girl?

Who wants to be a magical girl? Me?!

Shidao was immediately overwhelmed by this huge amount of information.

(No, no, no, no! There must be something wrong. The explosion just now caused tinnitus in my ears, so I am hallucinating. That's right! This must be it!)

After comforting himself in his heart, Shidao finally regained his composure and looked up at the battle again.

However, reality is often cruel.

As "Itsuka Shidou" finished speaking, a colorful glow enveloped "Shidou"'s entire body, and the school uniform of Raizen High School disappeared without a trace, revealing the most primitive silhouette of a man (with harmonious key parts).

The originally slightly hard body lines gradually became softer under the baptism of colored light, and the legs and waist were obviously reduced. In contrast, the hips and chest gradually became fuller, and the hair gradually became longer and spread to the waist, showing the unique charm of women.

“—Oooooohhhhhhhhhh!!”

Mengyue, Erya and Meijiu clenched their fists and shouted excitedly as if they had seen a celebrity's crazy fans.

Although Origami said nothing, his eyes were fixed straight ahead, as if he wished he could turn into a camera with X-ray capabilities to imprint this scene deeply in his mind.

Although the others turned their heads away with blushes, they still stole a glance from the corner of their eyes from time to time.

As for Gokawa Shido himself...

“Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo!”

Unable to bear watching all this, he fell to his knees with his head in his hands, uttering miserable cries.

"Wan Belle, there is an amazing energy gathering around that human. I have a bad feeling."

"I am also Bigudido. Let's take care of him quickly before he completes his transformation."

At this time, Bigudio and Wanbel no longer had the arrogant attitude they had before, and there was a hint of fear in their eyes.

Without any hesitation, after realizing the danger posed by their opponent, Bigeye Dido and Ivory immediately attacked "Shido Gokawa", trying to knock him down before he completed his transformation.

However, something incredible happened. No matter it was energy cannons, curses, magic, or the most direct physical attacks, when they touched the glow around "Gokawa Shidao", they would disappear without a trace like a drop in the ocean.

"How can this be!?"

Bigudio and Wanbel looked surprised.

“Hahahaha—mudamudamuda!”

Erya put his hands on his hips, threw his head back and laughed triumphantly.

"When a magical girl transforms, no attack can cause any damage. She is completely invincible. This is a universally recognized rule in the industry!"

The transformation of "Itsuka Shido" is gradually coming to an end. Snow-white garter stockings, light maid skirt, translucent maid headband, cute four-leaf clover hair accessories... one by one, exquisite clothing parts appear on "Itsuka Shido".

Finally, the colorful light faded away, and the young man who had been standing there disappeared. Instead, there appeared a beautiful girl wearing a maid outfit, surrounded by magical flashing effects, as stunningly beautiful as the moon and flowers.

"Whether it's the innocent elves or this peaceful world, I will never let you bad guys take it away—"

The girl raised her orchid finger, picked up the magic wand which was obviously longer than the first one, and declared in a light voice,

"Pure white! Shining! The miracle star of love and justice - Orihime☆! Come on!"

"puff------!"

Shidao finally couldn't hold it in any longer and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Ah-Orihime☆! You're so beautiful! I love you so much! I'm dying!"

Mengyue couldn't help but scream with excitement.

"Niya...what on earth is...going on?"

Shidou asked with a trembling voice after struggling to stand up from the ground.

"Oh—that's a long story."

Ahem - Erya coughed lightly, closed his eyes, and imitated the narrator in a serious tone.

“An ordinary high school boy chosen by fate—Gokawa Shido! On his way home from school, he met a beautiful woman who was in a coma. He saved her out of kindness and learned the truth about the world.”

It turns out that there are rare creatures called elves in this world. They live in a neighboring world adjacent to the real world. They silently use their power to adjust the ecological balance of the world while living an isolated life.

However, one day, an evil magic organization in the real world, BEM (unrelated to a certain multinational corporation in reality), invaded the neighboring world, attempting to take the power of the elves for themselves, and then use this power to dominate the entire world.

Then, the surviving elves escaped from the evil magician's pursuit with great difficulty and were scattered in the real world.

In order to save the elves from dire straits, Gokawa Shidao made up his mind to abandon his originally stable and peaceful daily life, signed a contract with the elves, took up weapons and fought against the evil magician.

"However——what I never expected was that Gokawa Shidao overlooked an important issue!"

Suddenly, Erya shouted louder and louder.

"what is the problem?"

The corners of Shidao's mouth twitched slightly, and an uneasy premonition came over him.

"Since ancient times, every member of the elves, without exception, is a woman of unparalleled beauty. Therefore, only women can bring the power of elves to the extreme. If men are allowed to use the power of elves, the power will be greatly reduced. And at the same time, in order to successfully capture the elves, DEM has gradually become more serious, and the enemies sent are stronger each time. Itsuka Shido also feels that the battle is getting more and more difficult. Therefore, in order to protect the safety of the elves, to protect beloved families, and to protect world peace! Itsuka Shido finally made a realization--"

After a brief pause here, Erya took a deep breath and then shouted excitedly.

“I’m not a man anymore!!!”

“This logic is definitely weird, right????!!!!!!”

Shidou complained in a voice that was almost a roar.

"Ah? Are you worried about some weird welfare scenes? Then you can rest assured, this comic is a healthy book for all ages, and there are no clothes-bursting tentacles or anything like that."

“I can’t rest assured at all!!”

Shidou felt like he was going crazy.

"Besides, what on earth were you talking about at the beginning? The comics we drew at that time didn't have these messed-up settings."

"Hey~ boy. This isn't the comic you guys showed up at the convention. It's another one I drew privately afterwards. I designed a new world view and put the characters in the story into a new story. It's similar to a galgame fan disc."

Erya explained with a shrug.

"Well, as for who came up with the original story, young man, you should have an idea of ​​it."

"..."

Shidou couldn't help but fall silent and turned his gaze to Ryougi Yumezuki (script + planner), who was in the most excited mood at the moment.

"Why did you hide it from me?"

Shidou couldn't help asking. In response, Nia (Main Artist①) shrugged and said as a matter of course.

"Maybe they thought you would definitely object if you knew, so they did it secretly without telling you."

"Well……"

Shidou was speechless for a moment. Indeed, if he knew that everyone was going to do such a thing, he would definitely oppose it firmly.

"Eh…wait. Did you say 'everyone'?"

Suddenly noticing something strange in Nia's words, Shidou turned his head sharply and looked at Kotori and the others in disbelief.

After feeling Shidou's gaze, everyone looked away at the same time.

"Don't, don't get me wrong! I'm not interested in my stupid brother's gender-swapped comics. I was just afraid that if I refused, Sister Mengyue would suffer from a reverse flow of spiritual power due to pressure, so I had no choice but to agree to help!" - by Gokawa Kotori (blackened)

"Sorry... I was inspired by Meng Yue and Niya's aura... and it was surprisingly interesting after I drew it... I just followed the flow..." - by Nanashi (Main Artist②)

"Well, that! I'd like to make it clear that I'm not dissatisfied with your current gender - I was just careless for a moment and was deceived by the sweet words of my compatriots." - by Yakuya (assistant artist①)

"Supplementary. But later I was completely immersed in it." - by Xi Xian (assistant artist ②)

"No problem. No matter what Shidou is like, I will accept everything without hesitation." - by Origami (assistant artist ③ + background)

"I'm sorry for hiding this from you, darling~ But I couldn't refuse such a wonderful event." - by Mijiu (clothing material provided)

"I'm sorry... Mr. Shidou..." - by Yoshino (erasing pencil lines)

"Shidou Shidou - I helped too! I helped to go to the art shop to stock up on all sorts of props. I followed the method Shidou taught me before and bought everything quickly. Isn't that awesome?" - by Tohka (errand boy).

"Hmm, hmm... It's amazing... Tohka... Haha... Hahaha..."
