Regarding the fact that my best friend is a magical girl

The door to my room was pushed open, and without caring whether I was dressed or not, Seruno rushed in with a worried look on her face and knelt down beside the bed.

"I'm sorry! I'm so useless!"

This idiot is giving nonsensical apologies again.

Yin Wei and Sirius were following behind her.

"I heard a noise and said I'd come and check it out."

The blonde idol stood behind Seruno, arms crossed, glaring at me with her tiny nostrils.

"You dared to challenge me while injured, and even pushed yourself to that point. Even if I showed mercy, you would still be in danger! I just wanted to test your strength, not take your lives!"

She changed out of her flashy gold stage outfit and was now wearing a white printed T-shirt and beige canvas shorts, a simple combination that changed her previous flamboyant image.

“Holding back would have made it impossible to win against you, but if I had used the blade to slash instead of striking, Miss Sirius probably wouldn’t have had the chance to use her last move.”

"Heh, are you trying to say you didn't lose?"

"No, I was the first one to fall, there's no denying that... I thought magical girls like you would have weaker physical abilities, but that was wishful thinking on my part."

A "mage-type" magical girl's physical abilities are weaker than a "warrior-type" like me. If it were Seruno, she definitely wouldn't be able to withstand my longsword home run at twenty times the speed...

"That's generally true, but I'm the strongest magical girl, how could I possibly fall down so easily!"

Sirius stood proudly with his hands on his hips again.

Looking at her like this, I suddenly remembered what Spica had said before.

"Miss Sirius, are you the embodiment of the Star Crystal?"

She paused for a moment, then asked, "Did Virgo tell you that?"

"Ah."

"That guy actually spread such secrets around... That's right, I'm not human at all, but a magical girl directly transformed from the Star Crystal. When I arrived on Earth, this world was suffering from those extraterrestrial invaders and had no time to find suitable candidates, so I directly signed a contract with myself. But as a price, I can no longer turn back into the Star Crystal. Just treat me as a human."

Sirius shrugged helplessly, but Seruno in front of her suddenly stood up. Although she wasn't tall, she was close enough to startle Sirius.

"Hmm, Seruno-chan?"

Seruno held her hand, leaving her bewildered.

"Miss Sirius is a hero of humanity! She is also a role model for magical girls. I will take you as my example and become a guardian of the Earth!"

"Uh, it's not that exaggerated. I'm just fulfilling my mission."

Although he spoke modestly, Sirius's lips couldn't help but curl up involuntarily when he was flattered by Serino and the others.

I sat up, using the bed frame for support, and the blanket covering me slipped down my back.

"Huh? Wow!"

Seruno covered her eyes.

Her upper body was covered in bandages, and the panties she wore weren't even her own.

Sigh, it's one thing to be in a coma for a long time, but what's the point of having your battle armor stripped off every time?

Seeing my confusion, Sirius explained, "I had the maid take your battle armor to wash, and the underwear you're wearing is mine. I'm really impressed with you guys; you came to vacation without bringing anything. There aren't any shops on my island."

"...?"

These are the panties worn by the world's number one idol...

"Don't worry, that one is brand new."

"Then don't use that kind of ambiguous language."

Sirius covered his mouth and let out a loud laugh, then said, "If your back injury doesn't bother you, get up and have lunch. Melissa and the others have prepared a Hawaiian-style feast. We've been waiting for you to wake up."

"Thanks……"

I was still a bit exhausted when I got up. The strain on my body from 20x speed was beyond my imagination. This can no longer be called a trump card; it should be called a do-or-die situation.

Although she is also a member of the association, Sirius is straightforward and doesn't mince words, making her easier to get along with than people like Yin Wei and Spica who are quite shrewd.

After changing into the down jacket pajamas, I leaned against the wall and walked out of the room, only then turning back to take in the full view of the guest room.

The luxurious decor includes a private bathroom, two large double beds, and a spacious balcony overlooking the beaches of Nabuan Island.

Is this mansion actually a hotel?

Sirius replied, "Before I bought this island, it was a five-star hotel, so it's normal that you think the room layout is like a hotel."

The structure of this mansion is very similar to that of a hotel; that's why.

"So this guest room is for me and Serino?"

It's troublesome to share a room with Serino, since "Bai Ziye" should be making her appearance in a few hours.

Ms. Yin Wei responded to this.

"No, Seruno requested that she not sleep in the same guest room as you."

Did she actively ask not to sleep with me?

Oh, she's still thinking about what happened on the plane... but that's alright.

Yin Wei continued, "She will be sharing a room with Mr. Ye, who will arrive later, so Miss Miluno, please do me the honor of sleeping with me for the next few days."

"……ha!?"

(Sun Yao)

Miss Milno is seriously injured; the old wounds from the battle with Samehime have flared up several times... She can't fight anymore.

We can't let her take that risk again until she's fully recovered.

"Serno".

"Ah? Yes!"

At the table, Miluno next to me raised her glass to me. She wasn't in good spirits, but she still came out to have lunch with everyone.

"But I don't drink..."

"You can just drink a beverage; toasting is just an outdated formality."

I stood up and clinked glasses with her.

"Then I must thank Miss Miluno."

"Alright, there's nothing to thank me for."

She just shook her head and asked again, "But what about your friend... when is he coming?"

That's right!

Where is Ye Zi now?

Chapter Seven: Bai Ziye is "Here"!

(Sun Yao)

"Ugh—uh—ha!"

"Serno-chan, don't make weird noises while eating your shaved ice."

Miss Sirius reminded me of this.

The shaved ice at the entrance, mixed with cold air, hits you straight in the head, making you squint and even causing a pain in your cerebellum.

On a pleasant tropical island, after a hearty lunch, enjoy a soft and smooth shaved ice – its sweetness is irresistible.

My mood is absolutely perfect!

"Hehe~ Hawaii, this is definitely the place to eat."

Miss Yin Wei swirled the ice ball in her glass, making a crisp clinking sound as it struck the glass. She began to speak as if she wanted to discuss something.

"You can also get shaved ice in Changkong City. This simple combination of fruit, syrup, red beans and ice will not taste much different no matter how it is changed, so your current excitement comes more from Hawaii than from the shaved ice."

Even in Changkong City, I would feel great eating shaved ice in temperatures of over 40 degrees Celsius, but I certainly wouldn't be able to stop eating it like this.

“I think the same thing can be done differently in different situations because the mood is completely different... and Hawaii isn’t that hot.”

Because of my words, Miss Miluno thoughtfully raised her chin.

"The same applies to people with different identities."

She seemed to mutter something, but I couldn't hear her because of the music playing in the restaurant.

"Alright, Seruno, take your time eating. I'll take Miss Miluno upstairs to rest first. When I come down, we'll go to the dock to pick up your boyfriend."

"Wait, he's not my boyfriend!"

Yin Wei feigned surprise.

"Isn't that right? Yang Yan said you are..."

"She made a mistake, or she made a mistake on purpose. Don't believe her!"

However, I did receive a roaming text message from Yezi just now, saying that I have arrived at Honolulu International Airport and it should be time to board the yacht.

Although I wanted to invite Miss Miluno to come and pick up Yezi, she was injured and probably needs to rest for the next couple of days, so it's not advisable to disturb her.

Miluno left the restaurant with Miss Yin Wei's help.

Sirius looked in the direction they left, a strange look in his eyes.

"Serno-chan, your boyfriend..."

Why is even Miss Sirius saying this?

"He's just a male friend, a good brother!" I quickly corrected him.

Has your male friend been acting strangely lately?

"Ok?"

I didn't quite understand what Sirius meant, or rather, I wasn't sure of her motivation for asking that question.

"Nothing's wrong, we'll continue as before."
