At this moment, shatter the dimensional barrier

Especially that super evil spirit that filled the entire living room.

“But, Dad, he shouldn’t be an evil spirit, right?” Yotsuya Miko thought of her father, who had passed away a year after she was able to see evil spirits. Her father was still the same as in the photos, and had not become terrifying.

"Thump~" Yotsuya Miko returned to her front door, swallowed hard, and thought, "Kyosuke should be home from school by now." She took out her key and carefully opened the door.

She was ready to 'transform magically' when she saw the super evil spirit, and then unleash 'Magic Flash' at full power.

"Ah—I died so tragically!" A horrifying voice came the moment the door opened, and Yotsuya Miko turned pale with fright, but the next moment she saw her younger brother playing a horror movie.

My younger brother, Kyosuke, loves watching horror movies and hogs the TV every day.

"You're back, sister! You didn't even say 'I'm back' today. You almost scared the soul out of me." Yotsuya Kyosuke looked over, patted his chest, and was clearly frightened.

"..." I was startled when Yotsuya Miko's lips twitched.

But the next moment the scene before her eyes changed, the entire living room became filled with smoke and chaos, and a huge head that could swallow two of her in one bite appeared in front of her.

The owner of the head occupied two-thirds of the living room, curled up and completely enclosing it, exuding a terrifying and ominous aura.

"Oh, you're back, Miko." The figure who was reading a newspaper on the sofa next to his younger brother rubbed his eyes and looked at Yotsuya Miko. His figure was semi-transparent and emitted a soft, pale blue light.

"School ended ten minutes later than usual today, so don't tire yourself out and remember to rest."

"What's wrong? Why did you suddenly freeze?" Kyosuke Yotsuya said, looking at his dazed older sister with displeasure.

"Roar..." The huge head growled in front of Jianzi, and huge red eyes, three times the size of her head, stared at her. Sticky saliva dripped from its ferocious mouth and fell to her feet.

"Heave-ho..." Yotsuya Miko took a deep breath, her heart pounding wildly. She looked at her younger brother and said, "Kyosuke, don't scream no matter what happens." As she spoke, she stretched out her hand, and her God Eye shone with pink light.

"Huh?" Yotsuya Kyosuke was dumbfounded, and then he heard his sister's chuunibyou voice.

My pure and beautiful heart.

[Unlocked!!!]

Chapter 257 God's Fun, the Magical Girl Protagonist Group Begins!

hum~

A soft pink light burst forth instantly, and Yotsuya Miko transformed in a flash. Her God Eye emitted waves that spread outwards, allowing ordinary people who couldn't see evil spirits to see the enemies they were fighting when the magical girl was in battle.

This is just a bit of Los Santos's wicked sense of humor. How can a magical girl's battle be without an audience? Besides, it's also a process of gradually getting ordinary people used to 'supernatural power,' like boiling a frog in lukewarm water.

The concentration of elemental energy throughout the world will gradually increase over the course of a year, at which time elemental creatures will be born one after another.

This world is generally peaceful, and we cannot simply and crudely allow supernatural powers to cover everything, otherwise it will cause the collapse of social order.

The goal is to allow ordinary people to gradually adapt, and in this process, good people will gain power, bad people will reveal their true colors, and the order of the world will gradually change.

"Huh?" Yotsuya Kyosuke stared in disbelief at his older sister, who suddenly radiated light and then changed into a gorgeous magical girl cosplay outfit.

But before he could ask anything, his expression froze completely. An ominous black mist appeared around him, and an unprecedentedly terrifying feeling made his body tremble uncontrollably. He mechanically turned his head, his eyes meeting the direction of the terrifying feeling.

A gigantic, terrifying monster that occupied two-thirds of the living room was bowing its head, its grotesque maw, crimson eyes, and scarlet tongue hanging from its gaping maw to the floor, leaving long trails of black saliva on the floor.

Moreover, his father, who had died a year ago, was sitting on the sofa next to him, holding a newspaper from a year ago.

An instinctive fear rushed to my head.

"Aaaaaaahhhhhhh—" Kyosuke Yotsuya couldn't help but scream, tumbling and scrambling off the sofa, trying to escape but his limbs wouldn't obey him.

He likes watching horror movies, but because he knows they are fake and staged, he is not afraid of them; on the contrary, he finds them exciting.

But when he learned that those evil spirits and monsters had actually appeared, his instinctive fear nearly made him faint.

"Huh?" Yotsuya's father looked at his screaming son and his daughter who had suddenly turned into a magical girl in surprise.

But before he could react, the pink light once again filled his field of vision.

Unlock my heart! Magic flash!!!

Miko Yotsuya poured all the 'magic power' in her body into the magic wand, and the pink light illuminated the entire room.

The elemental power contained within the body of a second-tier transcendent being is at least equivalent to ten tons of TNT. This amount is enough to easily destroy a six-story building, and even cause surrounding buildings to explode.

Therefore, the minimum requirement for a magical girl who has just obtained a 'magic gem' is to explode buildings—super explosion buildings. She can basically handle ordinary evil spirits with ease, but she is temporarily helpless against some special evil spirits, such as those with 'faith' or 'divinity'.

There are quite a few evil spirits like this in Japan. After all, the Shinto religion in this country believes that all things in the universe are gods, and evil spirits that live in shrines can easily gain 'faith' and become so-called 'ghosts and gods'.

These 'ghosts and gods' are at most fourth-order; there are no fifth-order beings in the entire world.

"Roar--"

Sensing the threat, the ferocious evil spirit reacted with a piercing roar, but its body was unable to move. Its body was constantly being squeezed, and eventually it was squeezed into a lump like dough.

It was trapped inside a pink heart-shaped bubble, then floated in the living room, its two scarlet eyes filled with both rage and grievance.

"Kimi, what... what's going on?" Yotsuya's father came to his senses and found himself trapped inside the pink heart-shaped bubble. He looked at his daughter, who was displaying magical powers, with disbelief.

"Hahoo..." Yotsuya Miko breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the Great Evil Spirit and her father trapped in the 'Magic Flash', but at the same time, a sense of guilt washed over her.

Although Dad has become an evil spirit, he is still Dad, and he is not as terrifying as other evil spirits; he still has the appearance of a human.

"Sister, sister! What, what is going on?!" Kyosuke Yotsuya kicked his legs and pointed fearfully at the monster that had been 'subdued' in the blink of an eye and his father's ghost.

His mind was still blank; he had no idea what had happened.

“That’s an evil spirit, Kyosuke. Ordinary people can’t see it under normal circumstances, but ordinary people who are exposed to the light of the ‘magic gem’ can see it briefly.” Miko Yotsuya gripped her magic wand tightly with both hands. This was only the second time she had used her power, but she had a lot of related knowledge in her mind.

"Magic gem? Sister, what are you?" Kyosuke Yotsuya, still in the early stages of his chuunibyou (middle school syndrome), exclaimed upon hearing the seemingly familiar words, his body trembling with fear.

“A magical girl,” Miko Yotsuya said, blushing as she tugged at her skirt.

"Huh? Magical girl?!" Kyosuke Yotsuya's eyes widened.

“We’ll talk about that later. We need to get rid of this horrible evil spirit first.” Yotsuya Miko took a deep breath, looked at the bound monster, then at her father, who also had an incredulous expression, and managed to move her lips with difficulty: “Dad…”

"Kimi, are you saying goodbye to your father now?" Yotsuya's father, regaining his senses, looked calmly at his daughter who had suddenly displayed miraculous powers, his voice becoming gentle.

"I just realized that I've been absent-minded around Zi lately because I can see her, right?"

"Yes, I can always see it." Yotsuya Miko pursed her lips as she heard the familiar voice, her eyes welling up with tears. She could finally say it directly.

"I'm sorry to have made you worry so much," said Yotsuya's father gently. "I was so worried about you. I was worried that your lives would be too bad after I left, and that you would become ghosts when you came to your senses."

"After becoming a ghost, I realized that there are many things in the world that can harm you, so I want to protect you forever."

"But seeing that my strong daughter has the strength to protect herself and her family, I am completely relieved."

“Come on, son, let’s send your father to Buddhahood. I’m worried that if I stay in the human world, I’ll become one of them sooner or later.” Father Yotsuya said magnanimously, glancing at the large evil spirit on the other side who looked aggrieved.

"It also protected this home. It's not an evil spirit. You know it too, son. It's been with our family for a long time."

"It? It's been with the family for a long time?" Yotsuya Miko looked at the big evil spirit that was whimpering and feeling aggrieved, then suddenly remembered something and looked at the family photo hanging on the wall. A small white dog was sticking out its tongue and wagging its tail at her feet.

"So that's how it is... So you've been protecting the family all along? I thought..."

“Dad, you will surely become a Buddha. Kind people will always be rewarded.” Tears streamed down Yotsuya Miko’s cheeks.

Although most evil spirits are bad, a small number of them are good. Most evil spirits will be sent to hell, while a small number of them will be reincarnated as Buddhas.

Dad will definitely be reincarnated.

"Wait! What's going on! And... Dad..." Kyosuke Yotsuya, having heard his sister and father's conversation, had lost most of his fear and quickly got up from the ground, shouting.

It's unimaginable that Dad has become a ghost and has been living in the house ever since.

His worldview has completely collapsed.

“Sometimes not knowing is a good thing, Kyosuke. Listen to your mother. As a man, you must protect your sister. It’s a promise between men.” Yotsuya’s father held up his little finger to his son.

"I know, but I still want to know what's going on. Is this the truth of the world?" Kyosuke Yotsuya's voice choked with emotion. It was so good to see his father again, but seeing the truth of the world filled him with excitement.

"Let Miko tell you. Even if Miko doesn't tell you, you still have to be obedient."

"Okay, that's all for now, goodbye."

Yotsuya Miko nodded, her voice choked with emotion, and slowly raised her magic wand.

[Farewell from the Evil Spirit]

hum~

The 'magic gem' on her chest emitted light, and two pentagram magic circles flew out, each pointing in front of her magic wand at her father and the 'puppy' who had accompanied her throughout her childhood.

She didn't want to see her father turn into an evil spirit, and that was also her father's request.

Goodbye, Dad.

……

At this point, a few streets away from the Yotsuya family home, the detached houses here were much taller and more attractive, resembling small villas.

The term "detached house" originated after World War II and was mostly used for ordinary people's housing. However, after the end of the bubble economy in the late 20th century, detached houses were luxury homes that only wealthy families could afford.

The room in the house facing the street was lit up. A girl with short brown hair, who had just finished eating, opened the drawer of her desk, counted her treasured candies, and then put them all into her schoolbag.

"I wonder if something's on Miko's mind? She's been listless these past few days. I'll bring her some candy tomorrow; she'll definitely cheer up after eating some candy."

Yuri Kawaka left a piece of candy, popped it into her mouth, and showed a happy expression.

"Mmm~ So delicious! The best candy should be saved for last. The sweet taste is the happiest."

Just then, a pinkish-blue light appeared in the backpack.

"Huh?" Yurikawa Hana blinked, looking at the light emanating from under the candy with a puzzled expression, and muttered to herself in a dazed manner, "The candy is glowing?"

I quickly pulled the candy apart and saw a pinkish-blue glass bead shining brightly, with a beautiful gold pattern forming its border.

"What's this? A fluorescent phone charm? It's so pretty! Have I ever bought a charm like this before?"

Yurikawa picked up the 'cell phone pendant' with a puzzled look on her face.

In an instant, a warm current appeared in his body, and 'information' kept appearing in his mind, causing him to freeze in shock.

After returning to God, his eyes shone brightly, and he held them in his hands.

"Wow—it's the 'Magic Gem' from the manga! The gem that transforms you into a magical girl!"

She didn't suspect anything was wrong; she just thought it was amazing to be able to become a magical girl, and she was naturally oblivious.

"Unlock, my true heart, magical girl transformation!" Yurikawa Hana happily raised the 'magic gem' and shouted.

A burst of light filled the room, and after the light faded, a gorgeous pink and blue magical girl outfit replaced her original clothes.
