Sakura Emma, ​​I'm going to control you fiercely!

"My contact person died, and I want to apply for a new one today."

"So that's why—there are just too many wrecks in Bunkyo Ward! If it weren't for a kind person helping me this afternoon… Anyway, I want companions!"

……

Such sweet, melodious voices softened the solemnity of the hall.

Emma's gaze, however, fell on two young girls sitting in chairs in the corner of the hall.

The two girls were dressed in Japanese Shinto priest costumes with a white and red intertwined pattern.

Shirley, oblivious to Emma's gaze, spoke up.

"I'll take you to the interrogation room, where someone will take your information. After a quick registration, you can go home—"

"The girl over there."

At that moment, a crisp voice broke through Shirley's words.

With the steady sound of high heels, the two priests who had been waiting on the chairs came to Sherry and Emma.

They glanced at Shirley first, then their gaze fell on Emma.

"Are you the unregistered magical girl who disrupted the order of the Banqiao District mission today?" The girl in black pulled out her identification. "We are from the Court of Judgment. We hope you will come with us."

The other person's words were sharp and aggressive from the start, immediately attracting the attention of the other girls in the hall.

Before Emma could speak, Shirley quickly stepped in front of her.

"Excuse me, I should be in charge of this newcomer."

"A newcomer?" The white-clad girl among the two priestesses glanced at Emma from head to toe.

"It is not yet certain whether he is a newcomer or a newly recruited terrorist; we need to bring him back to the courtroom for a decision."

"How are you going to make a decision?" Emma tilted her head, her expression calm.

The girl in white frowned slightly upon seeing her indifferent expression.

Although she sensed something was amiss, she continued speaking.

"First, your Heart's Essence will be confiscated, and then you will be imprisoned in the Demon Suppression Prison for a week of reflection and observation. After you come out, you will take the Magical Girl Quality Test, and we will decide whether to return your Heart's Essence based on your test results."

Suppressing demons?

Emma immediately knew that this meant she would be living like an ordinary person while in prison.

This is equivalent to a 7-day account suspension.

This game is really daring...

As a player, he can accept challenging bosses, tedious tasks, and even imprisonment.

But it can't be a simple jail sentence like having your account banned.

While in Baldur's Gate, your equipment is confiscated when you're imprisoned, but you can still use magic. However, Judgment treats players like prisoners entirely.

She glanced at the top of the two magical girls' heads.

[Silver Fairy Lv28 (Red Name)] [Silver Fairy Lv29 (Red Name)]

Both are red names, no wonder.

What Emma found strange was that all the fairies with the word "fairy" in their names, such as Noah's golden fairy and the silver fairy in front of her, were red names.

"Ha ha……"

Sherry listened to these words as if she were hearing a joke.

“Not only do we have to confiscate the Heart Fruit, which is as precious as life itself, but we also have to imprison the magical girl who managed to annihilate so many remains in such a short time,” Sherry said pointedly. “Isn’t that strange?”

The girl in black came out.

"Please don't think of yourself as a hero. Being a magical girl is, in the end, just a job."

Sherry smiled sarcastically, "As expected of the Inquisition, which has never participated in frontline combat. What arrogant words."

The two girls, one in black and one in white, said no more and took a step toward Emma.

They each reached into their wide sleeves and pulled out a slightly glowing rattle.

Shirley was still smiling, but her face darkened.

That concludes the conversation between the two parties.

Sherry silently took out the Heart Gem from her bosom.

Emma also hugged the doll slightly tighter, clutching the gem pendant.

The group of girls watching glanced at Emma's group, then looked at the priest's group...

One of the girls, dressed in blue, gripped the gem tightly, her gaze fixed intently on Emma.

Her gaze gradually hardened. Then she whispered a conversation with her friend beside her, subtly pointing at Emma.

"It must be her..."

Just as tensions were about to rise between the two sides—

"Please wait a moment!"

Three voices rang out in unison.

Swish!Swish!Swish!

Three dazzling beams of light exploded in the hall!

As the light faded, three fully armed magical girls stood before Emma like a wall of sighs.

The blue-haired girl at the head of the group held a long spear, the tip of which was pointed directly at the priests of the Inquisition, her eyes seemingly burning with fire.

"That super cute pink-clad girl is one of ours!"

Volume 1: Chapter 26 Surrounded by Stars

"That super cute pink-clad girl is one of ours!"

As the atmosphere reached its lowest point, Emma noticed three very familiar girls stepping out and standing in front of her and Sherry.

Emma looked at the three girls' faces and immediately recognized them as the people that the God had saved in the Remains Domain!

Emma instantly understood what had happened:

The seeds of cause that the gods saved actually took root and sprouted the moment they arrived at the Demon Bureau!

Emma was deeply moved...

The two priests frowned as they looked at the three magical girls blocking the pink-clad girl's path.

"Do you... intend to obstruct the court's enforcement of the law?"

The black-clad girl's bell swayed slightly, making the three girls who came to her rescue somewhat frightened.

But the girl in blue, who was leading the group, still stepped forward.

"Hmph... I didn't think that far ahead. I only know that the little pink-clad girl saved him. And..."

She raised her wand and pointed it at the priest's nose.

"We really didn't like what you just said!"

"Exactly!" the girl in red chimed in. "We become magical girls not just for jobs and social privileges, we want to be heroes, okay!"

"Protecting the city, vanquishing the wreckage, tracking down the witch... everything we do is at the cost of our lives to protect the people."

"but--"

The girl in blue abruptly changed the subject, pointing to Emma behind her.

"We have saved countless people and given them hope, but no one has ever come to save us."

“Every few days, a familiar will be born; if you’re unlucky, you might even encounter remains or a witch… You live in fear every day!”

"But that little girl... reminded me of what magical girls looked like in the anime I used to admire!"

The girl in green, speaking in a sweet, delicate voice, also tried her best to speak:

"We...we are so grateful to her! She gave us magical girls hope in the most dangerous time! So...that's why..."

The three of them said in unison:

"We became magical girls because of hope!"

Their voices echoed throughout the hall, reaching the ears of the two priests and the other girls in the hall.

They lowered their heads, gazing at the heart gems they each held, pondered briefly, and hesitated for a moment...

Da da da……

Emma suddenly noticed that more footsteps were coming in succession.

Suddenly, five more girls transformed and joined the three guards in front.

The group of eight stood protectively in front of Emma, ​​their eyes filled with fear yet unwavering resolve.

"Although we're all newcomers, there are many of us! We're not afraid of your court!!!"

Although the legs of a blue-haired girl were trembling and her voice was shaking like a leaf in the wind, her eyes were unusually firm.

The other girls nodded in agreement.

Sherry couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Wow... I never thought it could be like this."

She nudged Emma, ​​who was standing beside her.

"Emma, ​​you seem to have built up quite a bit of popularity!"

Emma remained silent about her physical body, but her consciousness was stirred by waves of emotion.

I never imagined... that I would receive so much protection from so many people.

All of this is naturally thanks to the gods' city-wide "monster-grabbing" frenzy.

Indeed, the "monster-stealing" incident attracted these strange courts, but it also created threads of entanglement...

Emma never imagined that this scene would happen to her.

'thank you……'

A warm feeling emanating from within compelled Emma to express her gratitude.

Yang Wen, watching this unexpected dramatic turn of events on the screen, silently pulled out a tissue.

This game really understands human nature...

Who would understand! Protected by a group of beautiful girls!

At the same time, a pop-up window has been appearing on the screen since just now:

[Due to your active participation, the "Tokyo New Magical Girl Support Association" faction reputation has reached "Friendly".]

Yang Wen guessed that it was probably after the faction reputation reached "friendly" that the NPCs' hidden mechanism was triggered: saving the day.

"Friendly support"—Yang Wen felt that this was a more fitting description.

--"you!"

On the priest's side, the white-clad girl, unable to contain her anger any longer, was about to raise the bell in her hand when the black-clad girl lifted her arm to stop her.

The girl in black gazed at the group of magical girls protecting the pink-haired girl like her own offspring, and pondered for a moment...

"Let's go."

After saying that, he walked towards the main gate of the Demon Bureau without looking back.

Seeing this, the white-haired girl had no choice but to follow.

The magical girls dared not relax, silently watching the two figures pass by Emma.

The girl in black spoke softly as she passed Emma.

"We will meet again, Emma Sakura."

Rumble...
