Living with a magical girl, but a weirdo cadre

　"Captain."

　At his voice, most people looked towards the door at the same time and greeted him, "Hello, Captain!"

　"Good afternoon, Commander-in-Chief!"

　The captain simply nodded in response to these people, and then went straight to the monitor.

　She gazed at "Kenbutsu No. 76" who was playing happily with its other companions, and after a long silence, she slowly nodded.

　"Alright, let's move on to the next stage of the experiment... Create a file for it, and then send me a copy of the manuscript."

　As he said this, the captain rubbed the hair hanging down near his neck... He could inform the cabinet minister and then swindle money.

　Hahaha, what "rebellious king"? It's all bullshit.

　If there's funding, that's fine. But if there isn't, who's willing to protect the interests of the cabinet...? They might as well hang out with weirdos.

　Unfortunately, Mayor-san doesn't think that way... Mayor-san wants the magical girl economy to recover and there to be enough jobs.

　The cabinet minister, on the other hand, wanted to get rid of the Monster King's rule as soon as possible.

　They're all idiots, especially the mayor, who's a complete moron.

　It's a real shame that the Purifiers' base and funding also depend on the mayor's appropriations...

　However, it's soon.

　Once this highly anticipated experiment moves to the next stage, we can finally leave the mayor aside and go it alone.

　After that, I hung out with the cabinet ministers. They were all a bunch of idiots anyway, so it was much easier to scam funding than from Mayor Sang.

　We must do great things! Let's go!

　The excited captain couldn't help but smile, and everyone around her assumed she was happy about the progress of the "Rebel King's" "liberation of Japan".

　This is the captain of the Purifier Squad, who has humanity in his heart!

　He was handpicked by the mayor of the central city from countless candidates, the most suitable person to command a group of bloodless, heartless killing machines...

　A loyal person with a heart for neon!

　Right now, she's excited about making a lot of money in the future.

　"..."

　"Hiss...whoosh..."

　"..." Ah, it's gone.

　Takemikazuchi looked at the "Kenbutsu 881" that had disappeared in front of him again, and then turned to look at the "Toyobutsu" series that had long since disappeared from the empty space next to him.

　Slightly curious, Takemikazuchi couldn't help but look around... There was still one last "Kenbutsu 888" playing with a ball nearby.

　It seems no new versions of myself have been added.

　Thinking this, Kenjiro approached the food bowl with some emotion, picked up a cube from in front of him, and put it in his mouth to chew.

　It was all so lively and fun at first, but now it's suddenly so quiet and I'm not used to it... but it's alright though.

　The most important thing for Kenmikazuchi is to have a calm and relaxed mind.

　The best way to slack off is to do whatever you want.

　With that thought in mind, Kenjiro lay lazily on the ground, scratching his little belly with his front paws, and then crunching his food.

　To be honest, it tastes really good.

　It feels a bit like some kind of rare and precious food specially prepared for Thunder Beasts... Even if it isn't, it's definitely carefully designed dog food.

　That's what Takemikazuchi thought.

　Then, he glanced at it briefly and saw that the physical body seemed to be dissipating and had begun to become somewhat ethereal (Kenbutsu 888).

　Takemikazuchi pondered for a moment, then his two tails gently extended and wrapped around Kenbutsu 888's hand.

　And then, in that very instant...

　"..."

　"It's solidified?"

　Looking at the monitor screen, the doctor in the white coat couldn't help but exclaim, his eyes wide: "Jianbudu No. 888, its existence continued by Jianbudu No. 76...?!"

　Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but gather around.

　"Spell..."

　"Has the control of the illusory image spell been taken over?"

　"Are you kidding me?!"

　That doesn't seem to be something a clone could do...

　What kind of extraordinary encounter did he have, and what kind of events did he encounter...? He mastered the means of continuing the technique at Jianbudu No. 76.

　Is that really No. 76 Jianbudu?

　Everyone couldn't help but have this suspicion.

　……

　"grumble?"

　Seeing the last "self" looking quite surprised, Takemikazuchi, who had retracted his tail, was still scratching his belly.

　He casually continued the existence of others, not caring what he had done. It was as if he had only done something insignificant.

　But without a doubt, the so-called "free food and drinks" is only fun when everyone is eating and drinking together.

　What's going on when a friend you're eating with suddenly becomes a stranger?

　Takemikazuchi was not unaware of this, and he himself expressed...

　Being too special might arouse suspicion from others... but does it matter if they suspect us?

　It does not matter.

　There was nothing to it from the beginning.

　Because this is the King of Monsters.

　Kenjiro himself didn't care about being a king; he became king to help Congyu and his other friends... He became king on Chiyou's side before Congyu.

　Cong Yu is like this; she likes to hide things and pretends to be weak while actually being strong.

　The heart is very...

　In addition, Takemikazuchi had heard that becoming the Monster King would grant him a cool transformation, which is why he became the king.

　He became a king who did not reign in any particular country.

　Takemikazuchi is free.

　They are born free, they can wander aimlessly, do nothing and not be criticized, and they don't need to carry anything.

　No need to lead the country.

　No need for a lover.

　No need to worry... What is there to worry about? You don't need to worry about anything, just act according to your own heart.

　And now...

　Takemikazuchi shifted his body slightly to the side, making room for him to eat.

　Then, he turned his head and gestured to "Kenbutsu 888" with his tail.

　Let's eat together!

　Chapter 491 The King's Theory: The Snow Woman

　[Takemikazuchi: Oh no, they're starting to lecture me.]

　[Takemikazuchi: Takemikazuchi crying.JPG]

　[Tamamo: Hahaha hh]

　[Takemikazuchi: What are you laughing at? I'll give you a taste of Takemikazuchi's divine hammer!]

　[Tamamo: ?]

　[Tamamo: Takemikazuchi's Fury.GIF]

　[Cong Yu: Have you watched Magical Girl Alliance 2 recently?]

　[Takemiya: Yeah, I watched it at the Magical Girl Association. It's pretty good, everyone should check it out.]

　[Shuten-dōji: I'm a weirdo, is it appropriate for me to watch magical girl movies?]

　[Takemikazuchi: My assessment is, watch it if you want!]

　[Takemiya: The villain in Magical Girl Alliance 2 was a robot... he seemed kind of cool.]

　[Cong Yu: Why are you bringing up movies?]

　[Takemikazuchi: Oh right, a lot of people have started playing with me while teaching me the technique of "blowing a hair and creating millions of others."]

　Takemikazuchi! Are you still Sun Wukong?!

　However, that should be the "illusory image technique," but is it really a technique that can be learned? Is it a technique similar to the red array and crystal?

　Instead of family-based techniques or traditional techniques?

　[Tamamo: Can you even learn this?]

　[Takemikazuchi: Shut up. Once I learn how, I'll pluck your tail feathers and make four little Tamamo-no-Mae, one for each of you.]

　[Tamamo: Meow?]

　[Cong Yu: Hahaha, I don't want to.]

　[Tamamo: Meow?!]

　[Shuten: Joy.]

　"..." Looking at the messages in the group chat, Yuki-onna couldn't help but smile. She then pressed the "H" key three times on her phone and sent a message—

　[Snow Woman: Hahaha.]

　Then, Yuki-onna looked at the pile of documents on her desk with some distress... These all required manual signatures.

　But even the Snow Woman couldn't do anything about it.

　Because she is the Queen of the Northern Capital.

　She had to do everything her subordinates couldn't be sure of or decide... and in the environment of Beidu, many small things couldn't be called small things.

　For example, whether or not the greenhouse should be expanded.

　Moreover, there are many more proposals that few dare to make decisions about, and even the second-in-command can only submit documents to her for review.

　Housing and heating needs and allocation...

　There are also things like underfloor heating and energy...

　The road to cultivating successors is long and arduous... It may take a very long time before we can confidently become hands-off managers.

　Sometimes, Yuki-onna really envies Murasame and Takemikazuchi.

　Unfortunately, she was destined not to hand over the Northern Capital to someone else. Even if she recalled magical girls to enforce the law and solve cases as detectives, it would be the same.

　So, no matter how helpless she felt, she still had to work hard.

　We must take responsibility for the entire capital city.

　The Snow Woman sighed and continued working on her documents. But she couldn't help but prop her chin up and look at the persistent snowfall in the Northern Capital.

　The snow was empty and white, devoid of color.

　Hokuto, which appears to be quite pure, is a country of eccentrics... Of course, there are also humans living in Hokuto, who are also her subjects.

　Yes, for the sake of her subjects, she's almost become a corporate slave.

　The snow woman wasn't like this before...

　I vaguely remember it was an ordinary afternoon. The snow woman who lived on the snowy mountain was preparing to go down the mountain to check on the situation.

　Then he witnessed three retainers of the Uesugi clan being chased by a boy, and the three of them looked extremely terrified.
