Give children a little self-destruction shock to their worldview.

—I need to find a chance to get rid of him.

Now that the magical girl Sky Blue has arrived, she calms down a bit and sees that the strange people around her don't actually approve of her killing.

There are just too many people here, and too much resistance. Let's lead them to a less crowded place first, and then make further plans.

Yuga Mayumi's killing intent had not dissipated, and the unconscious half-human girl seemed to sense this killing intent, her body trembled involuntarily, and her ears drooped down.

.................................................. .................................................. .

Under the healing magic of Terasaki Ayasa, the half-human girl quickly awoke.

Because of the language barrier, the half-humans learned some everyday phrases, but they couldn't speak anything too complicated, so they could only communicate through telepathy.

Based on the half-human girl's fragmented words, the group quickly pieced together the reason for her arrival.

The half-human girl—codenamed 3904, is a wolf-like half-human who was modified to hunt non-human creatures called "Kaba."

Because the world had fallen into chaos for some unknown reason, she was blindly following her superiors' orders to hunt Kaba. When she came to her senses, she found herself alone in a predicament and was transported to this world when she was on the verge of death.

Having exhausted all her stored magic power to restore her battered body, she had no choice but to hunt the [Kaba] of this world to replenish her magic.

That's why she attacked the monster.

The instructions implanted in her brain forbade her from harming people, so strictly speaking, she posed no threat to ordinary people; she simply mistook the strange man for an evil creature.

Hearing this, Mayumi Haga, who was leaning against the side with her arms crossed, looked down at the collar around the other person's neck.

After hearing 3904's tragic life story, the Guardian's murderous intent remained completely unmoved:

If weapons fall into this world, the harm they cause will indeed be too great.

Main Text: Chapter 174 Rania in the Dream

3904 shuddered.

A chilling gaze, almost piercing through her, came from behind her. The naked killing intent in that gaze was undisguised. 3904, who had just recovered under the effect of healing magic, recalled the pain of being on the verge of death and the condescending, icy golden vertical pupils, and her body stiffened once again.

Terasaki Ayasa noticed that the injured person's emotions were off, so she turned to look at the Guardian standing behind her. The white-haired Guardian casually looked away, as if she was listening indifferently.

Terazaki Aisa:......

She could tell that the two of them didn't get along.

It wasn't so much that they didn't get along, but rather that the Guardian had displayed unprecedented hostility. If she had looked away for even a second longer, the little wolf on the hospital bed might have been pierced by a cold arrow.

But 3904's information was very important, and Terasaki Ayasa didn't want the child to die. It would be too pitiful for him to be turned into a weapon... She thought about saving 3904's life, at least by safely sending him back to his original world.

However, Mayumi Haga had some reservations about this, thinking to herself: Rather than sending this guy back to his death, I'd rather give him a quick death.

Her ears twitched in frustration. Realizing that 3904 was temporarily being monitored by a benevolent child-oriented magic user, she could only postpone the task of eliminating the potential threat.

Let her life be spared for now.

Mayumi Haga thought, "I'll eliminate this guy when he reveals his true colors."

Realizing there was no chance to strike, the Guardian turned and left after hearing the basic information provided by 3904.

Terasaki Ayasa felt the unpleasant chill in the room vanish, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Phew, I thought that lady wasn't going to give me face and was going to make a move here... It seems she's quite reasonable after all."

She's always been reasonable, but the Guardian's aura this time was truly astonishing, making one feel that she would indeed not hesitate to grind 3904 to dust.

Terasaki Ayasa was also terrified.

But the Guardian is ultimately a rational and good person; no matter how unhappy she is, she will endure it.

After the other person left, Terasaki Ayasa instructed the injured man sitting on the bed, "You'd better not get too close to that person...?"

3904 didn't quite hear what Terasaki Ayasa was saying; rather, her attention was completely diverted.

The little wolf, who was just trembling under the guardian's aura, suddenly sat up and stared in the direction the guardian had left, his eyes shining and his tail wagging.

"So... strong." 3904, whose desire for strength was excessive, seemed to have completely forgotten the fear of almost being killed by the other party. His wet eyes were bright, and his whole body trembled with excitement.

That person is very strong.

She smelled a terrifying odor emanating from that person. So powerful! She knew she couldn't possibly beat him! So strong!

Trembling, 3904 stared intently as Mayumi Haga's clothes disappeared around the corner of the corridor. She tried to sniff the air; her scent was still there.

Whether in the original world or the current world, powerful beings have always been the objects of admiration for half-humans like her.

Although it was terrifying, that figure was etched into my heart.

.................................................. .................................................. .

After a long and eventful day—being attacked while shopping, cooking at a strange person's house, and even capturing a visitor from another world—Haga Mayumi finally returned home in the evening.

She took off the small cape from her back, shook it gently as if shaking off all the dust and fatigue, and then returned to her usual black hair.

When I got home, Sugiyama Rika looked like she was about to go out. She and Mograine had spent the whole day at home working on the video account, and she was planning to go on a date with Terasaki Ayasa that evening to discuss 3904.

Because of the convenient skill of telepathy, she actually knew almost everything about the situation at home, and similarly, Mayumi Haga had heard almost everything on the public channel.

Terasaki Ayasa's account is relatively objective, and she doesn't exaggerate the fact that Mayumi Haga, as a guardian, seems hostile. However, it is true that Mayumi Haga wanted to kill 3904, a fact that Sugiyama Rika also understood through telepathic communication.

However, as someone who had been in Mayumi Haga's mental space, she knew why Mayumi Haga was like this.

Mayumi Haga fears that 3904 represents the arrival of a new "calamity".

Because the world of 3904 doesn't sound very friendly and wonderful, and the changes happening in the world sound similar to the calamities that Mayumi Haga's original world encountered, both of which suddenly started a series of events that caused human living space to be squeezed... In short, Mayumi Haga is very vigilant about this, and has reached the point of being extremely anxious.

She believes that visitors from other worlds may carry foreign viruses.

After all, the spiritual veins of this world have been damaged, and many things cannot be properly screened. What if the one coming is not a friendly one?

Sugiyama Rika understands Mayumi Haga's concerns, but she also tells Mayumi Haga that there have been instances in the past where magical girls from other worlds came to this world seeking help.

“When I was a magical girl, something like this happened almost every year. People from outside aren’t necessarily bad people; maybe they just need the help of our world?” Sugiyama Rika said, pulling Haga Mayumi aside for a heart-to-heart talk on the sofa.

Mayumi Haga sat on the sofa with her head turned to the side, looking like she was still not in a good mood.

"Things can always be resolved, as long as the magical girl is here with you." Sugiyama Rika wasn't worried about Haga Mayumi's strength. To be honest, she felt that Haga Mayumi was still holding back a lot.

If it were based on the scale of the spiritual space, even Miracle City wouldn't be enough for Mayumi Haga to wreak havoc on.

However, Mayumi Haga is kind and will restrain her strength to avoid causing trouble for others—including mental trouble.

That's why they feel constrained.

Sugiyama Rika has great faith in Mayumi Haga's character. Perhaps there is no one more reliable than Mayumi Haga in this world. Therefore, she believes that the matter of 3904 can be easily resolved as long as the magic ability users and Mayumi Haga investigate together.

The premise is that Mayumi Haga doesn't always think about killing people and secretly putting them in her backpack.

Yuga Mayumi, who originally wanted to find an opportunity to chop 3904 into several pieces and put them into her backpack: ...Okay.

Ugh.

The optimism that the child conveys to the world is something she can never learn.

The optimism, positivity, and peaceful mindset of the people in this world are all a result of the powerful consciousness and strength of this world. No matter what they do, they can bring things to a head through the power of their hearts; justice will always prevail over evil; when faced with difficulties, they can overcome them by calling upon friendship; and as long as they believe in themselves, they can break through their limits.

But Mayumi Haga couldn't do that; all she could do was be extremely cautious.

So even though Sugiyama Rika said that, Haga Mayumi only hid her thoughts a little more, and then nodded helplessly: "Okay."

She promised she wouldn't kill 3904 so easily.

Having received Mayumi Haga's promise, Rika Sugiyama happily went out, and probably wouldn't be back tonight.

After listening to the whole thing, Megaran listened in silence for a long time and then said to Mayumi Haga, "You've changed too."

"What?" Mayumi Haga was taken aback.

Megran said, “Before, you wouldn’t even do the bare minimum, but now you’re putting away those hurtful thoughts for others… You’ve started to accommodate others.”

Mayumi Haga remained noncommittal: "Perhaps."

She didn't feel any change in herself, but as Megrana said, she wouldn't have made this level of concession before.

Perhaps it really has softened a bit.

"Hmm, getting more and more used to this world, isn't it?" If Megaran had shoulders, he would have said this while shrugging.

Yuga Mayumi ignored her, took a shower, ate something, and then went to rest.

Megran smiled at her retreating figure, then laboriously moved himself using his hair: "Hey! Wait a minute... Leave me a croquette on the table! Speaking of which, Mayumi, could you bring that guy back for me to eat? I've never had wolf meat from another world before..."

Mayumi Haga completely ignored her. This girl still wants to eat live animals after coming to this world? Dream on.

.................................................. .................................................. .

As the water nymph sang, Mayumi Haga fell asleep.

Before going to sleep, she was still thinking about 3904.

3904 was able to absorb the monster's core magic, but it seemed to stop after reaching a certain limit. The other monsters, including Little Bear, were all lively and energetic after escaping, which was reassuring, although their magic needed time to recover.

Oh, this refers to the strange person other than the bear. Because the bear ate her sadness by hugging her foot again, she recovered almost instantly, but it wasn't too obvious because the magical girl was there.

Now, most of the weirdos have gone home.

Before going to bed, Little Bear sent a photo of the completely clean bowls and plates to Mayumi Haga on his phone, along with a thank you message, saying that it was really delicious. The food calmed everyone down after they were frightened, and the house of the weirdos was very lively tonight.

Seeing the photo, Mayumi Haga finally felt relieved.

However, the problem with 3904 also needs to be resolved quickly.

Half-humans need to draw magic from the flesh and blood of the Kaba to sustain their lives, which makes them relatively bloodthirsty. Furthermore, being created as weapons, they are not very stable.

Currently, Terasaki Ayasa is using magic supplements to keep 3904 alive. While this solves the most basic survival problem, the lack of a certain trace element unique to Kabat means that he may die from organ failure in the long run, so this cannot continue indefinitely.

Therefore, we must get 3904 back to its own world as soon as possible.

Mayumi Haga overheard this and thought it was a good idea.

If they could be sent back quickly and not linger in front of me, before my patience wore thin, I wouldn't bother that little wolf.

However, the global anomaly mentioned by 3904 does indeed need to be investigated...

Although the calamity of their own world has been defeated, who can say for sure that there are no other similar existences among so many worlds?

"Why worry so much?" A familiar voice suddenly appeared in the dream, drawing Mayumi Haga's attention back.

She found herself sitting on the grass, with soft, wide grass beneath her, and in front of her was her friend with white hair and red eyes.

...It's Lania.

Mayumi Haga was somewhat surprised. She had never seen Lania in her dreams before. What was going on this time?

wrong.

Compared to the usual dreams that are always accompanied by nightmares, this overly peaceful area must be a lucid dream, a space created by Lania's sorcery that allows the two of them to talk.

“Correct!” The white-haired, red-eyed wizard also sat down, stretching out his bare, slender ankles and calves, tied with red ropes and bells, and leaned happily against Yuga Mayumi, who was still confused about the situation. “Your mind has become sharper.”

Mayumi Haga was filled with confusion.

“Before, because of your spiritual protection, I had no way to enter your spiritual space,” Lania explained.

Even with Mayumi Haga's spiritual protection, she couldn't intrude recklessly. The time before last, if it weren't for the Dream-Eating Clown's magic, she wouldn't have been able to contact Mayumi Haga through the dream channel.

The Dream-Eating Clown's dream magic actually exploited a loophole in Mayumi Haga's mental protection. The strange man's dream magic didn't actually invade dreams; instead, it extracted and projected the dream, then eroded the projected dream.

Moreover, for Mayumi Haga, it really wasn't an invasion; it was more like a demonstration. It couldn't break down her psychological defenses, it was insignificant, and it wouldn't trigger any mental protection.

Last time, with the core of Mayumi Haga's guardian shattered and she transformed into a dragon, her spiritual protection completely failed. After entering her spiritual space, Lania left a backup plan so that the two could meet in the spiritual space.

"I see." Mayumi Haga couldn't help but admire Rania's level of witchcraft. "You are a very powerful witch."

"What? Your compliments are so dry. I prefer your softer voice." Lania laughed and leaned against her, but made no further move as expected.

Since Rania's death, the two of them have rarely spent time together like this, lying on the grass chatting.

Lania is a ghost who follows Mayumi Haga. She gave almost everything to the girl she loved, and the girl did not disappoint her.

Is that enough...?

Lania is not someone who is easily satisfied, as can be seen from the duration of her attacks on Mayumi Haga in the mental space.

She rested her head on Mayumi Haga's lap, tilted her head back, and asked, "Hey, Mayumi, do you want to go back?"

"……go back?"

“If we rebuild our home, we can go back, right?” She reached out and pinched Mayumi Haga’s cheek.

Chapter 175: Everything is in Your Hands

Rebuilding their home was certainly appealing enough for Mayumi Haga, but it was something she had never even considered.
