Anyway, after that, Nahanna, who was under the spell of the Heavenly Demon, kept nodding to what I said… .

“Hannah I need your help. Are you Hannah… ,Would you like to help your sister?”

“… … Yes.”

… He even offered to help me.

I couldn’t help but be a little impressed when I saw Nahanna nodding her head with slightly widened eyes.

‘The effect of the Heavenly Demon Illusion is crazy… .’

If I were my usual self, I would never have done this… .

“… Then, let’s watch the music video together.”

“Okay.”

Now he snuggles up next to me and even asks to watch the music video with me.

There were many benefits I gained from this work.

first of all… ,Na Hanna, who had been uncooperative so far, joined me.

Jiing-.

Right now, everything we do is captured on an idle camera in the corner of the practice room.

‘The picture is good… .’

The girls couldn’t understand each other at first.

But after a fight, one girl confesses her trauma to the other girl.

The other girl suggests a solution, and eventually the two girls reconcile and work together toward the same goal.

In fact, this royal storytelling is mixed with hypnosis, but… ,The public has no way of knowing this… .

You can only admire this touching scene right now.

of course… ,There was still one big obstacle remaining.

‘In the end, if I don’t perform on stage, all of this is a waste of money.’

If you show a disappointing performance on stage after being awakened at best, the narrative so far will have no meaning.

For this to happen, we had to come up with a good arrangement idea here and now.

but… .

“Umm… .”

After finishing watching the music video, Na Hanna frowned and fell asleep.

As expected, even after watching the music video, I don’t think any other arrangement ideas came to mind.

“As always, I have trouble coming up with good ideas?”

“… … Umm.”

I thought so… .

“… … There is one thought that comes to mind.”

“… What?”’

“Actually, there is an idea that came to mind when we first selected … ,I didn’t say anything because it was such a high risk and high return… .”

“… … .”

The idea of arranging this noble thing came to me from the beginning, but I kept my mouth shut until now.

I looked at Nahanna, trembling with a sense of betrayal, and bowed her head in shock.

“… I’m sorry.”

“… No. It’s okay because I said it now. So… ,What is the idea?”

“… … .”

When I asked, Nahanna was silent for a moment, as if she was worried, and then opened her mouth with difficulty.

“Do you often watch anime?”

“Anime? Ah, cartoon? What… ,I don’t watch it often now, but I watched it a lot when I was young. You sang G-Demon’s song during the grading process. I’m a huge fan of G-Demon. ”

“… No, not classics like Gdemon.”

… Is Gdemon already being treated as a classic?

I shook my head, feeling bitter.

“No, then I’ve never seen it.”

“Hmm… ,That’s right. Actually, I like watching animation. Magical girls are a theme that often appears in animation. But anyway.”

Na Hanna searched for something on her tablet PC, showed it to me, and said.

“Magical girls aren’t actually all that hopeful and bright.”

“… What?”

I was shocked by Nahanna’s words.

Are you saying that magical girls aren’t just about hopeful and bright content?

Isn’t Magical Girl a children’s cartoon with a clear genre, although it is somewhat childish, in which a young girl hides her identity and fights against evil?

That’s what I thought, but in the tablet PC that Hannah showed me… .

“Hmm… .”

There was an image of a magical girl whose entire body was covered in wounds and whose eyes had lost focus.

“This is an example of extreme behavior. Look at the others.”

In addition, the things Nahanna showed me broke away from the existing magical girl image I had… .

Rather than a girlish pink background, the image of a magical girl was shown with a devastated black image and a dark expression.

Some even have eye patches… ,Some hold whips instead of canes… .

… Some even had cigarettes in their mouths.

As I looked through the somewhat sickening images, I asked Nahanna.

“… Are these all magical girls? Something makes me wonder? They seem different from the magical girls I’ve known so far.”

“It’s the so-called magical girl antithesis. Sister, think about it. Would it be as good if you lived a normal life and then became a magical girl?”

“… … .”

“My sister has to fight against monsters that are difficult to deal with every day, but at the same time, she has to hide the fact that she is a magical girl from those around her.”

“Hmm… .”

“Even if you risk your life and fight, there is no reward, and all that remains is a sense of duty. You get hurt often, you often see terrible scenes, and sometimes even close friends die. But those around you don’t even know that you’re having a hard time. So what do you think? Do you think?”

“… Definitely.”

… I don’t think it will be all that enjoyable.

no… ,It might be rather painful.

“If your heart is broken, you may become tainted by evil and become corrupted or darkened.”

“… … !”

I flinched at the word blackening.

It was because suddenly the characteristic blackness of Yu Seol came to mind.

“When the mind changes, there are cases where a magical girl joins an evil organization.”

While saying that, the additional image Nahanna showed was of a magical girl who looked like an executive of an evil organization.

After looking at a few more of those images, I slowly asked Nahanna.

“So Hannah, what you’re saying is… So, let’s delve into this dark side of magical girls, right?”

“… Yes, to be exact… .”

Nahanna took paper and pen from the table and started writing something.

“In this… .”

Ssuk seu-.

Na Hanna drew a pen and filled in the empty asterisk.

“… Change it to this.”

“… … .”

Then he looked at me carefully and spoke to me carefully.

“… … Originally, was a bright and hopeful song like a traditional magical girl. We gave it a twist and made it dark.”

“… … .”

“Of course, there will be many different likes and dislikes… .I think if you can do it well, the return will be big… ,How do you feel?”

“… … .”

I stared at the title and opened my mouth to Nahanna.

“… I think it’s worth a try.”

The risk is definitely high.

but… ,I thought I could do well.

**

“So you stayed up all night last night?”

“Yes. I created a new concept and modified the choreography a little… ,Then it turned out that it was morning.”

At breakfast, Park Yoo-jung and Lee Hye-jung asked with wide eyes, and I nodded.

“… Wow, it’s okay, right?”

“What… ,You know, my physical strength. It’s not hard even if I just stayed up all night.”

“No… ,Not my sister… .”

“… Hmm?”

Sigh-.

With a worried expression, Park Yoo-jung pointed to not me but the person next to me.

And next to me… .

“Ugh… ,Huh… .”

… There was Nahanna, swinging her body around like a zombie.

Na Hanna stayed up all night with me yesterday as punishment for keeping her mouth shut even though she had an idea.

… Thanks to you, it looks like this now.

‘still… ,A path of escape has been opened.’

Thanks to spending the night last night refining our ideas, light came to light on the stage where there was no answer.

Now all that was left was to rally the other team members and practice.

‘It was all because of the Heavenly Demon Illusion.’

The reason I was able to keep Nahanna, who was uncooperative, with me all night was because of the illusion of the Heavenly Demon.

‘I didn’t know you could use it in everyday life.’

Even though it was only a primary skill, it seemed to have infinite uses.

“Ugh… ,Purr… .”

“Oh, sister. She’s sticking her nose into the soybean paste soup?”

“Save it roughly.”

Therefore, I decided to focus on practicing for the remaining period and learn more about the Heavenly Demon Illusion.

**

During the four days remaining until the main competition, I devoted myself to practicing and learning about the Heavenly Demon’s Illusion.

And I learned several facts.

First of all, the cooldown of Heavenly Demon Illusion is not updated every 24 hours, but can be used immediately when the day changes.

For example, if you used the Heavenly Demon Illusion at 23:59 on April 25th, you can also use the Heavenly Demon Illusion 2 minutes later at 00:01 on April 26th.

And secondly, the part that changed to Heavenly Demon Hwanhok does not continue for a long period of time.

For example, Nahanna, who was fascinated by me and worked with me all night… .

“… What did I do yesterday… .”

… He was very embarrassed that he had talked about his sisters yesterday, that he had come up with an idea for the arrangement, and that he had been working with me all night.

And then I returned to my old self again.

In addition, whenever he met me, he avoided eye contact as if he was embarrassed, so it became more troublesome than before… .

what… ,It’s okay. I already drank all the sweet water anyway.

And the third characteristic of the Heavenly Demon Illusion that I discovered.

I realized that Heavenly Demon Illusion could be applied in daily life, and as soon as the cooldown was over, I went to see Seo Yu-jin.

If you use the Heavenly Demon Illusion… ,I was wondering if I could bring Seo Yu-jin, who was currently in a critical state, to her senses.

“Yujin.”

“… … hmm?… What is it?”

For the first time in a few days, Seo Yu-jin’s eyes had turned dark.

Feeling sorry for the child who had poor stamina and stayed up all night often, I immediately cast Heavenly Demon Illusion.

and… .

[I cast the 1st Heavenly Demon Magic skill, Heavenly Demon Illusion!]

[The cast failed!]

“… … !”

… Failed.

The third characteristic of the Heavenly Demon Illusion obtained here.

The Heavenly Demon Illusion does not apply to everyone.

Maybe it’s because of Seo Yu-jin’s characteristics as a military person that Heavenly Demon’s Hwanhok doesn’t work… .

“Why don’t you say anything when you call someone?”

“Ah… .”

While I was confused because the Heavenly Demon Illusion did not work, Seo Yu-jin got irritated and asked me.

So I hurriedly said something to her.

“… Are you ready for the stage well these days?”

“… … .”

And at my question, Seo Yujin’s expression suddenly darkened.

I felt like something was not going well.

“… … I don’t know. Even if I try to do something well, I feel like I’m at a standstill… ,No matter how much I practice, I keep… .… Wait.”

Seo Yu-jin continued speaking with a depressed expression… .

“But you’re on the opposing team! What is it? Did you ask this on purpose to spy on me?!”

I guess I finally realized that I was in team 1, so I got angry.

“No… ,I’m not like that… .”

“ That’s it! I’m thinking of coming up to you pretending to be friendly and then sneakily stabbing you in the back! I really don’t trust anyone here! ”

Then, as usual, he glared at me, snorted once, and left.

“Oh my… .”

I didn’t call him like that to make him angry, but it had the opposite effect.

I just watched Seo Yu-jin’s back as she was leaving.

The sight of her walking away muttering angrily looked somewhat pitiful.

‘Rather than that… ,It’s still a difficult situation over there.’

I didn’t mean to spy on him, but I unintentionally became aware of Team 2’s situation.

Unlike Team 1, who escaped the abyss, Team 2 seems to be still in trouble.

‘Yoo Seol… ,Still nothing… ?’

If you ruin the stage during a team competition, no matter how rumored it is, it will be a huge blow.

No matter how much it hurt, I couldn’t believe that someone so evil would neglect the team.

So I tilted my head and returned to the practice room.

and… .

The time for this contest came quickly.
