“Arin, are you awake?”

“Ah, Yunseul unnie! You’re here?”

“Well, it looks okay. How was your experience with Vine?”

“Ugh… I don’t want to do it again… The difference in strength I felt was too overwhelming… ”

“Really? Yes, I said I would let you.”

“Yes, I adjusted the strength.”

“But Arin is so dead. Huh? This hat is…?”

“I don’t know exactly what Arin’s skills are. I only watched it on video, so how can I know exactly what her skills are?”

“Your hat was taken away?”

“You’re making the same argument as Arin. It’s already over, so I’m putting it on you.”

Blanc looked at me with a bewildered expression.

What, you keep saying that it’s wrong to give a hat that you care about to someone you care about?

Blanc asked the lying Arin again.

“So, we’ll continue to train like this with Binnie in the future. Is that okay?”

Arin, dumbfounded by Blanc’s words, stuttered and mumbled something incoherent before finally coming to her senses and answering.

“Eh…? Yes…? Huh? Eh…? I, I’ll keep going forward…?”

“Yeah, why is that?”

“Ah, ah… ? Then until you beat your sister… ?”

Hmm, I think Arin is mistaken about something.

“I’ll tell you the training plan later. Arin, you can go watch me and Blanc’s duel now.”

“Huh? You’re sparring with Yunseul unnie…? Even if she’s Binnie unnie… ”

“Arin has a lot of worries. She’s already tired of fighting with Blanc so much. Let’s call it a light warm-up.”

“Relaxation…you say?”

“Yes. Because Arin and I will be using our bodies a lot in the future. I will also have to become Eden’s Binney and Arin’s imaginary enemy.”

“Ah… ? Are we going to keep having the same conversation today… ?”

“No, I won’t just spar. Don’t worry.”

“Well, I was a little scared of you today… ”

“Ah, I’m fine now. Don’t worry.”

“More than that, in future training… Do I have to keep seeing that image…? I was scared because it didn’t seem like my sister… ”

“Even if it was scary, you’ll be encountering villains like this often in the future. Do you think he’s a mild villain? There are villains who do unspeakable things right in front of your eyes.”

“Haa… Yes… I think I can move my body a little now. Shh… ”

Arin said she was okay when she got out of bed.

What I’m saying is that it’s not moving at all right now.

“Hmm, it looks like it’s hard to move. What’s that redhead and crybaby doing? Don’t even pick up Arin quickly.”

When I point them out, only then do they step forward and say they will help Arin.

Arin seemed reluctant to be carried, saying she was fine, but eventually, she was carried on the redhead’s back and set off for the training grounds again.

In front of the training center gate where we arrived.

If you climb up here, there are observation seats where you can safely watch.

Arin and the other magical girls watch from there, while Blanc and I practice in the training grounds.

We need to take a break here for a moment.

“Oh, right. I’ll return this hat.”

As she said that, Arin put her hat on me while carrying me.

“I’m going to wear this hat by myself when I win fair and square! Now is the time to go up and analyze Unnie Bine’s power!”

“Haha… Arin too. Thank you. Yes. I wish I could take it away with your power.”

Yes. I put the hat that Arin gave me back on.

So that the curtain is in the center.

Blanc, who was opening the training ground door next to him, entrusts his belongings to the crybaby.

Then, he takes out his wand and transforms.

“Okay, let’s go in and start.”

“If I send a signal from above, then from then on. What do you think?”

“Okay. Are you ready?”

“Are you ready, Blanc?”

“Okay, let’s go in.”

Entering the training ground, everyone took their seats.

Move your body for a moment to check if there are any areas where your magic power is concentrated.

It moves properly, so check it one by one.

And, as always,

“It’s been a while. Magical Girl Blanc.”

“Yeah, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen that too.”

“How much did we fight?”

“At least 10 years.”

“My record… Did I win more?”

“No, I have more.”

“It’ll only make one difference.”

“That’s right. I have 855 wins, you have 854 wins.”

“It’s going to be a tie today.”

“No, there will be a difference, right?”

“As anyone pleases.”

“Ha, you’re confident, aren’t you? Isn’t it time to retire now?”

“When I’m old enough to retire, Yuri and the other magical girl sisters.”

“Aren’t they people who live long and narrow lives? Your accomplishments must be so great. Isn’t it worth ending it at this point?”

“Well, I was thinking of retiring because I lost my motivation, but when I heard those words, my motivation was rekindled.”

“I see. Well, if you’re motivated, I’m happy. It’ll make for a more fun fight. Should I set up a situation for you?”

“What kind of childish situational drama is this?”

“For example, a bad villain who kidnapped your precious little brother.”

“You?”

“Well, I mean, kidnapping Arin and doing this and that. It’s not like I’ve never tried creating a corrupted magical girl.”

“If Yuri heard that, she would be incredibly angry, right?”

“What are you talking about now? Why don’t you focus on sparring?”

“Haa, well. Let’s just say that. So. What do you want to do?”

“Now you have to defeat me and rescue Arin. Well, I’ll defeat you and rescue one more test subject for the corruption experiment.”

“Well, okay. That’ll do. The situation is cute, just like you.”

“… Did you call that a provocation?”

“I think it worked because your expression is slightly distorted.”

“Ha, who showed his expression.”

“You. You don’t think I don’t know, do you?”

“Ha, really.”

“Okay, fine. Shall we begin?”

“Yes, that’s right, Magical Girl Blanc.”

“It’s been a really, really long time. Binne.”

“Yes. Magical Girl Blanc. The vines that have been blocking your path have returned.”

After sending a signal to Arin that she was ready, Arin pressed the button behind her to start the countdown.

You’ve wasted money on useless things, Mr. Chairman.

The count of 3 is reduced to 1.

As their energies intersect, they fill the room.

When the training ground filled with only silence, the sound of a buzzer filled it.

The magical girl’s sword.

The villain’s dagger.

They run towards each other, aiming at each other.

I kicked the ground and blocked the magical girl’s sword coming down from the sky with two crossed daggers.

He opens the laser to full power and aims it at Blanc.

The direction Blanc always avoids is to her left.

Well, we’ll dig a trap there and make sure it goes to the right.

Seeing the laser being fired like that, Blanc fires his rifle in the direction he must have dodged.

As the dust settled inside the training ground, Blanc, who had not avoided the laser but only received it with his sword, looked at the broken training ground wall behind him in admiration.

“Wow… You’re going to break this wall? I wonder what the president will say later.”

“Ha, what can you say about that broken thing?”

“Well, we said we’d fight like this. You won’t say anything here, right?”

“Focus, Blanc.”

Charge at Blanc, who is doing something else.

He aims for Blanc’s neck with the dagger he is holding in his hand.

Naturally, the attack was easily deflected by her sword.

But, that’s not what I was aiming for.

He takes out the pistol with his non-dominant hand and fires it immediately.

How did it end up like this for Blanc?

For now, it would be better to distance ourselves again.

Since it was pushed into a wall, it hit the wall with its tail and flew to the other side to observe the situation.

“Ha, it was a surprise attack.”

“I saw everything, what kind of surprise attack is this?”

Well, as always, Blanc is fine.

“Shall we start now?”

“I wonder.”

Because we know each other so well.

He readjusts his hat, which was disheveled in the fierce battle, and looks at Blanc.

Now we can predict what kind of attack Blanc will do.

What are the possible attack avenues?

Take out the first wand and attack with magic…

Or continue the attack with the sword, the second wand you are currently using.

Well, you could probably do some fighting with your body strengthened.

Now I can see that my legs are slightly strengthened and that magical power is flowing into the hand holding the sword.

“Go. Vine?”

In an instant, Blanc thrusts a blade strengthened by magic in front of me.

Unfortunately, I dodged slightly, and the blade struck not my body but the wall of the training ground.

I aimed my tail at Blanc, whose movements were slightly delayed due to the sword being stuck in his hand.

He fires a laser he had prepared in advance at her.

Follow Blanc as he runs hard and dodges the lasers, leaving marks on the wall.

I gently knock away Blanc, who is running towards me.

“Are you finished?”

“You look a little tired. I guess I can win?”

“You look more tired. Are you an idiot who doesn’t even understand yourself?”

“What are you talking about?”

Blanc charged at me again and swung his sword.

The speed and direction of the swing were extremely irregular, so I just trusted my instincts and used my tail to defend.

A battle where a slight difference in speed determines the outcome.

I feel that thrill again, something I never thought I would feel during the battle with Arin earlier.

A faint smile appears as I recall those hectic times.

“Hahaha! This is it. Blanc. Isn’t it exciting?”

“That’s right. The villains that come out these days don’t really need to be tough, but I really didn’t know you could still have this much strength.”

Blanc her or myself.

The stimulation that this sparring gives me is something that has been a long time coming.

Because it was a stimulus that made me remember my youth again.

It’s like we’ve gone back in time.

Blanc’s sword glows and shrinks, and a wand appears in her hand.

I, too, extend my precious tail with all my might and aim for her.

A total of 476.

Ha, it’s a little lacking.

As for the parts that are lacking, you can just avoid them.

Her wand glowed, creating numerous magic circles around her.
