“Hmm, does it make sense to call a mascot like this? Isn’t it supposed to always be by the magical girl’s side? Otherwise, what would happen if a villain attacked a magical girl without a mascot?”

“Why, it’s okay. The villains aren’t as smart as you think.”

“Isn’t that something a stupid magical girl should say, putting the worst, strongest villain right next to a magical girl without a mascot?”

“Why, what can a harmless villain do? And someone like me can use strong magic without the help of a mascot?”

“You must be foolish. So you sent the mascot to a faraway world to rest and now you are calling him?”

“Because I need it. And I didn’t send you on vacation. I guess there’s something urgent to take care of over there. I can’t stay here forever.”

“What, you’re calling me without even contacting me.”

“I already contacted you in advance. I asked you briefly while you were cleaning, and you said it was okay now, so you could call me whenever you wanted.”

“What a weird mascot you’ve chosen. He can’t even find it on his own.”

“It’s hard, so can you say this is a little bit of consideration?”

While they were bickering like that, I could see a small figure hiding in the middle of the circle, emitting white smoke, as if the magic circle had already been completed.

And that little shadow took a stance as if it was glaring at me, as if it was aiming at me,

He jumped into my face and covered me.

“Ugh, ugh!?”

“This damn villain! Where the hell do you think you are! And you’re bullying our precious magical girl?”

“Ugh?! Phew! What the heck am I! This damn cat-like mascot, Naburangi!”

“What? What did you just say?”

“Get out of here! Go back to your master!”

Haa, haa… It took me a while to get the damn cat off.

What the heck, does this make any sense?

“Look, Blanc. You’re trying to reform such a vicious kid.. Yeah? What do you think about just letting him out there and keeping an eye on him? No matter how much I think about it, raising him together is impossible.”

“Jibril. We promised not to say that, right?”

“Haa, really. Think about it again. Do you really need to care about such a villain?”

“What, am I bothering you?”

“That’s not it, let’s think about it with common sense. It’s weird for a magical girl to live with a villain! If you reflect for a thousand years in a place like Marina and really reflect, you’ll get another thousand years of atonement and… Ugh! Ugh! ”

Blanc hurriedly covered the cat’s mouth, but whatever.

Everyone who wanted to hear it has already heard it.

“Vine… Ugh, even if I explain it to you, you won’t understand… You know? Cats are a little… stubborn, and stuff? Just ignore it… Uh, yeah… ”

What makes Blanc so sensitive?

It’s not the first or second time I’ve heard something like that.

I’ve lived and endured listening to those lumps of negative words, worse than the ones I’ve heard countless times there, the ones that were spat out by that shitty cat.

It doesn’t hurt at all to hear those words.

Well, it feels like pouring salt on an already torn wound.

I don’t even feel like the salt hurts. Well, that’s just a metaphor.

“I never heard that cat from the beginning. Oh, I saw the cushions that the mascots use, but I wondered where they went. Did they all fall over there?”

“Well, that’s right. Eden disappeared. And then something happened over there, too. You know? Isn’t that how they were originally?”

“I’ve heard rumors that this weird talking cat can turn into a human, but is that true? No, isn’t that more important?”

“Oh, right. Jibril. I have a question for you.”

“What? It’s gotten quieter over there now. If you can ask slowly, why are you asking so hastily?”

“Well, it’s kind of an urgent matter. I told you about contract magic last time, right?”

“Ah, that? But, why? Did it fail? Whose contractee did you become?”

“No, that’s not it. I think I didn’t hear the explanation properly at the time.”

“Huh…? Didn’t you give me all the necessary explanation?”

“At that time, I was so distracted by something else. I was really confused.”

“Really… I get it. It’s easier to think of contract magic as literally using a servant horse. Oh, do you know what a servant horse is?”

“Well, I’ve been to your world before. You know what it’s like, right?”

“Yes. It’s a magic of the demon tribe that was created to create a loyal slave who would gladly jump into the limbs if the master wanted to.”

“Yeah, I remember up to that point. What I want to know exactly is how much control I can have. ”

“I remember explaining this in detail last time. I’ll explain it again.”

“Contract magic was originally developed by the demons of our world, who made a strict contract that only made the owner obey. It developed into the current contract magic.”

“To put it simply, it’s comfortable to think that you have obtained true ownership.”

“Ownership… ”

“Possession of the body, even the ownership of the mind. If you want, you can change common sense, and reveal all your inner thoughts. After all, it is a magic that the Demons created to turn the captives they captured into slaves.”

“Then, everything Ellis told me is true.”

Blanc continued speaking, looking at Ellie intently.

Of course, Ellie must have felt very wronged because she was suspected of not really lying.

“So, you can read minds, but how do you do it?”

“Well, I don’t know much about that. All I know is what I know from books, but such sensory things were passed down orally among the demons.”

“Then, there’s something else I was wondering about. Ellis says that her magic power is okay because I have it, but what does that mean?”

“Huh? Ellis, that guy. He’s a freak. He can create his own magic, but he’s a parasite to his master?”

“Ahh… That’s because there’s a reason. Apparently, the monsters of Eden can only generate magic power if they commit evil deeds. It must be a malicious device. So that they can only use magic power for bad things.”

“Well, anyway. It’s a little bit, but it’s actually possible. It might be possible if you put it in.”

“Wow, this is magic with all sorts of functions.”

“Because we’re completely handing over ownership of the core. Of course. In our world, contract magic… really isn’t used. I don’t know about that deteriorated magic.”

“Haa. Okay, I get it. At least I have no reason not to trust Ellis.”

“No, I told you everything from the beginning… But you said you couldn’t believe it… ”

“Ellis, be quiet. There’s a reason for everything.”

“You’re going to come up with some weird, nonsensical reason.”

“No, you were planning to deceive me from the first time we met? And after that… ”

“Oh, no. That’s…!”

“Don’t you think that’s a reputation you’ve earned yourself?”

“No, ugh… ”

“Ellie must have had her own thoughts. Well. It’s not like she’s a bad person.”

I don’t know if he was bullying Ellie or if Ellie was really lying, but at least I know the character of Ellie that I’ve seen so far.

Blanc did try to stop himself from saying anything.

But, Blanc’s words that came after that changed my perception a little.

“No, I’m sure he robbed a bank and said he was going to do something. Maybe?”

“Yes?”

“You said you were going to rob a bank and have a happy life with Vinnie. You thought she was in Marina, so you had a really cute idea of going to Marina.”

“Ah, umm… ”

There is no way to shield this.

Ellie, isn’t this your fault?

“No, that’s all a joke, s, no way. Seriously, would you… ?”

“Ellis? You’re lying, Tina.”

“No, you still can’t read minds, right?”

“No, it shows from the expression on your face.”

“Huh…? That can’t be…? How thoroughly do I manage my facial expressions…?”

“Hey, if you observe her facial expressions enough to read the emotional turmoil in her expressionless face, you will be able to judge that much on your own.”

“Ah, no… T, what is that… ”

“Anyway, then I can trust you and get the Eden headquarters pass. Then I have to set a schedule for that… ”

“When will that cat go back to my hometown? I don’t want to see it anymore.”

Getting rid of that cheap fake cat should also be a priority.

This is not a cat that runs around this dormitory spitting out fur.

Besides, if you don’t like what I’m doing, you’ll do all kinds of dirty work.

It’s better to just pour salt on the wound.

“I don’t want to see you anymore either? To think that I’ve come all this way to see a villain… Oh, my head… ”

“Blanc, how can that shameless cat be so bad? Swish swish babble babble really.”

“Jibril? Sorry to call you that, but the kid keeps trying to kick you out.”

“What? If you’re going to leave, you should leave yourself. Why are you trying to kick out the owner?”

“Do you know how much trouble it is to clean up after animals have lost their fur?”

“What? Cleaning? Then, what Blanc has been saying so far… Wait a minute, Blanc. I’ll go rest in your room. My mind, my head hurts so bad… ”

After leaving those words, the strange white cat went up to Blanc’s room.

It’s annoying to have the same color as Blanc’s eyes.

Ugh, my hair is falling out.

I cleaned it thoroughly.
