***

Lyrical Star reminded me of an illustration I once saw in a textbook.

[Mister, do you know the way to the post office?]

[Yes, I know.]

It wasn’t just her idea that the situation in the illustration that seemed to make no sense seemed to overlap with the present.

As if threatening a wild beast with a spear, Lyrical Star held out his staff further forward.

“You didn’t ask that!”

She wondered for a moment whether this evil cadre was attacking her in some other way.

It’s a way to make the other person angry by making them frustrated.

“Then what is it?”

Normally, this would have been just an absurd thought, but the hypothesis was given weight by the persona’s gaze looking at me with vain eyes.

“The mysterious power of the stars!”

As Lyrical Star chanted the spell, the tip of the staff that stuck out like a spear glowed purple.

The small purple beads expanded and turned into a long string, which flew towards the Persona.

The string was already wrapped around Persona’s wrist, and was tightened tightly like a snake hunting its prey.

The Persona frowned and screamed as the string dug into her wrist.

“Ahh! The cosplay molester here is kidnapping people!!!”

” Shut up!!”

In the end, she had to summon another string to block his mouth.

The lyrical star flew up into the sky, holding the back of Persona, whose hands and mouth were tied.

It will be like that a long time ago….

she thought to herself.

If anyone had asked her what the advantage of flying was, she would have answered that she didn’t have to deal with traffic or anything like that.

Like a seal in the sea, she swam through the empty sky.

The sky, which was far from the ground, and the flower fields embroidered with various colors were a delight to the eyes.

The Persona, which had been struggling throughout the flight, also stopped moving.

“……”

Glancing, Lyrical Star turned his head and looked at him.

It was awkward to see his face for the first time, but his eyes were unforgettable. Because I always saw it through the gap in the mask.

Those eyes, which were filled with anger and hostility, contained a feeling of admiration.

Have you been influenced by the beauty of nature created by civilization?

I don’t feel the evil energy that always radiates, nor the desire to kill myself at all.

She sighed softly. I also belatedly realized that I was worried that they might take him away without a plan.

No, it’s right to take him first.

Since the restraints are secure, there should be no problem.

She reassured herself and quickened her pace.

As the wind hitting my face grew stronger, the Persona caught on the back struggled again.

The magical girl’s landing place was her home. It was a single-family home that was rarely seen in a city crowded with apartments.

The path leading from the main gate to the front door was paved with stones, and weeds were messyly asserting themselves between the cracks in the stones.

She opened the front door, turned on all the switches, and dragged him into the kitchen.

He sat him down at the table, and the magical girl sat across from him.

When she, still wearing the flashy outfit of a magical girl, took out her wand again, the persona’s eyes widened.

‘What the hell are you going to do again!’

It seemed like he was saying.

“Libra.”

When she cast a spell, green light erupted with a buzzing sound.

The bound man closed his eyes tightly as if he was being treated badly.

As if scanning a person, the light looked up and down the man sitting in the chair.

After a few back and forth movements, the light disappeared, and the Lyrical Star’s face became even more determined.

It felt like my mind had become more complicated due to the unwanted results.

The lyrical star leaned forward with a stern look on his face.

“I promise. I’ll be quiet.”

She aimed her wand like a gun.

The man thought for a moment and nodded slowly.

“You promised?”

She asks one more time to confirm.

nod nod

When she spoke as if she was really going to let him go, the man nodded vigorously.

“Good….”

She snapped her fingers, and the wand slurped through the string that covered her hand and mouth.

“……”

The man looks at me while rubbing my numb wrist.

“You said his name was Kang In-ho, right? Was Persona an alias?”

Lyrical Star asks questions.

She intended to talk like this and get information.

It was confirmed that the evil energy had disappeared from him thanks to the power of Libra.

I don’t know why he looks like an ordinary person, but I think we can get information about the enemy from him.

Maybe, we can find out the weaknesses of the remaining Four Heavenly Kings.

However, she was painfully aware that things in the world did not go the way she wanted.

And that realization did not disappoint her this time either.

“Save people!!! He is a serial cosplay kidnapper!!!”

As the man, who flipped his chair back and ran away through the front door, she had no choice but to raise her cane.

Phew Phew

The bullet fired with magical power pierced the man’s back, and his body stiffened and fell down like a criminal who had been hit by a Taser gun.

“Ah… I want to kill them all.”

It was the sincerity of a magical girl without any lies.
