Chapter 12

Today is the day my friends are coming over.

Just the fact that my friends are coming over makes me feel good for no reason.

Is it just me, or does everyone feel this way?

Well, as long as I’m happy, that’s all that matters.

“Let’s see… Should I order some delivery? Shrimp… salmon… chicken… and some other good side dishes…”

“Ah! I think they’re here!”

“Go open the door.”

“Got it!”

The rest… Ah, this should do.

Now that the delivery orders are done, it’s been a while since I’ve seen my friends’ faces…

…Only Daeyoung showed up.

Huh? But this guy grew a beard?

“You here?”

“…Are you really Dabin?”

“Yeah.”

“Wow… Damn… I saw you on chat beforehand, but it’s still surreal. I should’ve become a Magical Girl too, seriously.”

“What Magical Girl? You’ve got no talent. But is it just you so far?”

“Seems like it? But wow, you’ve changed so much. How much did you even get to pull this off?”

“Me? …Around 10 billion, give or take?”

“Whoa… That’s like hitting the lottery, isn’t it?”

“Pretty much.”

Still, only Daeyoung’s here…

They all took the same day off, so they shouldn’t be late.

Plus, they always come together.

“Where are the others?”

“Others? Dunno? We were just talking about meeting you after so long, didn’t even discuss the time. They’ll show up, I guess.”

“Alright… I ordered a bunch of side dishes for delivery, so eat up.”

“Side dishes? By the way, you didn’t just fill the fridge with beer again, did you?”

“Nah. Now that I’m rolling in cash, I bought all kinds of aged alcohol.”

“…You? Can I check the fridge?”

“Go ahead.”

What’s he doing, checking out what’s in the fridge…

No, you guys kept complaining about only having beer, so I bought all sorts of stuff.

“Whoa…”

“Done? And from now on, I’m making thousands a month.”

“Seriously?”

“Lately, Earl-Class and Marquis-Class monsters have been appearing frequently. Just in the surrounding areas, there’s at least one Earl-Class a week. Plus, Marquis-Class emergency dispatches happen occasionally.”

“…Isn’t that, like, super dangerous?”

“Well, I usually get dispatched to wipe them out, so as long as I guide things properly to avoid casualties, it’s not that dangerous.”

“You’re practically our country’s last hope.”

“Not just hope—I *am* the hope. Right now, in our country, there’s only one other person besides me who can solo a Marquis-Class.”

“Damn.”

Looks like he picked out the drink he wants.

…But why is this guy creeping closer to me?

“……”

“…What are you doing?”

“…Nothing, just wanted to test something.”

“Test what?”

“When I flex my abs, all the girls swoon. Since you’re a girl now, I wondered if it’d work on you too.”

“Stop messing around. And cut back on the clubbing, you idiot. Don’t get bitten by some gold-digger.”

“Still, it’s a relief. And I can’t quit clubbing.”

What’s with this guy and his random experiments…

Anyway, looks like the others are here too.

The delivery should arrive soon, so I’ll set up the table in the living room.

“Chubby!”

“Yep!”

Still, those guys aren’t as late as I thought.

…Wait, why are they coming with the delivery guys?

“Yo~ You ordered all this? …Wait, are you really Dabin?”

“What, is that Dabin? She looks different from her Magical Girl form.”

They’re saying the same thing as Daeyoung.

Probably because of the Perception Distortion Effect.

“That’s probably the Perception Distortion Effect. It’s the same appearance, but it makes others perceive you differently.”

“Ah~ Now that you mention it, she does look like her Magical Girl form again.”

“Real.”

By the way, did they bring everything I ordered? Let’s see… Yep, it’s all there.

No need to wait for the rest of the food then.

“You guys here?”

“What? You got here first?”

“Damn, you’re fast. And don’t start drinking without us.”

Alright, now that everyone’s here, let’s unpack and set everything up.

Chubby’s gonna clean up anyway, so no worries about making a mess.

“…Oh, right! By the way, do you, uh, masturbate?”

“…No?”

“Seriously?!”

“Real?!”

“Stop messing around!”

These guys… The first thing they talk about when we meet is masturbation…

“Really, I don’t. I tried watching porn and touching myself, but instead of getting turned on, it just felt numb and gross.”

“They say female pleasure is way more intense than male pleasure… Was that all a lie?”

“Probably not a lie? It’s just that things like erogenous zones or libido don’t seem to exist for me. I guess it’s just how Magical Girl bodies are.”

“…That’s so sad.”

“Real.”

“How could they take that away from you…”

Why are *you* guys feeling sorry for me?

The person in question doesn’t really care, so why are you making it awkward?

“Ah, but I do get periods. So I took a permanent egg-suppressing drug from the Magical Girl Store.”

“Whoa… You can’t feel pleasure but still get periods? That’s so unfair.”

“If you have sex, it’s just responsibility without any pleasure…”

“That’s so sad…”

…Stop looking at me with those pitying eyes.

I’m really fine, but if you guys keep pitying me, it’s just gonna ruin the mood.

“Anyway, let’s drink. What have you guys been up to? I’ve just been killing demons and monsters like usual.”

“Same as always. But since it’s my dad’s company, the team leader’s been walking on eggshells around me after finding out.”

What, I thought you’d be sitting in the CEO’s seat thanks to your dad, but you just joined as a regular employee?

What kind of education were they even trying to give you?

“Nothing much for me either.”

“Same here. Big companies are all the same.”

Is that how companies are…

I got fired after just a few months of working there.

Well, it was a crappy company anyway, so no big deal.

“Anything else? I’ve been trying to train some juniors lately, but only three of them stick around. The rest run away when I look at them.”

“Pfft… Seriously? How scary are you that they all run off~?”

“Well, if you see the expression I make during those intimidating broadcasts, you’d understand why they run.”

“You’ve seen it too? It was seriously terrifying.”

“Why are you guys talking about how scary I am? I don’t make that face normally.”

Sigh~… But at least those three are growing well under my guidance.

Honestly, at first, I thought maybe not even one would stick around, but three did…

“Nothing else to talk about… Oh, but the most shocking thing was hearing you suddenly became rich.”

“Real. You moved to an expensive apartment and changed everything. At first, I thought you won the lottery or something.”

“Right. When I heard you got a massive compensation for all the past records, I was amazed. I’ve never seen our country apologize and act so quickly.”

“Well, there’s nothing that can’t be done with power. I just marched into the support headquarters, showed them my power, and they folded instantly.”

“Whoa~.”

“Well, the international community ultimately follows the logic of power, so given your strength, it’s only natural. You could probably destroy a country single-handedly, couldn’t you?”

“After all, you soloed a Duke-Class demon that could wipe out a country in an instant the second time it appeared… It’s possible. That was three years ago, so you’ve gotten even stronger.”

…After that, I pretty much abandoned my studies and went all-in on killing demons and monsters, so that’s probably why I’ve gotten this strong.

Plus, I’ve got talent, and I was at my peak growth rate back then…

“…Oh, by the way, why do they only pick kids to become Magical Girls? I’ve always wondered, so I’m asking now. Do you know?”

“…That? Well, they’re not idiots, so there’s a reason.”

“So, what’s the reason?”

“This is really good. But what were we talking about?”

“Why Magical Girls are only kids.”

They only pick kids, huh… Well, it’s only natural for people who don’t know the structure to wonder.

That’s why there are idiots who protest, calling them trash for making kids fight monsters.

But if they hadn’t done that, Earth would’ve already been taken over by monsters.

“Most people don’t know this, but Magical Girls’ growth rate plummets once they become adults. On the other hand, kids have incredibly high growth rates. So to quickly train them to take down high-class demons like Earl-Class or Marquis-Class, they have no choice. What takes a girl five years would take an adult twenty years. If they only recruited adults, we wouldn’t be able to stop the invasion and would’ve been wiped out. Plus, maintaining that many people in a girl’s form costs a lot.”

“Really? So it was a necessary choice… And having aunties or grandmas as ‘Magical Girls’ would be a bit…”

“Exactly. If they started recruiting only adults now, there’d be a gap, and the Demon Realm isn’t stupid—they’d invade during that time. It’s just the lesser evil. Otherwise, we can’t stop the Demon Realm.”

“Ah… So we don’t have a chance to become Magical Girls anymore…”

“Stop whining about wanting to be a Magical Girl.”

What do you mean no chance…

You never had a chance to begin with since you’ve got no talent.

“Well, anyway… The period when Magical Girls grow the fastest is during middle school. That’s when their talents truly blossom, and if they hunt demons diligently, they can quickly become strong enough to take on Earl-Class demons or monsters.”

“Now that you mention it, you used to skip class a lot in middle school, huh?”

“Was that to hunt demons?”

“Probably? Her expression back then was seriously intense.”

As they guessed, I spent all day crazily hunting demons and monsters back then.

Especially in middle school, I even took on Duke-Class, so my growth rate was insane.

Not that I stopped hunting demons and monsters in other periods.

“But how did you study while being a Magical Girl in high school?”

“…What? What are you talking about? That’s why I joined the company as a high school graduate.”

“Oops.”

“But looking back, dropping out and focusing on being a Magical Girl was the right move.”

“Real.”

It’s not like I dropped out.

I tried balancing both, but my brain wasn’t good enough, so I failed.

An IQ of around 120 has its limits.

Plus, I wasn’t really interested in studying, so forcing myself ruined my efficiency.

“But still, seeing you doing well makes me feel at ease.”

“Real. I was worried the guy who’s the embodiment of a hero might kill himself over money.”

“Seeing the guy who used to live in that tiny studio now treating us with all kinds of alcohol, it’s like he’s living the dream. Honestly, that studio was a shock every time I visited.”

“These guys, seriously…”

Is that the mindset of people who’ve always been well-off…

No, 200 a month isn’t exactly lacking for someone living alone.

Well, now that I’ve tasted money, if someone told me to go back to that, I’d kill them.

“Anyway, there’s still plenty of alcohol left, so let’s drink up.”

“The one who’s the most drunk is talking the most.”

“What? I’m immune to poison now, so I don’t get drunk.”

“Seriously?!”

“So jealous…”

“Ah… Really, I should’ve become a Magical Girl…”

…These are my friends, but they’re so consistent.

That’s why we’re still hanging out, but…

Well, anyway, it’s fun catching up with them.

And so, we drank and drank at my place until everyone passed out.

Of course, I didn’t pass out.
