Magical Girl Tyrant Sylph Chapter 120

Published at 30th of May 2023 10:28:53 AM

The first thing that caught the girl’s eye was a giant.

It was a black misty giant that looked as if it had been formed by condensing the distortions of this world, both disastrous and eerie.

When the giant takes a step forward, the earth trembles and several structures collapse as if they cannot bear the fearlessness of the giant. As if searching for something, the giant takes one step and then another, and the town known to the girl is evened out.

It is a fearsome existence that could be called a natural disaster, and there is nothing a tiny girl can do about it. They can only watch with bated breath the crumbling townscape and the cultural footprints that are being erased.

But these girls were different.

The beginning was a shimmering white-bladed sword.

The sword, flying with the force of an arrow, pierced the giant, followed by something like a black wave that struck the giant from behind. In addition, debris from collapsed buildings is thrown at them, shattering them, scattering small fragments.

The giant continue its march as if nothing had happened, but the girls do not give up. A huge magic circle appeared on the wall of a building that had survived the collapse, from which a great number of swords shot out, and then black waves converged into a thin beam that cut away the giant’s body. Furthermore, one clad in sky-blue clothing flanked the giant and kicked its huge body with force.

The giant was stopped in their efforts, but the battle was by no means in the balance.

Even as they valiantly face the fearsome giant, they can only do so much to stop them in their tracks. Even the appearance of two new supporters on the way to the battlefield does nothing to turn the tide of the war.

One wrong move and they could have been wiped out in the blink of an eye. The tension that was akin to walking on a tightrope was broken by the sudden appearance of a small girl dressed in vestments. This little girl was obviously younger than the girls, and if judged only by her appearance, she wouldn’t be much different from a little girl.

From there, it was just a matter of time.

The giant was whittled away by the girl who could manipulate tornadoes like a storm at will, and finally disappeared as if melting into tiny particles.

Who are these women?

Unidentified, glittering girls who manipulate an unknown power called magic.

Are they residents of a magical world who has appeared to protect this world, or are they wanderers who vows revenge against this black monster, or are they just ordinary girls who borrows the power of magic?

Various speculations fly and fizzle out, but there is only one thing that is certain. That is that their reason for fighting is to protect the world.

So people called them with respect, gratitude, and a little bit of friendliness.

Magical Girls.

「Uuuuh～ It’s still the coolest thing I’ve ever seen, no matter how many times I see it…」

The girl who was watching the images that stopped with the disappearance of the giant raises her voice as if moved to tears.

What the girl was watching was one of the videos posted on a certain video site. The girl understands that this isn’t a work of fiction, but a record of a real battle, although it might be considered a well-made special effects movie if shown to someone who does not know the circumstances. After all, the videos are posted on a video-sharing website dedicated to Magical Girls, which can be accessed from the official website of Magical Girls.

As the saying goes, this isn’t the first time the girl has seen the video; she has already watched it over and over again, so much so that the content is completely in her head from beginning to end.

The reason why she still watches the video again is because she is fascinated by a strong, dignified, and cute girl’s fighting style.

「She’s about my age, and she’s awesome.」

By the middle grades of grade school, many students have outgrown the magical girls and superheroines of children’s content. Even if some of them watch anime and special effects, not many dreamy children think that they too would like to become a Magical Girl someday.

In such a situation, a young girl still couldn’t give up her longing for such a glittering existence. She doesn’t know even a little bit about what a Magical Girl is, but she had a wish in the back of her mind that one day she would be like that.

Of course, she’s not ignorant or unashamed enough to tell her friends about it, and she manages to use the Internet, which she is not familiar with, to follow the activities of the Magical Girl until her parents, who both work after school, come home.

The video she was playing now was from the girl’s first public appearance, and the girl particularly liked it.

There are more than 10,000 Magical Girls throughout the country, and her town alone is currently protected by five Magical Girls. The girl’s strong feelings for her are unique among these, due in large part to her seemingly close proximity to her own age and her dramatic career.

Not long after her debut, the new Magical Girl who was previously a complete unknown reached the top class of Magical Girls, the Witch, and buried her powerful enemies toothlessly. In this way, she is adored and relied upon by various Magical Girls.

It would be a lie not to admire such a Cinderella story.

「Tyrant Sylph-san…」

She wanted to be like her someday. She wanted to be her friend and laugh with her. She wanted to be recognized by her and be her number one.

A variety of thoughts were intertwined, and the girl herself was uttering her name without really knowing what she wanted most. She won’t let her heart be burned by the endlessly growing heat, but let it dissipate.

Not a few of them, like girls, yearn for a particular Magical Girl. That’s true for girls as old as little girls, and it’s true for smaller children, and it’s true for bigger children.

And most of them, as they grow up, turn such longings into memories and walk away to find new dreams. She have come to terms with the reality that there is no such thing as being a Magical Girl, and she was moving on.

Yes, so maybe it was luck. Or maybe it was bad luck.

「Oosaki Rikchan, why don’t you become a magical girl～?」

That day a girl, Oosaki Rika, an ordinary fourth grader who just had a crush on a Magical Girl, got the key to the Treasury.
