Magical Girl of Chaos: Magical Rampage

I feel like the number of superhumans has increased significantly.

The destruction of the Demon Realm seems to have had a huge impact, as the birth of superhumans has restarted much earlier than expected.

As evidence, I see superhumans here and there casually using their abilities in their daily lives.

Since using abilities isn’t restricted, it’s not uncommon to see them around.

“Can you take a photo for me?”

“Huh? Sure.”

“Wow~!”

By the way, while walking, a little fan asked me to take a photo.

I’ve been releasing my perception distortion lately, thinking it’s becoming pointless, so this kind of thing happens frequently now.

Honestly, it’s a bit annoying, but I don’t think it’s bad, so I’m just enduring it.

I can’t hide forever using perception distortion anyway.

That said, it’s not all good.

Religious fanatics pick fights, or the few disgusting religious zealots who survived start spewing nonsense… Religion really annoys me.

Even if they shut up when I glare at them because they feel threatened, I often want to wipe them all out.

Because those still obsessed with religion are one of the main culprits holding humanity back rather than helping it.

The next main culprits are the idiots preaching political correctness.

By the way… Did Michael Jackson feel like this too?

He couldn’t even shop normally when he was alive, so he really enjoyed experiencing normalcy in a regular mart.

No matter where I go, I can’t shake the feeling that people are flocking to me.

Still, thanks to people becoming less barbaric compared to the past, it doesn’t disrupt my life much… but extreme fans and antis are still a problem.

“I want to become a magical girl too~!”

“Ah, haha…”

What’s most annoying lately isn’t extreme fans or antis.

It’s these kids innocently shouting that they want to become magical girls.

We don’t need more magical girls now, and I don’t want to take responsibility for making them one.

So, I’d rather they ask the fairies about it.

And if they’re talentless, it’ll just make them cry, so I can’t bring myself to say anything…

“That’s not my area, so ask the mascots.”

“Eh~!”

“Here, have some Fairy Realm chocolate.”

“Ah, thank you~!”

So, in these situations, I usually hand them some chocolate bought from a Fairy Realm shop and send them on their way.

If you give them something tasty, they usually get distracted and leave, so it’s the easiest way.

Honestly, it’s not the best method, but there’s no better option, so…

“Wow, it’s Rampage!”

“Hey, can I take a photo with you?”

“……”

As soon as I entered the cafe, the part-time workers immediately started asking for photos.

Strangely, this always happens when I enter a cafe.

It’s not like it costs me anything, so I oblige, but it’s a bit annoying every time.

…Well, it’s not bad being in the middle of girls taking photos.

Though Pretty Heart might go yandere if she saw this.

“Your chocolate frappe is ready~.”

At least the workers are efficient, so I quickly got my chocolate frappe and left the cafe.

Maybe because the sun was shining brightly, the chocolate frappe tasted better than usual as I strolled around.

More people started gathering, asking for autographs and photos.

It feels strange that my life has turned out like this, but it’s not bad.

I’m experiencing firsthand how much magical girls are loved.

That fact alone makes me feel a bit better.

“…You’re really popular, sis.”

“What, were you here?”

“Total superstar.”

Diamond Dust is here too.

Wait, weren’t you just holed up in your room eating snacks and playing games before I left? When did you sneak out?

“…Ah.”

“Don’t forget you’re pretty popular too. You’ve been rising in popularity lately.”

“Ugh…”

This girl, hasn’t she been watching TV or portal news lately?

I’m the same, but I only know because Chubby keeps telling me useless stuff.

“Let’s head back.”

“Huh? Is it okay to use magic without transforming?”

“Why not? I’ve already released the perception distortion, so there’s no need to hide.”

“Ah… Oh, by the way, I came out to buy some cheesecake…”

“…Let’s go get some cake.”

If we stay here any longer, more people will crowd around, so I flew using magic.

I also grabbed Diamond Dust and headed to a hotel cafe to buy cheesecake.

After ordering quite a bit, I decided to use the [Gate] to go back since the crowd would probably gather again on the way home.

“Ugh~…”

“Today was especially crowded…”

“Well, the heat isn’t the problem, but it’s frustrating when the streets get blocked like that…”

“Yeah…”

After getting home, I took a bite of ice cream.

Even though I don’t sweat or feel physically unwell from the heat, there’s still some discomfort.

Eating something cold like ice cream really helps with that.

I can endure it, but there’s no need to suffer unnecessarily.

I’m not that dumb, even if I still train a lot.

…I should watch some TV.

“…Oh, do retired magical girls get pensions?”

“Was that a thing?”

“I guess so. Seems like the country’s doing better than I thought lately.”

“…I still think it’s the same, but maybe they’re doing it because they’re scared of you, sis.”

“I only kill trash who exploit magical girls. I never asked for anything. Back then, I was angry because they broke their promises.”

“From a third-party perspective, it doesn’t seem that way…”

Hmm… I guess Diamond Dust thinks I’m threatening them into doing this.

But all I’ve done recently is kill politicians who were exploiting magical girls and selling their remains…

Honestly, I don’t care if they use political agendas to exploit victims and their families, but exploiting the remains of dead magical girls for political gain is a different story.

If it ended with honoring heroes annually, it’d be fine, but most politicians in our country are criminals, so they always have dirty intentions.

…Well, whether they honor them or not, it doesn’t matter now.

It’s just a footnote in history, and it’s up to us, the surviving magical girls, to remember and honor them.

“…Sis.”

“What?”

“Media outlets worldwide are flooding us with interview requests and festival invitations.”

“…Why?”

“Well, they’re saying it’s the 10th anniversary of the victory in the Great Demon War…”

“……”

It’s nice to be treated this way, but honestly, it’s a bit annoying.

Going to those events would just be a political show, and it’s uncomfortable.

I’m not a politician, and I don’t like getting attention for something like this.

I don’t want to disrupt my daily life unless it’s necessary.

…Still, I guess I can do some interviews.

It’s too much if they all come at once, so let’s schedule them by country.

“I’m back~.”

“Oh, welcome back.”

“Heehee… Sis~!”

“Hey, I told you not to dive at me every time you come in.”

Pretty Heart just came back and immediately dove at me again.

She clings to me with a carefree smile, and it seems like she’ll never change no matter how much time passes.

Well, that’s part of Pretty Heart’s charm.

…But I wish she’d learn to hold back a little.

“Hehe, where did you go today?”

“Just took a walk and had a drink.”

“Your usual people-watching?”

“That’s harsh… It’s just a walk.”

“But you observe every single person you pass, right?”

“…Not really.”

“Liar~.”

Lately, I don’t observe everyone.

I’ve done enough of that to get bored, so now I only look for suspicious movements.

Superhuman criminals these days use really sneaky methods.

“Where did you go?”

“Me? I met up with friends! Everyone’s going crazy about skincare to prepare for their 30s!”

“Ah… Well, women tend to care a lot about their appearance. Their skin ages faster than men’s, and biologically, appearance matters more.”

“Sis, you’ll always be cute, so it’s fine!”

“Is that so…”

This girl, she’s still the same, thinking I’m all she needs…

I should at least give her some chocolate to calm her down.

“…You haven’t changed in 10 years.”

“Yeah, I guess…”

Pretty Heart is happily eating chocolate next to me.

Her pure, happy expression is endearing, but her way of expressing desires is a bit too pure.

I wish she’d tone it down a little…

“By the way, there were a lot of reporters and media people around today. Did something happen?”

“Huh? Oh~ It’s because the 10th anniversary of the Great Demon War is coming up.”

“…Ah! That’s right!”

“Well, the Demon Realm was pretty much a one-man show, so they probably want to interview me. They’ve already interviewed the magical girls who fought outside against the monsters and demons.”

“I got interviewed a lot too… Before entering the Demon Realm, I set up a bunch of regeneration zones everywhere!”

“Really? I didn’t know you did that…”

“That’s because you charged in without saying anything!”

Pretty Heart did quite a lot, huh…

Well, she has abilities specialized for that kind of thing.

All I can do is fight.

Now, I can do anything using 「Chaos」, but since it’s based on two 「Concepts」, there are limits.

In that sense, 「Chaos」 is both diverse and singular, I guess?

“By the way, there’s a worldwide pre-festival happening. It’s for the 10th anniversary of the Great Demon War!”

“That makes sense. So that’s why it felt like a festival atmosphere?”

Hmm… I want to enjoy the festival.

No matter what anyone says, it’s a festival for magical girls, so as a fairy magical girl, I can’t miss it.

“Alright, let’s enjoy the pre-festival and the festival to the fullest.”

“Okay~.”

“Let’s do it! But before that…”

“…What now?”

“…Let’s have a hot festival too!”

“Eek.”

“I’ve held back long enough!”

“Ugh…”

Oh dear… Today, the polar bear loses its habitat again…
