Chapter 15 - Magic and Night (1)
Magic and Night (1)
****
Fwoooosh—
I opened my eyes to a cool breeze.
A wide meadow and a country village.
I was standing next to a tree on a hill.
"Huh?"
Where am I?
Who am I?
"Ah, Ares…!"
Ah, right. I remembered.
I am Ares.
And this was—my grandmother's house, where I had come to visit for a short while because of my father's work.
I turned my body to the voice that called me.
There, a small, platinum-blonde girl was holding a large chest, …no, holding a diary was looking at me.
"Ellie…?"
"You remembered me…!"
Fling…!
'Oh, ooooh…!'
Squish!
Ellie threw the diary and ran to me, burying herself in my arms.
Her long, straight platinum-blonde hair swayed, and the sweet scent of a young girl could be felt.
Aah, why are girls' bodies all so soft like this.
"I missed you, I missed you…, Ares…."
"Yeah, Ellie. Me too…."
Huh?
But was Ellie's chest this big?
No, I guess it's a good thing if it's big.
No, no, that's not it, somehow…, I think it was small when she was a child.
And just then.
Ssk!
A rat popped out from beside the tree where Ellie and I were standing.
A pitch-black rat that was reminiscent of the night sky.
That rat spoke to me.
"Of course it's a dream, you idiot."
"Ah, so that's it."
As expected of NightRat.
You're helping me even in my dreams.
Huh? Huh huh?
But if it's a dream.
Squish….
"Ares…."
"Ellie…."
If it's a dream, isn't it okay to cross the line…?
Isn't it okay to not hold back?
My dream is my dream, imagination is free, and I am free within it.
"This bastard is getting horny even in his dream;;."
"Well, the me in the dream is me too. So, …can I do it?"
"ㅇㅇ, you can do it."
NightRat's permission was granted.
Wow, viva happy dream.
Flop!
"Ah, Ares…."
"Ellie, there was something I wanted to say to you 10 years ago."
"What is it…?"
"I like you."
"……!"
Ellie's face turned red.
This girl, acting all shy.
I smiled at that face and gently undid the buttons on her chest.
One, two.
Soon, her pure white and bountiful cleavage was revealed.
"……."
"Ah, Ares…."
Something far more amazing than I had imagined existed there.
Aah, the Peach Blossom Spring exists.
This is my One Piece.
Thump, thump, thump!!!
"Ellie…!"
"Ares…!"
Just then, NightRat stealthily came into the corner of my vision.
"But I didn't say you wouldn't die."
"Eh…?"
Shank!
"Keoheok…!"
Ellie stabbed something into my neck.
Huh? What's this?
It was a pen.
The pen for writing in the diary.
At that, I looked at Ellie in a panic.
"I love you too, Ares♡"
"E-kehuk, llie…."
"I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you♡"
Flop!
Squish!
I laid my head on the Peach Blossom Spring, bled, and collapsed.
And Ellie gently whispered into my ear.
"…I'll chop you up small and carry you in my pocket always."
"I told you to be careful;;."
"You said it was a dream…, you son of a, bitch…."
"I'm a rat."

Couldn't I at least have done it and then died??? Fuck, for real;;;

[NightRat: I just stated the facts]
ㄴ[Ares: …….]
ㄴ[StudentCouncilTerrorist: This bastard can't even get his wish fulfilled in his dreams lolololol]
ㄴ[Hikikomori: At this point, I kind of feel sorry for him…, how much must he want to do it….]
ㄴ[LunchboxCollector: I understand that feeling well, yanderes are hot.]
"Aigoo…, what kind of a situation is this, really…."
I wouldn't have felt so wronged if I had at least kissed her before waking up.
But in the end, I just unbuttoned Ellie's clothes and got stabbed in the neck and died.
"……By the way."
I looked at the diary in my hand.
The future diary that had been predicting my death until just two days ago.
The diary, which was both a ghost story and the anomaly itself, had turned into an ordinary diary after I defeated the mother anomaly.
No matter what I wrote, it no longer disappeared or changed the diary's contents.
It was an ordinary diary.
'Should I throw it away…?'
I thought about it for a moment, then put it back on the bookshelf.
Right, if it's just a diary, let's keep it.
After all, it was Ellie's secret diary.
There was something about a female student's secret diary that was exciting in itself.

Title: But does this mean Ellie is an anomaly?
[Photo]
The diary is oozing with suspicion
Is this a confirmed anomaly??
[Comments]
[LunchboxCollector: Isn't that just an obsessive girl??]
[StudentCouncilTerrorist: Suspicion isn't that kind of feeling, haven't you felt Lana?]
ㄴ[Ares: Ah, I know the difference all too well;;]
ㄴ[StudentCouncilTerrorist: But the girl's state isn't normal, so don't let your guard down]
According to the gallery members, it wasn't certain yet whether Ellie was an anomaly.
Meaning, she could just be a girl with a strong obsession.
'In that case, it would be better to spend more time with her.'
I recalled the thrilling and ecstatic scenery I had seen at the beginning of my dream just a moment ago.
What if Ellie was human?
That dream could become a reality.
That I would be able to unbutton all of the buttons on Ellie's clothes that I had been unbuttoning.
"Ooooh…."
I left the dormitory with a fluttering heart.
And I waited for a moment in front of the dormitory.
Female students passed by the boys' dormitory one by one.
Because the boys' dormitory was closer to the academy than the girls' dormitory.
'Levin and Lana have probably already gone, right…?'
I came out a little later than usual today.
So Levin and Lana, who I usually went to school with, must have already headed for the academy.
And just then.
"Ah, aah, A-Ares…?"
"Oh, Ellie."
"G-good morning…."
"Yeah, you're out early today?"
"Yeah…."
Ellie blushed when she saw me, then came up next to me, her platinum-blonde hair swaying.
The sweet scent I had smelled in my dream tickled my nose.
I naturally started walking towards the academy, and Ellie also walked next to me.
'She seems like an ordinary girl….'
For now, Ellie's reaction was that of a shy girl who had run into her crush.
I couldn't possibly think of her as an anomaly.
No, beyond being an anomaly, rather….

Title: Ellie is so fucking cute…
It's cute how she comes running as soon as she sees me
It's cute how she gets flustered and blushes when we make eye contact
It's cute how she subtly scoots closer to my side…
Fuck, this is so painful
Why is this a world of anomalies??? I feel so fucking wronged

[You lucky bastard, why only you, why only you, why only you….]
ㄴ[Ares: You would have done it too]
ㄴ[What bullshit…, there was no nympho like Lana or obsessive girl like Ellie ㅠㅠㅠㅠ]
[Just doing it and dying isn't a bad option lolol]
ㄴ[Ares: Speaking from experience??]
ㄴ[It was a happy death in its own way…]
ㄴ[NightRat: No, this bastard really looks like he's going to do it and die, so don't tempt him;;;]
"What did you do over the weekend?"
"Umm, I ate with a friend…, and bought a book and read it. …What about you, Ares?"
"I was just in the dormitory the whole weekend."
"Just in the dormitory? …Hehe, I see."
Huh? Why does she like that?
Ellie smiled shyly at the story of me being in the dormitory.
'By the way, to check Ellie's suspicion points, it would be better to spend more time with her, right.'
If so….
"Hey, Ellie. Do you want to eat lunch with me today too?"
"……Uh, uh uh? Really?"
"Is that okay?"
"I-I'd love to!"
"Then let's eat together."
"Yeah…!"
Let's eat together like this, and later, let's go on a date on the weekend.
Then I'll probably be able to figure something out.
'Ah…, if this was an ordinary rom-com school story….'
Then I would have just asked her out on a date without any of these worries and finished everything in one day.
…This place really was hell.
And just then.
"A~res♡"
Thump!
"Oof, …L-Lana?"
"……."
"Hehe, why are you so surprised? Oh my, hi Ellie? You were here?"
Lana suddenly appeared from behind me and clung to my arm.
The familiar squishy morning greeting.
But there was something different from usual, and that was the presence of Ellie.
'Hiiik…!'

[RedNightSky: Wow lolololol, a murder is about to happen]
ㄴ[Ares: No, I ran into Lana on the way to school, and her eyes immediately turned like that;;;]
ㄴ[RedNightSky: That's a death flag]
ㄴ[LunchboxCollector: Ares, he was neatly folded and put into Ellie's pocket….]
[Hikikomori: If she's human, she's scary in her own way;;]
ㄴ[fr lolol, with that, he's not going to graduate properly on graduation day]
[NightRat: Wow…, ssssp, good luck]
"Why are you clinging to me like that? Get off…."
"Why~, Ares and I are always like this? Right? Ares♡"
"Get off, didn't you hear me? Ares is uncomfortable…!"
"Oh my, the one who's uncomfortable is you, Ellie, isn't it? …By the way, Ellie, hasn't your personality changed somehow?"
Squish, squish!
The happy sensations felt from both sides.
In the midst of those sensations, I was trembling.
I felt like the human ham in an anomaly sandwich.
It was happy, but scary.
I wanted to stay like this, but I also wanted to escape.
And so, from the morning, I entered the academy sharing two kinds of heart-pounding feelings.
"Get off, get off, get off, youuu…! I said get off…!"
"I don't want to? Why should I? Oh? Come to think of it, Ellie, you took off your glasses too? Hehe, who are you trying to look good for?"
"Hiii…! I-it has nothing to do with you…!"
"……."
In the midst of the two's squabble, I somehow managed to reach the classroom.
Drrrk, thud!
"Oh my, hi Ares. Did you have a good weekend?"
"Ah, Levin…!"
As I entered the classroom, Levin, with her pure white hair, red eyes, and rabbit-like appearance, smiled gently at me.
Aah, Levin….
Still, seeing Levin's face in the midst of this chaos made my heart feel at ease and cozy.
Her gentle smile was my salvation.
"By the way, Ares. You know, right?"
"Huh? What?"
"It starts today, right? Hehe, magic class."
"Ah."
And that comfortable and cozy salvation was once again plunged into the abyss in an instant.

Title: Emergency!! Super emergency!!!!!
I have magic class today…
Didn't you guys say this was super dangerous??
What do I do…???

Comments
[Hikikomori: Ooh, magic class ㄷㄷ]
[I died while taking magic class too hehe….]
[NightRat: It's dangerous, but it's also case by case]
ㄴ[NightRat: For now, be as careful as possible, you don't know what will happen]
ㄴ[Ares: Generally, what kind of…?]
ㄴ[NightRat: If you're really unlucky, you can get an instant death ending]
ㄴ[NightRat: But that's if you're really unlucky]
ㄴ[Ares: Ah, fuck;;; why do I feel like my luck is going to be super bad??]
ㄴ[ForGlory: Still, even though magic is more dangerous than swordsmanship, there are more things that are helpful]
ㄴ[NightRat: That's true. So since it's come to this, be super careful and try to learn well]
'Instant death ending….'
The gallery members said it nonchalantly, but for me, it was a story that I couldn't help but be nervous about.
After all, I wanted to live.
I wanted to find a real person among the cute bishoujos, graduate, and live happily ever after.
'For now, I guess there's no choice but to be careful….'
But what classes were the other two taking?
Curious, I immediately asked the two of them.
"By the way, Lana and Ellie, what did you choose between swordsmanship and magic?"
"I-I chose swordsmanship…."
Ellie chose swordsmanship.
Ellie and swordsmanship…, her body is small, so it's hard to imagine….
'Ares…, I'll chop you up small…!'
When I recalled the scene I saw in my dream this morning, it seemed strangely fitting.
And next was Lana.
"I chose magic, hehe, so we'll be taking class together, right? Ares♡"
"……."
Sssssssst!
As Lana smiled seductively and clung to me, the look in Ellie's eyes behind her changed to that of a psychopathic murderer.
The one who was definitely an anomaly was Lana, but….
Why did Ellie seem more dangerous….
'Anyway…, so the ones taking magic class with me are Levin and Lana, huh….'
It was a bit disappointing that Ellie wasn't with me.
But still, I was a little relieved that I could be with two people I could rely on.
Even though neither of them were human.
Anyway,
After that, we finished the morning meeting as usual and attended the morning classes.
"Aah…, no one else absent today either, right? Class president."
For reference, the homeroom teacher had returned as if nothing had happened.
Well, since the mother anomaly was changed to have never existed.
And so, after attending the morning classes.
"The book I read yesterday, it was, it was really fun…. Do you want to read it too, Ares?"
"Oh, sounds good. Lend it to me later. I'll definitely read it."
"Hehe…, yeah. I'll definitely lend it to you. Hee…."
I also had lunch with just Ellie on the 5th floor of the east stairs.
When she's alone with me, Ellie is a really cute, timid, big-breasted bishoujo….
Anyway,
And so, after the happy lunch time ended, during the afternoon class time.
The long-awaited magic class time arrived.
"Umm…."
"What what, Ares, why are you so nervous?"
"Hehe, you were looking forward to taking magic class, so are you nervous because you're so happy?"
On either side of me, who was waiting for class with a trembling heart.
Lana and Levin smiled cutely and spoke to me.
But even with the sweet voices of those two bishoujos, my heart did not calm down.
'What on earth could it be….'
If you mess up, it's instant death.
If you mess up, it's instant death.
Those words from NightRat kept echoing in my head.
And as I was waiting with a trembling heart.
The classroom dedicated to magic class.
Inside the classroom with a strange atmosphere, where the light was blocked by purple curtains.
Creeeak….
"Popopo, popopo…."
A large woman came in.

[Wow, tiddies]
[NightRat: The magic teachers are always a bit unique, but…, that one seems too much like that bastard's type]
ㄴ[Ares: How do you know my typeㅡㅡ]
ㄴ[NightRat: Is there a single idiot here who doesn't know your type;;]
[LunchboxCollector: Wow wow wow wow, teacher teacher!! I want to take magic class!!]
[StudentCouncilTerrorist: That's a threat to Ares in a different sense lolololol]
[ForGlory: …That one will eat you up. In various senses.]
"Popopo, …it's a pleasure to meet you. Little friends."
Jiggle~
'Wow…. So fucking big….'
When the magic teacher lightly crossed her arms under her chest, that huge thing shook softly.
And the magic teacher looked down at us seductively from her high vantage point and spoke in a mature voice.
"My name is Rapori. From today, let's learn magic diligently from me. …Popo."
Magic, …it might not be so bad.
