Chapter Title: 30-Year-Old Magical Girl Finally Snaps!
-----------------------------------------------------------------
"Uwaaaah! Isiwoos! You damn bastard! Today, I'll finally put you down!"
Crackle!
The Power of Coolness stretched out like twisting branches in every direction. Anything it touched instantly froze solid, hardening into ice.
It was overwhelmingly powerful no matter how many times I saw it. And that was White's ability enhancement combined with her magic!
Just a graze would turn my fragile body into an ice cracker without a second thought.
"They say you get slower as you age. Looks like it's true."
That was, if it could actually touch me.
That alone wasn't enough to take me down. Blue's magic was fast, sure, but my dynamic vision, enhanced by maki, could dismantle it easily enough.
"Hey! I'm still only thirty!"
"That's plenty old. Thinking thirty is young... did you lose your sense of shame along with your youth?"
"You cheeky little brat!"
It was a sudden thought, but needling her about her age really got under Blue's skin.
Did she really need to react that sensitively just because she was thirty?
'Maybe because she knows I'm a guy.'
Well, if a scrawny guy like me kept calling a thirty-year-old woman an "auntie," it'd piss anyone off big time.
Plus, every taunt let me land cards that piled on the damage, so no wonder she was fuming.
"Puhahaha! Slow attacks just like a thirty-year-old auntie!"
I pulled a card from my sleeve and smacked away Blue's flying kick as it arced toward me.
The maki-enhanced card surpassed steel in hardness, sending her kick bouncing back.
"Kuh!"
"They say old folks have bad joints... maybe you should stop trying kicks from now on?"
Toppling Blue with her stance all messed up was child's play. I flung a few more cards, embedding them straight into her body.
Splat! Her blue dress tore open, and the cards dug into her leg flesh.
True to her tough magical girl nature, Blue didn't even groan, but they sank deep enough to shatter her balance.
"Pathetic, pathetic!"
Shrrrrip! A flurry of cards hovering in the air shot toward Blue and buried into her.
White rushed in late, deploying her fog magic, but the cards' momentum alone scattered the mist.
"My magic?!"
My power, grown fat on Green and Blue's negative emotions, was no longer weak enough to be blocked by mere magic.
The cards pierced the fog and slammed into Blue's body.
"Guhk..."
This time, they hit vital spots. Neck and heart. No matter how resilient a magical girl was, taking hits there meant her transformation would unravel.
'This is about my limit.'
I could really feel how much stronger I'd gotten these past few days. The old me would've struggled against even her first transformation.
But now? I could handle Blue even with White and Black backing her up.
Of course, only because Yellow, Green, Red, and Pink weren't joining in... Still, a win was a win.
"D-Damn it..."
"Going down to just this? Pathetic, magical girl!"
With fatal wounds, her transformation finally broke. Blue, now in her civilian clothes, collapsed face-down onto the concrete.
"Taken out by something this weak..."
Blue glared up at me, her face twisted in fury.
Wasn't this obvious? She'd fought me half-assed, after all.
I decided to mock this pitiful magical girl. First, though, I didn't forget to sweep White and Black aside with a wave of cards.
"You foolish auntie magical girl Blue. Do you even know why you lost?"
"You used dirty tricks...!"
"Dirty tricks? You're just weak as hell!"
Squish!
I planted my foot on Blue's blue hair. Dirt from my white shoe soiled her fine strands.
Whether from being stepped on by a man or mocked by her longtime nemesis, Blue's face burned with humiliation.
"Ptooey."
I couldn't hold back. I spat right in her face. It splattered across her features.
"If I catch you... I'll rape you... rape you..."
Her magical girl rage had boiled over, stripping away even the barest pretense of justice.
She planned to violate me completely.
'Crazy bitch.'
If Blue learned Isiyul was me, it'd be quite the spectacle.
Finding out the reasonable guy she talked to was actually her mocking archenemy? Her fury would be indescribable!
"Y-You! You'll regret this..."
"Regret? Why would I fear a powerless magical girl face-down in the dirt?"
"...Glacier-like Power of Coolness, gather unto me. Power of Condensation to punish my foes! Awaken me!"
"Glacier-like Power of Coolness, gather unto me."
"Power of Condensation to punish my foes!"
"Awaken me!"
⟨ Second Transformation ⟩
Crack-cra-crackle!
The air suddenly froze with a sharp sound. The temperature plummeted around us.
And mana, which shouldn't have been there, swirled wildly around Blue.
'Second Transformation!'
The one way a mana-drained magical girl could recharge at high speed...
I had no idea why she'd held it back until now, but Blue had finally unleashed her Second Transformation.
"You know why we didn't go Second Transformation sooner?"
"?"
"We're too strong. Just transforming could damage the surroundings, so we avoid it if possible. But you... you pissed me off."
I urgently leaped back, opting for an emergency evade. She hadn't finished transforming yet, but the backlash alone froze my ankles.
'What the hell!'
A mere transformation harming me? Impossible!
"Hehe, I've decided. I won't kill you. I'll freeze and shatter your wrists and ankles, then display you in my house. You'll live getting raped by me in bed every day. By the thirty-something magical girl you despise so much!"
"I don't really despise..."
"Shut up! Women age like fine wine!"
Whoosh!
With her Second Transformation complete, Blue rose, scattering ice shards everywhere.
Slow movements... but the surroundings froze in an instant.
'Feels like minus twenty degrees... She controls temperature too? I thought only Red could pull that off.'
Red's Power of Passion created heat hot enough to boil steel plates.
I hadn't realized Blue's Power of Coolness was this potent... Guess magical girls train too.
"You know no Imperial soldier survives seeing this power, right? It's over, Isiwoos! You and the Empire's ambitions end here!"
"No choice. A head-on fight's too tough."
Could I win if we fought?
No, not yet. Blue's power was on par with Red's.
And with White and Black's support? I'd lose for sure.
So I'd have to use my trump card too.
"Turning your body into cards won't help—I'll freeze you first!"
"Teleport."
"...What?"
"You think I'd only prepare one escape method, Blue?"
A magic that stabbed a card into a pre-set location and warped me there.
Like card transformation, I'd been saving it... but after seeing her Second Transformation's power, I didn't want to risk getting wrecked by holding back.
"You... you're trying to run away now...?"
"Bingo."
"Hey!!!! You coward—"
Her words cut off there.
A few seconds later, I'd teleported far away. Naturally, I couldn't hear Blue anymore.
"Head-on fights are off the table now."
It was an expensive but cheap lesson.
"...Looks like snow's coming."
That day, a brutal cold snap hit the whole city. But holed up in warm Green's house, it was no issue for me.
"Ah! Aah! Ahh, nooo..."
"Hoo, hoo! Isiyul... Isiyul! Nngh! You're so good!"
The bed creaked and shook. After finishing work, I was paying rent to Green with my body again today.
'Damn... I hate how dizzy my head gets!'
It wasn't forced moaning. As Green milked me, these were genuine cries leaking out.
Every time her pussy gripped and stroked my cock, my whole body tingled with electricity. Sometimes, no sound came out at all.
How many thrusts? The urge to cum welled up, and soon...
"Ngh!"
Splurt-splurt-splurt! I came hard. Post-orgasm exhaustion washed over me.
Thankfully, the condom kept my semen from going inside her...
"You're so fucking hot today, Isiyul?"
"Ahit..."
"Hmm, come to think of it, it's almost Christmas. Won't be spending it solo this year..."
Green let out her signature creepy chuckle, thrilled she wouldn't be alone anymore.
"Isiyul. Sis wants a Christmas event, wanna do it?"
"Event...?"
"Yeah, an event. I'll cover all the date costs."
Acting generous now, as always. With no right to refuse, I nodded quietly.
"For real? No take-backs!"
"What's it even gonna be...?"
"Nothing big. Just wear this."
Green tapped her phone and showed me the screen.
A shopping site was open. Curious, I looked—and it was selling something bizarre.
'Santa Boy?'
This world's equivalent of a Santa girl, I guess...
Gender-reversed sexual knowledge always surprised me.
"Wear this and fuck me raw. Sound good?"
Green murmured creepily.
