Chapter 196 - Encountering Madoka Again

A silver-haired handsome boy in casual clothes and a beautiful girl in a light yellow dress strolled side by side along the commercial street.

Mami hasn't experienced this feeling in a long while. Going out casually with friends and purely enjoying the moment. No witches, no infighting amongst Magical Girls- just a simple stroll.

"Hmhmhm~"

She is in such a good mood that she can't help but hum a cheerful tune along the way.

"Mami, aren't you going to eat too?"

Adam asked the girl skipping lightly ahead of him as he held the bag of Churros he had just bought from a roadside vendor. 

On the edge of his mouth hung a thin Churro that had already been half eaten. Despite having food in his mouth, he could still converse normally with her.

"No, I don't want to." She shook her head frantically, an almost depressed look coloring her face. "I think I've gained a little weight recently, so I can't eat these. They are too high in calories and sugar."

The blond Magical Girl then looked down at her belly in melancholy.

It is flat and smooth. It also looks soft, without any signs of muscle.

"Oh? But I think you have a very good figure."

Adam looked her up and down, scrutinizing her 'full' figure without any shame whatsoever.

Faced with his somewhat presumptuous gaze, Mami playfully slapped his shoulder.

"You big pervert!"

She pouted. However, there was no anger or fury on her face.

"It's because you're so cute, Mami. I can't hold back."

The silver-haired boy clasped his hands together, earnestly looking at her with deliberately widened eyes.

"Hmph~" The cute Magical Girl harrumphed, the pout still on her face. "Don't think I'll forgive you just because of this. I- um?!"

Just as Mami was about to say something, she suddenly froze.

She snapped her head towards a certain direction, seemingly sensing something.

"It's a Witch."

Adam spoke up and reminded her only now.

Actually, he had sensed this Witch a long time ago. But since he is a weakling in Mami's eyes, and since he's doing the Chinese Xianxia classic, he had to remind her only now.

"Really…" The blonde's face fell, her expression souring. "Why did an enemy have to show up at this time?"

With her rare good mood ruined, Mami decided to teach this Witch a lesson that it/she will never forget!

..

.

The two promptly arrived close to the area where the Witch had been felt.

With a bright flash of light, Mami's clothes instantly changed.

A white blouse with a yellow placket-like line replaced her yellow dress. Downwards, white detach sleeves, a deep brown corset with white trims, and brown fasteners with a white ribbon on her waist appeared with a dull yellow ruffled skirt with a deep brown trim.

On top of her golden hair, a brown beret-like hat with white fur coming out of it was placed atop it.

On her legs appeared puce leggings with thin, vertical stripes and matching calf-high socks with white brims and dull yellow shoes.

On her hands, deep brown fingerless gloves. One her shoulders, brown bands. Around her neck, a yellow ribbon was tied. Her outfit resembles a rifleman's.

She quickly transformed into her outfit that resembled a rifleman's and rushed inside the Witch's barrier.

"Just wait for me outside, I'll take care of it quickly!"

She waved at him as she sped towards the barrier.

The blond Magical Girl feared for his safety. In her eyes, he is untrained and unfamiliar with the ways of the Witches. So, she left him outside and ventured into the barrier by herself.

Adam tilted his head, sensing the Witch's power. 

It is weak. Mami can handle it.

It's fortunate. Normally, it would be unfortunate since he wouldn't be able to play the 'Hero saves the beauty' on Mami, but since he has chosen this path- it's better for him.

"Hm…?

The silver-haired paused lightly.

In that barrier, he sensed two familiar presences.

"Heh, are those two really that unlucky?"

Even if those two are potentially in danger, Adam has determined that Mami can easily resolve the issue. 

So he refrained from taking any action.

Instead, he put his hands behind his back, sinking into his own mind and simulating countless possibilities for the 'plan' as he patiently waited for the blond sugar Mommy to come back.

..

.

"Madoka! Over here!"

Miki Sayaka pulled Madoka along, running forward swiftly and dodging spears shot from behind.

"Sayaka, we need to hold on for a little longer! Someone will come to save us!"

Madoka shouted, her body trembling from exertion.

With her poor stamina, she struggled to keep up with Sayaka's pace. The only reason she hasn't died is because her friend is pulling her along.

However, having already experienced a similar incident once, she didn't panic. 

Instead, she hoped that Adam would once again appear suddenly like a hero- just like last time.

"!"

On the horizon, the vague outline of a person appeared.

Madoka's pinkish eyes shone, and she broke into a smile-

But instead of Adam, she was greeted by the clear figure of a similarly aged girl dressed in a gorgeous magical girl outfit.

The blond girl flew freely through the air, watching the two girls running away. 

With a wave of her hand, two yellow ribbons manifested around her. The extended downwards, wrapping themselves around the two civilians' waists, and retracted. 

The ribbons raised them at her level, suspending them in the air.

The sudden feeling of floating mid-air startled both Madoka and Sayaka.

Mami ignored them for the time being. Instead, she focused her attention on the eight-eyed, eight-armed Witch below.

She pointed at the Witch in a finger-gun-like gesture. Countless flintlock muskets appeared behind her, all aimed squarely at the Witch.

"Well then…Goodbye."

After a moment's thought, the blond magical girl didn't snap her fingers.

Instead, she cocked up her finger gun and-

"Bang!"

This was the delicate voice of Mami Tomoe. And the next second-

Bang

Bang

Bang

The sound of guns firing echoed throughout the Witch's barrier.

And instantly, the Witch herself was pierced by countless flintlock bullets. In her grotesque body appeared countless holes, with no blood dripping.

Thud.

The Witch lifelessly dropped to the ground. There was absolutely no suspense.

"Wow... Amazing…!"

Sayaka's surprised exclamation followed soon after.

The middle school girl's mouth was wide open, her eyes shining with admiration as she looked at the similarly aged Mami in front of her.

"..."

Having witnessed Adam's even more awe-inspiring power, Madoka was not intimidated or astonished by this scene.

Instead, as the magical girl lowered them back to the ground, she stepped forward and asked:

"Excuse me, who are you...?"

Her pink eyes gazed at the magical girl outfit on the girl.

"Judging from your school uniforms, you must be students at Mitakihara Middle School, right?" 

The super magical girl didn't immediately answer her question. Instead, she looked at their uniforms and came to a conclusion.

"Second year students?" She narrowed her golden eyes, looking more closely. Then she blinked, "Oh, right, let me introduce myself: My name is Tomoe Mami, and I'm a third-year student at Mitakihara Middle School."

"Eh? So it's a senpai?!"

Sayaka's eyes widened.

..

.

Adam, who was still outside, didn't have to wait long. 

"Ne, senpai, how did you do that!? Are you a superhero? A magical girl? And what were these monsters?"

Soon after, the Witch's barrier collapsed, and Mami reappeared with a casual expression.

However, this time, she was being followed by two girls.

The blue-haired one was lightly jumping as she walked forward, her eyes shining as she looked towards the blond girl who rescued them.

"Yo!"

The silver-haired boy waved at the pink-haired girl who was following behind Mami

"Madoka, we meet again."

Madoka's head snapped towards his direction, and upon seeing him, her pink eyes lit up.

"Adam!"

The pinkette exclaimed in surprise and happiness. She hadn't expected to see Adam here!

Although she had fantasies of being rescued by her, it was entirely unexpected to be rescued by a magical girl and then find him standing out here.

"Huh? Adam, do you know this child?"

Mami looked between Madoka and the silver-haired boy with surprise in her eyes. 

For the person she casually saved to actually know Adam….What a coincidence!

"...What on earth is going on?

The voice of the 3rd girl echoed throughout this place.

Sayaka finally calmed down from her excitement. 

The adrenaline of being in the air and the wonder of being rescued by a superpowered person disappeared. She, who was the only one out of the loop, is a little confused about what was going on.

"What was that monster just now?"

The blue-eyed girl gazed at Mami and Adam in a daze.

"That's a Witch- a 'monster' born from despair, and the embodiment of disaster."

Adam promptly answered her question, putting his hands in front of his chest.

The Magical Girl who saved the two girls cast a questioning look at him. With her golden brown eyes, she sent him a: 'Is it really okay to tell these things to people who weren't involved?'

 

But the silver-haired transmigrator simply gave her a reassuring look that calmed her down.

"Witch..."

Madoka muttered this word, chewing on it. The moment that word registered in her ears, she started feeling an intense sense of déjà vu.

"Speaking of witches…" Adam looked at the pinkette with a meaningful smile. "Madoka, this is the second time you've encountered a witch. You really have negative luck."

Although it seems like just a coincidence…Adam wonders if this is some kind of arrangement by Kyubey to lure in young Madoka to become a magical girl.

"Second time?!" 

Sayaka's head snapped towards Madoka

"Madoka, when did you encounter something like this?!" Her blue eyes widened, and she leaned forward. "Why didn't you tell me before?! Did you get hurt?"

The blue-haired girl eagerly pulled up Madoka's sleeve, wanting to closely examine her body for any injuries.

"It's nothing."

Madoka smiled helplessly at her friend's concern. But she felt warm inside her heart.

"It was when we went to the record store." The pinkette's face flushed as she recalled what happened. "Adam saved me."

Some things were obviously left unsaid.

"Phew, that's good."

Sayaka breathed a sigh of relief, wiping away the sweatdrop that formed on her forehead out of nervousness and fear.

"Tell me the next time something like this happens!!"

Instantly after, she spoke to Madoka in a deliberately fierce tone.

"I was just worried you'd make a fuss."

Madoka scratched her head bashfully.

Now that she is saying it out loud, it's very embarrassing!

"What a beautiful friendship."

As she watched the interaction between the two girls she had saved, Mami teased with a smile on her face.

However, deep in her golden brown eyes, there was a hint of envy.

"Yep."

At this moment, Adam deliberately moved a little closer to her.

Then, the silver-haired boy gently put a hand on her shoulder and winked at her with a smile.

Turning her head towards him, Mami instantly understood what he meant. Her smile widened, and her heart immediately warmed.

'Yes, I have friends too. I don't need to envy others!'

Her mind cheered. 

'As long as he's by my side, there's nothing to be afraid of!'

..

.

""Thank you so much, senpai!""

Madoka Kaname and Sayaka Miki bowed together in sync, thanking Mami Tomoe for saving them.

"It's nothing~"

The girl who is receiving these formal bows waved off the both of them with a stiff smile, indicating that it isn't anything special.

"No, senpai, we will definitely repay you!"

Sayaka clenched her fists, staring straight at her with determination ablaze in her eyes.

In response to this girl's determination, Mami simply smiled gently:

"Then I'll wait for you to repay me, Sayaka."

She cupped her hands below her belly elegantly, acknowledging this girl's determination.

….

After thanking them repeatedly, Madoka and Sayaka bid farewell to them and left.

The golden-haired girl lowered her waving hand and turned to look at Adam.

"Why did you tell them about Witches?"

It is only now, that they are alone, that Mami asked this question.

Ever since Adam revealed the existence of witches to these two school girls, this has been weighing on her mind ever since.

"Don't underestimate them." The silver-haired boy smiled casually. "They are very qualified."

Indeed, both Sayaka and Madoka are qualified to be magical girls- especially Madoka. She can be described as the patron goddess of all magical girls in the future.

"Qualified?"

Mami blinked in confusion.

"They have the qualifications to become magical girls."

At his words, her expression showed bewilderment.

She looked at the two girls' backs that had almost disappeared from the horizon, re-examining them.

"Ah? Really?" After finding nothing special, the blonde then stared at him with wide eyes in doubt. "You can see something like that?"

In her mind, only Kyubey can do something like this.

"They are both so cute, so they can definitely become magical girls!"

The boy put his hands on his hips, an earnest expression arising on his face.

After all, it's common sense. In fiction, when a character is attractive, they are most likely important.

Doubly so for Magical Girl fiction. Only pretty girls become Magical Girls!

"Ugh…" 

The golden-haired magical girl groaned at his logic.

"Really, is it fun to mess with me?"

Mami puffed her cheeks, looking at him with playful displeasure.

"Hehe."

In response, Adam merely chuckled.

Then, he extended his hand and reached out to poke her cheek.

"For example, you are very cute right now."

Sugar Mommy Mami's cheeks instantly turned red.
