Since my Useless Working Sister and Other Troublemakers Became Magical Girls, I have no Choice but to Support Them.

Chapter 1-37: Magical Girl Shiny Hunter

Glaring at the sky, they chased after the Fear-Eater.

“Hey, Liner! Do you have any good ideas?!”

“I can’t think of any! Even with my legs, there are some things I can’t reach!”

“Well, legs are legs. They can’t beat wings.”

“It’s annoying. I’ll beat it.”

“Good luck!”

“You too, Saber!”

Such exchanges could be heard. They seemed to be in good spirits and got along well.

“Rafio! Can I fluff you? Of course, I can, thanks!”

“No, you can’t! Hey! Go home, it’s dangerous!”

“But it’s safer near Rafio than at home, right? You never know where that bird will attack!”

“…Hey, Yuuma. What’s with this kid? She seemed like she wasn’t listening, but she’s observing the situation calmly.”

While being hugged and petted by Tsumugi, Rafio spoke in a perplexed voice.

“That’s just how she is. When she jumped off the apartment building, she did it in a way that ensured she wouldn’t get hurt. She’s willing to risk her life for fluffiness, but she’s aware of her surroundings.”

She wouldn’t do anything reckless that would cause serious injury. That’s how Tsumugi lives.

“No way! I can’t accept that she was calm!”

“Hey Rafio! Is that bird a monster?!”

“It is! It’s dangerous, so stay back!”

“It’s flying, and it seems like Aina and Haruka can’t hit it. Alright! It’s my turn!”

“Your turn for what?”

“Rafio, you don’t have to hold back. If I become a magical girl, I think I can solve this!”

“I’m not avoiding you out of hesitation.”

“With three of us, we might be able to reach it if you throw me! So Rafio, make me a magical girl!”

“No way! I refuse! Absolutely not!”

Rafio’s heartfelt cry echoed as he tried to avoid dealing with Tsumugi. But…

“Give up. No matter how much you avoid it or choose someone else, Tsumugi will keep aiming for you.”

“Absolutely not!”

“Besides, we need a new magical girl right now. And it’s someone we know who wants to do it.”

Even I have reservations about having an elementary school student fight. But remembering Haruka’s resolve, I understand that the most important thing is the individual’s will.

It’s hard to gauge just how determined Tsumugi is, though.

“Ugh… Fluffy magic… World peace… Fluffy… Peace… Fluffy… Peace… Peace! Argh! Hey you! If you become a magical girl, fight seriously!”

“I understand! It’s for Rafio, after all! I’m always serious!”

“I can’t trust that!”

I took a blue jewel out of Rafio’s bag and handed it to Tsumugi.

“Hold this and shout the words that come to mind. That’s how you transform.”

“Okay!”

Tsumugi took it without hesitation and did as instructed. It didn’t take long.

“Destruction! Shiny Hunter!”

“Destruction?! Did she just say destruction?!”

“She did.”

In front of a trembling Rafio and my calm self, Tsumugi’s body was enveloped in light.

The blue magical girl soon appeared. Like previous magical girls, she wore a short skirt. The design was less revealing; her midriff was covered, and her chest wasn’t exposed. She wore a sleeveless outfit with a small hat tilted on her head.

She also carried a large bow on her back, which gradually began to shine as it gathered sunlight.

“A precise hunter that pierces the darkness! Magical Girl Shiny Hunter!”

This was fortuitous. The new magical girl possessed long-range attack capabilities.

“Oh, so this is a magical girl.”

Hunter looked at her outfit, then shyly wiggled her feet as she glanced at the skirt. Tsumugi usually wore shorts, so she might not be comfortable in a skirt.

“Rafio, did you design this outfit? You wanted me to wear a skirt. …Pervert.”

“I didn’t design it with you in mind at all!”

He didn’t deny setting up the outfit.

“More importantly, use the bow on your back! You can shoot arrows, right?”

“Yeah! I’ll give it a try! Fluffy creature! I won’t forgive you for doing bad things, even if you’re fluffy!”

Hunter took the bow from her back and aimed at the retreating Fia-Eater. She pulled the string without nocking an arrow, and a radiant arrow formed. She released it.

Despite the considerable distance, the arrow accurately struck the base of the crow’s wing.

“Impressive. Tsumugi doesn’t have any archery experience, does she?”

“She became a magical girl, so she gained the sense for it. Even an amateur can handle a bow.”

As he explained, Rafio subtly edged away from Hunter. His voice trembled slightly.

“What a menace. She’s a hunter… A demon hunter of fluff…”

He seemed to feel the fear of being preyed upon. I couldn’t understand that fear at all.

As for the Fia-Eater, it tried to keep flying with its uninjured wing, but Hunter’s second arrow brought it down.

While she could hit her target reliably, she hadn’t destroyed the core, so it wasn’t dead yet. Even with precise attacks, it’s not easy to kill if you don’t know the core’s location inside its body.

“Rafio, let’s go. Hunter, you get on too.”

“Hey, Yuuma, are you serious? Letting her ride me? No way, the magical girl should run herself!”

“Thanks, Rafio! Let’s go!”

“Listen to me!”

“Rafio, hurry up.”

“Oh, fine! Hold on tight!”

“Yay! So fast!”

Hunter joyfully rode in front of me.
