Magical Girl of Chaos: Magical Rampage

Sigh~…

Flying slowly towards Mexico while letting out a sigh.

I could use the [Gate], but I just felt like flying for a while. It’s been a while.

Anyway, the reason I’m sighing is because of the stupid war breaking out due to cartels fighting each other, superhumans, and monsters caused by hidden medals.

“…Even flying like this feels quick these days.”

“You’ve gotten way too fast!”

“Yeah, I guess.”

Well, now that I’ve arrived in Mexico… time to clean up these stupid cartel guys.

Seriously, how many medals did they scatter around?

And somehow, they’re all using magic stones to avoid medal detection…

And why are these guys all gangsters or something?

Well, let’s start cleaning up first.

Sigh… “I didn’t become a magical girl to kill people…”

“Stay strong!”

“Do I look strong to you?”

I spread a physical barrier to prevent them from escaping, then proceed to wipe out the cartel members.

First, I take out the monsters, then the superhumans.

Finally, the regular cartel guys who hid the medals and caused this mess.

Some of them are firing weapons stuffed with magic stones like guns, while others are crying and begging for mercy.

But I have no mercy.

If they’ve caused trouble, they’re all getting executed.

No second thoughts.

“Can’t we just have someone else handle this?”

“But Rampage, you’re the only magical girl who’s always ready to deploy and clean things up neatly!”

“……”

True, to handle this level of chaos without variables, I’d need at least a Third Ability bloom.

There are even Great King-Class and Emperor-Class mixed in here.

And most magical girls have other jobs or lives outside of this… so I guess that’s why they always call me.

“…But this is a complete waste of time for me. If Great King-Class or Emperor-Class enemies showed up in droves, it’d help boost my magic reserves, but that’s not always the case…”

“But there’s no other suitable magical girl!”

“Yeah, I know. That’s why I’m doing this.”

I should start thinking about Pretty Heart’s birthday gift, but if things like this keep happening, it’s going to get annoying.

Still, the cleanup is almost done, so I’ll go back and buy the gift in advance.

…Honestly, I have no idea what to get her.

What do girls even like as gifts?

Pretty Heart comes from a wealthy family, has her own strong fashion and makeup preferences, and has great taste, so it’s hard to think of something…

Hmm… maybe accessories?

Accessories as gifts have meaning because they’re given by someone else, so a custom-made diamond necklace would probably make her happy.

“Yep, diamonds are the way to go.”

“Diamonds?”

“Colorless, transparent, and sparkly—they’re really pretty.”

“Hmm~… How about a gemstone necklace that matches Rampage’s colors?!”

“Oh, that’s not a bad idea. Anyway, the cleanup’s done, so handle the rest yourselves.”

“Got it!”

Then… a colored diamond, maybe a purple one?

Having it custom-made into a sleek heart shape would be nice.

I’ll just find a craftsman in Europe or America to make it.

…I’ll have Chubby look for one.

It’d take me forever to find someone.

“Hey, Chubby. Find me a jewelry craftsman in Europe or America. I need something custom-made.”

“Got it!”

Chubby will handle that, so I’ll just add some anti-destruction magic to the finished product.

No need to worry about scratches or damage since it’s so expensive.

But it’s a bit annoying to have to weave a barrier specifically for its shape and embed it as a magic circle.

Maybe I should learn from the Fairy Queen…?

“Cleanup’s done!”

“Good. I’m heading to the Fairy Queen.”

“Roger!”

Alright, I need to learn barrier attachment and magic circle engraving from the Fairy Queen.

Then I’ll open a [Gate] straight to the Fairy Realm.

Last time I went through the Global Zone, I got into some trouble, so this time I’ll quietly go through the Korean Zone.

Getting surrounded like that again would be… tiring.

Anyway, after arriving in the Fairy Realm via the [Gate], I went straight to the Fairy Queen.

When I opened the door, I saw the Fairy Queen slumped over her desk.

She’s usually the “Lazy Queen,” so why is she handling official duties this time…?

Wait, why did she collapse while doing paperwork?

“Hey, Fairy Queen. What are you doing?”

“Ah~… Rampage, you’re here? Yawn~ Just wait a moment~.”

“What’s going on… You’re not done yet?”

“I’m done~. Just exhausted~…”

“Ah, I see…”

I thought she fell asleep in the middle of it, but she actually finished…?

Well, she’s awake now, so it’s fine.

“Anyway, I have a gift for Nari, and I want to add anti-destruction protection. It’s expensive, so I can’t risk even a scratch.”

“Then you’ll need to weave a physical barrier~.”

“Right, so how do I weave a dense barrier to fit the necklace’s shape?”

“Hmm~… Wouldn’t it be better to engrave a self-repairing magic circle~?”

“Self-repairing?”

“Yes~. Since it’s something worn around the neck, it’s unlikely to get scratched or broken, and even if it’s destroyed by a magic attack, it’ll return to its original state~.”

“Ah~… That’s a good idea.”

Then instead of weaving a dense barrier, I can just engrave that.

…But how do I create a magic circle?

Come to think of it, I don’t know the most important part.

“How do I make a magic circle?”

“Hmm~… Can you distinguish mana particles~?”

“Mana particles? …Yeah, I can. I’ve trained so much in control and manipulation that I can distinguish them even with my eyes. I’ve never messed with them, though.”

“Mana particles interact with the bonds of elements~. They don’t alter the inherent properties of existing elements, so they won’t suddenly turn into a different substance~.”

“Really? …Well, magical girls’ bodies are practically filled with mana particles, so it’s not that strange, right?”

“That’s right~.”

Self-repairing… That sounds good for an object.

So a magic circle is about adding mana particles to stabilize the bonds…

Anyway, I’ll learn that and engrave it into the finished product.

But what’s the deal with the self-repairing magic circle?

“So, how do I draw a self-repairing magic circle?”

“You draw it like this~. I’ll show you a sample, so you can practice~.”

“Oh… It’s not as complicated as I thought?”

“Right~? Since it’s just engraving an already developed spell, it doesn’t need to be overly complicated~. And just like how spaghetti code differs from optimized code, I always prioritize optimization~.”

“Ah~ I get it.”

I see… The overly complicated magic circles people usually think of are like spaghetti code, huh?

Optimization… Well, optimization is important.

Anyway, I’ll master this in no time.

“Rampage~! The order’s complete!”

“Really? Good job.”

Oh, they already placed the order?

Wait, did this guy fly all the way here just to tell me that?

You could’ve told me after I got home… You’re being unnecessarily diligent…

“Alright, I’ll head out now.”

“Okay~.”

Now, time to go home.

When I get home… Yeah, I’ll try making some cakes.

She eats a lot, so it’s fine if we make them and bring them over.

“Chubby. Let’s make some cakes.”

“Huh?!”

“It’s for Nari’s birthday, so I want to bring some cakes.”

“Got it! Let’s make them together!”

“Sure.”

It’s the first time I’m going this far for someone…

Anyway, do I just spread cream between the cake layers?

Then cover the outside with cream and use this small spatula to smooth it out neatly.

…Oh, this is working well.

“Rampage, you’re doing great for your first time!”

“Yeah, I guess.”

“This chocolate cream will harden in the fridge, so let’s stick these chocolates in before that!”

“Oh, you already prepared these? There’s even a ‘Happy Birthday Nari’ message.”

“Ahem! I prepared it in advance!”

“You’re quick. You should’ve been like this earlier.”

“Ah…”

Anyway, after making this in advance, we’ll chill it in the fridge, then store it in the Magic Pouch to slow down time as much as possible.

That way, when we take it out, it’ll still be perfectly chilled.

The cheesecake needs to age, so we’ll leave that for later… Well, Chubby can handle that since I don’t need to do anything.

“Big sis, what are you doing?”

“Making cakes.”

“…Cheesecake too?”

“That’s aging separately.”

“Ah, then can I have just one…”

“…I’m planning to make them regularly, so hold off for now.”

“Okay~.”

“…Mreow.”

This girl’s always after cheesecake…

She’s really obsessed with cheesecake.

“I’m back~!”

“You’re back?”

“Ooh! Cake!”

“It’s not yours, so don’t get any ideas.”

“Aw~.”

“It’s for my junior’s birthday, so don’t touch it.”

“Tch~.”

“What’s with the ‘tch’? You’re always running around eating everything, and now you’re complaining?”

“But Meriol’s cakes are different!”

“……”

This guy, making all sorts of excuses to eat as soon as he gets back from work…

Sigh, is he really that desperate for cake?

…Well, seeing it being made right in front of him must be tempting.

I’ll give him some after dinner as dessert.

“…But, big sis, what are you even doing?”

“What do you mean?”

“There’s something transparent and wavy… You’re cutting something with it?”

“Ah, this? It’s just… a magic blade. It moves as I think, so it’s perfect for multitasking.”

“……”

“Big sis. Dabin’s a bit weird, so let’s just move on.”

“…Yeah, let’s.”

Hey, you two, what’s with the looks?

I’m acting perfectly within normal limits.

If you’ve trained as much as I have, you should be able to do this.

It’d be embarrassing if I couldn’t do something like this after all that training…

“Alright, it’s done.”

“Good job!”

“By the way, when will the custom necklace be finished?”

“It should be done by Pretty Heart’s birthday!”

“Oh, that’s faster than I thought.”

I thought it’d take days, but it’s quicker than expected.

No need to worry now; I just have to wait.

That’s Pretty Heart’s birthday gift sorted!

Now, it’s time to practice the self-repairing magic circle.

I’ll pick some expendable items and keep breaking them to practice.

“Chubby. Bring me some things I can break for magic circle practice.”

“Got it!”

Alright, until the necklace is finished, it’s self-repairing magic circle practice time!
