The moment the little Magical Girl held the great wand, a three-pronged tornado appeared and littered the sky. The Diest, which was too large to count in a single breath, dwindled down in the blink of an eye.

Rabbitfoot could only watch in dismay.

The other Witches didn’t catch on, so the best she can do is to bait them. She did not think for a second that the magical girl she brought with her with that in mind would have such strength.

「Rabbitfoot-san! I’d like to ask about those fallen Diests.」

The girl’s voice reached Rabbitfoot, as the number of Bee-type Diests had been reduced and her voice could be heard.

(This shitty brat…!)

It was deeply humiliating to be dictated to by a mere Phase 2 Magical Girl, but it was also true that Rabbitfoot had accomplished a great deal while Rabbitfoot had been left out of the loop.

Of course, if she wanted to, Rabbitfoot could defeat a Diest of this magnitude, but it would take longer because she is not a Magical Girl suited for many vs. many.

When it comes to kicking out large numbers of small fish, there is no doubt that the girl’s ability is superior to Rabbitfoot’s.

Rabbitfoot looks down on others anyway, but she never misjudges their abilities because of it.

She keeps a lid on her angry inner mind and judges calmly. She says it’s okay to yell at someone only after the fight is over.

「Hah!? You’re a cheeky little brat to expect me to clean up after you! Let’s do this!」

Rabbitfoot kicks the Diest on the ground to vent her anger.

Most of the Diests have disappeared or crashed due to the girl’s activity, but there are a few that remain in the sky here and there.

Then it took the girl a few minutes to clear the sky of all Diests.

Rabbitfoot, who had caught the tornado at the edge of her vision while moving at high speed, realized that the end of the battle was near as it disappeared.

In fact, it did not take long to make all the Diests disappear from then on.

(Huhum, that was an unexpected bargain. I’d like to get her in before they figure it out.)

The anger at the girl’s instruction to her for going on a rampage had been completely cleared away. On the contrary, she is so concerned that other witches will take away her talent that will eventually lead her to become a witch, that she even considers recruiting them in a gentle way, which is unusual for Rabbitfoot.

However, when the battle was over and Rabbitfoot searched the area, she could find no sign of the girl.

「That girl…! She returned first!!」

When Rabbitfoot returned to the magic bureau after defeating the Diest and grumpily kicked open the blank door, she found nine girls enjoying a tea party to their heart’s content.

Some look surprised at the roughly opened door, while others sip their tea without paying attention.

「Haah? Why are there so many of you? The tea party (laughs) isn’t over yet.」

This room is a special one that only witches are allowed to enter, and a tea party called a meeting is held once a month.

It was not compulsory to participate, but it was considered desirable to do so, and all the witches who usually frequent the room, as well as those who basically do not come by this room, except one, gather there.

However, if Rabbitfoot remembered correctly, today was not supposed to be the day of the tea party.

It was still understandable, since two of the gathered menus had been called by her. Of the remaining seven, two of them usually use this room a lot, which is understandable.

She didn’t understand the motive of the other 5. Ice Witch : Permafrost. Pirate Witch : Captain Treasure. Dragon Witch : Dragon Call. Poisonous Insect Witch : Discause. Gravity Witch : Red Ball.

「Crosseau-san called me here!」

「She said there’s something you should hear if you can.」

「If you say so, I can’t say no.」

「…」

「By the way~ Maybe that’s why Rabbit-chan came here.」

Ignoring the smirking Red Ball, Rabbitfoot turns her attention to the Thread witch, Wigs Crosseau

Rabbitfoot had received no such call.

「I heard that Rabbitfoot-san was out on a quota, so I did not want to disturb her and refrained from contacting her. We knew you were coming here either way.」

Quietly setting down her teacup, Wigs Crosseau answered while turning her gaze to the Shark Witch, Bullshark, and the Magnetic Witch, Ex-Magna.

It was a well-known fact that Rabbitfoot would always go with one of the two of them when they went to defeat the Marquis Class or above. Even on the very rare occasions when she goes alone, she always have several local Phase 2 Magical Girls on support.

Whenever she go alone, which is usually when the two of them are unavailable due to some other reason, Rabbitfoot always complains about it when she returns home after the defeat. Calling them both into this room. Then it was only natural that the Witch, a regular, would see the scene.

「Ahahah!! You’re still being chaperoned~ You are a scaredy-cat, aren’t you~?」

「Shaddup! It’s proud fools like you who get caught flat-footed!!」

「A loser howling is disgraceful. Try woofing instead.」

「Red Ball-chan?」

Just before Rabbitfoot snapped silently, the Octopus witch, Doppelganger, interrupted Red Ball.

「Tch, so boring~」

「Now then, please go calm yourself at your seat, Red Ball-san.」

「Tch, I get it.」

For Rabbitfoot, Wigs Crosseau and Doppelganger are definitely witches of a higher rank. More than once or twice, she have thought about beating up Red Ball that have been coming at her so hard. But every time she did, she was interrupted by the two of them.

Those two, especially Wig Crosseau, were opponents that had to be settled eventually, but Rabbitfoot does not have that much power yet.

(That shitty brat, you’ll see…)

Although it was hard for Rabbitfoot to admit, Red Ball outperformed her in terms of pure combat power alone. But Rabbitfoot believes that time will tell.

The little bastard has already reached full liberation, and she was still in limited liberation for now. She had an unfounded confidence that if they were in the same ring, she would definitely be stronger than her.

With the flames of anger in her heart, Rabbitfoot sat on a chair with the number 10 engraved on it.

Wig Crosseau looks at one of the girls for confirmation. The girl gave a small nod in silence.

「Let’s move on to the main topic.」

At Wigs Crosseau words, everyone who had been speaking thoughtfully closed their mouths.

「I’d like to keep this between us, as no official notification has been issued.」

The expressions on the faces of the Witches, who had seemed to have little interest in the subject, turned serious as they wondered if it was really necessary to make such a big deal out of it.

「The birth of a new witch has been confirmed.」
