Chapter 267: Magical Girl Magical?Bery Reincarnation+N

***Chapter 267 Magical Girl Magical?Bery Reincarnation+N***

A/N: A spin-off of a Maiden’s Unwanted Hero Epic, Magical Girl Magical Berry Reincarnation+N, does not begin!

??The wharf of the harbor.

In a magical dress resembling elegant armor, the skirt was tattered.

However, there was still power in Magical Selene's (16) eyes??‘I need to crush her as soon as possible’, so the bull-headed demon Nakirus held two great axes in hand, poured his fierce gaze with even more power.

Recently, Magical Selene had become the main character of Magical Alberan.

Although it was still not as good as Magical Bery, its growth was impressive.

‘I needed to get rid of this little girl before she became the second Magical Bery.’

“Stop right there!…Ojou-sama, please, behind me.”

"...You're late, Berry."

But perhaps, it was too difficult.

Magical Bery (30), the strongest magical girl wearing a frilly pink Gothic Lolita costume, appeared with a pink light to protect Magical Selene.

"You've appeared, Magical Berry."

"...That's a familiar face. Were you resurrected too, Nakirus?"

Except for her longer hair, she looked exactly the same as she did 15 years ago??even though she should already be in her 30s.

However, the way she wore the painful cringe Gothic Lolita maid's magical dress so dignifiedly and naturally gave him a sense of her experience as a magical girl.

Most magical girls lose their pure hearts and ‘Twinkle?Heart’ as they age due to shame, and they lose their power as magical girls, yet Magical Bery is an eternal magical girl.

Even now in her thirties, she remained a monster who held onto her ‘Twinkle?Heart’ unchanged from her days as Magical Bery (14), exuding both the radiance of her youthful heart and the dignity of her thirties.

The saying no gaps to take advantage of, was precisely this.

“I heard that you had been a magical girl for over ten years now but. Normally, I would have attacked your spirit, but...that won’t work on you.

A magical girl's power would be disturbed by their own shame.

It’s not like Magical girls such as Magical ?? (23) does not exist, but many people over the age of 20 would feel resistant to wear magical dresses.

Verbal attacks were effective against such opponents.

They were magical girls who had doubts about their identity as a ‘girl’ and that clouded their ‘Twinkle?Heart.''

However, Magical Berry's dignified appearance shows that she had nothing to be ashamed of.

She has an extremely childlike face.

By making full use of her child-like appearance, she erased any sense of discomfort.

Even if he were to scorn her, saying, ‘It's a forceful cosplay’, it would have little effect.

??If you don't take into account her age, which around 30s, it really suited her.

Magic power that distorts even space and time.

That was the magical girl named Magical Berry.

"...I'll you win this time, Magical Bery."

"Fufu, try it...Ojou-sama, please go to Krische-sama."

“Y-yes...”

As the wind howled around them, the lifeless night pier was wrapped in fantastical sight.

Countless hearts danced wildly, and a huge pink kitchen rises up around it.

??Grand Magical Space, the Magical Maid Kitchen.

"If it's now, I’ll accept your surrender... Otherwise, you, the cow, will become ground meat and hamburgers like last time...!"

"Uuh, itts huart..."

"...Every single time, do you have a grudge against me"

Selene sighed as she watched the bull-headed demon Nakirus being chopped up with a giant knife and peeler, and uses her fingers to pinch Kreschenta’s, the insect queen who seems to have been plotting the parts.

She complains that she has too many overwhelming victories and it's not interesting, and that the screen rating didn’t look good, so lately she had been trying to made Selene fight alone against strong enemies for some reason to create a needless crisis.

This insects were a total nuisance.

As Selene chased away the camera-wielding fairies flying around her feet with magical spray, she sighed once more and regretted becoming a magical girl as she went behind the container to rest.

There was a girl with silver hair and a beautiful dress.

"Ah, uh...what are you doing, Krische?"

“Ah, Selene.”

??And what Krische was feeding while crouching down was a small mass of tentacles the size of a handball.

It could be said that it was a creature made of sea urchin spines that turned into tentacles, but the numerous purple tentacles were wriggling and carrying the cookie that Krische had given it to what seemed to be the mouth.

"Look, this child is eating cookies. Ehehe, it’s happy."

The way its whole body twist every time it took a bite of a cookie was beyond disgusting, it was blasphemous.

Selene stiffens at the sight, but Krische didn’t mind it and gives it a cookie and shows a beautiful smile.

"Nyururun what a glutton. I guess it was hungry..."

"K-Krische, Nyururun is...?"

"This is the child's name. Krische named it earlier. It's kind of squishy...and look this child likes it too."

Whether it understood or not, Nyururun, the tentacle creature, wriggled even more at its name.

No matter how one looked at it, it was a truly disgusting creature, as if it had been designed on the edge of madness.

It looks like its entire body is made of mucous membranes, and it had a mysterious shine to it.

It bundled the tentacles together to imitate a limb, and when it took human form, it placed the tentacle in its toothless mouth. While it was looking at her (with one strangely round eye between the tentacles), it tilted its head slightly, as if like Krische or Bery.

"Selene also said she wanted to keep a pet right..."

"No! Absolutely no! It doesn't matter if it's a dog or a cat, why do I have to pick up and keep something this disgusting!"

"Eh? I-it’s no good...?"

As if she hadn't expected the answer.

Krische’s eyes widened in surprise and confusion appeared, and Nyururun moved closer to Krische, trembling as if frightened by Selene’s voice.

Krische comforted it, saying it would be okay, and then looked up at Selene with a pleading look.

Like a pet and its owner??the tentacles were clearly already attached to Krische.

“Umm, you see, Krische, we are officially supposed to be magical girls and exterminate monsters right. We have exterminated many of those tentacle-like creatures, right?”

"Yes. But...you see, other than being a little squishy, this child seems like a good child too...ah, its learned paw."

Krische held out her hand, and Nyururun places her tentacle on top of it.

Although it was as if its a puppy, there was no single trace of puppy-like cuteness in its strange shape.

"...To think Onee-sama would be able to communicate with a B-type tentacle."

The flying insect that slipped out of Selene's hands looked at Krische and Nyururun with astonished eyes and frowned.

"Magical Selene. Onee-sama might have a unique talent. There is a possibility that Onee-sama pure heart will cause the spirit of justice to sprout in the obscene tentacles..."

"Please don't say something stupid... You're just trying to cultivate this tentacle by saying nice things, right?"

"Oh, that's not true, how rude. I'm just trying to find a way to coexist with these beings born out of desire, as the Queen of Fairyland."

Swinging her white dress and sparkling red golden hair, her wings fluttered back and told Selene.

This insect, so beautiful to look at, was the most untrustworthy creature in the world.

"I think it's okay. If we can understand the ecology of these tentacles, it will definitely come in handy later on. See, its already attached to my sister..."

"...I just purely don't want to keep something like that."

"...Selene, Krische will take good care of it and discipline it well...look, Nyururun says they’ll make sure to be a good child too."

Krische lift Nyururun and looked up at Selene.

Nyururun wriggled and squirmed, wrapping its tentacles around Krische’s finger as it squirmed. It was a disgustingly repulsive creature, enough to make one's spine freeze. She didn't want to see it or touch it.

However Krische, who was rarely selfish, was begging for it.

Was it okay to deny this head-on based on emotional logic? ??What arose within Selene was a conflict.

“Krische, uh, you know, they're small now... um... they might be cute, but what will you do when they grow up and you can't keep them at home?''

"Grow up……"

Krische looked at Nyururun and then looked at Kreschenta.

Kreschenta nodded.

"It's okay, Onee-sama. Type B tentacles are expandable and retractable. I can keep them in that house."

"...! Ehehe, it looks like it's okay."

"...I'll crush you, Kreschenta."

Good for nothing fly.

When Selene took out her magical spray, Kreschenta started flying around and immediately used Krische as a shield.

As fast as a fly??but right now, the most important thing wasn't this insect.

The opponent was Krische, a pure and innocent younger sister who did not discriminate against others based on appearance, for better or for worse.

It was not good for education to reject it just because she thought it was disgusting after all.

Selene sighed, wondering if there was any good persuasion she can do.

"Wha’s wrong?"

Bery appeared.

"Berry, you done?"

"Yes. Now at Magical Mixer..."

When Selene turned her attention to the area where she had been fighting earlier, she saw the bull-headed demon Nakirus being thrown into a huge translucent blender and being chopped into pieces.

A shredded butchered corpse.

Selene immediately turned away from grotesque sight.

Bery was calmly doing the villainous thing, but when she looked at the creature that Krische was holding in her hand, her cheeks twitched a little.

"...eh, uh, Krische-sama, those tentacles..."

"It's Nyururun. It seemed like it was hungry, so Krische gave it cookies and it got attached to me... so Krische thought about keeping it as a pet, but Selene said no."

"It seems this tentacle has taken quite a liking to you... somehow."

Bery traced her lips with her fingertips with a troubled look on her face, and Nyururun also moved its tentacles and made the same gesture.

Then, Krische said, ‘Nyururun, greeting’, and Nyururun made a deep bow-like movement.

Bery laughed wryly.

"M... my... how smart..."

"Yes. its a quiet kid, and Krische think if Krische discipline it, it'll become a child who will be obedient..."

"I-I see..."

Bery timidly extended her index finger, and Nyururun slowly extended its tentacle and matched it with her index finger.

Bery looked at his slimy fingertips with a troubled expression on her face.

"Well, I guess he's slimy...I don't have very good memories of it, but this sure seems like quiet..."

“Krische’s thought that if it was washed it with soap, it could get rid of it, but...”

“K-Krische-sama, do you want to keep this child…?”

"...Can I?"

Krische looked at Bery with a sad face while holding a wriggling mass of tentacles.

Elevation angle of 45 degrees??the most beautiful girl among beautiful girls, Krische’s piercing upward glance was one of the few weaknesses of the perfect superhuman Bery.

Bery sought help from Selene with her eyes, but Selene's look was firm, conveying an absolute ‘no’.

"Uh, uh...um..."

Bery, caught in the middle, searched for words, but was silent for a while.

Bery just swam her gaze from side to side, switching her gaze back and forth between Krische and Selene.

"…Krische understand "

The person who extended a helping hand to her was Krische the one that caused the problem.

Realizing that she was troubling Bery, Krische placed Nyururun down and reassured Bery, ‘it’s fine’.

"Krische-sama..."

"Krische, if Bery says no, then Krische will give up..."

"...Why don’t you give up when I say no.

Krische was surprisingly obedient to Bery.

Although Selene was a little dissatisfied, she was relieved that the problem was resolved.

"Then, it’s goodbye Nyururun."

Krische then looked at Nyururun, who looked blankly, and turned her palm towards iy.

“Um, K-Krische-sama…?”

"Krische will make sure it doesn't hurt, so it's okay."

Krische said calmly with a smile as she gathered magical power in her palm.

It had enough power to wipe out Nyururun.

"...If there is an afterlife, please be born as a dog or cat that Selene likes, instead of some monster's tentacles."

Nyururun clearly didn’t seem to understand the situation.

It was tilting its head to the side (there’s no head).

they probably never thought that they would be killed by the person who loved them just moments ago.

However, the cliché was basically 1 or 0, and there was no hesitation.

"W-wait a minute! Just because of that, suddenly killing it is a bit much..."

"...? didn’t Selene say to get rid of the tentacles."

"I-I did but! That's not it??"

??And thus Nyururun stay to their house.

Within a week, the Type B tentacles creatures??Nyururun had settled into the house.

Normally, tentacles like this move by crawling by moving their numerous tentacles in a undulating manner, but Nyururun imitates humans by binding its tentacles together to form both limbs and walking dexterously on two legs.

At first, It was as slow as a toddler, but it gradually got used to walking and has now completely graduated from the extremely blasphemous "crawling."

It seems to like Krische and the other and the others, and was a hard worker, following them around from time to time and cleaning the gaps with their deft tentacles.

However, their body seems to be prone to producing slimy mucus on its own, so they were constantly cleaning and wiping away their own dirt.

"My, it suits you. With this it won’t stain the floor."

“Ehehe, that’s good.”

But that would all come to an end today.

A bundle of tentacles sticks into what looks like pink gloves and slippers, and the same pink hat is on the head (in a sense, it's all a head).

Nyururun looked at them and wiggled their body happily.

It seems that they liked the gloves and slippers, and they shows off their joy by doing a twisty dance that defies the concept of cuteness.

Cliché and Berry applaud happily and give each it cookies while looking at each other??Selene, who was sitting in a chair with her chin resting on the desk, a sigh could be seen on her face.

??The mysterious tentacle has become our family's pet.

Not just Krische but Bery to was treating it like a normal dog or cat, and even took a bath with them.

Even when he sleeps, it seems to sleep in a knee socks between two people.

Selene couldn’t keep up with it. She couldn’t understand just what's so cute about those grotesque tentacles.

However, coming this far, Selene, who was the only one who finds the tentacles creepy, just seems like a narrow-minded person.

At this point, all she could do was sigh.

The insect that was lying sloppily on the desk said to Selene.

“You don’t seem please.”

“What kind of face do I have to make when I look at a tentacle for you to be satisfied?…What are you planning to do with it?”

"What do you mean 'what am I planning to do'...? Thanks to it, our broadcasts are booming. Stories featuring tentacles as enemies have always had high ratings, even in Magical Girl Magical?Berry. But ever since 'The Crawling Tentacles and Three Magical Girls' aired last time, the excitement has skyrocketed. The sponsors are thrilled."

"……you"

It's been two years since she became a magical girl.

She was finally able to understand the purpose of this queen of insects.

She claimed it was for publicity, but it seemed she was using Selene and the others to fight while filming suggestive scenes to boost ratings and turn it into income.

She thought the insects were trying to photograph them from low angles, they were truly despicable creatures.

Normally, they should have been able to defeat the demon king Gilgil a long time ago, but she divided Selene and the others and deliberately gave information to the enemy. It is clear that she is holding them back in order to continue the broadcast.

She would rather get rid of this insect, but it seems that it was true that this insect gives magical power to the three of them. If she were to exterminate this insects, they would lose the means to counter Demon King Gilgil.

That seems to mean the collapse of Earth's civilization??and this insect taking advantage of that and use Selene and the others.

It was truly despicable.

“…I guess those tentacles have some sort of trap, right?”

"How doubtful. As I said the other day, I won't touch it. Even I am surprised that you can tame a tentacle."

The insect yawned, and rolled around on the desk.

“First of all, the Magical Girl Magical Bery series is a work of all ages that can be enjoyed by both adults and children. I have taken that into account as well. Last time, I brought you Magical Bery at the right time, right? The tentacles are for pinch production, I won't abuse them.''

Then she kicked Selene's elbow, which was on the desk, with the sole of her foot.

"Why don't you Magical Selene just love it like Onee-sama do? Isn't it human nature to make obedient and understanding lower creatures into pet servants? Regardless of how it looks, it's perfect for a pet."

"……you”

Selene sighed once again, and a plate was placed in front of Selene.

Looking at the cluster of purple tentacles connected to the pink glove that placed it, Nyururun's strangely round eyes sparkled and they looked up at Selene from the chair next to her.

Looking as if was expecting something.

"Ah, thank you..."

Selene’s cheeks twitched as she thanked him, and Nyururun bowed to her, twisting its body around.

And then, it went to Krische.

When Krische stroked its head over the hat and said ‘good child’, it seemed moved and its whole body trembled.

It certainly seems cute if you think of it as something like a smart dog??no, no good. Don’t get misled.

That was clearly a disgusting move.

Krische aside, even Bery has completely accepted this tentacle as a new housemate.

Only Selene must not be misled by the insect's words and tentacles.

"...Anyway, I don't trust it. Krische and Bery aside, don't expect me to do what you want."

??It was a few days after saying that, when Selene was bedridden with a fever.

She had a severe headache and fever, probably a bad cold.

A cool cloth was periodically placed on her forehead as she slept and wakes up repeatedly.

She wanted to thank Bery, but she was too lazy to open my mouth this morning.

The light coming through the curtains felt like it was just before noon.

There was a feeling that someone was looking into her face, and the wet cloth from her forehead was removed and replaced with a new cold wet cloth.

"...Thank you, Bery."

Was it because of the nursing care?

Her headache was mild, she felt a little better, and Selene slowly opens her eyes.

“????!?”

??However, what was in front of her was not a berry, but a wriggling mass of tentacles.

Selene screamed, jerking her body up and pushing the tentacles away from her face.

"...I-I'm not angry, okay."

Nyururun wearing a pink hat was peeking out from the gap in the door, the tentacles trembling.

Selene wiped her sticky face with a cloth, drank the honey-laced water on the bedside table, and let out a sigh.

Nyururun enters the room in a fearful manner (it seems that the way it wriggles is a little different depending on its mood. Tentacles are eloquent) (this is the correct way to describe the scene). It looked up, holding one of the tentacles to its mouth.

Then, with a pop, it slaps the tentacles and moves the tentacles slowly, making a gesture as if he is bringing something to his mouth.

"...Am I hungry?"

Nyururun nodded its head a few times and its eyes lit up.

Then they immediately leaves the room (closing the door properly) and returns shortly after with a plate of honey-pickled peaches and several knives and forks.

Then jumped onto the bed and stood in front of the stunned Selene.

Nyururun deftly held the plate with her three tentacles, and used countless knives and forks to make the honey-pickled peach into bite-sized bites.

Stretching out countless forks and brought them to Selene's mouth.

"Ah...you know, I can eat it myself so..."

A wriggling mass of purple tentacles.

A fork held by some kind of squishy tentacle.

When she tried to refuse her out of physiological disgust, Nyururun twisted around and looked at her tentacles with its round eyes.

Then, with their eyes downcast, they put the bite-sized peach back on the plate with a dejected look (as if wilting).

"...Ugh"

It was a gesture that really made Selene felt guilty.

This squishy tentacle hadn't done anything bad since it got here.

On the contrary, they are hard workers, and in fact, apart from this appearance, they were incomparably smarter than the average pet.

??For example, what if this wasn't a tentacle, but a normal child?

Discriminating against people who are concerned about their sick self and working hard to take care of them based on their appearance.

Is that really the attitude that Selene Christand, the daughter of her respectable father and mother, should take?

Although it has the flaw (almost fatally) of an obscene, blasphemous, and insane appearance, isn't it its heart and actions that she should be looking at?

"I-I understand....P-please give me."

Nyururun reacted to her words with a twitch and looked up at her (or rather, there’s only face), its round eyes sparkled, and its body twisted around.

Then, gingerly and slowly, it placed a bite-sized peach near Selene's mouth.

Closing her eyes and opening her mouth, the peach was inserted between her lips, and she chewed it.

It must have been from Bery. It was refreshingly delicious.

"Ha..mmu..."

As she opened her mouth to say it was delicious, another peach was pressed against her lips without delay.

When she opened her eyes, numerous forks and peaches were wriggling and waiting for Selene.

To avoid the sight of her diminishing appetite, Selene closed her eyes again and silently focused on her meal.

After finishing the meal, Nyururun threw the used knife and fork into the sink where it had put the used wet cloths, and leaves the room in a skipping manner.

It was a very tiring meal for Selene, but since it had good intentions, it was hard to complain.

At least it was taking care of Selene.

;I should be grateful for that;, Selene thought to herself for a while, calming herself down.

She wasn't sure what to do, but she went downstairs to take a shower to wash off her night sweats.

When she looked into the kitchen, she saw Nyururun sitting on a chair washing plates and forks using its countless tentacles.

Nyururun looked at her, tilted its head (there was no head), and when Selene answered that she wanted to take a shower, it nodded in satisfaction.

She was a little wary of it because it seems to usually take a bath with Krische and Bery (along with the insect), but it didn't seem to come into the bathroom for now.

When she leaves the bathroom, sweating with relief, however,

“……”

Right in front of Selene's naked body, there was Nyururun waiting for her with its tentacles spread out.

The things it grabbed with the tentacles were hair dryers, combs, and bath towels.

Not sure if she should make some kind of retorts, she closed her eyes and wipe herself with a bath towel, saying that it had no malice.

While putting on her underwear, Nyururun deftly used a hair dryer and a comb to carefully dry and style Selene's hair??to be honest, it was more careful than Selene, who was a little sloppy.

Then it quickly picked up the used bath towels and put them in the washing machine.

It puts on the gloves and deftly begins to spin the washing machine.

It was better at using her washing machine than Selene.

Moreover, when Selene returned to her room without saying a word, there was a cup of tea prepared for her.

Nyururun looked up at Selene as if expecting something.

"G-good girl..."

When she stroke its head over the pink hat, Nyururun wriggles around.

Then it poured milk, added tea, put it on her plate, and handed it to Selene.

The teacup is warm even to the handle.

When she looked at it, the bed, which should have been a little disorganized, was perfectly made.

More methodical than Selene in all aspects.

Regardless of its helpless look, Nyururun was the perfect pet.

In the end, Selene ended up changing her previous words, and her life with the strange pet continued??

"...Krische, what is this unfamiliar tentacle?"

"Well, it looks like Nyururun brought an injured stray tentacle..."

"I-it’s a no okay. A second one... Nyururun, don’t look at me like that."

"Um, Nyururun can't just leave it alone, so if it's not allowed, she says she'll raise it herself and leave home. She says she'll come back someday to repay the favor."

"Uh, uh..."

And friends attracts friends.

“Nyururun’s friends and children have increased in number… Should we buy some empty warehouse nearby? I have some on hand…”

"That's a great idea. Magical Bery, this is my order. Buy it immediately."

"You idiot, what are you going to do by adding more? Don't be fooled by these insects."

"However, thanks to Nyururun's efforts to educate nearby tentacles, the number of tentacles that cause harm has decreased, and for peaceful coexistence, this is an unavoidable expense..."

Naturally, there were people who questioned her as a magical girl, but

"Oh, Magical Mia..."

"Aaand Magical Kalua! I heard that there is a magical girl who cultivates tentacles, but I didn't expect it to be you, Magical Bery (31)!"

“Ah, um, is it necessary to say my age…?”

"??Nyururun, pre-emptive attack."

"Huh!? it can tear down reinforced concrete with just one tentacle..."

“Nyururun’s power has increased more than before… Onee-sama’s talent as a tentacle messenger has awakened…!?”

"...Can I just go home?"

Forced into silence by sheer force and they challenged the Demon King.

"It's been a while, Magical Girl Magical Berry (32)"

"It... it's been a long time, Demon King Gilgil. Umm, the age is??"

“Kuku, I’m surprised that your ‘Twinkle Heart’ is still shining so brightly. However, too bad even if you brought your friends, the heart of evil has given me enormous power??…tentacles? ”

“Fufun, the one you will fight before Bery is this 108 Nyururun army.”

".... I see, here, I'll make a declaration. If you intend to unleash those tentacles, I'll flee with all my might."

"...Kreschenta, I'll go home first."

“Wait, no!”

Thus the world becomes peaceful??

"Fufu, good job on coming here, Exorcist Shelna."

"I see. ...This is Magical Bery (33), a magical girl who has fallen to evil. Ledo, retreat. The tentacles around them, as well as the two close aides, we can't fight them right now."

"Ah. It can’t be helped, but I guess that's the only way to do it here."

"...Do you think we will just let you go like that? Magical Bery catch them alive!"

??Not become.

"Hmph, the spin-off Exorcist?Shelna series is also doing quite well. Magical Selene, next time you'll be??Mugu!?"

“Don’t want to. Bery, why don't you think it’s time stop going along with it?"

"W-well...I heard that they need a scapegoat to collect evil hearts in order to prevent Demon King Gilgil from being revived..."

"Nyururun, this is a reward cookie. ...Ehehe, is it so delicious that make it you squirm that much?"

The fight to pursue peace while maintaining viewership ratings continue??

Not to be continued.
