Anime Crossover: The Losing Heroines Have Become Witches Chapter 122: Messenger

Soubu High School, Clubroom.

"Demons and the Demon Slayer Corps… It feels a bit unbelievable."

Yuigahama Yui, after listening to Nukumizu Kaju's story, expressed her thoughts frankly: "Man-eating monsters hidden in human society and secret organizations fighting against them. Rather than a ghost story, it feels more like a plot from a shonen manga. Asakura-kun and Hiratsuka-sensei would probably love this story, right?"

"I must remind you, in a sense, we are also a secret organization fighting against supernatural existences to a certain extent, you know."

Asagumo Chihaya reminded from the side: "Although currently, only Takuma-kun and Ruri-senpai have the ability to fight against those things."

"Speaking of which, everyone present now are cheerleaders without combat ability, aren't they?"

Nukumizu Kaju clasped her hands together and cheerfully self-deprecatingly said, "Let's get along well~"

"I still have Napoleon, at least…"

Yuigahama Yui said with a lack of confidence.

"By the way, Asagumo-senpai, is it also because of insufficient Magic power that you haven't awakened your Magic?"

Nukumizu Kaju asked curiously.

"Not exactly. Although my Magic hasn't fully awakened, it's… never mind, it's not an interesting experience."

Asagumo Chihaya sighed.

"So, Asagumo-senpai can confirm that she has Magic, right? I'm a little envious. I wonder what it would feel like if Kaju could have Magic~"

The petite girl said with so longing.

"For Kaju, I guess it would probably be like a hero fighting with a laser cannon called the Sword of Light or sothing…"

Yuigahama Yui said teasingly.

"Why would that be the impression? Kaju is starting to wonder what kind of impression she has left on everyone in the Magic Association!"

The girl retorted very cooperatively.

After laughing for a while, Asagumo Chihaya brought the topic back to Mount Kumotori.

"But I didn't expect Mount Kumotori to have such a story, although its credibility is sowhat questionable…"

"Speaking of credibility, there's actually another rumor,"

Nukumizu Kaju said as if rembering sothing: "Wasn't there a very famous painter before? I think his na was Yamamoto sothing…"

"Ah, I've heard of that too!"

Yuigahama Yui also showed a bright expression, clearly happy that she could participate in the conversation: "I rember that famous painter who had a strange habit! He always only painted the sa person, and many critics said that if his painting skills weren't limited by the subject matter, he would definitely beco a national treasure-level great artist if he painted other things!"

"Although he is a national treasure-level painter now."

Asagumo Chihaya also nodded: "His na is Yamamoto Yuushirou, right?"

"Exactly, that's it!"

Yuigahama Yui nodded vigorously: "He was even ntioned in elentary school art textbooks."

She paused, then looked at Nukumizu Kaju: "So, what happened to this person?"

"It is said that his assistant once ntioned at a party that Mr. Yamamoto had talked about the Kamado family story, and not with the attitude of telling a story, but as if he believed it all to be true."

Nukumizu Kaju said seriously: "Although there is no concrete evidence, there is a rumor that Mr. Yamamoto's parents' generation might have truly experienced that period, and perhaps Mr. Yamamoto himself, when he was young, even had contact with the people in the story, since the Taisho era was only about a hundred years ago."

"When you put it that way, the rumors about Mount Kumotori suddenly seem much more credible."

Yuigahama Yui sighed, then she couldn't help but worry: "Asakura-kun won't be in trouble, will he? Should we also go…"

"No, you can't."

Before she could finish, Asagumo Chihaya interrupted her suggestion: "If we had the ability to help, it would be one thing, but now, if we go, we'll only be a hindrance to Takuma-kun. It's better to stay here and wait for orders."

"That's what you say… but just waiting here makes feel a bit restless."

Yuigahama Yui mumbled.

"My Onii-chan is still waiting for outside, so I'll take my leave now."

Nukumizu Kaju finished the tea in her cup, stood up, and said to the two.

However, at this mont, a stone door suddenly squeezed out from the edge of the inner wall, which had been empty.

Imdiately after, a small Snake crawled out from the crack in the door.

"Oh, is that Yuigahama-senpai's Napoleon?"

Nukumizu Kaju asked.

"No, Napoleon is still under the sofa… Rather, is there actually another room inside the cabin?"

Yuigahama Yui said in surprise.

"This cabin is a supernatural entity related to Magic after all, so anything can happen, right?"

Asagumo Chihaya's acceptance was quite strong. She carefully looked at the small Snake, then said, "Is that little Snake holding sothing in its mouth?"

"It really is…"

Although Asagumo Chihaya and Nukumizu Kaju were no longer as afraid of Snakes due to Asakura's Magic, they still felt a little uneasy when facing Snakes and wouldn't approach them casually. Only Yuigahama Yui, who had Napoleon, was already accustod to the presence of Snakes, and even a strange small Snake, she dared to approach to a certain extent to observe.

"It's a cell phone."

After taking the item from the small Snake's mouth, Yuigahama Yui said with so surprise, "This phone case… it's Asakura-kun's phone!"

"What?!"

Asagumo Chihaya imdiately leaned over.

The phone was not locked and could be opened imdiately. The first page on the screen was a voice recording file.

The three of them looked at each other, then Asagumo Chihaya clicked the play button.

The familiar voice of Asakura Takuma ca from within.

[The ghost story is real. I'm fine for now, but soone has been cursed by the Yamanokemono. Don't get close to Mount Kumotori. Have Napoleon swallow the cursed cara and co here as soon as possible. That small Snake can guide him. I'll explain the details after everything settles down.]

The recording was short, clearly hastily made, but the amount of information was not small.

The girls looked at each other.

"What should we do? Although Napoleon is faster than a normal Snake, it's too far from here to Mount Kumotori… How about we take the train to Kamazawa Station and then let Napoleon find Asakura-kun?"

Yuigahama Yui said anxiously.

"No, the Yamanokemono is a monster with extre malice towards females… Takuma-kun must have also told us not to go because of that. Otherwise, should we use the cursed cara first…"

Asagumo Chihaya tried to think, but the sudden situation seed to make the girl a bit flustered: "No, let's go to Okutama Station and find a hotel there… This isn't safe either, it feels completely indecisive. Damn it, if only we knew more details…"

"Malicious towards females ans basically no malice towards males, right? So how about…?"

Nukumizu Kaju suddenly said, "How about letting Onii-chan take Napoleon over?"

Yuigahama Yui and Asagumo Chihaya both showed expressions of realization. After looking at each other, they both nodded in agreent with the girl's suggestion.
