I Reincarnated as a Mob in a Magical Girl Anime and After Repeatedly Saving Them from Near-Destruction as a Mysterious Entity They All Turned Yandere

Episode 28: Puppets

“Now, everyone, show them… the power of the Second Generation Magical Girls.”

At the same time Seleque snapped his fingers, the second generation began to move.

Their movements were refined and efficient.

As expected, Seleque’s [Soul Collector] can completely control the strength they had in life.

“Omega, can you defeat them?”

“Interesting…”

I first face off against two magical girls.

Now, how will they come at me?

“…Magical Flame”

A giant fireball is released from the palm of the magical girl.

The fireball, reminiscent of the sun, gradually melts the surrounding buildings with its intense heat.

As expected of the magical girl known as ‘Inferno’.

For now, I’ll dodge it—huh?

I sense a presence behind me and turn around.

“Magical Tornado”

Immediately, a giant tornado forms behind me.

The tornado lifts debris and cars, slicing through the surrounding buildings with its wind pressure as it approaches.

“It’s like a disaster…”

I draw the approaching tornado and fireball as close as possible.

Just a little more… alright, now!

I escape at the last possible moment.

That was close… I almost got incinerated or shredded. But this should cancel out their attacks—

At that moment, the fireball and tornado collide.

However, instead of canceling each other out, they merge and grow larger, forming a fiery tornado.

I see, this was their plan from the start, not to target me… Even as mere souls under control, their teamwork is genuine. How ironic.

The fiery tornado, now even more powerful from the fusion, approaches me.

Well, it’s useless against me though.

I move closer and closer to the approaching tornado of flames.

And when I reach right in front of the tornado, I counteract it with a gust of wind created by a sweep of my arm.

“Now, who’s next?”

As I call out, a small magical girl, who looks like a young girl, appears before me.

At first glance, she seems weak, but that’s a mistake.

“Souta, this child is quite a formidable warrior.”

(Yeah, probably the strongest among the second generation———)

“…Grand Earth”

The moment the girl chants, a gigantic pointed rock juts out from the ground.

I swiftly dodge the rock with light movements.

But it doesn’t end there; thorns continue to branch out from the tip of the rock one after another.

As I dodge the thorns with minimal movement, the remaining two appear.

“Magical Water”

As she chants, highly compressed water is fired multiple times. Its power is so great that even the hardest metal would be easily penetrated.

And when the other one touches one of the branched rock thorns, roses begin to bloom one after another on the branched rock.

These roses have sharper thorns than usual, and those thorns, combined with the rock thorns, chase after me relentlessly.

“This is troublesome… I’ll destroy everything.”

After manually cutting through the approaching thorns once, I touch the broken rock thorn.

“Hand of Ruin”

Immediately after, cracks spread from the part I touched, propagating throughout the entire rock, eventually causing the gigantic rock to collapse.

As the chasing roses and rocks disappear and my vision clears, there stand the magical girls, gathering energy.

Come on, not even a moment’s rest.

And in the next moment, a combined attack of their respective attributes is unleashed.

“Bullet of Ruin”

A single bullet is fired from the magic circle that appeared behind me, and as soon as it clears the combined attack of the magical girls, it collapses.

To think they would make me use so many techniques… The second generation is indeed formidable.

“How are my adorable slaves?”

“Ah, they’re strong. As expected of the second generation magical girls. Their coordination is excellent.”

“Hehe, it’s not about me, but it feels quite good to have my possessions praised——”

“I found you, Selek…!”

—

—

A voice filled with tremendous anger echoed in the place.

When she turned around, there stood Elisabeth, glaring at Selek with intense hatred.

“Oh my, my. It’s been a while. How have you been?”

“Oh, I’ve been fine… always itching to kill you.”

“Oh, that’s scary… I don’t recall doing anything to be hated by you so much.”

“Don’t play dumb! I will never forgive you for killing my juniors!”

“What are you talking about? They destroyed themselves in a quarrel among comrades. I just used a bit of my ability to create an opportunity.”

“Enough… Just talking to you is a waste… I’ll kill you.”

As Elisabeth raised her fist and it was about to strike Selek, someone stepped in between them.

“Lili…!?”

Lili, the magical girl of ‘Nature.’

She was the leader of the second generation of magical girls, and though her eyes now showed no emotion, she was said to have been a girl who loved nature and expressed her emotions richly when she was alive.

Elisabeth faltered in front of such a precious junior.

“No, that’s not right… Hey, Selek. What did you do to my junior?”

“I’m just manipulating her soul with my ability. She’s not alive, you know?”

“You…!”

“Commander, why are you trying to hurt Lord Selek? Lord Selek is my benefactor who brought me back to life.”

Elisabeth was clearly shaken.

Seeing this, Selek laughed with great amusement.

“Hehehe, you really are interesting. Just because I made her talk a bit, you got so shaken… It was truly comical.”

“You…”

“Commander, why didn’t you save us back then? How can you show yourself so boldly in front of us now?”

“Hahaha, this is a masterpiece! Look, you’re being called out, Commander?”

“You… how much will you toy with the dead—! No, let’s stop. Talking any further will only make me more uncomfortable.”

Regaining her composure, Elisabeth took a deep breath to calm her mind.

“You are Omega, right?”

“Yes.”

“Is it alright to consider you an ally for now?”

“Yes.”

“I see, that’s reassuring. Let’s split up from here. I’ll deal with those girls. You take care of Selek.”

“Isn’t it enough for me alone?”

“I want to put those children to sleep myself…”

There was a definite resolve in those eyes.

“Understood.”

“Thank you. Originally, I would want to take them down myself, but I’ll leave it to you.”

“Leave it to me.”

“I’m counting on you, Omega.”

Elisabeth, having finished the conversation, faced the second generation.

“Is the conversation over?”

“Yes, no problem.”

“Then let’s resume the battle!”

And so, the battle began again.
