Type-Moon/Fate World, Tohsaka Rin's home.
"????"
Listening to Mami Tomoe's words, Tohsaka Rin showed a puzzled expression. Was the 'magic' over there really that good?
After making a wish, you obtain magical power?
And this wish has no restrictions??
For example, what would happen if I asked for one more wish?
Or suppose I wished for a world where Magical Girls can live happily without enemies threatening them.
And… I want to be the only Magical Girl left in the world, with no one else allowed to become one—could that be granted too?
At this thought, Tohsaka Rin quietly sighed; she felt this No.10 was a bit too petty.
She didn't know what twist the video would take, but from what she'd seen so far it looked like a rosy world aimed at underage girls, unable to withstand basic magecraft reasoning.
"Forget it, let's keep watching." Tohsaka Rin propped her cheek; if she hadn't trusted the creator's previous video, she would have closed this one already.
It wasn't just Tohsaka Rin.
In Sixth Singularity—the Sacred Round Table Domain—
Fujimaru Ritsuka's group was equally baffled; their discussion was no longer about that so-called 'divine twist'.
Instead they were wondering whether the creature named Kyubey might be the Holy Grail.
Only the legendary all-powerful wish-granting device could possess such might.
Yet in Fujimaru Ritsuka's—or rather Chaldea's—eyes, most Holy Grails were merely large mana clusters, after all, they were cups fabricated by the Demon God King.
Naturally they differed from the true Grail of legend.
But in the video Mami Tomoe spoke so casually: wish to Kyubey and become a billionaire or get a boyfriend?
Wasn't that exactly what Chaldea's first director had done?
"How strange; power like this can't be without a price." Da Vinci murmured while watching, "Could the so-called twist lie with this cute little creature called Kyubey?"
"Fu! Fu!!!" Fou voiced an indistinct cry, but from its very human-like disgust it was clear
it found Kyubey, for all its cuteness, to give off a weirdly 'creepy' feeling.
Inside the video,
Mami Tomoe had just finished speaking when Madoka Kaname showed a helpless expression. "No… um…"
Clearly none of what Mami suggested appealed to her.
Whether a boyfriend or a billionaire, such things were 'useless' to Madoka Kaname right now.
"Then what should we do?"
Realizing she was pressuring her too much, Mami Tomoe smiled and held up one finger. "Let's do this: if you still haven't decided on a wish by the time we defeat this witch,
then we'll have Kyubey treat us to cake~"
"Ca-cake?!!!" Madoka hadn't expected big-sis Mami to say that.
"Yep~ the biggest, most luxurious celebration cake." Mami bubbled with excitement. "Then we'll throw a party to commemorate the formation of our Magical Girl team—Mami and Madoka~~"
With that, Mami strode forward, clearly eager to finish off the enemy.
"I became a Magical Girl… for cake?" Madoka could hardly believe she'd accepted something so trivial as her legendary wish.
That's way too cheap!!!!
Viewers from many worlds smiled knowingly; they found Madoka Kaname and Mami Tomoe quite amusing.
"If you don't want that, then think carefully." Mami's cheerful voice drifted back from afar.
"Mami!"
At that moment Kyubey's voice sounded again.
The scene shifted slightly to the front of an 'operating room', where Kyubey stood with Sayaka Miki.
Their eyes were on a Grief Seed inside—an egg of a witch.
Once it began to stir, the witch would awaken.
Kyubey quickly informed Mami Tomoe, "The Grief Seed is active; hatching has started—hurry!!!"
"OK! Got it!"
Immediately Mami switched to battle mode, her expression firm, voice serious. "Today I'll end this quickly."
"Eh?! Like that?!!" Madoka exclaimed in surprise.
"Whoosh—!!!"
In that instant Mami Tomoe began her transformation—the third time she'd done so before everyone's eyes. Unlike the previous fast-forwards,
this time the entire sequence played out in full.
And this time she didn't look her usual composed self; instead she wore a bright, happy smile.
As the BGM struck up again,
Mami leapt down, ribbons protecting Madoka Kaname from harm while she herself plunged ahead.
She landed atop a 'giant cake', facing a horde of the witch's familiars. As she fell, numerous flintlock rifles appeared around her.
Surveying the familiars, Mami flashed a confident smile, drew a flintlock from the ribbon at her chest, and aimed at the foes ahead.
After twirling the gun, she fired.
The surrounding familiars surged forward, clearly intending to overwhelm her with sheer numbers.
However, Mami Tomoe was an experienced warrior. She eliminated all these Familiars single-handedly, and as she fought, a smile played on her lips.
It was as if she wasn't fighting at all, but rather enjoying a pleasant tour.
Bang! Bang! Bang—!!!
Accompanied by several gunshots, more than half of the Familiars were killed.
'My body feels so light.'
Mami Tomoe's inner voice surfaced; as she fought, she spoke her true thoughts in her heart.
'It's the first time I've fought with such a cheerful heart.'
'I'm not afraid of anything anymore.'
Whoosh~
At that moment, Mami Tomoe landed and looked at Madoka Kaname with a gentle smile.
Madoka Kaname looked back at Mami Tomoe with an expression of admiration, completely won over by her powerful and elegant strength.
In such a short time, Mami-san had dealt with so many enemies all by herself.
She was simply too strong.
Mami Tomoe reached out and took Madoka Kaname's hand, running forward.
'Because I am no longer alone.'
Mami Tomoe opened the door and led Madoka Kaname inside.
On the screen now, Mami Tomoe was smiling very happily.
Madoka Kaname was also smiling happily, as if she could feel Mami Tomoe's joyful mood.
