Chapter 759

~8 min read 1,433 words

Everyone vaguely realizes the significance of this Singularity's existence and the purpose of this grand play.

【

The room is silent, so quiet that even breathing is barely audible.

It is eerily quiet, terrifyingly quiet. The girl just stares at the mirror, motionless.

But just then, a knock on the door comes.

Fujimaru Ritsuka comes back to her senses. There are still visitors to this house?

Is it Jeanne Alter and the others?

Fujimaru Ritsuka opens the door, only to see a purple-haired, red-eyed older sister wearing an off-the-shoulder sweater.

"You probably don't remember me; I'm your aunt," the aunt smiles.

She is Fujimaru Ritsuka's new guardian. Now, even if she is dissatisfied, she can only compromise.

She brings Fujimaru Ritsuka into the room, turns on the lights, skillfully makes curry rice for Fujimaru Ritsuka, and coaxes Fujimaru Ritsuka to eat it.

The cold, dead house... has come alive again.

Fujimaru Ritsuka finishes her meal and returns to her room.

She looks at herself in the mirror.

"And then what? This time it's an aunt who looks a lot like Scáthach; are you going to kill her too?"

"I won't let anyone die!"

"Just you?"

"You don't have the leisure to chat with others. Go kill! Kill, kill, kill! With a heart burning with fire, slaughter someone!"

This scene is so eerie; Fujimaru Ritsuka... is talking to herself, as if she has gone mad.

Who is persuading whom to kill, it is already impossible to tell.

】

【Cú Chulainn: "?! Ha, it's actually that purple-haired old hag?! Ritsuka, you can rest easy this time; that old hag is very hard to kill."】

【Hassan: "Dog, did you eat too many red beans? Are you lovesick?"】

【Kazari Uiharu: "Is Ritsuka awakening a new personality because she is too broken...? This feeling is so terrifying."】

【Madoka Kaname: "Why push Ritsuka to this point... it's too much!"】

【Akemi Homura: "...."】

Magical Girl World

Akemi Homura says nothing.

Madoka, since you know it's too much, why aren't you willing to consider yourself more?

If it weren't for the screen, Madoka would definitely become the Law of Cycles by now, unwilling to abandon all living things even if she herself were to completely vanish, right?

What is the difference between you and Fujimaru Ritsuka?

Whether you like it or not, you are both forced by the world to move forward until you go mad.

The world, the people, all living things... are they really that important? Why can't you cherish yourself properly?

【

"Ritsuka... if there's anything on your mind, tell me. Don't bottle it up alone," the aunt suddenly pushes the door open, her eyes full of heartache as she looks at Fujimaru Ritsuka.

In the aunt's eyes, Ritsuka is under too much pressure because of the tragic deaths of her mother, sister, and junior.

But only Fujimaru Ritsuka knows how real what she is facing is.

Ritsuka looks at the aunt before her and says nothing, simply returning to bed and saying goodnight.

The next morning, Jeanne Alter wakes up from bed. She had a dream... and this dream was about Ritsuka.

No, it wasn't a dream; she seems to have linked to Ritsuka's dream.

Could it be that... her nature is becoming more and more like a human's?

But what makes Jeanne Alter even more puzzled is why her Master, Ritsuka, seems more and more like an ordinary person after accomplishing so many great feats?

【

Jeanne Alter can't figure it out, so she stops thinking about it and goes out to find Fujimaru Ritsuka.

On the other side, Ritsuka rejects her aunt's suggestion to take a few days off to rest at home. Upon going out, she sees Jeanne Alter waiting for her, leaning against the wall.

"Let's go."

On the way, the two see Osakabehime and Mandricardo following them. The two are worried about Fujimaru Ritsuka but don't know how to bring it up.

Fortunately, Osakabehime quickly changes the subject, urging them to head to school.

Just as they arrive at the school gate, they see the student council president, Marie, waiting for them. Even more surprisingly, Marie's uncle, a white-haired, burly man, is also waiting for Fujimaru Ritsuka.

She is Marie's uncle, and also the dean of this school.

He smiles and tells Fujimaru Ritsuka that she can come to him if she needs anything, but before Fujimaru Ritsuka can express her gratitude, her vision suddenly becomes blurry.

Then, a few eerie images flash through her mind: a ferocious magical beast is letting out an angry roar.

Fujimaru Ritsuka's body pauses, and she almost loses her footing and faints.

Marie's uncle immediately wants to send Fujimaru Ritsuka to the infirmary, but is firmly rejected by Jeanne Alter.

Marie wants to explain for her uncle, but seeing Jeanne Alter's expression, she seems to suddenly understand something, and her eyes light up.

"Ah, Orida must like Fujimaru Ritsuka!"

A flush immediately rises on Jeanne Alter's face. She avoids eye contact and retorts in an eager tone, "That kind of thing! How is that possible! As the student council president, don't go spreading rumors there!"

The girl tries her best to refute it, but her blushing cheeks have already said it all.

But the next moment, Marie suddenly takes Fujimaru Ritsuka's hand, requesting that Fujimaru Ritsuka must go on a date with her tomorrow morning.

Everyone is stunned. Jeanne Alter's face turns ashen, and veins unconsciously pop out on her forehead. What does she mean, playing hard to get?

Flirting with her right in front of her face?!

Nothing happens during the day. The next morning, Fujimaru Ritsuka heads to the shopping plaza as agreed. Jeanne Alter also quietly contacts Fujimaru Ritsuka through some means.

Let's get this straight, she isn't jealous of any date or anything; she just wants to ensure Fujimaru Ritsuka's safety! Yeah! That's exactly it!

Soon, Fujimaru Ritsuka sees the student council president, Marie, dressed in gorgeous attire like a city lady. The two finish shopping at the mall and the snack street.

Marie notices Fujimaru Ritsuka's distraction and smiles, "There's a movie I want to show the current you. I think you'll definitely like it."

Fujimaru Ritsuka frowns and follows her into the cinema. Besides the two of them, there is no one else; clearly, Marie has booked the entire theater.

The movie plays; the general plot is a dull and boring revenge story.

Marie also tells Fujimaru Ritsuka her intention in bringing her to see this movie.

She knows what happened to Fujimaru Ritsuka, and she understands Fujimaru Ritsuka.

For her, the beast that killed her family—no matter how the other party begs for mercy, no matter how pitiful or cruel the reason, she will never let them go!

"I will be merciless and unforgiving, and make them be smashed to pieces!", Marie lowers her eyes, cold words spilling out continuously.

Fujimaru Ritsuka clenches her fists, her eyes trembling violently, her teeth biting her lip; she is clearly in immense pain.

She turns to look at Fujimaru Ritsuka, gently stroking Fujimaru Ritsuka's face, "Sure enough, you are that kind of person, someone who can endure suffering."

She slowly reveals an eerie smile, "Let me tell you one thing. I... hate people like this the most."

】

【Vodka: "Killing someone and then attacking their heart?! Boss, this woman is definitely not a good person!"】

【Merlin: "It seems she wants to drag Ritsuka, who is on the edge of the abyss, completely into the abyss."】

【Junko Enoshima: "Isn't this also a kind of trial? Testing whether Fujimaru Ritsuka's heart is firm. It's just that it's truly terrible; it's a bit too disgusting~ It makes me nauseous."】

【JOJO: "Since you want to give a trial, then use your fists to tell the other party the result!"】

【

The movie ends just like that. Fujimaru Ritsuka and Marie walk out of the cinema without a word. Marie smiles and says goodbye to her, as if nothing had happened just now.

Fujimaru Ritsuka follows her, but is attacked by magical beasts. Fortunately, Hassan of the Shining Star, Jeanne Alter, and the others arrive in time to save Fujimaru Ritsuka.

But on the other side, Salieri meets with misfortune.

When Fujimaru Ritsuka contacts him again, Salieri has become their enemy. He says he hates Fujimaru Ritsuka's straightforward personality!

He attacks Taira no Kagekiyo, who came along.

Fujimaru Ritsuka tells Taira no Kagekiyo not to attack Salieri, but is met with an unhesitating retort from Taira no Kagekiyo!
