The crowing of roosters in the morning can be heard clearly here, something that is impossible to find in Kartovik or other big cities. This is because Vestaria itself is just a small, rundown town. The asphalt roads here are full of holes, some of which are still dirt. The sidewalks for pedestrians are also filled with garbage, and livestock that roam the streets add to the slum impression of this city.However, this did not discourage Alisa from starting her research on the Vitanian community, starting from this small town.“Yosh. Let’s get started.”Initially, Alisa wanted to interview the grandmother who owns the house where she currently lives. However, because she was sick and sleeping, she decided against it and chose to look for another source at Vestarlut Market, a trading place located less than a kilometer from her residence.“Wow, it’s so crowded.”Like most markets, there are many people buying and selling in this place. From various foodstuffs to household goods, everyth
BROOM BROOMA two-wheeled vehicle was seen speeding down a highway in the middle of the forest. The vehicle, called Motosicca, was being driven by two girls. They were heading from Vestaria to a larger city in the middle of the Vitania mainland.“So, I have to leave Vestaria, Flo?” asked Alisa, who was riding behind.“Too bad you have to do that. You won’t get anything there,” Flo replied."Oh, I see?"“If you want to get better information, you should go to a bigger city,” the Vitanian girl continued.Alisa was forced to follow her friend's advice.After speeding through the night fog, they finally arrived at a small district on the hillside. The district was directly connected to the big city ahead. It was called Selenaberg, named after the hill behind the district.“Well, we're here.”They stopped at a fairly large old house with two floors which was none other than Floria's residence.“Wow, it’s so big. So this is your house now, Flo?” Alisa asked.“Yes. I live here now.”They ent
The sun rose into the sky, shining on the land of Vitania on Planet Kamina. The short-haired girl named Alisa Garbareva was seen helping her old friend Floria pick flowers. They picked various types of flowers in the garden to later be sold to the city's people.“Is this enough, Flo?” asked Alisa.“That’s more than enough. Let’s go,” she replied.Riding Motosicca, they went down Selenaberg Hill to reach the city. Only about a kilometer and a half from Flo's house, they could already see a large gate that stretched across the road.“We have arrived. Willkommen in Matrotshaven,” said Flo, which means ‘Welcome to Matrotshaven’ in Vitanian language.“Whoa, it’s so big,” Alisa said in awe.Matrotshaven, the name of a large city south of Selenaberg. Although not the capital of the Vitania Autonomous Region, this city is large enough to accommodate hundreds of thousands of people. The city view is full of shophouses and three to five floors buildings, indicating that the city's economy is tu
“Huh… huh… huh…”“HEY STOP IT YOU DAMN BRAT!!”A man in his 30s was seen chasing someone down a narrow alley and onto the sidewalk next to a main road. The chase briefly caused traffic to be blocked."I WILL NOT LET YOU GET AWAY!!"The man was seen chasing a 13-year-old girl wearing a shabby gray jacket with a hood covering her head. She ran while carrying a medium-sized package in her arms.The child ran to avoid the man behind her. But because she didn't see the road, she was hit by a Motosicca that was driving on the road she was passing.BRUKK“Ahh...”She fell to the asphalt along with the item she was carrying. It was a package containing Clatenda, a type of rice wrapped in leaves.“Oh Gosh.”Flo, who accidentally hit the child, immediately stopped her Motosicca. Alisa also immediately approached her.“Are you okay?” Alisa asked, reaching for the child’s hand.“Uh, I...”“Finally. I got you, you damn thief brat.”The man seemed very upset with her. It seemed like if he caught he
The moon slowly rose above. Unlike usual where Alisa summarized the information she got, this time she was just daydreaming while lying on the bed and hugging a pillow. Flo approached her.“Alisa, aren't you summarizing anymore?”“No. I'll do it later,” she answered in a low voice.“Are you okay? Are you sick?”“No, I’m fine.”Her expression couldn't lie to Flo. Not wanting to say what she was thinking, Flo tried to comfort her.“Huh, A-LI-SA!!”BRUKKThe girl jumped onto the bed, almost causing Alisa to fall over.“Ah, Flo. What’s wrong with you?”While supporting her chin with both hands, Flo, who was lying face down on the bed, looked at Alisa's face.“I see you’re daydreaming. You’re still thinking about Akiha and her family, right?” the long-haired girl asked.“Um…, I…”“It’s okay. We’ll go there again when we have time,” comforted Flo.“That's not what I think.”Alisa shifted her gaze slightly."So what?""I'm afraid something will happen to them," said the girl.Her heart could
Dawn had come. Some people in the city were still fast asleep, but some had already left their homes. Some were rushing to work, and some were just cleaning their yards.The door of a small apartment was opened slowly by a woman so as not to cause any noise around her. She entered the room and closed the door slowly again.“It seems everyone is still fast asleep,” the woman thought.But her guess was wrong. Just as she closed the door, the room's lights suddenly turned on and surprised her. Two young girls were standing in front of her.“Sis Katie.”“Hey, Alisa, Flo, are you guys awake?”“Where have you been?” Flo asked with a sharp gaze.“Well, I just went out for a moment to buy-”Katie tried to dodge it, but Flo already knew everything.“No. You’ve been out since midnight. I know that.”“Hey, what do you mean, Flo?” Katie asked, with an innocent expression.“Why did you lie to us? Why did you do such a bad thing?” Flo asked firmly. Meanwhile, Alisa could only remain silent behind h
BRUUM BRUUMThe girl named Floria was driving her Motosicca fast. Her face still showed anger at that time so that she almost couldn't focus on the road she was taking to go to Trossbourgh.“Tch, why?” Flo muttered.WHOOSHThe Motosicca she was riding went through a puddle of water, causing her to splash onto the sidewalk. Flo drove the vehicle while daydreaming.“Flo...”Alisa, who was sitting behind her, tried to calm the girl down, but she was confused about what she should say.“Why are there still people like that, taking advantage of others for their crimes?”Flo was still muttering while driving at a fairly high speed. So fast, Alisa almost fell when the Motosicca dived quite sharply at a T-junction.“Ahh... Flo...”The long-haired girl was still muttering and didn't care about anything around her.“Why?”Before they knew it, they were already in the Northern District of Salzyburg. It was less than two kilometers to get out of the city and onto the connecting road to Trossbourg
A fairly large gate was right in front of their eyes. The luxurious gate was covered in white marble with gold ornaments on the sides of the walls. The gate was not iron painted gold, but pure real gold.Right after they entered, a slightly hilly green garden was seen that spoiled the eyes of the three of them. There were also expanses of flowers growing there, and the most abundant were the northern blue tulips typical of Vitania."It's so beautiful," Alisa murmured.Before going any further, the bright-haired girl who was now wearing a white dress with a medical eye patch on her left eye led them to the guards at the door. There were three men in white shirts and black pants who were chatting in front of the white-painted post. Those who saw the girl immediately greeted her.“Ah, Young Madam. Willkommen zurück. Welcome back.”“Hey you guys. Oh yeah Roger, by the way, you’re a mechanic, right? Can you fix these wandering girls’ machines?” the girl asked.“Of course, according to Youn
TRINGG TRINGGBANGG BANGG BANGGWUSHHBOOMMMThe sounds of gunfire, rifle shots, magic attacks, and explosions were heard throughout the newly expanded East Kartovik region. The beautiful and aesthetic academic city was instantly transformed into a bloody battlefield.Alisa, Floria, and Frenska still can't get out of the high school complex because they have to face dozens of mysterious magical girls in dark robes that seem endless. The three of them have to fight with their weapons to fight them all.“Damn, they’re endless,” Frenska complained as she blocked a number of attacks with her green staff.“What should we do? We can’t keep doing this,” Alisa said as she swung her wind dagger.SWINGGFlo slashed two robed magical girls with her great sword. And fortunately, that gave her access to the exit.“There, we go down that hallway,” Floria pointed.“Good job, Flo,” Alisa praised.“Okay, I’ll follow your advice. BIO VAIA!!” said Frenska while chanting an incantation.TOKKFrenska stom
“So that’s the condition of the Witches Brigade now? This is hard to believe.”“That’s the truth, Mrs Diana. The division within our organization has reached a critical stage.”Floria and Diana were talking in the principal's office that night. They were alone in the quiet room.“The split inside the Witches Brigade. Their rebellion movement is now starting to falter, especially after many of the top brass left or died in battle. This could be exploited by the central kingdom if they realize it,” Diana said while rubbing her forehead.“At least that’s what’s happening. But, even so, Karelia must also be vigilant. The extremist-minded leaders are still in power. I don’t know if my presence here now is a big risk or not,” Flo said.The principal sighed.“Huh, but at least with you here we understand more about what’s happening there. I was even surprised by Alisa’s statement that a number of the Witches Brigade’s top brass actually wanted to take a peaceful path with us,” said the princ
That night was different from the usual weekend nights. So many people gathered all over Kartovik City, which was sparkling with decorative lights. But the center of the crowd was at Kartovik Girls High School, or more precisely, in the main hall.Unlike other areas in the school complex, the main hall located to the south is not a women-only area. Moreover, the hall is always rented out for big events. And now the building that combines ancient and modern architecture is used by the Kartovik authorities to celebrate the completion of the city's massive expansion and construction.“Wow, it’s so crowded.”Alisa, who was now wearing a long pink off-shoulder dress, looked amazed to see the number of people visiting the place."Of course. This is the biggest celebration party of the year. Moreover, the governor will be coming here," said Frenska, who also wore a long off-shoulder dress, but in orange with white elbow gloves on her hands.They walked towards the entrance of the crowded hal
That bright morning was a decisive day for Alisa Garbareva at Kartovik Girls High School. On this day, she would present all the results of her research entitled 'Social Conditions of Society in the Vitania Autonomous Region' to the examining teachers.There were about 5 teachers, consisting of the principal, Diana Bjolgnir, senior teacher and main caster of the magical girls, Mariya Erlensdottir, Rumia Firlidina, and two other senior teachers. They looked at a number of files from Alisa's research results while listening to the girl speak.The presentation of the research results lasted about an hour and a half before finally finishing at 3 pm."Thank you for the opportunity that has been given to me to present all the results of this research. I am truly happy for the appreciation that you all have given me," said Alisa, who sat on a wooden chair right in front of the teachers who were sitting in a row like judges.“You’re welcome, Alisa. Your research is very good. It opens our hor
Alisa, Floria, and Diana walked together in the 3rd floor hallway leading to the principal’s office. The old woman seemed to be chatting about several things with them.“Alisa, I am really grateful that you came back safely. It’s like a miracle,” said the principal.“Yes, Mom. I also didn’t expect to be able to return to this school after everything that happened right in front of my eyes,” Alisa said.The principal took a deep breath as she adjusted her glasses.“This is truly a miracle. It was I who ordered the Mayer Ehrlich Squad to pick you up at Kirkau Beach. But a magical girl as powerful as her was killed too. The Vitanian Frontline Witches Brigade is truly terrifying.”Alisa did not respond to a single word she said, especially since she saw with her own eyes how the light magical girl was tragically killed at Isabel's hands.“Oh yes, Floria Fresilca,” the principal replied.“Yes, Mrs. Diana?”“I’m sorry if you were a little surprised by what I said outside. But we already kno
An unfamiliar sight appeared in front of the girl's eyes. Kartovik, an academic city where she studied at a girls' high school, now looked very different compared to when she had just left the city for her Acceleration Program.The city now looks wider and grander. The roads that were originally paved with blocks are now covered in black asphalt. The sidewalks are also much wider with more varied streetlights. 5- to 6-floor buildings now dominate compared to 2- and 3-floor buildings.“This is Kartovik, right?”Alisa was still wondering if she had really returned to the place where she used to study, or if this was just a magical illusion. But she just realized it after remembering something.“Ah, yes. If I’m not mistaken, when I was about to leave for Vitania, the city was undergoing major expansion and infrastructure improvements. I just remembered that,” Alisa said.The bus stopped for a moment at an intersection to pick up and drop off some passengers. Floria, who had just set foot
A cold wind blew through the gaps in the shady trees. Four girls were seen standing in a place near a resident's plantation. They were standing in front of a mound of earth with a stone on the end. The name 'Jouiria Valderlia' was written on the stone in the Archipelrunska runes.Sophie Alkatiri and Rinka Sukhova now live alone after their best friend, Joy, has left them both forever in a tragic way. Now they can only see a mound of earth with their best friend's name written on it. That's all that's left of her now.Meanwhile, Alisa stood behind Sophie, holding Floria's hand. She seemed very lost, even though Joy herself had bullied her with Sophie and her friends in the past.“Hey, Flo.”"Yes, Alisa?"“Do you still remember the advice Sister Weiss once gave you?” Alisa asked.“About what?” Flo asked back.“She once said, ‘If someone slaps you on one cheek, turn another to them. Don’t repay evil with evil,’” the short-haired girl said.“Oh, is that what it’s about?”“Now I understand
The extremely bright light still covered the entire view. Nothing else could be seen other than that.“Uhh, so bright...”The black-haired girl covered her head because she couldn't stand the glare in front of her. But slowly the light disappeared. She was surprised by what she saw in front of her."Eh? What happened? Where am I?"She was now in a small town that was lush with green plantations. The houses of the residents were seen neatly lined up and clean. There was also a small road that was quite quiet with a clear water channel beside it."Is this, Telhi?"The girl had just realized that she was now standing in her hometown, which was now destroyed by mineral mining. Remembering that, she tried to make herself aware that she was being affected by magic.“No, no. This is Sophie’s damn ‘Illusia’ magic. I can’t get caught up in it. I have to wake up soon.”The girl named Penny Schaeffer patted her cheeks, hoping to wake up from the magic trap. But it turned out that nothing had cha
Alisa survived this time. The giant explosive magic ball attack was successfully deflected by her senior and one of the main perpetrators of her bullying in the past. This, of course, made Penny very surprised.“Wait, why? Why are you here?” Penny wondered.Sophie pointed her glowing yellow sword at the black-haired girl.“Penny Schaeffer. I already know everything you did to my friend Joy,” Sophie said firmly.“Eh, Sis Sophie?”"You should surrender now and take responsibility for your actions. Your dark magic will be useless against my light magic," she continued.Hearing that made Penny laugh out loud again. She still didn't want to surrender even though her opponent was a light magical girl with high fighting skills."Hihi ... HAHAHAA ...."Sophie swallowed hard, seeing the girl's expression.“SURRENDER YOU SAID? YOU THINK I WOULD DO THAT AFTER WHAT YOU DID TO ME DECADES OF YEARS AGO? DON'T HOPEFULLY, YOU DAMN CLONOVIAN!! YOU SHOULD ALSO DIE WITH THAT DAMN JOY!!”Sophie glared at
