Not just HertaLala was interested too.
Lala: [Send me some too!! I'll have Nana do the research.]
Takumi didn't refuse.
With a wave of his hand, he packed up all the unconscious Kyubeys and sent them away.
As many as needed.
He also asked Lala to send some to Mobius.
The rest he stored awaymaybe they'd be useful someday.
...
With that settled, Takumi and Bronya left the area.
They had wiped out the entire Kyubey species.
Next, they headed for Earth.
They needed to set up a portal.
The two of them arrived in the city where Madoka and the others lived.
The atmosphere of despair had already begun to dissipate.
Takumi sensed this and was quite satisfied.
He hacked into the world's network and quickly located Homura Akemi.
She wasn't far from them.
And... was she digging through a trash bin?
Was she searching for Kyubey's corpse?
Seeing this, Takumi chuckled.
"Come on! Let's go watch Homura dig through trash."
He said, leading Bronya in that direction.
Bronya was confused.
Huh?
Homura digging through trash?
What was going on?
She was instantly intrigued.
Something must have happened.
She followed Takumi.
They soon reached their destination.
And Bronya saw Homura rummaging through a trash bin.
Chapter 551: We Have Quite a Lot of Magical Girls on Our Side, Probably Several Billion
Bronya watched Homura's actions and fell silent.
A black-haired, straight-laced little girl was rummaging through a trash can.
To someone who didn't know her, she might appear to be a homeless child.
Seeing this, Takumi took out his terminal.
Without hesitation, he turned on the camera and began recording Homura.
Hearing the sound, Homura turned around and looked at Takumi and Bronya.
This moment was captured by Takumi's camera.
When Homura saw Takumi and Bronya, she froze.
What was with their out-of-place aura?
It was like the two of them didn't belong to this world.
This instinctual feeling startled her.
Could it be... the invaders Kyubey mentioned?
With this thought, Homura instantly became serious.
One had to admitHomura's sixth sense was quite accurate.
"Who are you..."
She stared at them intently, as if trying to discern something from their presence.
Takumi's terminal and their incompatible aura made her wary.
She was certain that during all her loops, these two had never appeared before.
This city wasn't large. Someone like Takumi or Bronya, with their eye-catching looks, would have been known if they existed here.
But despite looping countless times, she had never heard of them.
"Hello~!"
"Nice to meet you, Akemi Homura."
Takumi put away his terminal and began introducing himself.
"Bronya~!"
"May I ask what you're looking for?"
Bronya also gave her name.
Hearing their self-introductions, Homura frowned.
She had absolutely no recollection of them.
"Who are you?! I've never seen you before!!"
As she questioned them, Homura quietly pulled out her weapon.
"There are so many people in the world. It's normal you haven't met us~!"
"Also, kids shouldn't play with guns~!"
"I have no ill intentions toward you."
"In fact, I indirectly helped you."
Seeing that Homura had pulled out a gun, Takumi sighed.
As he spoke, he tossed out several Kyubey corpses.
When Homura saw what Takumi had thrown out, her pupils contracted sharply.
"You did this??"
Seeing those bodies, she immediately understood.
The sudden problem with Kyubey must've been caused by these two.
Shocking!
At that moment, Homura was stunned.
"That's right!"
"I wiped out the Incubators."
"We're not from this world."
"When we came here, your world treated us like saviors."
"It told me everything."
"Including how many times you've looped just to save that little round-faced girl~!"
Takumi smiled at Homura.
Hearing this, Homura was shaken.
That was a lot of information at once.
They came from another world? And they knew everything about her?
This revelation made her nervousyet excited.
She didn't care about those details.
If people from other worlds had arrived, didn't that mean she could escape her original ending?
"Did you really wipe out all of Kyubey's race??"
"There won't be any more magical girls from now on?"
That was all she cared about.
If Kyubey's species was truly eradicated, then Madoka wouldn't be able to make a wish.
And no new magical girls would appear.
"Of course~!"
"As for whether magical girls will appear again... maybe?"
"I plan to move your world into mine."
"And we have a lot of magical girls in my world."
"Probably several billion, at least."
Takumi stroked his chin as he spoke.
There would definitely be magical girls in the future.
But they'd be a different kindnot the tragic kind from this world.
When Homura heard Takumi say that, she was stunned.
Several billion magical girls?
Shocking!
Homura was dumbfounded by what Takumi said.
Whether it was moving the world or billions of magical girls, her mind couldn't process it all.
"Don't worry."
"You'll get used to it."
Bronya saw her dumbfounded expression and couldn't help but tease her.
Hearing this, Homura gradually returned to her senses.
"May I ask... about your world?"
She was curiouswhat kind of place was Takumi's world?
"Let me explain it to you slowly."
"Takumi, you go set up the portal."
"Leave her to me."
Bronya volunteered to explain upon hearing Homura's question.
As for Takumi, she'd let him handle the portal.
Homura was underage, after all. Takumi should avoid committing any crimes.
Hearing Bronya say this, Takumi didn't object.
Since Bronya offered, he might as well get started.
Later, they'd move the whole world.
As for Madoka and the othersthey could meet gradually afterward.
With that in mind, Takumi separated from Bronya and began his work.
He chose to build the portal right at the site of Walpurgisnacht.
A place worth commemorating.
After all, it was where Madoka ascended to godhood.
The Site of Deification.jpg
While Takumi busied himself, Bronya began explaining Takumi's world to Homura.
Listening to Bronya, Homura was utterly stunned.
And extremely excited.
That world was so powerful?
Connected to countless other worlds?
Wasn't that amazing?
Perhaps she could play it safe and take Madoka away from this world?
Homura had indeed been traumatized by Walpurgisnacht.
Now that she had a way to travel to other worlds, she wouldn't mind taking Madoka with her.
Only by escaping this despair-filled world could they find a better life!
At that moment, Homura was thrilled.
After thinking about it, she slowly calmed down and continued asking:
"He said earlier that he knows everything about our world, right?"
"Then..."
Before she could finish, Bronya cut her off.
"I know what you want to ask."
"You want to know whether you succeeded in your countless loops, right?"
Bronya quietly looked at Homura.
Hearing this, Homura nodded.
"You failed!"
"You lost Madoka forever~!"
"Madoka became a god, and at one point, you turned into a demon!"
"That's pretty much the conclusion of your world."
Without hesitation, Bronya told her what she wanted to know.
She understood what Homura was thinking.
After all, this was what Homura cared about mostit was what she had been working toward.
After hearing Bronya's explanation, Homura fell silent.
So that's how it was?
It all made sense now.
If they hadn't shown up, perhaps that really would've been her inevitable ending.
Fortunately...
Chapter 552: Your Focus Is in the Wrong Place?
Homura believed what Bronya said.
After all, there was no reason for her to lie, right? Having gone through so many loops, Homura had long matured mentally. The things Takumi had shown and the pile of corpses made her believe them even more.
From Bronya, she learned many things and felt fortunate that Bronya and Takumi had arrived, allowing her to escape the endless cycle. Especially when she found out that Madoka carried immense karmic burden due to her countless time loopsHomura's expression darkened.
After chatting with Bronya for a while on the street, Homura took her to meet Mami. Since Takumi would soon build a portal, she had to inform the others.
Madoka and the others were stunned when Homura brought back a beautiful elder sister. Who was this?
But what they learned from Homura next left them all completely shocked. At first, they didn't quite believe it, but the portal had already been built. Mechanical species were already stationed there.
Seeing these things, everyone was dumbfounded.
Though the portal was complete, it wasn't operational yetTakumi hadn't yet moved the world over. Still, he had already instructed Prometheus to start taking over this world's network.
As Bronya revealed more and more, it became harder not to believe everything.
...
Takumi finished packaging up the entire Madoka Magica world and returned to his own universe to store it. Afterward, he began installing the portal for the Madoka world.
After some thought, he decided to place the portal in the royal palace of Velia.
As he was setting it up, Liliya came over and looked at the portal curiously.
"Why put it here?"
Takumi rarely placed worlds in Velia. Usually, he kept them in cities he built.
Hearing her question, Takumi smiled and explained:
"Because that world is a magical girl world~."
"So I'm placing it with you all."
"Hmm... it's the Madoka Magica world. You've probably watched it, right?"
Takumi looked at her.
Velia no longer needed Liliya to manage much. These days, she was mostly a mascot or just spent time around Takumi.
With nothing better to do, she had watched many anime.
Upon hearing the name, Liliya quickly understood what kind of world it was.
"Madoka is OP?"
She thought of a game she played and subconsciously blurted out the phrase.
Takumi nodded.
"Right!"
"Madoka is OP."
"Though, Madoka hasn't become a magical girl yet."
"Maybe you could take her as a disciple and train her?"
"That's actually not a bad idea."
"She has great potential."
"You need a successor, don't you?"
After speaking, Takumi rubbed Liliya's head.
Thinking it over, Liliya nodded in agreement.
"Alright!"
She didn't reject it. Having watched Madoka, she knew how powerful Madoka was.
Taking her as a disciple would be excellent.
"I want the others too!"
She didn't just want Madoka. The other magical girls seemed good too.
Takumi nodded.
"Okay!"
"All up to you."
If she wanted to do that, he'd let her. Homura would likely bring Madoka to settle in this world.
Takumi could already picture it.
Not long after the portal was completed, Bronya brought several people over.
Seeing Takumi, Bronya waved.
Looking around, she asked in surprise:
"This is Velia?"
Takumi actually put the portal here?
Previously, not a single portal had ever been located in Velia.
"Well, they're all magical girls."
"So it's best to let them stay here."
"Hello~! Madoka."
Takumi explained with a smile, then turned his gaze to Madoka.
Hearing his greeting, Madoka appeared a bit nervous.
"H-Hello!"
According to what Sister Bronya said, this was her husband and also the ruler of this world. He was the one who had traveled with Bronya to their world.
"No need to be nervous."
"Welcome to my world."
"Madoka, Homura, you're welcome to come study here anytime."
"The city you're currently in is the City of Magical Girls."
"Apart from a few men, everyone else here is a magical girl."
"Sometimes, if you see someone around your age, don't be fooled by appearances."
"Many of them could be old enough to be your grandmothers."
"Especially the instructorsplease be mindful."
Takumi seriously explained the situation in Velia.
Velia lacked many things, but legal lolis were not one of them.
If you see a child, don't be surprisedshe might be your ancestor.
Liliya rolled her eyes at Takumi's words.
"Ugh, sorry about that."
"People here are all pretty old."
She couldn't help but complain. It was kind of frustrating.
But thinking about the others in her nation, she couldn't really argue.
Seeing her reaction, Takumi chuckled.
Madoka and the others were stunned.
Huh?
What kind of nonsense was this?
They were all bewildered.
"Is that really the case?"
"Then doesn't that mean the skincare technology here is amazing?"
"Or maybe magical girls here have eternal youth secrets?"
Mami's focus was clearly elsewhere. She was more interested in how people here maintained themselves.
Just that thought made her very excited.
"Umm..."
"Staying young forever is quite easy in our world."
"You can search via Prometheus."
Takumi glanced at Mami, then at the terminal she held.
It was obvious she had received one before coming over.
With that, she could search up the information.
Takumi had never paid much attention to appearances.
He'd always been handsome anyway.
But in this world, there were countless ways to maintain youth.
Drugs, body modificationsyou name it.
If those didn't work, just change your species.
Staying young forever was easy.
Even immortality wasn't a big deal.
Upon hearing this, everyone grew even more interested.
They had studied how to use their terminals.
Now they were eager to explore.
As girls, they were all naturally curious about such things.
"This isn't the place to talk."
"Follow me."
Seeing them ready to search on the spot, Takumi quickly stopped them.
Soon, more people from their world would arrive, and standing here wasn't the best idea for chatting.
Chapter 553: Just Thinking About It Is Exciting
Takumi brought Madoka and the others directly back to his home.
As they appeared in the courtyard, Mami Tomoe and the others looked around curiously. Especially when they realized they were on a mountain, everyone was astonished. From here, they could see the skyline of the cities below.
Seeing the sprawling cities, their eyes widened.
"So magnificent!"
The cities below were enormous. They even saw spaceships flying through the skies, and some dragons too.
