[bunniefuu]

My first...

Better now?

...was all too unremarkable.

Does your stomach feel better now?

Huh?

I sent you lots and lots of magic.

U-Um...

You...

You...?

You needn't worry, I'll be right as rain
after a good night's sleep!

But now I must retire! Fare thee well!

Huh?

Sheena?

Good night.

That was my first kiss!

Now then, let's study this country's
history of forbidden magic,

continuing from where
we left off last week.

Please open your books, everyone.

First, focus on the
information in the text.

In the end,

I didn't sleep a wink.

It's my second day being paired with Mimi.

I know she was only trying to help,
and anyway...

it's a normal thing for people
to exchange magic with a kiss, right?

Everybody else
has probably already done it.

Stop, stop. I need to
concentrate on the lesson.

Don't think about it!
Don't think about it! Don't think...

Is something the matter, Totsuki-san?

I'm such a dummy!

That's enough for today.

For tomorrow's field training,
we will conduct a mock battle.

In order to improve upon the last time,

please preserve your energy
and save up your magic until then.

Now, let us close our eyes and pray for
the warriors out there on the b*ttlefield.

A mock battle, huh?

Awright, I'm itching for a fight!

You only took one out last time.

Oh, shut up.

I hate this. I wasn't able
to get a single k*ll last time.

You're lucky you're so weak.

There's nothing lucky about it.

Sheena.

Are you okay?

Seiran...

Do your best to get some kills tomorrow.

Oh. Yeah.

You too, Kagari-san.

Hmm? Just call me Mimi.

Good luck tomorrow, Kagari-san.

Yeah, okay. You too.

Well? You think you'll
be able to get along?

Get along?

With the legendary
secret weapon, Mimi-chan.

Mimi...

Hmm? What?

Aren't you going to brush your hair?

I always get the nurse to do it for me.

Are we really the same age?

Sheena.

Face forward.

What is it?

What happens in a mock battle?

We fight against illusionary enemies
that the teachers make with magic

and see who can k*ll the most.

They're copies of the real thing,
so they always attack for real.

But I'm never any good at it.

Are you listening?

So we just have to k*ll
a bunch of them, right?

Y-Yeah.

Hmm?

Sheena?

Aren't you scared, Mimi?

Are you, Sheena?

I guess not.
It's just practice anyway, right?

Yeah! It'll be fun!

I hope we get rice tomorrow.

It is time.

I'll be releasing 100 targets into the
forest for you to face in a mock battle.

One hundred?

There's a lot of us too,
so we should be fine.

This was the site of a real battle
several days ago.

Please take the battle seriously
and treat it as the real thing.

I would like you each
to eliminate three targets.

Three?

Sheena!

Look, we match!

We sure do.

You are here today to learn how to k*ll
in battle so you can serve your country.

Please don't forget that.

All right.

Begin!

It's just like your students
to be well organized, Professor Omi.

Very impressive.

There's only two of them.
I don't see any others around.

Okay. We'll sneak up on them and—

No way...

Wh-What the hell is she?

I'll move in and pursue it.

You attack from range.

We'll be fine, Ari.
The two of us can handle this.

Here I go!

Right!

Back me up!

Ari!

Seiran?

That's one for us!

Wow, just look at Mimi-chan.

How's it going?

Not good at all.

I barely managed to get one so far.

I hear Mimi took out ten in a row, though.

Wow!

With Mimi on our side, maybe we
won't need to go to w*r at all.

Ten of them?

She got ten of them?

How many have you gotten?

N-Not even one yet.

Okay.

What are you...

I'm keeping score.

The only one who's gotten ten
so far is that Mimi girl.

Many haven't even gotten one yet.

Yeah, that's right.

I'm not her.

I just have to try to k*ll three of them.

Yikes. Now that's a lot of magic ash.

Are you sure it was a good idea
to include her?

She might k*ll them all
by herself, that Mimi.

As she was placed in my class,
I have to treat her like anyone else.

You're still mad about that?

This reading...

What? What's happening?

I lost it again.

One's here.

I'm surrounded?

I gotta escape.

Oh. Mimi?

Huh?

Wait. What's happening?

Am I dy—

I don't want to die.

Oh, crap! Somebody's hurt!

Totsuki-san?!

I'll get the professor!

Sheena-chan!

Yeah, that figures.

There's no question. You're the one.

You are, aren't you?

You damned monster.

Is it true that she was
attacked by a real enemy?

Yes, according to other students' reports.

I wonder if it was a survivor
from the last battle.

How awful.

What's going to happen to Sheena?

I'm sure she'll be fine, Seiran.

Nurse?

Yes. You find it?

No, I didn't.
Even though I looked all over.

Yeah? Then I guess we don't have a choice.

Wh-What are you going to do?

We're just gonna have
to make her a new one.

It won't be easy, though.

Sheena, I couldn't find your arm.

You did finish off that enemy,
though, didn't you?

Yeah.

Well, that's good.

Seiran.

We've got to do whatever
we can to help Sheena.

Ms. Fran, is there any way
that we can help?

Well, can you look for Sheena-chan's
medical record for me?

It should be over there somewhere.

Hey, Sheena.

Oh, that makes sense. Hmm...

Nurse!

What do you want?

Sheena's just lying there!

Let her rest for now.

We found her record.

Oh. Thanks.

Um, how exactly do you plan to treat her?

With a kiss, of course.

Huh?

We'll fill her up with a bunch of magic
to stimulate her recovery.

Aww, Nurse!

Shut the hell up!
I told you to keep it down in here!

I wonder if this is Sheena-chan's first.
She might hate me for it.

Fine, then!

Mimi will do it!

Forget it.

You mess this up,
and you could lose an arm, too.

Mimi will fix you up in no time.

Kagari-san...

Ms. Fran!

I didn't teach her that.

How could Kagari-san possibly do that?

Impressive, right?

That is Mimi.

Sheena?

Is this supposed to be normal?

Is this the way of the world?

I hate it.

I hate getting hurt. I hate people dying.

I don't want to go to w*r at all!

My arm... is back?

Oh.

You're awake, you're awake.

Ms. Fran.

So how is your arm doing now?

Let's see.

Whoa! It's lookin' good!

Yeah, clean work!

But it will still hurt for a while,
and you shouldn't put much weight on it

until the scar starts to disappear.

All right.

Right.

I guess Ms. Fran must have treated me.

Thank you very much.

Oh. The noisemaker is up, too.

Ah!

Sheena's awake! Good morning!

G-Good morning.

It's already nighttime.

Professor Omi.

Are you feeling better?

Yes. I received excellent treatment.

It is entirely possible

that students could have lost
their lives during this exercise.

It is my fault for conducting the mock
battle without considering that danger.

I beg your forgiveness.

Oh. I-It's all right.

This is a time of w*r.

When the time comes,
we need to be able to defend ourselves.

Please never lose sight of that fact.

All right.

But still, aren't you relieved
that she made it through all right?

Mimi.

Hmm?

Sheena-chan needs to take it easy,

so you need to stick with her to help out.

Roger!

Up! Up!

I'm good, Mimi.

Up, up, up!

I can walk.

I'm okay. So let's get going.

Up, up, up, up!

Okay, you win. Thanks.

What a little nuisance.

You didn't tell her about
Mimi's restoration magic, did you?

I'll tell her tomorrow.

Ms. Fran...

I'm exhausted, so save it
for tomorrow. See you.

Yummy sugar!

Short and sweet.

It's like she's a completely
different creature now.

Does your arm still hurt?

No. The pain is mostly gone now.

I want to see the scar!

Huh?

Whoa.

You sure have no trouble staring.

She's cold.

I hope your arm gets all better soon.

It's really annoying, losing an arm.

Does that mean you've lost
an arm before, too, Mimi?

Sure have.

You have?

I always charge right at the enemy,
so I get messed up all over.

But I always get better.

Huh?

The enemies always use this kind
of magic on us. It's real strong.

If you touch it, it shreds your flesh.

Could you put that away, please?

I lose a lot of blood,
I get covered in it,

and then I get cold and it gets hard
to see. It feels like being left alone.

Yeah. That's how it felt for me, too.

I hurt, and I got cold,
and I thought I was going to die.

It was scary.

I get it.

Huh?

You don't like pain, do you?
Neither does Mimi.

I see. Mimi's just like us after all.

But I'm glad your arm is better now.

Yeah. If Ms. Fran hadn't fixed it for me,
I don't know what I would've done.

Huh?

Mimi's the one who fixed you, though.

Huh?

What? You don't remember?!

Well, I wasn't even conscious.

Aww. Mimi's kiss fixed you all up!

Kiss...

Y-You did?!

I'll re-enact it for you!

Huh? S-Stop.

Stop!
