Does this work too?

Kurumi Tokisaki: Even though Amo is always doing good deeds, why does she have to do it this way? Can't you be normal for once?

Misaka Mikoto: Sigh...

Sawa: Inquiring about Amo's mental state. (JPG)

Stranger: I'm perfectly normal, so who among you will play the villain?

Shubi: ...

Liku: I think you can do it.

Stranger: No, this time as a mentor, I can't switch sides.

Riku: Isn't this perfect? ​​A mentor suddenly turning against Shinji, making him shout 'NO—!' and all that?

Stranger: To kill someone and then destroy their spirit? How could you be so cruel!

Riku: The only thing I don't want you to say is...

Stranger: Wait a minute... Hughie, come help me out and pull Shinji into the forum.

Hugh: Okay.

Stranger: Let's make this clear first, after Shinji comes in, everyone will pretend to be the Magical Girl Alliance, constantly searching for boys and girls who will inherit the power of the previous generation of magical girls in order to fight against the system.

Betty: ...

Altair: I have absolutely no idea where to begin complaining...

Ruri Gokou: I suddenly want to tell Shinji the truth.

Stranger: I don't care, but if that happens, you'll be the only one among us who gets completely fooled.

Ruri Gokou: ...

I'm so angry!

Ah! I don't care anymore!

-----------------

The next day, at Shinji's house.

Leng Mo and the other two got up early, and Shinji also got up, but he was a little drowsy. He was too excited to sleep last night and was still very sleepy.

As soon as Shinji stepped out of his room, he saw Leng Mo and the other two sitting in the living room, cooking something that smelled delicious.

When Leng Mo saw Shinji, he immediately greeted him, "Shinji, come and have breakfast."

"Huh?" Shinji was a little surprised and unaccustomed to the sudden presence of several more people in his house, but he walked over with a smile on his face.

"What to eat?"

"Fried chicken, hamburgers."

"Wow, is this all you're eating for breakfast?"

"I was planning to eat out, but as you know, people in Japan don't have the habit of eating breakfast out..." Leng Mo sighed helplessly. The streets were deserted, especially since this was the countryside.

Shinji paused, then smiled helplessly. "That's true."

The four of them sat at the table eating freshly fried chicken and hamburgers. It has to be said that eating these things early in the morning is a luxury, and it even makes one feel a bit high in cholesterol.

But it doesn't matter!

Everyone here except Shinji is an ultimate life form, so they don't have the problem of high cholesterol at all. Moreover, Shinji, being a young man, doesn't have this problem either, since he doesn't eat it every day.

Just as Shinji was happily munching on a chicken leg, a commotion came from outside.

"Yo, Amo, we're here." Riku, wearing a cloak, stood at the door with Shubi, greeting the people in the living room.

Shinji's house is an old-style Japanese detached house, so you can see the living room from the outside.

Hearing the sound, Shinji curiously peeked over, and Leng Mo greeted him happily, "Richard, Schwi, come and have breakfast."

Riku: "That's great, then I won't stand on ceremony."

Hugh: "Oh! Fried chicken!"

The two walked up to the living room and sat down to eat, while Leng Mo introduced Shinji to the food.

"These two are Riku and Shubi, members of our Magical Girl Alliance. They just got married not long ago."

"Hello." Shinji nodded politely, full of curiosity.

Judging from Riku and Shubi's attire, they were people who had traveled a long way, giving them a weary and travel-worn appearance.

Riku smiled happily: "Hello, Shinji. We are saddened by your grandmother's passing, but I hope you can stay strong. The world needs you."

"Can I really do it? You all say I have the power to save the world, but I don't feel it at all." Shinji looked at Riku and Schwi with a lack of confidence. Although he had considered the possibility that he might be deceived, he felt that there was nothing worth being deceived about.

Moreover, he was certain that yesterday's battle was real, so he didn't think much of it.

Upon hearing Shinji's words, Shubi said, "Believe in yourself, just as we believe in you. It's not about whether you can do it, but about trying to find out if you can do it."

“We won’t let you shoulder all of this alone. No matter how well you do, we’ll find a way.” Riku looked at the innocent Shinji with a gentle smile, feeling as if he had returned to his days as leader.

The children in this group all felt insecure, but were full of expectations for the future, even if they were desperate in the end.

Shinji was deeply moved by Riku and Schwi's sincerity; it had been a long time since he had been cared for like this.

"Thank you." He smiled happily, his face filled with gratitude.

Suddenly, a pink figure appeared in front of everyone. "Oh! You guys didn't even call me for breakfast!"

Shinji was startled by the sudden appearance of the person. "What!? When!?"

"Yo, Shinji. I'm Madoka-senpai, a true magical girl!" Madoka-senpai greeted Shinji with a happy smile.

"Eh? Hello." Shinji realized what was happening and nodded politely.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Senior Xiaoyuan grinned and picked up a chicken leg, handing it to Leng Mo.

"Yay! Ah Mo, have a chicken leg!"

"Oh! Chicken leg!" Leng Mo's eyes lit up when he saw it, and he smiled warmly. He handed the chicken leg that Xiao Yuan had given him to Kazuma: "Kazuma, have some chicken."

"Huh? Thanks!" Kazuma picked up the chicken leg without saying a word and took a bite.

what--!

"Ori—! It's so spicy!!!" Kazuma screamed in agony, clutching his neck.

Leng Mo, his eyes gleaming, grabbed Xiao Yuan's head and said, "You scoundrel, you actually schemed against me! How dare you! This is not to be forgiven!"

"..."

Have you no shame at all?!

Senior Xiaoyuan stared at Leng Mo speechlessly, filled with shock.

Shinji was stunned by what he witnessed, and couldn't help but admire the good relationship between Leng Mo and the others. Without realizing it, he also felt happy.

Then Shinji saw Kaneki hiding to the side, mixing whiskey and vodka with an evil smile on his face.

Then Kaneki kindly offered a drink to everyone present.

"Here! Oolong tea!"

This is oolong tea, what the hell! If I hadn't seen it, I would have actually believed it!

Shinji was at a loss for words, but looking at the liquid in the cup, the color was indeed oolong tea.

As a result, no one present drank it, except for Kazuma, who was so spicy that he grabbed the cup and chugged it down in one gulp.

Gulu gulu gulu...

Everyone watched in awe as Kazuma downed his oolong tea in one gulp.

then……

"This is not oolong tea at all!"

Click! !

Kazuma crushed the cup on the spot, and screamed as if he had transformed into the Hanma clan.

"Kaneki! You bastard, you tricked me!!" He roared furiously at Kaneki.

Kaneki coughed awkwardly, "Cough cough cough, it's not my fault, who knew you'd be so quick. Here, take my cup."

"Okay!" Kazuma didn't say much and picked up the drink in front of Kaneki to moisten his mouth.

Unexpectedly, at that moment, Kazuma raised an eyebrow and, in full view of everyone, pulled out a lighter and set the drink on fire.

tumultuous!

The drink instantly ignited.

Shinji: “…”

Kaneki: "..."

Kazuma: “…”

"Kaneki, can you tell me why the oolong tea caught fire?"

"I don't know! How about we try someone else?" Kaneki said innocently.

"..."

Without saying a word, Kazuma grabbed a lighter and set it on fire with the other people's drinks.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

Instantly, everyone's drinks caught fire.

Kazuma looked at Kaneki with a friendly expression, "Aren't you going to explain this situation?"

Seeing that things were going badly, Kaneki's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he shouted, "I don't know!"

"You think I'd believe your nonsense?"

Even if you say that, I still don't understand!

"..."

-----------------

After breakfast, on the forum, in the chat area.

Shinji Ikari: Wow! This feels amazing! Is this the internal communication system of the Magical Girl Alliance?

Ruri Gokou: ...

Altair: ...

Yukari Yakumo: ...

This kid has probably been completely fooled.

Stranger: That's right! Everyone, welcome the newcomer! Shinji, there are magical girls here, so don't worry about them. Speak with confidence.

Homura Akemi: ...

Shinji Ikari: Hello! My name is Shinji Ikari!

Kirito: Welcome, welcome! That's all I have to say...

Tatsumi: Ahem! Welcome, Shinji! From today onwards, you are a member of the magical girls. Saving the world requires our collective effort!

Shinji Ikari: Yes! I'll do my best!

Tatsumi: ...

My conscience is aching so much...

Denji: It's Shinji! Yay!

Rebecca: Wow! It's Shinji!

Shinji Ikari: Hello!

Ouma Mana: Great! You're full of energy!

Madoka-senpai: Ahem, now that Shinji has joined, we can begin the next step.

Shinji Ikari: What action?
