Editing Failing Witch:Volume3 Episode4 (section)

===Part 8===

Yagoro carried Viocia’s limp form while he, Dorothea, and Melehe ran to the area behind his apartment.

“Hm? What are you doing here, mister? Wait, is she injured!?”

“Oh, no, no, no, no.”

“Don’t worry. Raynold. And Roslynica too. I’ll be visiting my usual spot.”

They ran to the squatter’s district.

More specifically, the giant locked container in the back of it.

“Honestly… Sometimes the things you can’t seem to let go end up coming in handy, don’tcha think?”

Yes.



''School was out for the day. Yagoro was wasting time staring at ''the locked container'' he kept in the squatter’s district behind his apartment. He simply couldn’t convince himself to give up the crashed craft.



''Lately, Yagoro had been spending a lot of time in the squatter’s district back behind his apartment. He seemed to be subconsciously trying to calm himself down with detailed work.



''So what had happened to the locked container he had in the squatter’s district?

''…It would be a real shame if that had been confiscated.



In other words, Myousou Yagoro had mostly finished reassembling the crashed craft.

A few parts were still missing, but he could procure them easily enough with his HEA house. That toy could create any electronic as long as he created the plans and he had even mass-produced a large-scale surface-to-air missile system with it.

He unlocked it.

Unsealed it.

Melehe and Dorothea looked equal parts surprised and confused by what he pulled out. He couldn’t blame them since it wasn’t shaped anything like a witch’s broom.

It looked a lot like a streamlined snowmobile with wings made of composite material.

That was what the base craft looked like when the rear cargo space was removed.

''In his Earth, reindeer-drawn sleds had been developed and evolved to the point they could fly in the sky. Whether that at all resembled the other Earth the Student Council President had lived on in her previous life, he couldn’t say.

Myousou Yagoro had once wound up in this world after getting into an accident with this thing back in his Earth.

Myousou Yagoro’s attempts to return to his Earth in this thing had been blocked by the goddess.

The tutor boy looked up.

The night sky here was different from the one he knew back home. That sky was probably a thick wall separating worlds. By crossing that barrier, he could travel between worlds. That was why the sky was reserved for witches but the goddess had made it so even they couldn’t reach the highest altitudes.

However…

“…”

Could he really do it?

Maybe combining his craft with Viocia’s super acceleration could have caused a miracle, but he couldn’t expect her help when that deadly curse had her unconscious.

He would have to do it on his own.

How many times had he failed before? Even if the goddess’s divine punishment was no longer an issue, could he really ''intentionally'' cross between worlds on his own?

“Sigh, I don’t know what you’re planning, but fine.”

He felt a soft sensation.

The silver-haired girl had placed her hand on the back of his.

No, she had placed it over his hand.

Melehe Superlative.

Then Dorothea Rockpool placed her hand on top of Melehe’s.

“Eep. D-don’t try to do this yourself, teacher. Um, if Melehe and I help you create the Three Aspects, <span style="font-size:75%">then maybe…</span>”

Then maybe success would be within reach.

Each of them would handle one of the Three Aspects. The girls weren’t the only ones who could take advantage of that. Yagoro couldn’t fly, but he could use witchcraft.

With their help, he might be able to break through his past failures.

They might be able to accomplish what he couldn’t on his own.

Melehe grinned.

“We just have to make up for one dunce of a witch, right? The three of us together just have to outdo her wild acceleration. …Don’t try to tell me you can’t do it, pervy tutor.”

“Now hold on. As much as I’d appreciate it, what about your exams? What about Maleficium!?”

<span style="font-size:125%">“What about them?”</span>

She actually looked exasperated.

“Are you kidding me? Of course we’ll keep at it. Maybe we won’t be at the prep school and maybe we’ll be in another world altogether, but we can still study 24 hours a day. Besides, we’ll have a pervy tutor with us, so where’s the problem?”

“Um, even if we go with you to Earth, uh…I don’t see why we need to give up on the entrance exam if we can follow a daily study plan and return here before the exam date. Eep.”

Yagoro was taken aback.

They had actually given thought to the entrance exam.

Yes.

To eliminate the deadly curse and save Viocia, they needed to cross the boundary between worlds without any help from the goddess of interworld reincarnation, but that didn’t mean those girls had to give up on the entrance exam. As long as the curse was dealt with, Viocia would be able to return to this world.

As Navigate Exam, Myousou Yagoro already had a contract with her. He had to get his student into Maleficium no matter what it took.

This was just some curse.

He wasn’t going to give up on his student’s future over that.

“Let’s go.”

He looked overhead.

He saw stars and a giant moon so different from his Earth.

It all acted as the boundary between worlds. And they were about to break through it on their own.

“Let’s goooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!”
