Anime chat group , you let me come only after the world is destroyed?

Everyone in the group thought that someone from the Madoka world had come to Takumi's world.

That was why Takumi and Bronya went over there—or so they assumed.

Looking at the messages in the group chat, Takumi couldn't help but explain.

"It was a world discovered by one of the probes I launched."

"Kyubey is actually kind of cute."

"Should I catch some and bring them back as pets?"

"Just erase their consciousness and brainwash them. Then they could be pets."

"If needed, they could even be immortal."

As Takumi spoke, he started to genuinely consider it.

It did seem like a decent idea.

However, everyone immediately rejected it without hesitation.

Fujiwara Chika: [No way!] [Just seeing Kyubey makes me want to strangle it!] [Immortal or not, I don't want one!!]

Sagiri: [I don't want one either!] [Kyubey just pisses me off.]

Megumi Kato: [Seeing Kyubey reminds me of the Headless Senpai. I refuse.]

Akeno: [Even I don't like it.]

Kurumi Tokisaki: [Maybe in the past I'd like it, since I could crazily drain time from it—basically a perfect portable battery.] [But I don't need that now.]

No one in the group was interested.

Seeing all these responses, Takumi laughed.

Just how hated was Kyubey?

After thinking it over, he gave up.

Everyone already had their own spirit partners—part weapon, part companion. Much better than Kyubey.

Besides, if they needed to vent, there were plenty of other targets.

Sure, Kyubey was cute, but cute enough to make them want to kill it on sight? Definitely not.

Since that was the case, Takumi didn't press the issue.

With more and more Kyubeys appearing, Bronya was clearly wearing herself out fighting them.

Takumi wasn't going to just stand by and watch that happen.

Kyubey's whole strategy seemed to be overwhelming Bronya with sheer numbers.

If quality fails, use quantity?

Thinking that, Takumi glanced over the horde of Kyubeys.

Then he launched an attack.

He directly erased their consciousness.

As soon as he acted, large groups of Kyubeys collapsed as if someone had pulled the plug.

Not just the ones they were fighting either.

Even the Kyubeys back on Earth, who were conversing with magical girls, suddenly fell over.

The magical girls were startled.

"Eh? Eh?"

"What happened to Kyubey?"

The Headless Senpai looked utterly confused.

Homura was also stunned. Had anything like this ever happened before?

Kyubey had just... shut down?

The already fallen Kyubeys were even mumbling something about an invader.

Invader?

Homura froze.

What on earth was happening?

She had no idea.

Why had the enemy suddenly been wiped out?

Had something drastically changed in this timeline?

With Kyubey no longer responding, everyone rushed to investigate.

No matter how they called out, the Kyubeys remained motionless.

As if they were truly dead.

Everyone was baffled.

But there was no one around to explain what had happened.

So they placed Kyubey's body on the table for research.

Homura even ran out.

She wanted to check if the rest of the Kyubeys were the same.

She knew very well that there were many Kyubeys.

If they were all like this, something serious had definitely happened.

Something unlike anything she had experienced before.

Her eyes sparkled with strange hope.

Could it be... that Madoka could be saved?

Thinking of that despair-filled ending, Homura was overwhelmed with emotion.

...

Takumi had wiped out all the Kyubeys.

Seeing this, Bronya was left speechless.

Still, she didn't say anything.

She knew full well that on her own, she couldn't defeat that many Kyubeys.

"What a pain."

"So many corpses—what are you going to do with them? Take them back for research?"

She looked at the field of Kyubey corpses and turned to ask Takumi.

He nodded.

"This species is quite interesting."

"Let Mobius take a look."

"Herta might be interested too, right?"

"Aren't you peeking, Herta? I'm right, aren't I?"

He turned to the livestream.

No need to say it—Herta was definitely watching.

Sure enough, Herta immediately popped up.

Herta: [I'm very interested!! Send them to me!!]

Obviously.

She was definitely curious about Kyubey.

Their method of reproduction was fascinating.

She wanted to study them properly.

Kyubeys were a species governed by a singular consciousness—cold and emotionless.

She wanted to study them and use the knowledge to enhance her own clones.

Not just Herta—Lala 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 away—maybe 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.
