[—Maya Yotsuba: Affection +54]
['Maya Yotsuba' relationship changed to 'Her destined partner']??
I dismissed the notification and climbed the stairs with Maya on my back. It seemed that Maya had become a descendent of an Element. They are born with an inherent elemental power different from their family magic. This power also carried a weird trait of 'dependency', meaning any Element will come to rely on a person in their life.
I still remembered it because Mitsui Honoka had become dependent on Tatsuya sometime along the line.
Yeah, weird since I didn't interfere with the world. Which begs the question: did people think that Maya has the light element? As far as I know, she uses a kind of magic that drills holes in anything—named Meteor Stream.
"Asahi Onii-sama, what kind of magic are you using? Even an Element can't control their special element to this level."
Did she just call me Onii-sama?
"So you know about Elements?"
She tightened her arms around my neck. "Of course, my Clan is very influential in Tokyo, so obtaining this measly information is easy."
"I see… my magic is too unique for this world."
"This world?"
I closed my eyes and tried to focus on sensing any presence in the rooms. Three dots appeared in my mind.
[—You have learned a new skill 'Life Sense']
[—Life Sense (F-Rank): Allows you to sense any living being. At the current rank, your maximum range is ten meters.]
I should have thought of it before since my element was Life. Doing something like this is easy.
(But my love was only dealing with the undead for a long time.)
'That's also true.'
I kicked open the door and threw the frost dagger at the man holding a girl hostage. He couldn't react in time and collapsed with the dagger lodged in his head.
The girls didn't so much as flinch and stood there with lifeless eyes.
Maya's hands trembled. "Is this… what would have become of me?"
I shook my head. "There is no use thinking about that. These girls are your responsibility now."
I won't be staying long enough to help them.
"I understand, Onii-sama. I will try my best to heal their broken heart."
I locked the room from outside and headed off to save the other girls.
We encountered many soldiers on the way but I made quick work of them. The security here was less since it was a branch laboratory.
In an hour, I saved a total of thirty-four girls and sent them to the first floor.
The girls all stood wearing a blank, spiritless expression. The youngest of them was 12 years old. Unlike Maya who could pass off as a fourteen-year-old, this girl looked her age. And these people still raped her.
What the actual fuck? Can't they find some prostitute instead of venting their lust on a little girl?
(My love, please calm down. You are scaring the girls.)
"Master, why are you so angry? Did something happen?"
Even Leme got worried despite being in another world.
"It's nothing, Leme. Just dealing with a minor issue."
"Alright, Master. Do tell Leme if Master needs help."
"I will."
I let my anger slip. My bad. I approached the little girl and patted her head, hoping this would make her better.
It worked as the girl clutched my shirt and cried. Her wails spread to the other girls; they covered their faces and cried.
"Terrible… so terrible. These monsters…" Maya whispered in my ears. "They don't deserve to live."
I waited until the girls regained some spirit and led them outside. Any man standing in our way got vaporized into ashes.
I was a little pissed.
Once the girls were safe and sound, I let Maya down and flew up with Phenex's wings.
"This place should be… Israel Judgement."
Level 6 spell of Phenex, the strongest spell I could use now.
An enormous Phenex avatar materialized behind my back, radiating enough light to brighten the night sky.
The flames concentrated at the tip of its wings and seared past me. The lasers descended on the laboratory and exploded on contact.
Once the blasts calmed down, only debris remained in place of the massive laboratory.
I let out a sigh.
Every nation will receive the news of an unknown magician.
Yotsuba will have to deal with it.
[—Maya Yotsuba: Affection +5]
Maya's shining eyes pierced into my soul. I felt guilty for trying to add this little fox to my harem.
"Onii-sama! You really eradicated it!"
Well, it was better than her entire life turning into mere data like in the original timeline.
I still don't know how many things have changed with my presence but they probably won't be small.
Maya jumped on me as soon as I came down.
"You were so cool!"
When did she become a fangirl?
I instinctively stroked her hair. Patting a girl's head had become a habit at this point.
"Onii-sama, what was that magic?"
"Err…" I scratched my cheeks. How do I answer this?
Maya pushed me and bowed. "I am sorry if I overstepped my bounds. Many old families prohibit their members from disclosing their unique magic."
I shook my head. "It's fine. Just think of it as a unique type of Spirit Magic."
"Ohh… I see. Onii-sama can interact with fire and wind Spirits."
The misunderstandings deepened further. I went with the flow. Explaining will only overcomplicate things.
I brought up another topic to kill some time. "Maya, how are you going to proceed with these girls?"
Maya knitted her brows. "I am not entirely sure. Won't their families help them if they return home?"
"It won't be enough. Without proper treatment, these girls will be isolated. Sooner or later they will resort to something..."
Maya glanced at the girls and let out a sigh. "Miya might have an answer. She was always smarter than me."
"Miya?"
"Miya is my older twin sister."
Of course, I knew it.
Maya opened her mouth to say something but stopped and turned her head up. I followed her gaze to find a chopper approaching.
This girl's senses were sharper than mine.
