Chapter 48 - Chapter 48: The Queen of the Celts

"What on earth is going on with this child! How could you do this!" Aoko looked at Asagami Fujino indignantly, leaving the other party completely bewildered.

"Wait! Tell me what I did first!" Asagami Fujino asked, her hands not stopping the motion of tying up Jibril.

"Fine! Tell me why you're treating such a cute little girl as a toy! Are you a pervert?!" Aoko said indignantly, even using her body to shield the silver-haired Little Loli behind her.

"What kind of nonsense are you talking about?" Asagami Fujino rubbed her forehead and looked at Aoko helplessly: "Am I that kind of person?"

Aoko didn't speak, only looking at Asagami Fujino warily.

"Forget it."

"Stop." At Asagami Fujino's command, Aoko found she couldn't move.

"Calm down." Asagami Fujino walked in front of Aoko, her body reverting from the Little Loli form, and poked Aoko's forehead with her finger: "You actually believe whatever a child says!"

Asagami Fujino looked at the silver-haired Little Loli behind Aoko and gave a kind smile: "Kallen, could you please explain?"

Facing Asagami Fujino's kind smile, Kallen immediately chickened out. Plus, her foolish protective umbrella was incapacitated, so she had to nod weakly.

"I actually got tricked... and by a child..." After knowing the truth, Aoko felt completely out of sorts.

"That's why I said you're an idiot, and you still didn't believe it," Asagami Fujino said mercilessly: "Aren't you ashamed? A grown person getting fooled by a kid, sigh, it's really embar—hey, hey! Don't cry."

Seeing Aoko's tears starting to flow again, Asagami Fujino's head immediately began to throb. How can a grown person cry so often?

And she's supposed to be a Magus. Asagami Fujino felt embarrassed for Aoko.

"Alright, stop crying, you're a grown woman," Asagami Fujino said, taking some tissues to wipe Aoko's tears. Aoko didn't pull away, letting Asagami Fujino wipe them, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes that Asagami Fujino didn't notice.

"Who is this child, anyway?" After her tears were wiped, Aoko looked at Kallen unkindly. She felt she needed to give this Little Loli, who dared to trick her, a good lesson.

"This child's name is Kallen, Kallen Ortensia," Asagami Fujino said.

"Where did you snatch her from?" Aoko asked directly.

"What do you mean'snatched'!" Asagami Fujino tapped Aoko in annoyance. "I'm saving her, okay? If I didn't get Kallen out, her life would have been miserable later on."

"But being saved by you isn't much better," Aoko said. "Being saved by a lolicon like you—don't think I don't know what you're planning. You're going to make a move on them when they grow up, aren't you?"

"..." Asagami Fujino looked at Aoko in surprise. When did this girl get so smart? Did she eat something wrong?

"Hey! What are you looking at!" Aoko shouted, feeling uncomfortable under Asagami Fujino's gaze.

"Nothing, I just didn't expect you to actually become smart."

"Get lost!"

"You've abducted another one." At the dinner table, Touko looked at the newly joined Kallen and felt helpless. It hadn't been long since the last one was brought back, and now there was another.

"It's nothing," Asagami Fujino said nonchalantly. "Look how cute Kallen is. And Sakura, Kohaku, and Hisui are all so cute too."

Hearing Asagami Fujino's praise, the four Little Lolis were very happy. However, Tohno Akiha at the dinner table was immediately dissatisfied. Wasn't she cute? But because she couldn't afford to offend Asagami Fujino, she could only lower her head, feeling very aggrieved.

Asagami Fujino naturally noticed, but she deliberately ignored it. Once she finished training her, she would give Tohno Akiha some compensation.

"By the way, I'm going to summon another Heroic Spirit tonight," Asagami Fujino suddenly said.

"Don't we have Lia already?" Touko asked. Hearing Touko's words, Lia put down her cutlery and looked at Asagami Fujino.

"Lia is certainly enough," Asagami Fujino smiled. "It's just that this time, I want to summon someone rather special."

"Special? Who is it?" Touko asked curiously. The Little Lolis and the others also looked over in curiosity.

"The Queen of the Land of Shadows from Celtic Mythology, Scáthach."
