p1
>This and this too...
>They're all wands!

>Hah
>I see!

>There are magical girls who fly on brooms too -kyu!
>This assignment must be for training you to use magic -kyu!
>Eeh~? Isn't that thinking a little too positive?

>C-Could you let me give it a try?

>I've never used magical tools before...
>so if this is training, I want to face this challenge!

p2
>Haaah!!

>Huh?

p3
>It looks like it was a tool for sucking things up... Was I mistaken?
>It's mainly for pushing stuff in, but who cares about that right now!?
>Onto the next one!!

>Next is maintaining the campus!
>I know what to do here!

>These are dummies for practising martial arts!
>Now everyone in school can train their fists whenever they want...
>That's not it!!

p4
>I-I'm sorry. My use of magic is so-so because I'm not used to magic tools...
>No, none of these have had anything to do with magic...
>What are we gonna do...?

>Ah! There you are.
>You guys are the oddjobbers, right?

>Ah! A cute girl is calling for us!
>Oddjobbers...?

>>School Store - OPEN

>You're lifesavers~!
>A monster appeared so I'm all by myself~

p5
>>School Store
>Tending the school store?
>That's right.
>The subcontractor club does everything, right!?

>We haven't finished cleaning, though...
>Better give up on that before you cause any more damage.

>So they sell wands in the school too?
>You're new students, right?
>I can give you a discount.

>Um... Actually, I don't have a magic wand...
>Do you have one that's easy to use?

>You should get a powerful one like Lupina has.
>Lupina?

p6
>Ah... That's not possible.

>Thanks, everyone~
>Lupina-chan's a special case.
>She's rich since she's the principal's granddaughter, and her weapon is custom made.

>She's popular because of her looks and amasses a lot of "feelings"...
>"Feelings"?

p7
>The "feelings" people give off when they want to cheer on a magical girl.
>She changes that into magic to fight with.
>>Magic
>So basically, the cute and popular magical girls are the most powerful.

>Lupina-chan also said that the more social media followers someone has, the stronger they are...
>That's right! It's not something commoners without strength can buy~

>It's so unfair...
>She gets all this work just because she's a celeb with a nice face.
>It makes me wanna puke...

p8
>Eh...?
>Ah, sorry sorry. Don't mind me!

>Oh yeah! You're Ririka, right?
>Is it true that you're the grand daughter of Lily, the world's first magical girl!?
>Eh!? Where'd you hear that from...?

>I knew it~! Think I can get your autograph!?
>No, no! I'm really...

p9
>Not that big of a deal...
>What's with the lack of confidence -kyu!? You're Lily's granddaughter, aren't you -kyu!?

>Hmm.

>Ah! Welcome~!
>Come on, girls! Help me out!
>The store is open!

>Right...

>By the way, who is Lily?
>Let's just drop the subject~

p10
>Phew~ It's finally over~
>Thank you so much for today! You really helped out!

>Hey, you guys!
>You wanna become strong magical girls, right?
>If you'd like, I can give you a few pointers!

>No, I'm content with just being surrounded by magical gi-...
>Eh!? Are you sure -kyu!?
>Consider it thanks for helping me out all day!

>You probably don't know much about the school since you're new here, right?
>It's a senpai's duty to nurture their kouhais!

p11
>Direct coaching from a magical girl?
>Oooh...
>I'll take anything over cleaning toilets!

>Then it's settled! I'm Futaba Mea, a third year!
>Call me Mea-chan!

>Bye-bye~

>Hah~ I'm exhausted~

p12
>Ah... Cleanup crew? I'm finally done~
>Could you come quickly and clean this up?
>It's bad for the town's scenery...

>We can't let the kids on the "other side" see this~

>Meanwhile, in the bathroom...
>Huh?

>>Cleanup is hard.
