Chapter 113 The Girl Who Learned Despair
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
Heliodor-chan was, in terms of color, almost entirely yellowish.
However, that yellow was faintly-ssu mixed with green as well. My impression was that of a yellowish-green with a strong yellow tint.
Her outfit, like Eme-chan’s, was a mini-skirt type, but she had belts wrapped around her thighs and arms, giving it a somewhat rock-style feel when combined with the design.
Her bangs were long, hiding her right eye, and her hair in the back was neatly trimmed above the shoulders. Part of her bangs had green mesh highlights, and on the left side, her hair was braided together with a ribbon.
”So cuuuute! Now, Shou! Bestow the class!” Ami-chan said.
”Right. As the Dominator¹ 〈Quester²〉, I grant thee a class…!”
I proceeded with the class bestowal. Immediately, I focused power into my eyes and checked the status of the Magical Girl Heliodor.
[Crushing Slaughter—Heliodor]
■Height: 144
■Bust Size: B
■Class: Luminous Archer³
■Attribute: Light
■Weapon: Light Bow Harestane⁴
■Attack Power: Decent
■Defense: Not great
■Mobility: Fast!
■Magic Power: Good
Oh…! It looks like a class that would really use a bow…! In fact, Heli-chan herself is holding a nice-looking bow…!
But strangely enough, that bow didn’t have a string. Also, her Height and Bust Size… there’s no change from her original form as Iris-chan…. This is the first time the physique has been identical to the original form.
”Wh-what is… this…!?” Iris-chan asked.
Heli-chan let her gaze wander over her own appearance in confusion.
This was a common reaction seen in all the girls who transformed into Magical Girls. Since this was already the fourth person, I was remaining calm… or so I thought.
”Eh…!?”
In the next moment. Heli-chan took an action completely different from the previous Magical Girls.
Just as I thought she had floated lightly into the air, she flew away just like that.
Eme-chan and Sard-chan had both taken time before they could fly at high altitudes and speeds.
I thought Heli-chan might be able to fly a little, but she wouldn’t be able to fly freely so suddenly… that’s what I believed in my heart.
That’s why I was surprised when she rose higher than the castle walls in the blink of an eye.
”A-ah…?”
”Shimizu! She… she intends to escape from here!” Liliarette shouted.
”!?”
Liliarette’s words of shock flew at me. However, I immediately understood. Rather, I was ashamed that I hadn’t considered that possibility at all.
(Her Affection Level is high, so I thought she would obediently listen to me…! I mean, to be able to fly like that so suddenly!? Is she compatible with flight magic…!?)
In an instant, Heli-chan crossed the castle walls and flew out beyond the living quarters.
Looking beside me, Liliarette was also transforming into Sard-chan.
”I will pursue her…!”
”Ah, no. It’s okay,” I said.
”Eh…”
While Ami-chan was grinning nearby, I began to operate the crest engraved on Heli-chan’s lower abdomen. It was my first time actually using it, but perhaps because it was part of my power as a Dominator 〈Quester〉, I could operate it with a natural sensation.
First, I stripped away 99% of her Magic Power. With this, Heli-chan would fall to the ground. Since I left a small amount, I think she can avoid suddenly falling from the air and getting seriously injured. Her transformation will likely be canceled soon too.
”Vectra-san,” I called out.
If there was no response, I thought I’d have Sard-chan go collect Heli-chan… but then, Vectra-san appeared out of nowhere with a swift movement.
”I believe Iris-chan is falling outside the castle walls, could you go capture her?”
”I have already given instructions to four of them. She will be brought here shortly,” Vectra replied.
”Ah… is that so…”
Apparently, Vectra-san had noticed that Heli-chan had fled. It seemed she intended to set the combat maids on her to bring her down before she completely escaped the Dominion.
”Yes, yes. Vectra is so capable, isn’t she~?” Ami-chan said.
”I am in a position to lead the combat forces of the Dominion. …It seems they have arrived,” Vectra said.
In the distance, I could see four maids carrying Iris-chan. From what I could see, she didn’t look injured anywhere.
”Hey, Iris-chan. Welcome back,” I said.
”……!”
Iris-chan had a truly terrified expression on her face.
But Ami-chan was right…. For this type, even if their Affection Level gets high, there are cases where they harbor a rebellious spirit, wanting to get back at you somewhere in their heart… I see.
I don’t know if this action was due to a rebellious spirit or a pure desire to return to her family, though.
”Now then… even though you received power from Master, you committed an act that betrayed those expectations. As for me, I propose taking your head on the spot…” Vectra said.
”Hi-!?”
Vectra-san made a very scary proposal. While a frightened Iris-chan is nice, I naturally have no intention of doing that.
”No… that’s a bit much…” I said.
Then, Liliarette, who had returned to her original form, opened her mouth. she put excessive emotion into her words in a theatrical manner.
”My! As expected of the King of the Magic Labyrinth⁵, you are quite kind. To forgive such a foolish girl who tried to run away the moment she gained the mysterious power of a Magical Girl. However, a punishment is necessary~desuwa,” Liliarette said.
”A punishment…?” I asked.
”Yes. Confiscation of the clothes and room provided so far. Naturally, she’s going to the dungeon,” Liliarette replied.
And so, her meals will return to being simple again… Iris-chan is getting teary-eyed….
”Her failure is also the responsibility of me, her educator. Therefore… I would like to be given another opportunity to educate her,” Liliarette said.
”That’s fine, but…”
”Thank you. Well then, King of the Magic Labyrinth. In that regard, I would like to borrow the tools you gave to my sister the other day,” Liliarette asked.
”Eh…”
* * *
I had now come to the room of the Great Phantasmal Soulstone⁶. Since she said it was necessary for Iris-chan’s education, I had created various tools to meet Liliarette’s request. Those had been installed in the dungeon.
A fair amount of time had passed since Liliarette, the maids, and Iris-chan went to the dungeon. From the tools I prepared, I can roughly imagine what kind of treatment she’s going through now.
”Man… I was a bit panicked when she suddenly ran away, but I’m glad the tattoo worked well,” I said.
”I told you during Cleonora’s time, didn’t I! It would be unbearable if the power the Dominator 〈Quester〉 gives was turned back against the Dominator 〈Quester〉 themselves~. That tattoo was made in anticipation of such a situation,~” Ami-chan said.
The tattoo engraved on the lower abdomen is usually invisible. However, it is designed to surface when activated. I was once again confirming with Ami-chan what could be done with the tattoo engraved on the Magical Girls.
”Forced deprivation of Magic Power, taking away words, and even erasing memories… you can do some pretty intense things,” I said.
”Also, increasing the sensitivity of the genitals! I told you before, didn’t I~? It’s for punishment,” Ami-chan said.
I expanded the operation window and projected the scene in the dungeon. There, the scene was exactly as I had expected.
Iris-chan was standing, her hands and neck gently restrained by a single board, fastened to a training stand. Her eyes were covered with a soft cloth, and a wooden handle was being held gently in her mouth.
In that state, she was made to take a balanced posture, slightly leaning forward, while a small oscillating tool was placed near her waist for magical energy testing.
It was the same one used in the practice session with Cleonora the other day, a reliable Made-in-Japan instrument.
Iris-chan was flanked by the maids, and Liliarette was holding the tool, adjusting its magical vibration.
It’s… intense…. Iris-chan’s lower back was flushed bright red, likely from earlier stability training taps. Liliarette showed no hesitation in her precise movements as she carefully monitored the reading tool.
If I had brought the magic beads too, they would undoubtedly have been used for measuring energy flow along with the vibration tool.
However, the moment Iris-chan tried to use excess power, she lost control and had to be restrained again for another round of magical adjustment and discipline. In its own way, it was impressive…!
By now, Iris-chan, who was raised as a young lady, should have understood that not everything will go her way.
”This time, making her a Magical Girl was the condition for the Slave of Love⁷ transformation~. It would be a pain if she tried to run away again, so maybe it’s better to be more careful in deciding whether to make a girl like that a Magical Girl until she becomes a Slave of Love~,” Ami-chan said.
”…You’re right,” I said.
Through Iris-chan, I feel like I’ve also grown as a Quester. I was able to think of ways to earn Ego Points in various situations.
”With that being the case! Let’s make her a Slave of Love within today!” Ami-chan suggested.
”Eh…”
”That’ll make things less troublesome~. Her Affection Level itself is already over 70. All that’s left is to persistently repeat doggystyle thrusting over time, and you should be able to bring it up to 99!” Ami-chan said.
And with me as I am now, I can also use
Furthermore, Iris-chan is currently in a state where she has almost exhausted her Magical Girl’s Magic Power. To satisfy the Slave of Love conditions, it’s necessary for her to transform again, and for that, repeated internal releases are essential.
”…I understand. No matter how long it takes, I will make Iris-chan a Slave of Love. Within today,” I said.
”Yes, yes! Now that it’s decided, let’s make the

Summary:
Shimizu bestows the Magical Girl class ‘Luminous Archer’ upon Iris, who transforms into Heliodor. Immediately after gaining power, Iris attempts to fly away and escape the castle, but her flight is short-lived as Shimizu uses a control crest to drain her energy. She is captured by the combat maids and returned to the dungeon for punishment. Liliarette takes charge of her ‘education,’ using intense disciplinary measures to break her spirit. Shimizu decides to spend the night forcing Iris into total submission to reach the ‘Slave of Love’ status.
—
Character Insight:
This chapter highlights Iris’s desperation and her underlying rebellious streak; despite the system’s ‘Affection Level,’ her core identity still seeks freedom from her captors. Shimizu shows significant coldness and growth as a ‘Dominator,’ viewing her escape not as a betrayal of trust but as a technical failure to be corrected with control mechanisms. Liliarette reveals a sadistic side under the guise of ‘education,’ showing her loyalty to Shimizu’s order. The shift from a magical girl transformation to a dungeon punishment underscores the dark, transactional nature of the power Shimizu wields.
—
Behind the Scene:
The author uses the trope of the ‘untrustworthy captive’ to justify the introduction of more explicit control mechanics. The ‘Luminous Archer’ class is a classic RPG archetype, but subverted here by being bound to a master’s will via a physical mark. The mention of ‘Made-in-Japan’ serves as a meta-joke common in isekai/portal fantasy where the protagonist’s modern knowledge (or items) is superior.
