## Hanako-kun of Magic魔女と花子くん

**Hanako-kun of Magic** (魔女と花子くん, *Majo to Hanako-kun*?) is a special event hosted by AidaIro on their Twitter, similar to the previous events such as Kamome Monster Nursery and Hanako of the Opera. It began on October 22nd, 2021 at 8:00 PM JST.

## **Summary**

### **Introduction Summary**

“Ah. Ahhhh. Testing testing, 123. Staaarting… now.""

“Once upon a time, in a certain Teen's School, there were two girls who were very close friends.
No matter how you looked at it, they were normal girls...
except they weren't.""

“Well what do you know! They were apprentice witches!
This is a story about Halloween, sweet treats, and love, centered upon these two girls…
Or maybe not!”"

## **Event Timeline**

### **October 21**

...It looks like you were surprised by my sudden call. Well, it is only natural. You, my familiar, had already been told to do some other work."

However, something a little troublesome has happened. It seems like your abilities will be necessary.
Please, join me."

It is almost Halloween.
It’s a special night, where witches bring their familiars and have a party together.
That’s why I asked the apprentice witches to prepare the sweets,
but...now, let us explain what this is all about."

So, uhm. I tried to prepare the sweets with magic,
but I ended up turning some of the students into sweets……
Even if I try to turn them back, it doesn’t work at all."

What should we do!?
Is it too late!?
They’ll turn back, right? Riiiiight?? Senpai, please help us!
Isn’t there some kind of magic that can turn back everyone who transformed into sweets?!"

Please, calm down.
The humans who turned into sweets… For short, the candy-peopleーa spell does exist that can bring them back.
The process is very simple. You’ll just have to eat them."

Why yes, I do mean what I say.
Even though it's a traditional type of magic, it also has terrifying side effects.

“Indeed. There are some cases in which they become a familiar, but this time it’s different.
They return to their normal form, but they get their heart stolen.
In other words, they fall in love with the witch who eats them."

However, you two are only inexperienced apprentices.
The effect will disappear once Halloween is over."

“Now, it still isn't Halloween yet, so let's eat all of the candy-people, and return them back to their original forms.
To choose which sweet you’ll eat, talk with my familiar over here. They're an expert on the subject.
You’re okay with that too, right?”"

“Now, it still isn't Halloween yet, so let's eat all of the candy-people, and return them back to their original forms.
To choose which sweet you’ll eat, talk with my familiar over here. They're an expert on the subject.

“That’s reassuring.
Then, I’ll have Nene eat a candy-person tomorrow.
For the following questions, please refer to this sweets catalog.”"

### **October 22**

"Good evening, Mr. Familiar-senpai!
Thanks for helping us out!
Today's the day I'll eat a candy-person.
The calories are suuuper high, so we can only eat them every few days......
Lets do our best together!"

"...... By the way, do you think the stuff about the candy-people we eat falling in love with the witch that eats them is... t-true...?
Could this be my Limited-time Popular Girl Debut!?
Kyaaa!! Alright!! This must be fate!!""

"Alright, so the first candy-person I eat will be......""

"The "Crowned Galette Des Rois", huh...
The cake has kind of a royal feel to it, doesn't it? Thanks for the food!""

"The dough is crunchy, and the almond cream inside is so sweet and delicious!!
Are those colorful bits dried fruit?""

"Urgh ... !!?""

"W-what is this... what an incredibly stimulating and unique flavor..... something that isn't supposed to be put in sweets... is in here....
Poison...? No, it's not...
I ate it all, but my heart won't stop pounding...""

"T-the true identity of this candy...! It can't be...!""

"Huh? You're... that girl that always comes to the shop.
I think the way you looked eating food was really cute... I remember it fondly.""

"By the way, do you prefer seats by the window, or at the counter?
How about we go eat at the store?
Don't worry about ordering; I'll take care of it." "

Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! ❤❤❤❤
Th-th-th-th--th-this person is....!
The diner's super hottest employee!!
He's admired by the whole student body in our school!!!" "

"I'll absolutely... ❤
W-wait! Are you ordering a super high calory burger for me!?
I... I'll just go home..." "

"You're going home? Really...?
But I wanted to see how you looked when eating...
... you won't let me?" "

"............ Thanks for the food!!!!!" "

"Then \*munch munch\* Familiar-san,
since I'm \*munch\* currently eating this Special Halloween Extreme Mega-sized Cream Burger Meal,
* munch munch\*" "

... you should choose the candy-person that \*munch\*
Aoi will be \*munch\* eating tomorrow...
* munch munch munch\*" "

"Munch munch... (Use this as a reference for the candy!)" "

(By the way, the results of the last poll were won by a slight margin!
Tomorrow is Aoi's turn... good luck Aoi!!)
Huff, huff... munch... munch munch...... "

### **October 23**

"Good evening, senior Familiar-san.
Today, it's my turn to eat a candy-person.""

"Oh, you're wondering about Nene-chan?
She somehow has a terrible stomach ache, so she's been in bed...
She took some medicine, but I wonder if she'll be okay. I'm a bit worried...""

I'll also work hard to not lose to the calories.
The first candy-person I'm eating will be... the "Jack-o-Lantern Tart", right?""

"It has a classic Halloween motif!
I'm a bit worried about the calories, but it's a vegetable, so it should be good for my body
...this sounds like an excuse, doesn't it...""

"Alright, thanks for the food.❤️""

"There's fluffy Pumpkin Mousse on top, and soft, pungent Pumpkin paste on the bottom...
It's a two-layered cake.
It's made from the same ingredients, but with a completely different flavor. It's delightful. ❤️""

"It has a not too-sweet, kind flavoring.
The tart's dough is fragrant and totally delicious...""

"And if you look closely, the shape has been constructed very carefully... it's visually impressive, too; it's incredible. ❤️
... Huh? Could it be...? The true identity of this candy is...""

"Huuuuuhh~? Is that... my classmate, Akane-san~?
Meeting here is destiny! Come and sit over here, look over this way and put your arms like this and your feet over here,
and angle yourself like this...""

"Aahhhh~!! ❤️❤️ It's perfectttt!
Alright, now don't move anywhere for the next 60 minutes, please!""

(This is that girl from the Art Program...!)
(We have different majors, so we've never talked... but I'm a big fan of her pictures...)"

Eh. A pose...!?!
U-um, you mean l-like this!? Or this way... ... Kyaaaa!!!""

"Hup~ Are you alright~?
I'm sorry for pushing you too far.
And this location is bad, too.
OH! How about we go to my place?""

"I want to get to know alllll about you.....
And while we're at it, I could introduce you to my adorable little sister!!""

"Oh no, I have plenty to apologize for myself...
Wait, to your house? And staying the night...?
......"
(I-is this alright...? She might just be joking... But...)"

"... Haah.
* Ehem\* Alright, Familiar-san, it seems I'm going to go look at a picture.""

"Am I nervous? No, not exactly, but...
Anyways, tomorrow Nene-chan and I are going to be resting our stomachs, so take it easy. ❤️
Thank you for your help today.""

"......
......... Fwah~...""

"Boy, I'm hungry...
Oooh! Candy!
Which~one~shall~I~choose...~?"

"There's no time limit! Ahaha!
But we'll cut it off at 3PM tomorrow, so have at it!
Bye-byeeee~""

### **October 24**

Yoohooo~.
Did you choose which one I'd eat yet?"

The "Ghostly Mochi Cookie," huhhh...
Can I really eat this?
Okay!! Thanks for the food.~
I wonder what the insides of a ghost look like...... ............ ............"

…………
……、…………
…！
………………
…… Hmm, I see.
Ah, that was yummy! Lotsa stuff in there.
Yep, their true identity was... ..."

WAHHHH!!! ...... Is this a dream?
Huh? You... haven't I talked to you before?
Well, I'm a cute popular person from the shadows,
so I get why you'd want to talk to me. "

You're pretty friendl-
...er, aren't you a bit close?
Um, don't get so close, please..."

I thought your heart was delicious.
Do you know what happens to those whose hearts are stolen by a fully fledged witch or wizard?
Shall I teach you?"

WAH--- something's growing out of me!!
And, and, my body is... on it's own...!?
What is this!? This is humiliating, but I can't defy it... S-somebody help me!!
I HATE THIS KIND OF HALLOWEEN!!!"

Thanks for the food.
I'll leave the rest to you."

Keep up the good work again tomorrow.
Next is that girl with the uneasy stomach.

### **October 25**

"Good evening, Familiar-san!!
Thanks for choosing that incredible cake the other day!!
Thanks to you, I've been enjoying the dazzling school life of my dreams."

"...... but I've been in a fight with that high-calorie burger, so I'm afraid of what comes next..."

Okay, today, more sweets...
I'm getting two people to fall in love with me, so doesn't that make me kind of... wicked?!"

But there's no other option... it's like a fleeting dream that'll be over after Halloween...
If it's all a dream, then I'm innocent!!"

By the way, I'll be eating the "Sweet 'n Sour Devil Cake" today...
it's a very heavy chocolate cake.
Okay, I'm not gonna think about the calories anymore!!
Thanks for the fooood!"

The sponge cake is bitter,
but the chocolate cream inside is so thick and sweet!
Yes, this is certainly a sinful flavor..."

The raspberry sauce sandwiched inside is refreshing,
and the cake's sweetness stands out... ...
... Raspberry...?
......"

Wait a second... this cake is super delicious,
but what's this cold, unpleasant feeling I'm getting......?
I feel like I'm doing something I can never mend..."

No way... this cake's true identity is........."

...... nnn? Where am I--"

MAGICAL ATTAAAAAAAACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Huff... huff... huff......
That's right... raspberry is Aoi's favorite......
Forgive me, Akane-kun.
This was... yes, this was also for your own good..."

Please stay like this until Halloween ends... and don't wake up...... "

Ah, Familiar-saaan!
This is reaaally bad! Looks like my magic accidentally went off, oopsy! Clumsy Nene! ☆"

This is my classmate, Akane-kun.
He's Aoi's childhood friend, and he's a class representative with her.
So... We'll keep all of this a secret from Aoi. ❤️"

Phew.....

### **October 26**

...... Ah, Familiar-san. Good evening.
Haaah......"

Oh, no, it's nothing big.
Just... the first candy-person I ate was luckily a girl, but I'm pretty sure the next one will be a boy, so I'm a bit nervous.
But I thought of a secret scheme, so I'll be okay."

The candy I'll be eating is the "Blue Candy Apple", huh. I see.
So it's a candy apple...
The blue candy coating and star pattern are so cute. ❤️
I don't know where to start eating from, but I'll do my best."

This apple is so juicy and delicious. ❤️ It is a popular seasonal fruit, after all.
And the candy apple is also a classic Halloween treat.
They're cute visually, and they're exciting when lined up in stores."

Now, before this candy-person turns back to normal......"

... It's time for an outfit change!
MAGICAL MAKEUUUUUUP~!!!❤️❤️"

......?
Ah, hello......
............ Umm.
Happy Halloween...... ?"

(※Magical Telepathy)
(This person is... yes, it must be... my classmate, Yugi-kun.)
(He doesn't talk much, he's a little shy.)"

(I don't really see him with other people...
but he sometimes talks to Nene-chan, who sits in front of him in class.)"

(What the... is that a Halloween costume......?)
(............)
(Somehow, seeing this stuffed animal... has my heart racing.....
When I go home, I'll have to look for where to buy one...)"

Oh, since it's Halloween...
I should give you some candy, right?"

...... He just gave me some candy, and then quickly went home.
I... don't think he figured out it was me. Pretty sure.
We don't know each other very well, so this was for both of our sakes."

There's only one candy left, so let's take a break tomorrow.
Familiar-san, you've done a good job these past few days. ❤️
Okay, have a good night!!"

### **October 28**

～♪"

... Ah! It's a candy!
There's still one left, huh. It looks so sad, all alone...
... But my stomach is full right now~"

I got it!
Heyyy, heyyy! Are you hungry right now?
I'll give it to you!!!"

* cough, cough\*... Yo, shrimp...

Don't shove jelly into other people's mouths!!
It's sparky on the tongue, and refreshing~~ but delicious as well."

I'm on a mission from my lady, you know.
I'm in the middle of searching for the missing candy-person, so I don't have time to pay attention to you.
...... Huh? That Cocktail Jelly just now......"

The last candy-person was the "Heart Cocktail Jelly", now... wasn't it...
...Shrimp... it couldn't be... that the thing you fed me just now was... ...
......
WAAAAAAHH!!! MY LAAAAADYYYY!!!"

...... When a candy-person is eaten by an Apprentice Witch/Wizard,
they fall in love for a limited period of time.
When eaten by a fully fledged Witch/Wizard, then they become a familiar."

... Then I wonder what happens when they're eaten by a familiar that is neither a witch, nor a wizard?"

I don't know, either! Ahaha!
If you're curious, then it'll be fun to see what happens, right?
Bye-byeee!"

Ah, this tv show looks interesting!
What Apprentice Witch Nene is referring to is a promotion tweet of HSHK Chapter 25 by G-Fantasy"

### **October 29**

You came across a wizard that fed you the "Heart Cocktail Jelly"......?
Ah... so that's what happened... ... That's quite unfortunate.
For you, Natsuhiko; and that child, too."

In the first place, It's rare for humans to turn into candy......
So I also don't know what will happen."

For a thing like this to happen, after a familiar eats a candy-person, is... ..."

Um! What... what exactly s'happened to me!?
Am I... ... I- I- I'm not dead, am I!!!???"

No, you're not. Don't fret.
I can feel magic power coming from you.
In other words, you―― you have become a wizard."

From now on, you'll be our friend. You will live, whilst hiding your true identity.
Don't worry. The two apprentice witches that caused this will teach you how to live as a wizard.
That's alright with you two as well, yes?"

The way to use magic, how to ride a broom, and the rules of this world......
there's a lot to learn, but being able to use magic is not a bad thing.
It's very useful."

It's unheard-of to create new allies in this way,
but... I suppose things like this can happen."

It's not long until Halloween.
Please watch over the apprentice witches until then.
Natsuhiko and I will continue our search for the missing "Ghostly Mochi Cake".
Well, then... good work today."

### **October 30**

But I can't believe the magic we learned would blow up, leading to something like this...
Aoi and I will both need to study our magic harder to prevent something like this from happening again."

So, will you teach us magic again?"

Sure thing.
And your magic didn't really blow up in the first place.
What I taught you was the "Turn People into Candy Spell", after all."

Huh!? I never heard of that before...
You taught us that it was the "Candy Preparation Spell", so I used it...
but you tricked us!? That's unforgivable!!
I have no choice but to use my...
SPECIAL ATTACK! MAGICAL IMPAC......"

Woah there.
I didn't say anything because I wasn't asked.
Sorry about that. But it's Halloween, so you'll forgive me, right?"

Ahhh, he ran away!!!
He dodged my Magical Impact, as expected...
But it can't end like this!! We have to chase after that kid!"

We'll capture and punish him, and have a peaceful Halloween Party tomorrow."

Okay! See you tomorrow, then, Familiar-san!
Wish me luck!"

### **October 31**

Good evening, Familiar-san.
Just now, Nene-chan contacted me and said she had finally cornered the cause of this whole Candy-people Incident.
I wonder if she's alright...
let's go after her!"

Nene-chan should be around here... ...
oh no! This is bad!
Instead, it looks like Nene's been cornered!
She's in trouble!
I have to go to her..."

Familiar-san!
Please send your Halloween Power to Nene and support her!"

The Halloween Power from the Familiars is gathering to us....!
With this, even as Apprentice Witches, we should be able to use powerful magics.
Stand up, Nene-chan. Let's do this!"

MAGICAL☆PUMPKIN HEADSHOT・CINDERELLA!!!!"

* cough\* \*cough\*... ...

Oh, no... there was too much power, causing a great explosion...
But with this, that kid should be......
......!!!"

Heh... Heh heh heh, hahahahaha!!!
I never thought Apprentice Witches could be this good...
It's okay.
Out of respect for your hard efforts,
I'll dispose of the contract I made with the kid I turned into a familiar."

But in exchange――
Maybe I'll take one of you two."

I-- I won't allow that to happen!
I won't give you Nene-chan!!"

That's okay! Then I'll take you instea......
......
Sorry. Amane's calling for me, so I gotta go.
See ya!"

He went away......
What was that? A weird drone flew over here...
Is that a boy's voice coming from over there?
I guess he helped us out.
And he said he would let the missing candy-person go......
I don't think he was lying."

Now we can safely join in on the Halloween Party tonight! What a relief!
Let's hurry back and report about this to Senpai.
......
Hey, Nene-chan......"

During this, you and I made new friends, and a new kouhai...
a lot has changed in such a short time.
At this rate, by this time next year, even more will have changed...
Even so... will you spend Halloween with me again next year?"

... I see.
Thank you, Nene-chan.
I love you. ❤️"

## **After Halloween**

"Oh, no, you don't really need to......
You really stand out, Yashiro-san...""
