This Company sounds pretty shady to me. I definitely get the impression that they're twisting what the magical girls are being told about how their powers work to suit their needs.

I have to agree with that but now we should probably know where she falls on the power scale of the company because I doubt she's the strongest one. Unless we take a diplomatic approach to this
 
... Depending on how things go, you/we might just snag us a legion of Dark Magical Girls. And possibly, not!Kyubey fairies too, if we're this guy, who can safely harvest fallout.

Only bane in that logic, is the mild off chance of 'childhood hero' going WTF? Before realising we got kidnap'd by Magical Girls due to somehow being able to uh... Friendship away their Fallout? :p
 
Omake of Ebon Meeting Company by ComradeH (Non-Canon)(+5)
And so the harem king in him will finally be realized.

OP, can we have some roll bonus for omakes? These dudes just inspire me to make one non-cannon omake. Be warned, I drank the wrong can last night (take a full energy drink can), unable to sleep until 3 (or 3:30) and have to wake up at 6:30. I'm currently consuming the third coffee for the day. Some shit must go down - but we are running a Black Kingdom, it is part of our job description

**************
Aestia Creed, as promised, leads Jacob to meet the Company in order to facilitate a deal between two side. Jacob will help the girl (or girls) hunting down monster in return for intel about magical activities in the area. However, the day begins... terribly right (?) for him.

AC: Well, here we are, the Company HQ.
J: You mean a doll shop?
AC: Does that even matter?
J:... I guess not... Speaking of which, where is the toilet? I've been holding it for a while now.
AC: The hallway on the right, third door on the left. The switch is on the left of the doorway. I will be waiting here then.
J: Thanks.

<Jacob walks there, opens the door... and sees a girl standing up (or down) with a panties being wear in (or out). Both sides stare at each other for a few seconds>
AAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!
?: Pervert! Pervert! Pervert!
J: What?! Hang on, stop! Stop! It's an accident!
?: Nein. Nein... You are a pervert!

<The girl summons a bright blue ball, hitting Jacob in the face. Our hero is thrown into the wall behind him, knocked out>
<He wakes up, seeing Creed's face... and recognises that he is putting his head on her lap and the strange girl earlier is crying in the corner>
J: Huh? What happens?
AC: I'm sorry. My friend is over-excited when...
?: Pervert
J: I'm not a pervert! I'm a gentleman! (Meaning he will watches girl's butt and sips coffee in the same time)
?: Hmmph!
AC: Come on Luminous, it is just an accident. After all, he is a good guy despite his look
L: Hmmph! I don't care. He looks like a gre... I mean a villain. Yes, he is a villain. What if he is a Dark Lord trying to seduce us?
J:... I'm not a lolicon <mumbling>
L: What? Are you saying that you have no interest in flat-chest girl like me? Pervert.
J: ...
AC: Calm down Luminous, as I said. He is a good guy. He helps me to kill the Wraith last week and even heals my injuries.
L: <stare>
AC: Without him, I'd be... dead now. So please, can you calm down?
L: ... Thank you for saving my friend... Not like because she is my best friend is in danger and you save her... Pervert...
J: (I need a sanity check)

<The door opens, revealing another girl. This time, instead of being chubby like AC or L, she is ice cold, void of emotion>
?: ...
J: ...
L: ... Ice Princess.
IP: Luminous, Aestia Creed. I have refilled the water tank as you ask. Commander wants to see our guest in a few minutes. Do you mind if I escort him there?
AC:... YE... I mean, no problem... But I'm afraid he's not strong enough yet.
J: Don't worry, I'm good.

<Jacob stands up and goes away with the new girl. The two girls stay in the room>
AC: Speaking of which, I think the meeting with the Commander is in 30minutes, not right now.
L: May be he change?
AC: Right...

<Meanwhile, the strange girl keeps leaning on Jacob, making him slightly uncomfortable. The duo stays silent for the whole trip, even when they've reached the office. However, Jacob is sure that they have been going in a loop for quite a while. Anyway, his main objective is to chat with the Commander here>
<And he knows something is wrong the moment he steps in the room. The figure just gives him a wrong feeling>
?: Leave us.
IP: Yes, goshujin-sama.

I get the feeling that this is Incubator Corp. in everything but name. Call it a hunch... but either the signs are supposed to be that obvious from our perspective, or this is a red herring entirely.

By the way, why do we have no direct speech in these last two updates? Am I just misremembering and it was always like that?
Or is this supposed to emphasize our camouflage and the altered voice we probably use while having it active?

the power of friendship compels you! join the dark side for we have cookies!

Actually, we might be able to pull this one on the magical girls.
We just create a platter of delicious cookies out of nothing and offer them to a bunch of children... all children love cookies.
They might be child soldiers, but that will not change anything. They will fall to the temptation.

Exactly!
 
Best part is, why stop there? When we can also make a cookie partnership with their likely Not!Kyubey fairies as well. And if ply'd real right, get a MUCH, needed Diplomacy Adviser, to be our 'face' while we incognito, set up the Black Kingdom again.

Guys your forgetting our secret weapon. Count cuddles he would be perfect for this.
 
Alright considering all this here is the plan for such endeavours with the magical girls.
(Operation CuddleStorm)

- 1: Offer a service to drain "Fallout" energy "At Cost" essentially a small fee for our time and abilities.
- 2: Offer complimentary free cookies and sweets to both customers and those just curious or visiting.
- 3: Make ourselves known as a friendly and "powerful sorcerer" to these magical girls.
- 4: Introduce Count Cuddles in the first few days.
- 5: After a little while secretly start useing positive energy in the food we give out to further connect us with being a good thing, and our services making them happier as well as us just being a good person.
- 6: Find a way to make more of Count Cuddles and start giving them out as free pets but in secret our spies!
- 7: Find a way to improve Count Cuddles and keep improving in being more adorable and such as well as actual offensive abilities.
- 8: Begin to offer a beauty service to the magical girls useing our "magic" both with actual magical changes and pushing life force into them.
- 9: Offer to upgrade the various slime pets either for "favors" or just for more money
- 10: Continue to improve and butter up and overall corrupt the magical girls.
- 11: Maintain identity secrecy at all times, though change outfits occasionally.
- 12: Use our service industry per say to introduce further products before potentially selling them in other avenues, such as some kind of potent positive energy drug, potions, weapons, new services, etc.

Join the Ebon Empire, get a Count Cuddles of your own!

The power of EVIL MARKETING!

I'm betting that they're also a dark or otherworldly force at work. Poaching people from them will probably aid us and remove a rival. And we're all in all a better person to work for, I mean we care about our minions! Replacement is hard work, AND they give us more power via using their own power...

Which means... uh... positive feedback loop... uh infinite power generation.... uh we win everything? We just have to use our powers without screwing up!

...

This may be harder than it looks.
 
Question: Is Count Cuddles its canon name now? I've been calling it Bobo this entire time, and I want to make sure I use the correct name.

Question, just how powerful are these magical girls?
Are they just strong through raw power.
Or are they strong due to having a lot of hax

This is something of a sucker's bet. The QM pretty much outright stated the Magical Girls here are based on Magical Burst, which is in turn based loosely on Madoka. To expand a bit on things, while it's entirely possible for the Familiars to be genuinely helpful, the game rules state by default that there is always a Dark Secret behind them or being a magical girl. This is in addition to each magical girl having their own personal crisis to deal with, which sometimes involves the end of the world.

It's hard to compare without knowing how powerful things are in this world, but going by Magical Burst rules, they're fairly variable. The most notable thing comes in the form of rolling crits: Whenever an MBMG (Magical Burst Magical Girl) rolls 6 while doing something magical, their magic flares up and the 6 is rerolled. If it hits 6 again, it gets rerolled again, and again, and again... That can cause their damage potential to shoot up quickly, but also gives them magical radiation exposure that can permanently alter them in horrible ways if they can't keep it under control. Especially since in some cases this results in their magical power violently exploding out, instantly killing every being without magic resistance in the area. Including untransformed magical girls.

Basically, an MBMG can potentially violently explode for much more damage than they would do normally, but this is rarely something they can actually control, nor want to happen.

MB also gives like three different types of magical radiation, each of which will mess you up in different ways, but that's less immediately relevant.

What concerns me is the 'company's' name: Military Company... either whoever is covering up the real name sucks at naming or the gov. is secretly involved... THat's a theory though and we don't have nearly enough information... we really need to visit that antique shop

Edit: Looks up Aestia Creed's name on a search engine

Honestly, Magical Burst Magical Girls are basically bombs that have the potential to deal nation-destroying damage when they go off, so it's not like calling them a Military Company is wrong exactly...
