Aru Majo Ga Shinu Made Owari No Kotoba to Hajimari No Namida 2 (Dengeki Comics NEXT)

[Machine Translation] Meg Raspberry, an apprentice witch, is assigned to collect a thousand tears of joy in order to avoid the "Curse of Death," which will give her one year to live. While she struggles to change her own fate of death, she wonders what the difference is between her and Flea, who is led to an irresistible life span. Meanwhile, her mentor Fausto has a bad back and is unable to play a major role in the annual Otherworldly Festival. In this emergency situation, which is too much for Meg to handle alone, Faust calls on Sophie, a girl who is also one of the Seven Wise Men. Sophie, who is the same age as Meg, is called a genius wizard by the public, but Meg is not at all concerned about Sophie's cool attitude. She is cool and doesn't mind at all. She also takes a swipe at Meg for being naive in thinking that she wants to use magic to connect with other people. Sophie hates magic and even says that her goal is to eliminate magic from the world.
