Artifact Abuse
There was once a time when all was right with the world. Then one day, Haruna Saotome received an artifact that allowed to create anything she can draw.
Artifact Abuse is a Mahou Sensei Negima fic revolving around Haruna's various (mis)uses of her artifact. Written by Japanese Teeth, it focuses on the chaos Haruna causes as she finds ways to twist her artifact to various ends, ranging from the perverted to the ridiculous.
