Chapter Index

    Paaang-!!!

    Other sane drivers were startled and honked their horns at the sight of the bike suddenly starting to drive in reverse like a madman.

    ‘I don’t really have any intention of causing an accident either.’

    Well, if it’s an unavoidable situation, then there’s nothing we can do.

    Because it doesn’t make sense to ride a bike and push other cars like a tank.

    Even if it were to work, the speed would drop drastically every time there was a collision like that.

    Fortunately, there weren’t many cars on the road, but everything is relative.

    To me, who was racing at the speed of light, the gaps between the cars running at intervals did not seem that wide.

    ‘It’s a good thing there was a speed bump. Otherwise, I would have had a hard time controlling the speed.’

    Paaang!

    At that moment, a car appeared approaching from the front.

    I could clearly see the driver, whose eyes met mine through the windshield, had an expression on his face that looked almost faint.

    ‘hi?’

    As I waved at the driver and turned the steering wheel to avoid the car, I felt my tires grip the road.

    Dddd!

    The brick-paved European-style road near the arts center was torn apart, screaming.

    I was able to dodge the car with that reaction.

    ‘There’s going to be some traffic there for a while.’

    It would be better if it were an asphalt road, but in this area, asphalt and brick were used together depending on the street.

    I saw the car I had been eyeing rattling past my fan spot through my side mirror.

    After running like that for a while, I was able to catch up with Feng Liu.

    It was a possible overtaking, since Maria had told us her predicted route.

    When I met Feng Liu at the intersection, I turned around and ran alongside her.

    Ki-ki-ki-ki-ki!

    “!”

    “Where are you going in such a hurry?”

    She looked at me with a surprised expression as I suddenly appeared. I didn’t know it, but Feng Liu was likely unable to hear my voice properly because of the wind.

    However, his shocked face quickly hardened as if he had guessed the content from my relaxed expression and the shape of my mouth.

    Looks like he’s scared by the unexpected situation.

    I find it fun because it feels like I’m playing tag on the road, but if you’re the one being chased, there’s nothing like a horror movie.

    Suddenly it feels like the world has turned into some weird genre of movie where the Grim Reaper is chasing you on a bike.

    ‘No, I think there is a movie like that in real life. It might not be so strange…’

    While I was absentmindedly thinking about something else for a moment, Feng Liu changed direction at a right angle as if he was trying to shake me off.

    I followed her and dodged a truck that was rushing toward me.

    The truck driver seemed to be slower to react than the passenger car driver he had first encountered, and he didn’t even realize that I was in danger of colliding with his bike until I swerved.

    Considering the speed at which we are moving now, it is not surprising that truck drivers do that.

    There were several instances where I turned the steering wheel almost continuously to the level of a drift.

    Feng Liu eventually realized that he couldn’t shake me off by simply changing direction. And he looked at the bike leisurely following him using his superpowers as if it were a monster.

    She bit her red lips that were revealed under her goggles and this time ran into the narrow alley.

    Phew!

    ‘Okay, you’re running away there? I’ll take the challenge.’

    -It seems more like a struggle to survive than a challenge.

    I ignored Maria’s words and turned the steering wheel.

    Thanks to the use of high-speed thinking, it was not difficult for Feng Liu to avoid or change direction when a car was coming from the opposite direction.

    But originally, if you were to change direction while pulling the throttle with all your might like this, it would have skidded in the same direction for a certain distance and would have already collided with another object…

    That’s where the power of the artifact comes into play.

    ‘This is more valuable than I thought?’

    I glanced at the synergy bangle spinning around my wrist and thought.

    I thought it would simply increase the output of the machine, but it felt like it reinforced the concept of the bike I was riding as a perfect vehicle in many ways.

    If anything, I was thinking of putting my leg down and applying the brake with my foot, but I felt a satisfying driving sensation even without doing that.

    It feels like you’re one with the bike.

    It’s not that I couldn’t drive to begin with, but now I feel like I’ve been riding a bike my whole life.

    It’s like I’ve achieved the state of unity between the sword and the bike.

    ‘Okay, should we go faster?’

    I lowered my upper body with a smile on my lips. And I let my body go to the vibration and speed of the engine. There was no wind resistance, but there was something called feeling.

    The reason I didn’t immediately push Feng Liu away with my bike or catch him was to enjoy this kind of fun.

    Anyway, if I keep following you like this, I’ll soon get tired of using my superpowers, so there’s no reason for me to end this short game with my own hands.

    Feng Liu must also know that even if he hides himself before he completely shakes me off, he will just be caught by me.

    It seemed like the match would be decided soon.

    I pulled the throttle hard enough to not break it.

    Booo!!!!

    The engine boasting monstrous power roared as it flew over the road.

    In addition to being specially modified by Yuri, the bike, which was also reinforced with artifacts, boasted explosive acceleration that was incomparable to that of a normal bike.

    The fiery exhaust noise from the engine vibrated through the air, and my body felt like it was being pulled down by gravity and then bounced back up again.

    The surrounding buildings passed by in a blur and all noise was drowned out by the roar of the bike engine.

    The entrance to the alley where Feng Liu had run away earlier gradually got closer.

    The road was too narrow for a bike, but I didn’t hesitate even an inch as the entrance drew near.

    As I focused so intently on steering, the true power of this thing was revealed.

    Boom!

    A bike that veers off the road it was driving on and jumps up the curb in front of a narrow alley.

    As fast as the speed was, the height the bike shot up was also unusual. For something that was made to run attached to the ground, it flew like a rocket.

    Below I saw pedestrians looking up at the sky I had passed by.

    If I was running leisurely, I would have cleared the street by giving off a warning to pedestrians, but the speed I was going at was faster than the average person’s perception.

    It was obvious that I would have already passed that place before the pedestrians could sense the danger and move aside.

    In the end, avoiding such people is entirely up to my ability.

    ‘I have to do something as incredible as this.’

    If you hit someone at this speed, they’ll literally explode. The person will literally explode.

    thud!

    The bike jumped over the crowd in the alley and landed with a loud noise in a deserted space.

    “Crazy… !”

    Feng Liu was so shocked by the sight that he opened his mouth without thinking, but was barely able to close it again as the air rushed in.

    I took the shortcut and in the blink of an eye, I followed her and slid between the lanes.

    It was clear that not many people had witnessed my outburst with their own eyes today.

    Even if you try to stay awake, you might not be able to see it, and you might just be able to see an afterimage that passes by in an instant.

    The camera would not have been able to fully capture this speed unless it was an ultra-high-speed camera.

    Even I don’t experience any wind resistance, so I don’t cause any damage to the surroundings except for the road where the wheels touch directly. This means that there is no gust of wind that usually follows a fast bike or sports car.

    Of course, Feng Liu, who runs away in front of me, can’t do that, so he causes a bit of trouble for those around him… but it’s not my fault, so I don’t care.

    “Whoa… !Whoa… !”

    Feng Liu’s breathing became ragged as he ran along the road again.

    His chest rose and fell, and his movements of his limbs appeared more urgent than before.

    ‘It seems like the speed is slowing down little by little. Is it time to end it?’

    At that moment, Feng Liu glanced at me and dug into the building.

    It was clear that he had no confidence in being able to shake them off on the road, so he was trying to shake them off in a building that was difficult to access on a bike.

    Of course, I didn’t care at all.

    Wow!

    She went through the same glass window as before.

    “To the building…!”

    Feng Liu looked back in shock, as if she had never thought I would chase her indoors on a bike. The moment she turned her head to run forward again, her steps momentarily faltered and she stumbled.

    “!”

    Fatigue, tension, and overload of psychic powers.

    I don’t know what exactly caused the mistake, but it was an appropriate timing to end the game of tag.

    I attacked Feng Liu, who was trying to adjust his posture while putting the bike into his inventory.

    Wow!

    We rolled around until we hit the wall, tangled together, and after we hit the wall hard enough to crack it, I sat down on her and lifted my upper body.

    “Caught.”

    Feng Liu swallowed hard when he heard my voice.
