Do Yu-geon said nothing. The shock of the kiss must have been so great that he just blushed and lowered his head.

    Because of the height difference, I could see their expressions whether they lowered their heads or not. As I continued to look up, my eyes began to tremble as if I had come to my senses, and our gazes met.

    The guy trembled and took a step back. Why are you running away? We immediately narrowed the distance again. Then he got scared and ran away a couple of steps.

    I was so dumbfounded that I just stared at it, covering my face with my hands and muttering to myself. I mumble softly so I don’t know what I’m saying. I don’t think it’s something I’m telling myself to listen to. Why are you fighting back like that?

    Although it was as expected, it is fortunate that the extreme drug prescription was effective. There was a problem with the follow-up because he was out of his mind and made threats that crossed the line, but it was resolved neatly. It’s been an hour.

    But I am worried that the reaction is excessive. I can see a future where I will be swayed by my lover. I was worried about this, so I tried to let him gain dating experience through selected people, but I couldn’t do it because Yumina got in the way. The harm caused by Yumina is truly great.

    As I took a step closer, I felt him stop talking to himself and take a breath.

    Umm… … .

    A small feeling rose up in my heart. If I had to give it a name, it would be playful. I hesitated. It’s not like I haven’t played around with Do Yoo-geon for no reason. Although I had a calm personality in my past life, I tended to try to joke appropriately because it plays an important role in communication.

    I didn’t do it well in this life, but of course it was because I was concerned about Do Yoo-gun. Because you have a duty to act like an adult in front of your child in order to set an example for others. Even if adultness is just a utopian concept.

    … … No. In the first place, we’re the same age, so there’s nothing else to do but be a role model. That’s right.

    He used his magic power to stab Do Yu-geon in the side. I could see him making a strange noise and being surprised. Then the guy started talking gibberish and ran away. I’m ready to go home. I can’t come to my senses. It would be better to let it go home rather than holding on to it for no reason.

    Disrupted the magical power and eliminated the magic that was being maintained. Several floating trees crashed, making a loud noise, and part of the clearing where they were flying landed and dust rose up. A wind was created and the dust was blown away.

    Looking around, it was quite a mess. The ground was uneven and roughly fallen trees were falling on intact plants and trees. At that moment, a pine tree crackled under the weight and fell down.

    Yes… … .

    Well, the person in charge will take care of it.

    I went back to the vacant lot and picked up the flower pot on the ground. It was covered in dust, so I gave it a pat. It’s a big blow. It’s Stooky who named it green onion, not green onion. I was going to introduce our plant friend to Do Yu-geon, but I missed the timing.

    “I’ll introduce you next time.”

    I spoke soothingly, but the green onion was silent. this. I guess I’m so sad that I can’t speak. What should I do because I feel sorry for him?

    When I heard a voice and turned around, I saw my grandfather hitting his head against the wall of the mansion. Next to him, the chief secretary offered comforting words.

    “Everything is like this these days.”

    It feels like teasing, not comforting. As a current middle school student with a bright future, judging by the changing times, it’s ridiculous. Is this the leisure of a middle school student? fun.

    My grandfather came over to me and grabbed both of my shoulders.

    “Sky! This old man….”

    blah blah.

    I twisted my body away. I just left the mansion. There is no work here anymore.

    I sat in the back seat of the car. I carefully placed a green onion on the seat next to me, leaned back comfortably, and the driver started driving smoothly.

    I’m really worried. Today it was resolved in a good way, but using magic unconsciously is not a good sign. I’m worried that my unconscious mind will use magic whenever I find someone who annoys me. If it’s a severed limb, it’s enough to reattach it with healing magic, but anything more than that is difficult.

    Yumina seems to think of this person as a very mean person, but this person is also a person with completely ordinary sensibilities. There are individual differences in the emotional spectrum, and the outside and inside are different, so such an illusion is created, and when there is a possibility of causing harm to those around you, you start to worry.

    It gives me goosebumps to think what would have happened if just one point had been off. No matter how angry he was, it was irrational to kill him, so he would have stopped at an appropriate line, but the cleanup would have been muddy. If I held on to it and asked for forgiveness, it would have been resolved.

    But if he had listened carefully from the beginning, this wouldn’t have happened. There is no need to take responsibility since it has already happened, but it is true that it is annoying. Now that I’m a high school student, it’s going to get worse and not get better just because I’m older. The future is bleak.

    The fundamental thing is his responsibility, but since we can’t do anything about it, I think the next best thing would be to practice being unconscious. Today’s situation is ultimately a problem caused by unconscious excess, so if that excess can be resolved and controlled, it can be prevented.

    But how do you do that? When I think unconsciously, the thing that immediately comes to mind is meditation. Should I do some meditation… … . I heard that meditation is a good way to improve productivity, so I tried it in my past life, but it didn’t have much success. I don’t think it will change now. In the Silicon Valley-style methodology, there are drugs other than meditation, but I don’t necessarily want to be weak.

    It’s a way to control the unconscious… … .

    Umm.

    uh… … .

    Get some psychological counseling… … ?

    When I think about it again, I don’t think today’s situation occurred because of unconsciousness. Inside humans, the unconscious has more influence than the conscious, but even so, today’s situation is a problem that arose in the realm of consciousness, not the unconscious.

    It’s probably because I’ve been neglecting my magic practice. That’s what happened because I experienced that magic becomes easier over time even if you don’t do anything. If magic is a function of the mind, then the growth of adolescence is accompanied by the growth of the brain, so it is simply a result of hardware capabilities increasing over time. Thanks to this, I was more focused on duplicating items rather than practicing magic. Class C items cannot be copied due to fundamental problems.

    Now that I think about it, if I can use magic unconsciously, does that mean I can now do absurd things like holding a book with magic and concentrating on reading? Can you focus on the contents of a book without losing the magic you were consciously using and dropping the book on your face? Is that so? Wow, nice. I should read a book at home.

    urged the driver.

    “So you kissed me?!”

    “Not a kiss, but a pout.”

    I had no intention of saying anything. But even after all four of us moved our belongings to the house where we would live together, the aftereffects of the kiss remained, which was a problem. Every time he came out of the living room, Do Yoo-geon ran away to his room, and Yumina started interrogating him. There was no reason to hide it.

    “You said you did it!”

    Laplace added in a calm voice, unlike Yumina who was making a fuss.

    “But isn’t it right to distinguish between the two?”

    “That’s what I said.”

    “You can’t be so nonchalant!”

    “What did I do?”

    “My innocence was stolen!”

    That’s a grand expression.

    “What’s so great about kissing someone once? The meaning given to physical contact comes from social and cultural consensus, not from inevitable truth.”

    After finishing speaking, I took a sip of my cappuccino. It’s nice because it’s hot. It’s better when someone else rides it.

    Laplace giggled.

    “No, no, no, it can’t be like this. A little more, a little more….”

    Yumina fidgeted as she looked in this direction, then glanced back at Laplace. Laplace flinched under the intense gaze.

    “There’s more, tell me!”

    “…Me? Me?”

    “okay!”

    “suddenly……?”

    That’s right. Even with the real power taken away, there are many things to wish for.

    Still, Laplace worked hard despite Yumina’s pressure, wondering if he had lost power for no reason.

    “To put it bluntly, since this is my first experience, shouldn’t my reaction be a little more loving?”

    “First experience……!”

    Yumina collapsed on her own. No answer.

    “Is this a lovely reaction? That may be true, but I’m lovely enough as is. What else can I add?”

    Laplace, who had no tolerance for such words, opened his mouth. Yumina said she heard it often, but no longer had any reaction.

    There was silence.

    No, it’s a bit embarrassing to be quiet at this time.

    I moved my hand to drink the cappuccino. When I picked it up, the glass was empty.

    oh.

    You drank it all. I put down my coffee cup. The glass made a clattering sound as it touched the saucer.

    There was silence again.

    He tapped Yumina, who was pretending to fall down, with his foot. It’s awkward, don’t just be alone, try something. Yumina had no reaction. It’s so irresponsible to let friends of friends talk and then get left out of it. I poked him hard, but he just flinched and didn’t want to get up.

    I stood up while touching my empty coffee cup.

    “I have to get up early because I have to swear in as a freshman representative at the entrance ceremony tomorrow, so I’ll sleep first.”

    Laplace, who was nibbling on a cookie, looked up and nodded.

    returned to the room.

    I should play a game.
