Chapter Index

    Now I was facing the crisis of my life.

    Lane’s voice sounded like an illusion, saying that Victor was not kind.

    Somehow he said the problem was too easy.

    A game between 10 and 100.

    It was clear that Victor had no intention of just handing me the candy.

    no!

    I opened my eyes wide.

    At this rate, I would have to eat tasteless green juice and cucumber today without even getting 10 candies.

    But there was nothing I could do.

    Victor moves at a speed so fast that it is invisible to the eye.

    And Victor’s blue current pushing away my current field.

    “What is the answer?”

    Victor’s hand stopped.

    At the same time, the blue current that had been bursting out of his hand also disappeared.

    You have to stay calm.

    I took a breath.

    Even if you didn’t see it, it doesn’t mean you can’t guess the correct answer.

    If you try, there’s no way you won’t hit it.

    You have to choose carefully.

    A showdown with the fate of over 100 candies at stake.

    I felt sweat running down my hands.

    “Choose quickly.”

    I looked up at Victor desperately.

    But he looked at the paper cup, avoiding my gaze.

    Rain was right.

    Victor was not kind.

    “This!”

    I shouted loudly and pointed to the cup on the far right.

    Because I somehow had a feeling that that would be the correct answer.

    Victor furrowed his eyebrows at my gesture.

    “Hmm.”

    Victor’s large hand slowly lifting the cup.

    I opened my eyes wide and watched the scene.

    and.

    Dismissal-

    The still widely spread current field reads faint movements.

    My body moved before my head understood.

    The widely spread electricity sent signals to the body, causing it to reach out.

    My hand picked up a large bag of candy.

    Victor’s puzzled gaze lingers on my face.

    I was also confused.

    But that moment didn’t last long.

    I immediately turned around and started running.

    “Heh heh.”

    I looked back while running.

    Victor’s gaze looking at me as if he was speechless.

    There was nothing underneath the cup he lifted.

    I kept running with my eyes tightly shut.

    The bag of candy in her arms shook violently, scattering the candy in all directions.

    It was a shame, but there was no time to pick it up.

    As I was running forward without looking back, I suddenly felt my hair standing on end.

    Something passes by with a large current surrounding it.

    Pitter-patter!

    A light so bright it’s visible to the eye.

    Victor, emitting blue light from his entire body, arrived in front of me.

    “Stop.”

    He spoke calmly.

    “Ugh!”

    I immediately turned around and ran in the opposite direction.

    I was running and stuffing candy into my mouth.

    The sweetness of the candy filling my mouth made me smile, but I didn’t have time to savor the taste right now.

    It’s coming. It’s coming. It’s coming.

    I could tell without even looking.

    Victor was moving.

    A blue line connecting the two in the air showed Victor where to arrive.

    Ppajjik – I stop in my tracks, startled by the sound coming from the air.

    Victor arrived in front of me again this time.

    His hand quickly extends.

    no!

    I reached out my hand in a hurry.

    Pajik- The blue current wrapped around my hand and Victor’s current mixed together, creating a strange flow.

    Information contained in the flow begins to flow in as is.

    And then I realized.

    How Victor applies his abilities and how he moves his body.

    The information that enters my head changes to suit me at a rapid pace.

    I immediately reached behind my back.

    Just like Victor does, he replicates Victor’s movements exactly.

    A faint light shoots out from my hand, extending outwards, marking the point where I will arrive.

    Immediately after, the power is released towards the entire body.

    The field of vision becomes white.

    Victor comes into view, looking embarrassed right in front of me.

    I stuck my tongue out at him.

    Phagec!

    Just before Victor’s hand touched me, my body began to slide at a rapid pace.

    The speed at which it raced through the air like a bolt of blue lightning was exhilarating.

    My skin felt tingly.

    There was no need to keep the power on all the time.

    It only takes a little while.

    Transforms the entire body into lightning-like shapes the moment it is needed to move.

    The ability is then immediately released.

    This was the method of movement used by Victor.

    Since it was my first time using this method, I ended up traveling a longer distance than I expected.

    I stood on top of the large machine and looked down at Victor.

    “You…”

    Victor looked horrified.

    Through his trembling gaze, he sees a girl smiling with a confident expression.

    I exchange glances with Victor in silence.

    Victor, who seemed to have a lot to say, suddenly turned his gaze to the mat where my bag was placed.

    I look at that place too.

    Victor and I both reached out our hands at the same time.

    Phagejik-

    Blue light shoots into the air.

    A light that extends in a straight line.

    I don’t think about who will arrive first.

    The moment I reached out, I was already there.

    It was the same for Victor.

    Blue light emanates from the body and disperses into the air.

    Behind the afterimage of light, Victor’s hand reaches out to me.

    I desperately avoid that hand.

    A hand passing over your head.

    With a victorious smile on my face and my bag in my arms, I immediately reached out to my next goal.

    No, that’s what I thought.

    “Wow!”

    The moment I came to my senses, I was held in Victor’s hand.

    Hanging with his back held still.

    I smiled awkwardly at him, hugging my bag tightly.

    The bag of candy he was holding fell, spilling candy onto the floor.

    “Rice… Shall we eat?”

    I lifted my bag and hid my face.

    Because it was difficult to bear Victor’s terrifying gaze.

    When you press the button in the corner of the dinosaur bag, the dinosaur in the middle opens its mouth wide.

    I pressed the button twice.

    Crackle, crackle – The dinosaur opened its mouth wide and protested to Victor.

    bean!

    A loud bang is felt over the head.

    It was such a shock that tears welled up in my eyes.

    I looked up at Victor, my head in my hands.

    Victor gave me a honey chestnut.

    “Eat and do it again.”

    “Yes…”

    He left the training grounds with me dangling from his hand.

    The restaurant we arrived at with Victor.

    Victor sat me down at the table and brought me the pork cutlet meal I had requested.

    I took out my lunch box from my bag while watching his expression.

    “Exchange it.”

    He nodded silently.

    Victor’s chopsticks moved quickly, swapping the chicken breast and pork cutlet.

    That’s all.

    “Ah!”

    “Why is that?”

    “Change other things too!”

    “I don’t like it.”

    It was a good thing that the chicken breast became a pork cutlet, but I still had a lot of things like cabbage and cucumber left.

    I stabbed the cucumber with a fork while making a sad face.

    While I was eating cucumbers, Amy, Shine, and Rain came into the restaurant together.

    They soon came towards us.

    “What? You two came first?”

    It’s Amy.

    Amy arrived.

    I quickly spread out the cabbage and covered the pork cutlet.

    Because if Amy caught him, he would definitely have the tonkatsu taken away.

    I nodded slowly and looked around.

    I didn’t notice it before, but the inside of the restaurant was empty.

    I checked the time.

    It was a little early to start eating.

    “I guess we’re getting along pretty well?”

    Victor meets Amy’s gaze at her words.

    His amber eyes slowly shake.

    I turned my head away.

    “Does it look like that?”

    “Yeah. But?”

    Amy sat down next to me naturally and took out her lunch box.

    She also maintained the same diet as me and Shine.

    No one sat next to Victor.

    Not to mention Rain, who didn’t seem to get along very well, and Shine never left my side.

    I gave Victor a victorious smile.

    “Go eat some food.”

    As he said that, he snatched a piece of cabbage from me and ate it.

    The cabbage disappearing into his mouth made a pleasant sound.

    I looked at that sight with a dumbfounded expression.

    The cabbage Victor took was the cabbage that was hiding my pork cutlet.

    Now there was no way to hide the tonkatsu.

    I slowly turned my head at the sight of someone watching me.

    There was Amy, looking at me without saying anything.

    I picked up the pork cutlet with trembling hands and brought it to my mouth.

    Amy shook her head.

    I handed the pork cutlet I had brought to my mouth to Lane.

    “Wow! Donkatsu!”

    Rain was excited and ate my tonkatsu.

    Only then did Amy nod.

    “Go first.”

    Victor went out first, carrying the tray.

    I stared at his back as he walked away, then stuffed a tasteless carrot into my mouth.

    Amy put some dry chicken breast from her lunchbox into mine.

    “Enjoy your meal.”

    “Yes…”

    The chicken breast was somewhat edible.

    After finishing the meal, we took a short break.

    Inside the training ground, which has become deserted.

    Shine, Rain and I lay down on a large mat.

    Rain, who had been playing with his mouth wide open as if he was interested in my dinosaur bag, opened his mouth.

    “Jeff.”

    “Yeah.”

    “How was the training?”

    “It was okay.”

    “Did Victor teach you well?”

    “Yeah.”

    I nodded.

    I learned a lot from him, so I guess he taught me well?

    “Really? Victor?”

    “Yeah.”

    Rain frowned in disbelief.

    The dinosaur in her arms also frowned.

    “I can’t believe it.”

    “Really. Victor is a good teacher.”

    I thought about comparing myself to the teachers I have met so far.

    Victor may not have been kind, but he was a decent teacher.

    “I can’t believe it!”

    I jumped up at those words.

    “I’ll show you.”

    “What?”

    “What I learned from Victor.”

    I immediately raised my skills.

    Shine, who had been sleeping on the mat, also seemed interested and sat up.

    “Look carefully.”

    I spread my arms wide.

    I didn’t try it before because there were a lot of people, but it seemed like it would be okay now.

    The blue light extending from the hand began to take over the place to move.

    It stretches out in a straight line and begins to wind wildly around the training ground.

    Immediately after setting the coordinates, the ability was spread throughout the body.

    Phagectic – I moved as the blue current enveloped my entire body.

    Step by step.

    It shoots out at a fast speed as if it were crossing space.

    The blue current left in the air crackled and made noise.

    As the gaze blinks, the location changes several times.

    From the ground to the ceiling, and from the ceiling to the ground again.

    This time in front of the large machine, then next to Victor and Amy, who are sitting and talking.

    Dismissed!

    He paused for a moment and waved at Amy.

    “Huh?”

    Amy’s surprised face was the last thing I saw as I kicked the ground again.

    Phagecic-!

    “Ta-da!”

    Finally, I returned to my original position, placed my hands on my hips and made a confident expression.

    Rain and Shine, who had been blankly watching, clapped their hands and praised me.
