I never knew that ball games could be so difficult.

“Ugh!”

I kicked the ground and screamed loudly.

To catch the bright red ball floating in the air.

Faster than anyone else, with increased abilities.

But time goes back.

The body that had been floating in the air once again landed on the ground.

My center of gravity collapses and my breathing becomes unsteady.

I fell to the ground, of course, and rolled around on the soft grass.

“Jeff!”

As I fell to the floor, Shine came towards me with a worried expression on her face.

“The 6th 6 seconds are over.”

I lay face down and chewed the grass.

The grass that was tangled in his small hands was torn apart with a rustling sound.

You can never win!

Ferman’s ability was so perfect that it was hard to believe that he could win.

His ability to counter even Jeff Spirise, whom I had used before, completely fooled me.

“Would you like to start again?”

Ferman said with a smile.

I gritted my teeth as I looked at his mischievous smile.

An unsolvable problem lies ahead.

I feel suffocated. I want to cry.

I wanted to scream.

But I get up again.

Because Shine didn’t give up.

“Okay. Is it Shine’s turn now?”

“Jeff, wait. I’ll definitely get the ball.”

“Yeah…”

I sat down on the lawn, breathing heavily.

There was a lot of grass on my butt, but I didn’t care.

A situation that has been repeated several times already.

Even if the grass had been covered a little more, it wouldn’t have made a difference.

“Let’s get started.”

As Shine, who was standing, nodded and spoke, Ferman placed his hand on the watch.

Time begins to repeat itself.

Another time line, that I did not recognize, was formed by Ferman and Scheinman, and it repeated 6 times.

Of these, only one timeline is recognizable.

As soon as it started, Shine started running.

Shine shot forward with a small footstep and reached out straight for Perman’s ball.

But Ferman acted as if he knew Shine’s movements.

“Linear and monotonous.”

As Ferman muttered while dodging Shine’s attacks, Shine bit his teeth hard.

Her expression hardened, and she immediately raised her power.

ability.

therefore.

ability.

A beeping sound similar to tinnitus is heard.

I stared at Shine with my mouth open in a daze.

Slow movements continue.

Shine reaching out for the ball.

Ferman standing there blankly.

But just before Shine’s hand touched the ball.

Ferman started to move.

Ferman, who dodged Shine’s hand with a smooth movement like flowing water, quickly stepped back and spoke to Shine.

“Shine. The 6th 6 seconds is over.”

“Again!”

Shine screamed and started stomping on the grass.

He looked like a child who was getting irritated when things didn’t work out the way he wanted.

“Sorry Jeff.”

She soon calmed down and apologized to me.

“No, it’s okay!”

I shook my head and answered.

Can’t win.

As the fight continued, I was able to understand the terrifying power of Perman’s ability.

6 seconds of repeating 6 times.

The opponent who entered Ferman’s time was able to recognize the time line going back with him.

After repeating this six times for six seconds, Ferman chooses the best time among them.

Then it will soon become reality.

It wasn’t without its weaknesses.

The opponents he can use his abilities against are limited.

If external factors intervene, Permanent Time is fixed to that time zone.

“Jeff, you want to try again?”

“Yes!”

I answered forcefully and got up again.

The game started a little after lunchtime, but the sun was setting now.

Like the setting sun, my confidence also began to decline.

The initial energetic attitude had softened considerably, and the mindset that had started out as play had changed a little.

Pajik- Focus on the tingling sensation at your fingertips.

You have to be sincere to win.

sincerity.

It further enhances your abilities.

The field of vision becomes white, and a blue electric field curtain spreads around the surrounding area.

The current field tells me everything that happens here.

It analyzes each of Ferman’s movements to enable prediction of his next move.

“You have good eyes.”

“Because we have to win!”

“Do you want a donut company that much?”

“Yes!”

It started.

As soon as I heard the tick of the clock, I kicked the ground.

The world is elongated.

The surrounding scenery becomes a single line and disappears from my sight.

In the midst of such changed gazes, the only one who maintained his original form was Ferman.

Ferman began to react to my movements, which were shot in a straight line.

A hand stretched out toward a bright red ball.

Just before we touched, Ferman’s movements began to register in my head.

The body wrapped in blue current reacted immediately.

Faster than you think, faster than your brain gives orders.

The body reacts.

The electrical signals shot out from the current field spread around me made my body move to the next step.

The movement of the ball caught my eye.

The moment he realized that, Perman’s body became blurry for a moment.

It started.

In the repeating time, Ferman is free.

His time is not the same as mine.

Sometimes slow, sometimes fast.

Phagec!

A wild current bursts out.

A twist in the forced flow.

The joints in your body begin to misalign in strange ways.

But that’s okay.

Thanks to Rain’s training and Amy’s yoga, her softened body was able to follow those forced movements.

A body twisted in the air moves its legs.

Short legs, but long enough to reach Perman’s hand.

The rotating body provides power to the legs.

A gaze that spins around as if floating in the air.

A look of confusion appears on Ferman’s face.

Percussion – A small sensation is felt in the tips of the toes.

He couldn’t reach the ball, but his leg touched Ferman’s arm.

No, it would be more accurate to say it just passed by.

A gaze entangled in the air.

I gave a twisted smile to Ferman, who was looking at me.

The sound of a heart beating wildly is loud.

In fast-moving situations, all surrounding sounds are buried and nothing can be heard.

The only sound I can hear is the sound of my and Shine’s heartbeats.

Shine’s heartbeat also begins to get rough, just like mine.

Thump, thump. I reach out again to the sound in my ears.

A broken arm and a bright red ball floating in the air.

The body begins to move once again in line with the hand extended in the direction of nothing.

Movement in the air.

How to use the powers Victor taught you.

bang!

Light burst out and engulfed my body.

I move towards the next direction with that light.

From empty space to empty space.

My body escaped from Perman’s gaze.

A place that suddenly changed.

My hand naturally reached out to the ball.

Got it!

The moment I thought that, the ball disappeared.

“Ah!”

I opened my mouth and screamed in intense regret.

Concentration is scattered.

The sound of a strong electric current engulfing the surroundings follows later.

Kwarrung!

How many seconds have passed?

2 seconds? 1 second?

There was no time to do this.

The body floating in the air falls to the ground.

I curled up and spun around like a cat, dispersing the shock from my body.

Land softly, placing your hands on the ground.

A faint tremor transmitted through the floor.

I caught the flow and kicked the ground again.

Run and catch it.

The more I used my powers, the more I felt like something strange was taking hold in my head.

Regardless of the outcome, feelings of joy begin to rise.

yap!

yap!

yap!

A similar situation as before is repeated.

He reached out and Ferman avoided it.

He reached out, and Ferman dodged again.

Click-

The sound of a clock ticking in my ears.

Time goes back.

The first 6 seconds are over.

I immediately braced myself for shock.

Hold your breath, stop moving.

But the misaligned center of gravity caused my body to sway as it stood in the time that had passed.

The hidden ones did not disperse.

I straightened my staggering body and kicked the ground again.

Use of abilities starting from zero.

Although it took a lot of time to warm up before using the ability, as time with Ferman increased, that time was decreasing.

Run forward and spread your hands wide.

The strong electric current that gathered at the tips of both hands made my hands tingle.

Crack!

A powerfully swung arm.

Hands interlock and a strong impact spreads out in all directions.

Abilities grow the more you use them.

I could think of one more application of this technique.

Control the speed.

A flow with an arbitrarily low wavelength.

A slowly flowing blue current begins to cover the surroundings.

It takes at least one second to reach Ferman.

I immediately took action.

Pot-!

A faint blue current ripples through the ground where it was struck.

This time, clap again from the opposite side.

match!

This time a little faster.

Hit the ground again.

Paat-!

Don’t think deeply.

I’m just giving it my all right now.

Clap-! Clap-! Clap-!

A loud clap is heard several times.

The stopping speed is getting shorter and shorter.

The frequency of repeated clapping sounds also becomes shorter.

That took 3 seconds.

A look of confusion appears on Ferman’s face.

This time I was sure of victory.

“Hey!”

A twist of clouds extending from all directions.

Gifts prepared just for Ferman poured in one after another.

This time, for real.

This time, for real!

bang!

The rough ground is turned upside down.

My ankle feels numb because I put too much force into it.

The body, shot at a speed incomparable to before, moves forward as if aiming for the ball that Ferman is holding.

My gaze was fixed on the bright red ball.

Soft ball!

Ferman, who had been looking embarrassed, suddenly started to laugh and move.

Time around you suddenly slows down.

No, it would be more correct to say that Perman’s time has accelerated.

He threw the ball he was holding in his hand with all his might.

The bright red ball, shot quickly, flies towards the center of the garden.

I looked dumbfounded at his sudden behavior.

And then, my ability hit Perman’s body directly.

Ferman’s legs are released.

My shoulders slump.

His body, which had been standing firm, began to fall down without strength.

But his eyes did not lose their light.

I somehow found the gazes that looked at me with admiration annoying.

I immediately turned around and moved in the direction the bright red ball was flying.

How many seconds have passed?

How much time is left?

The ball’s speed did not decrease.

But I’m faster.

A body that runs quickly cuts through the wind.

The grass that bloomed along my path was torn to pieces, leaving behind black, soot-filled marks.

Just before my outstretched hand touched the ball, time began to turn back.

Now, I was starting to get annoyed by the familiar feeling.

“Ahhh!! Cool!”

The moment I shouted with all my might, filled with annoyance, my breathing became ragged and I let out a cough.

“The second 6 seconds are over.”

I sat on the floor listening to Ferman’s words.

“Jeff?”

“Huh.”

He looked at me, bewildered by my sudden behavior.

He turned his head away, avoiding Perman’s gaze.

“Are you giving up?”

I kept my mouth shut without answering.

I thought it was so unreasonable.

Click- click-

Time flows without stopping.

So I wasted four more chances in vain.

The repeated time flows normally.

“The 6th 6 seconds are over.”

A body that stands up again.

I told Ferman right away.

“Grandpa!”

“Yeah, Jeff. Are you giving up?”

“No. I have a question.”

“Okay, feel free to ask.”

“Can I use everything around me?”

I looked around and asked him.

Ferman also followed my gaze and looked around as he answered.

“That’s okay too.”

I nodded and smiled.

“There is no changing the words.”

“This old man never says two things with his mouth.”

Ferman answered with a confident expression.

I told Shine right away.

“Shine. I’ll do it this time too. Is that okay?”

“Yeah. I’m fine.”

Shine nodded and stepped back a little further.

This time I turned my gaze towards Rain.

She was looking at me while climbing onto Chuchuwi.

“Rain!”

“Yeah!”

“I want to see dark clouds!”

“Rain clouds?”

“Yeah!”

Rain looked puzzled at my request.

“Please!”

“It’s not difficult. What are you going to do?”

As she said this, she raised both hands to the sky.

Kururung-

Dark clouds begin to gather in the sunset sky.

At the same time, I could feel my whole body becoming more sensitive.

The dark clouds that Rain had summoned began to completely surround the castle.

The surroundings have changed so that not a single ray of sunlight can reach them.

bang!

The surroundings brighten with a harsh sound heard from the sky.

The hair that had been calmly settled down began to rise and swell.
