episode_0231

After completing Victor’s training, the intensity of my training has increased beyond comparison.

My body, exhausted from rigorous training, demanded rest whenever I had the chance.

I was nodding off at my desk when I came to my senses thanks to Shine’s voice.

“Jeff.”

“Ugh, yeah!”

“If you’re sleepy, go to the sofa and sleep.”

“I’m not sleepy!”

I shook my head in response to Shine’s words.

I was sleepy, but I couldn’t sleep right now.

Because I had to do the homework assigned by school.

Shine watched me like that without saying anything.

In my slowly shaking gaze, the workbook approaches and moves away repeatedly.

I was still asleep.

But my hands didn’t stop, so if I keep this up, I’ll be able to finish all my homework someday.

“Jeff.”

“Yeah. I wasn’t asleep!”

“Do I really have to train so hard?”

I blinked at Shine’s words and put down my pen.

“Yeah. So I can help Amy.”

Shine pouted at my answer.

“Jeff only likes Amy?”

jealousy.

I could feel Shine’s cute jealousy.

A small smile formed on her face at the sight of her emotions approaching me without any hiding.

“I like shine too.”

Shine’s eyes widened at my answer and she turned her head away.

I sat at my desk, fighting against sleepiness, but I was eventually able to finish all my homework.

“Done!”

I jumped up from my seat with my arms outstretched in a refreshing sense of liberation.

I also finished comparing the answers with Shine to make sure there were no mistakes.

Now it was really over.

I dragged my tired body to the refrigerator and took out a cool green juice and drank it.

The bittersweet taste was now quite edible.

“Aren’t you developing your skills anymore?”

“Um…”

I nodded while drinking the green juice.

Even training with Victor took up a lot of time and energy, so there was no time to develop my abilities.

***

“Jeff.”

“Net!”

I answered Victor’s words with shining eyes.

Today was the day he had been waiting and waiting for to learn his skills.

Victor said.

First of all, you have to build a strong body.

I followed his instructions and ate everything that was good for my body.

Amy’s bitter green juice, the tomato that Lane asked her to eat instead, and the banana that Shine put in and out of her mouth.

One glass of cola a day, chocolate once every two days.

Besides that, I didn’t eat any snacks.

A month passed like that.

To be honest, I secretly ate chocolate and sweets, but at least I didn’t leave any vegetables behind.

It was a secret to Victor.

“There is only one technique I will teach you.”

“One? Just one?”

“Yeah.”

Isn’t one too few?

But Victor continued, as if that was enough.

“I’ll show you just once.”

Dismissal-

As Victor finished speaking, a blue current gathered in front of him.

As I blankly stared at the sight, I realized something strange.

Victor wasn’t drawing powers from his body.

Around him, a blue current was generated from nowhere and gathered in front of him.

As I stood there with my mouth open in a daze at the unnatural sight, I could feel the tips of my fingers starting to tingle.

Phagejik-

A blue current starts to writhe from the tip of his raised finger and flies towards Victor.

A situation where the ability is out of my control and moves as it pleases.

Victor said, looking at my bewildered look.

“Puts all the electricity around you under your control. Since it is energy drawn from outside, not from your body, it is a technique that does not put any burden on your body at all.”

“My, my ability…”

“Concentrate and break the flow.”

I focused on the flow leaving my body, as Victor had said.

Flow was the path through which power flowed.

And now, another path was open in my body.

The path opened so naturally, as if it had always existed, without any sense of discomfort, so I didn’t notice the strength leaving my body.

“Even if you are a lightning type user, you cannot be free from this technique.”

As Victor spoke, the speed at which his strength was draining increased.

I followed his words calmly and without panicking.

Since Victor had taught me how to control the flow, it was easy to block the newly created path.

When the flow is blocked, the power that was escaping through it scatters in all directions as if hitting a wall.

The faint light that was escaping from my fingers fades away.

Victor looked at me in confusion and said,

“Brain Mastery. The name of the skill you will learn in the future.”

“Brain, brain…”

Although the name sounded bad, I didn’t complain because I was an actor.

As I covered my mouth with both hands and looked at him in surprise, Victor spoke while scattering the blue orbs that had gathered in front of me.

Phagejik-

As I was blankly staring at the blue afterimage disappearing into the air, Victor spoke.

“It won’t be difficult for you.”

“Me, what about me?”

Victor nodded to my question and said,

“Jeff. When you normally use your abilities, what do you think about when you use them?”

“Uh… I’ll change that tingling guy into a crackling guy and make him listen to me.”

As I spoke, I looked at Victor’s expression.

Previously, in order to develop my abilities, I had others freeze the feelings and images that came to mind when I used my abilities.

Most of them tilted their heads as if they couldn’t understand, but Victor reacted differently.

“I think I caught the image. So what does that tingling guy look like?”

“Tingling tingling…”

I kept my mouth shut at Victor’s words.

I haven’t thought about it that far ahead, so I don’t have a specific image.

The tingling sensation in my head was a jellyfish-like, swaying thing.

Even that shape was not consistent.

“This is the first training to master the brain. Make the image of the tingling inside you into the most powerful thing you can imagine.”

As Victor said, I started training to perfect the image of tingling.

“Don’t deny the brainwashing you’ve created, and always think of yourself as the strongest. That arrogance will create another power for you.”

What is the most powerful image I can imagine?

Amy’s honey chest? Or her butt popping?

I sat there and cried.

The moment I thought of Amy, her thoughts wouldn’t leave my head.

Amy was gorgeous, pretty, and strong, perfect in every way.

The image of him walking towards the enemy, wearing a white robe like a white mane, will never leave my mind.

The shape of the tingling sensation was changing.

Just as the tingling sensation began to reach a certain level, Victor passed me and said.

“The image of the brain should be made to not exist in reality.”

“Oh my… Why?”

“If the Brain Emperor’s motif is defeated in battle or weakened by illness, the Brain Emperor you imagined will also be affected.”

I quickly shook my head at his words.

But once an image comes to mind, it cannot be easily changed.

The blurry shape had become Amy’s sloppy figure.

“Victor… The brainchild of Amy has become a person.”

“Keep thinking about something strong enough to make Amy forget. Something from your favorite anime or game is fine.”

I kept thinking about Victor’s words.

Strong, very strong. Very strong.

Think of something big.

A long, hanging tail, muscular legs, and arms with sharp claws.

And a large mouth with sharp teeth.

I thought of a dinosaur.

The dinosaur I created roared loudly and rushed at Amy.

Amy extended her fist at the movement of a massive mass that shook the earth’s axis.

The white light that extended from her hand blew away the dinosaur’s upper body in one blow and disappeared.

“Gasp…”

The Amy inside me took down the dinosaur.

The blurry, tingling appearance has changed to look a little more like Amy.

“Amy beat the dinosaur…”

I spoke again with a tearful face.

Then Victor, who had been observing my expression, let out a big sigh.

“Dinosaur?”

“Yes… Amy’s fist obliterated the dinosaur’s upper body.”

“Think of something else.”

I started to imagine something else, as he said.

This time it was a giant robot.

A giant robot that looked at least several dozen meters tall appeared in my mind.

Amy glared at it and then punched it again.

Another burst of white light.

Amy’s powerful attack blew a hole through the robot’s chest.

KookooKookoo – The robot falls down.

This time, Amy won again.

“Amy broke the robot…”

“Think of something else. Something that will never give up.”

Something that never gives up. Something that is strong yet shining.

I could picture a witch in Victor’s words.

I felt like I could hear cheerful laughter in my ears.

A witch with long, luscious, ash-colored hair appears in thin air.

She looked around and took out a pretty magic wand in her hand.

The witch who raised her wand while standing in the air was the main character from [The Little Witch’s Great Adventure]. It was Lucy.

The stars engraved in her eyes began to shine, and several layers of magic circles appeared in front of Lucy’s body.

Amy also moved her body at the sight of him preparing to fight right away.

Amy walked away slowly with an arrogant expression, and a white aura burst out from behind her.

“Oh, no!”

When I saw the two people about to fight, I shouted loudly.

I couldn’t let my favorite people fight each other.

The image that came to my mind suddenly became distorted and the two figures began to blend together.

Amy’s appearance was maintained, but Lucy’s image was added to her body.

Big Amy’s height has shrunk, and she has the appearance of a young girl, with star patterns engraved in her eyes.

A large cone-shaped hat was placed on her head, and a black magical cloak was wrapped around her back.

“Gasp…”

Before I knew it, the perfectly formed jjiritjirit was smiling at me.

The image of the brain inside me was fixed.

In the form of little witch Amy.

“Are you done?”

I bit my lip and looked around at Victor’s question.

He told me to use something that doesn’t exist in reality as an image of the brain, but it seemed like I wouldn’t be able to keep my word.

No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t help but picture Amy.

Amy was such an important person in my life.

A person you can trust and rely on, someone stronger than anyone else.

That was the image of Amy inside me.

When imagining the strongest being, Amy couldn’t be left out.

“I think it’s finished…”

Victor nodded at my answer and said,

“Then, think of the brain you imagined and create it.”

“Ugh, what size would be good…?”

“It doesn’t matter if it’s small.”

I opened both hands and focused electricity on them at Victor’s words.

Pajijik – A faint blue light began to wrap around his arm and gather on his palm.

Boom-!

It was in the shape of a round sphere, but at some point it suddenly lit up and took the shape of a little witch.

Little Witch Amy looked up at Victor with a confident expression.

“Is this your brain?”

“No…”

I answered Victor’s question with my head bowed.
