“Jeff. You should eat cucumber and broccoli too.”

“Ugh…”

I frowned at Amy’s words.

The salad on the small plate was edible, but the broccoli and cucumber were absolutely inedible.

Lane ran away as soon as Amy started preparing the salad.

“Jeff.”

“Ugh…”

“Don’t you like eating broccoli?”

“Yeah.”

“Should I eat it for you?”

“Really?”

I asked back with sparkling eyes at Shine’s suggestion.

“Jeff. Shine.”

But right away, Amy’s voice is heard.

Shine shook her head with an awkward smile.

“Amy told me not to do it.”

I pout and sigh.

“Jeff. You can’t be picky.”

Amy was right.

Picky eating is bad.

I squeezed my eyes shut and stuffed the cucumber and broccoli into my mouth.

“Ugh…”

The taste was the worst.

But it didn’t end there.

If it were a normal day, I would usually finish all the snacks and then have a cold glass of cola.

“Drink.”

Ta-da! A mug filled with green liquid appears with a special sound effect.

The rabbit decorated on the outside seemed to be crying.

“Amy. Rabbits don’t like green juice?”

“Rabbits like grass better.”

It was Shine who answered my question.

I closed my eyes tightly at her words and took a sip of the green juice.

A sticky liquid that flows down the throat.

I didn’t like either the texture or the flavor.

After finishing the worst snack time, I immediately laid down on the bed.

I wasn’t feeling well because I ate different food than usual.

My stomach feels rumbling.

Shine came to me as I lay there weakly.

“Is it that tasteless?”

“Yeah…”

Shine looked down at me, who was lying there helplessly, and smiled.

“Sorry Jeff. There’s nothing I can do to help you.”

I made a sad face.

I knew that Amy wasn’t feeding me bad food out of spite.

But what can we do?

In his young mind, he was building up resentment towards Amy for taking away his delicious food.

After snack time, it was massage time.

Amy came over to me as I was lying on the bed.

Shine also lay down next to me, waiting for Amy’s touch.

“Amy.”

“Huh?”

“How long should I eat this?”

“Until you pass all the tests?”

I hugged my pillow and buried my face in it.

Amy laughed quietly at my actions.

“Did you work hard today?”

“Yes.”

“Yeah.”

“Wasn’t it hard?”

“Yes, it was worth it.”

“Yeah.”

“I see.”

A pleasant touch continues.

Her face relaxed as hands gently pressed her shoulders, back, and waist, and an indecipherable moan escaped her lips.

“Jeff collapsed today.”

Amy’s hands stop at Shine’s words.

Amy pressed my back and asked back.

“What does that mean?”

“While receiving training…”

I began to briefly explain what had happened at the training ground.

The more I explained, the more embarrassed I became at my foolish actions.

What kind of idiot in the world would think of shocking his own heart?

If it weren’t for the resistance that the higher ability users possessed, it would have been clear that they would have been in great danger.

“You’re not hurt, are you?”

“Yes. Rabin said there was no problem. ”

Amy let out a big sigh at my words.

I felt uneasy about worrying Amy.

“There’s nothing wrong with Shine, right?”

“Yeah. It’s fun because they’re all weak.”

Shine seemed to really like the training she was doing.

I felt envious of that kind of shine.

I wanted to finish training with Victor quickly and take the test.

The next morning.

Today, as usual, I head to the training ground.

As I thought about what happened yesterday, I decided I would never do something stupid like that again.

“Jeff’s. Shine’s.”

“What is this?”

Before entering the training grounds, Amy handed Shine and me a small bag.

It was a dinosaur-shaped bag, and Shiningon was a shark-shaped bag.

“I packed a lunch box.”

“Yes…?”

“Don’t go to the restaurant and eat that.”

I mumbled while holding the bag in my arms.

This morning, I was in a bad mood because I ate a lot of tasteless cucumbers instead of delicious pork cutlet.

Amy’s words meant that for lunch, instead of pork cutlet, we should eat a tasteless salad.

I immediately checked the lunch box inside my bag.

The lunch box, which was obviously prepared with me in mind, was covered in dinosaur pictures.

If it were a normal day, I would have been touched by such a small consideration, but the contents of the lunch box were enough to take away that feeling.

Lettuce, carrots, cucumber, broccoli.

A lunch box filled with lots of fresh vegetables seemed like something rabbits would like more than people.

The only consolation was that there was a generous amount of chicken breast.

“Ugh…”

I could barely hold back the tears that were welling up.

Amy smiled at me like that and patted my head.

“Are you touched?”

Amy was teasing me in some way.

I wasn’t the type of person to give up because of something like that.

I shook my head and wiped my eyes.

“I’ll eat well!”

I shouted loudly and stepped into the training ground.

The small dinosaur bag hanging on his back shook slightly.

“See you later, Shine!”

“Yeah.”

After saying goodbye to Shine, I immediately ran towards where Victor was.

Victor was still sitting there yesterday.

Looking at the way he yawned so intently, it seemed like he had trouble sleeping last night.

“Victor!”

“Come on in.”

As expected, Victor was kind.

I shook my head as I thought back to what Rain had said and approached Victor.

“I’m sorry about yesterday.”

Victor blinked in confusion at my apology.

Victor, who had been avoiding eye contact and scratching his cheek, opened his mouth with a small sigh.

“No. It was my fault. I shouldn’t have taken my eyes off you even for a moment…”

I sat down next to Victor and put down my dinosaur bag.

Victor’s gaze turned to the bag I was holding.

“What is that?”

“This is the lunch box that Amy prepared.”

“Amy…?”

“Yes.”

Victor seemed interested in my lunch box.

I watched him closely, then took out my lunch box and showed it to him.

“How is it?”

“It looks delicious.”

“Right?”

“It’s a little short on chicken breast, but it’s a well-balanced diet.”

Victor nodded and answered.

I didn’t miss the way Victor’s eyes lit up.

“Hey Victor. Do you have any questions?”

“If you want to trade my meal, I will decline. That is a packed lunch that Amy prepared for you.”

“Oops…”

I kept my mouth shut at Victor’s words.

He was a more thorough man than I thought.

“But I think sharing is a good idea…”

Victor’s voice came out as a small muttering.

He avoided eye contact and watched me closely.

I nodded vigorously.

“Right? I think I’d like tonkatsu.”

“Donkas is a good food.”

An agreement was reached with Victor.

I packed my lunch and put it in my bag.

“Let’s start training!”

That’s how the training started.

Victor lined up the paper cups on the small desk again.

“Do you remember what I told you yesterday?”

“Yes.”

“Even if you have the same ability, the direction of development is bound to be different. The advice I can give you is the least.”

I nodded.

Victor’s advice was always the same.

Rather than teaching direct skills, it only teaches how to apply the skills.

It was entirely up to me to keep it alive.

I immediately raised my skills.

The method of placing a direct load on the body is wrong.

It was clear that my body wouldn’t be able to handle it.

So we had to find another way.

The answer was surprisingly close.

This training was not much different from the ball avoidance training.

I watched Victor’s expression and spread an electric field around my body.

The crackling blue light became clear enough to be seen, encircling me and Victor.

“Now I know.”

Victor took a candy out of his pocket and put it in the cup.

Training has begun.

Victor’s hands move quickly.

Although the blue light was distracting and dizzying, I was confident I could solve the problem with my eyes closed.

The current field I deployed was able to read the movements of any object that entered it.

“What is the answer?”

“Here!”

A blue light flashes from Victor’s hand.

He gave me a candy for getting the answer right.

This time it was apple flavored candy.

I was about to eat the candy right away, but after a moment of hesitation, I put the candy in my pocket.

It was a candy that I couldn’t eat much of anymore.

Save and save until the very end, when you can no longer endure.

I was thinking of taking it out and eating it then.

Once you get the hang of it, training becomes a breeze.

No matter how fast Victor’s hands were, the electric field I deployed read every movement.

The candies in my pocket were increasing.

“It’s too easy to guess.”

“I won’t lose a single one anymore.”

“Um…”

Victor paused for a moment, rubbing his chin and lost in thought.

I looked up at him with a confident expression.

“Okay. Then, do you want to make a bet with me?”

“A bet?”

“I’ll bet all my remaining candy on this problem.”

Victor said this and picked up a large bag of candy.

I swallowed.

There seemed to be well over a hundred candies in that large bag.

“Instead, you bet all the candy you’ve ever received.”

“My candy?”

I counted the number of candies sleeping in my pocket.

It’s a number just over ten.

If you save, you can eat it until tomorrow.

Ten and a hundred matches.

The problem was so easy.

I nodded with shining eyes.

Victor was clearly a good person.

For me, who cannot eat as much delicious candy as I want, I prepared a gift.

It must have been embarrassing to tell him directly, so he chose this method.

Rain, you are wrong.

Victor is a very kind person.

“Like!”

I took all the candy out of my pocket and placed it on the desk.

Victor also placed his bag of candy next to his desk.

“There is no need to say more than one thing.”

Victor said that and started moving his hands.

Phagejik-

A blue light rose up clearly.

At the same time, an abnormality was detected in the current field I had spread out.

“in…”

Victor’s movements were completely unreadable.

Swish swish swish – Hands moving at a speed so fast that it’s invisible to the eye.

Victor looked at me and smiled evilly.
