It’s been a week since I started training with Victor.

During this time, I gained a lot of confidence.

Because if you apply the methods you learned from Victor, you can pass almost any training with ease.

I was walking around the training grounds, flashing lights.

Seeing me like that, Victor started reading the book he had brought.

The limitations of a small body have long since disappeared.

If I used my powers, I could go anywhere I wanted at high speed.

It was quite fun.

But the fun only lasts for the first few minutes.

Feeling the proof right away, I returned to Victor’s side and laid down on the mat.

“Are you done playing?”

“Yes.”

Victor, who was reading a book, took a small bookmark out of his pocket and stuck it in the book he was reading.

Victor stood up from his seat and said, putting his book down in the corner.

“We’re about to start the final training.”

“Last?”

“If you pass this training, you will be able to take the test.”

I immediately got up.

Victor took a small bead out of his pocket and showed it to me.

It was a plain, shiny iron ball.

“Take this bead from me.”

Victor said this and threw the marble into the air.

Victor’s powers unfold near a small rotating iron ball.

Dismissed!

A burst of light from thin air.

The iron ball was spinning rapidly, carrying a blue current.

I stared blankly at the beads.

A marble that spins so fast you can’t touch it.

If I touched it, I was sure I would get seriously hurt.

If so, that means use your abilities to take it.

How about that?

“Remember when your powers suddenly went out of whack during the candy-finding training?”

The hint was thrown out.

It’s my job to solve it.

I sat down at Victor’s words.

How do you do it?

The worry didn’t last long.

I immediately raised my skills.

I glanced at Victor’s expression, and he opened the book again as if he didn’t care.

I shot the current straight towards the iron ball.

A blue light flashes and extends in a straight line.

Zzz-! A blue electric current hits the iron ball.

But it didn’t stop.

The rapidly spinning iron ball knocked all my current out of me.

I let out a small sigh.

It seemed like it couldn’t be solved in a simple way.

Continued worries.

Victor’s words were on my mind, but I couldn’t find the answer.

“Victor over there.”

“Yeah.”

“Is it okay if I just steal that bead somehow?”

Victor, who was reading a book, raises his head.

His gaze is turned towards me.

The slightly curved corners of the lips were quite annoying.

It seemed as if he was asking, “Is it possible?”

“If possible.”

“Like.”

I puffed out my cheeks and bowed my head.

I felt like Victor needed a big punishment for looking down on me.

I immediately raised my skills.

The blue lights focused on both arms flashed, showing off their presence.

I immediately spread my arms wide.

Read the flow.

The current starting from Victor’s hand creates a weak current.

Since I was familiar with Victor’s abilities, it was very easy for me to read his flow.

If Victor’s powers were cut off, the iron balls under his control would lose their power and fall to the ground.

I thought so.

I pull with all my might both hands that were stretched out to their limits.

Hands begin to meet, and a blue current forms between them.

Victor, who was reading a book, only then turns his gaze to me.

But it was too late.

My body was already taking the next step.

Exactly-

match!

Just before clapping, a faint sound was heard first.

“Oh.”

Nothing happened.

I rubbed my cold palms against my stomach and examined the iron balls.

The marbles were still spinning.

The blue current that had been wrapped around his hand had long since disappeared.

The flow is interrupted.

“EMP technology is a very useful way to use abilities. But I thought only you could use it?”

Only then was I able to examine Victor’s right hand.

A slightly raised hand.

A faint electric current surged from his straightened fingers.

Yes, that’s right.

If it’s an ability of the same lineage, it means that just as I can use Victor’s skills, Victor can also use the same skills as me.

I sat down on the floor with a blank expression.

I’m screwed!

“But it’s not a completely wrong way. Think about it carefully.”

Victor said that and started to concentrate on his book again.

I stared at Victor’s mischievous face for a long time.

I spend my time sitting like that.

It may seem like I’m having a boring time, but my head is spinning so fast it’s steaming.

Use your head. You’ll get smarter.

I held my head and cried for a while.

Nothing came to mind.

I was a fool.

As I was panting for breath with my face bright red, Victor handed me a small bottle of water.

“There is a removal.”

I turned my back on Victor and reached for my bag.

Inside the bag was a dinosaur water bottle that Amy had prepared.

I threw away all the green juice I prepared in the morning.

All that remains here is pure water.

So, that meant you could drink it without any hesitation.

As I pushed the dinosaur’s head back, a small straw shot up.

I drank the water gulp down.

There was a faint green juice scent coming from the water, but it wasn’t bad enough to make it undrinkable.

The cool temperature of the water begins to bring down the heat that has built up in your head.

After all, it was right to think calmly.

I looked at Victor calmly.

A faint light started from his hand and was directed at the iron ball.

If only I could break that flow…

flow…?

I stretched out my hand as if possessed.

I could hear Victor’s words in my head.

That’s not to say it’s a completely wrong method.

A reminder to think back to candy-finding training.

Only then did I understand what Victor was saying.

In his candy-finding training, Victor did not use any EMP-type technology.

It just twisted the flow.

I could tell now.

A faint light rises from the outstretched hand.

The current fired toward the bead mimicked Victor’s flow.

The movement of current changes.

Intertwined with the abilities that Victor had unleashed, he was able to perfectly recreate his form.

Victor, who was reading a book, suddenly put it down.

He was looking at me.

Abilities linked to beads.

I too, like Victor, have gained control over the marbles.

I immediately twisted the flow.

The blue current, imitating Victor’s flow, moved roughly and swallowed the marble.

Then he starts to push out Victor’s current.

I immediately pulled the bead towards me.

The rapidly spinning marble stops spinning and flies towards me, landing in my hand.

“Pass.”

Victor nodded and picked up the book again.

I held the beads in my hands with trembling hands.

Passed the training.

This means that you can now take the test.

I was very smart.

“Wow!”

I wanted to share this joy with Shine.

I immediately flew towards the place where Shine was training.

Phagecic-!

***

Lunch that day.

Everyone gathered at the restaurant except Victor, who left first because he had something to do.

“Is training over already?”

“Yes!”

I showed Amy the iron ball I had kept in my pocket and shouted proudly.

“Please let me take the test!”

Amy took the iron ball from me and smiled awkwardly.

“Um…”

“Can I see you today?”

“Today seems like it’ll be tough. It’s the day the test site is under construction.”

“Construction?”

“Yeah.”

I nodded, recalling the scene in the testing room.

There was no way construction on such a large site could be completed quickly.

I swung my short legs back and forth and ate the tasteless cucumber.

“Jeff! Congratulations!”

Rain was very happy to hear that I finished my training and congratulated me.

“Thank you, Rain.”

“Congratulations to you too, Jeff.”

Shine also clung to me as if she couldn’t give up and rubbed her body against mine.

He said this while gently pushing away Shine, who was celebrating a little too passionately.

“Now I can train with Shine too.”

“Yeah. I’ll look forward to it.”

I smiled as I imagined myself training with Shine.

Shine also smiled brightly and hugged my waist tightly.

Amy was fiddling with her phone.

Rain’s gaze was fixed on me and Shine.

As I looked into Rain’s sparkling eyes, I immediately raised my abilities.

A faint light wraps around my fingers.

The hand that was immediately extended faithfully carried out my command.

A bunch of tasteless cucumbers are picked up and dropped onto Lane’s plate.

The chopsticks are retrieved again and catch the hamburger steak that Lane cut and bring it to me.

All this happened in the blink of an eye.

I immediately stuffed the hamburger steak into my mouth.

I was happy.

“I’ll wake up first!”

After I finished eating my lunch box, I immediately got up from my seat.

“Ouch! Wait a minute!”

Shine comes naturally when I wake up.

Rain, who was looking at us like that, quickly grabbed the chopsticks in his hand.

Lane hurriedly shoves food into his mouth as if he wants to go together.

“Oh no!”

Rain discovers it.

The reality is that your hamburger steak has turned into a cucumber.

I left the restaurant in a hurry.

“Amy! My hamburger turned into a cucumber!”

A small laugh escaped my lips at the sound of Rain’s scream coming from behind me.

Shine, who had been following along well, suddenly stopped walking and said.

“Jeff.”

“Yeah.”

“Picky eating is bad.”

“…Have you seen it?”

“Yeah.”

“Keep it a secret from Amy.”

A cold sweat runs down my back as I hear Shine say that she saw what I did.

“What should I do?”

Shine starts laughing playfully.

Her eyes begin to glow dangerously.

“Should I keep it a secret?”

I swallowed dry saliva and nodded.

“Okay. But you have to do me a favor too.”

“… What would you like to ask?”

“Secret~”

Shine’s sinister smile gave me goosebumps.

I smiled awkwardly, sweeping my arms down.

“Yeah…”

“Let’s go.”

Shine reached out to me as I stopped and went ahead of me.

Shine grabbed my hand.

I followed her blankly to the training grounds.

Contrary to expectations that he would make a strange request, Shine said nothing.

I was just spending my time normally.

But the more I did that, the more anxious I became.

Why are you taking so long to ask me such a strange favor?

When I finish training, when I do yoga with Amy, when I do my nails with Amy, when I do my skin care with Amy.

Shine didn’t say anything.

“Jeff. Why are you shaking so much?”

“It’s nothing…”

Rain asked curiously, but I couldn’t answer.
