“uh. It’s okay, this feels good.”

-I give you just one bite, and you eat it all by yourself.

“I feel good?”

“okay.”

At least this is because I have ‘that’, otherwise I would have looked unsightly.

I’m so glad this item came to me.

‘At this level, I think I’ll be able to train my mind every time I use my abilities.’

It seemed that an environment in which mental immunity could be maintained automatically, unintentionally, had been completed.

It will be very difficult to resist this urge in the future.

“that’s interesting. My vitality was drained. “My skin is so dull that I can’t use it anymore?”

Shine looked at the corpse of the monster that had drained all of its strength, as if it was fascinating.

-It’s still immature, so it left behind a corpse, but when it becomes proficient, it will turn into powder and disappear.

Damon said it wasn’t right that he still had some remaining vitality left.

“Isn’t this enough to suck almost everything?”

-I’m not delicate in handling my power!

“It’s my first time. first.”

-Even if it’s your first time! Handle it more delicately! How sensitive is this ability, but how can you use it so ignorantly? you have no talent

I shrugged my shoulders at Damon’s cold assessment and spoke to the butcher who was looking at us from afar.

“I’m sorry for interrupting your work.”

“uh… Are you finished now?”

“yes. It’s done. “What’s left over there is trash, so please dispose of it.”

When I took out an appropriate tip and gave it to him, the butcher’s expression brightened and he spoke confidently.

“Please leave it to me! “We will clean it thoroughly.”

“I’ll go. take care!”

“yep!”

After leaving the makeshift slaughterhouse, I sighed deeply at the vivid force moving around inside my body.

“after… “I have a sense of what to do next.”

“If you keep absorbing power like this, will you become really strong too?”

“Maybe so.”

I’m not sure how strong I can become with this power.

Considering the massacre of Erintina, it meant that the empire’s army could become so strong that it could not be easily stopped.

‘Good?’

Feeling the surge of elation, I closed my eyes tightly and took a deep breath.

Fortunately, Shine must have sensed an unusual force and waited patiently for me to stand there.

When I calmed down and opened my eyes again, Shine’s face was right in front of me.

“Ouch!”

Shine suddenly opened his eyes and stumbled, letting out a cute scream.

widely!

He said while holding Shine’s shoulder as he fell backwards.

“are you okay?”

“Ugh. “I almost fell.”

“I was out of my mind.”

“Isn’t it too dangerous?”

“are you okay. It’s because I haven’t gotten used to it yet. “I’m used to it now.”

This is not because of mental contamination, but because it is not easy to adapt to the power received in the body.

If my mind wasn’t protected, I would have reached out to any nearby monsters and tried to suck their power out of them.

Just not having those thoughts was enough to protect my mind.

“How strong have you become?”

“I guess I’ll have to try using the ability myself.”

“Can’t you just try using something that has already been done like this?”

Of course it is.

“Nothing can’t happen.”

I accepted Shine’s request, made her body lighter, and used telekinesis to levitate her.

“oh!”

Shine, who was momentarily confused, quickly adapted to balancing in the air.

“how is it?”

“Isn’t it fun? “It feels like something is holding my body tight.”

“I wrapped around your body with telekinesis and lifted it upward.”

“Ah, so that’s why I got this feeling.”

“Would you like to move more freely? “I will assist you.”

“yes!”

I’ve always wanted to help children fight in this way.

However, I couldn’t dare because the difficulty of moving my body and helping the children move was not the same.

I thought that if I assisted incorrectly, the children could get seriously injured.

When it was urgent, I had no choice but to help the children with my own strength, but when it was not an emergency, I avoided helping the children with my own strength.

But now, perhaps because I have gained strength, I am able to assist Shine’s movements with greater ease than before.

“It’s a lot faster. Could it be that I used less force? And it’s great to be able to move freely in the air.”

“There are many advantages in combat when you can fly. “It will be easier if we work together a bit.”

I feel like I’m still not following Shine’s desired movements.

Still, being able to move as you want in the air was very attractive.

Shine, who had been flying with my own abilities for a while, came down.

“Ugh! It’s great. Flying feels great, right? I think it would suit my abilities well. mister! “Since this has already happened, can’t you join the army?”

“Let’s fight together with you?”

“huh! “I think it would be much easier if I had you.”

“Not right now.”

“Right now? “Then it means I might come in someday.”

“It will take a few more years.”

There were many SSRs that had not yet been summoned.

In particular, all Tier 0 and Tier 1 characters had to be summoned.

I had enough money, but I couldn’t manage them all, so I refrained from summoning them for a while.

Now, after finishing the unique equipment and growth of other SSRs that I had already summoned during vacation, I am planning to start summoning them again.

‘It’s been a while since I got to taste it.’

Since summoning heroes carelessly is not a good idea, I have no choice but to relieve my disappointment by drawing items, but the probability of unique equipment appearing is lower than expected, so I am not able to fully enjoy the experience.

It doesn’t matter because the selected items are delivered to the military anyway, but good things are good, and if unique equipment is well selected, wouldn’t it be fun to draw items?

‘I can’t ask you to disclose the probability.’

Since unique equipment does not come out repeatedly, the more you draw it, the less likely it is that other equipment will come out.

“It would be really nice to have an uncle. “After I enlist, I won’t be able to see you as often as I do now, right?”

Children come to our store immediately after class at least three times a week.

It would be absolutely impossible to see it that often.

“Still, I’ll see you a few times a month.”

It’s not that I can’t see it because I’m busy, it’s that I can’t see it because the kids are busy.

Even if you go on a mission, a month will pass in an instant, so will you have time to see me?

“Wouldn’t it be more helpful to raise and send out members of the unit rather than me following you around and helping you?”

“You’re raising troops and sending them out? Are you raising other children like you did for us?”

“How can you clean up the contaminated area just by yourself? Of course, we have to grow more and grow the unit.”

“Geniuses like us are not that common.”

Shine pouted his lips.

I thought they would be happy when I told them I was going to raise other children, but their reaction was the exact opposite of what I expected.

“Why do you look so disgusted? “If you have a good colleague, shouldn’t you like it?”

When skilled unit members come in, the kids will naturally feel more comfortable and safer.

But why do you hate it?

I convinced her that there was no reason to dislike her, but as Shine put her lips in, she seemed to realize it.

“I guess I was jealous.”

What?

“jealousy? you?”

“I heard that you are raising other children than us. “I think that makes me jealous.”

How should I react to this?

Honestly, I couldn’t think of anything.

Besides, isn’t Shine a girl going through puberty?

“… “Why do you do something like that?”

“I hope you are nice to us. I hate being nice to other people. I guess I feel a little possessive of him. Actually, I didn’t show it when I was getting along well with Erina, but I was in a bad mood. At that time, I thought it was just because I didn’t get along with him. “After we became friends, I didn’t even feel strange.”

It was only now that Shine realized why he felt that way.

“Even though I like you, I’m not in love with you, right? Still, I feel jealous. “Why is that so?”

Should I say that this is possible, or that I misunderstood your feelings?

It wasn’t easy to open my mouth.

“that… hmm… .”

“I’m sure you know in your head that it’s good for us if you do that, right? But I don’t like it. “I wish I didn’t.”

Several answers pop into my head and then disappear.

I don’t know that Shine’s jealousy comes from affection.

I have no intention of mistaking it for love.

I could have said many things, but I felt like this was the only thing I needed to say right now.

“Even if I were to raise other children, they wouldn’t be as affectionate as you.”

“!!”

“I’m serious about this.”

Shine hears what I say and a smile appears on his face.

“Now that you say that, I can’t be jealous anymore.”

“You guys are the best to me, so there’s no need to be tired and jealous.”

“Chii… Do you have to keep your promise? “Do you believe that guy?”

“okay. believe.”

To begin with, I am not the type of person to show affection to people.

However, it may be because it is the first time that I have been able to show affection for children to this extent.

In addition, the kids were so kind, and since we all experienced various things together, it was impossible not to build up a bond.

However, in the process of selecting and developing the next SSR characters, it seemed like there wouldn’t be anything as eventful as now.

‘All sorts of things happened.’

Following Ariando as he ran away from home, he encountered an overwhelming monster.

There was a time when a child was suddenly kidnapped and I was running around trying to save her, but I was confused because I couldn’t get used to the strong force.

The closest thing to happening was that we all went to the front lines together to solve a monster wave.

I don’t think I would do that with other kids.

“If something like what happened with you happens, I won’t be able to live up to my name.”

“Hehe, that’s right. We had a lot of work to do. “When I think about it now, it’s become a fun memory.”

“So, let go of your jealousy, and take good care of the children I send from now on, so that we can safely clean up the contaminated area. Do you understand?”

When I put my hand on Shine’s head and spoke to him, he smiled and nodded.

Now it was time to say goodbye to Shine.

As the children are busy during their vacation, I will also be so busy that I don’t even notice how time flies.
