Chapter Index

    “Why on earth isn’t it working…”

    Mary sighed as she watched the large screen.

    She, who had obtained my blood and hair, was running various simulations on the computer.

    Countless capsules break apart on a large screen that recreates the environment of that day.

    At Mary’s request, I was desperately trying to recall the memories of that day.

    It was a blurry memory.

    I was on the verge of collapse, so I couldn’t even remember exactly what was around me.

    The last thing I saw was the capsules breaking before my eyes and the torn dinosaur bag.

    “Um… Mary.”

    “Huh? What else did you remember?”

    “Dinosaur… There was a dinosaur bag too.”

    “Dinosaur bag?”

    “Yes, it was a precious treasure that my mom bought me, but it got torn there.”

    “Dinosaur bag? Was it some kind of special bag?”

    “No, it was just a regular bag.”

    To be honest, I didn’t think adding a bag to the experiment would make any difference.

    Still, I told Mary everything I could remember.

    “There’s no progress.”

    Jin smiled regretfully and handed me a small candy.

    It’s a lemon flavored candy.

    I like strawberry flavor better.

    If you give, you will receive.

    He stuffed the candy into his pocket.

    “Then I’ll go now.”

    Jin, who had been watching Mary’s experiment for a while, shook his head and turned away.

    I walked over to Amy, leaving Mary behind, who was absorbed in her studies.

    “Mom.”

    “Huh?”

    “I think I need to buy a new bag.”

    “Oh, you said it was torn?”

    “Yes.”

    Amy bought me a bigger dinosaur bag to fit my growing body.

    This time, the dinosaur’s tail was also larger, and when it rotated its buttocks, the tail turned like a propeller.

    A week has passed since Mary’s experiment began.

    Time passed without any progress in the experiment.

    ***

    The rooftop of a tall building.

    A cold wind blows and shakes the core of my body.

    I looked down, frowning at the blowing wind.

    The operation that was carried out that day, the day Big Jeff arrived, became a huge issue.

    Even with Grandfather’s power, he could not completely control the media, so the resistance was greatly restricted in its movements.

    It was natural.

    midday.

    A large government facility was attacked in the upper zone called Zone 2.

    The government that had been holding its heavy buttocks back has finally started to move.

    He pulled out his sword.

    Resistance branches scattered across several districts began to be raided by the government.

    They were disguised as a private company, and were dragged out one by one by the police who rushed in without being able to do anything.

    My grandfather’s connections were of no use either.

    Everything happened in an instant.

    This mission was to rescue them.

    [Jeff, did you find the convoy?]

    I looked around at the questions coming through the receiver.

    Recently, interference has begun to spread throughout the city.

    It was a very weak radio wave, not intended to interfere with the machinery, but rather to confuse people with electric abilities like me.

    “Hmm… It hasn’t passed yet.”

    I sighed and answered the receiver.

    My mind was distracted by the loud noises coming from all directions.

    It was a situation where I couldn’t concentrate at all.

    It was at that moment that I was rubbing my forehead like that.

    A large convoy zoomed past the road I was looking at.

    It was so fast that I wouldn’t have noticed it if I had been paying attention for just a moment.

    “Oh, now! It’s past now!”

    [Just keep chasing me!]

    I jumped at the sound of Jin’s voice coming through the receiver.

    Jumps between buildings, scattering blue lightning.

    With the security of all cities now heightened, Victor and I were the only ones who could move without being caught on camera.

    [You have to hurry! You’ll miss it if you go through the gate!]

    He wasn’t talking to me, but I was already in a hurry.

    He twists his body as he falls, and steps on the outer wall of the building.

    Phagejik-

    A small electric shock sprouts from the tip of your foot and pushes your body slightly.

    Immediately after, the body is shot in a straight line.

    Phagecic-!

    A belated burst of blue electricity decorates the sky.

    The distance from the moving convoy is reduced instantaneously.

    [Jeff! Don’t act rashly!]

    embrace.

    I know.

    I was fully aware of how dangerous my actions were at that moment.

    But even after the promised time had passed, the team members to stop the vehicle had not yet arrived.

    I took a slow breath.

    Can do it.

    I can easily subdue it on my own.

    It wasn’t difficult.

    Phagecic-!

    The moment I pass the convoy in midair, my body falls down.

    The moment I land on the highway, I turn around and touch the ground.

    There were no cameras around that could recognize me.

    After checking everything, he flew away.

    The blue lightning that extended from his hand began to twist the steel frames sleeping under the road.

    Krrrr!

    The road shakes as if an earthquake has occurred.

    I looked straight ahead calmly.

    The convoy, which was rushing along with numerous escort vehicles, seemed to have no intention of stopping.

    The car is getting closer.

    They race down the road and spit out a fierce engine sound.

    At that moment.

    The shaky road began to spew out large steel beams.

    Quagwagwagagagak!

    Many vehicles swerved to avoid the steel beams that had burst through the ground.

    Squeak-!

    bang!

    Numerous vehicles flip over and crash into the protruding steel beams.

    I observed the situation with calm eyes.

    “I blocked it.”

    [ha…]

    A deep sigh comes through the receiver as I say this.

    I looked around and then flew away.

    Now all that’s left is to leave it up to the other team members.

    When I returned to headquarters, Amy’s breathtaking hug greeted me.

    “Jeff!”

    “Ugh… Mom…”

    I was out of breath.

    Her large breasts pressed against her face.

    I desperately twisted my body to get my face out.

    “Didn’t I tell you not to act rashly?”

    “But if I hadn’t done that, I would have missed it.”

    I recalled the situation at the time.

    I couldn’t tell what had happened to the other team members who hadn’t arrived by the appointed time, but if I hadn’t stopped them, the convoy would have definitely passed the gate.

    “I made a rational choice.”

    Yes, that’s right.

    My choice was rational.

    I was the one who could get there the fastest, and I was the one who could get out safely.

    If the same situation happened, I would make the same choice again.

    “But it’s still dangerous.”

    “It’s not dangerous at all. I was controlling all the cameras around me.”

    “That’s not what I meant…”

    Amy sighed at my words.

    I sighed too.

    I was just annoyed at my mom for not understanding my feelings.

    I tried my best to be helpful here, but I didn’t get any praise.

    “Are you hurt anywhere?”

    “I don’t think so.”

    I looked around my body at Amy’s words.

    The pretty clothes she had prepared for me were in perfect condition, without a single scratch.

    It meant that it was in perfect condition.

    “If you keep acting like that, Mom will cry…”

    “Huh…?”

    “I’m going to cry. I’m going to cry.”

    I looked astonished at Amy’s words.

    Why on earth is Amy doing this?

    I turned my head to look around, and saw Shine smiling strangely from a distance.

    “Mom, you don’t like to cry, right?”

    I didn’t answer.

    He kept his mouth shut and avoided eye contact.

    Then Amy grabbed my cheek and held my gaze.

    “Are you really crying? Are you going to cry?”

    “Ah, ugh…”

    It was clear that it was all Shine’s fault that Amy was saying these things.

    I couldn’t help but nod.

    I hated seeing her cry.

    If she really started crying, I thought I would cry too.

    “I was wrong. Try again.”

    “Okay, I was wrong…”

    “Again, louder.”

    I looked around at those words.

    Other team members who had just returned from their mission were looking at this place.

    To be honest, I was embarrassed.

    My face felt hot.

    I opened my mouth with my head bowed.

    “Okay, I was wrong…!”

    Amy nodded with satisfaction at my words.

    That’s how I was able to escape from Amy’s arms.

    “Can you wait here with me for a moment? I’ll go see Jinhan.”

    “Yes…”

    I nodded and answered in a weak voice.

    Amy tapped my head and turned to Gene.

    I approached Shine, stroking her hair.

    “Did your sister tell you?”

    “What?”

    Shine replied to my words with a shameless expression.

    “I, I’m weak to crying…”

    “I never said that. I cried in front of Jeff, and all he said was that he granted all my requests.”

    “That’s it.”

    I sighed and sat down.

    As I was sitting blankly on the soft sofa, Shine came over and sat down next to me.

    “Do you want to play biting game until mom comes?”

    “… I said once a day.”

    I looked disgusted at Shine’s words.

    There was no avoiding play.

    So I made a promise with Shine.

    Play only once a day.

    Amy said she could play that game once or twice a day without telling Amy, but it was too burdensome to come and nudge her every time she had time.

    “Rain became strange because of you, unnie.”

    “Rain was originally weird.”

    Rain was originally weird?

    I shook my head at Shine’s words.

    Rain was originally a cute and lovable little chick.

    It’s all because of her older sister, Shine, that she has changed.

    I slumped down on the sofa and tapped the hallway floor with my feet.

    Now that my legs have grown longer, when I lie down, my legs touch the floor.

    When will Amy come?

    I looked in the direction she was heading and took a chocolate bar out of my pocket.

    “What kind of chocolate is that?”

    “Rain made it.”

    Ah, I answered without thinking and kept my mouth shut.

    Because I remembered the promise I made with Rain.

    It was a secret that Lane was making chocolate.

    Rain said.

    Because it uses special ingredients, they said the amount that can be made per day is limited.

    ‘If this secret isn’t kept, Jeff will have less chocolate to eat…’

    I bit my lip as I recalled the image of Rain urging me.

    “Rain made chocolate?”

    I nodded after observing Shine’s expression.

    It’s spilt milk.

    But if it was Shine, if it was my precious older sister, I could share the limited chocolate.

    “Yeah. It tastes a little weird. But it’ll be okay once you get used to it.”

    I gave Shine some chocolate.

    The chocolate Rain made had a strange taste.

    It wasn’t that great at first, but as I kept eating it, I got used to it.

    Shine, who received the chocolate from me, opened the packaging and started sniffing it to check the smell.

    “This… Rain made it?”

    “Yeah. But?”

    I answered Shine’s question and shoved a chocolate bar into my mouth.

    A mysterious scent follows the sweetness and stimulates the mouth.

    A taste that I’m now familiar with.

    It was a taste and aroma that somehow reminded me of rain.

    Actually, when I put the chocolate in my mouth and munched on it, the scent of rain wafted in the air.

    They say that food made with care has a hand-made flavor.

    I guess this was exactly Rain’s taste.

    Shine jumped up from her seat without eating the chocolate.

    “I’ll make it too.”

    “Chocolate…?”

    “Yeah.”
