episode_0413

It was late at night, while I was playing with dolls with Lily.

I was startled by the sudden loud noise outside the window and jumped up from my seat.

Lily also seemed surprised and came to me, hugging her friend Freddie tightly.

Judging by the way he was trembling, it seemed like he was afraid of loud noises.

I quickly looked out the window.

Outside the window, black smoke was rising from a very distant place.

I was left dumbfounded by the sight that did not match the peaceful-looking cityscape at all.

“Did something happen?”

“I hope there are no problems…”

It was while I was blankly staring out the window with Lily.

bang!

Black smoke rose from different directions along with the loud noise.

This definitely seemed like a problem.

Lily was so shocked that she collapsed on the floor.

I reached out and helped Lily up.

If I could go out, I would go to where the explosion occurred and watch, but right now I can’t go out.

Even if I went out, it was obvious that Kelly would show up soon and catch me.

It was the moment when I patted Lily on the back.

In the clear sky, dark clouds suddenly began to gather, and eventually covered the mansion where I was.

Lily began to tremble at the sight of dark clouds blocking out even a single ray of sunlight.

Dismissal-

A blue current surges across the skin.

I raised the corners of my lips slightly.

I could tell instinctively.

That it was Rain who summoned these dark clouds.

How can you not recognize a partner you’ve been working with for years?

I immediately pushed Lily away gently.

“Jeff?”

“I think it’s time to go back.”

“Huh? What is that…”

“My mom, my sister, and the chick came.”

“Huh? A chick?”

I raised my hand without answering Lily’s words.

It was Rain who summoned the dark clouds, but she couldn’t have come alone.

At least our entire team would have come.

I raised my hand out the window.

Phage, phage, phage!

Lily, who had been standing blankly beside him as the blue lightning covered his entire hand, jumped back in surprise.

“Don’t come any closer, Lily. It won’t end with a sting.”

“Jeff!”

Lily shouted at me, unable to approach me rashly.

I took a deep breath and shot the electricity gathered in my hand into the sky.

Dismissed!

With a loud noise, a blue lightning bolt flew across the clouds.

Gurrrrung-!

The dark clouds covered in blue lightning made an ominous sound as if responding to my words.

And at that moment, a blue lightning shot up from far away.

Victor’s answer was clear.

This confirmed each other’s location.

I immediately spread out the current field and checked where Victor’s lightning had shot from.

There are dozens of people moving around there.

I checked the heart sounds of the people I was most familiar with.

Amy, Shine, Lane, and Victor.

It was clear there were four people.

The moment I saw them, I climbed out the window.

“Jeff! Are you going out?”

“No. I just wanted to check.”

“Aaah! Mom is going to be so mad!”

“My mom seems very angry too.”

Lily didn’t know what to do with my words and started to cry.

Now it was really time to break up.

I wanted to take you home, but decided to put that off until later.

First of all, I had to see my family’s faces.

It was the moment when I was about to fly out.

Suddenly, the dark clouds began to stir and a large lightning bolt fell.

Kwaaang!

The lightning that struck the ground with a loud noise from above was carrying a doll.

Phagejik-

Blue lightning strikes the surrounding area, releasing black smoke.

The person who appeared and burned everything around him was none other than Victor.

I thought he looked really cool, wearing a rider suit and waving a blue muffler.

“Victor!”

As I shouted happily, Victor’s gaze turned to me.

He checked on me, nodded as if he was relieved, and said,

“Jeff. I’m here to pick you up.”

“What about mom? What about sister?”

“Coming.”

It hadn’t even been a day since we broke up, but it felt like we had been apart for years.

As I was about to go out, my hand was suddenly grabbed.

“No! Jeff! It’s dangerous outside!”

“Lily. I really have to go.”

“No!”

Lily was desperate.

I smiled awkwardly at Lily’s appearance and released her hand.

bang!

I turned my head in a hurry at the sudden sound.

Because the sound came from outside, from where Victor was standing.

Black smoke rose and blurred the view, but it was still possible to make out the outline.

Victor was lying down.

As if someone had trampled on him.

“Victor!”

As I shouted in surprise, blue lightning burst out from Victor’s body, blowing the opponent away.

“I’m a guardian!”

“Guardian…?”

“Yes! They are very strong people who protect District 1. However, they are very scary. They arrest anyone who enters District 1 without permission.”

I swallowed dryly at Lily’s words.

I don’t know how great that Guardian is, but can he really defeat Victor?

Now Victor had a powerful suit and a dark cloud summoned by Rain.

Victor and the Guardian started fighting.

He was wearing a black suit and a helmet that covered his head, so his face could not be seen.

The Guardian seemed to be a power-user who fought by strengthening his body, and was pressuring Victor with only his physical abilities, without any special techniques.

As the fist hits the air, Victor’s body is pushed back.

I quickly jumped out the window.

I couldn’t just sit there and watch blankly.

The moment I was about to head outside, I found myself standing next to Lily again.

“Oh my…”

I looked around blankly.

Clearly, it was the room I had been standing in just a moment ago.

But I had just run out.

What on earth is going on?

I carefully checked my surroundings, hoping to see Kelly, but I couldn’t find her.

“It seems like your mother has used her powers more strongly.”

Lily came over to me and held my hand tightly, as if she was relieved to see me.

“Kelly’s ability?”

“Yes, you were really surprised when you heard that Jeff had left the mansion. That must have been why you used your powers more powerfully.”

What on earth is Kelly’s power that allows her to bind me like this?

I scrunched my face and released Lily’s hold on my hand.

“It’s no use!”

I flew again, paying no attention to Lily’s words.

I don’t intend to go out.

I just wanted to help Victor.

But the next moment, I was standing in the room again.

bang!

With a loud crashing sound, Victor soars into the sky.

I bit my nails nervously.

Since it had come to this, it seemed like I had to help Victor with a ranged attack.

I started rummaging around Lily’s room.

“What are you looking for?”

“I’m looking for something like a small iron ball. A coin would be fine too.”

“Oh, if that’s the case, I have it.”

At my words, Lily went to her drawer and took out several small beads and laid them out in a row.

“Are you going to play marbles?”

Lily clung to me, her eyes shining with excitement at the thought of playing.

But I wasn’t trying to play.

I smiled slightly and pushed Lily away.

“That’s not it.”

“Huh? Then are you going to tell me about another game?”

I reached out to the iron balls without answering Lily’s question.

The electricity flowing from my fingertips became magnetic and pulled the iron ball onto my hand.

“Wow…”

Lily opened her mouth as if she was amazed by the sight.

I ran straight to the window.

Boom! Boom! Crackle!

Victor and the Guardian continued to fight.

No matter how I looked at it, it was a picture of Victor being pushed.

I picked up a small iron ball and held it in my hand.

Phagejik-

Increases your abilities immediately.

My heart beats loudly, drawing blue electricity.

The electricity that was spreading throughout the body soon began to focus on the orb on the hand.

Wheeek-!

The iron ball placed on the hand soon began to rotate rapidly and floated into the air.

The output is pushed to the maximum without any need for adjustment.

Because the lack of current will be supplemented by the rain clouds.

Strike the iron ball with all your power to enter the origin state.

The rapidly spinning iron balls tore through the surrounding air, producing a harsh sound.

I glared at the back of the Guardian fighting Victor.

He was slowly coming down from the air after punching Victor and sending him crashing into the ground.

just now.

Hit the floating iron ball in the air with your fist.

Ppaang-!

Along with a loud cracking sound, a blue flash of light shoots out in a straight line.

The guardian who was falling from the air turned around and raised his arm as if he sensed my attack.

But it was too late.

Kwaaang!

The body of the guardian who was hit directly by the iron ball is pushed back greatly.

No, it would be more correct to say it flew away.

But I squinted my eyes at the sight.

It was an attack that struck with all its might.

This means that it is not an attack that the human body can withstand.

It would have been normal if the body had been pierced.

But the guardian’s body was intact.

“Jeff, you must not attack the Guardian!”

Lily was fussing next to me, but I quickly prepared for my next attack.

If you’re still okay, you’ll be back here soon.

The moment Victor, who had been pinned to the ground, got up again, another guardian fell from the sky.

“Soo, isn’t there only one guardian?”

Apparently, the Guardian Victor had been dealing with just a moment ago had been blown far away.

That is, what fell from the sky is another guardian.

Victor took a deep breath and glared at the newly appeared Guardian.

The Guardian glanced at Victor, then turned his head away as if he was not interested.

The place he was looking at was me.

“Ouch… Jeff! The Guardian is looking at Jeff.”

“I know…”

For some reason, the atmosphere wasn’t good.

The Guardian began to slowly lower his body.

The legs bend and the upper body falls forward.

Speaking to me.

That was the ready position.

It was a posture that contained the message that he would run towards me.

I quickly pushed Lily away from me.

“Aaah!”

The moment Lily, pushed by my hand, rolled on the floor, the guardian was shot.

I immediately went into origin state.

Boom!

The wall of the building that the Guardian had hit with his body burst apart, leaving the surrounding area in shambles.

At the same time, I moved my body.

I avoid the fist reaching out towards me while simultaneously rotating my body.

No, I tried to rotate it.

Phew!

The Guardian’s fist struck the air, creating a strong wind that lifted his body up and sent him flying into a corner.

“Ugh!”

My body felt so light.
