Chapter Index

    Moon Ji-yu, who came to see Sarah using her superpowers, asked.

    “It seems like Sarah’s superpower is a barrier?”

    “That’s right.”

    “… … !”

    We talked while watching Sera speak inside the barrier.

    There was a reason I assumed that Sarah’s superpower was a barrier, not an intuitive type like a defensive barrier.

    “Look over there.”

    I said so and pointed to the floor around Sarah.

    Because I kept tapping on the barrier, blue waves were created, so it was not difficult to observe them visually.

    “Right now, this superpower is wrapping Sarah in a hemisphere. But in fact, it’s not a hemisphere, it’s a sphere with half of it buried in the ground.”

    Moon Ji-yu’s eyes lit up as he confirmed the part I was pointing at.

    “But… ”

    “But the bottom wasn’t cut off or the soil was pushed away. The ground was passed through as is. Sera also entered the barrier that had been transformed into a sphere as if it were seeping into it.”

    She also listened to my explanation and placed her hand on the barrier Sarah entered.

    Her hand, like mine, was blocked by a barrier that sent blue waves radiating along its surface.

    “While rejecting other people’s hands, you unconsciously passed your own and the ground… Is that it?”

    “That’s right. That’s why I said it’s not just a simple barrier, but a barrier.”

    ‘I think Sarah got a more interesting superpower than I thought.’

    The corners of my mouth turned upward in a long curve.

    Only after Sarah finished talking with Moon Ji-yu did she release the barrier and come out.

    The ball was inflated to a full size.

    “Mr. Woo, if you can’t hear me, you should tell me you can’t hear me! You kept talking like you were broadcasting with your microphone turned off.”

    “Sera. By any chance… ”

    I explained to her that her superpower seemed to be the ability to manipulate some sort of barrier, and asked if she could arbitrarily choose which objects or objects would pass through.

    “Is that the application of superpowers you told Jiyu about?”

    “That’s right. And if that’s possible, it would be a huge help.”

    She let the air out of her mouth when she heard my question. She put her index finger to her lips and seemed to think for a moment, then nodded readily this time.

    “I’ll try!”

    Although it took some time, Sera succeeded in blocking not only the sound and internal energy, but also the color of the barrier to obscure vision and make it stronger. She also made it possible for sound to pass through while preventing contact from others.

    Later on, when you become more proficient at handling superpowers, you may be able to give them even more diverse properties, but for now, this is a great achievement in itself.

    Sarah was also delighted when it appeared that her awakened superpowers could do more than simply block attacks.

    “With this superpower, you wouldn’t even need a soundproof booth!”

    “Haha… That’s the first thing that came to mind? A heavenly broadcaster.”

    I mainly thought about how to use it in battle, but since Sera makes a living through streaming, I guess her thoughts went in that direction first.

    Still, it didn’t look so bad.

    Always thinking about your work means you are serious about it.

    ‘Well, in reality, there’s no such thing as dying or being killed by superpowers. I don’t think there will be many cases where Sarah will go into battle either…’

    “If you broadcast while maintaining the barrier, it will help you train your superpowers.”

    So I gave him a proper nod.

    If we compare it, wouldn’t it be similar to a test taker studying while maintaining the posture of a transparent chair?

    I said that as a joke, but Sarah nodded vigorously with a determined look on her face.

    “How annoying is the soundproof booth! If I turn off the air conditioner even for a moment, it turns into a sauna, and if I install it, the room size will be much smaller than before, and the demolition cost when I move is no joke. There is already a soundproof booth where I live now… but next time I move, I will definitely broadcast from a larger room!”

    “Oh, that’s true.”

    I know that because I’m a streamer myself. My house is in a remote place where it doesn’t get disturbed by cold or heat, so I don’t really worry about noise, so I just didn’t pay much attention to it.

    In this way, the awakening of the superpowers of Moon Ji-yu and Sera ended smoothly.

    Next it was Olivia and Jeong Su-jin’s turn, who chose to awaken their abilities with the Telos Ampoule.

    When the moment came to receive the Telos Ampoule, the two were slightly hesitant about injecting this unidentified liquid into their bodies.

    However, I couldn’t hide my wide-eyed amazement and bewilderment at the supernatural powers that Moon Ji-yu and Sera showed off.

    “How is it? Isn’t it amazing? You can do this too?”

    “Whew! Absolute Shield! Rainbow Curtain! … … !”

    Eventually, the two made up their minds after seeing Moon Ji-yu perform a shadow play on the living room wall and Sarah show off her colorful and splendid barrier while shaking the Odubangjeong.

    “… Yeah! It’s what my brother suggested, so it can’t be wrong! ”

    “Minho! I want to have such a flashy ability! Something that really stands out!”

    “I’ll pray for you. It’s not up to me to choose what abilities you’ll gain.”

    Jeong Su-jin nodded to what I said, but Olivia, whether joking or being serious, held both her hands tightly and began to pray while muttering something.

    I laid the two of them down on the bed with restraints set up just like when I awakened my powers and tied them up tightly.

    On the surface, it looked like some kind of biological experiment was being done, but it was a measure taken to ensure the safety of the two people.

    ‘When I first awakened my power, I also breathed flames from my mouth and there was chaos.’

    Awakening a strong ability is a good thing, but it would be a problem if someone got hurt in the process.

    All the way

    Jeong Su-jin made a puzzled expression as she watched me fill the syringe with the bright orange Telos ampoule.

    No matter how you look at it, it was a face that made you feel uncomfortable about putting a fruit-flavored fever reducer or a medicine that looked like a drink into your body.

    “… Is that really okay to put in your body, oppa?”

    “It’s okay, I’ve been through the same thing. And I’ll be there to make sure nothing happens. Why, can you change my powers right now? That’s possible.”

    “… No. I already decided to do it, so it’s no use changing my words here. I’ll just trust you, oppa.”

    After thinking for a moment, she seemed to find comfort in my calm attitude and relaxed her tension and body.

    In the world of the ruined academy, not just anyone can become an agent.

    But that’s because the nutritional status of the average person in the kingdom is so dire that they had to go through a thorough ideological examination, not because they only selected people who were genetically special.

    Maria ordered them to check the condition of their bodies, and it was found that both of them were in excellent health. They were young and had little chance of having any problems due to their physical strength after awakening their abilities.

    There’s no need to do useless things like ideological verification.

    Basically, the Telos Ampoule is an object that has a fundamental ‘setting’ guaranteed in the work.

    From the beginning, it was normal for nothing else to happen unless I decided to mix something strange in.

    Indeed, the two people who received Telos showed immediate reactions.

    He began to tremble and twist his body so much that the bed he was tied to rattled. His neck was bloodshot and his mouth opened wide as if he was going to scream, a gasping sound coming from his mouth.

    When a sudden, severe pain strikes, there is no screaming, only a gurgling sound. That was exactly what it looked like.

    “Ah… ! Aah… !”

    “Ugh… !”

    Jeong Su-jin opened her mouth and stared into space as if she was seeing something.

    However, judging from the fact that the eyes were not rolling and the whites of the eyes were not visible, there did not seem to be a major problem.

    While Jeong Su-jin showed no special changes or noticeable abnormalities in her body, Olivia was a little different.

    Olivia’s body reacted violently as if the restraints that bound her were going to burst. The muscles in her legs suddenly swelled to the point where they were almost as big as mine, and her wrists became so thin that she could easily pull her arms out of the restraints that bound her so tightly.

    I quickly grabbed Olivia’s body and freed her, preventing her from falling under the bed, but I couldn’t help but be surprised by the sensation I felt on my palm as I held her.

    Aside from the slightly warm body temperature due to the pain and awakening, Olivia’s skin felt softer than flesh.

    ‘This is… hair?’

    It felt like petting a furry animal.

    So when Olivia’s struggles subsided, I opened my palm and examined her skin, but by then her body had already returned to normal.

    I was watching their changes closely from the side, holding the healing rosary tightly in my other hand, intending to use it if necessary.

    Fortunately, their suffering did not get any worse and the awakening of their powers was completed.

    “Ugh… I was warned it would hurt, but I didn’t know it would hurt this much… ”

    “Haaah… Minho, I don’t have any strength in my body… ”

    Both Jeong Su-jin and Olivia were sulking at me with tears in their eyes.
