"Let's go. They're waiting for us.", I say as I motion to Juno to follow .
We're not driving. We are going to run to where the rest are at. Wouldn't that cause us trouble? I'm pretty sure several explosions and gunshots that happened a while ago is a good distraction.
Juno is able to barely keep up with my speed while I am not using Godspeed. It makes wonder... what is she? What am I?
Like, I have to be SOTHING for to create the System and all the other inexplicable stuff. Whenever I feel like I've discovered all my powers, sothing new just pops up through a coincidence.
Speaking of powers, how is my Essence Energy at the mont? I assu all that warfare from before had drained it. A while has passed though, so I can't be sure. Oh, right! Juno did say sothing about copulation with soone of equal power will restore my Essence. Could she be one such person?
Once I check it, I am a little surprised by the fact that it's at max. However, there is also a different feeling to it. Sothing has changed. It feels like it has expanded...
My stats are the sa except for my humanity. It has decreased to 61%. Not that I ever bothered with it. As long as it doesn't affect my ntality sohow, I don't care even if it reaches zero.
"Hey, Juno. What exactly happens when my humanity percentage reaches zero?", I ask after so careful deliberation.
In response to my question, she just smiles back at and doesn't utter a single word.
"All right, then. Keep your secrets."
it doesn't take us long to reach my apartnt The building is still pretty damn impressive.
After sensing the whole place and looking at every corner through Clairvoyance, I head inside my apartnt with Juno.
The mont I open the door, I hear soone shout, "Wait, don't!"
Seconds later a powerful purple ball slams into . I hear small sobbing noises as Ayumi holds tightly.
I feel a throbbing inside . Whatever Ayumi is going through is related to one way or another. I wish I could just put an end to whatever the hell is happening right now and terminate whoever it is that is inciting it.
I gently stroke Ayumi's back as I hug her. Behind Ayumi, the rest appear with so additional people...
Shun, Nao, and the brown-haired high schooler are there. Aside from them, there is the orange-haired girl, a blonde guy who resembles the one in the "recollection" I had recently, and finally, a blue-haired guy who seems to have a lot of experience as a big brother based on his expression.
I send a glare at Shun's direction. He better have prepared his explanation.
We all head inside and take a seat. Irene cos out of Ayumi's room and takes a seat on my lap like it's the most natural thing to do.
"Father is displeased with your actions. You better take actions to make up for your foolish actions, lest sothing unfortunate ensues."
Before I or anyone for that matter could say anything, Irene says in a threatening tone as she glares at Shun.
Oh wow. I think she really might be my daughter.
Juno and I don't feel anything wrong, but that doesn't seem to be the case with the rest.
They're all visibly nervous as beads of sweat appear on their foreheads. I don't know what it is, but it must be Irene's doing, so I pat her head. Everyone seems to be instantly relieved as she leans back and snuggles in my arms.
Shun takes a deep breath before beginning his explanation over what happened in the past.
------
A long ti ago, a cot was spotted near the Earth. It had a long trail and looked absolutely stunning. Once the cot had gone past Earth, supernatural events began to occur. Not the usual ghost, UFO or yeti spotted but shaky or unclear cara kind of supernatural events.
It was more about children with superpowers. These children, being the teens they were, began pretending to be superheroes or doing other retarded actions that led to attracting the attention of scientists.
Scientists being who they were, began to gather them and experinting on their bodies.
In order to change things, Shun decided to make use of his ability, Ti-Leap, to travel back in ti and work with the rest. Albeit, this ability ca at the cost of his eyesight.
It took him a lot to convince the rest as they didn't rember him after the leap through ti, but in the end, they managed to create safe-houses which happened to be schools for ability wielders.
The thing that surprised most was that the brown-haired high schooler that drove us to the hidden base was the sa creep that always ca to our clubroom and told us the location of ability users.
The story doesn't end there. Shun continues to speak of how peaceful everyone's life was and how happy they all were, until one day, the Legion attacked.
The Legion was an organization that was established by an unknown individual of imnse power. This organization helped scientists out... A LOT. Most of the research they had trouble with was solved with the appearance of Legion, which made the war between the ability users and benefit-seeking adults unstable.
It beca easy for them to kidnap ability users all over the globe and freely research on them. What everyone found weird about Legion, was that they didn't seem to have a goal, unlike the scientists who simply wished to utilize the abilities they experinted on in various places.
Well, I do know their purpose now. I wonder how they will react if they know that the reason they are in this ss right now is because of .
His explanation ends with us being kept away from himself. Why didn't we rember him? Because one day, the orange-haired girl, whose na is doki, and the blue-haired guy-Maedomari, ca over to our house. doki used her ability to make Ayumi lose consciousness before doing the sa to .
Then, Maedomari used his ability to erase our mories of Shun.
These abilities sure are handy... but, they all have their own issues. doki is unable to use her ability consecutively, while Maedomari takes ti to erase mories and has to be in physical contact with them to do it.
I wonder if I can take their powers if I possess everyone here right now... Heck, I could go around taking everyone's superpowers... wouldn't that be fun? I wonder how the Legion and the scientists would respond to my actions.
Now that I think about it, that's the most efficient course of action to take in order to deal with all of the current issues I am facing.
Wait. My ability is sort of weird. Everyone I've t up until now that had an ability, had so kind of limitation. Not sure about the Telekinesis and Thoughtography though.
Surely, my cheat ability has a setback of so sort.
"Father can always integrate with the power Father wants to get rid of the side effects of."
Goddamnit, Irene! Don't just pop out of nowhere and interrupt my thoughts within my mind! Forget that. How do I integrate with a power?
"That's simple. But, be advised that Father may integrate with five powers at most. Upon getting rid of the bond ford, all progress with the power will be reset other than your own comprehension of it."
Well, I don't think that taking other people's abilities is a weak power. I'll do it.
"Invoke - " (Literally ans "integration".)
The mont I chant the word that she told , I focus on the ability and a bright red floating rectangle appears in front of . Written on it- Plunder.
