NOTE: I removed the limit on the amount of plunders in a day because it was worthless.

"Wait! Brother Yu! Don't go!"
Ayumi finally exclaims. I have been monitoring her heartbeat rate and expression, so I was sowhat expecting this.
"I must go, Ayumi." I sincerely state.
"Why?!", she probes as she gets on her feet and stands right in front of with a look of displeasure on her face.
"Wait, Ayumi. Yo-", before Shun can finish what he wants to say, Irene shuts him up with a glare.
I get up on my feet and slowly approach Ayumi. Once close enough, I lower myself and embrace her tightly and whisper,
"It is extrely important for to go right now. If I don't we might not be together in the future."
At my words, she flinches and wraps her own small arms around . I continue to whisper,
"I promise nothing is going to happen to . Rember our promises? I'm not leaving for anywhere before I can take you to the observatory. There is also camping, right?"
She doesn't reply and continues to hug .
Knowing that she's probably going through a lot, I decided to let her hug as much as she wants while patting her head.
------
"So here is what we are going to be doing.", I begin when nightti has arrived. Looking at Ayumi is deeply asleep, then back to Irene and Juno, I continue,
"I will be going around and actively plundering abilities. Based on how the Legion acts and the one that leads them, they should make an appearance soon."
"I'm sure that my actions will mostly distract them from everyone around , however, I would like Irene to stay and protect them just in case."
Her response to my words is a firm confirmation.
"Juno, you will be joining in my journey of taking down Legion. I'm sure your Thermal Manipulation will co in handy when dealing with their bases."

Next morning, after bidding farewell to Ayumi, I head to my school with Juno. My objective is to et up with Yusa, or more specifically, Misa.
As expected, Juno's appearance attracts the attention of everyone. Simply put, her beauty is otherworldly. Actually, for all I know, that could precisely be it.
Once at school, I call out to Yusa who is still being surrounded by students. She happily follows as I take her to sowhere that is exempt from students. I've told Juno to wait for , as this shouldn't take that long.
"I want to speak to Misa." I imdiately tell her.
Yusa looks confused for a seconds before it changes to a scowl as her pupils beco red in colour.
"What do you want from ?", she directly asks .
"Long story short, I have the ability to take away people's abilities, and I am planning to do the sa to you and Yusa. The reason for that is, I'm going to be taking away every ability ever to fight with a criminal organization."
In response to my words, she looks at with contempt as she says,
"You're insane."
I probably am. That doesn't matter for now. I need to get this done with.
"Don't you want to et your parents once again?"
Misa's eyes squint as she stares at for a few seconds before asking,
"Do you think I'm in the position to do so? They live deep in the Nagano mountains. I can't even find the ti to get there. Doing so would ruin Yusa's daily schedule."
Got the location. I grab my phone and find where those mountains are and the distance from here. Once I've morized the details, I approach Misa, lift her and hold her in a princess carry.
"Hey! What do you think you're doing?!", she exclaims as she punches my side. It felt like a light tap...
"I'm taking you to you're parents.", I announce.
"Stop! Whatever it is you're doing. I've already disappointed them once while I was alive. I can't face them like this."
The anxiety in her voice serves to confirm my suspicions. Alright. Let's do this.
I imagine myself floating up from the ground. And that's exactly what happens in reality.
"O-o-oi! You're flying?! Let down!"
I ignore her as I increase my speed and several seconds later, I find myself floating hundreds of ters above the academy.
Looking in the direction of the Nagano mountains, I imdiately begin to fly towards there at max speed.
At the speed we're going at, I feel like we are riding a motorcycle in the sky. It's a fresh experience.
After a while, we get to the mountains. I probe Misa to tell of the location. In the beginning, she was rather reluctant, but as ti passed, it felt as if her hopes of eting with her parents increased.
After she told about the location that her parents work at, which happens to be a Soba Noodles shop, I fly over there and land right in front of the wooden structure.
This attracts a lot of attention as people who are present begin to freak out and grab their phone to record .
I ignore them as I pull Misa's hand and go over to where her parents are at.
"Yusa?!", a rough voice suddenly exclaims.
Misa's palm starts to get a little sweaty. I can't bla her for it though.
"Who is that?", the man imdiately asks as he stares at the hand holding onto his daughter's.
Taking in a deep breath, I say,
"Good day to you sir, ma'am. I'd like to talk to you guys regarding a very important matter. It regards your late daughter, Misa."
The man's eyes imdiately widen at the ntion of Misa. I hear a clanging as the wife drops a pan she was holding.
They don't ask any further questions and just let us inside. There, I begin to tell them about the existence of the supernatural and how their late daughter is right now in her little sister's body.
Naturally, they thought that I was nuts and the father got mad at for "spouting nonsense".
I shake my head lightly in response before placing my hand over Misa's shoulder and whisper into her ear before leaving the store,
"I leave the rest to you. Don't forget that I am here. If things start to get tough, you can lean on my shoulder."

I take a look at the highschooler that is currently lying on the ground unconscious. Then, I take a look at the new ability that I acquired - Energy Drain.
-Energy Drain. I [V]
{Unlimited usage | Requires direct contact.}
Interesting. Could be useful. It's listed under the irregular category and has unlimited usage. The direct contact part can be a bit annoying though.
I wonder how fast is the draining rate...
Having done what I needed to, I head back to the Soba noodles store. There, I find Misa already waiting for . Her eyes are swollen, it seems like she has cried huh...
As soon as I land on the ground, I approach her then pull her into my embrace.
"What are you doing?!", she asks nacingly. I foresaw such a reaction.
"I just felt like it."
She returns the hug for a short while before backing off and saying,
"This is unfair."
I understand what she's getting at. She's going to be going away just like this...
"Here, give this to Yusa.", she says as she hands a letter.
"I've already prepared myself. Do it.", she then says in a resolute tone.
Well, yeah, but before that...
I appear right in front of her and directly kiss her lips. It's not a long kiss, but rather just a small peck.
"You...", she says as she places her right hand on her mouth.
It sure feels weird to kiss soone who is possessing another's body. Not that I care.
I imdiately use Plunder on her.
{Looted: Spiritism, Pyrokinesis}
Irene, secure her soul! There is no way in hell I'm going to let her go away just like this. I'm keeping her, as selfish as this might be. She can complain all she wants later.
{Affirmative.}
I feel a slight suction in the air as invisible particles are absorbed into my body.
{Code Status: Storing one soul.}
"Huh? What happened? Why is Yusarin here?", she asks, perplexed, at her current situation.
"I brought you here to et your parents, and I also have sothing for you from a certain soone."
