I head back to the house, as I don't want a panicking Sora early in the morning.
I go to Sora's room, the only room with a bed, and notice that Sora is still sleeping. As if sensing I am here, she slowly wakes up.
I slowly approach the bed, and hold her in my arms as soon as she lifts herself from the bed and softly say to her,
"Good morning, Sora."
She flinches a little, probably not expecting her brother to suddenly hug her early in the morning. She doesn't back away though, and just replies in a low voice,
"Good morning."
After a short while, I let her go and step out of the room and head towards my own. As I'm walking, I realize that I need to take a bath.
As soon as I reach my room, I look for my stuff, underwear, bath towel, etc.
I then make my way to the bath. Thank goodness I have this body's mories unlocked or else I would be struggling a lot right now.
I step into the bath, and turn on the tap water, and wait for the tub to be filled. There is a bath mirror attached to the wall. After I'm done taking off my clothes, I head over to the mirror and examine my naked body.
Toned muscles and abs. Smooth and pristine skin. It's going to sound narcissistic, but I must say that I have a very fine-looking body and face. My height should be about 168cm.
I find soone peeping inside through a gap in the door using my senses, but I decide to not pay it much attention and continue taking a bath.
After a solid 30 minutes, I leave the bath, put on so casual clothes, and head to the kitchen, and take a seat on the table as Sora cooks. I take a look at her and notice that she is in her school uniform.
Oh. I had completely forgotten about school... I don't think it's necessary to go to school though.
Irritated, I ask in a low voice,
"Do I need to attend school?"
"No. It is recomnded that you move to another location once you have returned from Project Charlotte." , ca an instant reply inside my head.
That's a relief. But, why do we need to move though?
"Is there a reason for moving?" , I ask after deliberating.
"Yes." , she affirms.
"As your body has the aura of ti and fate attached to it, once you leave the Rift, it destabilizes the laws here. Janus has already taken actions to deal with this, but so effects still remain."
Was this supposed to answer my question or make even more confused? I will just leave it at that. There is plenty of ti to find out what she exactly ans in the future.
Once breakfast is prepared, Sora and I silently eat. After eating, I inform Sora that I'm not going to be school today, to which she replied,
"Then I won't be going too. I don't need to go if you aren't going."
She says in a calm voice while holding onto her stuffed rabbit.
I'm not going to be reprimanding her, no, this might probably be what she needs; a little rest from outside.
------
I tell Sora that I will be taking a nap, to which she just nods. I then move to my room, and lie down on a tatami laid on the ground.
The next mont I find myself in the te, with Juno waiting for . Upon noticing my arrival, she moves towards and says,
"As I've told you before, the te will be providing you a physical body when you transport to a Platform. There are 3 thods of doing so."
She then proceeds to tell about the thods.
The first thod is transcription. It's basically creating a carbon copy of my body in the Rift for a Platform.
The second thod is arrogation. I get to take over the body of an already existing character, at the cost of being affected by their emotions and thoughts. It can be extrely dangerous if attempted on a non-human.
The third and last thod, Juno refused to tell about it no matter what. She claims that it's useless if I know about it, and will do more harm and good if she told about it.
Juno suggested that I use arrogation for this transport, and take over the body of so guy that goes by the na, Y Otosaka.
According to Juno, arrogation alters reality to the point that my appearance will combine with that of Y, and everyone that knows him wouldn't suspect a thing unless I act unnaturally myself.
Once I'm done preparing, I feel like I'm propelled from space and get thrown in a random direction. After what seems like an eternity, I find myself in my new body, lying on the ground in an alleyway.
mories suddenly start to flow into my brain, even though they're supposed to be already there, of the original owner of this body.
One day, he suddenly received a power that let him possess people for 5 seconds, while his body beca unconscious during the process. He wasn't shy of using his power, in fact, he used it on a daily basis to his advantage. Possessing girl's to check their body out, possessing a guy in a group of guys, and punching the others to start a fight, possessing the smartest students in his class to copy their answers during examinations.
He took advantage whenever he could. As a result, he beca the top student in his school and was recomnded to go to a prestigious school. He scouted for smart students that were going to be taking the entrance exam, and once the day arrived, he successfully managed to attain the top score, making him get chosen as the representative of the freshn.
He didn't stop there but aid for the most beautiful girl in the school. The first ti he made contact with her was after he had "saved" her from a truck that had lost control. The reality of the situation was that he had possessed the driver and steered the wheel in the girl's direction, and coming in himself to save her at the last mont.
This effectively left an impression on the girl, as she invites him out to eat with a female friend of hers.
After this, things go downhill, as he is called in by the student council the very next day, claiming that he has cheated and that he must take the exam again in front of a student council mber, and must get a score of at least 90.
During the event, he possesses the body of the student council mber and attempts to find anything that could help him in the exam, but it was to no avail. Once he returns to his body, he notices that there is a white-haired girl beside him, pointing a cara at his face.
He panics when the girl begins to tell him that she has been observing him, and runs out of the room. He then realizes that he is being chased by sothing extrely fast.
That's where the mories co to an end.
I realize that it's disadvantageous for to continue standing here, so I begin running.
The next thing I know is that my speed has decreased a lot. It should still be abnormal, but not as much as it used to be.
As I continue to run, I finally leave the alleyway and reach a staircase. My senses that have been dulled alarm of sothing. I look back behind and see a blue-haired guy with glasses and a black school uniform just standing there. Upon a closer look, I notice several bruises and scratches all over his body. They seem to be fresh.
He suddenly shifts his body in a way that shows he is planning to sprint towards . The next thing I know is that he runs at an incredible speed, that should be thrice as fast as I'm currently capable of in this world, and grabs and holds onto as we launch into the air.
I use so force to break free from him and kick him away from myself, towards the water beneath us. As for , I let myself fall, confident in my endurance.
When I reach the ground, I am on the other side of what seems like a water canal, with the guy in glasses slowly swimming over.
"Who are you, and what's with that speed?" , I inquire in a nacing tone.
"Teleportation", he replies.
"An ability that allows to cross great distances at a great speed, although I am unable to determine my stopping point. Who knows how many tis I've been to the hospital because of it.", he continues and has a pitiful tone towards the end.
The heck? Did he not attempt to master it?
"You didn't answer properly. Who are you, and what do you want with ?" , I ask with a threatening tone.
"As I've told you before, I'm Nao Tomori, student council president of Hoshinoumi Academy. We are here to get you to join our school." , I hear the voice of a girl behind .
Turning around, I see a beautiful girl that seems to be about 15 years old. She has long grey hair tied into short twin tails with dark hair ties. Her eyes are a beautiful blue. She wears what seems to be a school uniform which consists of a red blazer with a yellow bow tie, and a reddish-brown pleated skirt.
"And what if I refuse?" , I question her while squinting my eyes.
The next mont, she turns transparent. I am barely able to see her even with my improved eyesight, but I can sense her properly. She throws a punch at my face, to which I casually tilt my head and avoid.
A look of surprise covers her face, seemingly not expecting to dodge her attack. I grin as I expectantly wait for her next action.
