Chapter 526 – Side Story 29) Growing Young Hero (3)
Side Story 29) Growing Young Hero (3)
Young Hero’s problems were not limited to Rachel.
“These two are the biggest problem.”
Rachel, who consumed her potential and used her psychic powers, was also a problem, but there was a bigger problem. They were [Telepathy (Lv. 3)] Psychic Evan and [Lizard Trainer (Lv. 2)] Psychic Laura.
The two lacked psychic powers or other capabilities more than others to play an important role in arresting the villain.
Evan is able to communicate smoothly through [Telepathy (Lv. 3)], But it could be substituted with a radio and earphones. In addition, Evan’s psychic level was still low, so he was able to mentally sync up to 3 people. It was impossible to synchronize the mind with all the members of Young Hero.
Evan’s problem wasn’t the only one. He was unable to move when giving detailed orders. This is because it focuses entirely on telepathy.
In other words, in the current Young Hero, there is Evan, but he is not a big influence.
And Laura.
In Laura’s case, it was worse than Evan’s. Fortunately, Evan is still a man and has good stamina. If you put a gun in his hand, he can even fire a supporting shot from behind.
However, Laura lacks stamina and is sluggish. Give Laura her gun and she will hit her friends better than her enemies.
“Um… It’s impossible to raise it with full force right now.”
Then there is only one thing left.
“Evan is level 4, and Laura is level 3.”
Let’s start with Evan first, shall we?
*****
“You called me?”
“Oh yes. Sit here.”
I pointed to the seat across from her and Evan sat down. Time is money, so we got straight to the point.
“You know you’re not much help to the Young Hero, right?”
“…”
Evan’s eyes trembled as if he hadn’t expected it to come out so straightforwardly. And she bit her lip as if she was a little indignant.
“Honestly, you’re in Young Hero, but you have mana. Telepathy is a rare psychic ability, but it comes with a lot of restrictions. Also, if you have a walkie-talkie and earphones, you can replace your psychic power.”
“… Yes that’s right.”
But Evan quickly nodded and agreed to my words. It was because I knew that the reason I called myself was not to get out of being a young hero, but to strengthen my abilities.
“Before I tell you what I think, I want to hear your thoughts. How will you develop your psychic powers and how do you plan to help the team?”
“That, that’s…”
Evan couldn’t get his words out, probably because he didn’t have anything on his mind. I waited until he answered my question. After a cup of tea had passed, Evan opened his mouth as if he had sorted out his thoughts.
“First of all, let all members be mentally linked, and currently I can use telepathy up to 300m, but I’m thinking of increasing that distance. And again… Uh…”
Gibberish, Evan said whatever came to his mind. It was Jung-gu heating because it was not properly organized. I shook my hand and cut him off.
“Okay, listen to what you think. After all, what you want to be is a human radio with good value for money. A radio that doesn’t need to be charged.”
“…”
Evan bit his lip again.
“Then, I’m going to tell you what I think this time. Would you like to hear it?”
“Yes, please speak. I will listen.”
Correcting his posture, Evan made eye contact with me and focused. Although he was still young, he had the downside of showing his emotions through his face, but that was a shortcoming that could be fully resolved when he got older. From my point of view, Evan was a talented person with a promising future.
“There’s one more thing to check. Could you use telepathy on me on the spot?”
“Telepathy? Wait a minute.”
Evan got up from his seat and reached out to me. In order to connect the mind, he had to touch the body. I raised my hand.
“No. Try using telepathy on the spot without touching me.”
“Yes? Uh, that’s… Impossible?”
“Really? Do you really think it’s impossible?”
“Uh… Yes. Physical contact is essential for mental linking.”
“Hmm… Really?”
I used [Telepathy (Lv. 10)] Using the power of chaos.
[But I can use telepathy like this without contacting you?]
“Ahh?!”
Woodangtang-!
Hearing my voice in his head, Evan freaked out and fell backwards. At that sound, the children who were reviewing the battle from afar looked this way in surprise.
“Uh, how… Bar, did you just use telepathy?”
Evan, whose eyes widened to the size of a lantern, looked at me in disbelief. I smiled.
[Then how am I talking to you now?]
“Mi, crazy! You’re so telepathic! Mister! Oh, no Master! How is this possible?!”
Evan, who used to call me Uncle, started calling me Master. He was a child with a great desire to become strong. His eyes were burning.
“How many psychic powers does Master have? Or is he able to handle all psychic powers like Rachel?”
“It’s a bit different from Rachel, but I can use almost any supernatural power.”
In fact, you can use all superpowers, regardless of superpowers and special superpowers. If you follow the genealogy of human beings, just as I, the giant of chaos, is at the starting point, if you follow the genealogy of supernatural powers, there is the power of chaos.
“Calm down for now and imagine Evan. You’re making a mental link without physical contact.”
“Uh…”
Evan stared into space. He seemed to be imagining himself following my words. He was a very passionate kid.
“Without physical contact, you can form mental links with your friends as well as your enemies.”
“… Oh my god.”
“You can steal the thoughts of your enemies by forming a mental link. You can find out everything about them, including what they’re thinking, what plans they have, and how they’re going to attack you.”
“I, is that really possible?”
“Fix that part first.”
“Yes?”
I poked Evan’s chest and said.
“Is that possible? Wouldn’t it be impossible? Nothing is impossible in this world. This is an era where monsters exist and people use the mysterious power of supernatural powers. What you think is impossible is, in the end, someone can do it.”
“And…”
“Back to the main topic, that’s not the only effect that can be obtained by mental linking with an enemy. You can shout into the enemy’s head and confuse them, or you can inject your thoughts into the enemy. Rather, you will be able to actively intervene in battle and turn the tide of battle.”
“Su, if what Master said is really possible… Yes, it can. Intervene in battle and shake the tide of battle.”
Evan, who imagined himself in the future, made an ecstatic expression. Just imagining it will make your lower legs tingle.
“Whoops. Then, this is the first task. Learn how to establish a mental link without physical contact. Do you understand?”
“Yes! I will definitely succeed!”
“Okay. So, can you go and call Laura?”
“Yes, Master! Thank you in advance! No, it’s not like this, just accept me!”
“Uh, uh…”
This time it was my turn to panic. I simply told him what he could do telepathically, but Evan’s attitude had changed too aggressively. Before I could stop, Evan bowed to me.
Then he jumped and jumped back to the children.
“Huh true.”
He’s a guy full of energy, in case someone isn’t Rachel’s friend.
*****
Meanwhile, the Visual Hero Association.
Haha~ Please sit over here.”
“Yes.”
[Gizman Tothli], Who became the new president after the Valencia president, was welcoming guests.
Before the death of the former president of Valencia, Gizman was a director of the Hero Association, and he was a person who tried to bring him down by competing with Valencia for the position of president of the association.
He also had excellent political power, but the charisma of the president of the Valencia Association was so overwhelming that he had no choice but to promise a future date. And he achieved his dream by becoming the new president of the association after the death of the president of Valencia.
As if they were important guests, there were S-class heroes such as Genefider, Aether, Wind Line, and Ice Queen by the side of Chairman Thomas.
“…”
It was very surprising that the Ice Queen was here. It was only natural that Genefider, Ether, and Wind Line were S-class heroes of the Gizman Association President’s line, so it was natural for them to be here, but Ice Queen was not the Gizman Association President’s line.
Just as the ice queen hated the president of the Gizman Association, he also hated the ice queen. This is because the ice queen was the line of the former president of Valencia, who could be said to be a static opponent of the president of the Gizman Association.
It meant that the people in front of him were important guests to the extent that the president of the Gizman Association hid his true feelings and called the Ice Queen.
The Ice Queen, who can be said to be the face madam of the Hero Association, could not be left out at such an important occasion. The president of the Guizman Association was a politician.
“Did you sleep comfortably?”
“Yes. Thanks to your consideration, I was able to spend comfortably.”
The president of the Guizman association got lucky first. Then the young woman sitting across from her opened her mouth. She was the representative of her customers.
“To be honest, when you said that you were coming across the land of monsters, I thought Gingamin. It is a land conquered by monsters. I heard that in the land of monsters, even if you take one step, monsters will attack you.”
“It’s true that the land of monsters is a dangerous place, but not to that extent. Anyway, I appreciate the offer to support the S-class hero, Wind Line.”
The president of the Gizman Association was going to send an S-class hero wind line that handles wind for the safe movement of guests. The sky wasn’t a safe place either, but if it was a wind line, it was enough to get rid of flying monsters.
However, they rejected the proposal of the president of the Gizman Association and reached the Dark City by crossing the land of monsters on their own.
‘Sheesh. A young bitch condescending…’
On the outside, the president of the association, Gizman, had a gentle smile, but on the inside, he was cursing the woman who just answered.
Of course, he didn’t offer to support an S-class hero out of simple goodwill. He was a politician who would be freed if he gave one.
Had they reached the Dark City safely with the help of the wind line, they would have had the upper hand in the negotiations. However, since they came to the Dark City on their own, they could not gain an advantage.
We had to negotiate with each other on an equal footing. The president of the Guizman Association didn’t like that.
“Anyway, I was a bit surprised to be honest. To think that the representative of the delegation could have been such a beautiful and young person… That must mean that Ice Leverwood-sama’s abilities are outstanding, right?”
“It’s too much praise. And more than me…”
The woman, Ice Leverwood, looked at the seat next to her. Beside her was a boy who looked around curiously, not paying attention to the conversation at all. No matter how much she was beaten, she was a young man who didn’t look like she was 20 years old.
‘What? Is there something wrong with that kid?’
Following Ice’s gaze, the president of the Gizman Association looked at the boy and smiled inwardly.
‘It’s when the blood boils. If you attach a few girls, he’ll come over right away.’
If things go well, you might be able to turn them into obedient dogs.
“Rather than that, shall we have a constructive conversation now?”
Gizman, the president of the association, clasped his hands and rested his chin, said with a smile.
“Will you play a part in reclaiming the land of monsters?”
