This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
It felt as if Emil had woken up from a long slumber. As if his entire life until now, he had been sleeping, moving while sleeping, eating while sleeping, and everything done while sleeping.But the moment he unlocked the power within him, he could finally open his eyes, he could finally see... and he could finally feel truly awake.
"What happened to you?!" Benladra asked.
The red-haired woman gritted her teeth in disbelief before the immense Psychic Force Aura surging from the boy.
"T-That Aura...! How come your kind... has awakened as an Esper?! Aren't you only Empaths?!"
Emil faced Benladra with a gentle smile, then at the women with a cold, expressionless face. "Yet despite being Empaths, we are the origin of all your powers, even the one you're using right now on Benladra and the surroundings."
"Huh? So you've figured it out?! How... that's a power that nobody has ever...!"
Crack, crack...!
The woman's eyes opened wide as she saw Emil grasping the Psychic Mass of her own Esper Technique.
"I see what you're doing. This is a Perception Barrier that completely nullifies your presence and that of everyone within a 50-meter radius of you... At the same time, it makes it so everyone you lock-on will endlessly run back to you once they're about to reach the end of the range of your ability, creating the illusion they're running in circles..." Emil analyzed everything within mere seconds. "Amazing, Monique."
"H-He figured it all?!" she gasped. "Wait, how do you know my name?!"
"Your mind is open for me to read," he said. "You're like an open book... your thoughts, even your memories, they have become mine the moment you glanced into my eyes."
"He can read the minds of those that look into his eyes?!" she thought, giving a step back. "That doesn't change anything though..." she smiled defiantly despite all that, giving a false bravado.
"Monique? Is that her name?!" Benladra stood up again. "Can you destroy her Esper Technique?"
"Yes, I already destroyed it with a delay of a few seconds," nodded Emil. "What?!"
Crack, crack...!
CRASH!
Before Monique could even realize, her technique was instantly destroyed, and in that very second, Benladann, Miranda, Kate, and Drakda who were looking for them saw them.
As if they appeared out of nowhere!
"Benladra!" Benladann cried.
"What's going on?!" Miranda asked.
"Who's the red-haired woman?" Kate wondered.
"Bwig sis!" Drakda called for her.
"Ah! There you are, Emil!"
"What happened?"
Even Belle and Gabriel were looking for him, Drake had told them to protect him, yet they were instantly excluded from the technique's interior, leaving them completely clueless about Emil and Benladra's whereabouts.
"Tch, shit," Monique clicked her tongue. "I guess the cat's out of the bag..."
She waved her hand as she took out a huge machine gun, loading it with her crimson Esper energy.
"I'm going to kill you all then."
"Wait!"
Benladra tried to stop her as Monique fired the machine gun, a huge cosmic weapon imbued with starlight crystals of the highest density and then boosted with her Esper Aura.
In this Trial's difficulty, it has already been shown that even average thugs were as strong as Rank 10 foes, some of them even at Peak Stage.
Monique was already shown to be exceptionally stronger, even above them, and so were her powers and equipment.
.
If she were to shoot such a barrage of bullets... everyone might end up with tremendous wounds, and large amounts of damage.
Benladra couldn't predict if they would even survive.
BAANG! BAANG! BAANG! BAANG!
Monique smiled maniacally as hundreds of bullets were fired at once, reaching her enemies and then piercing through their bodies, exploding.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"HAHAHAH!" She laughed. "That should at least kill a few of them...!"
"No."
"Huh?"
She saw Emil by her left side, his eyes piercing her mind.
Suddenly, Monique vomited blood.
"Wha...?!"
And found that her shoulder and her stomach had two small holes, her own bullets had
pierced her body.
"How did he...?!"
She quickly stepped back as she gasped, realizing her machinegun was out of bullets but...
once she noticed that Benladra and everyone else with her were fine.
She began to ask more and more questions inside of her head!
"Just what happened?"
"Didn't I just shoot them?!"
"How did he... get there?"
"Why is he looking so damn smug, that damn cattle?!"
Emil looked into her eyes.
"I suppose you're wondering how that happened..."
Emil walked towards her fearlessly.
Benladra and the rest could only watch.
"Huh? Weren't we shot?" she wondered.
"I saw something..." Kate said. "Emil... it was as if... as if everything we saw was a construction of our own minds? It was strange."
Kate, who was a special living, being of her own, barely noticed something that Emil did, which nobody else did, not even Miranda, Benladra, or Benladann.
"{Mind Marble}"
Emil walked towards Monique.
"What? What are you talking about?!"
Monique fired her bullets at Emil.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
However, the explosions ended reaching her instead, erupting and blowing her away once
more.
"Guuhh?!"
She vomited blood into the floor, realizing she was killing herself!
"It's my Esper Ability."
"HAH?!"
"Have you seen a marble before?"
"What?! Shut the fuck up and die, you freak!"
Monique lost her cool instantly, taking out a small gun and firing all its bullets at Emil.
Yet...
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
The bullets hit the wall behind her and her legs.
"Aaarrgh!"
As she screamed in pain, Emil looked at her expressionlessly.
"It's a sphere made of glass. This is what my mind has become."
"Eh?!"
"Everyone within range enters my Mind's Marble. The laws of physics, cause and effect, are rewritten based on my own thoughts. Imagination is its fuel though, so it's gets progressively
harder to use."
"... Huh?!"
Monique couldn't believe it.
Was there such a powerful Esper Ability ever?!
"Why are you telling me all of this you dumbass? It'll leak and everyone will come for you!"
"I'm telling you this because you're already dead, Monique."
"I-I'm already... dead?"
Monique then realized that her body was on the floor, bleeding out, her guts were out, her
eyes were glancing at the ceiling.
Rapidly losing their light.
"That's for all the people you've tortured."
"A-Ah..."
"Goodbye."
And then darkness engulfed her consciousness as her eyes rolled.
