The warm, but not blazing, morning sunlight streams into the room through the cracks in the windows. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Despite its high domes, floor-to-ceiling windows, and ornate décor, it's actually just a restaurant owned by Tokiwadai, and as one of the best aristocratic girls' schools in Gakuen City, Tokiwadai's infrastructure is not enough to describe as extravagant. Because it was summer vacation, there were only a few people in the restaurant that could accommodate hundreds of people.

On a table in the corner of the cafeteria, there are a series of high-calorie food combinations that make you fat at a glance, from pudding to mousse to milk tea, and someone is burying his head in a big meal.

"Yo, Tsukimiyama." Mikoto Misaka put the tray in front of her, and then sat down heavily in the seat across from her, "Why do you overeat in the morning?" ”

"It feels like summer is the peak of perversion...... This is also that and that is too. Tsukimiyama raised his eyes, and Mikoto Misaka could see a pair of dark circles under her eyes that looked like she had applied eye shadow," ...... To be honest, I've been accumulating a lot of stress lately. ”

"Is that the same for you?" Mikoto Misaka nodded sympathetically, she knew that she also had dark circles on her face caused by lack of sleep, "I always feel like a lot has happened in the past two days." ”

The two sighed in unison.

"Ahhh Tsukimiyama slammed the table, startling Mikoto Misaka, "Coach, I want to be stronger!" ”

"Getting stronger?" Mikoto Misaka looked at her as if she was just venting her emotions, and asked casually, "Do you want to be stronger in Tsukimiyama?" ”

"That's not a natural thing."

"For a scholarship?"

"Of course not. Although I am an orphan, if I talk about money, the subsidy of lv4 is enough for me to live a good life. Tsukimiyama seemed to have come to the spirit, and a pair of eyes under the dark circles sparkled, "However, you don't need a reason to become stronger!" ”

"What, that kind of line is usually only spoken by villains."

"Huh? Didn't Misaka-san think about getting stronger? My words are good once, and I want to have a chance to say lines like 'I がcareer に一のregretい无し'! (Note 1)"

"The end of the century has long passed." Mikoto Misaka yawned loudly, obviously not very interested in this kind of topic, "As for getting stronger or something...... I thought about it, but it was a long time ago. ”

"Ahh Yuejianshan sipped milk tea in both hands.

"I also started at lv1 and worked hard to become loft5! Don't say as if I was born with lv5, you have to work hard, work hard! ”

"So this world is a world where hard work pays off?! It's the first time I've heard of it! ”

"Don't be so pessimistic, you're also a powerful person?" Mikoto Misaka waved her hand, "So how do you want to get stronger?" Your calculation formula has been optimized, right? ”

"It's not impossible to get stronger." Tsukimiyama said lazily, "But there will always be a little trouble of this kind and that, so I'm still hesitating." ”

"Sounds like being ranked eighth lv5 is just a matter of thinking about it? Can you share with me the secret of how to level up in one fell swoop? Mikoto Misaka joked, "Don't tell me it's an urban legend like the fantasy levelup...... That kind of monster, once is enough for me. ”

"For example, twenty times the world o fist ......"

"Suddenly became a hot-blooded teenager?!"

"Or maybe it's solved!"

"The next plan is to eat the evil fruit or complete the form change practice of Chaola. Is there anything more realistic? ”

"Yes, yes, but it's basically invincible in the world after using it, but it will ......blow itself up after three minutes," Tsukimiyama changed the subject, and she asked in a vaguely persuasive tone, "Misaka-san, I didn't think about becoming ...... Is it stronger? You know you're only No.3 and not No.1 now. ”

"Never thought about it." Mikoto Misaka ate the water steamed buns on the plate without lifting her head, "'Listen to the will of heaven in a non-god's body' or something, it feels too far away from me." Would anyone really want to be that kind of thing? ”

"Something?" Tsukimi Mountain came to the interest.

"yes. The stronger a person becomes, the easier it is to become disconnected from other people. It's not physical or emotional, it's psychological...... How so? Isn't it a sense of distance? In terms of the definition of society. Mikoto Misaka pointed her index fingers together in front of her eyes, and then pulled away.

"For example, if you are the president of a large company, then people who know your identity will definitely be affected by your identity, and the initial psychological distance between you and other people will become more distant, even if you don't really care about this identity. If you become at the level of lv6, can you still be considered a human being? Or is it actually an alien with a human appearance? The distance between you and others is about as far as Mars to Earth, right? Mikoto Misaka snorted coldly, "Listen to the will of heaven? Would you want to be friends with someone who knows everything and everything? ”

"It doesn't sound like this friend is that wonderful." Tsukimiyama concluded, "So Misaka-san's plans to become stronger at all now. ”

"yes. I didn't think it before, but now it seems that being a lv5 is no better than being an obscure lv4. Mikoto Misaka leaned limply on the table, "I may have tried too hard before. ”

Her heart was a little heavy.

It was unthinkable for her to have her DNA profile used by someone else to make a human clone.

Just imagining that there might be her own replicant floating quietly in the culture tank gave her a creepy sense of unhappiness.

Something that is exactly the same as oneself is fished out like food or a commodity, and then placed on the assembly line......

It's disgusting.

Although the invasion of the lab last night turned out to be a false alarm, there is no doubt that the scientists had intended to create a clone of her. If she's only a lv4, there's probably no such possibility, right?

Speaking of which, it's really nostalgic for the days when I worked hard to improve my abilities! At that time, even a 100-volt increase in the operating voltage would give people the pleasure of making progress.

But what about now? Now that he's at a young age, he's reached the pinnacle of the school city.,There's no room and motivation to move forward.,And you have to be on guard against Frankenstein who might covet your abilities and the like - this cloning incident is proof of this.。

Thinking about it this way, there is no benefit to becoming LV5 at all?

Thinking of this, Mikoto Misaka couldn't help but sigh faintly, feeling invincible and lonely.

"Such vicissitudes." Tsukimiyama ate the last pudding in one bite, "But to say that 'I want to be truly invincible!'" It's not uncommon for someone to say something that sounds like a middle two-word thing, and if it's the strongest, it's just that it makes people want to challenge that guy to this level.' I want to be a strong person that people wouldn't dare to think I'd challenge to that level.' ”

"If I had the chance, I'd like to see it." Mikoto Misaka said casually, "That kind of super positive guy. ”

"It's not that the opportunity is out of the ordinary...... But I guess you're not going to be happy to meet him, and he's not a positive personality. Yue Jianshan tried to imagine a certain white hair in a positive state, and couldn't help but feel creepy, "Then there is one last thing I want to hear your opinion: if something is bound to fail, is it better to regret it after doing it?" Or is it better to regret not doing it? ”

"Huh? What are you talking about? Mikoto Misaka was confused, "Even if it is bound to fail, the action itself will bring meaning, right?" Something meaningful is meaningful even if it fails, right? ”

"Looks like what you said...... Then it was decided. Tsukimiyama nodded thoughtfully, as if he had thought about something he had been hesitating for a long time, "scw417aef184jku754." ”

"Huh? What are you talking about? What do you mean? Mikoto Misaka was stunned for a moment, but saw that Tsukimiyama had already gotten up and left with the tray.

"Anyway, don't worry so much, just remember...... Well, bye-on! ”

Note 1: "Fist of the Big Dipper", the overlord Rao at the end of the century.

PS1: If there is no accident, it will be updated every day except Wednesday and Friday, and if there is an accident, it may be updated on Wednesday and Friday. Thank you readers for reading...... and a few who voted for recommendation without updating.

PS2: The name Kaori Shimizu came up with casually, and the reason is that because the ability includes the sense of smell, it is linked to "Zero no Kaori", and then it is associated with the author Yuki Kaori...... Because the name is a bit popular, it may cause the name to be duplicated.

PS3:School City has been established for so many years.,Did those lv5s feed the dogs before...... Demon Forbidden: At present, I feel that there are important logical conflicts, and there are more than a dozen of them.
