I, the Rock King Emperor with 21 billion in power, have joined the chat group.

"Wait for me, Nana-chan."

A little girl with short, golden hair, looking like a puppy, came running up, panting.

"Xiaoman, slow down!"

The pink-haired girl in the uniform smiled brightly, with the innocence unique to her age, and took her best friend's hand.

"We'll be classmates again this year. Please take care of me, Xiaoman."

"Mm." Inukai Mitsuru nodded seriously, his hand gently encircling Hiiragi Nana's fingertips.

Their fingers intertwined, their hearts tender and affectionate.

Two friends who have known each other since junior high school walked hand in hand on their way to school, just like always.

This long slope is lined with cherry blossom trees, and it's the height of spring.

Cherry blossom petals filled the air with fragrance as the spring breeze blew by.

The breeze that lifted their skirts as they passed by ruffled the sunlight and scattered the fallen cherry blossoms on the ground.

Step by step.

The cheerful little girls, as if they had never experienced troubles, longed for a new beginning on the long slope.

Even though the time spent together has been long, it feels like it has passed in the blink of an eye.

Before they knew it, the two of them had arrived at the gate of the high school they were going to attend.

[First Education High School under the Japan Archipelago Superpower Committee]

【Kyoto Junior High School】

"It's like a dream." Nana put one hand behind her head and laughed foolishly.

"I never imagined I'd be able to get into this incredibly rare high school. Could it be that I'll become a big shot someday??"

"Hmm~~! Nana, don't get too cocky." Inukai Mitsuru looked around warily like a puppy, then whispered in Nana's ear: "You lied about being a mind reader to get a 3-point bonus and be admitted to this school. Be careful, don't expose yourself."

"Hahaha~!" Hiiragi Nana winked at her friend: "Hehe, my mind-reading ability is rated E, which means it doesn't even count as a prank. Nobody would expect anything from my superpower. Don't worry, I'm actually pretty good at reading people sometimes, which can be considered mind-reading."

After saying that, she gave a thumbs up, just like a clueless character in an animation.

"Stop doing that, Nana, it's so tacky. The other students will be staring." Inukai Mitsuru tugged at Nana's sleeve shyly.

"Honestly, Koman. You still don't pay attention to your surroundings." Hiiragi Nana raised an eyebrow at her best friend: "Look over there."

Following Hiiragi Nana's gaze, Inukai Mitsuru saw a group of freshmen huddled together.

"That is...?" she asked, puzzled.

“Those are two of the four geniuses who enrolled this year.” Hiiragi Nana’s face was full of longing: “The one who is a little fatter is Iijima Moguo, who is a temperature change type and whose ability is to create flames and high temperatures; the other one who is a little thinner is also a temperature change type, Kori Seiya, whose ability is to create ice and extremely low temperatures.”

"I heard that they've already decided to enroll in the Superpower Research Institute of Temperature Change after graduation. That's a super famous and super powerful institute. Some of the superconducting materials and cryogenic freezing technologies that have emerged in recent years are from their institute."

"Ahhh! Ahhh! They're going to fight! They'll get hurt. We need to get a first-aid kit ready right away. I'm going to the medical room." Inukai Mitsuru panicked as he watched flames and ice appear and disappear in the distance.

"Right, right, and call the teacher out too." Hiiragi Nana was also a little flustered like a little girl, but she still couldn't help but complain, "I've heard that temperature-change type espers are all experts in physical combat. But thinking about it, it's already 2077, and Mars has already established a colony with the strong adaptive nano-armor researched by some immortal esper. How could there still be espers who boast about their combat abilities?"

"Don't they know that the latest superhuman mimicry armor has a built-in mechanism to mimic all superpowers? Even Professor Tesla, who is known as the strongest superhuman, couldn't defeat more than a hundred ordinary soldiers wearing superhuman mimicry armor?"

"You should never think about discussing scientific issues with two chimpanzees that are studying temperature changes"—this is a quote from Professor Tesla.

A cool, clear voice suddenly rang in Hiiragi Nana's ear.

Hiiragi Nana jumped back like a little rabbit in fright, and when she turned her head, she saw a cool and aloof young man in a white coat.

"Hello, mind-reading ability user Hiiragi Nana. I am Onodera Kyoya, an immortal ability user, and also one of the researchers of the Mars colonization highly adaptive nano-armor you just mentioned."

Hiiragi Nana was startled when she suddenly saw a celebrity.

She nodded somewhat flusteredly: "Oh! Hello."

"Hello, nice to meet you for the next three years. I'll be your classmate." Onodera Kyoya nodded to Hiiragi Nana, took a step forward, put his hands in the pockets of his white coat, and started walking towards the classroom not far away.

After waiting for several more minutes, Inukai Mitsuru still hadn't returned. However, the two linear battles between those with temperature-changing abilities were stopped by a tall, ordinary-looking boy.

He touched the fireball of the fire ability user with one hand and the ice of the frost ability user with the other, annihilating them without warning.

Then, this boy with a leader-like demeanor casually said a few words, which exceeded Nana's expectations and got the two temperature-changing ability users to shake hands.

"What kind of ability is this?" Hiiragi Nana, who was encountering so many ability users for the first time, felt like her brain couldn't keep up.

"That's Nakajima Nanao, the ability user who erases abilities, the natural enemy of all ability users." A quiet female voice suddenly rang in Hiiragi Nana's ear again, but this time Hiiragi Nana was not surprised.

Instead, she reached back with one hand and grabbed the hand of the girl who had just appeared beside her, saying with a grin, "Xiaochun, you're here too? How's your uncle? My father was thinking of having him bring you to visit me more often."

“And…” Hiiragi Nana brought her moist lips close to Mishima Koharu’s ear and gently blew a warm breath: “I miss you so much too… in every way.”

Koharu Mishima shuddered like a kitten, but her hand, held tightly by Nana, remained completely still.

She wanted to activate her ability, but was a little worried about hurting Nana, so she could only let her pinch her.

"Ugh~~!"

She unconsciously placed her finger on her lips, gently biting her skin, the fine hairs trembling slightly in the sunlight.

My skin, which has always been quite sensitive, was sweating profusely.

"Huh??? What are you doing?"

A sudden sound abruptly separated their intertwined faces.

Hiiragi Nana resumed her silly grin and quickly turned to face Inukai Mitsuru, who had just run over and was slightly out of breath.

"Xiaoman, let me introduce you. This is my childhood sweetheart. My father and her father were colleagues at the same research institute."

Inukai Mitsuru quickly bowed slightly and said, "Hello, I am Inukai Mitsuru. I am Nana-chan's junior high school classmate and friend. It's nice to meet you. Please take care of me."

Koharu Mishima took two steps back and bowed slightly: "Hello, [Resurrected Dead], thank you for your contributions to world medicine."

"Uh~~~!" Mitsuru Inukai chuckled like a Shiba Inu: "I just offered my superpowers for others to study, I didn't contribute anything at all."

“No. The world’s first superhuman once said, ‘Superhumans exist to make the world a better place.’ What you’ve done is putting that into practice,” Koharu Mishima explained earnestly.

"Alright, alright!" Hiiragi Nana laughed. "Let's not talk about such serious things. Let's talk about our rosy high school life in the future."

As she spoke, she naturally took the soft, boneless hands of Inukai Mitsuru and Mishima Koharu.

Their fingers intertwined, their movements sweet and melodious.

This spring, the air is filled with the scent of citrus and the fragrance of lilies.

......

Golden light bathed the sky above the long slope.

A striking bluestone table stands quietly beneath the cherry blossom tree.

Three people sat around a bluestone table, watching the young men and women pass by, sipping steaming tea in silence.

The young men and women were not at all surprised by the strange three people and the unusually out-of-place bluestone table.

It was as if these three people existed in another world.

After a while, one of the white-haired boys suddenly cursed.

"Shit!"

Upon hearing his voice, the tall, handsome man among the three shook his head slightly: "Hira Nana's memories, which served as anchors in a fixed time, have all been burned away."

"However, I have also restored my memories of her. They will gradually return in the future."

"Tch~~~!"

Accelerator downed the tea, both its light and dark flavors, in one gulp, chewing the tea leaves in the water.

"I'm going back. What a waste of time. I gained nothing and just exhausted myself. It was utter garbage."

As soon as he finished speaking, the space around him instantly changed and vanished without a trace.

"Hey buddy, you're laughing so happily!" The sexy prisoner with a chin and butt sat at the stone table like a lady, sipping his tea.

His gaze swept over Nana and the others not far away, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face: "I didn't expect Miss Nana to have this kind of hobby. If she can join the chat group in the future, I'll have to have a good chat with this sister."

"Well then, Mr. Zhongli, I'm off too. I had a very enjoyable trip."

As he spoke, he waved to Zhongli Shunu in a graceful manner, and his figure instantly disappeared from the space.

"Yes, Nana Hiiragi, this contract between us is now over."

Zhongli looked at the peculiar polyhedron on the left side of the bluestone that was constantly emitting light, and held it in his hand with great interest.

"I will change the whole world for you, revive all good and bury all evil."

"And I gained access to the new timeline and some permissions to this chat group."

"A fair contract."

As soon as the words were spoken, the golden light vanished abruptly, and this dreamlike scene disappeared from the world in an instant.

Zhongli gently clapped his hands.

A large, barely visible door appeared before him.

With a creak.

He opened the door and went inside.

The next second, he left this world.

.....

"Have you heard, Koharu?" Hiiragi Nana held Mishima Koharu's smooth body, gently stroking her with lingering pleasure, and whispered, "I've been having a lot of dreams lately."

"I dreamt that in a world before this one, I shot and killed you with my own hands. All the superpowered people were toys kept by the government. Even Xiaoman died saving me... It was because I prayed to God that we have such a wonderful, dreamlike world now."

Koharu Mishima trembled slightly, but quickly grasped the key point in Nana Hiiragi's words: "You killed me, and then Komichi saved you? As expected, you philandering cat!!! You were thinking of abandoning me and staying with Komichi, weren't you?"

"Huh??~~~~!!!!" After a slight moment of panic, Hiiragi Nana quickly came to her senses.

Her lips pressed against Koharu Mishima's lips, her fingers gently tracing Koharu's skin, slowly moving downwards.

"Ahhhhh! No... please stop!!"
