Living your daily life in a shonen anime seems to be wrong.

"Seven...nights?"

Shirai Kuroko outside seemed somewhat surprised.

There was no reply for a long time.

This puzzled Misaka Mikoto.

"Hey, what's wrong?"

"No, no, it's... "

Shirai Kuroko scratched her head.

how to say……

"Big sister, you used to call him 'that guy, that bastard' all the time, but you seem a little different today. Is it just my imagination?"

"Um... well... so, since she's a teacher at the school and knows my father, of course I have to be polite."

Is that so?

"Otherwise, what do you think it would be like?"

Misaka Mikoto asked a question in return.

Seemingly not wanting to dwell on this issue too much, they urged them to hurry up.

"Alright, tell me quickly, where does Qiye live?"

"Hmm... I don't know the specifics, I've never been there. Mitsuko went there often after the wedding, and it seems like Wannai-kun went there too... Oh right, Saten-kun knows about it."

"Saten-kun?"

"It was said in early spring that Saten has been going to Nanaya-sensei's place every morning recently, apparently to develop her abilities or something."

"Development capabilities?"

"It should be related to what the students in the bay area did, but I don't know the specifics of the haters."

"Oh……"

Misaka Mikoto is deep in thought in the bathroom.

A student from Wannei said...

I remember discussing this with Shirai Kuroko once before, mainly based on what I heard from Nanaya, about things like natural energy and sensory absorption. Then Shirai Kuroko mentioned a conversation she had overheard.

To be honest, this is something that Misaka Mikoto is also a little concerned about.

What was Shirai Kuroko saying about the conversation between Nanaya and Wannai Kinuho back then? "Forgetting oneself and things? Merging into one?"

Forget both self and things...

That sounds a bit strange. Could it be that the original language is Chinese?

No, this word doesn't seem to exist in the Chinese language.

At least in Misaka Mikoto's memory, there are no related words, and if we were to mention something similar...

"Forgetting oneself and the world..."

Misaka Mikoto stroked her chin.

If I remember correctly, it's this word, and it seems to mean...

It means...

Huh? What was that again?

Suddenly I can't quite remember.

Frowning.

After a long while, he shook his head and shouted outside.

"Hey, bring my phone in."

"cell phone?"

"Investigate a little bit."

"Hi!"

……

shrine.

It was quite late after dinner.

It wouldn't hurt to have one or two more people stay, so we decided to let Saten Ruiko stay here.

I took a shower.

Saten Ruiko walked into the living room, blushing and looking a little awkward.

She was wearing Himegami Akisa's shrine maiden outfit, since she didn't have any spare clothes and had to borrow some.

To be honest, shrine maiden outfits and maid outfits are pretty much the same, and Saten Ruiko is a cheerful person, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

only……

There are clothes, but no panties or underwear, no going bra or anything like that...

And this was happening in front of Shichiya.

She walked to the table and under it, glanced at Qiye who was drawing, and then looked away, blushing slightly.

Even though Qiye can't see it, I still feel a little embarrassed.

and……

He's drawing those inappropriate things for children again.

As expected, Fremia was definitely corrupted by Nanaya.

Then Fremia went on to corrupt Last Order, and then Last Order corrupted all the Misaka Sisters.

After all, Last Order has a habit of sharing all his memories with his sisters.

Saten Ruiko didn't know that much.

"Tears".

"Ah... Hi."

"If you're tired, go and rest. You've already done a great job today."

Nanaya put down her paintbrush and looked at Saten Ruiko.

It must be said that Saten Ruiko is a very hardworking girl, but unfortunately some things seem to have been destined, and she has not yet been able to become even the lowest level 1 ability user.

I won't go into the ability system of Academy City.

As for Qiye, there haven't been any results yet, and it's still unknown how things will turn out.

Saten Ruiko simply shook her head at Nanaya's concern.

"It's okay, I'm not tired."

"Really? Don't push yourself."

"It's really okay."

"Um……"

Nanaya watched as Saten Ruiko bit her nails.

Then he nodded and stood up.

"In that case, come with me."

"Ok?"

"While it's not too late, keep trying. Although cheating with drugs isn't right, I'm going to use some drugs to stimulate your mental power and enhance your perception. Maybe that will help you sense natural energy faster."

This world is becoming increasingly dangerous.

Even after marriage, Mitsuko almost encountered danger, and the people who appeared afterward were all more powerful than the last, so Level 5 was not very useful.

Apart from the first three.

However, even the top three still seemed somewhat powerless when facing strong opponents.

Although Saten Ruiko doesn't need to face those powerful enemies, it's still necessary to let her master natural energy and unleash her own abilities as soon as possible for safety's sake.

"Hi!"

Without thinking twice, Saten Ruiko stood up.

Following behind Qiye, they left the living room and headed towards the underground research lab.

Seven Nights made preparations in the afternoon.

I later received a call from Tsukuyomi Komoe and left, but the preparations were basically complete, and it was no problem to put it into use directly now.

It was a transparent glass tank.

It was filled with a pale green liquid that seemed to sparkle a little, and it looked quite pretty.

Seven Nights picked up a bottle from a nearby table and poured a pill out of it.

"Eat this, then take off all your clothes and go inside."

"...Huh?"

……

Forget yourself and the world, and become one.

The meaning of this is easy to find out.

Misaka Mikoto already understands.

But there are still things I don't understand.

Forgetting oneself and the external world is one thing, but what does "becoming one with one" mean?

To merge with the Seven Nights?
