The Daily Life of Saiki Kusuo in Zoldyck

To prevent any further accidents, Kusuo Saiki kept his eyes closed.

It's now confirmed that only telepathy has been restored to full usability. The telepathic functions of telepathy, such as telepathic communication and illusion, are also still available. It's good that I don't need to speak anymore. As for the incongruity of walking with my eyes closed...

He also found a cotton candy vendor's cowboy hat at the stall, pulled down the brim and mentally prepared himself, hoping no one would notice him.

The telepathic communication you hear has a direction; as long as it's not a Enhancement-type without a thought, you won't run into it. Even if you do run into it, Kusuo Saiki is confident that he won't be the one who gets knocked away.

After resting for a while, once you can use Instant Transmission freely, just go find Kūsuke and ask for the glasses.

Suddenly, the loudspeaker announced: "The first round of the two-player battle in Arena 0 has begun! All participants, including Knights, Survivors, Supreme Victors, and Poor Ghosts, please scatter and enter the arena as soon as possible!"

Oh dear, what are the names of the others besides "Xia Ke"?

But what about the Swordsman? He's the first one out, so it's safe to say he's definitely not going to appear. The Phantom Troupe won't come looking for him, will they?

What will happen if they can't find the knight-errant no matter what? Or...

With a sense of foreboding, Kusuo Saiki lowered his head, pressing down on his hat, and was about to leave the stall.

"Hey boss, I want a cotton candy too!"

Who are you? The boss is a heartless stone now. I'm just a kind-hearted person passing by, eating cotton candy so that my money won't go to waste.

"Alluka, you've never seen this before, have you? It's not common to see on the streets these days, I didn't expect to find it here!"

"Brother, is this delicious? Can I eat it?"

"It's sugar, you'll find out soon! Hey uncle, hurry up and do it, stop touching that hat and trying to look cool! If you press it down any further, you won't be able to see the machine!"

Yay! I have to be unable to see you all. If I can see you, you won't be able to breathe, my silly little brother.

Kusuo Saiki pointed to the box of change lying to the side.

"Huh? It's self-service! The NPCs here are so lazy!"

"Is it because they haven't been able to hire anyone to work here?"

"That's possible..."

My younger brothers are so easy to fool.

Kusuo Saiki, holding down his hat, was about to leave.

At this point, the group had already reached the lower level.

Kuroro stood in front of the toilet with the "Under Maintenance" sign, staring at the 100% realistic stone statue of Gintoki.

The ominous premonition grew stronger. Wait, could this feeling be a premonition?

"Let's open the toilet door and see if it's under repair," Kuroro said.

Stop it, you bastard!

"Or someone could play the role of a knight-errant. Once the petrification ability is restored, everything else will be a piece of cake."

"Captain, how are we supposed to act this out? And isn't the captain the one with the acting skills? Aren't we supposed to go on stage together later?"

"Does the commander want the Peeling Ripper to perform a waltz?"

"I think that deceiving both appearance and mind is a more sophisticated option."

Kusuo Saiki felt the gaze, but he didn't run away. He had no choice; Kuroro had used the stone statue in the toilet to threaten him.

"Most of the funds for yesterday's real estate plan are in Xia Ke's hands. Xia Ke currently has the highest points in the group, and it would be a waste to lose them all by forfeiting because he didn't go to the competition. Just once, help me put it on?"

The voice was already right in front of Kusuo Saiki.

Well, it was because of him that this accident happened, so let's help him out this time.

With his hand pressing down on his hat, Kusuo Saiki subtly transformed into a knight-errant wearing a cowboy hat in the eyes of others.

"Huh? Wait, how did they do that! Who is this person?" Nobunaga was shocked.

Excuse me, I am a superpowered illusionist who can change anything.

Phinks whistled: "Peeling Ripper, your new hat is nice."

Who is the Peeling Ripper? Which eye would confuse me with that being? To prevent these brainless idiots from taking any unexpected actions, Kusuo Saiki pulled his hat down even further, almost covering half of his face.

Kuroro, who had been watching from the sidelines, guessed, "You've been keeping your hat down the whole time, you don't have glasses, do you?"

Kuroro: "I don't have any glasses with me, but you can borrow Shizuku's."

Such a long-winded inner monologue.

Right there in that toilet with the lifelike statue holding the maintenance sign, you can see this world wonder just by opening the door.

Kuroro: ...

How about trying self-adhesive bandages?

"We can completely blindfold you."

"It's for insurance purposes. If I were turned to stone in the battle, all the hard work my comrades and I put in for nothing."

Although it's a two-player competition, and Kuroro's name didn't appear in the battle, the people on the other battle stage shouldn't be too confident.

"Leave the fighting during the match to me."

So, the people at the next battle arena...

Broadcast: "Round 1, Arena 0, Two-Player Battle Begins! Participants, Warriors, Survivors, and Supreme Victors, please take to the arena as soon as possible!"

"Commander, they're calling you to go on stage!" Nobunaga said from the side.

Where is the word "team leader" among the participants?

That guy is him! Is he suffering from chuunibyou (middle school syndrome)?

Who exactly does this nonsensical name refer to as the enemy?

Kuroro pulled off the bandage: "It's time to go on stage. Are you sure you don't need the bandage?"

Kusuo Saiki paused for a moment.

For the sake of avoiding disaster.

"Come on, close your eyes."

Kuroro pulled off his cowboy hat and wrapped bandages around the eyes of the knight-errant before him.

He was already sleepy, and closing his eyes made him even sleepier. After closing his eyes and getting a bandage-covered eye mask, Saiki Kusuo's sleepiness reached a new level.

He started to think things through to clear his head, and there were indeed situations he needed to think about carefully.

He realized that this restoration of his superpowers seemed completely different from the restoration of his superpowers when his soul had transmigrated.

After his powers are cleared, some of his original abilities will reappear during the recovery process. In addition, because his body and mind are at their peak this time, his rapidly recovering superpowers have surplus energy that will generate new abilities according to his needs.

Before his superpowers are fully stabilized, his energy is highly malleable. Although he, as a superpowered individual, has virtually no desires or wants, unstable superpower energy cannot think.

For example, if you suddenly wanted a mountain of coffee jelly, it might actually come true. But think about it carefully, would you really want such a mountain? One coffee jelly is something to savor and enjoy, bringing immense happiness. Three coffee jellies extend that happiness throughout the day. Ten coffee jellies, considering their shelf life, can sustain happiness for three days. A mountain of coffee jelly that you can't finish would definitely get boring... Hmm, is it really okay to draw that conclusion? You haven't even actually tried it. Shelf life can be solved with reconstitution. Such a hasty judgment about getting tired of it is disrespectful to coffee jelly.

Kusuo Saiki snapped out of his daze:

It just appeared quietly, and I don't know if it will stay in the future. If it does, that would be terrible. I'm starting to worry about my mental state when I sleep in the future.

Not only can you hear other people's thoughts, but you can also see their faces with thermal imaging when you close your eyes, and it's 360 degrees without any blind spots. Within a certain range, everyone's privacy is completely gone, both physically and mentally.

Kuroro choked: "...Your Nen ability is so impromptu? Is it only useful for this moment today?"

Thank you for the compliment, but I didn't mean to be so impromptu.

"Then I don't need to remind you of anything, right?"

Kusuo Saiki: It looks like I accidentally kicked something. Was it a soda can?

Kuroro stared at the broken steps in front of him: "..."

Chapter 187 Give it your all, Kusuo A-Meng!

There was a long staircase leading from the arena to the registration area, but now half of it had been kicked away by Kusuo Saiki. Faced with the sudden split in half, everyone on and off the staircase fell into panic and silence.

Kusuo Saiki listened carefully to the thoughts around him and quickly understood. So that's why he kicked down the stairs.

He raised his hand to restore the scene in front of him.

Kuroro: "It's turned into a row of irregular stones."

It seems to have reverted to what it was years ago, tsk.

"However, there's only half of the stairs left. You can go up the other half. Are you able to climb the stairs?"

I'm not disabled, of course I can go up the stairs, you should be careful with your feet.

Kusuo Saiki took three steps. Although his thermal senses couldn't reveal the shape of the stairs, he knew there were stairs ahead and could still move forward in the dark. Moreover, he naturally had some kind of perception of his surroundings, so as long as he focused a little, he wouldn't do something as stupid as bumping into a wall.

The premise is that one can maintain so-called focus while using telepathy and thermal sensing, which is a small matter for superpowered individuals, about 20%... 1.08% and 0.5%.

Kuroro stepped onto the steps that Saiki Kusuo had walked on, only to find that the steps were shaking, then trembling, falling apart, and disintegrating!

Because the steps were no longer wide, Kuroro jumped away and landed below:

When Kusuo Saiki saw Chrollo unnaturally jumping down the stairs due to thermal imaging, he asked, "What's wrong? Did you twist your ankle so quickly after I just reminded you?"

"Slow down, let me go first," Kuroro said.

"The steps you walk on seem to disintegrate and disappear."

What kind of disposable block is this in?

The announcement came over the loudspeaker again: "Participants in the first round, doubles match in arena 0! Those who do not arrive by now will be directly teleported to the arena!"

If there were a teleportation option, we should have used it sooner; the road to the venue is very difficult!

Kuroro used the irregular stones below to jump several times, leaping onto the steps in front of Saiki Kusuo: "Let's go."

Why not just wait for the teleportation?

Kusuo Saiki carefully controlled his steps as he moved forward; he didn't have the skill of leaping up multiple steps in a few steps like Kuroro.

Being able to climb the stairs step by step is already the greatest challenge.

After Saiki Kusuo climbed the steps, the entire corridor disappeared.

The people around him were filled with fear and avoided him.
