I was supposed to be asleep due to the actions of that guy named Maglan, he should be thankful for whatever did they do to me, leaving me with no motivation to seek revenge on him .
But even though my body seemed to fall asleep, my brain was another matter completely, i felt everything in the vicinity as clear as before and maybe even a bit better than before .
I saw Maglan getting reprimanded by the doctor after Morinaga reported what just happened, as she too felt my vital readings change rapidly, but was slow to stop it, she was filled with guilt and without giving that guy named Maglan even a second to explain himself, she guiltily reported all that happened to the head researcher, who was about to dismiss the student of his from the project completely, but he was saved by the weird black Psion wave i unleashed before passing out .
I then found that he berated him harshly in front of Morinaga-san, enough to at least appease her anger a bit, but just as she went to check on my vital readings and the other reports related to my siblings, the teacher and student congratulated each other on the discovery of my second confirmed superpower and the third superpower i supposedly have .
Then the doctor asked the assistant of his to not use the Antinte like that anymore, he said it was only a counter measure installed to make sure that my Psions won't create any havoc, or cause a Psions storm, the assistant blamed his actions on me, saying that i was giving him a weird looks, the doctor then looked at his assistant up and down for a few seconds as if trying to discern something, but he then shook his head a bit and directly slapped the face of his assistant Maglan, a deafening slap that have some of the researchers gasping at how loud it sounded .
Maglan clutched his burning cheek and lowered his face as if to hide his embarrassment, but i saw that he was actually trying to hide the angry expression he currently had from all the onlookers, he was gritting his teeth so hard and his cheekbones kept twitching relentlessly, if he did succeed in hiding his real emotions from his co-workers, he failed miserably to do so with the doctor who was the one most acquainted with his real personality and what he was really like .
The teacher of his merely scoffed at his reaction, but said nothing to appease him, he merely mentioned that even with his assistant contributions to the project, he without an ounce of hesitation will expel him from the project if his reckless actions didn't stop, he also mentioned that from now on, he was forbidden from entering my room or issue any unauthorized order regarding the room, meaning that he wasn't allowed to pull any stunt like the one he did before nor will he able to ask for any more dangerous adjustments to be added to my room .
He was about to try and refute his teacher and i wondered myself what exactly could he have possibly said to get out of this, but i didn't have the chance to see it because the moment he witnessed the stern expression on his teachers face, he quietened down and just nod his head as if agreeing to do what he was entitled to .
After he asked his teacher's permission, he left the room and went to the corridor, the moment he saw that there were no more surveillance cameras around, he loudly and openly cursed Morinaga-san, then and as if that wasn't enough to quench his anger he even began to curse me and vowed that he will take revenge on her through me, he looked at me or i should say that he looked in my room direction and i found myself also focusing on him a bit more, due to the fact that the air around him was becoming strange, my knowledge was giving me a more adequate description of what his aura currently was like .
Sinister, the air around him seemed to become more and more sinister, but as if he felt my gaze, his body suddenly shuddered and the gloomy air around him suddenly dispersed as if it never existed, but i was completely sure of what i previously saw and after witnessing his burst of anger, i made a note to myself, not to let myself fall into that guy's hands, at least not now .
I will try to protect myself enough, i will keep trying to do so until i gain either enough attention or enough power to stand up to that guy, but i can't help but feel that my mind was getting a bit sluggish, i hurriedly tried to see what was going on so suddenly with me, but all i was able to see before completely shut down was a puff of purple like smoke, beginning to swirl in my brain .
I had no doubt that it wasn't there before, my black Psion whirlpool suddenly came into play and began to devour it rapidly and readily, but the moment that the black whirlpool devoured it completely, my mind seemed confused about something, their was some information began to be processed by my brain, but as if in the middle of this process, something happened leading to a complete shut down of my brain and conscious .
My last thought was, i guess i will have some rest, it might be the work of that guy, but i feel the actions of that black whirlpool made things worse, anyway, i will sleep now and devise a plan on how to deal with that guy
first thing in the morning .
I finally understood what had happened to me after i wake up from my slumber, i slept for a whole week, body and mind both were in a hibernation like state, one that continued for a whole, my guess about Maglan being responsible for this, was confirmed when i woke up and a rush amount of information assaulted my brain, telling me that the reason for my slumber was a neurotoxin, something very sinister to use, i came to know the components and how to make this neurotoxin, but i to some extent seemed to have been still affected by it, after it was throughly devoured by the black whirlpool that was now acting like gatekeeper in my mind .
I was confronted by how much time did i slept by the rejoicing voices of the researchers who were in the room in front of me, saying things like :
Thankfully, he woke up it had been a week .
The sample came back to life, thank god .
I was beginning to lose fate of him ever waking up again .
His DNA isn't yet stable, so we can't even try to clone him even if we wanted to .
Then a few minutes later after i awoke, i got inspected by Morinaga-san, she after seeing that there was no problem with me, she released a big sigh of relief and held me in her arms and said sweetly :
Don't worry, the bad guy who did this to you was demoted and got punished severely by the doctor, he won't be able to lay a single finger on you from now on, i asked the doctor to directly turn him to the authorities, but he refused to adhere to my request, saying that demoting him in itself is the most significant punishment he could suffer from .
And when I asked, why should we even continue to work with such an evil guy, the doctor said that he made a huge contributions to the project and that i should be a bit lenient with him, i really don't understand what he was thinking about, he even told me to act more professional, i don't even know what he meant by that, i have been always professional with my work .
But you are really amazing, Yonjuu-kun, normally that neurotoxin he used, should have made you continue living with some untreatable brain damage, where then we will be forced to implant a chip to act in place of your brain instead, but luckily there was no need to, your brain is functioning completely fine and there doesn't seem to be any problem with it .
The doctor also told us yesterday that you are a Superpower User, with two unique magics only available for you to use at that, amazing Yonjuu-kun .
I finally understood why Maglan didn't like Morinaga-san's moral, they wanted to achieve the same goal, but one with willing to do everything he can, no matter how shady it was and the other party wasn't willing to do the same, not even willing to compromise a bit .
She was willing to get angry on my behalf, even though i was nothing but a mere clone, was that kinship, i really can't tell .
I was a bit surprised at the fact that the doctor had announced the information about me having two superpowers, he looked like he wanted to keep it a secret for quite some time, i suddenly felt a tense glare coming at me from somewhere in the facility, i tracked the said glance and found where it originated from, Maglan was glaring again in my direction from his new office, he became a clerk in the department he was supposed to oversee before, his demeanor appeared to be quite ugly, that sinister aura around him become even more intense than before .
With that ugly expression on his face, i don't believe that he get any good lessons from this, if anything i believe his hostility towards me and Morinaga-san might have increased by a quite large margin .
That sinister aura around him kept giving me quite a creepy and unsettling feeling, i really hope to gain enough strength to be able to protect myself from falling into that guy's hands soon, even though i know he was demoted and might not get a chance to get even close to me, i still feel a bit of urgency in my heart, remembering the relationship between the doctor and that guy also told me that there was still a chance that the said doctor might pull some strings to allow him to experiment on me 4 or 5 years from now, just like he previously promised .
Seeing that there was no issues with me, she put me back in the capsule, played with my cheeks a bit then she waved at me and then left .
I was still focusing on Maglan as his stares weren't showing any sign of stopping any time soon so i didn't pay much attention to the retreating figure of Morinaga-san, but a few minutes later i decided to ignore it completely for now and tried to find the guys who were being trained in the facility above .
I didn't see the guy that was cursing at the Yotsuba family before, i thought that he was on a mission outside or something, but i then saw a few guys gathering and staring at the memorial tablet in front of them with a dejected faces, the memorial tablet was filled with the pictures of their late comrades, i was about to focus on something else, when i suddenly found a picture that caught my attention .
It was the picture of the guy who cursed at the Yotsuba family before, his name was Liu Wang, his death circumstances were written under the hanged picture the same with all the other pictures, his circumstances were what caught my attention, " he died fighting a member of the Ten Master Clans", just as he wished, the picture didn't delve in which clan, but i for some reason kept thinking that it was the work of the Yotsuba family .
But it might have been the work of any other family, but i couldn't help but wonder about what kind of conflict did arise between the two parties and which led to him dying, his comrades previously told him to be careful of what he was spouting, there was also the fact that he was still holding a bit of grudge, so he might have provoked someone he shouldn't and ended up dying outside .
I didn't feel a thing about him dying, if anything i was more dwelling on the fact that in maybe a few years to come, i may be also dead, i'm now two weeks old, i sat in the capsule and wondered about when exactly will i be able to use magic, but i suddenly have a thought after looking at the training those guys above me were undergoing .
Why don't i try to make the black whirlpool move in my body in the same way those guys were moving Psions in theirs, the black whirlpool was consist of Psions too after all .
I put that into test, i didn't know what to do first, i subconsciously tried to make the whirlpool first disappear from my mind and turn to into Psions, wanting to test whether will that work first or not .
And as if it was listening to my command, the shape of it in my mind dispersed and without waiting for me to give it any more order, it began to flow above my skin, the first test of mine was a success, i then began to look at how those guys above me used the weird circulation of theirs and one particular way of circulation caught my eyes .
The user of that circulation was a bald headed man, he was using this circulation to stand still in a circle and his comrades were tasked with forcing him to get out of it, his circulation allowed him to stay completely still even against the push of a few dozens of his comrades .
I saw how he invoked the magic and the green magic sigil that appeared under him and what kind of sequence he used, but for some reason i felt his most of those steps weren't needed, if all i wanted to do was to allow Psions to rewrite the Eidos of my body, but i will be using the black magic sequence in mind and use Psions to modify it as i want .
So i noted the way his Eidos changed to allow Psions to circulate in a one designated way and began my own experiment, my very first time trying to invoke phenomena and using magic .
The black Psions that was hovering above my skin and as if they were given an invitation hardly began to gather inside my body, it was quite easy to control the Psions, but just as i wanted to change the Eidos of my body to begin the circulation, the accident happened .
A black sigil appeared under me and a sudden warning came from my brain to body, revoking the whole magic ritual, but that was too late, the magic sigil that only operated for no more than 2 seconds, was enough to invoke a huge earthquake that shook the whole building and wrecked havoc in the vicinity around it, the area of impact was unknown to me, but the shook was enough to destroy the capsule and the holder that was holding it in place forcing me to crash down to the ground, luckily any piece of glass that came my way was instantly devoured, but my body still got some damage from the fall .
Luckily the magic ritual didn't continue for more than two seconds, otherwise this building would have most certainly collapsed on my head if not even worse, i understood perfectly what went wrong with my magic, due to ignoring the whole construction of the magical sequence, i completely discarded the need to calculate the purpose of my magic and the area that should be in effect and i also forgot to limit the amount of Psions used .
Making the magic be invoked without much of a problem, but that magic was with no intention nor a clear designate target nor a limitation ended up going out of control and began to wreck havoc, using the purpose of the circulation and the power of my black Psions to rewrite the Eidos of me and the whole area around me and instead of fixing me in place, it increased the weights of all things in the huge area of effect at once, resulting in the earthquake that just happened, as i finished clearing my thoughts, i heard the sound of the door of my room getting suddenly opened and the one who came was surprisingly the head researcher in this secret institution .
He was stumbling around a bit and his hand was put on his head in try of stopping the bleeding on his forehead, we suddenly exchange glances and he directly said while smiling :
Thank god, that you are safe, hurry up and check him .
