Chapter 18: A Glimpse
"Are you looking down on me?"
Tatsumaki's voice was extremely soft, yet it was bone-chilling. Rito couldn't help but shudder slightly and his heart felt cold.
It wasn't just her tone, it was also the fact that he was currently hundreds of metres up in the air while his flying capabilities were being controlled by Tatsumaki, who sounded a little murderous.
"Not at all, she really isn't back home and... even I forgot..."
Rito quickly spoke out.
"That is not what I mean!"
She suddenly shouted and the green glow on her body flickered and suddenly flared up. Meanwhile, Rito himself was subjected to extreme pressure.
"First, you bump into me, that didn't bother me at all. Then, I prepared to leave but you stopped me and said that you would like me to meet me with your sister.... all this time, you have been just screwing around so speak up! What do you want?!"
"I-"
Before he could finish, Tatsumaki snapped her fingers and Rito couldn't even control his mouth as it was shut tight.
"Never mind, I will see for it myself."
She waved her hand and Rito's body flew closer to Tatsumaki as she placed her left palm on his forehead.
She smiled as she saw Rito's wide eyes and flustered expression.
"Do you know, my quirk– Esper, allows me to perform every single psychic action except for looking into the future..."
She looked at Rito and smiled dangerously.
"I don't know who sent you, but I will soon figure it out by going through your.... memories!"
Rito's eyes widened in surprise and anger and he immediately activated his own [Mind Reading] skill as he felt a cold sensation invading his head.
"Oh? You have psychic abilities, too? This makes it even more interesting!"
This was the last thing Rito heard as his mind blanked out and he lost his consciousness.

"Hmm?"
Tatsumaki frowned and looked around. Her mind reading was different from Rito's as she had to start by digging through the deepest memories of the target. In this manner, she is able to understand the true situation of the target and act accordingly.
Currently, she was looking at a dark cell through Rito's eyes. She looked at 'his' hands that were clean and smooth and the cell itself looked like a very expensive hotel room. It would've classified as a suite if not for the iron bars blocking the exit.
Meanwhile, Rito was playing a video game.
The most disturbing thing Tatsumaki felt was even though Rito was completely nourished, he was sitting naked and his whole body, including his private part, was filled with various scars and burn marks.
But the remaining part of his body showcased a beautiful and healthy skin belonging to a thirteen-year-old.
The walls of the cells smelled disgusting. There were even various fluids on the floor and even some of the books placed on the floor were drenched in disgusting looking liquids.
"What the hell is going on here?!"
Tatsumaki had already guessed the kind of this place was, but she couldn't help but continue forwards as she needed to find the true reason Rito contacted Tatsumaki.
It was at this time, the gate of his cell opened automatically and Rito walked out with dazed eyes. Meanwhile, Tatsumaki, who was looking through his eyes, could clearly feel Rito's indifference towards his own situation and the pain coursing throughout his body.
As she kept on observing, she found that Rito wasn't the only one as the whole place looked like some kind of combination of a dungeon and an organisation. There were many kids of varying ages and gender.
All of them were naked while most of them had a body filled with scars.
Tatsumaki almost couldn't control her own consciousness as she wanted to leave the repulsive scene at once. There were many boys that were already castrated while the private parts of girls were filled with dried blood and scars. Some were even equipped with devices that expanded their insides and exposed it to the public.
Tatsumaki couldn't help but glimpse when she saw an old and obese couple wearing luxurious clothes while keeping a gentle smile on their faces.
The moment she looked both of them, Rito's body trembled inside the scene and the whole image started to collapse.
"Hmph, still resisting!"
Tatsumaki snorted as she increased her own power and the memory started to stabilise.
She could clearly feel Rito's fear and helplessness when faced with the old couple and his body kept on trembling.
The situation of other kids wasn't that different as their pale and naked bodies kept on shivering under their gentle gaze.
The smile on the old couple grew even wider and then the obese and greasy old man set his sight on Rito.
"Today, Rito will be—"
"NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"
A deep roar sounded in the scene as the memory immediately collapsed while Tatsumaki received a severe backlash.
Her nose burst out with blood and she quickly opened her eyes only to see Rito's ferocious face.
They both were plummeting down as Rito's palm had already gripped on Tatsumaki's face and kept on falling like a meteor.
Tatsumaki was extremely shocked and angry when she saw Rito's sudden assault, but when she saw his eyes, she found that his pupils had already rolled up and only his whites could be seen.
He was unconscious!
"Don't you dare lay your hands on me!"
Tatsumaki growled and her whole body glowed intensely. Even though she had just received a backlash, it didn't affect her power by much.
"What!?"
To her shock, she found that Rito's weight was growing increasingly high and his body was getting stronger. His breath was extremely hot currently as the vapours near him condensed as he exhaled like a raging beast.
"Fucking Kid!!! Don't underestimate me!"
Tatsumaki's eyes shot in anger and she immediately waved her palms and created a psychic barrier around her skin while she also disturbed the blood flow inside Rito's body.
The situation was getting extremely dangerous and they both were going to hit the ground soon.
As if angered by her attack, Rito roared even louder and the strength of his grip increased even more. His whole body was letting out steam and even his palm felt extremely hot. If Tatsumaki hadn't created a barrier in time, her face could have been damaged.
"You brought this on yourself!"
Tatsumaki's eyes blazed and her hair started to float while Rito felt an extreme pressure on his body. The pressure was so painful that he felt that his body could be crushed. But in his unconscious state, he wasn't able to keep his skills in check and his body felt Extreme pleasure accompanying the pain.
"Hhhaaaaaaaaaaa!"
He shouted loudly and he pressed forward without any care of his physical body!
This time Tatsumaki was horrified. She still thought Rito as an innocent person that was hired to get near her. When she saw that repulsive memory, she was even more convinced of her theory. Till now, she was still keeping herself in check and didn't perform any extreme moves.
But the situation was already critical and she couldn't help but swear out loud that she was forced into this situation by a kid.
"Fuck! I was supposed to take a goddamn break!"
