Chapitre 409: Chapter 403: Rumor
"Okay, no need..."
However, Mikoto rejected the suggestion. She didn't believe these dreams were a turning point in her life, and she didn't think it was necessary to undergo an examination. It was just something strange and insignificant.
(Hmm~)
But Mikoto's refusal brought a smile to Kuroko's face.
"Onee-sama, at least let Kuroko examine you. As your companion and faithful friend, Kuroko will make sure to examine you thoroughly."
With a mischievous smile on her face, Kuroko teleported to Mikoto's bed and began hugging her.
(Ohhh, Onee-sama's pure body!)
Like a Yuri girl enjoying paradise, Kuroko etched this moment into her memory...
"You!"
*Biri-Biri ~
With small electric currents flashing across her body, Mikoto's forehead marked with veins.
"How many times have I told you not to touch me so suddenly!"
"Ohh ~ Ohh ~ Onee-sama's whip of love..."
Receiving the electric shock, Kuroko turned into a black, crispy life form, resembling charcoal. Kuroko fell to the floor, and drool began to come out of her mouth. With a smile on her face, Kuroko was enjoying this.
All of this happened in a certain room in the Tokiwadai dormitories, like any other normal morning.
--------------
After classes, Kuroko and Mikoto gathered at a café in Academy City, inviting their close friends.
One of them is a girl with long black hair and green eyes, with a small white flower on the left side of her hair.
This girl is named Ruiko Saten, 13 years old, and an Esper Level 0.
But despite her level, it didn't stop her from being with Mikoto and Kuroko, two high-level espers. For Mikoto and Kuroko, there were no differences in ability levels; Saten was their friend, and that's all that mattered.
"Heee~ so it's the same dream again."
After hearing Kuroko talk about Mikoto's problem, Saten immediately became interested. As someone who liked mysteries and legends, Mikoto's case was juicy gossip.
"Misaka-san... are you sure you're not dreaming about that handsome boy~ unexpectedly, Misaka-san is interested in such things~"
Putting a hand to her lips, Saten looked at Mikoto with curiosity. After all, in Mikoto's dream, there was a handsome boy whom Mikoto claimed was the most handsome she had ever seen.
"Of course not! Kuroko... you!!"
Mikoto's face turned red instantly, and smoke began to rise from her head due to embarrassment. Of course, these details about the boy weren't something Mikoto would easily reveal. Saten was aware because Mikoto had told Kuroko about it on the first day she had the dream, like a little princess's delirium.
But as the days went by and the dream repeated, Kuroko slipped up and told her friends about it.
"..."
Kuroko smiled awkwardly and turned her gaze away; Mikoto was glaring at her.
"Fine... fine... I don't think Misaka-san is having this dream for that reason."
Smiling and waving her hands, a girl next to Saten responded.
This girl is called Kazari Uiharu, a small girl with short black hair and golden brown eyes. She has thick eyebrows, but her most striking feature is her headband made of artificial flowers.
Uiharu is a Level 1 esper, a member of Judgment, possessing great computational skills that she uses in Judgment to track criminals. Being the same age as Saten and studying together, they are best friends. She is also Kuroko's colleague in Judgment.
"Uiharu is right; there's no way Onee-sama is thinking about a man."
Nodding toward Uiharu, Kuroko knew better than anyone that Mikoto didn't have a man in her life, even in a dream.
The girls continued talking about this strange mystery, and Saten also mentioned the latest rumor in Academy City.
"Speaking of handsome boys, there's a rumor about the birth of the eighth Level 5."
Smiling, Saten quickly showed a webpage on her phone, displaying various urban legends, including that of the eighth Level 5.
"Eighth Level 5?"
This rumor caught the group's interest. It's essential to note that there are only seven Level 5 espers in the entire Academy City, so the appearance of the eighth is significant news. However, until now, this was just a rumor. After all, Academy City hasn't made its existence public.
"Yes! Also, according to the rumors, he is 14 years old and is the most handsome boy in Academy City."
Twirling and twirling her body, Saten was like an enthusiastic fan, with stars in her eyes and speaking with great fervor.
Mikoto, Kuroko, and Uiharu only smiled awkwardly. They didn't know if this rumor was true, but the fact that the webpage even described the appearance of this supposed Level 5 made them shudder.
Unfortunately, there were no images of this boy, so the girls couldn't confirm the rumors. But judging by the long list of comments from girls on this page, the rumors about this boy's beauty were true.
"What is his power?"
Mikoto, on the other hand, was not interested in the appearance of this boy. As a Level 5, Mikoto was more interested in the ability and strength; she would like to have a friendly encounter if he was strong. For the past year, since her ability inexplicably advanced a bit, Mikoto has been waiting for a good opponent to test her power.
And if this supposed Level 5 is strong, Mikoto would seek him out and challenge him.
"I don't know."
Shaking her head, Saten continued.
"That's the interesting part. According to this webpage and the rumors, the boy's ability is a mystery. Still, it's destructive enough to easily bring down a building."
"What?! You don't know his power? That's absurd!"
Kuroko was the first to doubt; if he was a supposed Level 5 but they didn't know his power, it was ridiculous. No wonder Academy City hasn't made this public.
"If that's the case..."
Mikoto also lost interest. All espers in Academy City had their abilities registered, so an esper who hadn't registered his ability didn't exist. This meant they were just rumors.
"What a shame...."
Even Uiharu thought this was just a rumor.
"But that's not all..."
However, Saten shook her finger and continued.
"Although his ability remains a mystery, it's said that this boy is always accompanied by an incredibly beautiful girl with blonde hair, Level 4, and that this girl is very strong, to the point that she's about to advance to Level 5."
Again, the group became interested, and Saten continued scrolling down with her finger, and the webpage showed the rest of the information...
"Level 4?"
"Yes, this girl's ability is called Trans, an ability that allows her to change the shape of her hair... Haaa~what envy, I also want to have an ability like that."
Knowing how tedious and time-consuming it is for women to style their hair, Saten understood that with this ability, the time spent on hairstyling was over. After all, with this ability, her hair would take on any shape she wanted, in addition to staying clean—the envy of every woman.
Kuroko and Uiharu also thought the same and sighed simultaneously; this ability was genuinely useful.
(Trans? Hair?)
Mikoto, on the other hand, brought a hand to her chin and thought deeply. This ability seemed terribly familiar, unfortunately, Mikoto couldn't recall where she had seen it.
Saten continued talking non-stop until her gaze suddenly changed and stopped abruptly.
"It's her!"
Excited, Saten stood up and pointed to the other end of the street, where an incredibly beautiful, short girl was calmly eating a fish-shaped cake. Her blonde hair was long and abundant, reaching down to her knees. Her eyes were as red as precious rubies, and she had two small triangular clips on her head, silver and black, similar to cat ears, securing her hair into two long parallel ponytails.
She wore the middle school uniform, which curiously made her look so cute that people around her found it quite challenging to look away.
Kuroko and Uiharu agreed with the rumor that this Level 4 girl was very beautiful. Saten looked left and right for the handsome boy, but unfortunately, there were no signs of such a person, which disappointed her a bit.
(Is that Yami-san...?)
But even though the group of girls was surprised, Mikoto was in shock.
She recognized that girl; it was someone who appeared in her dreams.
Konjiki no Yami.
"What?!"
Suddenly, the blonde girl turned her head and made eye contact with Mikoto. This made Mikoto's head start to ache, and the blonde girl calmly walked away.
"Onee-sama?! What's happening?"
"Misaka-san?!" x2
Certainly, Mikoto's abnormality didn't escape the eyes of Kuroko and the group. They instantly stood up, worried about their friend.
(What's happening?!)
Mikoto didn't respond to her friends' words; she looked at the back of the blonde girl as she walked away. Unfortunately, the headache was so intense that she didn't have the strength to follow her.
Suddenly, Mikoto's eyes closed, and she fainted on the spot.
"Onee-sama?!"
