Chapter 54: Otakus Are Sensitive Creatures

  Thank you for everyone's voting support, but the rewards and evaluation votes can be slow because I won't get a penny of it, and I'm envious, jealous, and resentful of where the money goes! Also, the previous scene where Toma blocks the light feather falling towards Inti Kisu with his body is from the comic's storyline.

  Above... Although I admit that your pose when you blocked the "Feathers of Light" for Intetsu was really cool, but with me, a crosser, here, some dramatic and tragic events are unfolding, which is really unbearable... Kanzaki looked at Kamijou Touma, who had lost consciousness and fallen onto Intetsu's body, with a complex expression. His hand, which had been placed on the wall to reinforce it, also fell down.

  "Hmm..."

  Witnessing the scene just now, both Kamui and Steyr had complex expressions on their faces. Perhaps these two friends from before Intetsu's memory loss could understand what this reaction represents? Earlier, it was clearly told to that idiot that being hit by the 'Feathers of Light' would have consequences, but he still used his body to block the beautiful yet dangerous 'Feathers of Light'. In comparison...

  "In contrast, as Intetsu's close friend and protector, we are truly derelict in our duties......" Kamitsure broke the silence on site, slightly furrowing her brow, with the veins bulging out of her tightly clenched fist revealing just how terrible she felt at this moment.

  "What a mess! As her best friend and protector, he repeatedly did such excessive things to Intiksa, when it was clear that just asking others would have confirmed everything! The most ridiculous thing is that in the end, Intiksa was actually saved by someone who didn't know magic and had no superpowers... Best friend and protector? What a joke!" Stil's right fist heavily pounded on the reinforced wall of Kaito's room, making Kaito jump in fright; fortunately, he had reinforced it.

  "Ah ah......" Ji Lu hastily interrupted, if he was any later, who knows if these people with muscles more powerful than their brain would have torn this place down.

  "Even if you had consulted with the scientific side about the brain capacity issue, you can't be sure that this is a side effect caused by the Memory Magic Book, right? To take a step back, even if you had confirmed the symptoms on Intikus, if you hadn't met Ushiro no Toma, this freak, you would have been at a loss for what to do, right? So, it's not your fault, but the world... or rather, the person who put this 'collar' on Intikus and hid something from you."

  "I didn't expect that you, who are always sharp-tongued, would also have a comforting side." Still shook his head and continued, "As for the 'collar' on Intik's body, there's no need for you to mention it, we will naturally investigate. But the responsibility we bear, we don't need excuses to shirk from either."

  "That's weird." Kai Tsurugi pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and said, "Isn't this something that should always be coming out of Godou's mouth? Did some kind of bizarre personality swap happen to you guys after the fight? Who would have thought that 'Dragon King's Resentment' had a function like this... Although it's hard to accept, if we can gain an attack attribute like 'transformation' from this, then damn it, Your Majesty, your ultimate move really lost to 'Dragon King's Resentment'!"

  It felt like the end of the world had arrived, with a sudden and intense pain in his chest and back.

  "Although I don't understand what you're saying, thank you for everything you've done for Intikus." Kiriya Rein's left hand, with a big sister-like demeanor, rose to block Stiel's face as he was about to explode in anger, and then bowed slightly.

  So, otakus can't handle people with overly serious and sincere personalities because they are all sensitive problem children. Hypocritical preaching can be refuted, a cruel society can be avoided, but what about genuine gratitude? We don't have much experience dealing with such situations in our lives. If I were a three-nothing otaku, that would be great.

  Facing Shen Lie's thanks, Jie Lü hesitated and scratched his head, saying reluctantly: "No need to thank me, I'm just a passerby who happened to be involved in this matter. Anyway, we won't meet again in the future, so it's not like our relationship will become too familiar. If you guys come over to my place from time to time to freeload food like those two, what am I supposed to do?"

  Just as he finished speaking, Touya thought of jumping out the window on the second floor to commit suicide. Has he become arrogant? As a man, I'm pure, but I've actually become arrogant. Isn't this a specialty of Mikoto Misaka's? Have I been infected from being in contact with her too much recently? Indeed, the air pollution outside is severe, unlike my small ideal village filled with figurines, games, and a computer, where the air is pure.

  "It's better if you don't get involved with people like us..."

  Shinra Kusakabe and Stiyl Magnus had no idea what to think, their expressions simultaneously turning somewhat gloomy. As high-end combatants on the magical side, they had already been exhausted in body and mind from the bloodshed and darkness they had experienced. Previously, they could still hold onto Intimacy Chisato, an existence like a heavenly angel in this world, and leave some light in their darkened hearts. But after encountering such a thing tonight, what face would they use to face that child who laughed like a sprite? Pretend nothing happened? How was that possible? This thing of 'killing' Intimacy Chisato over and over again...

  "Stop thinking too much!" Keiichi glanced at the two of them and knew what they were probably thinking. As he had said before, otakus are a group of people who are extremely sensitive to the attitudes of those around them. Although he didn't want to give up his free time by getting too familiar with them, there were some things that needed to be said: "I'm just afraid of trouble, but if you bring limited edition figurines when you come over, I'll welcome you warmly. Also, don't feel too guilty about what happened to Intikus, because I think you both felt the pain she went through at the time. If I were Intikus, I wouldn't blame you guys either, because it was the best choice under the circumstances. At that time, Ushiro no Tora was still nowhere to be found! The real villain is the mastermind who stood behind and remained unmoved by your pain!"

  Ugh, I guess it's fine if the Black Archbishop is like this. Whatever, anyway she won't be able to shoot seven arrows at once, and it's not like she'd come all the way across the ocean just to bother me, huh? At worst, I'll just spend my whole life hiding in Academy City, see what she can do about that~
