Zongman: Complete Guide to Characters

'Just the slightest change in the past can lead to huge, unknown changes in the future.

Maybe just one more word could lead to the destruction of the world. So generally I won't use my time-travel ability to go back to the past.

But this time, there is a big crisis that the superpower's identity is exposed.'

Kusuo Saiki looked at his elementary school classmates on the playground, most of whom he had no memory of.

Finally, his sight fell on the person he was most familiar with.

"Yeyue... do you really want to meet me?"

Hearing the girl's voice, Saiki Kusuo pondered for a moment, "Are you curious about my future self? I may disappoint you..."

However, in other words, did the me in the past really find some clues and leave on my own initiative? I am indeed me.

The fuse... could it be because of Yeyue? Thinking carefully, Yeyue knew my identity as a superpower from the beginning... Thinking carefully, this girl herself carries a lot of mysteries...

Well——after I finish this matter, I will go meet my future self and have a good chat.'

……

The physical education teacher did not notice the person who suddenly left, and then let everyone move on their own.

Yeyue declined invitations from other classmates to play games, and walked to a secluded place under the shade of a tree, where he knelt down and sat down to rest.

The physical fitness of people exercising on the playground varies. Some are out of breath after running 50 meters, while others can run 800 meters without changing their expression.

Yeyue belongs to the latter.

Her eyes were sometimes on the girl playing skipping rope, sometimes on the boy playing football.

In short, I tried hard to control my gaze from wandering to the system panel of [Saiki K.] that appeared out of nowhere in the middle of the playground.

Saiki Kusuo?

Why is it a boy's name? If the future Saiki Kusunoko went back to the past, then the name on the system panel shouldn't have changed... Oops, oops, I can't think about it anymore...

Empty your mind, empty your mind...

"...Ahhhhhhhh——You've discovered me."

Kusuo Saiki looked at the black-haired girl in the corner, feeling somewhat helpless and a little amused. Quietly, his dusty impression and memory of her became clearer little by little.

"Yeyue, long time no see - no, for you, maybe not long."

Nanzi! It's really exposed!

Hearing the familiar male voice suddenly appearing in her mind, Ye Yue felt helpless. She had tried her best to restrain her feelings.

But, the ability to read minds is really hard to guard against!

"I'm really sorry. I should have told you that this is a passive ability. Haha - I still have a lot of things I'm curious about...

But never mind - for now...'

He was still invisible. He bent down and placed his bony palm gently on top of her head.

Feeling the touch above her head, she looked in the direction of the system panel, and her eyes met with those of an invisible person in the void.

The boy looked away as soon as he touched her.

[Saiki K.'s favorability: 90%]

Yeyue's mind was empty, but she still noticed out of the corner of her eye that the boy's favorability was rising little by little, and then stabilized at the same level as Saiki Kusunoko's favorability, but her own points did not change.

This should be considered the system's ability to correct favorability, right?

This thought flashed through her mind for a moment, and then she felt the hand on her head pause for a moment.

The corner of her eye also twitched slightly.

But he didn't know whether it was his illusion or the boy's deliberate act - in short, he didn't ask any more questions.

"Since you are waiting for me here, don't you have anything else to ask me? If we miss this opportunity, we probably won't meet again, Yeyue. We are not in a hurry yet, and we have plenty of time to have a good conversation."

'that……'

Yeyue forced a smile out of habit, always feeling that the grown-up Saiki Kusuo was more difficult to deal with than the childhood Saiki Kusuo.

"I can probably understand your feelings. Anyone would be nervous if a friend from the future appeared in front of them and changed their gender. But don't worry. I have indeed changed a little, but I am still me."

There seemed to be a faint sigh hidden in the telepathy transmitted by the young man.

Then he saw that the system panel in front of him moved to his side and became shorter.

He imitated the movements he remembered from elementary and middle school and sat next to her with his legs bent. Saiki Kusuo himself felt a little uncomfortable, but like he said, there was nothing to be nervous about.

"It's really nostalgic. You are very curious about my affairs... huh?" Yeyue's imagination is still as rich as before, but unfortunately, I haven't experienced as many things as you imagined.

As for the details... let's make an agreement.'

The corner of the boy's mouth curved up slightly, but no one could see it.

Only Yeyue felt that the atmosphere seemed to have undergone some subtle changes.

Before I had time to figure out what had happened, I heard the boy's voice enter my mind:

'In the future. When you come to see me in the future, we can have a good chat about the things you are curious about.'

The boy paused, "This promise. No - I think it should be considered a request. Does it bother you?"

'……Won't.'

"Then it's a deal."

The future? Ye Yue was also a little dazed by these two words, but her time was out of control and extremely chaotic.

There are countless Saikis in countless parallel worlds. Even if you go to the future, you may not meet the Saiki Kusuo who made a promise with you...

'Okay. I will.'

However, she still made a promise. Everything can be fought for. Who knows?

"Kusuko... Why did Kusuo come back?"

"I am here to revise the past..."

Listening to the young man's detailed explanation, including breaking down his own ability rules and explaining them to himself bit by bit

Yeyue was stunned after hearing this.

In this world where cursed spirits, witches, monsters, and people with special abilities coexist, why does Saiki K. seem so unique? It's as if the setting is not in the same dimension.

"...I'm really sorry." Saiki K. paused for a moment, then echoed in my mind again.

Ah, my thoughts were overheard again, but this is a good complaint, Kusunoki, no, Kusuo!

"...Ah, ah, ah - Yeyue, you are exactly the same as I remember."

"Of course, the person you remember is me now." Yeyue answered as a matter of course.

'That's true.'

Seeing that the young man who was mysterious and gave people a hint of oppression was so easy to get along with, Yeyue relaxed a lot, and his restrained thoughts couldn't help but spread out.

Qi Mu's ability to complain has improved a lot. It turns out that everyone grows, even those with super powers.

But then again, it seems that the grown-up Saiki Kusuo is really a chatterbox. Kusunoki is quiet and doesn't talk much all day long...ah, he looked over here, sorry...

'It doesn't matter. '

'……sorry.'

'It doesn't matter. '

...So embarrassing.

Yeyue lowered her head deeply, and her long black hair on the sides of her face was like a curtain, covering her face.

It won’t be embarrassing—although the psychic wanted to reply like this, but when he saw the girl’s expression, he hesitated and stopped.
