Chapter 165 (1/2)
Shoujo Grand Summoning Chapter 165: Destiny be matchmaker of foes
Tl: 不是冤家不聚头 was the t.i.tle which translates loosely into how destiny will make sure enemies always meet again. Can also be said about lovers who are quarreling so I tweaked the chapter name.
When they looked back, two people were shocked. One of them, Ikaros got a little bit surprised but she returned to her normal expressionless face in a jiffy. Meanwhile, Wu Yan wasn’t as calm as Ikaros. His shocked expression stayed shocked throughout the silence.
A woman with thick figure and tea-colored hair, a young girl with brown short hair, a tired looking black haired girl, and a young blonde girl…
The ITEM field operatives: Mugino s.h.i.+zuri, Kinuhata Saiai, Takitsubou Rikou, Frenda are all present.
What the f.u.c.k is up with this coincidence. G.o.dd.a.m.nit, what luck!
He face-palmed the instant he saw them and just gazed at the ceiling in a speechless manner. He didn’t know why he would have the luck to encounter these chicks from ITEM but clearly, they aren’t here for him. If they did come here for him, Mugino s.h.i.+zuri would have already used her Meltdowner on him given her personality. She wouldn’t be standing around shouting “You’re so noisy” or something like that…
From the looks of it, Mugino s.h.i.+zuri doesn’t recognize him. That, however, didn’t mean that n.o.body recognized him. By her side, Takitsubou Rikou stared at him. Going by her looks, most likely she had already identified him from his AIM diffusion field. Unknown to him, Takitsubou Rikou is very stunned by what she is seeing at the moment. Her ability told her that the intruder from that night is among them, and there is 2 positive reaction. That’s right, 2 positive reactions.
One from the black haired black eyed boy and the other from the tea-colored hair and eyes girl sitting there!
How can this be…
Her tired looking now had a stupefied look. There shouldn’t be any existence inside Academy City that had the same AIM diffusion field. That’s because the personal reality that gave rise to this ESP powers can never be truly the same! It’s like how there cannot be any two persons that are completely identical in every way in a world. There can never be two completely similar personal reality. Each person has their own expression of cognition and thought patterns. Unique personal reality gives rise to different abilities and that is why Takitsubou Rikou’s ability is indispensable when applied towards identification and tracking.
And yet, here it is. Two identical AIM diffusion field, this really turned her world upside down. That’s the reason why she is utterly confused at the moment.
Of course, she would never have guessed that Wu Yan got his ability from Mikoto, personal reality and whatnot are irrelevant to this discussion. AIM diffusion field is a side effect of possessing an ability, each ability will make the owner emit a certain kind of AIM diffusion field. Given that Wu Yan and Mikoto’s ability is identical in every sense of the word, they would of course possess the same kind of AIM diffusion field.
Now, as to why Takitsubou Rikou instantly honed in on Wu Yan when she discovered Wu Yan and Mikoto had the same AIM field. The reason is intuitive, excluding the fact that the two has completely different body shapes. Takitsubou Rikou doesn’t take that girl with the tea-colored hair as a yuri girl, sending them to heaven and back like that night…
He knew he can’t hide it from her so he decided to just wing it. He looked back at Takitsubou Rikou who was staring at him and smiled at her. Surprised, she quickly lowered her head. She knows the guy still has nudes of her…
Mugino s.h.i.+zuri, Kinuhata Saiai, and Frenda might not have recognized Wu Yan but they still remembered Ikaros. She was their ex-newbie, how can they not recognize her.
“You!” Mugino s.h.i.+zuri was stunned for a bit before killing intention started creeping out of her. She grinned and continued.
“To think a traitor like you dare show yourself in front of me like this!”
Mikoto and the other girls who were about to apologize for making a ruckus became too stunned for words. They didn’t understand what happened. Astrea stood up and shouted back at Mugino s.h.i.+zuri.
“Hey you, don’t speak to Ikaros senpai like that!”
Mugino s.h.i.+zuri turned sour when Astrea shot back at her. The anger she felt from seeing Ikaros instantly exploded and she used her Meltdowner.
Everyone shouted.
“Careful!”
Astrea was startled by this sudden beam of light heading towards her. She steeled up and just as she was about to intercept this feeble beam. A lightning flashed from nearby and intercepted the beam.
Lightning spear vs Meltdowner created spectacular fireworks.
The two attack canceled each other out. Or perhaps it would be more apt to say the attack intertwined and then disappeared.
“Electricity?”
Seeing this lightning attack, her reaction is very malevolent as expected. It’s the same category of ability that rat who had humiliated her used. However, this lightning didn’t come from Wu Yan. Mikoto lowered her hand which is still crackling with electricity and stared back at Mugino s.h.i.+zuri while standing up.
“You just used that move with the intent to kill Astrea didn’t you…”
Mikoto looked pretty normal but anyone familiar with her knew that she is very very furious at the moment.
