A sorcerer? I am a Warhammer psyker.

Chapter 34 Can you make bombs?

"There are still just as many people here as ever."

Although Aoyama Gakuen's meals are considered good among all private schools, with no drawbacks except for the fact that they can only be eaten in the classroom, a large number of students still prefer the mobile food cart that sells bread to dining in the classroom. After all, they can eat it by hand, which is convenient, quick, and cheap.

When Rio Futaba arrived here after class, a huge crowd of people had already gathered in front of the cafeteria food carts, buying bread.

Being somewhat socially anxious, she was immediately discouraged, and it seemed that her idea of ​​buying bread for lunch was out of the question.

"Ugh"

Because of what happened, Rio Futaba couldn't sleep last night, staring at her phone until 4 a.m. She was lucky if she wasn't late this morning, let alone have time to prepare her own lunchbox.

"Go back and make yourself a cup of coffee."

The girl sighed softly, feeling her empty stomach, and prepared to slink back to her science lab.

"Hi~"

But at that moment, Rio Futaba suddenly felt a rare coolness on her face, a sensation that was rare in the summer heat. Although it was only fleeting, it still startled her, and she took several steps back.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Futaba."

He had only meant to tease her, but seeing Futaba react like a startled rabbit, Kenmei Isayama realized that the joke was ill-timed and immediately put his hand on her shoulder to stop her from backing away.

"Xianming?"

Rio Futaba also realized that the person who had scared her was a "friend" she didn't want to face for the time being, and her eyes widened in surprise.

For her, this was clearly the second shock, far more frightening than the first.

Feeling the hand still resting on her shoulder, Rio Futaba suddenly felt her heart pounding very fast again.

Kenmei Isayama also realized that his actions were a bit frivolous, somewhat like a boyfriend seeing his girlfriend walking alone in the distance, then going up to her and playing a little prank on her before she gets angry and putting his arm around her shoulder.

He could hear unfamiliar students whispering in the distance, saying things like, "How bold!" and "This is right in front of a convenience store!"

So, after Futaba had recovered a little, Kenmei Isayama quietly released what appeared to be an arm around her shoulder.

Rio Futaba looked at Kenmei Isayama, who had suddenly appeared in front of her, and bit her lip.

"Why is Xianming here?"

Instead of answering directly, Kenmei Isayama showed Rio Futaba the bag he was holding in his other hand, a smug look on his face.

"Look at the chocolate bread that Futaba likes."

"I squeezed in and saw there was only one left, so I took it."

The cold drink he had earlier was an iced beverage.

Let's have lunch together.

Chocolate bread

Rio Futaba muttered to herself that if she had the courage to squeeze into the crowd, then this type of bread would definitely be her choice.

Unfortunately, if it were any other time, Rio Futaba would have gladly accepted, but the situation was a little different now, and she was just about to say no.

However, the body, which was starving, was very honest and suddenly emitted a loud protest.

"gu"

Rio Futaba's earlobes, beneath her long gray hair, suddenly turned bright red, and her dazzling golden pupils were filled with astonishment.

"If only I had known this would happen..."

"I should have eaten breakfast."

She's been hungry since midnight yesterday and hasn't eaten anything. Now that there's something delicious to eat, how can her body not react naturally?

So now Rio Futaba's mind is full of...

"This is awful, I just want to die."

Although it was very soft, the slightly "funny" sound made Kenmei Isayama pause for a second. It was mainly because of the contrast that made him so cute. Futaba, who was usually so serious, had this kind of moment.

"Then I'll assume you agree."

Seeing Rio Futaba blushing with embarrassment and lowering her head, too ashamed to look at anyone, Kenmei Isayama smiled and simply took her hand and left.

.

When he took her hand, Kenmei Isayama clearly felt Futaba tremble slightly, but she calmed down afterward and obediently let him lead her.

She was so nervous that her eyelashes were trembling.

Unlike her usual cold, calm, and collected self, Futaba...

She's cuter like this.

Kenmei Isayama glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, then a slight smile appeared on his lips.

When they came from the noisy atrium to the rarely visited laboratory building during lunch break, especially when the two of them entered Futaba's personal laboratory.

Rio Futaba, who had been quite timid just moments before, suddenly felt confident, as if she were on home turf.

"Idiot, we're already here."

Forcing herself to regain her composure, though her face was still quite red, Rio Futaba angrily said to Kenmei Isayama...

"How long do you intend to keep leading me like this?!"

However, her puffed-up appearance in front of Kenmei Isayama made her look more like an angry kitten, giving off a silly and naive vibe, and she had no intimidating power at all.

However, Kenmei Isayama also felt somewhat wronged, because how long they held hands was not something he could control.

"What are you doing"

"Futaba, there's something I want to tell you."

As Rio Futaba watched Kenmei Isayama's head approach and his face draw ever closer, the "deer" that had just calmed in her heart began to pound wildly again. She was so afraid that she closed her eyes and her voice trembled.

But contrary to what Rio Futaba had guessed might happen, Kenmei Isayama simply leaned close to her ear and whispered something like a devil's, slowly saying...

"As for my hand, I actually let go when I entered the laboratory building."

"Why don't you look down and see whose hand is refusing to let go right now?"

"what?"

In disbelief, Rio Futaba followed Kenmei Isayama's gaze and saw...

It was a slender, fair hand, which was Rio Futaba's hand, and it was now tightly holding another broad and strong hand.

It was very clear that because the boy's hands were a bit big, the girl only grabbed three of his fingers.

When did this happen?

Kenmei Isayama had only held onto Futaba because he was afraid she would lose her pace, but he let go as soon as they entered the laboratory building.

But to his surprise, less than a second after he let go, the soft little hand that he had been holding took his hand on its own.

What can he do?

"boom"

Kenmei Isayama could almost see heat rising from Rio Futaba's head, like a CPU overheating.

"Okay, okay, let's eat."

"I'm not kidding you anymore. If I damage your brain, I'll be a sinner against the scientific community."

Kenmei Isayama led Rio Futaba to her usual seat, then took out a chocolate bread and a drink from the bag, tore one open and twisted the other open, and put them in her hand.

Kenmei Isayama stroked Futaba's head as if comforting a child, and said...

"Futaba, filling your stomach is the most important thing right now."

"understood"

Futaba, who had covered her face with chocolate bread, said in a novel-like voice.

"And don't touch my hair, it'll make it messy."

Seeing that she was eating obediently, Kenmei Isayama also took out his curry bread and started eating.

Rio Futaba glanced furtively at Kenmei Isayama, who was munching on bread, and a smile appeared on her face.

Just like when we first met, you noticed that I hadn't managed to get any bread. Without hesitation, you handed me the only chocolate bread you had left, even though I was still a stranger at the time.

It was probably around that time that I started to like the taste of chocolate bread, a bittersweet flavor.

"Futaba."

After eating half a loaf of bread, Rio Futaba felt much better and her heart stopped racing.

"What's wrong."

"Can you make bombs?"

"What are you frying... cough?"

Rio Futaba's eyes widened; she was taken aback by his words.

Kenmei Isayama choked.

Kenmei Isayama looked at Rio Futaba with expectant eyes, and even demonstrated with his hands.

"It's that thing that explodes with a 'BOO' when you throw it out."

If I had that, I'd blow them all up!

Chapter 35 You'll know once you see Futaba

I don't know if it's because the rules of the world in Kenmei Isayama's world are different from those in the [Sacred Temple] dimension, or something else.

There, Kenmei Isayama discovered that it was possible to harm these vengeful spirits using only a chainsaw, without relying on "psychic powers."

The effect is amazing, the only problem is that it's too easy to get stuck. When Kenmei Isayama killed the [Wraith] (Hunter), the Hunter's body was stuck by hard bones that were different from those of ordinary villagers, and that's how the chainsaw was ruined.

Unlike the cursed spirits in Kenmei Isayama's world, which can only be exorcised with cursed power and are immune to physical damage, melee weapons can inflict fatal damage on these vengeful spirits in the [Sacred Temple] dimension.

If bladed weapons are effective, there's no reason why firearms, which are hundreds of times more powerful than bladed weapons, should be ineffective.
