The all-powerful middle schooler

Soon, this uncomfortable feeling spread to my eyes.

At the same time, Izumi Hasegawa had just stepped into the classroom when she saw...

"Eyes! Eyes! My eyes..."

Unable to bear it any longer, the girl pushed back her chair, squatted down on the ground, and covered her eyes with her hands to prevent others from seeing.

This situation naturally attracted the attention of the other people in the classroom.

Is my chuunibyou acting up again?

People already had a good understanding of Rikka's behavior, so they didn't take it seriously and thought it was just another performance art piece.

"Rikka, what's wrong?"

Fujiwara Senroku rushed over in a hurry, asking with concern.

Seeing that Rikka was completely absorbed and kept repeating herself, she immediately turned her head and said anxiously, "Izumi-chan, Rikka isn't feeling well. You should take her to the infirmary... no, to the hospital! I'll ask Shichi for leave from the opening ceremony for you!"

"It's alright, it's just a small matter. I'll take her to the infirmary and she'll be fine after some eye drops."

With a quick glance, Izumi Hasegawa was fully aware of Rikka's condition.

The pain caused by the drastic changes to the body is clearly a precursor to awakening.

"Okay then, Izumi-chan."

Fujiwara Chika trusted his judgment more and suspected that she was worrying too much.

Izumi Hasegawa helped Rikka up and headed towards the infirmary.

At this time, the infirmary was still empty.

"Clap."

To avoid being noticed by others, he closed the door behind him and then placed the girl on the sofa to sit down.

"The drug has been prepared."

Izumi Hasegawa found a bottle of eye drops, then clenched her right hand, enveloping it in spiritual energy, and silently recited a phrase.

A strange aura infused the potion, making it appear even more crystal clear.

"Come on, lift your head, Rikka, I'll help you stop the pain."

At his instruction, the girl endured the pain, removed her blindfold, and tilted her head back.

He opened the lid and put in the eye drops.

"Thank you, Sage... uh!?"

Just as Rikka was about to say thank you, she suddenly noticed something was wrong with herself; blood had already filled her eyes.

Two streams of bloody tears cascaded down her cheeks, but her pupils also shifted and changed at that moment...

45 has already taken the shape of a Sharingan.

"My eyes, my eyes...?"

Rikka Takanashi stared blankly, and after a brief moment of astonishment, she understood what was happening.

She has awakened!

Yes, she finally experienced what she had been longing for day and night.

However, although she was delighted, she did not lose her composure.

After all, she had already witnessed many supernatural events before, and her threshold had been raised.

Moreover, it would be rather tasteless to make a big fuss over something as simple as 'gaining power'!

"The Evil King's True Eye user, it seems your ability, which you have reawakened in this world... is exactly the shape of the Sharingan."

Hasegawa Izumi narrowed her eyes and carefully examined the girl's pupils. The original base color had turned blood red, and there were two small black dots. One was a circle in the middle, like the sun, and the other was a magatama around it, like the moon.

This appearance completely overlapped with his memory of the single-tomoe Sharingan.

"That shouldn't be the case. Logically speaking, in a state of reawakening, there should be a comprehensive evolution, resulting in the different characteristics of your Evil King's True Eye and Sharingan."

He looked puzzled.

"Really? I'll come and see for myself."

Rikka Takanashi's heart skipped a beat. She forced a smile, ran to the mirror next to her, and examined her eyes.

So beautiful!

The girl admired it.

This is completely different from the ethereal quality given by colored contact lenses; it possesses an extraordinary beauty.

While she was examining herself, she had already decided what to say.

"My power should also be buried with the past. Although the power of the Evil King's True Eye is very strong, it has also trapped me in a shackle, and it also lacks the power of reincarnation that I need in this world."

Takanashi Rikka turned her head away, wiping the blood off her face with a cool air, and said wistfully.

The first part was obviously a made-up reason, but the second part was the truth.

Hasegawa Izumi could fully sense how deep her obsession was, and that it seemed to be getting stronger than before.

I understand your thoughts.

He nodded, having no objection to the girl's choice.

When awakening, if you want to merge different paths, you will combine the power of the paths, but it does not mean that you can obtain the full power of two paths at the same time. If you only have the Sharingan, you should be able to steadily improve to the level of the Rinnegan, and achieve the ability to communicate with the Pure Land or even revive the dead.

The premise is that 'pure land' and 'underworld' truly exist in this world.

Otherwise, it's impossible to do, unless you can travel through time.

"The new power feels pretty good, I really want to try it out."

Rikka Takanashi looked quite serious, pressing one hand to her eye as if she was eager to try.

As the saying goes, "He who carries a sharp blade will naturally have the will to kill."

The more powerful a person is, the stronger their destructive desires will become.

Therefore, there needs to be an outlet for this venting.

Then Izumi Hasegawa clenched her fist and said with a half-smile, "Then let me be your practice subject."

"Then... I look forward to your guidance, sage."

The girl felt she couldn't show weakness and really wanted to test the advantages that awakening brought.

Although in the Naruto world, a single-tomoe Sharingan as a starting point seems to be of little use, everything has to be compared. In the early stages of the current upheaval, even a slight increase in combat power is very difficult.

Shuchiin High School, being a prestigious institution, was naturally very grand, including its spacious infirmary, which could easily accommodate the two of them for a practice session.

After all, the main contest is just about hand-to-hand combat skills.

"I'm coming."

Hasegawa assumed a starting stance with both hands and, following his usual training method, unleashed a speed and power similar to that of the girl.

I'm different today!

Rikka Takanashi waited intently, the magatama in her eyes starting to rotate, and then she clearly noticed the difference from her previous training.

The sage's seemingly mysterious movements suddenly became traceable, as if a video had been slowed down.

This is the 'observation' function of the single-tomoe Sharingan, which allows her to achieve a reaction speed many times greater than that of ordinary people in an instant.

Left or right?

A feint or a real move?

Unlike usual, when her mind is blank and she can only rely on her trained combat instincts, she now has more time to think and is much more composed.

This alone is already far beyond the limits of human capability.

The sage tried to grab my left shoulder.

Rikka made a decision in her mind, and then jumped to the side.

Hanesegawa Izumi's right hand just brushed past her.

'This is the first time I've dodged a sage's attack so easily. I'm finally one step closer to becoming a sage!'

The girl was thrilled.

"good."

Hasegawa Izumi offered a slight compliment and then launched her next attack.

Next, Rikka Takanashi tried to retaliate, using her Sharingan to lock onto his moves and observe any openings.

"it's here!"

Her eyes fixed on one spot, and she shifted slightly, preparing to use this opportunity to unleash a spinning kick.

However, her kick missed its mark.

"Sometimes, what you see with your eyes may not be the truth, so don't be complacent just because you've gained new skills."

Hasegawa Izumi appeared out of nowhere behind her, then grabbed the girl by the neck like a kitten and whispered in her ear.

"So the sage deliberately created a flaw just now?"

Rikka Takanashi realized that his actions just now were not unusual in terms of speed or movement, nor did he use any magical abilities. He had simply achieved the effect of disappearing by guiding and judging the situation.

Because when she made the leg-swinging motion, her Sharingan also shifted its gaze away from the Sage, thus rendering its observational abilities ineffective.

“That’s right… Your observation skills only work when your eyes are focused on something. Your physical abilities are actually no different from before, so you should also be careful that your body doesn’t keep up with your thoughts.”

He nodded.

"learned."

Rikka Takanashi humbly accepted yet another failure.

Although she has learned a lot from her experiences, she now prefers to spar with other members of the organization.

After all, that's the only way to clearly feel your own progress, right?

The girl's smile at that moment had a dangerous quality to it.

"when……!"

At that moment, the opening ceremony for the second semester also came to an end.

After Izumi Hasegawa waited for Rikka Takanashi to completely wash the blood off her face, they returned to the classroom together.

"Are you alright, Rikka?"

Fujiwara Chika ran to Rikka's desk with a worried look on her face.

"It's nothing. I was just regaining my long-lost power. But powerful power always comes with risks, so I suffered a minor injury."

Rikka Takanashi, with one hand covering her newly put-on blindfold, continued to speak eloquently.

"Hmm...that's good, but don't try to ignore any symptoms! Take good care of yourself!"

Fujiwara Chika believed her words and interpreted them on her own.

"Don't worry, I know my own situation."

Rikka Takanashi nodded.

She didn't openly show off her newly acquired Sharingan to everyone, because that would only bring her trouble.

Some things are like this: when you don't have them, you want to show them off, but when you have them, you want to hide them.

She is no longer trying to pretend to be the 'Evil King's True Eye Wielder', but rather pretending to be a 'self-proclaimed Evil King's True Eye Wielder' with a chuunibyou (middle school syndrome).

After class.

Should we tell everyone this news?

Hasegawa Izumi turned her head and asked.

"Let's give everyone another surprise during the afternoon club activities."

Rikka Takanashi, of course, chose to shake her head.
