＞Currently, data and information are insufficient to clearly specify 131’s capabilities.
However, at the current time when data and information are limited, it is arbitrarily judged to be ESP because it shows similar characteristics to ESP in its most characteristic aspects.
Case 1.
＞Inserted into special crime scenes by civilians by awakened people.
The suspect is referred to as A.
A is presumed to have the ability to hide, and due to this characteristic, no clues to identify the suspect were found at the crime scene.
Accordingly, the association dispatched special hunters.
List of awakeners initially dispatched to search.
1. Awakened number 566 – A person with the ability to transform.
It is possible to transform the body into a half-human, half-animal form based on a wolf, and in this case, the senses of the body, including the sense of smell, increase significantly.
The transformed 566’s olfactory ability has an accuracy and range dozens of times that of a drug detection dog, and based on this, it searches for traces of suspects remaining at the scene.
Total duration – 2 days
Search result: Failed
2.Awakened Number 235 – Mind Reader
Can read the target’s psychology to a limited extent.
235 Conducts interrogations of people who are considered suspects based on their abilities.
Total time – 1 week
Search result: Failed
566 And 235 are the highest level personnel possessed by the association in their respective fields. While the association was experiencing difficulties in the search due to the failure of 566 and 235, 131, a hunter from the United States Hunter Association, was introduced to the scene by an official (unknown). Input.
Total duration – 5 minutes
Search result: Success
131 Succeeded in identifying the suspect using its unique abilities immediately upon entering the scene.
As a result, A’s identity was revealed to be Awakened Person 458.
Awakened 458 is a Grade A stealth combat ability awakener, and the association attempted to immediately form a special team to capture the awakened person alive.
However, 131 notifies that the suppression of the awakened person has been completed and provides his current location.
Upon arriving at the location, 458 was found in a subdued state (suspended state due to mental interference).
Based on the incident, the association raised the grade for the awakened person 131 from A to S-.
***
Jennifer enters a state of concentration to use her abilities.
Chariot looked at her quietly.
Some hope that it will reveal what happened in this place.
And, for some reason, I felt anxious.
“What’s going on, Chariot?”
There was a person talking to Chariot next to her.
At first glance, it looked like it would be around 3m tall.
The forearms exposed under the Hawaiian shirt looked thicker than the waist of most adult men, and were covered in lush golden body hair.
Thick eyebrows connected between them.
And a bright smile that fully exposes his big teeth, as well as wide sunglasses.
He was a person with a generous appearance.
If he were half as big as he is now, people might have gotten that impression from the man.
But the man as he was was too big.
The name of a man reminiscent of a golden bear is –
“Atlas… “
In the world, he was a more famous returnee under the name ‘Dragon King’.
He is the boss of Atlas Jennifer, and it was he who connected Chariot and Jennifer.
“That look. “Are you worried about Jennifer right now?”
Atlas asked Chariot in English with a heavy southern accent.
“Ah. Okay. “Like I just said.”
Chariot had repeatedly advised Jennifer before she used her powers.
-This may be more dangerous than you think.
-If you use your abilities and side effects may occur depending on the target, just give up on this matter.
But Atlas and Jennifer’s reaction to it.
-That’s right, what do you think, Jennifer?
-Let’s proceed.”
-Giggles! That’s right, Chariot.
Tuktuk.
Atlas came up next to Chariot and tapped her forearm in a friendly way.
Chariot’s delicate body looked as if it would collapse if the slightest force was applied to her pot-lid-like arms, but since Atlas was perfect in that regard, Chariot’s body did not shake at all.
“Chariot. What’s going on? You’re not like me today. Once your curiosity is piqued, you’ll rush in without any hesitation – where’s the mad scientist I know gone?”
“…”
Although the expression ‘mad scientist’ was a bit exaggerated, what the Dragon King said was generally true.
Once Chariot was interested, she had the personality of not stopping until it was resolved.
As a returnee, she had the power to make it possible, and those were her words.
Right now, not even the association or the state can do what they want –
He was a returnee.
From the perspective of a fellow returner, the Dragon King could not understand Chariot’s current condition at all.
Worried?
Or worry?
Why?
“Could it be that the owner of that memory is ‘that woman’?”
“…”
That woman?
Cheonma?
Well.
She may be more dangerous than the Heavenly Demon.
‘She is higher than that heavenly demon…?’
Of course, it was a fact that even Chariot found difficult to believe.
But-
The measuring instrument was broken as well.
The same goes for Mikhail having his weapon taken away.
It is also the case that the Demon King and his group suddenly disappeared.
Various circumstantial evidence was fueling Chariot’s anxiety.
Chariot thought about it.
Cheonma.
If it were her, would she be able to cause the same things that ‘that being’ has caused so far?
She couldn’t say for sure. That’s why Chariot’s expression became more complicated.
“…”
The Dragon King blinked his big eyes at Chariot’s reaction.
“hehehe, looking at the reaction, does it really have to do with ‘that woman’?”
“No, strictly speaking – it’s not related to that woman.”
“Is that so? Well – actually, it doesn’t really matter to us what happens.’
“What?”
Jennifer is sitting on the sofa with her arms crossed and her eyes closed.
The Dragon King approached her side and pretended to put his arm around her shoulder.
“Jennifer’s ability is truly amazing. Even if the target is the Heavenly Demon, it is no exception. Of course! Just as it is impossible to put an elephant to sleep with a tranquilizer gun that puts people to sleep, it would be impossible to subdue the Heavenly Demon with Jennifer’s abilities. At least! There is no chance of problems arising from simply reading memories.”
“…”
“Chariot, do you know what? Actually, Jennifer has read your memories.”
“…What?”
“The kid Lee Hwa-rin is like that too.”
“Yes?”
“Mikhail, that girl too.”
“…”
“Even me! But, until Jennifer told me, I didn’t even know that guests came and went in my memory. Just like you guys now!”
The Dragon King was a greedy person.
He had a tendency to make anything valuable his own.
Jennifer was one of the Dragon King’s most prized treasures.
Jennifer’s special yet powerful ability!
It was something I had never seen before even in the world where the Dragon King was transferred.
As a world where the term ‘cheon-oe-cheon’ fits perfectly-
Even in the upper world where giants and dragons reign as masters of the world.
“Demon King? Heavenly Demon? No matter what happens, Jennifer will complete her mission without a problem and return safely. So, put aside your worries about Jennifer. If you ask for help from me and my subordinates, you should show the trust you deserve. “Isn’t that the law?”
“…Definitely. That makes sense. I’m sorry about that, Atlas. I was unintentionally rude.”
“hahahahaha, yes, yes. That’s right. Be as sorry as you can. I wonder why I canceled a mountain of schedules and rushed to Korea a month later. After all, Master Chariot needed help from others and was in debt. “It’s thanks to the opportunity to erase it.”
“What is it, Atlas? Is there something you need my help with?”
“No way! Is there such a thing as this body that needs help from others?”
Atlas smiled greedily.
Perhaps because he had sufficient qualifications, that smile felt pompous on one hand and regal on the other.
“It’s just that his collection has grown. I’m planning to document your debt to me and place it in my collection. Be proud of it, Chariot. That document is first-class, the highest level in my collection. – If not, it will be stored right below that level.”
“I have no idea what you’re talking about, but just know that it’s an honor.”
“hahahahaha!!! Yes, yes! That’s enough! Hmm? Ah! Speaking of collections, something else came to mind.”
Atlas shifted his gaze from Chariot to Mikhail.
“…”
Toward Mikhail, who was still sitting on the floor in a daze.
“Hey Mikhail!”
“…”
“Mikhail!!!”
“…”
“Hmm. This is another rare sight. That girl, Mikhail, looks so entranced.”
Atlas took out a golden-plated, brilliantly shining cell phone from his pocket and took a picture of Mikhail.
“Hmm… Is this level 3? It’s an unexpected gain. It’s not bad. It’s not bad! Of course, I’m not satisfied with this. Hey, Mikhail! Today is the day to hand over one of your ego weapons. “I have to get it!”
“…”
“Huh. I mentioned those things and there was no response, that’s serious. Hey Chariot. What on earth happened to this girl? Did she lose at a trivial sword game?”
“…”
Chariot’s expression became serious again.
“Being defeated by the sword… Maybe it’s something more serious than that.”
“What? There’s something more serious than losing to this girl at the sword?”
“…Stolen.”
“?”
“Nine children’s weapons. Of them, everything except the holy sword was taken away.”
“…”
Tuk.
Atlas dropped the cell phone he was holding on the floor.
“Is that true, Chariot?”
“Yes.”
“Oh my God, this is happening! It really makes me sigh! Mikhail, you pathetic girl! Those beautiful treasures were taken away from you!? I always thought those treasures were too much for you, but no matter what, I don’t want them taken away by someone else. “It was like that!”
aaah!!!
Atlas roared as if he had lost his little toe.
“If you’re going to do this, why on earth didn’t you sell it to me!!!”
“Hey, Atlas… Take it in moderation. Consider Mikhail’s feelings as well.”
“…Yes. I’m like this too, but the person involved must be very embarrassed.”
Huh?
At that time, Atlas tilted his head as if something was strange.
“But that’s it, Chariot. Now that I think about it, it’s a bit strange.”
“What do you mean?”
“As far as I know, that ego weapon will only serve one master.”
Atlas recalled an anecdote related to Mikhail’s nine childhood diseases.
It was a very humiliating episode.
-Is this something you really want? If so, why not take it somewhere?
Mikhail told Atlas, who persistently demanded that he sell his favorite weapons, to stick the magic sword, one of his favorite weapons, into the ground and take it.
-? …!? What is it, Mikhail? Why is this guy doing this?
-Tsk, why are you like that? Magonus said. They say you don’t deserve it.
-Dare! I am the Dragon King! The owner of the Golden Mountain and the ruler of the sky! There is no treasure that I am not worthy of coveting!
-This is not a treasure, but a sword. And, you are ignorant about swords. As much as women’s hearts.
The magic sword did not move.
Compared to the Sword Saint Mikhail, even the Dragon King who had the Sky Continent under his wings was not qualified to do so.
But, those weapons fell into the hands of someone other than the Sword Saint?
Atlas’s expression finally became serious.
“Are you that girl?”
It was the moment when the Heavenly Demon was mentioned once again.
“Huh…! Huh…! Huh…! Huh…!
“!?”
Jennifer began to gasp for breath as if her heart was about to explode.
“Jennifer! Jennifer!!! What’s going on!”
The Dragon King went straight to her and shook her shoulders with his pot-lid-like hands.
“Whoa, the eyes…!”
Jennifer mumbled with her eyes closed.
“Snow?”
“Two full moons… A mouth that swallows the universe… A tail that entwines the world…”
“What on earth are you talking about, Jennifer?”
“Step back.”
At that time, Chariot gave instructions to Atlas.
Chariot’s outstretched hand towards Jennifer gave off a blue glow.

In a moment-
“Huh oh oh…!!!”
Jennifer gasped as if she had been pulled from the depths of the ocean.
“Hey Jennifer! Wake up! What’s going on!?”
“…”
Eventually, Jennifer finally came to her senses and spoke to those who were looking at her with concern.
“…Snake.”
“…What?”
“There was a snake there – a very large snake.”
***
“What are you? Are you suddenly smiling meaningfully?”
“Hmm? Ah. It’s nothing. I’m just happy that you guys seem to be very appreciative of the drinks in our world.”
“…You said it was cola, right?”
“Do fools like this too?”
“Of course! Cola is the representative drink of this world, right?”
“Oh. That’s bold. But you deserve it.”
Ceylon returned to his original world after having a great time(?) With an uninvited guest who visited his spiritual world.
He burst out laughing at the sight of the women sitting elegantly savoring cola as if they were drinking tea.
“What? Why are you suddenly splitting again?”
Kasha, who had been sipping a can with both hands, hesitated and put it down.
“Ah, it’s no big deal. Please continue.”
“I don’t like it.”
“Hey, you! Is this green here different from the one just now!?”
“Oh, about that-“
It was a time when Ceylon was having a great time introducing world cultures to his friends.
“Hmm?”
Ceylon’s gaze turned out the window.
“Everyone, could you please wait here for a moment? I will go somewhere quickly.”
“That’s right.”
“Hmm? Oh, yes. Please come back.”
“I’ll miss you~”
Have I come to recognize this room as a safe space?
They obediently sent Ceylon off.
“Then, Sile-“
After Ceylon placed a strong barrier around the room, he unleashed a space movement magic.
***
“What, what, what, what is this…!? Where are all the kids!?”
Wheeeing-
“aaah!!!”
Hwiiing-
Hwiiing-
“W-what are those golems…!”
A fox with abundant orange hair was wandering lost on the road where golems(?) Were passing quickly.
Adrien was thrown into the middle of the highway because the gate was opened in a bad place.
“Fool…? Where is Ceylon…!”
From her perspective as a person from another world, the sight of chunks of scrap metal running quickly down the road was quite threatening.
Her gaze, greatly intimidated, looked around and desperately searched for her companion.
“Huh?”
At that time, one of her huge cargo trucks approached her.
She ran away down another path, which was also the path of another scrap metal monster.
“aaah!!!!”
It was the moment when such a loud scream came out of Aedrin’s mouth.
“Excuse me.”
“Huh!?”
The presence of a human being, not a scrap metal monster, suddenly felt.
And then her world turns upside down.
In a moment.
“Fool!!!”
She was floating above the road with Ceylon.
“hahahaha, yes it is me! Idiot! Are you okay, Miss Aedrin?”
“hehehehe, yes!”
The fox laughed heartily and rubbed her head in the man’s arms.
***
Same time.
“…Is this this place?”
It’s been a long time since I went out.
And it was a walk.
Cheonma Gimlin.
She came out of her shelter, closed her eyes, and followed only one trace with her steps.
I followed the source of a power I had never felt before.
Arriving at her destination, she raised her head.
It was an expensive hotel located in downtown Seoul.
