88 – After the Storm (3)
A strangely noisy sound forced my eyes open.
They must have visited the hospital, so they must not be….
My father and mother also let out a sigh of relief and went downstairs, as if they had heard that I was finer than expected.
So uh… Is it built?
With that thought in mind, I raised my head and what came into my field of vision was beautiful silver hair.
… Silver hair?
I must have seen this scene somewhere….
“Senior…. Who is this person?”
When I turned my head slightly to the side, I saw the author whose expression was not visible because his head was lowered.
If you think about it, Kotori Beige is a bit closer to silver hair, but… Seeing the two of them standing like this, the difference between the dyed color and the original color is clear.
A silver-haired woman is looking at me with an expression that makes me feel confident yet arrogant.
It’s definitely a face I’ve seen somewhere.
Where were you?
“Senior….”
I heard the author’s voice filled with moisture somewhere.
I realized the moment I heard that.
“Grid?”
“hehehehe!”
“Yes?”
The author looked at the grid with a strange movement, like a machine that had not been sprayed with WD.
“That, Lee, De?”
“Let’s go~♪”
“?!”
The author screamed indescribably and jumped from her seat.
Then he pointed at the grid and screamed.
“Why, why, why?!”
You might want to ask why she has that look.
However, the author’s question was stopped before she got an answer.
“Here is the hospital. Please be quiet!”
Because her nurse gave her a restraining order to be quiet after yelling at her.
“Sorry, sorry….”
Grid glanced at the author and turned her head away as if there was nothing wrong with her.
The nurse looked at the back of Grid’s head as if it were a little strange, and then left.
The author confirmed that the nurse had completely left, and then she strode toward Grid.
“Why, why are you like that? No, uh, huh? Why why?”
I was curious too.
Why are you there like that?
Grid held out his hand to the author as if to wait a moment and sat down near me.
It looked as if a tendon had instantly sprouted from the author’s forehead.
Grid held a knife in her right hand and an apple in her left.
Are you thinking of cutting an apple?
The author’s expression became more terrifying.
As Grid waited to see what to do, Grid threw the apple into the air.
“Huh?”
And that moment.
Shu shu shu shu shu!
The moment he thought that the light from the fluorescent lights had spread in all directions, the apple that had just been flying in the air split into eight pieces and the grid fell onto the plate he was holding.
“What is this….”
“….”
The author and I had no choice but to stare blankly at the scene.
“Isn’t it different from you?”
Grid, whose tone was somewhat softer than usual, skilfully cut off the peel and bit off the apple.
I thought the grid was right when I saw him eating alone without thinking of giving it to me.
“… Why are you like that?”
“Hmm? How is it, pretty?”
As Grid said, he spread his arms out slightly.
The author looked at the grid with her complex expression, and then she opened her mouth again.
“Why are you like that?”
“Because I need to stay away from Brave right now?”
Grid said that and looked at me.
What does that mean?
“You were in a situation where you could become a monster if you made a mistake, Brave.”
From noble mtl dot com
Grid said that and shook his head.
Ah, as expected, that feeling was right.
The feeling of transforming into something other than human.
“What do you mean by that?”
To the author, who seemed quite shocked, Grid began to explain in a professor-like atmosphere.
“The guy we fought was at least an A-class monster. I was wrong about this too~ I thought so, but if Brave is 4 enemies, then we are 4 too! He said let’s use 4 cores at the same time. So I tried….”
Grid made a strange hand gesture, and then, as if something had exploded, BANG! He groaned and spread his hands from side to side.
“That’s why Brave and I mixed a lot. I came out like this because I thought it was dangerous.”
So that means… Are you saying I’ve become something a bit closer to a monster?
Thinking about it, I feel that my body has become stronger than before… Is not it?
The author, who had been listening to Grid’s explanation with a serious expression, looked at Grid with an expressionless face.
“So why are you like that?”
It’s scary.
“Brave did that. The hero’s sidekick is that women are the national rule. They said that Batman had Catwoman and Iron Man had Pepper Lots.”
So the explanation was that it was revealed in the appearance of a woman.
The author’s gaze shifted from the grid to me.
That cold expression was frightening.
“… I’m sleepy. I need to get some more rest.”
I said that and hid myself under the blanket.
“Senior!”
“If you talk, will the nurse come again?”
I don’t even know what the situation is.
After a fight with a dangerous guy who made me want to die, it ended up like this. Is it my fault?
I’m bored to death.
I just covered the blanket and closed my eyes.
***
Grid said that my body was mixed with the monster.
I don’t know why, but I recovered enough to be discharged the day after I woke up.
Unbelievable things were happening one by one.
On the way back home after being discharged, unlike before, people with hot eyes gathered.
In the past, it felt like every time we solved a case one by one, attention was drawn, but now it was different.
It felt like I was surrounded by passionate fans attending an idol fan meeting.
“How do you feel, Brave?”
“… I’m in a bad mood, so tell me like you normally do.”
“Is that so? Then there is nothing you can do.”
The grid hovered around me, still human.
At first, I was really scared, but after hearing the explanation, I couldn’t help but feel it.
The reason Grid entered my body in the first place was to take away control of my body.
The reason it failed was because the psychic power dwelling in my body protected my body for some reason.
It must mean that he unconsciously used his psychic powers to survive.
For that reason, the grid failed to control my body and became a parasite.
However, the moment the four cores were used this time, the balance was broken.
The energy of the nuclear energy was so enormous that my human body could not handle it.
So Grid said he transformed my body into something non-human to save me.
The aftermath still remained in my body, so I didn’t know what would happen if the grid entered my body.
The reason why S-class monsters have such a large body is to fully use the energy emitted from the core or something.
Certainly, the power I felt at that time was threatening.
“This is your chance to become an Ada bomber if you put your mind to it, Brave.”
Grid, who covered his hair and face with his bread hat pressed down deep, muttered something like that next to me.
A useless bastard.
“Or do other women see pumpkins against this appearance?”
“Close your mouth.”
“… Her.”
As I got off the bus and walked down the street, people’s attention gathered.
Grid was carefully following me at a considerable distance.
“Hey, are you Brave?”
“Yes.”
“Wow! I’m a fan! Please sign me!”
She, a woman who looked like a high school student, held out an autograph and her pen to me.
It’s more troublesome than I thought.
“Your name?”
“Seo Eun-hye!”
I hurriedly finished the autograph and held it out to the woman.
“Here it is.”
The woman who got her autograph from me started hesitating as if she had nothing else to say besides that.
What do you mean, if you have something to say, do it quickly.
“That… Are you busy? If you have time….”
What is hunting?
It’s annoying.
I tapped the woman who spoke to her very lightly on the shoulder and made her look at me.
“I am very busy with hero activities. Will you continue to support me, Eunhye?”
I said that and smiled as normal as possible.
“Yes… yes….”
The student, feeling dazed, widened the distance and opened the way to the house.
Now I feel like I want to rest as quickly as possible.
“Then let’s go.”
I waved lightly at the student who bowed his head and walked back home.
As I trudged forward like that, Grid, who was walking far away, sneaked up on me.
“Ada the bomber is finished.”
“Clean your mouth.”
“It seems to affect the mental state as well.”
“What?”
“Wasn’t the accident rough? The guy who would normally squirm and sign autographs with all his heart.”
“You don’t know, bastard.”
It’s just that everything feels annoying and annoying right now.
I went straight home, took off my clothes, and went to the bathroom.
As I was rinsing my hair with warm water, I felt something was missing.
Come to think of it, when she used to take a shower, Grid would hold the shower head instead and rinse her hair with her hands.
There was such a subtle difference.
I washed her hair and washed off the dirt from her body.
It was a really special feeling to take a shower after 3 days.
The mirror in the washbasin was steamed up, so when I tried to wash my face after scrubbing it with his hand, I saw something strange.
“What is it?”
Somehow, his face feels subtly different from usual.
Should I say that it has changed to a more nimble feeling….
Is it an illusion?
When I went outside after washing my face, Grid was lying on the bed, flapping his legs and eating chocolate.
“Hey, wash it.”
“I do.”
Grid got up and began to take off his clothes.
“Hey… But where did you get those clothes from?”
“I bought it with your own money.”
“This bastard?”
“I had a good time watching it, so I’m going to use this as a teacher.”
As Grid said, he posed for me to show off his figure.
“Go away!”
“hehehehe!”
Grid went into the bathroom making a strange noise.
Ah….
This is not because of the grid’s appearance.
Humbert The day the son of a b*tch warned me was near, so I didn’t get enough sleep, and I just didn’t have time for that.
f*ck.
***
After coming out of the shower, Grid seemed to have no intention of covering himself.
Still, I didn’t feel much.
“Keuhehehehe, did you do it?”
f*ck.
Because it’s a baby that transcends humans, it seems that it has a sensitive sense of smell.
“What is that… Just make it look normal, you bastard.”
“If this is not a normal appearance, what is it?”
I don’t know where the appearance, which seems to come out of a cartoon with silver hair and red eyes, is ordinary.
“Ah, did you like men?”
Grid spewed such bullsh*t and changed his appearance.
No, to be precise, my chest has retracted, my shoulders have widened, my pelvis has disappeared, and my height has only increased.
The hair was still long, and the silver hair and red eyes were still the same.
“No, if you are going to change, change everything.”
“A troublesome bastard.”
This time his hair was shortened.
This is better.
But something… I felt strange.
“Does it feel strange being in the same room as a male?”
I guess that’s how it feels.
“A bastard with a lot of expectations.”
Grid transformed his body once again with a sigh.
This time it looked like a fairy the size of my palm.
“Is this okay?”
“You said you went outside, are you okay?”
“It doesn’t matter because there are no nuclear weapons.”
But how do you stay fit?
“We are using nuclei to recreate human organs, and the organs are replacing the nucleus. It’s because humans have ‘learned’ how to use psychic powers even though they don’t have a nuclear nucleus.”
If the body structure is exactly the same as that of humans, can you call it a monster?
Hmm….
