After arriving at the publishing house. I was quickly welcomed by a woman with black hair and sky-blue eyes. When she first saw me there was a look of surprise on her face as I was taller than her. My current height should be around 172 cm. So seeing a 12 old boy taller than her that type of reaction is accepted.
But as a professional, she is her supervise vanished. She then escorted me to a private room. We sat opposite each other.
"So Kusugano san it's nice to meet you."
"Likewise, Machida Sonoko san"
"You can just call me Machida san"
"Ok then Machida san"
"Well as you already know I am an editor and after you join here, I will be also your editor."
"I understand so then can you please show me the contract."
"Cutting right to the chase huh, no worries here are the contracts."
Then she hands me a contract. I read it carefully to see if there are any loopholes through which they can force me and also the amount of payment I will get. After carefully reading it more than twice I put the contract down.
"You are really generous with your contract. You are giving me more than the average amount of money for manga and also 15% royalty for every book sold."
"Of course, how can we let such a talented person like you get anything less than the best? If we don't do that won't you be poached in the future?"
"I guess so" saying that I sign the contract.
"Hope we have a prosperous relationship," she says.
"Likewise, Machida san"
"Then when would you like to release the manga."
"Next week will be ok."
"Next week, understood so what would you like your pen name to be."
Pen name huh after thinking for a while I reply "Universal"
"Universal, understood then universal sensei I hope you have a successful mangaka career."
"Thank you"
After having some more talks with Machida I return back to my home. I open the door and say.
"I am back home."
Then I hear footsteps coming from the living room. From there Sora comes and says "Welcome back Oni Chan" while hugging me. I also hug her back.
"Sora you are acting quite spoiled these days."
"I know," she says bluntly.
"Sigh, shouldn't you be embarrassed or something."
"Why would I be isn't it the job of Oni Chan to spoil his cute little sister."
Pinching her cheeks, I say "It seems Yukino has been quite a bad influence on you, or perhaps it was Chika san"
As if annoyed by my comment she says, "Don't think about other girls when talking to me."
Then she pouts and looks away trying to act angry. I know what she is plotting but still, I will have to humor her as her older brother. Then hugging her from the back I say softly.
"Sora I am sorry so won't you forgive your Oni Chan"
After a while, she replies "I will forgive Oni Chan if Oni Chan buys Sora ice cream."
"Ice cream then which flavor do you want, you know what let's go buy it together," I say while breaking the hug.
Being happy with my reply she turns back and hugs me while smiling she said.
"Yay, Oni Chan is the best. Sora loves Oni Chan"
"I too L... care for you" It seems I again can't say the word love. I wonder why that is I can think about it in the future. Sora doesn't react much to it as she is quite used to it.
"Let's go then."
Just like that with various events that happened my life had been going on for two years.
…
…
In the middle of one of the biggest rainforests in the world, you can see quite an unusual site. There is a young man with black hair, sky-blue eyes, and a handsome face floating in the forest. Even though the boy seems to be standing there none of the animals seems to be able to see him.
That boy is none other than our protagonist Kusugano Ryuu.
..
So, this is the current limit of my power I think as I float. For outsiders except my floating, no other abnormal things can be seen but currently, all my psychic power is covering all of the forest.
With just a single I can lift all the trees of the forest and throw it at two times the speed of the sound. Though I won't really do that. As for why no animals can see me the answer is simple, I have created an invisibility clock with my psychic powers.
Now let's address the elephant in the room. You may be wondering how I got to the Amazon forest and the answer is simple I just flew here from Japan. As for my school, it is currently a holiday. Though I have to return home before evening so as not to worry Sora.
After two years my psychic power has grown quite a lot. I can safely say that I am the strongest thing in this world. For humans, it can be considered the same as a natural disaster.
Then now let's talk about my power. After completing all study about science and doing some research I can say that it was helpful, but I shouldn't limit myself just to it.
Otherwise, the flames or other things created by my powers will have a fixed limit which I don't want. The amount of psychic power I have is the same in amount as that of a medium-sized pond. Though the rate of increase in physic power has decreased by quite a lot it is still fast nonetheless.
As for my physical strength, I am already 20 times stronger than an average human. As for why I am in the Amazon forest first reason is to practice and the other reason is for touring it. After all, school is closed and Yukino and Chika san are on tour with their respective family.
It's been a while since I had such free time. My manga will also be published tomorrow so all financial problems are as good as solved.
But there is something that has been troubling me for quite a while now and that is my emotions. It seems to be getting duller every day. I think it's some side effect of my power and I am trying hard to remove it. After all, what is the use of living if you live like a robot without any emotions?
This may also be the reason why I can say 'I love you' to anybody as I don't want to lie. I think exploring the world will help me with my emotions. And I am successful in some regards as I do feel some excitement.
I just hope I don't become some emotionless monster in the future. I can't just live to hope I should make counter majors for such types of situations.
After all, even though I can't say I love Sora. I can truly tell that I care deeply for her. As for anybody else, I can't really say. Maybe Yukino too. Sigh I wonder why emotions are such a hard thing to comprehend. I bet you I will be able to solve the mystery of the universe more easily than solve the mystery of the human heart and emotions.
I think that as I roam around the forest while eating some fruits from there that I never have tried.
Just like that, I have already spent half of my day in the forest. I make myself invisible and start to float toward a high altitude. I am fast but my speed is only Mach 10 half of Koro sensei from the assignation classroom.
So, I speed up, and just in a matter of moments my speed reaches Mach 10. A sonic boom is heard but there is nothing there. Even if they check by satellite, they won't find any traces of me.
Though flying in the sky at such speed when the sea is under you is quite a noble experience that nobody in this world except me will be able to feel.
