People with superpowers want to be ordinary people

8 o'clock in the morning.

Kamikawa Ren opened his eyes on time, got out of bed and got dressed, all in one smooth motion.

"Today, I must also try to be an ordinary person."

Opening the curtains, Ren leaned against the window and admired the view of the cherry blossoms flying outside, and made up his mind.

He, Kamikawa Ren is a person with superpowers.

Almighty Esper.

He can use all superpowers, such as [Time Stop], [Hypnosis], [Clairvoyance], [Translucent], etc. As long as the power falls within the scope of superpower, he can use it all.

The downside is that each ability can only be used once a day.

But this does not prevent him from being invincible in the world.

As long as he wanted, he could easily destroy the entire earth in just one day.

But why did he do that?

This is of no use to him.

After a simple breakfast, Ren left the house and walked towards the convenience store.

It was now the end of March, and although the wind chill was a bit chilly, it didn't hinder his plans for today.

As a layman, if there is no food at home, the first thing to do is go to the convenience store to refill food for the family.

So, all he had to do today was go shopping at a convenience store like a normal person and then return home safely.

That's a difficult task!

Soon, Ren arrived at the door of the convenience store, suppressed his excitement, and walked in.

This was his first time shopping at a convenience store, so he felt a little nervous.

When he was 6 years old, he accidentally showed his superpowers in front of everyone, and then he was discovered by state agents, put in and imprisoned.

He was still young at that time and didn't know what those people's goals were, so he chose to cooperate with them in conducting some experiments.

Perhaps because his superpower was too dangerous and his mind was not yet mature, at that time his activities were only in ordinary rooms, and he could only go out to move occasionally.

The advantage was that whatever he needed, he just needed to say a word and someone would send it to him.

He doesn't need to care at all.

In this way, he lived in the neighborhood for ten years.

During this period, those people also taught him some knowledge and common sense.

For example: Ren must not endanger national security, he must not abuse superpowers, he must not harm innocent people casually, they hope he can help when the fate of the country is at stake, etc...

Of course, those people also tried to control him. However, they failed.

The reason for the failure was simple, because Kamikawa Ren was an Almighty Esper.

And they paid the price for it.

That is, all the research they had done in the past ten years was destroyed by him, and the memories of everyone who knew of his existence were erased by him.

In other words, all their efforts over the past ten years were in vain.

Thanks to their education, Ren only reached this point without endangering their lives.

He was used to that kind of life, but in the end they insisted on committing suicide.

It's really greedy for a snake to swallow an elephant.

Memories of the past flashed through his mind, but Ren's expression remained unchanged.

It is precisely because of 10 years in prison that he can now feel how beautiful life outside is.

It was precisely because of that that he decided to become an ordinary person and integrate into this society.

Superpowers will only make him different, he just needs to be an ordinary person.

Entering the convenience store, Ren tried his best to pretend that he often came here.

People of this age would definitely come to convenience stores often, so he couldn't be a stranger.

As for how to pretend to often come to the convenience store, he had already checked the strategy on the Internet.

Ren had to say that the Internet was a convenient thing.

The first step is to find what he wants to buy.

His goal today is to replenish his food supply, so just buy some food.

Previously, he had also looked up whether people this age could cook, and the answer showed most of them couldn't.

In order to be like most people, Ren managed to not be able to cook.

Because he didn't know how to cook, he didn't need to think about the ingredients, he just needed to buy instant noodles, bread and other food.

After a little effort, Ren found a bloated food area with shopping baskets.

Looking at the dazzling array of snacks on the shelves, Ren looked a little embarrassed.

While he was at home, he forgot to look for the brand of snacks that people bought the most, which put him in a crisis.

If he chooses snacks that only a few people buy, then he is no longer a member of the majority.

This was undoubtedly a fatal blow for Ren who was trying to become an ordinary human.

It was too late to search now, because no ordinary person would go to the snack aisle to look for what other people would buy.

The current situation, faced by ordinary people, may be a desperate situation that cannot be changed, but for Esper, it can be solved easily.

Ren just needs to follow the people around him and buy the same.

In this way, even though they look different, the two people also look different.

If two people appear different, then it is not different, but normal.

Ren felt lucky for his intelligence.

So, he looked at the woman with long pink hair and wearing professional attire not far from him.

He remembered her name was Kirisu Mafuyu and she was his neighbor.

Ren glanced over there pretending to be casual, and in an instant he remembered the items in Mafuyu's shopping basket.

Now he just needs to buy it.

The first is cup noodles.

After determining his goal, Ren stretched out his hand without hesitation.

The moment his hand touched the shelf, he felt something in his heart break.

"Oops."

Ren immediately realized what happened.

His superpowers are out of control!

Because he has so many superpowers, some of them will accidentally go out of control if not used for a long time.

And his uncontrollable superpower will not be affected by the fact that he can only use it once a day, and can be used infinitely within a day.

For example, if his uncontrollable superpower is [Teleportation], then he can use [Teleportation] unlimited times a day.

But it was clear that his uncontrollable superpower was not [Teleportation].

But enormous power.

This means that its power is now many times greater.

As his strength increased, the shelf he touched, even though he had recovered 99.9% of his strength in time, the power was still not something that the small shelf could withstand.

The place he touched seemed crooked, and the items on the shelves must have fallen. 

[Time Stop].

At this moment, Ren activated his superpower called [Time Stop].

When time stops, the supposed snacks fall against gravity and float in the air.

"This is really troublesome."

Ren needed time to think of a way to cover up the loss of control of this superpower.
