Ch. 3 - Spoiled, Bomberbirds, Exposed Power.

After leaving Segaris General Hospital, in the parking lot I said to Susan.

"Susan, where are we going now?"

Susan still clung to me and did not want to let go. she then said.

"As you wish, I will accompany you wherever you go".

Incidentally, since I was feeling hungry, I planned to take her out to eat. but the first thing to do was to change the patient clothes that I was still wearing because there were no formal or casual clothes at all in the ward.

"Alright, how about we go to the clothing store, then after that we go to a restaurant to eat. what do you think?"

Susan just nodded with a happy smile on her sweet face.

'This woman, still as spoiled as 6000--I mean 6 years ago.'

Finally, Susan and I decided to go to one of the most famous and oldest distros in Tienji city, Mobochrome. We walked on the sidewalk. And along the way, there was so much attention on us.

"Hey look at those two couples, they look beautiful and handsome!"

"Who are they? Are they both celebrities? Or children of the nobility in this city?"

"Aren't you paying attention? Look at the guy next to her, his skin is pale white. Is he from the vampire faction?"

"Yes, it's possible! In recent years a lot of strange phenomena have been appearing on earth. Maybe he's one of those phenomena!"

"Let's take a picture of this strange couple, especially the man next to the beautiful woman. This could be a hot topic for practitioners, adventurers, and hunters!"

I felt concerned for myself after hearing this.

'But... what are vampires, adventurers, practitioners and hunters?'

'Has the earth changed drastically during my absence?'

'Think about it later. What's more important now is that I can't let you guys expose us'.

I thought of a way to cover both of our faces so as not to be exploited by them.

I activated Mind Transmission and said,

"Luna, please use 'Light Blur Unseen' on me and Susan."

[Understood. Light Blur Unseen has been activated.]

'Good. With this, they won't be able to focus their cell phone cameras. There will only be the word "excess bokeh" hahaha.' I laughed contentedly to myself.

Flashbacks flashed, my creative mind made me curse those arrogant guys, and immediately ordered Luna to play a prank on them.

"Luna! These guys are so presumptuous. Let the birds come to them and bless them with filth." I said spontaneously according to what came to my mind.

[Accepted! {Magic Words: Bomberbird} has been activated.]

Instantly my mind's perception felt a wave of energy coming out of my body and spread widely for tens of kilometers. No one could notice it, only the birds could feel it and each type of bird responded to the wave. The various types of birds then flew from all directions to one place and approached the people who had been marked as targets.

Meanwhile, one by one, the people who mocked and insulted me began to hit the rock.

A hype-looking young man wearing sunglasses who had just tried to take a photo without permission, was seen bending the nape of his neck to look at his shot which was dark due to the glare of the sun.

Suddenly, he was visited by a group of birds that flew over his head like bombers, that had reached their target and started dropping the bombs they were carrying.

'Fall landed!'

"Huh?" He looked up at the sky and saw so many birds flying above him. "What the hell are these birds...?"

Before he could continue, he rubbed the back of his neck and found something soft. "Ah... what is this?!" He smelled it and immediately said in disgust, "T-this..*nauseous*... this is po*p!!!"

It was the feces of a 'Hud-hud bird', the stench of which was enough to keep predators away.

A second wave of attacks has also been launched by some bird groups...

"D*mn birds..."

"Ah my glasses!? My new clothes got hit too!!! Woo! Get lost, you bast*rd birds!"

This second attack was launched by a 'Green wood birds', that specialized in attacking its target's eyes by spraying feces with a pungent smell.

The man with sunglasses ran away to avoid the feces bombardment by the birds.

"Get out of the way...! Let me through...!!"

With the support of the pungent smell of bird droppings on his body, the crowd scattered and automatically avoided him before he got closer to them.

Some of the birds were still maneuvering towards him and launched a third wave of attacks by dropping different dung bombs than before. These dung bombs smelled the most like rotten eggs. And the 'bomberbird' this time was a group of 'Fulmar birds'.

While the bespectacled man was running, he slipped and fell backwards because he stepped on bird droppings, the battle scars of another target.

That's man lay unconscious from the impact to his head in a supine position.

This made Fulmar's bombbirds easily drop their droppings all over the hype-clad man's body. now his entire body was buried by bird droppings.

As for those who were just insulting, they only got one attack. but still, they all complained about the droppings from the birds.

"Good job, Luna! hahaha." I actually laughed with satisfaction at the result.

[Thank you, Master. It was so funny to prank them with bird poop~]

'Hmm?' I muttered to myself while frowning.

'Isn't it since I came to earth that Luna has become strange or rather has an expression?'

'Wait, those birds didn't just do it on their own, it must be under Luna's control...? in that case, isn't her behavior also out of the ordinary?'

I was really filled with a big question mark towards Luna.

Never mind, there's something more important for now as we've arrived at the Mobochrome Distro.

"Luna, how much balance is available on this priority debit card?" I asked using Mind Transmission.

[There's still quite a lot left, Master.]

"I see.. huh? So there's still a lot of balance left..." I wondered how Luna could get this money, especially...

''Ah.. w-wait a minute..! Quite a lot? How much is that?'' then I asked Luna again.

"What was the total balance at the beginning?"

[1 Septillion, Master.]

Suddenly my journey came to a halt and I was stunned thinking...

'One S-septillion? isn't that the rarest last Astronomical Numeric on earth???' I felt dizzy when I heard this.

'Isn't this too much? but if it's true then I no longer need to worry about finances. what can't I buy with that much money?' then I asked Luna to confirm again.

"Luna! Please display the balance into the System Panel form."

[Display:]

[Balance: 999.999.999.999.999.999.998.017]

'What the f*ck!? it's real! but why did the number only decrease slightly!? shouldn't I have spent around 547,500 dollars?' I muttered in astonishment.

Before asking further, a soft voice came from my side.

[That's because the exchange rate on the balance is 1:276]

"Ah... why is that?" again I felt dizzy with the strange thing Luna had done. Even though, the Limitless Chamber was also made by her, but why did I feel uncomfortable with this kind of transcendence and nonsense on earth. Luna then replied.

[On Earth, Dinar is the most expensive currency equivalent to 4.25 grams of gold. and one gram is worth 65 dollars.]

"Oh...so it's not 1 Septillion dollars but 1 Septillion Dinars?"

[Correct, Master.]

"O-okay.. fine.. whatever.. huh. Do as you please." I ran out of words to face Luna.

[Yes, Master. As you wish.]

I ended the conversation with Luna, but this last word of hers made me uneasy.

'but.. Ah never mind. Ut's better to focus on what's in front of me.'

I also took the initiative to invite Susan to go to the Ten-star Hotel "HyperLux", which is located in the center of Tienji city near the university where we study. There's the food provided is premium quality and costs tens of thousands of dollars per meal.

However, due to the distance, we were not wearing any vehicles at the moment. So I decided to go to a Jeep dealership and look for a Jeep type that suited my taste.

Susan who is currently back attached to me makes me feel sorry for her. after thinking back, Susan was very loyal to me and still accompanied me in the hospital for 6 years.

"Aren't we both just girlfriends?"

Even though, it could have been if Susan chose to leave me and find another boyfriend.

I wrapped my arms around Susan's waist and kissed her forhead. then, I said in my mind...

'Gratitude is not enough to repay your loyalty.'

'I swear by Subliminal Energy as The mother of Twin energy, I promise to always make you happy and erase all sadness and disappointment. I will make the environment on earth like in the Limitless Chamber to be a comfortable place to live in!'

Vacuously, the sworn oath was recorded into the 'Origin Subliminal Energy' deep inside Nine with the 'Imaginary Subliminal Energy' as the ink. It triggered an unconscious energy explosion that spread widely and caused weather anomalies in various regions. This may causing detected by the powerful people on earth as a threatening existence for them. However, Nine did not notice it.

***

The Hunter Association Center, located in the capital city of Bricksivia, west of Tienji city. The higher-ups began sending A and S level Hunters out to inspect the energy explosion center in Tienji city.

The Adventurer's Association branch, located in the country's second metropolis after the capital, Shining City east of Tienji city. also began to send some top-ranked adventurers.

As for the practitioner elders, both visible on the surface and hiding in the shadows from various regions, they began to come out of seclusion and send people to Tienji City to secretly obtain information.

***

Talking about cars, I'd better compromise with her first.

"Susan, let's go to a car showroom and buy one for our future transportation. How about it?"

"Do you need a car? I actually brought it and parked it in the hospital parking lot" Susan said innocently.

'Isn't that funny? Then why should we bother walking like this if you have a car? How old is my Girlfriend? 27 years old! And today is her birthday...'

"Alright, forget what I said earlier. Let's go to the parking lot to get your car."

"Um.. okay..." Susan's voice sounded unhappy.

"What's wrong? Why do you look sad?"

Susan struggled with her mind to tell the truth.

"I-I.. Um Nine, can we just stay a little longer like this?" Susan's voice sounded very spoiled like a child asking for something from her parents.

But I really Not understanding what she meant, so I could only obey her wishes.

"Alright, as you wish." I said it as if I understood, but actually I didn't understand women's thoughts at all.

Susan smiled again and tightened the embrace in my arms. I wanted to know more about what happened to her while I was lying in a coma. to make her spoiled like this at her age that was no longer young.

It was decided. In the end, I took Susan to eat at the nearest restaurant that could be reached on foot not far from the Mobochrome Distro.

After entering the restaurant, I was already very hungry. Immediately looked for an empty place in the corner of the room and placed an order with Susan who was still attached to my left. When I wanted to go to the sink to clean my hands, she was still attached to follow me.

What annoys me the most, is when we both ate, she changed positions to my right, and her left hand embraced my arm... making it difficult for me to bribe the food.

'Will I get loose and leave, if you don't stick to me? Why do I feel a bit like a pet?'

'No, I still don't know the reason why Susan is like this. This makes me even more curious.' I ventured to ask her.

"Susan, can I ask you something?" Susan took the fries that had been dipped in sauce and said.

"Of course, I will answer all your questions even if it takes years to finalize the answers." Susan said smiling sincerely and looking at her. Susan said smiling sincerely and looking at my face.

'Is she teasing me? Or is this an allusion?' I couldn't think clearly for the time being.

"Um..."

"Hello! Excuse me ladies and gentlemen, I'm interrupting your time!"

'Who!? What bastard would dare to interrupt my moment?' I cursed inwardly.
