My System: An Evolved Computer I Made With My Unique Ability—

"It was your fault." Satoshi blamed Kuroe, referring to how everyone in Class 3-1 viewed them as a couple even though it was wholly Kuroe's fault for sleeping which caused the misunderstanding.

"No, it was your fault." Kuroe returned.

"No, it was your fault."

"No, your fault."

Kuroe couldn't help but pout at first before chuckling. She never thought that someone would see her as an equal even though she possessed an extremely powerful superpower. And as for Satoshi, it was a first for him that he wasn't nervous when it comes to talking to a girl. The only girl he ever cared about was Shiroi however, he couldn't bring himself to talk to her in a normal manner. Every time he does, he would end up feeling flustered, and sometimes his face would even redden. They've been friends since childhood but he still isn't used to her company. Kuroe was an entirely different case, however, since he could somehow comfortably talk to her.

"You shouldn't have slept during the class. You know how it is with Knighthawk and I, right? We don't get along that well because of his prejudiced views about me having a superpower and physical prowess. I don't get it though, I'm a rare case and yet he still thinks that I only ever rely on my superpower. And when I proved him wrong, he became even more antagonistic towards me. It just doesn't make any sense." With a shrug, Satoshi let out a sigh before continuing his walk.

"That's how it is with them. Teachers always have a fixed mindset when it comes to students. Not only that, they also have fixed views when it comes to their teachings. That's why when they're proven wrong, they would always assume that it's the student who's in the wrong and not them. You can't blame them though, that thinking is already hard-wired in their brain since growing up and it won't change quite easily. Moreover, our teacher is literally batman, except without the money."

p "You didn't have to do him like that Kuroe," Satoshi said. "So... your superpower's all about mind control, right? Can you also read minds?"

"That's a secret. I can't just talk about my superpower without you talking about yours first... but then again, I'm guessing we're the same, right? I've seen your fight with that alien in the news and I've seen what you've written in your paper. You're also hiding your superpower from the government, huh." Kuroe continued.

Satoshi gulped and didn't say anything. It's not like he was hiding it at all but seeing someone of the same age as him figure it out in a snap made him rethink his actions. If she was able to do that easily, then maybe the other people in the school, especially Knighthawk, might've figured out something too... or so that's what Satoshi thought.

What he didn't know, however, was that Kuroe could really read minds and she wasn't assuming at all. In fact, she already knew that Satoshi's superpower is as complicated as hers but she didn't want to outright tell him what she knew for fear that he wouldn't trust her ever again. With that said, keeping quiet about it isn't that good of a choice either since Satoshi might find out and never trust her again as well. Regardless, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to talk to him again after that so she prolonged the inevitable by indirectly telling him what she was aware of.

"Um... well, you probably wouldn't believe this but... I only ever awakened my superpower a few days ago. That's why I'm pretty above-average when it comes to anything physical. I've survived this long thanks to my physical training after all. Also, I wasn't expecting to awaken a powerful superpower. Even my father commends me for it... I couldn't believe it since he's got one of the most powerful superpowers in the entire world."

"I understand. I guess awakening and not awakening a superpower could both be a curse huh. I've always had my superpower since birth even though my mom and dad never did have superpowers. When I was in kindergarten, I didn't really fit in since everyone there didn't awaken any superpower yet. I thought I was different, and so I distanced myself from them. I never really had a friend until now."

"Wow, that sucks a lot. Good thing you managed to get in on this school. Everyone here has a superpower or two so you don't have to keep your guard up too much. It may be late of me to say this but welcome to the USA." Satoshi continued. He didn't bother extending his hand since that would just make the atmosphere uncomfortable.

The two of them were too engrossed with relating to each other that they didn't notice the daggers that Shiroi was throwing with her eyes. It was only the official second day of school and Satoshi was already being giddy giddy with another girl. But what could she do? It's not like she's dating Satoshi or anything so she didn't have any right to feel jealous. But they've been together longer so seeing another girl with her should be a good enough reason to be jealous. 'Why should I feel jealous in the first place? Stupid Satoshi.' Shiroi muttered under her breath.

"Hoh, I can see a storm brewing over here. I wonder what's going to happen. You know Shiroi, if you keep on distancing yourself like that without claiming your man, he's going to get stolen, you know. Not like I'm implying that you like Satoshi or anything but from the looks of it, you really do like him, don't you? You're probably going to deny it being a tsundere and all but that's so unlike you. You're always outspoken, you know, or maybe that's just a front? Maybe you get bashful as well when it comes to Satoshi? Oh, I see how it is, so you've liked him for a long time. You don't have to be that embarrassed... ah! They're going to the school bus together! Shi— "
