My Refrigerator Turned Into A Dungeon

Chapter 414

Chapter 414Aura Power

Shark and Yuuki-chan are staring at me with astonished eyes. And their mouths gradually shift from agape to forming the 'i' sound.

"Uh, why are you both looking? I just told you not to look over here, didn't I?"

Then, the two of them start panicking with such force it seems like they'll spray spit.

"If there's a weird squishing sound behind you, of course you'd be scared and look back!"

"What was that just now! Chuu... You were floating in the air just now, weren't you!?"

"Well, I do float a little bit. Even the pixies fly, right?"

"No, the pixies have proper wings, don't they!? How can you float without any wings, Jung!?"

Then, here, Serai-san, who had switched into her Onee-sama mode, joined the conversation with an overly theatrical tone.

"Fufu, surprised? This is aura power!"

""Aura power!?""

"That's right. Aura power is neither ki nor magical power; it's a third form of mental energy. When a person learns to handle this aura power, they can do things like a psychic. For example, yes... like this, see!"

Raising her right hand so it was clearly visible to the two of them, who wore dubious expressions, Serai-san made a stone she was holding in her palm float lightly. Hmm, that's definitely Serai-san's favorite throwing stone, Little Azuki-chan, isn't it? Still, thanks to the results of her mountain training, it seems Serai-san has finally become able to use psychokinesis.

"Whoa... It's really floating!"

"No way, something like this..."

Shark and Yuuki-chan, surprised by this, are staring again with eyes wide open.

Uh-huh, uh-huh. Serai-san has a good appearance and figure, so even her theatrical acting looks picturesque~. Even though everything she's saying is just stuff she got from me, she gets the high school girls squealing, so I really think it's unfair.

Well, putting that aside.

"Ah~, Hinagata-kun. In your Hinagata-kun's Aikido, aren't there techniques like qigong arts that can take down an opponent without even touching them directly?"

"Huh? Ah, YES! According to my grandfather, they do exist, but I've never seen them myself..."

"Hmm, I see. But well, if such techniques exist, then doesn't that mean there were users of such techniques in the past, too?"

"Mmm~, you think so?"

"Maybe it was one of Hinagata-kun's ancestors, or a great senior who could do such things, yo!"

During the conversation, Serai-san made a mischievous expression and threw a small stone my way, so I deflected it precisely with my aura power psychokinesis.

"Eh! No way, was that just now, a distant strike!?"

"Now, I wonder. Actually, I'm just giving the aura power physical directionality and throwing it."

"Amazing! I wanna do that too!"

"What are you saying? You need to learn how to read ki from your Aikido teacher first."

"Ugh..."

"Ah, um! Could you show us that one more time!?"

"Hahaha, but even so, if we dawdle too much, we'll be late getting back. I'll show you again later, so let's get moving for now."

...

And so, with me and Serai-san having changed into our battle suits, we carried Shark and Yuuki-chan on our backs. The two of them are equipped with helmets, supposedly the ones the Serai sisters wore when commuting by bicycle, and are clinging to our backs like baby koalas. ṥ

"Listen up, you two. During 3D Maneuver travel, keep your necks tucked in and your mouths shut. If even a beetle flies into your face, it won't just be a matter of it hurting."

"Yes, understood."

"Hey, you understand too, right, Shark?"

"O-oh... But clinging to this feels gross..."

Tilting my head to confirm with Shark on my back, he glares back at me with narrowed eyes. Well, I get it, he hates bugs, so he dislikes having to hug the Mushiking suit.

"Don't be picky. It's better than clinging to me while I'm barely dressed."

"Uu~..."

Between Shark and Yuuki-chan, Yuuki-chan is taller, so it would be reasonable for me to carry Yuuki-chan, but Shark, wary of the teasing he'd receive while being carried by Serai-san, begged Yuuki-chan to switch.

"Okay, Egetsu-san, I'll go first from my side."

"Ah, I'll follow from behind."

Saying that, Serai-san, with Yuuki-chan on her back, made a stretching-like jump into the trees. From there, she began moving by extending sticky rope. It's a remarkably light movement, hard to believe she's carrying a person.

"Alright, then shall we get going too?"

"D-don't drop me on the way!?"

"Hahaha, well, who knows? Here goes!"

"Ah, hey wait, Jung! Woooaaah!"

Attention, please. This aircraft has already taken off. Hold on tight so you don't fall.
