#14 - The most common superpowers
Seeing the girl's body, Lin Wuming didn't show any disgust or revulsion, because surprise overwhelmed all other emotions.
Tiger Honey's sudden, unauthorized actions, and her candid confession of her tragic past, brought successive waves of different kinds of surprise, leaving Lin Wuming with no time to react in any other way.
After learning about Tiger Honey's tragic past, Lin Wuming understood where her easily agitated personality came from.
Because of the 'protective coloration' of her ugly scars, and the important responsibility of being a 'mine clearance expert,' Tiger Honey was spared even more tragic experiences; but the painful experiences of her other companions still left a deep shadow on her.
"I don't know if it's fortunate or unfortunate, but thanks to these ugly scars, I didn't end up like the others… as a toy…" Tiger Honey said with a straight face, "And if it weren't for this, I wouldn't have risked showing you like this."
"No, no, no, even without the scars, I wouldn't be turned on by a little girl's body," Lin Wuming quickly shook his head.
Confirming that Lin Wuming wasn't lying, Tiger Honey inexplicably felt even more annoyed: "Hmph, it's just that your body hasn't developed to the point where it can react!"
With a whoosh, before Lin Wuming could react, the corner of his eye caught a glimpse of white—it was the pillow behind his back suddenly exploding, spraying out feathers.
Turning his head, he saw a golden strand of hair deeply embedded in the pillow.
Tiger Honey's superpower—Level 4 'Absolute Penetration'.
Even just a strand of hair, in her hands, can be transformed into the sharpest sword!
"Hey, be reasonable, don't make personal attacks!" Lin Wuming said with a wry smile while propping up his telekinetic barrier.
He really treated her like a little girl, with the余裕 of an adult in his mind; but as a man, he couldn't help but be triggered by this simple provocation.
Not to mention, this girl's attack could also break his defenses on a physical level!
"Cough!" Tiger Honey seemed to realize that what she said just now was a bit too much, and also off-topic. She picked up the T-shirt she had thrown on the hospital bed and put it back on, "I just want to tell you, Teacher Sakurai is really important to me. If anything happens to her, I'll really go crazy."
"I understand, I understand, Doctor Sakurai is indeed a admirable good person!" Lin Wuming nodded quickly, "Put your clothes on quickly."
The girl shook her head, but then stopped her movements: "I'm just explaining the situation, not making excuses for myself. Lin Wuming, I'm really sorry for accidentally hurting you last time!"
Tiger Honey came to apologize and atone.
Not knowing where she learned it, she bowed deeply, and then, feeling it wasn't enough, she added a dogeza.
"Wuming-kun, I've come to see you!" Huangquanchuan Aihui's voice came from outside the door.
"Wait!" Lin Wuming jumped up from the hospital bed, urging Tiger Honey, "Okay, my princess, I really won't blame you, get up quickly and put your clothes on…"
Huangquanchuan Aihui was also a straightforward and decisive woman. After calling out at the door as a greeting, she pushed the door open without hesitation.
The first thing she saw was a blonde girl kneeling on the ground almost naked, while Lin Wuming was standing on the bed as if by a medical miracle…
"What… is going on?" Huangquanchuan Aihui was stunned, and subconsciously wanted to back out.
—Could it be that I opened the door the wrong way? Are kids these days so open? This kind of thing should be under the jurisdiction of the Disciplinary Committee, right?
"I'm apologizing!" Tiger Honey said calmly.
Then she got up and quickly put on her clothes, not wanting others to see the scars on her body.
After a lot of explaining, Lin Wuming finally breathed a sigh of relief and lay back on the hospital bed.
Of course, he didn't stand up because of any medical miracle, it was purely using telekinesis to lift himself up.
If he couldn't explain it clearly, he would have run away.
Fortunately, Tiger Honey wasn't the type to be mischievous or joke around. Although her behavior was a bit extreme, and her views and personality were somewhat unconventional, she was still willing to explain things clearly.
Huangquanchuan Aihui also had a similar personality and temperament, so she was able to listen to Tiger Honey's words—the two of them were inexplicably compatible—and the misunderstanding was thus resolved.
Lin Wuming let out a long sigh. In this situation, it was difficult for him as a man to explain.
He had only been in this world for less than a week, and he didn't want to fall into such an embarrassing situation.
—Indeed, it's best to stay away from this girl, Tiger Honey, as much as possible.
After lying back down, Lin Wuming continued to use telekinesis to peel apples, but before he could eat them, they were divided up by the two women, one big and one small.
Fortunately, Tiger Honey's gift included apples, and Lin Wuming became more and more skilled at using telekinesis to peel apples, so he wouldn't starve.
"Wuming-kun is amazing!" Huangquanchuan Aihui clapped her hands after eating the fruit and praised, "Among the telekinetics I know, no one can use telekinesis as skillfully as you."
Lin Wuming didn't care: "If they were all like me, with their hands and feet broken and unable to move from the bed, they would be able to do this in no time."
Lin Wuming truly didn't think his superpower was anything special. Looking beyond the Toaru universe, telekinesis could even be said to be synonymous with 'superpower,' the most common and widespread type of superpower, so there was nothing to be surprised about.
In addition, he was only at Level 3, not high enough and not low enough. Although he could be considered a 'high-level ability user' in Academy City's classification, if he really faced Level 4 power users or even Level 5 super powers, the outcome of the battle would be without any suspense.
The conflict with Tiger Honey not long ago was the best proof, he couldn't beat this girl who was two years younger than him!
If it were the original 'Kobayashi Nana' or '007', they would probably be satisfied and happy with the current Level 3 power; but for Lin Wuming, who was essentially a transmigrator, Level 3 was far from enough.
Since he had transmigrated, he should either start at Level 5 and charge towards Level 6 absolute power; or simply be Level 0, but possess some kind of more powerful force outside the 'superpower' system like Touma Kamijou.
A Level 3 common 'telekinetic' could only be said to barely meet the passing grade. For Lin Wuming, the greatest value was that he could use it to eat Academy City's scholarships.
Moreover, Level 3 telekinesis wasn't very good in combat, but it was very convenient in daily life, and could be said to be the most suitable ability for his 'lying flat' strategy.
In the end, it wasn't that Lin Wuming had no ambition and didn't want to do something earth-shattering in this new life, it's just that his ability didn't allow it.
If he possessed some kind of Level 5 or even Level 6 absolute ability, or other powers of equal strength, he wouldn't have decided to 'lie flat' and enjoy life so early.
