Himari: "I... I..."
Said the small girl with her head looking down.
Himari: "I can't tell you."
The expression of the small girl became happy as she made an X sign with her index fingers.
Damian: "THIS IS NOT FAIR. MY FATHER TOLD M-"
Himari: "This is an even bigger reason why I should not tell you about anything."
Damian: "BUT-"
Himari: "You can access the information if you do one of two things. The first thing is if you become a sorcerer."
Damian: "But I already know how to utilize mana and use it in action."
Himari: "An ordinary person cannot see, sense, or even dream of understanding what magic really is. But you are not ordinary, right? This is probably what your father thought you were. An Anomaly, someone with an element so different and strange that it defines the most basic rules of magic, but I can see through you, master Torao."
From the vision of regular and strong sorcerers, Torao was a powerful anomaly who could give a hard time to very strong people. Still, Himari's vision was not ordinary at all.
The small girl could see the aura of an ordinary person in Damian, but his soul... his soul was something she had never seen.
Himari: 'There are two... souls? What is happening? No, it is not only that.'
Himari saw two shining blue lights in the form of a flame, but one of the flames had another shading of colour in him.
Himari: 'What is this?'
The small girl tried to investigate the strange soul. As she looked closer and closer, her eyes became more blurry, and after some time, she started hearing whispering. The more she looked, the purpler the souls began burning. The more purple the soul was burning, the more woulder the voices started becoming.
The voices became so intense that she could not hear anything else. It was as if dozens of people screamed in her ear until someone grabbed her and got her out of this trance.
Damian: "HIMARI ARE YOU OKAY?"
Himari: 'Where was I just now?'
The small girl could feel a liquid coming from her eyes. She got some of the liquid on her finger so she could inspect it better.
Himari: 'Black??? What does this mean?'
Himari looked at the fat boy who was staring at her with a worried look.
Himari: "Please don't worry about me, young master. This is one of my tricks I am used to it. It doesn't hurt at all."
Damian: "This is your element, right?"
Himari: "Huh?"
Damian: "You can look into the life force of an individual and see the progress of their element."
Himari: "Yes, you are somewhat right."
Damian: "So you can see that I don't have an element..."
Himari: "Huh? What are you saying, young master?"
The small girl was confused about the words the fat boy in front of her said.
Himari: 'So he really doesn't know what he is doing."
Himari: "Everyone has an element, even you, young master... do you want to know what it is?"
Damian: 'What????'
Damian was born as the perfect student of the concept of Kinesic Magic, but as a restriction from the universe, he was born without any element.
Damian: 'That's right, I am now in the body of someone else...'
The fat boy's heart was beating extremely fast.
Damian put his hand on his chest where his heart was resting.
Damian: "I... want to know."
The fat boy looked into the eyes of the little girl full of determination.
IN TORAO'S ROOM AT NIGHT
A fat boy was looking at the ceiling while he was covered with a blanket with a naked loli with a towel who was in a submissive position.
Damian: "... My element... is bullsh*t."
As Damian was alone with his thoughts.
In the living room, his stepmother was talking with a man who stepped on a table and was fixing the fire sensor.
"No, miss, there is nothing wrong with the fire sensor."
Said the man fixing the Fire sensor.
Sona: "Is that so... Then if somehow someone were to break the sensor that it could not work... how would I know?"
Said the woman with bags in her eyes caused by lack of sleep.
"Well... I guess you can't... HEY MISS ARE YOU OKAY?"
The woman's eyes were lifeless, as if she had just seen her family getting killed in a war.
The woman's legs could not hold her anymore, and she fell on her knees with her dead eyes.
"MISS STAND UP... PLEASE SOMEONE CALL AN AMBULANCE."
It looks like the first person Torao Takabe had ever mind broken was his stepmother.
THE NEXT DAY IN SCHOOL
The fat boy was standing still like a rock. His face was in shadow, and his arms were crossed. He was looking at a board in the hallway with a serious expression as if he was about to commit a crime.
Damian: 'Torao Takabe is a sixteen-year-old student with little to no exercise and diet in his life. He spends most of his time in his room beating it to legal lolies. He has never sat and studied or tried to fix his terrible lifestyle. Then... HOW ARE HIS GRADES THIS HIGH?'
Torao Takabe: Score: 500/500 Ranking: 1st.
The fat boy was staring at the school ranking with an open mouth
????????: "What happened did you become a mouth breather?"
A handsome boy came close to Damian out of nowhere.
Damian: "Ah, how are you, Aiden?"
Aiden: "Why are you talking like a submissive femboy?"
...........
Aiden Santa
Age: 16
Height: 173 cm
Weight: 53 kg
Status: Experienced
Interest: Unknown
...........
Aiden was one of Torao's best friends.
Aiden had below-average height, and if you strip his uniform, you could see his body that was built like a skeleton. Even with his small height and skinny body, there was something in him that made every girl in school fall for him and made every boy in school jealous, and that was his face. Many girls try to talk to him every single moment when he is alone, but there is a time of the day when everyone is prohibited from speaking with Aiden, and this is when he interacts with Torao and company.
Aiden: "Am I even in the top 200? Oh, would you look at that I am not..."
Aiden hugged his knees in the corner of the room, and like Torao his mouth was open, but instead, he was scared of the idea of his parents finding out about his result.
Aiden: "It's that beta teacher... that's right, he is just jealous of my intellectual. Mom would believe me, right? hehe..."
Every girl looked at Torao with bloodlust.
Damian: 'I swear I am not the one who teaches him to talk like this... The one who did is-"
????????: "KACCCCCCHAN"
Damian: "Him..."
????????: "Kacchan, it looked like you beat me this time, but this was my plan from the beginning."
Said a very Tall, Fat boy with green hair. He wore a t-shirt of a battle costume from "My Hero Academia" that he wore below the coat of his school uniform.
He was also one of Torao's best friends and a first cousin of Aiden.
...........
Andrew Santa
Age: 16
Height: 187 cm
Weight: Very much
Status: Virgin
Interest: Ashley Quinlan
...........
Damian: "Maybe you are right... I mean, is it even possible to get everything wrong?"
Andrew Santa: Score: 0/500 Ranking: Last.
Andrew looked right into Damian's eyes and tried with all of his last hope not to cry.
Damian: 'So he gave his all...'
Damian: 'With every bad quality of Torao, I always thought that he was one of the weirdest and crazy people... but now I understand that he was actually very sane.'
?????????: "DEKUUUUUUUU"
...........
Ashley Quinlan
Age: 16
Height: 180 cm
Weight: Very much
Status: Virgin
Interest: Andrew Santa
...........
Ashley was also one of Torao's best friends and a girlfriend of Andr- *cough* *cough* I mean Deku.
Ashley was also fat and wore the same clothes as Andrew, but her hair was brown.
Ashley: "Deku, we are almost at the same score."
Said Ashley with a happy face.
Aiden: "Oh, so you also intentionally got everything wrong?"
Ashley looked right into Aiden's eyes and tried with all of her last hope not to cry.
Aiden: 'So she gave his all...'
Damian: 'I guess the whole band is here except...'
Damian looked with a gloomy face at Naomi, who was talking with her classmates; her face, too, was sad.
After some time, she saw that Damian was looking at her, and she greeted him with a fake smile and averted her gaze.
Aiden: "Is something wrong? You two were basically inseparable."
Damian: "I don't know..."
Damian: 'That's right, I don't have all of Torao's memories. I just wear his skin. I don't know why Naomi doesn't talk to me... but I know something... I am not Torao. My name is Damian, and I will walk through my path in my ways."
OUTSIDE
A Tall, Fat boy was wearing а tracksuit.
He was stretching before he started running.
Damian: "With a little hard work, I will make this body work the way it is used to work."
The fat boy made a fist.
Damian: "My element..."
