Magical inferiority: quantum control Chapter 062

“Mhm!”

“Then, it’s time to get down to business, Mayumi-senpai, please tell us about the projects you’re participating in.”

“Oh, okay.”

Facing Chiba Yeyou’s sudden seriousness and formal tone, Saegusa Mayumi, surprisingly, also became formal for once.

“The projects I’m participating in are mainly shooting-based: ‘Rapid Fire’ and ‘Ball Scramble’. As long as the equipment for these two projects is adjusted, there shouldn’t be any problems.”

“Understood.”

Chiba Yeyou made a note on his terminal.

“What about Watanabe Mari-senpai?”

“The main project I’m participating in is ‘Surfboard Sprint’. I just need to adjust the equipment for this project.”

“Of course, for other projects, we’ll need to confirm the specific situations we’ll face before making adjustments.”

Watanabe Mari added.

“What magic systems are you two proficient in?”

“I’m more proficient in acceleration magic, composite magic, and perception magic.”

“Understood, and Watanabe Mari-senpai?”

After Chiba Yeyou finished recording, he looked at Watanabe Mari.

“The magic I commonly use is acceleration, weight-increase, and hardening magic, but I’m more proficient in acceleration and movement magic.”

“Okay, I understand.”

Chiba Yeyou nodded.

“You two can go attend to your own matters.”

Chiba Yeyou walked to a table and sat down, beginning to formulate a CAD adjustment plan based on the three competition projects.

“Aren’t you going to arrange tactics and analyze the winning conditions for us?”

Saegusa Mayumi turned around and looked at Chiba Yeyou, who was sitting behind her, with some confusion.

Watanabe Mari also turned around and looked at Chiba Yeyou from the side. Evidently, she was also somewhat confused and hoped Chiba Yeyou could give her an answer.

“Your individual strengths are immense, sufficient for many aspects of play. What more tactics do you need?”

“Isn’t it better to just crush them with sheer power?”

“Besides, Mayumi-senpai, the projects you’re participating in focus mainly on ‘precision shooting’ and ‘rapid shooting’. The venue is fixed. Under these conditions, I don’t think any other unnecessary operations are needed.”

Chiba Yeyou looked up and finished speaking to Saegusa Mayumi, then turned to look at Watanabe Mari next to him.

“Watanabe Mari-senpai, if I increase your strength by thirty percent in your most proficient field, and you still can’t easily get first place, then I can only say, it’s better to replace you early!”

After Chiba Yeyou finished speaking, he ignored their astonished expressions and continued to busy himself with the task at hand.

“This, can this really be done?”

Watanabe Mari asked with some uncertainty. She could hardly imagine what it would be like if her strength increased by thirty percent, but she knew the result: a complete crush!

Saegusa Mayumi had the same expression as Watanabe Mari. This kind of crushing power was simply too tempting. They had never experienced being told, even before starting, that they could enhance their strength through technical support and directly crush their opponents, without needing anything extra.

This was truly arrogant!

“Have you two forgotten that the magic I use is almost entirely outside the magic recording system?”

Chiba Yeyou looked at them, feeling that they had forgotten that he wasn’t merely a technician providing technical support.

“Okay, then I have no problem.”

Saegusa Mayumi suddenly realized, remembering some of the abnormal magic formulas Chiba Yeyou had independently developed, and instantly felt at ease.

“I have no problem either, I’m even starting to look forward to it.”

Watanabe Mari looked at Chiba Yeyou with some excitement, looking like she was determined to defeat her former rivals.

“Alright then, you two shouldn’t disturb me anymore.”

“Alright, junior, you’ve worked hard!”

After Saegusa Mayumi waved goodbye, Chiba Yeyou began to enter his work state.

Unbeknownst to him, the setting sun once again dipped to the west, filling the entire room with a 황 glow.

“Is it already this late?”

Chiba Yeyou looked up at his terminal.

“Hmm?”

“What is this fluctuation?”

Chiba Yeyou suddenly felt a strange fluctuation coming from the third room to his right.

Under the silent activation of “Situation Awareness,” nothing could be hidden. A short-haired boy wearing a Course 2 uniform was closing his eyes, holding a strange piece of paper in his hand, as if performing a ritual. All around him were strange indigo and purple things.

Centered on that room, the entire building seemed to be emitting a bluish-green light, with ghost-fire-like things fluttering wildly.

“I remember the third room to the right of this room is the pharmacology lab.”

“Hmm?”

“This is?”

Chiba Yeyou silently got up, preparing to check out these strange things.

As Chiba Yeyou walked out of the room, he just happened to see the figure he had sensed earlier. This figure was none other than Shibata Mizuki.

At this moment, Shibata Mizuki had taken off her glasses and opened a crack in the door of the pharmacology lab, peeking inside with one eye.

“Hmm?”

“This guy also came up. Has he arranged those people?”

Shiba Tatsuya also saw Chiba Yeyou and nodded at him.

“Who’s there?”

A loud shout suddenly came from inside the room.

“Ah!”

Shibata Mizuki screamed and fell to the ground.

Shiba Tatsuya immediately took action to dispel the ghost fires the moment the sound appeared.

“Tatsuya, and Chiba Yeyou?”

Shibata Mizuki regained her composure and then saw Shiba Tatsuya and Chiba Yeyou behind him.

“Calm down, Ganbiko, don’t misunderstand, we have no intention of causing a conflict here.”

Shiba Tatsuya raised his hands, indicating that he had no intention of harming the other party.

Oh!

So it’s just this guy!

Are these ghost-fire-like things spirits?

Chiba Yeyou looked at these things, and they resembled ghost fires in every way. How could they look like spirits at all?

He really didn’t know who gave them that name.

The second son of the ancient magic family Yoshida, once known as the Yoshida family’s prodigy, with talent even greater than his elder brother, who would become the next head of the family, and highly anticipated by the family.

A year before entering First High, he suffered an accident that damaged his magical power. To compensate for the lost power, he turned to modern magic to find a solution, secretly studying CAD knowledge and modern magic theory, and also learning martial arts to enhance his strength. Despite this, his practical skills in the entrance exam were not ideal, and he was only admitted as a Course 2 student. In the first semester, his theoretical grades ranked 3rd, only behind Shiba Tatsuya and Shiba Miyuki.

He silently recalled the information about this guy, and then Chiba Yeyou once again focused his gaze on these ghost fires. Well, he still preferred to call these things ghost fires.
