Magical inferiority: quantum control Chapter 083

August 4th / Tournament Day 2

Monolith Code Preliminary Venue

“How is it?”

Mayumi Saegusa, dressed in a white dress and a white sun hat, slowly approached Yoru Chiba, who was busy sitting on a long bench, a smile playing on her lips.

“Almost done. Although the models are different, it won’t stump me.”

Yoru Chiba finished speaking and didn’t pay attention to Mayumi Saegusa, instead continuing to work on the task at hand.

“Oh, right. I’m still using yesterday’s technology to boost your magic activation speed, dynamic capture ability, and other stats to a certain extent. With your strength, I don’t need to do anything extra. Just crush them with your power.”

“Although your and Mari Watanabe-senpai’s performance yesterday must have caught the attention of elites from other schools, you don’t need to worry about it. In the face of true strength, any strategy is futile!”

“All you need to do is adjust your condition and perform to the best of your ability.”

Yoru Chiba explained and then cautioned her, so Mayumi Saegusa wouldn’t feel any pressure.

However, after Yoru Chiba finished speaking, he knew his worries were a bit excessive. After all, Mayumi Saegusa participated in many activities and should be used to it by now.

“Hmm, although it’s a shame, I really want to try the magic you developed, like Mari did, but this is indeed enough.”

Mayumi Saegusa did feel a bit regretful. She had only seen Yoru Chiba’s magic once or twice. This guy rarely used the magic he developed himself.

“Alright, try it immediately. Although there are no problems in theory, it still needs to be put into practice.”

Yoru Chiba finished what he was doing before looking up at Mayumi Saegusa.

However, just as Yoru Chiba looked up, he noticed Mayumi Saegusa was leaning forward, hands propped on her knees, looking at the computer screen in his hands. Then, as Yoru Chiba looked up, he saw something…

“Cough, cough…”

Mayumi Saegusa reacted after Yoru Chiba’s reminder, quickly straightening up in a panic and stepping back two paces.

“You saw it?”

“Saw what?”

“What do you think?”

Mayumi Saegusa glared at Yoru Chiba, her face red and her lips pouting, her tone unfriendly.

“I didn’t see anything. It was too shallow, too small, and indeed very white!”

Yoru Chiba mused, though it was more like he was reminiscing.

“I’m giving you one chance to rephrase that!”

Mayumi Saegusa borrowed a line Yoru Chiba had once said, her tone unfriendly, or rather, her expression was also unfriendly as she glared fiercely at Yoru Chiba.

As for what Yoru Chiba saw, Mayumi Saegusa was just a little shy, as a girl would be. After all, their relationship was already a bit ambiguous. But Yoru Chiba actually mocked her? How could Mayumi Saegusa tolerate that?

“Cough, cough!”

“Promising future!”

Yoru Chiba could only choose a more subtle way of speaking.

“Go to hell!”

Mayumi Saegusa stomped on Yoru Chiba’s foot with lightning speed, then quickly picked up the CAD nearby and ran to the testing area to vent her anger.

“Uh, maybe that was a bit too much?”

Yoru Chiba deeply self-reflected for one second, and then, there was no then.

Who told him he was the one being chased?

After a while, Mayumi Saegusa recovered her smile and walked over. It seemed the CAD’s performance was perfect, which significantly improved her mood.

“All the data is perfect, and it runs very stably. There’s no discomfort at all when using it.”

Mayumi Saegusa looked at the CAD in her hand and said happily.

“Hmm, then there’s nothing more for me to do. I’m going to the spectator stands to watch the matches.”

Yoru Chiba finished speaking and prepared to walk outside.

“Junior!”

“Don’t you have anything to say?”

Mayumi Saegusa said, twisting her body.

“Hmm, it suits you very well!”

Yoru Chiba admired Mayumi Saegusa’s graceful figure, then praised her.

“Hehe!”

“Thank you, Junior!”

Mayumi Saegusa finished speaking, waved to Yoru Chiba, looking like she was shooing him away.

“????”

No?

You’re not doing warm-up exercises?

No need to stretch?

No need for my help?

Why is this script so wrong?

Is Tatsuya Shiba really the protagonist?

Am I just a supporting character?

At this moment, Yoru Chiba felt very hurt.

Then, Yoru Chiba looked at Mayumi Saegusa and couldn’t help but smile.

“Good luck, my President!”

Yoru Chiba waved his hand, then walked outside.

“How about it? How are your preparations for your match this afternoon?”

Mari Watanabe saw Yoru Chiba walk over and quickly gestured to the empty seat beside her, then didn’t forget to ask about Yoru Chiba’s preparations for his afternoon match.

“I have no problem. I only have one match, and the CAD was debugged a long time ago.”

Yoru Chiba really didn’t have much to prepare for. He only had one event, and the total number of matches was only three. All he needed to do was a basic debug of the competition CAD and ensure he could cast magic. There was no need for any extra preparation.

“That’s good, but don’t be careless. If nothing unexpected happens, our First High School will win first place again this year and continue our winning streak.”

Mari Watanabe reminded Yoru Chiba, then began to envision the famous scenes of their winning streak.

“………”

If nothing unexpected happens, something unexpected will definitely happen…

Yoru Chiba felt that in a way, Mari Watanabe was also a prophet.

“Here they come!”

Mayumi Saegusa stood on one side of the tennis court, holding a large pistol-type CAD. Opposite her, a girl in a blue short-sleeved shirt also held an identical CAD. Soon, the match began.

This sport was essentially tennis, but the tennis rackets were replaced with CADs.

Compared to using a tennis racket to receive an opponent’s attack, using a CAD to cast magic to accomplish this increased the difficulty significantly. Whether it was practical control or controlling the force of hitting the tennis ball, it was a considerable test of skill for a magician.

The amount of psion injection, the tennis ball’s coordinates, its trajectory, and other multi-faceted changes were the greatest challenges for a magician.

“Buzz!”

The opponent had already made the first move, and the tennis ball flew over at a tricky angle. However, Mayumi Saegusa’s posture was very relaxed; this was her confidence.

Then, Mayumi Saegusa, holding the gun with both hands, returned the tennis ball at an even more bizarre angle. In just one rally, her opponent couldn’t return it. Mayumi Saegusa’s reaction was incredibly unbelievable to her!

Does this person opposite me not need time to calculate?

She directly predicted my prediction?

Then, the match began its familiar routine of crushing the opponent. Mayumi Saegusa served, and the opponent couldn’t return it. The opponent served, and Mayumi Saegusa returned it, and they still couldn’t return it!

And then there was no then. The scene was dead silent. This match left the spectators wide-eyed and dumbfounded. Many people hadn’t even reacted yet.

Did it start?

It’s already over!
