Chapter 115 Mysterious Light
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
I prepared myself, sat cross-legged in front of the low table, said thank you and prayed to Kondou-senpai, and started meditating.
Not being recognized, huh… That’s nice. I’m jealous.
The Tsuchimiya mask covers the whole head, but not being seen at all would be even safer. I wonder if that’s possible in the special zone.
Oh, I got distracted… I need to focus.
As I concentrate, my view gets smaller, and I only see the Tsuchimiya mask on the table.
When I’m fully focused, everything turns bright white and gold, and I hold the mask in my left hand and a sewing needle in my right.
If I keep concentrating, a small light appears where I need to sew. When I gently push the needle through that light, it goes in easily.
At first, it was hard to push the needle through the leather, but maybe I’m better at sewing now, or because I’m so focused, it’s easy now.
Right now, I’m just focused on fixing the Tsuchimiya mask perfectly.
Even so, I feel happy and proud with each perfect stitch, and I keep going.
A light gathers at the needle’s tip.
When I’m ready, another light appears, and I push the needle through, letting the light drop.
It takes a long time, but to me, it feels like it’s over quickly.
Sometimes, I make a perfect stitch.
I feel something from inside me go into the needle. The needle’s tip shines brightly, and small lights gather from around me, making it stronger. It’s like a big energy blast.
Here it comes, here it comes, here it comes──IT’S HERE!!
Everyone in the other world, give me a little power!
I’m very focused, but my body moves smoothly like a machine.
When the needle goes through the light, the shine stays for a bit, then disappears into the leather. At that moment, I feel the mask pulse, like my soul is in it.
Great! This is the best result!
”Are you stupid!?”
Suddenly, my head hurts with a loud bang.
I turn around, surprised, and see Higurashi holding a fan, breathing hard and looking down at me.
”Whoa! Higurashi!? What are you doing all of a sudden!?”
I’m pulled back to reality after losing focus, and even I, who’s usually calm, am upset now.
”Be quiet! What were you doing just now?”
”I was fixing the Tsuchimiya Mask. Don’t interrupt me.”
”It looked like a strange ritual! It was glowing a lot!”
”Oh… So you saw it glowing too. Does that mean I’m as good as a real craftsman?”
”There’s no such thing as a glowing craftsman!”
”This is another world, so maybe it’s possible. I don’t know.”
”I’ve been thinking this for a while, but has Tsuchimiya-senpai gone to a completely different world?”
”I don’t understand what you mean.”
Well, I’m level 1, but I’m getting skills and magic, so my situation is probably different from others.
”Darn, I lost my focus. Getting to that point is really hard.”
That’s enough for today. After securing the thread and cutting it, Higurashi took the sewing needle from my hand.
”Hey! What are you doing!?”
”I wanted to sew too. This needle works well, so I’ll take it.”
”That’s the one I always use! Don’t take it! Use another one!”
There are many needles, but I always use the same one. It doesn’t look special, but to me, it shines, and I pick it without thinking.
”No! I want this one! I’m keeping it!”
Higurashi tried to move away from my hand and sat heavily on the bed’s edge. For a moment, her skirt flipped up, showing her thigh, and I stopped.
”Don’t be selfish!”
”No! I want this!”
Higurashi hid the needle in her clothes, near her chest.
She’s using my kindness against me!
I couldn’t take it back by force. I got annoyed but calmed down.
But fighting over one needle isn’t very mature. I’ve helped her a lot, after all.
”Fine, you can have it, but don’t interrupt my work anymore.”
”Yay! As expected of Tsuchimiya-senpai!”
Higurashi is happy just because of the needle. She probably did this on purpose. Still, it’s kind of cute.
I started putting my sewing tools into a candy tin. I found it in the trash, from someone I don’t know.
Then, Higurashi, still on the bed, put my head between her thighs from behind.
”What’s wrong? You’re not doing anything bad today, right?”
I kept working and acted calm, speaking casually.
When we talk alone, I’m rougher, but I don’t care much anymore.
Higurashi just finished her bath but was still in her uniform. She said she had work tonight, but Kamen Papillon appears late too. She’s probably going on patrol now.
It’s hard to believe she’s sane, but for now, Kamen Papillon saved me. I don’t know how much of this is planned.
People say genius and madness are similar, but she’s definitely on the crazy side.
”This is thanks for the needle. Only Tsuchimiya-senpai can feel my legs.”
Higurashi said this as she rubbed her smooth thighs against my cheek.
It feels nice, but I’m disappointed I can’t enjoy it fully, knowing she’s watching me with a smile.
I quietly finished cleaning up, kept my hood on, and stored the table away.
”You’re fixing it carefully, but if you just made a new one, it would take only ten seconds.”
