66 The Difference In Talent
Chen Wei knew about Ning Shi’s situation and said while walking, “I’m already very grateful that you can go. It’s for peace of mind.”
After Yang Yunzhi paid the bill, he ridiculed Chen Wei.
“Old Chen, are you interested in girls? Do you need us brothers to cover for you?”
Chen Wei didn’t joke this time. Instead, he said seriously, “No, Miao Xinyue and I are just simple friends. Don’t talk nonsense when you meet later. It’s not good to cause misunderstandings.”
Seeing Chen Wei’s serious expression, Yang Yunzhi said, “Then I won’t go over. Three grown men meeting a girl, don’t scare her.”
With that, Yang Yunzhi left.
Ning Shi had just drunk some plum wine in the shop. Although the alcohol content was very low, he couldn’t drive.
Chen Wei didn’t drink any alcohol. Instead, he took the initiative to be the driver and drove the car to a café near Donglin University.
Chen Wei said as they walked into the booth and ordered some drinks.
“I told Miao Xinyue in advance. She’ll be here soon. Speaking of which, Miao Xinyue is also from Donglin University, and she’s your schoolmate.”
Seeing Chen Wei trying to pull strings, Ning Shi smiled, “Don’t worry, Old Chen. After I understand the situation, I will try my best to help.”
Less than two minutes after he sat down, a beautiful woman walked over.
She was dressed very simply in a white t-shirt and jeans, which was the simple style of female college students. However, her figure and appearance were too outstanding, and she looked like a goddess in her simple clothes.
The girl had a pair of almond-shaped eyes with distinct black and white, which would inadvertently reveal an alluring style. Coupled with her long legs, she had a kind of natural charm.
She walked over and held out her hand a little cautiously.
“Hello, Senior Ning Shi. My name is Miao Xinyue, a second-year student from the Computer Science Department of Donglin University. It’s a pleasure to meet you!”
Ning Shi stood up and gently shook Miao Xinyue’s soft hand.
“I’m very happy to know you. Take a seat, don’t stand on ceremony. You’re Chen Wei’s friend and my junior. We’re friends the moment we meet. What would you like to drink? We’ve already ordered ours.”
Miao Xinyue ordered a cup of latte. Seeing that she was still very nervous, Ning Shi joked.
“I heard from Chen Wei that you like anime. I thought you would come here in a JK show uniform.”
“Anime is just a hobby,” Miao Xinyue explained. “I only wear it when I’m in the same interest, or when I’m at an anime exhibition. I dress more simply in school.”
Ning Shi gave her a thumbs up and praised her sincerely, “As expected of a student from Donglin University. You have a high level of awareness.”
The two of them chatted for a while, and the atmosphere gradually warmed up.
Seeing that Ning Shi was like an ordinary person without any airs, Miao Xinyue relaxed.
Ning Shi began to understand her situation.
“Chen Wei has told me about your ability, but it is not detailed enough. I want to know more about it from you. Tell me what you can and don’t tell me what you can’t tell me.”
Miao Xinyue nodded. In order to not be so formal, Ning Shi asked casually.
“Besides Chen Wei’s proposal, you should also be willing to transform into Misaka Mikoto. What’s your intention?”
Miao Xinyue’s face blushed, and her eyes glowed. She replied in a low voice, showing a seductive look.
“I want to become Railgun because… Because she’s flat-chested…”
Ning Shi would never have thought that Miao Xinyue’s reason for turning into a big Railgun would be so strange. He glanced at her astonishing giant boobs and didn’t know if she was saying the truth or if she was really troubled.
Thinking about it carefully, if a girl’s boobs were too big, it was indeed a heavy burden and would bring a lot of trouble to her life.
After the topic was cleared up, Miao Xinyue was not so shy anymore. She continued,
“Because I grew well, I always wore ugly clothes and had to face people’s strange looks. Slowly, I became more of an otaku and liked to watch anime at home.
“After that, I gradually fell in love with cosplay. I realized that cosplay could transform me into another person. After putting on a layer of disguise, I felt more at ease.
“Out of all the characters in the anime, I like Railgun the most because she has a powerful superpower and a body that I envy.”
Miao Xinyue really hoped that Ning Shi could help her become stronger. She knew that Ning Shi was now the principal of the Awakener School, and had defeated a rank 6 awakener with one punch. He was known as the strongest strength-type.
So she opened her heart and answered Ning Shi’s question seriously.
Then, she said to Chen Wei seriously, “Old Chen, it was my own choice to transform into Railgun. It really has nothing to do with you. You don’t have to feel guilty.”
“I don’t feel guilty.” Chen Wei waved his hand quickly. “I invited Ning Shi over to see if he can help you.”
Ning Shi asked again, “How do you feel after transforming into Railgun?”
Miao Xinyue recalled and said with a smile, “Relaxed. I’ve never felt so relaxed before. I feel like a heavy burden has been removed.”
Ning Shi was speechless.
It seemed that Miao Xinyue’s obsession was very strong. Ning Shi concentrated. “That is to say, if you transform into Railgun, you’ll be an ordinary person without any of Railgun’s abilities.
Then how long can your transformation last?”
“Half an hour. I’ve tested it before. I can’t maintain my transformation after half an hour and will return to my original form.”
Ning Shi couldn’t help but comment. “Old Chen, look. Others can last half an hour, but you only last a few seconds. You’re really a fast man!”
Miao Xinyue immediately understood and burst out laughing.
Ning Shi knew that Chen Wei couldn’t be blamed for this. It could only be said that even though they were both awakeners, the difference in their innate talent was too great.
Without a doubt, Miao Xinyue had the best transformation talent.
“If it’s convenient, you can transform into Railgun. I’ll observe for a while.”
Miao Xinyue nodded and stood up. She did not move, but the space in front of her blurred.
The beautiful Misaka Mikoto appeared!
Miao Xinyue was indeed a cosplay expert. After transforming, she moved very naturally. Her left arm was placed above her head, and her right hand was straight. There seemed to be a coin on her fingertip.
It was the classic pose of Railgun when she released the Super Electromagnetic Cannon.
Seeing this scene, Chen Wei shouted in a very childish way.
“The light flashing between your fingers is my eternal belief for this life!”
Ning Shi covered his face in shame. Although he respected Chen Wei’s hobby, the scene was too embarrassing.
“Change back, this place isn’t suitable. Let’s go to the school field and find a less crowded corner to test.”
The three of them walked into Donglin University and found a field with fewer people. Ning Shi asked Miao Xinyue to transform into Misaka Mikoto and run, jump, and do weight training on the field to record her physical data.”
“Junior, I have bad news and good news. Which one do you want to hear first?”
Miao Xinyue’s face was slightly sweaty and she was panting. She put her hand on her chest to catch her breath and said,
“I like to leave the good things for last. Let’s hear the bad news first.”
“After you transform, your physical fitness is only at the average level of a 14-year-old girl. You might as well not transform.”
Ning Shi analyzed without any emotion, “The good news is that your talent and transformation target are both better than Chen Wei’s. With more training, you might be able to develop a good ability.”
“The Big Mom character that Chen Wei had transformed into is a character of One Piece. The background world of One Piece is completely different from the real world. It is basically impossible for him to transform and adopt Big Mom’s ability.
“Misaka Mikoto’s background is similar to our world. Her ability to discharge electricity is similar to that of a lightning-type special ability, and you’re talented.
“According to my speculations, you might be able to completely master Railgun’s transformation and use her various abilities in reality.”
Hearing Ning Shi’s analysis, Miao Xinyue was not particularly happy. She noticed that Ning Shi mentioned the word “might”.
Miao Xinyue gritted her teeth and asked with a red face, “Senior, can I be your disciple?”
“I’m afraid that won’t do!” Ning Shi could feel Miao Xinyue’s determination to become stronger. He was a little curious as to what the reason was for her to be so eager to become stronger.
It was not convenient for Ning Shi to ask about Miao Xinyue’s privacy.
Ning Shi shook his head and explained, “I’m a strength-type awakener. I don’t know anything about the cultivation of the transformation-type. I can’t teach you at all.
“Perhaps you can consider joining an official organization and get help from them.”
For the adult awakeners, the government did not set up a unified Awakener School. They only did text and video teaching on the awakener forum.
They also encouraged the establishment of training institutions for the awakeners.
If one wanted to receive guidance from the government, one could join an official organization, such as the Investigation Department, the Exchange Bureau, and so on.
Miao Xinyue sighed. “I’ve applied to join the Investigation Department, but I was rejected. They said that I’m too weak and not suitable for the work of the Investigation Department.”
Miao Xinyue’s expression dimmed for a moment but then became determined again.
“Thank you, Senior Ning Shi. No matter what, I will not give up. As long as I keep working hard, one day, I will be able to completely master Railgun’s transformation!”
Feeling Miao Xinyue’s determination and thinking of her outstanding talent, Ning Shi’s habit of cherishing talents after becoming the principal reappeared. He took out his phone and said,
“Let’s exchange contact information. If you have any questions, you can ask me directly and I can give you a reference.
“I have a classmate who’s an expert in spiritual-type. Spiritual-type and transformation-type are similar, so she might be able to help you.
“She’s doing research overseas right now. I’ll introduce you to her when she comes back.”
Ning Shi thought of Hao Meng. She must be very interested in Miao Xinyue’s rare ability to transform into a virtual character and might have some new ideas.
Miao Xinyue looked excited. She quickly exchanged contact information.
“Cultivation is nothing more than strengthening your physique and spirit,” Ning Shi instructed. “If you keep training, you’ll see results.
“From what I understand, after you transform into Railgun, don’t be in a hurry to develop your lightning-type abilities. Railgun’s physical fitness and fighting skills are also very strong.
“You can start with the relatively simple physical enhancement. The correct way of cultivation is to start from the easy to the difficult.”
After saying that, Ning Shi looked at the time and found it was already 11 o’clock at night. Then, he left with Chen Wei.
