Chapter 21: UAO Version 2.0
After dropping a box of nutritional supplement drinks for Freya in the Minder's Kiosk, I headed straight to the training center the following day. I suddenly felt ashamed to drop off two gallons of distilled water, so I changed my mind.
I admit I felt proud. It's the first thing I bought after receiving my allowance since I can't think of anything to buy. My clothes were sucked in the vortex, but a dozen pairs of clothes last two weeks, so I don't need to buy more. I just need to do laundry twice a month.
Also, since Claude hasn't returned, I ate everything on his fridge that might expire soon.
Should I buy something for the vice-captain too?
My relationship with Terrius became closer. Unlike before when the conversation was awkward and short, this time, we began sharing small talk. I learned a little about his personality, which helped me tread safely whenever he was around.
I still remember how he could easily freeze someone. Just thinking about it makes me shiver. Getting on his nerves will have me turn to ice.
He engaged in small talk but doesn't like talking ill about people. He does his job as quietly as possible but gets annoyed if something gets in his way or wastes his time for too long.
"You'll be a burden to your team if you keep this up. Why don't you just completely nullify everything and die?"
Sometimes, he's too honest and straightforward.
"Let me try again."
I've trained my control and achieved great results, but that was on an inanimate object. Once I try to selectively nullify an ability while allowing another to remain active, I tend to turn off everything.
