Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 1368: Totsuki Academy to Become Totsuki Psychic Academy

"You mean, there will be more and more strange things in the future?"

Alice Nakiri demanded, her voice trembling slightly, her eyes revealing deep uneasiness, and a strong sense of foreboding surged in her heart, as if she had seen a terrifying world filled with demons and monsters approaching her.

"It is very likely that it will even become the norm in the future of this world."

Luther's expression was serious. He said solemnly, "So... in a world that is about to be filled with monsters, what do you think you will rely on to survive? Is it your cooking skills that you are so proud of? Can you solve those terrifying monsters by cooking?"

There was a hint of sarcasm in his tone, as if he was mocking such an unrealistic idea.

These words were like a thunderclap, exploding suddenly in Alice Nakiri's heart.

In an instant, the pale face of Kurokiba Ryo lying injured on the hospital bed emerged in her mind, and she remembered her own powerlessness and confusion when facing danger.

The feeling that her friend was in danger and she was helpless and couldn't do anything was like a poisonous sting that pierced her heart deeply and made her feel a sharp pain.

She kept asking herself in her heart: What can I do?
Could it be that the superb cooking skills could really be of any use in the face of those hideous and terrifying monsters?

There was a trace of confusion and bewilderment in her eyes, and she began to doubt what she had always insisted on and pursued.

"So, you mean... you want me to change Totsuki Academy? Do you want me to teach you how to deal with those scary monsters?"

When Alice Nakiri said this, her eyes, which had been dim due to shock and confusion, suddenly lit up like ignited stars.

"A method to deal with those ghostly things, something like magic... Yin-Yang magic or something like that?"

She asked, her eyes sparkling with a shining light of expectation. At this moment, she was like a traveler who had been drifting in the rough sea for a long time and was on the verge of despair. She suddenly found a life-saving straw floating by and grabbed it tightly. Her tone was full of eagerness and desire to know the answer.

"What do you mean by you? It's us."

Luther frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes, and he corrected again seriously, with an unquestionable tone, as if emphasizing some invisible but crucial connection, trying to truly incorporate Alice Nakiri into the concept of "camp" he constructed.

"The recovery of spiritual power is not obvious at present. There are not many demons and people who have awakened their spiritual power. People with strong spiritual power are more likely to attract the covetousness of those demons. Therefore, the people who are attacked by demons now are most likely to have strong spiritual power potential, such as you."

Luther continued to explain methodically.

"I see."

Alice Nakiri subconsciously raised her hands slowly, staring at the hands that usually fiddled with ingredients and created delicious dishes, her eyes full of curiosity and exploration.

She seemed to be able to see some mysterious light flickering on these hands, and tried to find clues of the existence of spiritual power from them.

Before this, her world was filled with only cooking skills and her persistent pursuit of delicious food. She never thought that she might be related to this mysterious spiritual talent.

Do you have a talent for spiritual power?
This thought flashed through her mind like lightning, shocking her and faintly exciting her. A very complicated emotion surged in her heart, like a pot of mixed emotions.

On the one hand, she felt a deep fear of this unknown spiritual world deep in her heart, an instinctive resistance and uneasiness towards unknown things; on the other hand, she was filled with intense curiosity and anticipation about the special abilities she might possess, like a child facing a box full of mysterious gifts and couldn't wait to find out.

She couldn't help but begin to fantasize, if she really mastered those mysterious powers, could she change the status quo?
Can he protect his cherished friends, such as Kurokiba Ryo who is lying in the hospital bed, in this world that is about to change drastically and is threatened by monsters and demons?

Can he become a hero who saves the world as Luther described?
She didn't know how difficult the road ahead would be, nor was she sure whether she could really control those mysterious powers.

But at this moment, an unshakable idea has sprouted in her heart, that is, no matter what is waiting for her ahead, no matter how many difficulties and obstacles she will encounter along the way, she must take this step bravely and try to understand this new world full of mystery and danger, and to master the power that can make her strong enough to protect everything.

"I looked it up today and found that there are many talented people in Totsuki Academy. We can use this as an opportunity to train them."

Luther narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze seemed to penetrate the wall of the ward, looking straight in the direction of Totsuki Academy, and continued to speak slowly.

When Alice Nakiri heard this, she couldn't help but feel a strong sense of surprise.

There are so many people in Totsuki Academy who have spiritual talent?
In her original cognition, she might be an extremely special existence. After all, she once thought that the small truck monster she encountered today was attracted by her unique aura.

Her face was full of confusion, her beautiful eyes were wide open, and she subconsciously opened her mouth slightly, but she didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Luther paused for a moment, as if he was choosing his words, and then slowly said a few names: "Alice Nakiri, Kurokiba Ryo, Yukihira Soma, Mito Ume, Tadokoro Megumi..."

He listed many names in one breath, all of which were key characters in the original story of Food Wars!

Every time a name was read out, it was like planting a seed of curiosity in Alice Nakiri's heart.

Alice Nakiri looked focused, and quickly pricked up her ears, concentrating on writing down the names one by one.

She wondered in her heart, could it be possible that these classmates who studied cooking with her also had spiritual talents like herself?

This realization completely overturned her view of the people around her.

Just as she was immersed in thought, Luther gently raised his hand and taught Alice Nakiri the psychic training method.

This was created by the system. The previous method of psychic cultivation was abandoned by Luther in order to restart the world.

This set of psychic cultivation methods can be said to be a hodgepodge.

For example, through this set of psychic training methods, practitioners can use the Force to lock their throats and take objects from a distance; they can release Force lightning to attack the enemy with the power of thunder; they can also cast a mental storm to disrupt the opponent's mind.

Not only that, it also combines the domineering Haki, the armed Haki, and the observation Haki, allowing the practitioner to have unique momentum suppression, super strong defense and keen perception in battle.
