Unspeakable bubbles

"Of course."

Kotono said calmly, "We are all children of a mother."

"So that's how it is."

Bubble immediately felt that Kotono's mother was amazing. She knew that giving birth was not an easy thing, let alone giving birth to so many.

"This is our secret, don't tell anyone," Kotono said.

"Okay." Bubble nodded, and their relationship seemed to have taken another step forward.

"Did your old school offer occult studies?"

Seeing the little girl's blank expression, Kotono smiled and said, "Then you'd better be prepared, the next lesson might be a little difficult for you."

After a day of studying, Bubble saw a familiar face at the school gate while carrying her schoolbag.

"Masumi-neechan!"

"How are you feeling today? Are you getting used to the new school?"

Masumi was dressed in a suit, a typical image of a female office worker.

"Bubble has made some good friends, and everyone in the class is very nice to Bubble."

"that is……"

The little girl said somewhat shyly, "It's just that the occult is too difficult; I can't understand a lot of things."

“Mysticism… Bubble, don’t worry, you’re still young, and your teacher will understand.”

Masumi can tutor Bubble on subjects like math, but not on the occult.

Despite the unusual nature of her profession, she was essentially an ordinary person who knew nothing about the occult.

"Bubble, what did you talk about in your occult class?"

"Many strange recipes, and many formulas that I don't understand."

"The teacher told us to remember this, saying we would need it later."

"Hmm, I won't think about it after school. Let's go home and have something delicious."

Masumi took Bubble's schoolbag. "It's been a long time since I've cooked. I hope my skills haven't gotten worse."

"Come on, Bubble, tell me what you like to eat?"

"Bubble isn't picky about food."

"What a good child."

As the sun sets, a young couple, one older and one younger, walk hand in hand on their way home, creating a warm and cozy atmosphere.

Section 127, Chapter 126: The Book of Shadows

"Here, try the cookies made by Masumi-neechan."

"It's delicious."

"Kotono, come here quickly!"

During lunchtime, Bubble shared the cookies she had brought with her classmates.

"It tastes good," Kotono Ogawa nodded.

Although the other students in the class did not speak, they all showed a hint of satisfaction.

"I'll bring Bubble over for you when I learn to make it myself... but that might take a long time." The little girl looked very disappointed.

"Is there any difficulty?" Kotono's heart stirred.

"Bubble is very afraid of fire, and he's not good at using things like pots and pans or ovens in the kitchen."

"Has anything happened before?"

At this moment, Kotono appeared very perceptive.

Bubble nodded without saying anything more.

"I have an idea."

Seeing this, Kotono offered a helping hand to Bubble: "Let those unpleasant memories disappear. If you're willing to cooperate, I'll help you erase the memory you don't want... How about it?"

Bubble looked a little confused at first, then shook her head.

"Thank you, Kotono. However, although it was a bad memory, it was also an important one."

The little girl said very seriously, "One day, Bubble will overcome its own weaknesses."

"It's too complicated, I don't understand."

Kotono tilted her head. "Can't you just forget about things you hate?"

“...I just don’t feel like this is right.” Bubble didn’t give any convincing answer; she simply followed her heart and spoke her mind.

"Well, humans are really strange."

Upon hearing this, the other seven students in the class nodded in agreement.

"Class, class meeting," a girl wearing glasses stammered as she approached Bubble.

"Class meeting? Oh, it's Friday, there's a class meeting this afternoon."

Bubble was very happy. Recently, she had become more and more skilled at communicating with her classmates through eye contact, but this was the first time someone had made an effort to talk to her.

"The book, black."

"Guess correctly, there's a reward."

Inspired by the first girl, the others started chiming in, one after another.

The little girl was completely confused. She tried to understand and said, "There will be a competition during the afternoon class meeting, and there will be a prize for winning?"

"Then, what is the black book?"

"Old, teacher, Wallis."

“Hmm, Ms. Wallis has a black book.” Bubble understood here, and then asked, “Does the book have anything to do with the reward?”

"The reward, the book, inside the book."

"Black one, come out."

"Many, from books."

Kotono watched Bubbles interact with her classmates, a happy expression on her face.

Using special communication methods can certainly make the other party understand what you are trying to say in an instant, but Kotono would rather see this scene in front of her.

Expressing things in their own words has extraordinary significance for them.

'One step closer to a qualified product'

Kotono was very pleased, as she was the only one who could be considered qualified, while the other seven were still far from it.

It seems that I will be able to see my great mother soon.

All of this is thanks to the bubbles!

'Strange human, but I, we all like you.'

“Bubble likes everyone too!” The little girl suddenly turned around and said to Kotono with a smile.

“Hmm,”

Kotono was momentarily stunned, because she had only thought those words to herself and hadn't actually conveyed them to Bubble.

So, how did she know what she was thinking?

Kotono wasn't the type to beat around the bush, so she directly asked the question that had been bothering her: "Bubble, how did you know what I was thinking?"

"I found out suddenly."

Seeing Kotono's troubled expression, Bubble thought for a moment and explained, "Bubble can occasionally hear the voices in Kotono's and everyone else's hearts. Well, to say 'hear' is more like 'see' them. But, but the voices should be heard."

Bubble scratched her head and continued, "However, you can't 'see' this sound in other people. Like the students in other classes, and the teachers who come to class, they can't hear it."

"Just us?"

Kotono tapped the corner of the table with her fingers intermittently; she had some ideas.

'Seeing through people's hearts' is the most difficult thing, and in some ways, even predicting the future is easier.

Kotono wasn't sure if the ultimate form of the Eye of Truth could reach this level.

However, there was one thing she was absolutely certain of.

At this point, Bubble's use of the Eye of Truth was only at a beginner level. He could only achieve a little bit of X-ray vision and speak with his eyes; he couldn't do anything more advanced.

So, how was she able to do such incredible things to herself?

Considering her own identity, Kotono took a closer look at Bubbles.

After observing for a while, her conclusion remained unchanged. The girl before her was just a human girl, not a descendant of some great lord.

If it's a combination of rank suppression and an immature Eye of Truth, then it can barely be explained.

Now...

"Ring ring ring"

The school bell rang, and another mysterious science class that made Bubble's head spin began.

With anticipation for the class meeting, Bubble listened attentively to two lessons and finally saw Wallis carrying a heavy black book.

"We'll follow the usual rules for this class meeting. Since some new students aren't quite clear on the rules, I'll repeat them again."

Wallis tapped the heavy black book, and the next moment it floated into the air.

"Oh! It's flying!" Bubble exclaimed with amazement.

"Come out."

At Wallis's command, the black book opened, and nine dark shapes floated out.
