I'm doing abstract animation

"Don't worry, I have a good eye, this is cilantro!"

Yuki Risa was very confident, after all, she was one of the three giants of northern Hyogo, so how could the character voiced by Kana Hanazawa be a passerby?

Upon hearing this, Yukino Yukinoshita couldn't say anything more. After all, just as her sister had said, the final interpretation rested with Osamu Yuuki, and he could choose however he wanted.

"Alright, everyone, gather around. I'll say a few words first."

Yuki gathered the group together, and they all looked at him, especially Gokou Ruri, who was still unaware of the truth, whose eyes were practically shining.

Being a bit of a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur), she had fantasized about such things to some extent, and at this moment, she wondered if she had accidentally stumbled into some mysterious organization...

"Cough cough."

After coughing twice with his fist clenched, he began to chant.

"First of all, U-Love-Me, you step forward."

"I told you to call me by my name properly, you jerk!" Yumiko Miura stepped forward, annoyed.

Yuuki Osamu squinted at her for a moment, then suddenly asked, "You fused your cards?"

"Yes, it disappeared last night."

Yumiko Miura nodded.

Yukino Yukinoshita, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but glance at him sideways. She knew how difficult it was to fuse cards.

Yuki nods at her: "Very good, as expected of U-Love-Me, Nino, you should learn from her."

Yukinoshita Yukino: "..."

You're acting way too much like a teacher!

There's one more thing Yuuki didn't say: strictly speaking, her card contained a portion of her own power, making her arguably the first among them to truly awaken her power.

It was precisely because of a portion of her own power that she was able to fuse the cards so quickly.

what?

You're asking how Yui Yuigahama managed to fuse in one night?

That just goes to show that fools have good luck. Even Yuuki Osamu couldn't figure out how she managed to fuse cards all night...

Maybe she cried too hard and annoyed the cards...

Unfortunately, the conditions were too harsh. Miura Yumiko was almost driven mad by the torment before she awakened this power, and even then, it was incomplete. She needed the power of another dimension to complete it into a card.

However, there's always a second time around. Once he analyzed the process of Miura Yumiko's power awakening, he could naturally adopt a simpler method to awaken the rest of them.

"this is for you."

Yuki took a yellow pistol out of his pocket and handed it to her.

"Awaken!"

Yumiko Miura's eyes lit up, and she immediately snatched the pistol away.

She had seen Yui Yuigahama awaken, so she naturally knew that the awakening device looked like a pistol.

What is an Awakening Device?

Elizabeth… Komi Shoko raises the whiteboard.

Ruri Gokou and Yukino Yukinoshita on either side nodded and asked the same question.

"It's something that can activate the power of the cards that have been integrated into the body." Yui Yuigahama's eyes lit up, and she quickly stepped forward to explain, "It's really powerful! The more times you activate it, the more the power of the cards can be integrated into your normal body. However, each awakening is very tiring, and you're also very hungry. Once I was so hungry that I ate a whole box of bread!"

Three people: "..."

A whole box of bread? Is that even possible?!

Looking at Yui Yuigahama's petite figure, they wondered how she could eat a whole box of bread... It was completely unimaginable!

"You've eaten so much, isn't your stomach bloated?"

Yukinoshita Yukino asked curiously.

"Um, how should I put it..." Yui Yuigahama scratched her head a little embarrassedly, "I feel like I could still eat after finishing a whole box of bread... By the way, Yuuki-kun, can I ask you a rather personal question?"

Seeing Yui Yuigahama acting suspiciously, Yukiri frowned again, but still gestured for her to come over and talk.

Yui Yuigahama leaned close to his ear and whispered something, as if she were trying to steal a secret.

Her slightly loose pink hair brushed against his neck, making him feel a little uncomfortable, and the sweet fragrance emanating from her made him quite uneasy.

"...So it's okay for me to do this?"

Her face flushed slightly, a little shy, after all, it wasn't a very good question to ask in public.

Yuuki nodded: "Don't worry, you can go back now."

Seeing that he was alright, Yui Yuigahama breathed a sigh of relief and stood back down.

Yumiko Miura, somewhat curious, secretly leaned closer to her and asked, "Yui, what were you asking just now?"

"Hey, hehe, it's nothing..."

Yui Yuigahama grinned foolishly; clearly, she didn't want to talk about that.

"Alright, now I have an urgent message to share. Don't be shy, Yuihama, this is normal. And Miura, don't be curious either. This is what I'm about to say."

"Huh?" Yui Yuigahama was dumbfounded, and stammered, "N-no, do I have to say this too?"

"Of course I have to tell you!" Yuuki looked completely bewildered. "This isn't just your problem. They'll all be like this after they awaken. Do you expect them to come and ask me one by one?"

As he continued, Yuki's face darkened.

This experiment subject is so unprofessional, actually trying to slack off!

"No, no, that's not what I meant, it's just... sigh, never mind, since they're all like this, there's no need for me to hide it."

Yui Yuigahama sighed, looking utterly devastated.

Yuuki looked at her with a puzzled expression. What was wrong with this guy?

"Alright, let's get back to the main topic. First, you need to understand one thing: your body won't change much after fusing the cards because you lack the key to activate the card's power. The Awakening Device is the key to activate the card's power within you."

"This stimulation is only temporary because your bodies are too weak to adapt to this power for long. However, when you awaken, your bodies will gradually be strengthened by this power, and you will gradually become different from ordinary people."

"So if you experience situations like Yuihama where you don't need to go to the toilet for a long time, don't worry. It just means that your body has undergone initial strengthening and has already transcended the form of an ordinary person. Your energy absorption is much stronger, and impurities that ordinary people cannot absorb are no longer a problem for you."

"In other words, if you awaken, you will become true goddesses and never need to go to the toilet again."

Yuki Risa was completely serious.

The girls looked speechless.

What kind of goddess is equated with not being able to use the toilet, you bastard!

However, they soon turned their attention to Yui Yuigahama, who seemed utterly hopeless.

In the end, it was Miura Yumiko who asked the question.

"Yui, how long has it been since you last went to the bathroom?"

Just kill me...

Yui Yuigahama turned completely ashen.

Volume 1: Chapter 43 The Interrupted Battle

"Next, in order to let you witness the awakening process and let Youlome experience her power, Spider Detective, you will fight Youlome."

Yuigahama Yui: “Huh?”

She quickly asked, "Do you want me to fight with Yumiko?"

boom!

"it hurts!"

With a dark expression, Yuuki Osamu slapped her on the forehead with a chop to the head: "That's called fighting!"

Can't this guy have any common sense?

Fighting sounds so low-class, it has no style at all.

"This... won't do, will it?" Yui Yuigahama said cautiously, touching her forehead.

Yuuki raised an eyebrow: "Why not?"

She scratched her head: "Although I'm a bit slow, I awakened much earlier than Yumiko. What if I hurt her?"

Miura Yuko: "..."

What do you mean by that? Are you saying I'm inferior to you?

Although she knew her friend didn't mean it that way, she still felt vaguely uncomfortable.

So she stepped forward: "Come on, Yui, let me see your strength."

"This..." Yui Yuigahama hesitated, but seeing Yumiko Miura's expression, she could only nod helplessly: "Alright then."

She knows her best friend well; Miura Yumiko is serious...

"Okay, then... Equice!"

Yuuki pointed with one hand: "Simulated battle environment, city!"

"receive."

A mechanical voice emanated from the large white sphere.

Then the entire silver-white space began to undergo a dramatic change.

Amidst the exclamations of the group, tall buildings began to rise from the ground, roads formed on the ground, traffic lights, cars, and so on quickly materialized, and the entire silvery-white space transformed into a corner of a metropolis in less than a minute.

"Amazing!"

Ruri Gokou's eyes were sparkling; it was clear she was very excited.

At this moment, Yuuki, Yukinoshita, and the other two were standing on a tall building, while below them were Yuihama and Miura, who were preparing for their duel.

"call……"

Looking at the high stage, Miura Yumiko took a deep breath and slowly raised the pistol, pointing it at her temple.

"Yui, do you know what I went through in that other dimension?"

She looked at her friend, as if talking to her or talking to herself, and before Yui could answer, she continued, "That's a despair you can't even imagine."

"Yumiko..."

A silver-white pistol materialized in Yuihama's hand as she looked at Miura Yumiko across from her with a touch of heartache.

Although she didn't know what the other person had experienced in the other dimension, she could guess what it was when she thought about her friend's silence all day.

"So I've come to understand one thing: anything is possible in this world." Miura Yumiko's eyes widened. "Only power can protect everything!"

"So, let's have a match, Yui!"

"Awakening!"

Bah!

The energy shot from the gun muzzle into Miura Yumiko's temple and instantly spread throughout her body.

The power dormant within her was awakened, and a mist began to emanate from her, causing her appearance to change.

Her nails gradually became sharp, two golden ears slowly grew from the top of her head, and a golden tail extended from behind her.

"Ahhh!"

An explosive power surged through her body, and Miura Yumiko couldn't help but let out a joyful cry. Strange, cloud-like patterns appeared around her emerald green eyes.

Yuko Miura·Komaru Inu Form!

She's so good at it!

Yuki's eyes lit up. Miura Yumiko had really surprised him. He never expected that the usually unassuming girl would add an English sentence when she awakened, and in a Japanese accent at that. She was really good at it.

Didn't you see that the three onlookers were completely dumbfounded, especially Ruri Gokou, who was so excited that she was trembling?
