READ NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 9: Chapter 9: Kuroko's Worst Nightmare, The Trick Of The Trade
Date: July 19, 2009
Let's be honest, Kuroko Shirai was having a bit of a rough day. Actually, you know what, scratch that statement, she was actually having a very very horrible day. This was compounded by the fact that she had just literally been to hell and back whilst battling against a boss that was the head of a group of thugs, that had been been conning a boy in a situation regarding the Level Upper, who was unable to run away, so she decided to confront them. Coincidentally, Kuruko arrived before Saten wound up getting hurt in the situation, and she managed to subdue two of the thugs, but she had trouble using her teleportation ability against Trick, who was their boss, due to his light-distortion ability, which wound up heavily affecting her calculations. And as we all would find out in later events, you can't use your esper abilities if you can't think straight or have a clear head to concentrate. But, I am getting a bit ahead of myself again, let's go back to how this all started, shall we?
Okay, so despite me and Misaka meeting her before this, albeit under different circumstances, and not with a lab coat on, Dr. Kiyama scared me slightly. This was due to the fact that she just seemed to have this look about her. Little did Misaka and I know, that my fears would later be confirmed about her. But, this wouldn't be confirmed until much later on.
And well, here we are, almost all caught up again. And to tell you the truth, I don't think Kuroko Shirai felt any less fearful about fighting against Trick. This was due to the fact, that during their fight, his light-distortion ability, kept getting in the way of Kuroko being able to use her teleportation ability effectively. This was further compounded by the fact that when they went through an abandoned building, while Trick was chasing Kuroko through it, as Kuroko was still having trouble with her ability, she thankfully managed to use her teleportation ability to teleport the building's windows directly into the abandoned building's supports, cutting right through them and causing the abandoned building to collapse, right on top of Trick. However, having barely survived, Trick surrendered his Level Upper to Kuroko, which was revealed to be a music file.
Meanwhile, in another part of Academy city Saten was feeling even more conflicted about what to do with the Level Upper that she had found on her music player two days ago. It was at that point that she was approached by some of her classmates and who told Saten that they were also interested in the Level Upper, to which Saten then decided to share it with them. Man, thing really do have a way in casually working their way down to total disaster, don't they? Well, I guess we will just have to see how things play out, won't we? Here's to hoping things work out well in the end. And hopefully, neither me or Misaka wind up dead on the other side of this in the process.
