Chinatsu, who had still been a bit groggy, suddenly woke up completely. Returning to her peak state, her gravity acted like a giant hand, grabbing Kuroko's clothes and throwing her out of the classroom window.
In an instant, Kuroko teleported back.
She awkwardly cleared her throat. At the same time, Mikoto and Mitsuko also appeared outside the classroom door. Amidst the envious gazes of her classmates, Chinatsu slowly walked out of the classroom.
The classmates all showed expressions of regret; they also wanted to have lunch with Chinatsu, but the atmosphere within the group was too harmonious, and they didn't think they could fit in.
Tokiwadai, in the courtyard.
Chinatsu and the others sat with the lunch provided by Tokiwadai in their hands, quietly enjoying their lunch break while chatting comfortably.
By the way, the lunch boxes in their hands had once been sold for a high price of 40,000 yen in the underground street of Academy City. Some students in the school had heard this rumor and all showed expressions of confusion regarding it.
After all, they were just eating the lunch provided by the school normally; why would anyone spend money to buy their lunch? Facts proved that there are really many people with nothing better to do.
"By the way, Kuroko, after the bank robbery last time, I felt that the robber who used fire was a bit strange, so I asked you to investigate his information. Are there any results now?"
Chinatsu, having suddenly recalled this matter, immediately asked Kuroko. Hearing her Onee-sama's inquiry, Kuroko immediately put down her chopsticks, her expression turning serious.
"There are results. Actually, even if Onee-sama hadn't asked, I was planning to mention it later. It's really surprising; this bank robber with pyrokinesis is registered in the Ability User database as a Level 1 Low-Ability User."
As Kuroko said this, everyone present showed expressions of disbelief, because based on the situation at the time, this robber's speed of release and the size of the fireballs were undoubtedly at the level of a Level 3 Strong-Ability User.
The database in Academy City contained ability information for 99% of Ability Users, and this information was updated at the very latest every three to four months.
So, this robber improved from Level 1 to Level 3 in just a few short months; is this growth speed really possible...
"This upgrade speed is too fast, right?"
Even Mikoto, who didn't believe that one could become stronger just by working hard, couldn't quite believe the growth speed of this robber. You have to know that as a Level 5, she was already the benchmark for fast growth, and it had taken her several years to go from Level 1 to Level 3 back then.
Kuroko nodded, then took her phone out of her pocket and played a video of the interrogation of this robber at the detention center.
And when the robber muttered that special term, "Level Upper," there had recently been vague rumors about it in Academy City, especially spreading deeply among Low-Ability Users.
It was rumored to be a divine object that could allow weak Ability Users to rapidly increase their ability level. If one could use the power of this divine object for a long time, even a Level 0 Ability User could become a Level 5 Esper.
