My System: An Evolved Computer I Made With My Unique Ability—



Wearing a poker face that hid every ounce of his feelings from Lufine, Bishop turned away, averting his gaze as the two of them headed to the cafeteria. He was still holding her hand, and at this point, he didn't want to let go.

'Her hands are so soft!' He screamed in his mind as his face reddened a little bit.

Once they got to the cafeteria, Bishop couldn't contain his embarrassment any longer, and he naturally let go of Lufine's hand just when they were about to choose from the menu. She ordered a box of fried chicken, and Bishop ordered a curry for himself.

Sniffling, Lufine tearfully ate every fried chicken she had. After finishing everything, she ordered another box of chicken and ate it whole herself. Bishop couldn't help but laugh inwardly as he watched the hilarious Lufine stress eating. It was like watching something do a mukbang after a breakup.

"You're laughing, aren't you?" Lufine sniffed, pointing a drumstick at Bishop who was doing all he could to suppress his laughter.

Without warning, Bishop took a bite off the drumstick and he denied Lufine's allegations. "I'm not even— I wasn't even smiling." Bishop defended himself.

"No, you're laughing. In your mind." Lufine was convinced that Bishop was making fun of her in his thoughts. They'd been friends for so long, and he knew just what tickled Bishop's funny bone.

This was the first time Lufine mustered all her courage to confess to someone, and she was instantly shot down. When she put herself in Bishop's shoes, he couldn't help but find the situation laughable as well. After all, she knew that Bishop witnessed the entire exchange.

Anyone who saw something so embarrassing would laugh their hearts out, no questions asked.

"No, you were laughing. See? Your lips are curving upward. Stop denying it." Lufine pouted as she bashfully turned her head away. "But still..."

Bishop leaned in closer since Lufine seemed like she was about to say something important. Her face reddened a little bit, and he knew that whatever Lufine was about to say, she was just going to say it once.

With minimal movements, Bishop reached into his pockets and rummaged for his phone. He almost dropped it in the process, but fortunately, he managed to get ahold of it. While focusing on Lufine, he blindly navigated through his phone lock and his apps.

"T-thank you, Bishop... you... you were pretty cool back there." Lufine twirled a finger on her hair as she spoke.

A split second later, though, her expression shifted into embarrassment and she continued eating the rest of the chicken she had. However, Bishop wasn't satisfied. He leaned forward and spoke. "I didn't hear what you said. Can you say it again?" He asked.

His conniving smile led Lufine to believe that he was up to something, so she turned her head away. "I'm not repeating it. You're just going to tease me."

"Come on, please? I really didn't hear it." Bishop raised his right hand as if he was saying an oath. He wanted to convince Lufine that he really didn't hear a word she said.

Lufine wasn't having it though. She knew that her voice was loud enough and Bishop heard it clearly.

After a couple of seconds, Bishop leaned back and continued eating the curry he ordered. "Well, if you're not going to repeat it... then I'm going to make you repeat it." Bishop spoke calmly as if he really had the power to make Lufine repeat what she just said.

"I'm not going to repeat it. And you can't make me." Lufine returned, swinging a drumstick around as if it was her very own makeshift weapon.

"What, you didn't know? I have the power to make you repeat what you said." Bishop continued.

"Don't be ridiculous. I know what your superpower is. You don't have any mind control abilities. If you did, you'd have used it in the past." Lufine brushed off Bishop's statement as if it was irrelevant.

As if on cue, Bishop wore a smirk as he raised his phone up. "Who said I don't?"

With one press of a button, he played the recording of Lufine, putting it on a loop to further embarrass her.

[T-thank you, Bishop... you... you were pretty cool back there.]

[T-thank you, Bishop... you... you were pretty cool back there.]

[Thank you— ]

Hearing the recording, Lufine almost fumed as she dove forward and tried to reach for Bishop's cell phone. However, Bishop was quick to react, and he managed to retract his hand before Lufine could reach it. Lufine growled, and she ran around the table in order to pin Bishop and confiscate his cell phone.

"Give it!" Lufine hissed since she didn't want to cause a commotion. If there were only two of them in the area, then she'd have screamed her lungs out right then and there.

Bishop let out a laugh, and with his quick reflexes, he swung his hands around so Lufine won't be able to reach it. He was relieved that the plan worked, and he was able to distract Lufine from her heartbreak. Then again, there was no way he was going to delete that recording of hers. He had already saved it online, just in case Lufine managed to grab his phone and delete it.

After all, his phone password was Lufine's birth date, and it would be easy to guess should Lufine get ahold of it.

"Delete it!" Lufine hissed a second time.

This time, she managed to grab Bishop's phone, but then she realized that she didn't know Bishop's password. She blatantly asked for it with a smile on her face.

Slam!

The doors to the cafeteria swung open and in came the man that dumped Lufine along with his friends. His face was swollen in all the wrong places, and there were welts on his head. His nose also bled due to Bishop's punches.

"BISHOP!" He screamed as soon as he entered the cafeteria.

Thompson, the student who got beat up by Bishop, was pretty popular, and his superpower was one of the best as well. He was an honor student, and his reputation was solid in front of the teachers. However, no one knew that he and his gang were actually troublemakers, and now his true colors were starting to show.

White goo covered his arm, and he reached out to Bishop as soon as he was within arm's reach. Fortunately, Bishop was quick enough to act, and he dodged the grip in the nick of time. Simultaneously, he grabbed Lufine into a princess carry and jumped out of the way, setting her down before he engaged Thompson in combat.

"Look at him, playing the hero," Thompson said, gritting his teeth. No one messes with him, and whoever did it would pay a hundredfold.

The once peaceful cafeteria filled with students turned into pandemonium as students got out of the way and those behind the counter ducked for cover. Students near the entrance to the cafeteria got out of there in a flash since they didn't want to deal with Thompson once he activated his superpower.

His superpower, Goo Armor, gave him the ability to summon an entity which was called White Goo. This goo could cover his entire body, providing him with armor and enhanced senses, as well as near indestructible skin. It was a superpower that excelled both in defense and offense.

"I don't want to fight, Thompson," Bishop called out, slowly backing away while Thompson approached him.

At this point, he had fully activated his superpower. His entire body was now covered with the white goo, and his voice became deeper, more muffled since he was speaking through the goo.

"You started this, Bishop." He called out. He remembered his trip to the nurse's office and how he was warned by the superhero Nurse herself to not get into fights. However, he wouldn't be able to rest easy, fully knowing that a student got the better of him.

He had no choice but to engage Bishop in combat. This was for his pride as a man and as a superhero.

"Then let's finish this," Bishop called out.

At this point, he didn't care anymore. He was going to use his full power against Thompson because he knew that he would do the same. As a man, and as an upcoming superhero, Bishop couldn't just back down from the fight as well.

Besides, Lufine was watching. He couldn't show his bad side in front of her.

A dark orb appeared on Bishop's hand, and he shot a couple of them at Thompson. As for Thompson, he mercilessly charged at Bishop, slapping his dark orbs away since his armor could repel them.

Bishop didn't stop attacking.

And Thompson didn't stop with his charge.

"GRAGGHH!"

"AAGHHH!!!"

As the two of them faced each other, throwing a punch right at each other's faces, a figure appeared in front of them, smacking both of them on the head.

WHACK!

"If you're going to fight like kids, then don't do it in the cafeteria. We have the coliseum beside the school. I'll gladly officiate the match if you're going to be hell-bent on taking on each other."

The person who stopped them was none other than Principal Sai Tama. Upon hearing the details of the commotion, he personally stepped in to stop the ruckus.
