Currently Saemi and I were standing some distance away from a tree, we were going to test its power, I don't know why she was so happy about it but my reason is quite simple, if it was a little strong, I was going to use it.
"All I have to do and say the name of the ability?"
While I was lost in thought Saemi spoke from my side.
"That's right"
Hearing my words Saemi closed her eyes and pointed her two arms towards the tree, after a few seconds a phrase came out of Saemi's lips.
"Wind bullet"
After these words a small vortex of wind began to form in front of Saemi's hand, the vortex soon took the shape of a bullet that was about the size of a hand, after that the bullet flew into the tree and shattered upon impact, the bullet was strong enough to leave a hole in the tree, but not strong enough to go through it, probably Saemi could kill that rabbit easily since even I was able to pierce it with a knife, clearly my knife couldn't leave that hole in the tree.
Another thing that intrigued me was that Saemi didn't speak in another language when she used her ability, I mean I didn't either, but when I activated the gluttony factor, I'm sure my voice came out in an incomprehensible language, while thinking about this I suddenly got hugged, as soon as I looked at the person who hugged me, I was surprised to see Saemi with a smile on her face as she looked at me.
"Did you see, I did it, the wind really came out of my hand"
Saemi said hugging me, from where I was standing, I could see her chest through her school uniform, this was getting dangerous, being aware of what I was doing Saemi soon pulled away and soon returned to her usual disgusted expression as she looked at me.
"D-Don't get any wrong ideas you nerd, you're still going to suffer when I find Shinji"
Saemi said, I was seriously starting to wonder why Saemi always talks about Shinji in these situations, again this was making me angry, I who am helping her and yet she talks about Shinji.
"Tsk, if you think that you can go look for him, I'll be on my way, see you never again, Saemi"

I said turning around and starting to walk in a random direction, although I said this, I knew she would follow me, she is not so stupid as not to know that she would probably die to some monster even though she has powers, having powers doesn't mean she won't be afraid, and just as I had imagined Saemi followed me at a certain distance, whenever I looked back, she tried to hide in some bushes or behind a tree, obviously this was not hiding her one bit.
"How long do you plan to follow me?"
As soon as I said that I heard a voice a little further away.
"I-I wasn't following you"
Saemi said, but seriously.
(Doesn't she realize that saying this is the same as confirming that she was following me?)
I thought as a small smile made its way onto my face.
"If you're going to follow me, you'd better walk on my side”
Just as I said this, I heard footsteps coming from behind me, I could tell she was running.
"I-I told you I wasn't following you, Humph, why should I follow a nobody like you?”
Saemi said as soon as she got to my side, this time I decided to ignore her insult, I wondered how long she had managed to insult me, i have heard somewhere that sometimes extreme fear makes someone's brain believe something it normally wouldn't, for example... that she is in love with me, or at least makes her doubt between Shinji and me, while I was lost in thought suddenly my arm was grabbed, looking at the person who was grabbing my arm I saw Saemi with a tense face while looking at something.
As I followed the direction of his eyes, I noticed that one of the bushes was moving, and as soon as the bush ceased its movement something jumped out of it, the thing that jumped out of it was blue in color, apparently it didn't have eyes, the monster moved in a very sluggish and shapeless way, it also seemed to be very slow, inside it there was a piece of grass dissolving, once the grass was completely dissolved it was possible to see a small crystal inside the monster.
"A Slime?"
I said in amazement, no and that I didn't expect to see one, but it happened rather quickly, in fact the Slime was quite disgusting, and quite different from seeing it through a computer screen and seeing it for real life, Saemi was trembling as she clung to me, I'm sure she thinks I will protect her in case something happens, well, she wasn't totally wrong anyway, but that gave me an idea, if I made Saemi kill Slime it would make her lose some of her fear against monsters, it would also let me know how useful and Saemi's power.
"Hey Saemi, what do you think about trying to kill him?"
As soon as I said that Saemi looked at me in horror, you could tell how scared she was.
"No need to worry, if anything happens, I will protect you, trust me"
I said as I pulled a lock of Saemi's hair with my hand, her flushed face was priceless, everything was going according to my plan, that's right Saemi, trust me more, depend on me more, without me you won't be able to do anything, I’m sure a fearful smile was surrounding my body, but since Saemi had her head down trying to hide her rosy face I'm sure she didn't see it.
"Alright, I'll try"
Saemi said raising her head, in her eyes it was possible to see her new determination.
