A Certain Scientific Code Vader

Chapter 12 - A Certain Confidant Trick

"You're talking about the rumors," Tedashii commented, waving his hand. "Don't worry about that mum-bo-Jumbo Hisoka just goes around making crap up anyways. I'm pretty sure aliens aren't real."

"Don't underestimate Academy City there's never a dull moment!" Mara assisted frantically shaking her head.

"There are aren't they? That's why when I become a judgement member I'll do something about that. Just like the guy who can copy other esper abilities!"

"Copy other esper abilities?" Tedashii says, completely puzzled.

"Oh yeah not too long ago it's been rumor someone is out there copying other people's esper abilities, or more like probably stealing esper powers from people who do bad things." Mara explained while Li Mei nodded eagerly, "It's not the first time this rumor from Auribus Oculi Fideliores Sunt was heard of. It is said the guy who steals other esper powers only appears when the time comes at the bricking depths of darkness."

"Isn't that exciting?!! If this so-called esper thief appears that means the moment will finally arrive!" Li Mei pounced up excitedly fist bumped into the air.

"Why the hell are the depths of hell exciting to you?" Tedashii said scratching his head annoyed.

"Li Mei no one met this so-called thief! This rumor has never been true!" Mara agreed nodding while shrugging her shoulders.

"I know it's true there can't really be nothing too bizarre about someone copying other esper abilities." Li Mei protested as her body seemed like she was doing some power up of energy.

"So much for the digital hero." Mara comments wavering away.

"Who cares! The digital hero is boring Anyways!"

"Tch! So what did you mean this so-called thief?" Tedashii asks, looking over at Li Mei annoyed.

"Well umm... no..."

"Well I'm not gonna believe some ridiculous rumors." Tedashii nods while looking away.

"Are you serious?! Why not? This is a city full of superpower people just like me." Li Mei says, stomping her foot while grinning at Tedashii.

"First of all! There's no way an esper can copy others or steal other esper abilities." Tedashii glared back, waving away his hand at her.

"Don't tell me you're one of those super anti superstitious kinda people." Mara notes, peering at an annoyed Tedashii.

"Fine!" Tedashii crosses his arms and leg then nods with his eyes closed, "Theoretically speaking, what if I abide to this idea, that so called user would have to continuously trace someone's else personal reality, trading off oneself. Do you understand where I'm going with this? He would have to become an entirely different person trading away his whole self to at least natural that said abilities. In case that's impossible considering that person would also have to construct his or her's own theories not to mention what would possibly happen to their bodies from their AMI diffusion fields."

"Okay?" Mara shrugs then nods, "It seems you have provenly exemplified it well."

"Yeah!" Li Mei nodded alongside Mara.

"Look, the power curriculum program doesn't work like that! A personal reality is personal, it doesn't theoretically work like that." Tedashii says, waving his hand with his eyes shut.

Mara continues on with a bold stare and notifies, "Then why do some have abilities that are completely the same as another? Electromaster is a common esper ability alongside telekinesis, precognition, clairvoyance, telepathy, psychometry while there's rare abilities such as teleporters which are currently known to have about fifty-eight with nineteen capable of teleporting."
