Original author note

A note of caution

This is a self-congratulatory novel by myself for myself.

Please overlook typos and omissions.

The setting is messy.

Gudako = Ritsuka Fujimaru

If you're okay with that, go ahead!

"Have you decided who you're going to work with? You haven't decided yet, have you?"

"No, I don't need to look for a partner, I can just use my own quirk to... Oh, Fujimaru, you're still here? I thought you had already been eliminated."

"Come on don't say that, let's work together. There are no other member from the regular course anymore... I mean, isn't your quirk a bit of a cheat in this competition?"

That's right. In the second event, the cavalry battle, each team's rider competes for the headband held by the other team's rider, and the total points of the headband are awarded.

In other words, as long as people don't know how shinso's 'brainwashing' quirk work, they can practically catch all the headband they want.

It's a guaranteed victory.

"... No., not really. My quirk only works when the other party respond to my call, in other words, as long as they don't respond to my call, my quirk wouldn't work. And if they come at me by force, I won't stand a chance"

"So, I'm going to start off by not moving too much, and then just before the end, I'm going to try to take some points from the other team."

Shinso then let a big sigh after telling ritsuka the true nature of his quirk. It's not a good feeling to have your strategy easily discovered, but now that he has exposed himself, it's not a good idea to let Ritsuka go to another team.

"Since you already know so much, I can't let you be on the other team. Come on, let's go."

"Yay! The jockey is Shinso-kun, right?

Then I guess I don't have to use my quirk this time."

"Yeah I guess... Fujimaru's quirk is a fighting type, right?

If my quirk doesn't work I'm counting on you."

Sure enough, Shinso's strategy worked, and the two came out on top easily, without having to rely on Ritsuka's quirk, they were able to advance to the third event.

Ritsuka Fujimaru

quirk: "Heroic spirit possession (Grand Order)"

She can imbue herself with the power of a hero from the past. There is no change in her basic appearance, but the color of her eyes will be the same as that of the heroic spirit. Sometimes she can use the same ornaments as the heroic spirit. For example, Hasan's mask.

The higher the rarity of the Servant she summon, whether it be 4 or 5 stars, the greater the burden on her body.

The maximum number of servants per day is about three. More than that, and her body will be overloaded. If she only use 5 stars, the limit is about 1 or 2.

The spirit can talk to her in her head.

It was good that I remembered my previous life, but at first I was worried for a while that it was all just my imagination.

In the end, I didn't have to use my quirk in the cavalry battle.

Shinso Hitoshi

A dear friend to Ritsuka.

.

I've never seen it in action, so I still don't really understand her quirk.

She doesn't tell me much about herself.

That's why my impression of Ritsuka is that she seems to be weak.

But then again, she passed the obstacle course.
