Sense Detection D
So, it’s Saturday.
The place was bustling with people, probably because it’s a day off from school and work.
And since this town isn’t exactly a metropolis, there aren’t too many places to hang out. It’s only natural that people would flock to the shopping mall, where various entertainment facilities are lined up.
“And that’s exactly why it’s perfect for training,” I thought to myself.
The meeting time was approaching.
As usual, I arrived 30 minutes early. It’s partly a matter of manners, but in this case, I couldn’t bear to leave her alone.
Today, Shirogane was going to walk through the shopping mall wearing nothing but a coat over her naked body.
“…S-Sorry for the wait…”
There she was. It’s October, an awkward time of year, but today the temperature had dropped significantly due to the passage of a cold front. So, it didn’t seem out of place for her to be wearing a coat.
She looked somewhat awkward from afar.
And it’s no wonder.
Being naked underneath, she was unconsciously walking strangely due to embarrassment and nervousness.
“How are you feeling?”
“!?”
She glared at me. Well, that was to be expected.
“Sorry. But thank you for doing as I suggested. It’s just right for your training.”
“I don’t get it…!”
“I’ll explain later.”
For now, I wanted to reset the situation where she was attracting even more attention due to her unusual behavior on top of her already striking appearance.
“Shall we go to a less crowded area?”
So, I led her to a secluded spot I had scoped out in advance, away from the crowds.
“You chose to wear the duffle coat you had before. I think it suits you.”
“Thank you… You’re wearing normal clothes even though you said you didn’t have any.”
“I bought them because I thought wearing a uniform while walking with you would be awkward.”
Yes, I, of all people, was walking through a public facility wearing decent civilian clothes. I never thought such a day would come.
Shirogane is a famous person.
Since this mall is one of the few entertainment facilities in town, it’s a place where students from our school often come on holidays.
What would it look like if I, wearing a uniform, walked with her? It would definitely be troublesome.
“I think it’s better to at least hide the fact that I’m ‘Uchiro Shuuichi.’…”
“I don’t think it’s necessary to hide…”
“Thanks. But it might cause you trouble.”
I still vividly remember the incident with the boys at school over our relationship.
Although I can’t imagine that there’s a girl who likes me, the misunderstanding that Shirogane is a girl who messes around with any guy might arise.
Especially if it’s the boys at school.
In order to take some precautionary measures, I decided to dress differently from usual and wear a mask to hide my face.
“In this day and age, as long as you wear a hat and a mask, you won’t attract too much suspicion. And since there’s a man next to you, even if you attract attention, you won’t be bothered. —On top of that, I want you to walk through the mall from now on.”
“Why?”
“Of course, it’s for training you to sense presence.”
Even if we talk about presence, it’s not necessarily about fantasy-like killing intent or aura.
Footsteps, breathing sounds, disturbances in the air, vibrations in the ground, etc… Human movements surprisingly have a significant influence on their surroundings.
Moreover, humans do possess the ability to sense these things.
“After that, there’s something called a quasi-static field, and humans are covered by a weak electric membrane. There’s a theory that this is the true nature of presence.”
“I see…”
“The most sensitive receptors for this are body hairs.”
In other words, it could be scientifically correct to say that I feel others’ presence most intensely when I’m completely naked.
“The true nature of what can’t be seen but can definitely be sensed is referred to as ‘presence.'”
“….It’s unexpectedly scientific or theoretical, to be honest, I’m surprised.”
“Just saying ‘presence’ vaguely wouldn’t make much sense, right? Breaking it down like this makes it easier to understand intuitively.”
I was like that at first too. I thought, “I’m not some expert or esper who can sense presence, so there’s no way I can do it.”
But as I researched more, I gradually came to understand it intellectually, and eventually, I could sense it with my body.
“Well, you can ignore stuff about the quasi-static field. Honestly, I only understand it through my senses.”
“It’s surprising that you can understand it through your ‘senses.’”
“Let’s focus on what we can perceive with our ears and skin, like footsteps, breathing sounds, vibrations from the ground, and changes in airflow.”
There’s probably no one who has never felt these things in their life. They’re just common things we don’t usually pay attention to.
“But just being told to be aware of it won’t make sense, right?”
“Well, yeah.”
“So that’s why it’s a full-naked coat.”
“Can you stop jumping ahead three steps?”
“Sorry.”
But logically, it’s quite simple. After all, the only time we need to sense presence is when we’re exposed.
So it’s quicker to train ourselves to be as close to that sensation as possible.
And the answer to that is the full-naked coat.
“You’re wearing a coat and socks, but otherwise, you’re naked. Your crotch must feel chilly, especially, right?”
“It’s freezing… It’s so embarrassing to be like this in a crowded place like this… I feel like dying…”
“That heightened sensitivity makes it easier to be aware.”
The explanation is over.
Now, it’s just a matter of gaining experience on the ground.
With the full-naked coat, it doesn’t violate any laws, and it doesn’t bother anyone.
“Well, let’s go around for a bit. It’s okay, I’m with you, so I don’t think anyone will try to pick you up.”
“I’ll definitely kick your butt later…!”
If that’s all it takes, I thought, I’d accept it willingly.
