An Adult Creates the Secret Organization he Dreamed of as a Child There"s a Heroine! I Know, Right! Nice Timing! Part 1

Please read only on

Since I decided to make a secret society, the next day I immediately put forth my letter of resignation and proceeded to try to s.n.a.t.c.h up all the paid days off I had acc.u.mulated by threatening my boss with a lawsuit; he accepted after I agreed to my days off being unpaid. I just don"t understand a company that isn"t able to accept taking your paid days off with you when you resign and will tear up your letter of resignation if you don"t threaten them. It"s not very j.a.panese right? Thoroughly resigning was the correct decision. Anyway, I was able to wait two months until I retired. Let"s confirm the hand I have to play with before pushing forwards with our "exciting secret organization formation strategy".

First of all; a.s.sets. My savings total to 1.2 million yen. The "base" is an apartment in the Tokyo suburbs (20 years old). Vehicle is a Super Cub1 aged 30 years inherited from my senpai in university who received it from his older brother. Refrigerator and microwave, TV, air conditioning, a PC; as well as general home appliances; there are also manga, novels, DVDs, and games. My pressure resistant steel-toed boots were damaged by a psychokinesis barrier I made, and my Balinese souvenir mask caused trouble by being too distinctive and similar to the mask worn for a "lion dance", so I got rid of it.

Next, friendships and connections. Well, normal. My family is my parents, my grandparents who are still alive, and no siblings. I do have cousins that could be considered siblings since we get along well, but I only see them during New Year. I went out a couple of times with my business a.s.sociates and exchanged contacts with a customer of a business partner, and I have the addresses of some of my colleagues and old school friends in my smartphone. These guys often invite me to join them if they go out drinking, but I don"t go with them very often.

Rich people or something like the son of a distinguished family or the heir of an ancient martial arts dojo or even, among other things, foremost elites; none of these kinds of people exist in my network. Speaking of what was the most unusual connection, when I went traveling overseas, while on a train I made the acquaintance of Bob the Wrestler2; he gave me his e-mail address, but it was weird and I couldn"t understand it, so that doesn"t count as a successful additional contact. That address was not normal!

Continuing onward to the most important part, my personal specs. Graduated from National Sanmon University3 with a degree in engineering, spent 2 years in the workforce until I set myself free from the life of a salaryman. 24 year-old male, height: 172cm, weight: 65kg. No health abnormalities, and I don"t have any pre-existing medical conditions. My medical history does include a case of chickenpox though. The back teeth on the right are gone due to tooth decay during junior high school. Qualifications in possession include a general driver"s license and STEP Eiken Grade Pre-1 certification4.

Psychokinesis. The output is impossible to measure. According to previous calculations, I could probably lift up Mt. Everest and still have power left over. Since coming up with the idea of building up the burden on myself by burdening my psychokinesis with psychokinesis, my output seems to continue rising, I don"t know at what point it will stop. Perhaps it might break the earth like in a gag manga5.

3 months ago the range was such that I could reach the opposite side of the earth. There"s no place on Earth my powers do not reach. I will find you, even if you"re hiding in the toilet!

Nevertheless, even after becoming a working adult I continued to train my psychokinesis little by little, granting it all five senses; I"m able to taste, smell, touch, hear, and see things from every corner of the world without leaving my room in my apartment.

Combat capability. I previously calculated that I"m able to deploy a continuous, strong barrier that surrounds by body and could perfectly defend against the giant meteorite that triggered the extinction of the dinosaurs. I can also use psychokinesis as a poison gas counter-measure by having it form a compressed air tank, then put it to good use by being able to breathe safely for a while. My [Barrier] can also function as thermal insulation. By training using radionuclides kept in the laboratory of the university, I"m also able to block radiation. I can block radio waves and electromagnetic waves as well. I can withstand 10 G"s by reproducing a anti-G-suit with my psychokinesis and move at high speeds via psychokinetic propulsion. Fighting in the dark poses no obstacle; I can secure a light source by igniting compressed air (plasmafication), or I can possibly use my [Sixth Sense]. Of course, I can also work in outer s.p.a.ce,the deep sea, or surrounded by magma.

Hmm, it"s like I"m a superhuman. There"s really nothing for me to fight? These days, I can"t get excited by any crisis at all; not even the crises you see in movies, like a meteorite crashing into earth or an alien invasion, would be enough to excite me. "That"s on the small fry level of difficulty", is my only thought.

Well, things like healing, super self-regeneration, teleportation, stopping time, manipulating the laws of cause and effect, perpetual youth and other such fantasy manga abilities are not at all usable, so unfortunately I"m not absolutely invincible or omnipotent. Even if cancer or AIDS usually results in death, it"s good to have resolve and endure, that way you won"t lose even if you"re beaten or if the whole world turns against you.

Now then, using the above-mentioned hand I"ve been dealt, I will now do what I"ve always wanted to do. Although, it"s said that lost youth will never come back. I am not as old as an old man, but it"s not a fresh age either. I"m a human who has missed the most glittering time in his life. I know that there are no ESP super secret societies in the world, there are no invaders from other worlds, and I also know that there are no old human beings recovered from Cold Sleep. My romantic dreams don"t exist. In the end, making a secret organization is just playing around after all.

At least, for me it is.

But what should I do about members of the secret society? Should I, for example, appear wearing black clothes in front of a high school boy with too much time on his hands and suddenly (taking care to go super-easy on him) attack with my psychokinesis? And should I then have him be helped by a beautiful girl that"s actually a puppet that"s controlled by my psychokinesis? And then have the boy be guided and influenced by the (fake) magical girl, and eventually have him be guided to be underneath the leader of the secret society (which is the same person who attacked him, in other words, me) that pursues super powers for evil…

As far as the involved high school student is concerned, it will be a vivid and astonishing introduction to the extraordinary, even though in reality it"s a s.h.i.tty self-made production. The high school student will be happy that his boredom has been broken. While it will make me jealous and wish to repeat my own past, I"ll also be happy for him. Everyone wins.

It"s absolutely fun. If there is no connection, make it! If there is no drama, I will direct it!

Oh yeah, and just try to pa.s.s judgement on me for playing with people"s lives and deceiving them. If I was similarly tricked and deceived like that in my youth I wouldn"t have minded, since I would get what I wished for (bitter tears). I expect a considerable number of people who are stuck in the same gloominess exist. If that"s not the case, then there"s no reason for their being so much support for the typical, worn out story of a high school student awakening their miraculous powers.

I"m still OK because I had an outlet called psychokinesis, but for someone who"s unable to endure their desire for the extraordinary, it would result in "being irritated and unable to be happy”. If that could change into "Those who are irritated enter a secret organization and are now satisfied", it"s possible that it could further contribute to society, although it"s a bit forced.

Good! Self-justification completed.

Let me list the actual things I want to do:

Be the boss of both the secret society and its enemy. It"s kept secret from everyone! Make a secret base at the South Pole Prepare a mysterious enemy, like someone who comes from a different world The mysterious enemy probably aims at an unknown resource that sleeps in the earth or something To go along with the above, form a secret society that fights the darkness of the world Establish branch offices around the world Recruit members. "Actually, sleeping inside you are hidden powers" (they aren"t actually asleep, they don"t exist) Grant codename and cla.s.s to secret society members Mascot characters are good It"d be cool to make the government move with one phone call, wouldn"t it? Knowing everyone"s true ident.i.ty is no sure thing The level of funds being too low is no laughing matter. Seek investor. The organization will shine with an an operator "supporting the entire house from under the floor"6 and refined mechanisms I want to set up emergency meeting signals I"d like for there to be women in it. They don"t necessarily have to be beautiful women. I just don"t want a secret society full of men

Is it too much to ask for all of this? Umu, looking at it again, this is awful. Does this list belong to a delusional chuuni? But you know, it"s definitely possible to realize all of this.

… even if I say that, until a little while ago, I was scared. Why was I not able to do this? Because it"s scary. But it"ll absolutely be fun if it can be realized. Let"s do it.
