Volume Two: Life and Death at Speed in the Northern Border - Navigator and Registration

"Givinia!?"

"What? You two know each other?" Alice asked Ally.

"Hmm... We met on the ferry that brought us here."

"Thanks to A Ye's company, I was able to get through the remaining two days of the trip safely," Givinia said with a smile. Her smile was as gentle as a spring breeze, and although it did not have the captivating charm of the bright moon, it made people feel indescribably comfortable.

"In short, welcome, Miss Soler-- "

"Just call me Givinia."

"Alright, Givinia, welcome to the Ferruggio Silver Wolf Team! Um..."

Ally glanced at Givinia's body, her eyebrows twitching slightly, a strange light flashing in her eyes.

I know what she's thinking. As a combatant, I don't need to say anything; Ally is quite agile, clearly well-trained, while Ailin, though petite, doesn't seem weak, obviously possessing a certain physical foundation, and Givinia...

Her hands, holding the parasol, and her legs, protruding from her capri pants, were all fair and slender. Her arms and legs were also rather thin, making her look nothing like someone with good physical fitness. For someone with poor physical condition to participate in a rally race, which is an extreme test of the human body, is tantamount to suicide.

"If you doubt my physical fitness, then you are overthinking it—Miss Ally, my apologies."

"Huh? Ah!"

With a sudden stomp of her feet, Givinia moved to Ally's side, and with a swift movement of her arms, she grabbed Ally and held her tightly in a grappling grip!

Wow, so fast!

Moreover, I saw it very clearly: Givinia did not use any superpowers just now, which means those two moves were pure martial arts!

"How are you?" Givinia loosened her grip, and Ally quickly broke free, rubbing her neck and panting heavily.

"Impressive skills! You really can't judge a book by its cover... Very good, you've passed!"

"I haven't even shown my navigator skills yet...!"

"Ah, right," Ally slapped her forehead and stuck out her tongue, "Alright then, can you read maps, locate positions, scout routes, identify enemies, and manage daily chores?"

"The ability to interpret maps and manage daily tasks will only be revealed after the competition begins. As for positioning, scouting, and enemy detection... well, you'll see~"

"What are you looking at--Eek!?"

One, two, three, four, five, ten, a hundred—hundreds of "Givinia" appeared out of thin air around us, filling our field of vision. Each "Givinia" had a different posture and movement, but all of them looked exactly like the real one!

Although they are all incredibly beautiful girls, having hundreds of them appearing together... is simply mental pollution!

"This is my special ability— Mind Projection. I can Consciousness Projection into the surrounding environment, up to tens of kilometers away. Each projection is connected to my main consciousness, meaning I can share vision with the projection and investigate various situations in the distance. Of course, these projections are just phantoms of my thoughts; I can see and hear them but can't touch them, so they have no offensive power, but they are perfect for investigation. Moreover, I can also communicate with others through projections, easily conducting long-distance communications."

"Tens of kilometers... does that mean you can easily see the road conditions tens of kilometers away?"

"Of course, but the farther the projection distance and the more projections there are, the greater the spiritual energy consumed. At a distance of tens of kilometers, I can only keep one or two projections stable at most."

"That's enough! Welcome to the team! Here's the contract, fill it out and go register!"

"Alright... Write it at the bottom, right, Givinia... Sorel... all done."

"Finally done! I'll send you the team uniforms later..."

"I suggest you go register first. I left a projection at the registration desk so you can see what's going on there—it's already packed. If you don't go now, it'll be too late."

So we sped towards the registration area. There were so many people that we couldn't drive.

"There's a fight on the left ahead, keep to the right!"

"A large group of people is about to pass through this road, speed up and rush across!"

"Turn left first! There are too many people ahead!"

Wow, that's amazing...

Givinia Consciousness Projection across the plaza, observing the situation in each area. She then compiled the information and pointed out the best route to the registration area for us. Thanks to her, we didn't find the journey particularly crowded; this ability was ridiculously convenient.

Before long, we arrived at the cabin where we had registered. Despite the long run, none of the four of us showed any signs of fatigue, and even Givinia, who seemed to be in the worst physical condition, wasn't out of breath.

There was no one in front of the cabin, so we could sign up immediately without having to wait in line.

"How about that? I not only scouted the road conditions, but I also calculated the timing. Now is the perfect moment, the last group has just left and the next group hasn't arrived yet. We don't need to wait at all."

"Givinia, you're amazing! With you on the team, winning the championship is no dream! O(mouth)"
