All My Superpowers Come from the Law of Causality-Chapter 91: Provocation

After arriving at school.

Su Xin still couldn’t calm down completely.

He now already possesses four superpowers, and if he were to choose two to upgrade, the first choice would certainly be the Concealment Prayer.

This superpower is currently the most frequently used.

And the most practical.

As for the second choice.

The Unyielding Dead is excluded.

Just like before, the same thought prevails: this superpower currently doesn’t have any urgent shortcomings to address, so there is no pressing necessity to upgrade it.

Therefore, he has to choose between Other-Transformation and Damage Transfer.

Previously, Su Xin might have felt that Other-Transformation needed upgrading first, as it’s essential for gathering intelligence.

But now.

The Volcano is already dead, along with other people from the Nirvana Association and even some from the oligarchs, all killed by his own hand.

The revenge for his parents is essentially concluded.

Going forward, there’s no need to actively seek out the Nirvana Association’s intelligence; he’ll just eliminate them when they come to him. If they don’t approach him, he doesn’t plan to continue the vendetta for now.

In short, in Su Xin’s mind, the revenge for his parents reached a temporary end after killing so many that night.

Hence, the Other-Transformation superpower doesn’t have much use for the time being.

Therefore, between Other-Transformation and Damage Transfer, he still wants to upgrade Damage Transfer first.

Or... he could spread the upgrades evenly.

With these twenty thousand Karma Points, aside from using ten thousand Karma Points to upgrade the Concealment Prayer, he uses the remaining ten thousand to raise the other three superpowers to LV3, leaving him with seven thousand Karma Points.

Once he gathers enough Karma Points, he’ll upgrade Damage Transfer to LV4, which seems feasible.

Su Xin pondered for a while and felt this balanced distribution approach seems better.

...

Time quietly slips by.

Unwittingly, it’s already time to leave school.

Only when the school bell rang did Su Xin snap out of his textbook.

Watching his classmates gradually leave the classroom, he dazedly took out his phone and checked the time. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

"Huh? It’s past five o’clock?"

"The system mission hasn’t triggered?"

Su Xin scratched his head, puzzled.

Thinking it over, he felt it might be related to the completion status of the last mission.

"Could it be because the last mission was completed too slowly? The system has a hidden punishment mechanism?"

"The previous three missions were all completed on the same day, except for the last [Empathy] mission, which was triggered on Sunday and completed on Monday."

"That should be the only difference."

"Just don’t know exactly what this hidden punishment is? If it’s merely delaying the trigger time of new missions, that’s fine, but if there’s something else... forget it, hopefully, there aren’t other punishments."

"In any case, future missions seem to need to be completed quickly, ideally on the first day, to see if new missions trigger every three days again."

Su Xin frowned, leaving the classroom.

After exiting the school gate, he headed towards the nearby food court. Since returning to a normal school routine a few days ago, he resumed the habit of eating three regular meals a day, visiting the local food court after school for dinner.

For him, eating wasn’t merely for sustenance but to enjoy delicious food—various fried foods, high-sugar, high-salt, and highly-spicy dishes of strong flavors—and he indulges in them without restraint.

Anyway, he’s not worried about his body breaking down from eating.

Not long after leaving the campus, while walking on a not particularly wide road, a small shadow suddenly flew onto him, bumped him lightly, and fell to the ground.

Su Xin glanced down.

It was a cigarette butt, only half remaining.

White smoke was still curling from it.

And there was already a small black scorch mark on his school uniform.

At this moment, a voice full of provocation sounded from not far away—

"Hey! Kid!"

Su Xin turned his head, seeing five delinquent young men standing by the roadside, one of them, a young man with yellow hair, looking at him arrogantly:

"Don’t you have eyes? You knocked my cigarette out, now go buy me a pack!"

The other four also looked at him intentionally or unintentionally.

Su Xin frowned, looking coldly at them, his foot slightly raised, prepared to take the initiative and deal with this group of punks, but then he seemed to remember something, and put his foot down, saying indifferently:

"No money."

Due to the existence of the Damage Transfer superpower, if he took the initiative to attack, all attacks would automatically transfer to others, making it easy for people to notice something unusual.

Therefore, he must wait for them to attack first before setting up a Counter-Curse on them, allowing him to attack them normally.

He practiced this yesterday.

When directly attacking the curse target, the Damage Transfer effect also appears on the target, manifesting just like a normal person’s attack, showing no signs of the Damage Transfer effect.

If it weren’t for this trait, Su Xin might never be able to fight normally with others again.

He’s grateful that he successfully upgraded this superpower yesterday, otherwise, today he’d either endure humiliation or expose his superpower by violently retaliating.

If he encountered such a situation, his choice would likely be the latter, and that way, he might never return to a normal life track again.

"Little brat! Pretty stubborn, huh?"

Seeing Su Xin didn’t obediently listen, the yellow-haired punk cursed, swaggering over, and shoved Su Xin.

Su Xin was pushed back a small step.

His gaze cooled as a result.

The killing intent cultivated over these days subtly emerged with the change in his expression.

Just that shove from the opponent met the criteria for Damage Transfer superpower to recognize as an attack, Su Xin immediately set up a Counter-Curse and then threw a punch.

The yellow-haired young man didn’t expect Su Xin, an ordinary high school student, not only wouldn’t shrink before them but would initiate an attack; caught off guard, he was punched in the face by Su Xin.

"Bang!"

The man groaned and retreated.

"Damn, this kid dares to fight?"

"Get him!"

"Beat him!"

The other four rushed forward.

Su Xin, fearless, met them head-on, pounding the yellow-haired young man with a flurry of punches, allowing the other four’s fists and feet to land on him.

Until the yellow-haired young man’s face was bloody and unable to resist, then he set the Counter-Curse on another one, and began grappling with him.

The dull sound of fists hitting flesh echoed continuously, occasionally accompanied by a scream or roar.

The fight breaking out here attracted the attention of many passersby, but most merely glanced from afar and kept their distance.

In a distant corner.

A young man puffing on a cigarette saw this scene and froze for a moment, cursing softly.

Then, he removed the cigarette from his lips, threw it casually to the ground, and walked briskly towards them, sternly shouting:

"Stop!"
