I Became the Academy's Kibitz Villain [part 1]

Chapter 69: It's Not Only Riders Who Transform (6)

Drugs.

When people heard this word, their interpretation would suddenly vary.

-Drugs? What's that? Are we talking about the sound of a fart?

Some would think of the sound of 'drugs'.

They were probably having fun watching a trending drama or thought of a character's name that sounded similar.

-When you say drugs, isn't it obviously those breast pads? Did someone commit breast manipulation?

Some would think of breast pads.

Whether their girlfriend wore drugs, or they would turn on the fire in their eyes to find the one who manipulated their size, thinking, 'Which character did breast manipulation?'

-If you're talking about drugs, it's got to be the national drug!

Some would think, based on this light novel's setting, the nationalism drug.

They would feel pride and joy at the fact that the globally famous world-class ability users were Korean.

-Drugs? You've become strong. Charge!

Some would think of a buff.

Whether drugs were a kind of nerve enhancer or stimulant could be concretely distinguished, but generally, when one received drugs in this situation, it would mean a moment when physical or mental abilities improved.

In this way, the word 'drugs' was used in various places.

That was why when people heard the word 'drugs', their thoughts would vary, so it was difficult to interpret the meaning of drugs with just the word.

Context was needed.

I had experienced national drugs and experienced various things in this world, but there was one drug that I never touched before my possession of this character up until now.

You said that drugs were strange?

You kept telling me to stop drugging it up?

How about calling it a different word?

'Drugs'.

A psychoactive substance called methamphetamine.

It was also used as a medicine, but of course, most people who wanted to use this were looking to enjoy the pleasure that drugs offered.

The drug I was referring to was precisely this narcotic substance.

And it was not just for the general public but a substance for 'ability users.'

So, the question was,

Was it a commonly used drug?

No.

To the average person, it was just ordinary white powder, but there was a powder that showed a tremendous effect even more than drugs when an ability user inhaled it - a drug specifically for those with special powers.

The official name was 'Mana Powder.'

It was an item strictly prohibited, even in dire situations. A substance that, when ingested, enhanced supernatural abilities, amplified magical power, and strengthened mana output.

After taking it, just like ordinary drugs, they would become addicted and could no longer live their daily life, and all the people who touched this thing would become 'villains.'

Why did such a thing exist in this world?

At first, everyone didn't know of its existence.

Both in terms of setting and my research, Mana Powder began to be circulated in the market around 2015, according to this world's standards.
