Good Grief, Who are You?

'Hello' :Saiki thinking to himself

'Hello': Saiki talking to others

'hello': Other's thoughts

"Hello" : Normal speaking

----------------------------------------------------------

Saiki wanders into a jewelry store as he puts away his last sliver coin.

'Maybe I'll find a replacement in here. Haaaa, I never thought I would say this, but I miss Kusuke. Only because he was the one who made my limiters.' He thought and scanned the shop with his eyes, letting a soft sigh out.

He softly rubs his temple as all the voices are starting to give him a headache. He really needed to find something to lessen the radius of his telepathy.

Saiki finds an open table labeled 'Clearance'. 'Despite this being a whole different language, I can read and understand it. It's quite odd since I've never seen anything like this before.' He thinks as he picks up a pair of green stud earrings.

Suddenly, most of the voices were quiet, he can only hear the workers' thoughts and a couple of people outside. His eyes widened. He puts the earrings down and then picking them up again to check.

'Bingo. These will work just fine, even if it's just for my telepathy.' Saiki thought as a slight smile twitched the corner of his lips. But he quickly puts his stoic face back on.

He walks over to the counter as a worker comes over to him in confusion. Saiki puts the earrings on the counter , having to stand on his tip toes since he is a short child. 'Damn this child body. Ugh, I wish I could change forms.' He said to himself and inwardly sighs.

Saiki stares at the worker and places the sliver coin right next to the earrings.

'Hello, I would like to purchase these earrings.' Saiki spoke right into the worker's mind.

The worker looked a bit spooked and nodded softly, taking the coin and the earrings. They box up the earrings and hand Saiki back his change, which was just a couple of copper coins.

Saiki gives a soft smile as he does a slight bow as a thank you. He walked out of the store and walked back into an alleyway.

He feels his earlobes, 'Good grief...I was too excited that I forgot my ears were pierced.' He thought and sighed softly. Saiki looks around for something to help with this situation.

Saiki just sighed as he found nothing. He takes the earrings out of the box, looking at them. He was worried that he would bend the posts if he forced them in. He takes a deep breath and forces the earrings in his earlobes. Surprisingly, they go in easily.

He sighed as he fixed them on, and now his mind was slightly quieter. 'It's better than before but not as silent as when I put the geranium ring on.' He thought and sat against the wall, looking at his leftover coins.

'Will this be enough for a place to stay? I already exchanged the clothes I was wearing earlier but I'm not exchanging my wallet. It'll be a hassle to get a new school ID.' He sighs and holds his head in his hands, thinking. He wanted to go home, but he couldn't even teleport back. It was like certain powers of his are heavily restricted.

After an hour, Saiki was walking through the streets with his hands in his pockets. 'Turns out I didn't have enough to stay at any of these inns. Great, getting these limiter replacements were worth it, though. I could always just brainwash the clerks to let me stay, but that's a bit too much use of my power that I wanna do.'He sighs and closes his eyes as he walks.

Suddenly, he bumps straight into someone and falls back on his butt. 'The hell? Who did I bump into? I thought I could hear everyone's thoughts here.' He opens his eyes and looks up, rubbing his temple softly.

Saiki sees a red-haired man with reddish brown fox eyes and pale skin. The man was skim, wearing something simple, yet he could tell this man was from nobility. But the thing is...

Saiki can't read this man's mind.

Saiki knew for a fact that this man wasn't a moron like Nendo. Something was blocking his telepathy towards this man.

He stood up and brushed off his clothes,looking at this man's company. A black haired, black-eyed swordsman. And a tall elf like man with golden hair and gold eyes. He could only hear the swordsman's thoughts to his surprise.

'Who's this pink hair child bumping into Cale-nim? I don't think I've ever met anyone with this bright of hair..' Saiki heard the swordsman think. He assumes the red-haired man is called Cale.

'Great, both of these men have protagonist aura around them. Am I getting involved with the main characters?' Saiki thought and sighed inwardly.

Cale crouches down to Saiki's height. His sharp eyes softened slightly, "You alright, kid? You walked pretty fast into me." He spoke as his eyes wandered all over the child's appearance. "You have a place to stay?" Cale asked.

Saiki knew by the look in Cale's eyes that he had a soft spot for children. Despite his better judgment as to not get involvement with main characters, he had nowhere else to go.

He made sure that all three men could hear his telepathy, ' I'm fine, sir, I just wasn't paying attention to where I was going. And...no I don't. I only have a couple of coins left so I can afford to stay anywhere.' Saiki spoke directly into their minds. He saw the golden elf man look as him with confused eyes as the black haired swordsman looked around confused.

Saiki couldn't tell what Cale was thinking as his face seemed to not change expression. He hoped his child act could help him.

Cale reached his hand out for Saiki to take. "Well, how about I feed you and help you find a place to stay. For now you can come with me." Saiki takes the hand as Cale stood up.

Saiki looked back over at the swordsman as he heard the thoughts, ' As expected of Cale-nim! Helping small child.' Saiki sighed to himself.

'How can a person be so much like a dog?' Saiki thought as he walked with the small group.

'They just seem like normal fantasy medieval people. Hopefully, I can hide the rest of my powers and find a way back home.' He thought to himself.

Oh, was Saiki wrong.
