The Paradise of Reincarnation Begins with Eriri.

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "???"

who am I?

Where am i?

What are you talking about?

"Substitute Technique..."

Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was writing a light novel in her room, tilted her head slightly and pondered seriously.

"I remember now."

"In the Silent Hill instance, my junior defeated the player blocking the bridge and obtained a one-time ninjutsu scroll from him..."

Since it was Kiyono Makoto who defeated the opponent, the girls all tacitly agreed that the ninjutsu scroll belonged to Kiyono Makoto.

But the situation is clearly different now.

"That good-for-nothing young lady said something about 'the Stand Jutsu being terrible,' so... she also learned the Stand Jutsu?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha is incredibly intelligent and quickly deduced the truth from the smallest clues.

"And combining that with what we just said... Junior, you've awakened the ability to turn one-time scrolls into permanent items?"

at the same time.

Eriri keenly noticed the question mark raised by her senior:

"What's with the question mark? Could it be that some fat woman hasn't learned the Substitute Technique yet?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "..."

Not only had I never learned about it, I was completely unaware of its existence.

Kato Megumi sent a message to explain:

"Kiyono-kun has awakened a new ability, which allows him to turn one-time skill scrolls into permanent items, such as the previous ninjutsu scrolls. However, after each learning, it takes a whole day to repair itself... Perhaps he hasn't had time to tell Kasumigaoka-senpai yet."

"Too late?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyes subtly turned dangerous as she reached out and grabbed the stress-relieving frog on the desk, squeezing it until it deformed.

"It's just a single sentence, yet it's been kept secret until now, and it seems like everyone has already learned it... Junior, you'd better give me a satisfactory explanation."

Chapter 107 Embracing Twin Leaves, Gently Replenishing Mana

"...Strange, why is it a bit cold?"

Across the void, Kiyono Makoto suddenly felt a faint chill creeping over him, as if he were being watched by a dangerous being.

"The beastly instincts weren't activated... it must be an illusion."

Kiyono Makoto shook his head, not giving it much thought:

"Since everyone has agreed, then Shuangye and I will buy the skill scrolls and nano spray. Shuangye and I will pay for them with the points first, and everyone can transfer the points back when we meet at the dock tomorrow."

"..."

"It's done."

Seino Makoto put away his phone and looked at Futaba:

"Let's buy the magic scroll first."

"it is good."

Rio Futaba nodded slightly and entered the player forum to begin trading.

Before long, an ice-blue scroll appeared out of thin air in Shuangye's hand.

The moment the scroll appeared, a chilling coldness noticeably filled the air, and a biting wind swept through.

"It can be used as an air conditioner in the summer... I'll buy the spray."

While complaining, Kiyono Makoto opened the Paradise Shop and spent 2,000 points to buy a nano spray with the "Repair" attribute.

"Now comes the moment to witness a miracle..."

Kiyono Makoto took a deep breath and decisively seized the entry on the nano spray.

With the [Repair] attribute stolen, the silver spray that originally shone with a faint glow seemed to have been eroded by time, its luster quickly dimmed and disappeared, and large patches of rust appeared on the surface, giving it the feeling of having burned out.

"Add a term".

Kiyono Makoto carefully added the repair entry to the ice magic scroll.

A glimmer of light flashed by.

The scroll appears unchanged, but after activating the Eye of Observation, a brand new entry can be clearly seen at the top of the scroll.

"Entry added successfully."

Kiyono Makoto let out a soft sigh and handed the scroll to the bespectacled girl next to him:

"Futaba, you should learn ice magic first."

"Huh?"

Rio Futaba was taken aback by his words, then instinctively refused:

"Kiyono-kun, you can start learning first."

“It doesn’t matter which way you go,” Kiyono Makoto said casually. “You can learn it first and see if you can link it with my water magic.”

Upon hearing this, Rio Futaba pursed her lips in surprise.

"……I see."

The scroll unfolds.

Countless pale blue hexagonal ice crystals flew out rapidly, carrying white mist and cold air, like a miniature blizzard, and quickly entered Rio Futaba's body.

Click, click.

As the number of times it could be used for learning ran out, countless tiny cracks quickly appeared on the surface of the ice magic scroll, as if it would crumble and dissolve at any moment.

But within the crack, a faint white light quietly permeated, like glue, forcefully sealing the crack together.

“Very good, there is no problem with the scroll.”

Kiyono Makoto nodded in satisfaction, completely unconcerned about the cracks on the surface of the magic scroll.

As long as it doesn't shatter on the spot, and there's a repair option available, it's just a matter of time.

"Futaba, what kind of magic do you know?"

Kiyono looked over curiously.

Rio Futaba's eyelashes fluttered slightly as she opened her eyes, her pupils sparkling:

"The ice magic I acquired is called 'Frost Shield'..."

As she spoke, Rio Futaba stretched out her right hand, and a pale blue, icy mist quickly spread out, causing the temperature in the air to drop rapidly.

The icy mist quickly condensed, soon transforming into a pale blue ice shield, resembling a large pot lid, floating in front of Rio Futaba.

"Frost Shield can block and absorb physical damage, and it can also block a certain amount of ice damage proportionally. As long as you have enough mental energy, it can last indefinitely." Rio Futaba was clearly quite satisfied. "In addition, Frost Shield can also be controlled by will, and it is not only limited to blocking damage from the front."

Kiyono Makoto stretched out his right hand and curiously tapped the frost shield, producing a crisp sound:

"It looks good, but the area is a bit small... Next, let's see if we can link it with water magic."

"it is good."

"..."

Let's give it a try.

Kiyono Makoto made a grasping motion in mid-air, and a ball of water the size of a basketball quickly condensed. As his water magic skill level increased, coupled with the [BOSS Template] attribute, the amount of water and the casting speed significantly improved.

Under Makoto Kiyono's control, the water sphere quickly landed on the frost shield.

"...It seems like I can absorb Kiyono-kun's water magic."

Rio Futaba's eyes lit up slightly. Under her mental control, the Frost Shield quickly absorbed the water, and its area increased, transforming into a giant frost shield that exuded cold air, steadily covering most of her body.

"Sure enough, bigger is better."

Kiyono Makoto nodded in satisfaction.

"I feel like I can do even more..."

Rio Futaba murmured softly, and under her mental control, the Frost Shield split and transformed in mid-air, turning into pieces of blue armor that covered Rio Futaba's upper body.

"Iron Man of Frost?"

Kiyono Makoto's eyes brightened.

No harm? It doesn't matter, being handsome is something that lasts a lifetime.

Moreover, the frost shield, which could only defend one direction, has been transformed into an all-around, undefended frost armor, making it significantly stronger. Clearly, ice magic and water magic do have a synergistic effect, with one plus one being greater than two.

"Well……"

His cool demeanor lasted less than three seconds before a low, frustrated groan suddenly rang out from the girl.

Click, click.

The frost armor, now out of control, shattered instantly, turning into countless ice crystals and disappearing without a trace.

"what happened?"

Kiyono Makoto grabbed the swaying girl and hugged her tightly.

“/?un-栮尹氵焐崎韭锍sαnYour head suddenly hurts so much…”

Rio Futaba's face was pale, her voice was distressed, and her delicate eyebrows were tightly furrowed.

Kiyono Makoto immediately understood:

"That's due to excessive mental energy consumption."

As a science-oriented girl, Rio Futaba gathers information and builds models on player forums, ultimately concluding that strengthening physical attributes is the most cost-effective in the early stages—when encountering danger, you don't necessarily have to outrun monsters; outrunning other players is just as good.

Therefore, the main attributes that Futaba strengthens are stamina and agility, while mental strength is not strengthened at all.
