Eyes facing each other.

Kiyono Makoto instantly understood what Kato was thinking.

If she didn't ask a single question, people would definitely become suspicious... So it's obvious that Kato Megumi didn't want anyone to know the secret of the water magic treatment she received yesterday.

"Mom, what happened to that girl?"

A little girl passing by looked up curiously and asked her mother in a soft, sweet voice.

Are you feeling unwell?

The woman walking with her daughter, clearly an experienced woman, showed a subtle expression on her face and quickly took her daughter's little hand:

"Let's go quickly. That's an adult's secret. Children shouldn't ask too many questions."

"..."

A moment later.

Eriri finally recovered from the dopamine overload, biting her lower lip as she looked up, tears welling in her eyes, her voice even tinged with a weak sob:

"You idiot, you moron, Seino! What have you done?!"

Kiyono Makoto raised his hands, his face full of righteousness: "It's just ordinary treatment."

"ordinary?"

Eriri's small fangs gleamed coldly at the corners of her mouth. If looks could kill, Kiyono Makoto would already be riddled with holes by now.

You're saying that's just ordinary water magic?

This is clearly a technique that only appears in erotic doujinshi!

Kiyono Makoto coughed twice: "Although it comes with some strange effects... the fatigue and soreness are all wiped away, right?"

Eriri clenched her fists, glaring at them with embarrassment and anger: "Damn it! If I had known water magic was this bad, I wouldn't have let you help with the treatment!"

“That’s not how you say it,” Kiyono Makoto said matter-of-factly. “I’ve only mastered water magic for two days, and I’ve only tested it on my senior. I don’t know if it will have any additional effects on everyone.”

"Wait a minute." Eriri finally realized what was happening, quickly turning to look at her senior next to her, glaring at her with embarrassment and anger, "Kasumigaoka Utaha, you actually tricked me on purpose?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha crossed her arms and tilted her head to look over:

“I wasn’t that bad back then; it was just that someone was a nobody.”

"You're the one who's a nobody!"

"If you don't believe me, then let's have a contest."

"Huh?"

"Let's get our junior to help us heal and see who's the weakling who only lasts three seconds."

Yinglili: "..."

Again?

No.

That kind of thing is absolutely unacceptable; you'd definitely die.

Eriri gritted her teeth, used the bench as a support to get up, and ultimately fled in disarray.

"That's all for today, I'm going home!"

After Eriri ran away, Makoto Kiyono and his senior continued their running workout until 9 p.m.

"call……"

Kasumigaoka Utaha let out a soft breath, her forehead beaded with sweat, slightly out of breath, but her eyes were remarkably bright:

"Junior, my stamina has increased a little."

"Very good." Kiyono Makoto nodded slightly. "Keep it up."

"See you tomorrow."

Kasumigaoka Utaha crossed her arms, glanced at Kato Megumi not far away, and then turned and gracefully left.

"Kiyono-kun, have some drinks to rehydrate."

Just as Kiyono Makoto walked up to Kato Megumi, Masato handed him a bottle of drink:

"You shouldn't drink ice water immediately after strenuous exercise, so this is a room temperature beverage."

"Thank you."

Kiyono Makoto paused slightly, then thanked him softly:

“If Kato hadn’t said anything, I was really going to buy an iced Coke, so we’re even.”

"Huh?"

"If Kato-kun hadn't been here, I probably would be lying on the ground by now."

"Kiyono-kun is exaggerating; it's just a possibility."

"It's better to be safe than sorry. I never win the lottery, but I often encounter bad things."

"..."

After finishing half a bottle of beverage in one go, Kiyono Makoto and Kato Megumi walked home.

The journey was peaceful and quiet; no werewolves lurking in the bushes suddenly jumped out and attacked.

After arriving home, the next step was naturally to wash up.

"Kiyono-kun, why don't you go wash up first? You must have sweated a lot while running, a shower will make you feel better." Kato Megumi casually made the arrangement.

"Okay, I'll go take a shower first."

Kiyono Makoto didn't stand on ceremony and nodded in agreement.

After taking a shower, Kato Megumi handed her a cup of barley tea:

"Qingye-kun, drink tea."

Thank you.

Kiyono Makoto took the teacup and took a sip of tea when Kato Megumi quietly came out of the bathroom.

and many more.

When did you go to the bathroom?

I didn't find anything at all!

Seeing the clothes in the girl's hands, Kiyono Makoto quickly put down his teacup:

"Kato, I'll wash my own clothes."

"It's alright." Kato Megumi said calmly. "I'm the one who does the laundry at home. Kiyono-kun can just enjoy his tea."

Kiyono Makoto: "..."

You're staying at a boy's house, you should be nervous, shy, and reserved, why are you acting like the hostess?

"..."

The weekend passed by in a flash.

For the past two days, breakfast, lunch, and dinner have all been prepared by Megumi Kato.

Not only that, the house was also transformed without anyone noticing.

There wasn't much to say during the day. Neither Kiyono Makoto nor Kato Megumi were the type to enjoy going out. The two of them stayed quietly at home, playing games and watching TV together. Despite it being their first time living together, there was absolutely no awkwardness.

After waiting for it to get dark, the two of them went out together to go for a run with their senior and Eriri. However, after being burned once, Eriri refused to accept water magic treatment again.

"...Finally, I can draw cards again."

On the park track, seeing that the gashapon machine had cooled down, Kiyono Makoto suddenly stopped.

"Seven whole days felt like seven years."

Kiyono Makoto eagerly rubbed his hands together and decisively chose to draw a card.

The gashapon machine in my mind started humming, and countless dazzling abilities flashed by: time stop, invisibility, magnetic field manipulation, catching blades bare-handed, minotaur powerhouse, golden kidney warrior, iron legs that can walk on water...

puff!

A few seconds later.

A stream of light shot out from the gashapon machine and condensed into a dazzling ability card in Kiyono Makoto's mind.

Chapter 35 Ability: Entry Stealing!

"A dazzling ability card?"

Kiyono Makoto's heart suddenly raced.

I've never even won a "buy one get one free" promotion before, but now I've miraculously won a single draw and gained a superpower of the dazzling level?

Can a wish made by a book lover to remain single for thirty years really bring about a miracle?

Click.

The dazzling ability card quietly shattered, transforming into countless streams of light that entered Kiyono Makoto's soul.

A sudden realization dawned on me.

[Ability Card: Ability Stealer]

[Card Tier: Chroma]

[Note: Everything has its own set of attributes; you can plunder all attributes and add them to yourself or other items.]

[Note 1: After looting an item, the original item will be destroyed.]

[Note 2: Everything has its limits. The number of attributes an item can hold is directly proportional to its quality. Once an item reaches its capacity limit, no new attributes can be added.]

Thump thump.

Makoto Kiyono could clearly hear his heart pounding.

Although the introduction is simple, a little thought reveals that this ability is incredibly powerful and fully deserving of its dazzling quality.
