The Infinite Powerhouse Mixed in with Sakura Dormitory

"Chihiro-sensei, Shiina drew all night and just fell asleep. She won't be going to school today." Jiang Jing, who was coming downstairs, looked at Chihiro Chigoro, who was about to leave.

"I understand." Chihiro Sengoku nodded, showing no surprise.

"Hey, junior, have you grown taller?"

Just then, Misaki Kamiigusa, who was also about to leave, exclaimed in surprise, then turned back and circled around Eijing before looking at him excitedly.

"Hey junior, do you have some secret to growing taller quickly? I noticed you've grown two centimeters taller than you did a few days ago."

"Tell my senior that I also want to grow taller."

"How did you know so precisely that I grew two centimeters taller? Besides, even if I did grow taller, it's just because I've reached puberty. What secret do you have?"

Jiang Jing reached out and pushed away Misaki Ueiso, who was almost touching his face, and said irritably.

"Puberty... Sigh, I thought you had some way to grow taller quickly, junior." Misaki Kamiigusa was immediately disappointed.

Jiang Jing had already noticed the changes in his body. Under the modification of his Kryptonian bloodline, not only did his height increase from 1.67 meters to 1.69 meters, but his face also underwent subtle changes.

His delicate features became more defined, and his youthful face gained a touch of mature masculinity. Furthermore, because his body constantly absorbed solar energy, it radiated a subtle yet clean and pure aura of sunlight.

Moreover, this change will continue as the bloodline is modified; it is an evolutionary instinct of life.

Two updates a day, please remember to vote for me! ^-^

Chapter 14 Rias Gremory

Today in class, Jiang Jing didn't just lie down on the desk and sleep. Instead, he was reading a book about comics called "Character Design and Coloring Techniques in Anime".

As for the purpose, it was, of course, to copy the EVA manga and make a lot of money.

Although he had already written the first volume of Dragon and Tiger last night and submitted it for publication, and believed that his revised version of Dragon and Tiger, adapted to the current social environment, would definitely be approved and published.

However, due to limitations in subject matter and content, even if Toradora! were adapted into an anime, it could not compare to the globally popular EVA. In particular, the various merchandise and copyrights associated with EVA would allow Jiang Jing to no longer worry about money.

Moreover, it's very easy to do, making it perfect for those who just want to live a quiet life.

In one class period, Jiang Jing, with his strong mental fortitude, read through the book, which was about an inch thick, as if it were a computer scan, and gained a clear understanding of the precautions for drawing comics.

Jiang Jing is now very confident that with his mastery of ink painting skills as a level nine master, he can perfectly replicate the EVA manga version from his memory, and even draw it more exquisitely.

After all, Yoshiyuki Sadamoto, who drew EVA, didn't have the skills of a level nine ink painting artist. In Jiang Jing's memory, the visual expression of the manga version of EVA was only average, and his drawing skills were not as good as those of Mashiro Shiina.

"Kanda, do you want to join a club this year? How about our swimming club? There are lots of pretty girls there."

During the break between classes, just as Jiang Jing put down his book, Miyahara Daichi walked over from behind and asked with great interest.

"Clubs? No interest." Jiang Jing shook his head.

Miyahara had anticipated Jiang Jing's reaction and nodded, "I see. Kanda, you didn't know that there were a lot of transfer students at the school this year, did you? Let me tell you."

As he spoke, Miyahara Daichi leaned close to Jiang Jing's ear mysteriously and said, "Among those transfer students, there are three great beauties, especially Rias Gremory, the head of the Mysterious Research Club, who is even prettier than your Shiina classmate."

"Mysterious Research Club? I've never heard of this club at school before." Jiang Jing looked at the mysterious Miyahara Daichi with some suspicion.

"Hehe... The Mysterious Research Club was only established yesterday. These past two days, you've either been sleeping or with your Shiina classmate, so of course you don't know."

"However, the requirements for joining the Mysterious Research Department are very high. In the past two days, many students have applied to join but none of them have been approved. Otherwise, I would have already transferred to another department."

"What do you mean by Kanda's Shiina-kun? Miyahara, don't talk nonsense. It will cause trouble for Kanda-kun." Just then, Aoyama Nanami turned around and interrupted Miyahara's long-winded speech with a somewhat displeased expression.

"It's not just talk. Everyone has seen Kanda and Shiina going to school together and walking home together these past few days." For some reason, Miyahara Daichi seemed a little excited after Aoyama Nanami spoke.

As he spoke, Miyahara Daichi looked at Jiang Jing seriously, wanting him to help prove it, "Kanda, tell Aoyama-kun, are you dating Shiina-kun from art class?"

Upon hearing this, Aoyama Nanami's gaze towards Jiang Jing immediately revealed a hint of tension.

"Uh... why would you think I'm dating Shiina?" Jiang Jing was slightly taken aback, then shook his head in denial.

"We go to school together because we all live in Sakura-sou, and Shiina-san is a little less knowledgeable about life and often gets lost, so Chihiro-sensei asked me to take care of her after school."

Although Jiang Jing and Shiina Mashiro appear closer than typical couples in some ways, this is simply because Shiina Mashiro needs someone to take care of her.

Unless Shiina Mashiro develops real feelings for him, his attitude towards her will not change. Right now, he only treats Shiina Mashiro as a pet to take care of.

His personality has always been such that he will do what he promises and do it well, provided that it doesn't have any negative impact on him.

"Isn't that right? What a pity. I thought you, Kanda, had already made your move and won over Shiina, the famous transfer student from Sumitomo High School." Miyahara Daichi said regretfully.

Aoyama Nanami breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Just then, the school bell rang outside, interrupting the two who were about to speak.

In the afternoon, Jiang Jing went to the rooftop to sunbathe as usual, closing his eyes to expend his mental energy, condensing various special genetic law information chains and fusing them with Kryptonian genes to deduce and improve the second stage of Kryptonian bloodline.

The April sun already carried the intense heat of summer. Under its rays, Jiang Jing's body underwent a transformation, and his cells, which were different from those of ordinary people and emitted a faint golden hue, were evolving wildly.

As the Kryptonian bloodline transformation deepened, on the third day alone, Jiang Jing's seemingly frail high school student body concealed terrifying abilities comparable to ten times that of an ordinary person.

With a strength exceeding a thousand kilograms, they have already begun to enter the first tier of extraordinary life forms, and are still transforming and improving at an astonishing rate. This is the terror of the Kryptonian bloodline.

It is important to know that even the most primitive Kryptonians have bodies as hard as steel, can fly at several times the speed of sound, and possess tens of thousands of tons of strength. As they are exposed to the sun for longer periods of time, they will rapidly evolve into cosmic-level life forms.

At 3:30, when the school bell rang, Jiang Jing slightly opened his tired eyes and pondered, "It still doesn't work. Maybe my thinking is wrong."

Jiang Jing spent the afternoon trying dozens more divine bloodlines and found that no matter how much he split and simplified them, they could not be integrated with the Kryptonian primary genetic information chain.

"I don't think it's necessary to add bloodlines of the same rank. We could try splitting the bloodline abilities of the extraordinary rank and integrating them into the Kryptonian genetic chain to evolve and grow together."

"Never mind, I'll try again tomorrow." Shaking his head, Jiang Jing went downstairs, returned to the classroom, picked up his backpack, and walked out of the building toward the school gates.

Jiang Jing, carrying a backpack, walked alone out of the school, looking rather lonely, out of place with the football club and baseball bats running around and shouting all around him.

On the rooftop of the tallest building in the university, the seven-story No. 3 teaching building, a stunningly beautiful girl with a tall, voluptuous figure and long, flowing bright red hair quietly looked down at the playground, her gaze seemingly lingering on Jiang Jing as he left.

"Minister, how come we suddenly transferred from Komao High School to this school?" A beautiful girl with knee-length black hair and a single ponytail suddenly appeared behind the red-haired girl, looking at the red-haired girl with some doubt.

"Because this is that person's territory, if I come here to study, he will definitely have to be careful about what he wants to do. Right now, I just want to study hard and don't want to deal with the underworld for the time being."

Rias said calmly, "By the way, Akeno, how's the investigation I asked you to do coming along?"

“I have already investigated. There are no cultivators, special creatures, or awakened individuals in this school. It is just an ordinary college.”

“However, that boy seems to be awakening; there’s a faint, luminous power gathering around him. Captain, should we make contact?” Akeno Himejima looked at Rias.

After a brief silence, once Jiang Jing's figure disappeared through the school gate, Rias spoke softly, "You noticed him too?"

"But there's no rush. Although awakened beings are rare among humans and have a high potential to transform into demons, not just anyone is qualified to be my servant."

"And since we've decided to come to the human world to study, let's be good students and not stand out too much and cause trouble."

Second update complete.

Chapter 15 The light-toned girl

After leaving the school, Jiang Jing did not return to Sakura Dormitory, but instead took a bus to the city's commercial street to buy some tools and materials for drawing comics.

For example, special types of pencils, manuscript paper, rulers, and ink.

However, after buying a pack of several hundred sheets of manuscript paper and pencils, Jiang Jing was shocked to discover a fact that left him speechless: he was out of money.

Standing by the roadside, Jiang Jing, carrying bags of various sizes, looked at his empty wallet with only a few coins left and couldn't help but sigh softly: "It's a little embarrassing that I'm worried about money."

A once mighty demon god who roamed countless worlds, bringing disaster and destruction to all living beings, is now living in poverty because of money problems...

Looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, Jiang Jing felt a pang of sadness rising in his heart.

However, it seems that Jiang Jing is not the only one troubled by money. Just then, four pretty and cute high school girls walked past him.

"Yui, do we really have to buy that guitar? It costs 250,000 yen." The long-haired black girl, Akiyama Mio, who was walking on the left among the four, silently calculated.

"Yeah, I'm still far from enough. I thought I could borrow 50,000 yen from my mom to buy a good guitar." Hirasawa Yui, with her short brown hair in the middle, looked rather listless.

With her hands in her pockets, the short-haired girl, Ritsu Tainaka, who looked like a man, didn't care and waved her hand casually: "Oh, it's okay, let's work together to help Yui buy that guitar, consider it a club activity."

“Hmm… I agree with Ritsu’s suggestion. Working part-time… sounds so interesting…” Kotobuki Tsumugi, with her light golden hair slightly curled and elegant demeanor, seemed very interested in working. She clasped her hands together and looked at her companion with shining eyes.

"Ah, is this a good idea, everyone..." Hirasawa Yui was somewhat tempted.

"I agree..."

I agree.

"Let's all cheer each other on, yay!"

Watching the four lively girls skipping and hopping by, Jiang Jing sighed with a touch of melancholy on his still childlike face: "Is this the feeling of youth? Carefree and enviable. It's a pity I'm already old."

"Old?" Passersby looked at the young man, who was pretending to be old and lamenting the passing of time, with strange expressions.

Jiang Jing, who didn't have enough money, had no choice but to return home. When he got back to Sakura Manor, it was already six o'clock in the afternoon. As soon as he entered, he saw Mitaka Jin, who was on duty that day, busy behind the kitchen counter.

"Hey... Kanda's back! You went shopping with your female classmates, huh?" Mitaka Jin looked at the bags in Jiang Jing's hands with a teasing expression.

Jiang Jing shrugged: "Senior, please don't make fun of me. I don't have your charm. You're surrounded by beautiful women every day. These are just paintbrushes and comic book manuscripts."

"Huh, you're really going to draw comics?" Mitaka Jin paused in his hand, which was stirring miso soup, and looked up at Jiang Jing in surprise.

"Of course, I'm not kidding. I wrote a novel last night and submitted it for publication. Today I bought a pen and paper to try and see if I have any talent for comics."

“…” Mitaka Jin, who had just been somewhat surprised and thought Jiang Jing really intended to become a cartoonist, chuckled and shook his head.

He wrote a novel in one night and submitted it directly without checking or revising it. It was all child's play. In his opinion, Jiang Jing was just playing around and would soon find out how difficult it was to write light novels or comics, and then he would give up.

Seeing this, Jiang Jing smiled and didn't bring up the topic again: "Then you go ahead with your work, senior. I'll go back to my room first."

Meow……

As soon as Jiang Jing returned to the room, Xiao Guang, the white cat sleeping on the bed, yawned and looked at him with a dependent meow.

After putting down and tidying up his things, he played with the cats for a while, then went outside to go upstairs to see Shiina Mashiro.

"Shiina, I'm coming in." Standing outside the door, Jiang Jing knocked twice on the door.

"Come in, Sorata."

"What is this...?" Jiang Jing was taken aback as he entered the room.

He tidied up the house in the morning, but now it's a mess again. Original comic manuscripts are scattered everywhere—on the bed, on the floor, and some were even only half-finished before being thrown on the floor.

Shiina Mashiro was wearing only a nightgown and pink panties, revealing her long, white legs, and was engrossed in drawing a manga while lying on the table.

After Jiang Jing entered the house, Shiina Mashiro suddenly stopped what she was doing, looked up at him quietly, and said, "Sorata, do my comics look boring?"

Jiang Jing was taken aback: "...Why would you ask that?"

"Ayano said my manga is boring." Shiina Mashiro looked at Jiang Jing with a blank expression in her calm eyes.

After sleeping until noon, Shiina Mashiro showed her the completed manga volume to her editor, who then told her that the story was uninteresting and would definitely not be published.
