He silently calculated the numbers in his bank account and felt a moment of peace.
Through renting boyfriends and earning income from part-time jobs, Miyazawa Itsuki has amassed a fortune far exceeding that of most of his peers.
Although this wealth is nothing in the grand scheme of Tokyo.
But this is the limit he can currently achieve.
Looking back to a year ago, when he and Shiori had just moved to Tokyo.
There was no one to rely on, and no skill to depend on.
In a vast city like Tokyo, it would undoubtedly be very difficult for a brother and sister who are not yet adults to survive.
He is frugal with his daily food, clothing, and other necessities.
They live in the worst low-rent housing, wear the oldest clothes, eat the cheapest food, or simply don't eat at all.
But when it comes to everything concerning Shiori, including her medical expenses, this is the only thing that cannot be compromised.
He wanted to give Shiori the best treatment, which was also the purpose of his trip to Tokyo.
The parents passed away unexpectedly, leaving behind only a small inheritance.
The inheritance might allow them to spend their school years in peace, but it still puts them somewhat insecure about Shiori's subsequent treatment.
Although he was working hard.
However, the part-time jobs that a high school student who is not yet an adult can access and the wages they receive are quite limited.
That meager salary was barely enough for the siblings' basic expenses in Tokyo, at most slowing down the rate at which their savings would run out.
At that time, Miyazawa Itsuki was almost ready to give up his studies and formally enter society.
A "benefactor" introduced him to the industry of "renting a boyfriend".
Miyazawa Itsuki still remembers the man's noisy and boisterous manner.
"What? If you look like that and are short of money, you should have started this business a long time ago!"
"Idiot, this is not a gigolo service! I still have some self-respect, okay? How could I possibly send my underage nephew to be a gigolo!"
Thinking of this, Miyazawa Itsuki couldn't help but smile.
That man, although he was unreliable most of the time.
Despite bearing the title of "uncle," he is unable to shoulder any of the responsibilities of an elder.
He only knows how to hang out with women and scam them out of drinks, and sometimes he even shamelessly asks them for money for the drinks.
However, Miyazawa Itsuki was extremely grateful to him for leading her into the rental boyfriend industry.
Miyazawa Itsuki didn't know how to please women, so he taught him step by step.
Not knowing how to dress, he sought help from professional women.
Thanks to her hard work and a bit of good looks, Miyazawa Itsuki quickly rose to fame in the rental boyfriend business.
The hourly wage has also increased from a minimum of 5000 yen to 7000 yen.
With this job, Miyazawa not only covered Shiori's medical expenses on his own, but also had some savings.
My uncle said that in the vast city of Tokyo, everyone makes a living by selling their strengths.
Knowing how to please girls can be considered a strength.
Miyazawa Itsuki looked at himself in the reflection of the advertising glass.
He wore a well-matched designer outfit, had his hair meticulously styled, and had a face that often made people mistake him for a celebrity.
Although I don't know how much longer I can stay in this industry.
Perhaps we can continue until my sister's treatment is finished?
However, it is still necessary to plan ahead and make contingency plans for an uncertain future.
I may get this job by chance, and I may lose it by chance as well.
Miyazawa Itsuki must ensure that even without this income, he will still be able to support Shiori's future.
Therefore, he needs another skill.
Miyazawa Itsuki's pupils began to dilate.
Instead of turning on his phone, he looked at the panel that only he could see.
Name: Miyazawa Itsuki
Points Balance: 4250 + 570
[Skills: Shorthand LV2, Calligraphy LV2, Knife Skills LV2, Baking LV2, Driving LV2, Photography LV1, Basketball LV1, Appliance Repair LV1...]
The new skill 'Flower Arrangement LV1' has been added to the redemption list.
[Special abilities have been updated!]
Unlike usual, a line of text appeared above the special abilities section.
[Total number of dates with women: 50! Milestone achieved in 'Trial of the Casanova - Part Two']
[Reward: Special Ability "The Eye of the Casanova"]
[The Eye of the Casanova: After activating the ability, glimpse one of the target's random "true loves".]
Cooldown time: 24 hours
[Note: It's good to be able to see through a woman's heart, but sometimes, not knowing is happier.]
"Milestone reward...it's here again."
Miyazawa Itsuki muttered.
When he first started working as a rented boyfriend, he looked for books on female psychoanalysis at the Metropolitan Library.
Unexpectedly, he was hit on the head by a book titled "One Hundred Ways to Win Over a Rich Woman," which was placed high up and written in Chinese characters, and he fainted on the spot.
Upon waking, I discovered that I could now see a special panel.
This is the system that was often mentioned in novels from my previous life.
Miyazawa Itsuki has been living an ordinary life for sixteen years since he was reincarnated into this world.
I thought there wouldn't be any of those amazing, supernatural events like those in novels.
Mingming had already made up her mind to make her younger sister happy with her own hands.
But now that we have this cheat code, it's impossible not to make good use of it; this is an opportunity to change our destiny.
The core content of the panel is actually very simple.
Dating beautiful women.
The amount a woman spends on a date is converted into points at a ratio of 1 to 100 yen.
Points can be redeemed for items and various class skills in the weekly refreshed shop.
After a date, a skill or item will be randomly selected based on the characteristics of the date and added to the weekly exchange pool.
In addition, there is a rare special reward.
--milestone.
It's essentially similar to an achievement system in a game, but the difference is that the panel doesn't explicitly show the conditions and rewards for various milestones.
It was only after he inadvertently met the conditions that he suddenly realized there was such a design.
At that time, Miyazawa had just said goodbye to his tenth client in his career.
Upon opening the panel, I discovered that I had inexplicably achieved the so-called [Milestone: Trial of the Casanova - Part 1]
He also gained his first special ability as a result:
【A machete is useless against me!】
[Effect: Any physical damage inflicted on you by someone of the opposite sex who harbors romantic feelings for you will be considered null and void]
[Note: I love you, but I'll kill you, just kidding!]
When Miyazawa Itsuki first saw this special ability, his expression was quite subtle.
If he weren't a rented boyfriend, triggering this milestone might actually be a bit of a hassle.
Go on romantic dates with ten different women.
It must also be done without triggering any breakup behavior.
Anyone capable of doing something like this should probably be prepared to be stabbed to death.
Fortunately, Miyazawa Itsuki has a special profession, so he can be said to have exploited a loophole in the interface.
His relationships with his clients were purely financial.
There is no romantic entanglement between them.
Therefore, this ability will most likely never be of any use.
However, the "Love Saint's Eye" is different.
—It can reveal information about the other person's inner preferences.
For a profession like renting a boyfriend, which relies on understanding the client's mindset, this skill is nothing short of amazing.
Shared interests are always the best way to open up someone's heart.
Two complete strangers unexpectedly share a compatible hobby; despite never having met, they are kindred spirits.
It's like a match made in heaven.
People always fantasize about things as romantic as fate.
In this situation, people's rationality becomes more relaxed, and they are more likely to impulsively consume more.
Miyazawa looked around. It was rush hour, and the crowds were endless.
Considering the cooldown time, Miyazawa Itsuki abandoned the idea of experiencing the effects now.
Let's try it in tomorrow's orders then.
Miyazawa closed the panel and began his return journey.
He suddenly felt a little excited about tomorrow's date.
Chapter 3 Naomi Asahina
The next day, Shibuya
Miyazawa Itsuki set off for the meeting place thirty minutes before the agreed time.
The meeting place he arranged with his client was at an intersection in front of a large shopping mall.
Last night, after receiving the order, Miyazawa Itsuki added the client's LINE account using his work account.
The other party gave their surname "Asahi" and stated that they would be wearing a striking lemon-yellow jacket.
"Ms. Asahi... she must be a young girl."
Miyazawa Itsuki pondered.
Judging from the LINE cartoon cat avatar, the wording in the conversation, and the stickers that are usually attached at the end of the communication, the customer is not very old.
Thinking back, in the past six months of my career, all the clients I've served have been young and beautiful girls.
Is it true that Tokyoites are just better at dressing up?
But judging from my experience in my hometown of Kyoto, the average appearance of people in this world is probably just higher.
Handsome men and beautiful women, capable of leading roles in idol groups in their previous lives, are a common sight on the streets.
Even at the high school that Miyazawa Itsuki attended, there were quite a few people with excellent physical appearances.
There are even rumors that the students include active models, star athletes, and popular video creators.
Some people have called their class the luckiest since the school was founded, because there are several students with "outstanding" looks.
As for Miyazawa Itsuki, he didn't have a strong sense of whether his own features were beautiful or ugly.
At least in other people's eyes, I shouldn't be too bad.
