The Paradise of Reincarnation Begins with Eriri

Eriri keenly noticed the question mark raised by her senior:

"What's with the question mark? Has some fat woman not yet learned the Substitute Technique?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "......"

Not only had I not 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 use, it takes a whole day to repair itself... Perhaps he hasn't had a chance to tell Kasumigaoka-senpai yet."

"Too late?"

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

"It's just a single sentence, yet they've kept it a secret until now, and it seems like everyone has studied 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.

"My animal instincts haven't been activated...it must be my imagination."

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."

"..."

"Done."

Kiyono 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 for "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 dimming and disappearing, and large patches of rust appeared on the surface, giving it the appearance of having burned out.

"Add entry."

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

A glimmer of light flashed by.

The scroll appears unchanged, but after activating the Eye of Observation, a completely 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."

"It doesn't matter whether it's in the first or last order."

Kiyono Makoto casually said, "You learn it first, and you can try it out to see if you can combine it with my water magic."

Rio Futaba pursed her pink lips upon hearing this:

"......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 rapidly 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's 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 possess?"

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. As long as you have enough mental energy, it can last indefinitely."

Rio Futaba was clearly quite satisfied. "Besides, the Frost Shield can also be controlled by thought; it's not just 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. With the increase in his water magic skill level, coupled with the [BOSS Template] attribute, the amount of water and the casting speed were significantly improved.

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

"...It seems 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, its area expanding until it transformed into a giant frost shield radiating cold air, steadily covering most of her body.

"Sure enough, bigger is better."

Kiyono Makoto nodded in satisfaction.

"I feel like we 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 is unimportant; being handsome is something that lasts a lifetime.

Moreover, the frost shield, which could only defend in one direction, has been transformed into an all-around, undefended frost armor, a significant improvement. Clearly, ice magic and water magic do have a synergistic effect, where one plus one equals more than two.

"Well......"

His cool demeanor lasted less than three seconds before a low, frustrated groan suddenly escaped his lips.

Click, click.

Losing control of his mental energy, the Frost Armor shattered instantly, turning into countless ice crystals and disappearing without a trace.

"What's wrong?"

Kiyono Makoto caught the swaying girl in his arms.

"My 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 depletion."

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, Futaba's main enhanced attributes are stamina and agility, while her mental strength is not enhanced at all.

At this moment, the water magic and ice magic worked together, increasing their power but also increasing their consumption. Rio Futaba then tried to create ice armor, and her mental energy was being drained like water... no, it should be described as a sudden burst of urine.

An ordinary person's mental attributes simply cannot withstand such a drain. Therefore, in less than a minute, Shuangye's mental energy was completely exhausted, and she experienced symptoms such as a splitting headache, blurred vision, and nausea.

"I'll carry you to the sofa to rest for a while."

Seeing that Futaba could barely stand, Kiyono Makoto naturally wouldn't leave like that. He quickly kicked off his shoes, picked up Futaba, and carried her back to the living room.

"Excessive mental energy consumption is extremely uncomfortable, unlike hunger, which can be relieved simply by eating."

Looking down at the pale-faced girl with glasses, Kiyono Makoto softly suggested:

"So, should we test the maximum power mana replenishment effect?"

Rio Futaba's pretty face was pale. Her head was throbbing, and she was too weak to think about how to replenish her mana at maximum power. She simply clutched Kiyono Makoto's sleeve tightly, her voice weak:

"Please, Kiyono-kun..."

"Okay, leave it to me."

Kiyono Makoto turned around and sat on the sofa, reached out and pulled the girl with glasses onto his lap, then hugged her tightly.

Futaba is petite, standing less than 1.6 meters tall. Although she is well-developed, she still looks tiny when held in someone's arms.

"...Huh?!"

Rio Futaba's body suddenly stiffened, her eyes widening in disbelief.

(Maximum power mana replenishment...it turns out it's a hug?!)

(But... my posture is terrible...)

(Should we get up?)

(Never mind... Kiyono was just trying to help out of kindness...)

Rio Futaba's mind was still hesitant when her body went limp, her face burying itself in Makoto Kiyono's chest.

"Well......"

Rio Futaba took a tense breath, the scent of camellia laundry detergent and sunshine filling her nostrils.

"The scent of Kiyono-kun..."

Smelling the scent on Kiyono Makoto, Futaba Rio, who is usually a bit of a germaphobe, didn't find it unpleasant at all; in fact, she found it quite pleasant.

(Just for a little while... I'll get up as soon as I feel better...)

Rio Futaba's face flushed, and she nervously closed her eyes.

at the same time.

Kiyono Makoto's thoughts were much simpler; he was seriously studying the character panel.

"Mental energy recovery speed is a bit slow, not reaching the additional 200% limit..."

"Do I have to take off my clothes and apply it?"

"Or perhaps, besides hugging, we need a more intimate way to touch each other?"

"The only way to be more intimate than a hug... is a kiss, right?"

Kiyono Makoto lowered his head and looked at the bespectacled girl nestled in his arms, her eyes closed and her face flushed. He quickly dismissed the idea of ​​asking for trouble.
