The Paradise of Reincarnation Begins with Eriri

The scroll unfurled, and ink-wash characters flew out, quickly disappearing into the senior student's body.

"...Hmm, I've learned it."

Kasumigaoka Utaha opened her eyes, her pretty face showing anticipation. She couldn't wait to try out the skill's effects, but thinking about the side effect of her clothes being torn off, she held back.

"This is an ice magic scroll."

Kiyono Makoto handed over the second skill scroll, "After using it, you can randomly obtain one ice spell. Futaba learned it last night and obtained the defensive Frost Shield spell."

"I haven't learned it yet; I'll leave the second opportunity to my senior."

Kasumigaoka Utaha looked up at him:

"The next skill scroll, the first one must be given to me."

"Isn't the senior being too greedy?"

"Well, girls are inherently greedy creatures."

The senior student said languidly, "Isn't the junior student the same?"

Makoto Kiyono: "......"

Although I really wanted to argue that I wasn't greedy, the words suddenly made me feel inexplicably guilty.

"I'm starting."

The senior student extended her right hand and unfurled the scroll once more.

Blue ice crystals flew out of the scroll, carrying a hint of cold air, and quietly entered the senior student's body.

"Well......"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyes brightened instantly, and her fingers traced through the air, conjuring a long, icy blue spear in a flash.

"The ice magic I possess is [Frost Spear]. It consumes mental energy to condense an ice spear, has a very fast firing rate, and once it hits a target, it can cause massive damage and also inflict a frost slowing effect."

Kiyono Makoto sincerely praised:

"Congratulations, senior! A standard attack spell."

The senior student's red eyes curved into beautiful crescent moons: "Considering the sacrifice you made, junior, I can give you another ten reward points."

Skills in the park are extremely expensive, making them unaffordable for ordinary players.

Kasumigaoka Utaha had only mastered the skill [Word Spirit] before, which was more of a support skill. After leaving Silent Hill, she only had two or three thousand points, which she had to use to enhance her attributes and buy items, so she had no money to buy new skills.

Having acquired two skills at once, I'm naturally in a great mood.

Kiyono Makoto immediately clasped his hands in a fist and palm salute: "Senior, you are so magnanimous."

"Let me finish."

Kasumigaoka Utaha tilted her head and looked over, a half-smile playing on her lips. "If we leave that good-for-nothing young lady until the end, we can give my junior an extra ten points as a reward."

Makoto Kiyono: "......"

So you're willing to disregard your own innocence just to toy with Eriri?

"...We'll talk about that later."

Seirin Kiyono changed the subject.

Twenty o'clock.

Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled and looked over.

"You're asking too much of me, senior..."

Thirty o'clock.

A real man will not bow down for five pecks of rice.

Fifty points.

Kasumigaoka Utaha crossed her arms, her tone cool and languid:

"If my junior still doesn't agree, then forget it."

Kiyono Makoto's expression turned serious:

"Deal. Eriri must be the last to learn ice magic."

With fifty reward points, plus the rewards I received before, I'm just one step away from getting my senior to scrub my back.

Such temptation is simply irresistible!

"Ha~ Men."

Kasumigaoka Utaha gave a soft hum, showing no sarcastic remarks, but rather concern for the skill she had just learned:

"Junior just said that your water magic and ice magic have a synergistic effect?"

"That's right."

Kiyono Makoto nodded, "Water magic can amplify ice magic... The room is too small, and we'll have to pay for any damages. Let's find a secluded spot on Hachijojima Island to test it out."

Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded slightly: "It's a deal."

Kiyono Makoto said softly:

"Senior, please browse the player forums more often. If you see any consumable skill scrolls, please let me know immediately so we can snag a bargain."

"I see."

Kasumigaoka Utaha seriously agreed.

The room was small and stuffy. After learning the skills, the senior student said goodbye and left, while Kiyono Makoto stayed behind to charge his phone, which only had five percent battery left, triggering his battery anxiety.

dong dong dong.

Just as I plugged it in to charge, there was a knock on the door.

"...Eiri Riri?"

Kiyono Makoto raised an eyebrow in surprise.

He thought his senior had left something behind, so he got up to open the door, only to find a fair-skinned blonde girl with twin ponytails standing outside.

"I just came back to use the restroom and happened to see that fat woman in black stockings coming out of your room."

Eriri crossed her arms, turned to the side, and explained in a nonchalant tone, "...The air is so fresh on the deck, what were you and that woman doing hiding in the room?"

Kiyono Makoto blinked, asking innocently:

"The senior did come by, but she left in less than a minute. She couldn't do anything, could she?"

Eriri blurted out:

"Stop lying! That woman was in your room for at least ten minutes!"

Makoto Kiyono: "......"

The air fell silent instantly.

Their eyes met.

Eriri's eyes darted around, and her pretty face quickly flushed red.

Kiyono Makoto slightly twitched the corner of his mouth:

"Are you stalking me...?"

"No tracking!"

"How did you know that my senior stayed in my room for ten minutes?"

"No way! That's just speculation!"

Kiyono Makoto smiled upon hearing this:

"Is Ms. Kashiwagi Eri jealous?"

"ha?!"

Eriri clenched her fists, her golden twin tails lashing out with a mixture of shyness and anger:

"Who would be jealous! You idiot, Kiyono, has your brain been ruined by galgames?! Everyone said I just happened to be passing by!"

"..."

Seeing that Tsukiri was furious, Seino Makoto decided to back down and opened the door for her.

"My senior and I were just discussing serious matters; we didn't do anything strange... You can see for yourself if you don't believe me."

"I don't care."

Despite saying she didn't care, Eriri quickly walked in, squinted, and scanned the room. Seeing that the blankets were neatly folded and there was no mess, she quickly felt relieved.

"So, what have you been doing secretly?"

"Learn ice magic."

Kiyono Makoto didn't hide anything and quickly told the truth.

"Huh?"

"There are special effects when learning magic scrolls, but there are too many tourists on the deck, so I can only go back to my room."

"What's wrong with him? He could have just said something, but he sneaked off from the deck..."

Eriri gave a disdainful snort and turned to leave.

However, at that moment, the ship was pushed by the wind and waves, and it rocked violently. Eriri lost her balance and fell directly onto Kiyono.

Bang.

The bed trembled slightly beneath them.

Eriri opened her eyes in a daze and found herself lying on the bed without knowing when. Kiyono Makoto was propping his hands on either side of her ears, looking down at her.

Their eyes met.

The air suddenly became quiet...

(Bonus chapter! This is the last bonus chapter of the month. [Anrang], this is my final ripple!)

Chapter 115 Was I the one who stole the fish?

Their eyes met.

The air suddenly became quiet.

The sounds of traffic, car horns, and tourists outside the window all faded away quietly, as if only Makoto Kiyono and Eriri remained in the world.

(Too, too close...!)

Eriri's heart suddenly raced.

The two were only a fist's width apart, and could even clearly feel each other's breathing.

If it were anyone else, Eriri would have already pushed them away with all her might.

But for some reason, he suddenly felt completely powerless. Although he instinctively placed his hands on Kiyono Makoto's chest, it was just the simplest form of support.

(Speaking of which, Kiyono's eyes are surprisingly beautiful...)

Eriri murmured softly to herself.

I've never observed this closely before, and now I realize that the clear fields are even more beautiful than I imagined.

With delicate and clean features, a well-defined face, a perfect jawline, and a slightly protruding Adam's apple... although she is usually a bit unkempt, doesn't pay much attention to her clothes, and doesn't take care of her hair, it has to be said that she is still very good-looking.

Especially his eyes. The light shone through his wispy hair, casting a perfect interplay of light and shadow on Kiyono Makoto's face. His eyes possessed both the clarity and brightness of a young man, as well as an inexplicable composure, making them appear strangely profound.

Not only that, the lip shape is also very beautiful, neither too harsh nor too thick...

(Wait, wait a minute!)

(What am I even thinking?!)

When Eriri realized what was happening, her heart skipped a beat, and then started beating even faster.

The girl's fair, jade-like face quickly flushed red, the blush spreading down her beautiful jawline and even staining her neck with a touch of crimson.

Thump, thump.
