"What is wrong with you. You have been acting weird all day long." Rati said as she put a damp cloth around the forehead of her damsel of a brother
"Weird, me? I have not done anything weird today," Laone thought that his sister was on to him so he tried to sneak his way out of being caught. He continued staring at the roof waiting for his sister to press on and she did.
"You screamed your head off at three in the morning, did all your chores none stop and without complaining one bit. While doing your laundry you suddenly froze and passed out for a whole hour." She watched her brother try and make a cute face, she knew that this was his go-to move to avoid explaining himself. This time it was not going to work for he had nowhere to run to, so she just waited for his answer.
"Would you believe me if I said I am going through puberty?" He turned to look at her, "of cause not. Do you think that I am that dumb?"
"No like seriously, it is a thing that happens to male omegas and you wouldn't know about it. Because you are a girl and an alpha." [Laone]
"I have male omega friends and they have never said that they suddenly scream out of nowhere as well as fainting." [Rati]
"For the first time in your life you actually said something dumb. I screamed because of a bad dream and I overworked myself to forget said nightmare which led to me fainting because omegas are weaker than alphas." After his rant, Laone felt pretty good about himself. That is until he looked over to his sister who was displeased about his whole explanation.
"Bastard, do you think you can fool me? What you are saying now is completely irrelevant to what you tried to shove down my throat before. Which means that you have something to hide now spit it out." [Rati]
"I refuse." Knowing that arguing his innocence longer would get him exposed Laone chose to lead his sister on a wild goose chase.
"Are you trying to get on my nerves you skinny little pervert, spit it out what are you hiding from your sister?" Oratile picked her brother up by his ear and talked into it.
She was pushed back into her chair by her brother fighting for his freedom, Laone sat up and glared at his sister. "Skinny? Really, need I remind you how many people are out there working out to get a body like yours truly."
"You make wanna laugh out loud for once, the ideal figure people are trying to achieve is a bit bigger than yours. That is actually due to society still wanting to believe that male omegas do not exist." A temporary silence joined the two in the room while Laone was still looking for ways to respond to his sister.
"Are you going to say something, omega?" Oratile mockingly said to her brother, she was pretty confident that she had won the argument. "I still think that I am quite attractive and that I will go off to marry a rich alpha lady who would shower me with gifts and stuff." Laone folded his arms and pouted at his little sister.
"Are you even listening to yourself, besides if you are such a catch why haven't you dated anyone yet? Surely if you are as precious as you speak there should be girls who had taken a fancy into you and approached you for your hand."
"Bastard girl! The only reason I am single is that my sister is a tyrant who completely swallowed me under her shadow."
"Further cementing your worthlessness, how does one lose to their younger sister? Aren't you a man?"
"Woman are you really trying to see me lose my marbles, I am but a delicate creation known as an omega and I am not a brute such as you, you brutes."
"Wow you just said brutes are brutes, well congratulations for figuring that out Einstein you truly deserve a hand. Wonderful how about a round of applause?" Oratile's excitement could only be felt through the sound of her heartbeat that her brother can now hear for some reason. As for her face and voice they remained unchanged, her brother noticing that his senses were growing again decided to kick her out of his room.
"That's it! I have put up with you long enough leave." Oratile did not put up a fight and instead left peacefully when she reached the door though she slowed down earning her a pillow to the back. "I said get out!"
She made sure to slam the door as hard as she can on her way out, "holy shit you better not be slamming something I paid for in this house!" Their mother screamed from downstairs.
Alone in his room finally, Laone takes his phone which his mother left there and revisited the app. He went to the screen that allows him to buff up his body with gang energy, he then chose the head option [HEAD+>>]. Within this option there were a bunch of other sub-options.
[EYES+>>]
[NOSE+>>]
[MOUTH+>>]
[EARS+>>]
[BRAIN+>>]
Judging by the way the sub-options were laid out, Laone guessed that they also had their own babies. Since he was not at all that good in biology, he did not open any of them. Collectively he decided to invest 50% of his gained gang energy (GGE) on boosting his brainpower. In the same manner, he put most of his exp in his intelligence.
The rest of the GGE and exp were distributed as evenly as he could think out, his stats did not skyrocket out of the room after he did this though. This is where things got a bit trickier, Laone noticed that whenever he received a quest and completed it all the other stats except for the exp were awarded in percentages. After pouring most of his exp in his intelligence, the intelligence stat did not even grow by a percent.
This meant that the rapid growth he got earlier was from completing a quest way beyond him. After getting that out of the way, Laone switched to battle mode and his phone screen changed into a dial pad. He switched back and so did his phone, all he was doing was trial and error to confirm his experience during the night of the attack.
Also during the same attack Laone went into the kitchen to get a knife and it disappeared from his hand. While exploring the basic functions of the systems he discovered that there was an inventory where the knife had found refuge. He wanted to check if he could store food inside and still keep it fresh and so he sliced an apple in half and stored it there.
The apple came out looking as fresh as it did when it was put in, what he was wondering now was if he could put a living being inside. There were no living creatures around him so he decided to delay that experiment. What followed next was his senses, he wanted to know why he had crazy senses of sight, smell, and pretty much the rest.
There were no invested points on either one of his senses and until now he had not given his other body parts GGE. He thought and thought about what could have possibly brought about these changes. After sitting on the same question for a few minutes Laone decided to take his experiments elsewhere.
He changed into some pe shorts, a sports jacket, and a shirt with matching sneakers to complete the outfit.
"And where do you think you are going dressed like that?" [Mother]
"Um, mom I thought, that... Maybe I could ah..." [Laone]
"Well you thought wrong now come and help me set up for lunch." [Mother]
"But Rati is not doing anything why can't you ask her to do it?" [Laone]
"And just what are you doing my son, what am I keeping you from?" Laone failed to answer his mother's question, "exactly nothing. Now come on and help me." He sighed in disappointment but still did as he was told to.
While cleaning up after lunch Laone finally asked his mother if he could go out.
"Where are you going?" His mother asked again, this time not looking at him.
"I am going out for a jog."
"You would risk your life for a jog, since when did you jog anyway?" She still paid no attention to her son's nervous face.
"Since my sister said I was out of shape, and besides don't I already risk my life by going to school every day?"
"Last time I checked you had a private cab pick you up from school every day. Also boy don't talk to me like we are age mates, your sister said you are out of shape? I am the one who feeds you aren't I, do you think that if you out of shape I would have done something about it?"
Laone gave up, he had more ways to try and convince his mother but did not voice them out. He put the plates down and returned to his room.
"Would it be okay if he wears something longer and goes with me?"
