After sending the personal doctor and butler away, Yanagi layed down on the bed for a while, allowing his body to rest.
To his surprise, his [Gravity Fruit] proficiency had increased to 5.2%.
Furthermore, he felt his injuries had significantly eased. Was this due to some self-administered healing effect, or had his injury recovery ability simply become stronger? He shrugged off the question, deciding it didn't matter.
"I'll continue practicing later!" he declared with renewed determination.
The following week, he took a week off from school, citing his injury as the reason. He immersed himself in the [Practice Room] every day, his sole focus being to adapt to 5 times gravity within a week.
During this period, Yanagi repeatedly instructed the housekeeper and personal doctor to keep his injury a secret from Momo.
Witnessing Yanagi's relentless training, the butler and doctor couldn't help but be reminded of their own youthful days, filled with similar dedication and ambition.
As they watched Yanagi push his limits, they couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration for his unwavering spirit.
Who hasn't had dreams in their youth? Both the housekeeper and the doctor nodded in agreement, their memories filled with the aspirations of their own younger selves.
Throughout the week, Yanagi endured countless comas and countless muscle tears, but the struggle was ultimately worth it.
On Saturday morning, he finally triumphed over his own limitations. Under the crushing weight of 5 times gravity, he could now walk freely.
His [Gravity Fruit] proficiency had increased to 7%. While his upper limit of controlling gravity remained at 5 times, the range of his gravity field had expanded from 3 meters to 5 meters.
Not only that, Yanagi's Force, speed, and Reaction had undergone a qualitative leap.
[Host]: Akane Yanagi
[Force]: 38 [Ordinary people are 10].
[Speed]: 50 [10 for ordinary people].
[Reaction]: 48 [Normal people are 10].
[Skills]:
The system displayed his improved stats, reflecting the tangible results of his relentless training. He had become stronger, faster, and more agile. His journey towards becoming a true hero had just begun.
1. Kali Arnis
Among his enhanced attributes, Akane Yanagi's speed was particularly impressive, exceeding that of ordinary people by five times. After a professional assessment by the butler, his speed was found to be comparable to that of a cheetah. His strength had also increased to 3.8 times that of ordinary people, equivalent to roughly 400 pounds of pure muscle power.
Unbeknownst to him, his injury recovery ability was steadily becoming more potent.
Despite his newfound freedom of movement within the 5x gravity field, he did not become complacent. Instead, he pushed himself even harder, embracing a more rigorous training regimen.
He began practicing [Kali Arnis] under the influence of the gravity field.
"Akane!"
"Akane!"
The sound of his name echoed through the practice room, a testament to the relentless dedication he had committed to his new path.
Just then, a familiar voice drifted in from outside the practice room.
"What's wrong?" He quickly deactivated the [Gravity Field].
"My weekend cram school is off today, so come shopping with me," Momo declared.
"That... I still want to..." Yanagi, consumed by his newfound martial prowess, had no intention of doing anything else.
"Hmph, I don't care," Momo huffed, sensing his reluctance. She took a step forward, placing her arm around him, and began leading him towards the exit of the practice room.
Despite the clothes, He could still feel the maturity that emanated from momo.
Momo, sensing his hesitation, couldn't help but tease him with a playful smirk: "you little pervert."
"Momo, you're only a day older than me" he retorted instinctively, a man's pride bristling at the word 'little'.
"Hmph, so what!" Momo retorted, her nose crinkling in amusement.
"Okay, then I'll go change clothes first," He conceded with a defeated sigh.
"Go change it, the body stinks to death." She said with disgust
Although He can now walk normally under 5 times the gravity, it is also very difficult, and in ten minutes at most, the whole person will be salvaged from water.
"Hey, hey, huh? Then you just hugged me so tightly." He quipped playfully
"Bah... I wouldn't have to." Momo's face turned red, and he stomped his foot shyly, and said coquettishly
But at this time, Yanagi had long left.
"Hee-hee, my brother is still super handsome." She looked at him, who was dressed in casual clothes, and said with a smile
Although Yanagi is not yet 15 years old, he is 180cm tall, which is half a head taller than the 175cm, momo
"That is." He smiled noncommittally
Momo rolled his eyes and said
"Momo, isn't your quirk Creation? Do you need to spend money to go shopping at the mall?" He said, looking at her
"Hmph, what do you know!!, do you know what this is called promoting national consumption?" Momo said
Two hours later, Yanagi and Momo emerged from the bustling shopping mall. Yanagi carried a large bag and a smaller one in his hands, trailing behind her.
Instead of rushing home, they strolled along the road, their figures blending into the evening crowd. They were like a young couple, enjoying a leisurely walk on the overpass.
Beneath them, a large river flowed peacefully.
"Akane, the weather is so beautiful today," Momo remarked, her voice laced with innocent romance.
"It's alright," he replied, slightly bewildered by her sudden shift in mood.
Suddenly, a figure hurtled across the bridge, soaring through the air. It was a man with wings.
He swooped down, his descent swift and deadly.
In a horrifying instant, he ripped a middle-aged woman in half, just a hundred meters ahead of them.
"Ahhhhhh!"
"Villain!"
A wave of screams erupted from the horrified onlookers.
The peaceful evening had been shattered by a brutal act of violence. A sense of dread washed over Him, replacing his earlier bewilderment.
In this world, in addition to heroes, there are villains who have acquired a strong [quirks].
"It's him!"
"Vulture [Matsushita Yuri]!"
Yuri Matsushita, a dangerous villain with the quirk [Vulture].
He has a vulture's beak on his face, a pair of wings on his back, and his hands turn into sharp claws when using [Quirk].
