Julian didn't offer his hand by accident. He really wanted to scan and discover information about Kim Yura. There was no way he wouldn't be interested in such a beautiful and magnetic woman; any man in his position would probably do the same.
But as soon as their hands touched, an avalanche of red screens abruptly and chaotically filled his vision.
*What the hell is happening?*
Julian cleared away all these warnings, finally finding Kim Yura's information window, though what appeared left him speechless. Kim Yura's data window didn't resemble any others he had seen. It was decorated with golden details and an almost divine glow.

╚════════⟦ END ⟧════════╝
Julian was completely stunned. The information he was reading was too overwhelming. Daughter of Destiny? Female Protagonist? A shiver ran down his spine, and an urge to let go of Yura's hand washed over him. However, her grip was firmly locked onto his, like a steel shackle. He couldn't free himself at all.
Suddenly, a new set of warnings appeared in his vision, even more disturbing this time:
⟦ Warning! The scanned target is overwhelmingly superior. ⟧
⟦ Alert! The target has detected the scan. ⟧
⟦ Alert! The user is being scanned. ⟧
Julian's heart started racing. *Damn it! I've gotten myself into a huge mess.*
"How unexpected… you have a system too? I thought I was the only one" Yura commented with a relaxed yet hard-to-read tone.
Julian tried to keep his composure, but his mind was in chaos. He knew that if Yura had bad intentions, he stood no chance at all against someone of her level.
"I… I'm just as surprised."
"Tell me, how does that 'Fortuna Parasyte System' of yours work?" Yura asked, her eyes boring into him as if analyzing every detail.
"Well, I got it recently, so I still have to figure out how it works. But basically, I can steal people's luck…" Julian didn't want to reveal too much, so he stuck to the basics.
"I believe you. You're barely at level 2" Yura nodded, her bright eyes studying him with renewed interest. "I assume you discovered my system after scanning me. That was pretty disrespectful, don't you think?"
Yura crossed her arms, waiting for an appropriate response from him.
"I'm really sorry, I didn't mean any harm. I just wanted to know more about you" Julian forced his most pleasant smile, though being unattractive, it didn't do much for him.
Yura scratched her head. "…Well, I can't hold a grudge. I also tend to scan people without permission… though I admit, it's not fun when it's done to you."
"So… now that you've caught me, what do you plan to do with me?" Julian mustered the courage to ask. It was hard for him to read Yura's intentions.
"We'll start your training session. Isn't that what you wanted?"
"You're really going to help me? I have a system. What happens if I grow strong enough to become a threat to you in the future?" Julian raised an eyebrow, skeptical.
"Oh, you won't" Yura's reply was immediate and firm.
"How can you be so sure? You can't be that naive."
"I'm not naive" Yura retorted. "You're already registered in my system as my 'student'. You can't betray me or harm me no matter how much you try. I invite you to give it a shot if you don't believe me."
"That's exactly what I'm going to do" Julian didn't waste a second and focused on the beautiful protagonist.
⟦ Activating ability 'Luck Parasite'. ⟧
⟦ Failed! Kim Yura (trainer) cannot be selected as a target. ⟧
"You… seems like you're one step ahead of me."
"You talk as if I planned all of this or something. I really didn't know you had a system. I only registered you because I was impressed by your determination and wanted to help you. Plus, it's a good deal for both of us. Now that you're my student, I have to train you to earn points and progress in my own system. If I don't, I'll suffer a pretty severe penalty."
"…I'm speechless." Julian massaged his temples, trying to process it all.
Everything that had happened seemed incredibly convenient for Yura. However, there was nothing he could do. The situation was what it was. Heaven's children are terrifying, he thought, resigned. He didn't think this was a coincidence but rather a product of Yura's immense luck as a heaven-blessed protagonist.
"Well, enough talking. Didn't you come here to train?" Yura said, ending the discussion. To her, there was nothing left to say. "Let's start with corrective exercises. Your spine is misaligned from living too much of a sedentary life. Let's head to the training area."
"Alright…"
As he followed Yura toward the training area, system notifications started flashing again before his eyes, but this time with a much more encouraging tone:

⟦ You have received 20 roulette tickets. ⟧
⟦ Congratulations! The user has leveled up to level 3. ⟧
⟦ A new system feature has been unlocked: "Skill Shop". ⟧
The rewards were quite good. Julian was a bit excited. He had even leveled up unexpectedly! He was about to take a look at the skill shop when…
"Lie down here and stretch your arms" Yura suddenly interrupted, pointing to a mat on the floor.
Still slightly disoriented, Julian did as she asked, stretching his arms as his body trembled slightly.
"You've got a lot of scoliosis, but don't worry, I can fix that easily."
With expert movement, Yura took hold of his limbs and began adjusting them with precision. Her touch was firm but not painful, and each time she aligned his posture, Julian could feel small cracks and releases of tension in his back.
"Hmmm… I see" Yura murmured. "The right side of your body is clearly stronger than the left. It'll take more time to correct that."
⟦ Kim Yura (trainer) is using a high-level technique on the user: Celestial Postural Correction (★★★☆☆). ⟧
