'Oh well, I'll deal with it when the time comes.'
'Or, maybe she really just wants to have dinner,' Hikari thought, brushing off his worries.
'Thinking too much won't help anyway. What's important now is to keep hunting down blonde thugs, spreading the will of the Pure Love War God, and getting stronger.'
While Hikari was lost in thought, little did he know that the white-haired widow, Mifuyu Yukino, on the other side was also caught in her own daydreamsâand had just finished masturbating to them.
âââ
Shoving all other concerns aside, Hikari followed Natsuha as they hopped into a taxi. Natsuha seemed visibly pained as she opened her phone to check her remaining balance.
Once the car started moving, Hikari was about to open up his system to review his points and rewards when Natsuha handed him a school jacket.
"Here, your jacket."
Because Natsuha had been drenched earlier, Hikari had lent her his school jacket. Now, he was only wearing a white undershirt.
Hikari took the jacket and immediately noticed a faint, unfamiliar scent. He glanced at Natsuha. "This isn't the one I lent you, is it?"
Natsuha nodded. "No, it's one I bought by mistake. It's oversized, so I thought it would fit you."
"And the one I gave you?"
Natsuha looked away, her eyes darting to the side. "I... don't knowâŠ"
"What? You don't know?" Hikari raised an eyebrow in suspicion.
Natsuha quickly explained, "It was⊠dirty! I'll wash it for you and give it back later."
Hikari shook his head, exasperated. "You're not up to anything weird with my jacket, are you?"
"N-no! Don't say stuff like that!" Natsuha's face turned a deep crimson. 'How does he always seem to know everything?'
She immediately recalled hugging his jacket upstairs, burying her face in it like some crazed fangirl, inhaling his scent greedily. Now, she could only feel her face heating up more, steam practically rising from her head in embarrassment.
Hikari had only been joking, not expecting much of a reaction. He really didn't care all that much. After all, today, Natsuha had unknowingly helped him rake in quite a few Pure Love Points from Oga Masaru.
Not to mention, she was nearby when he'd stumbled upon Yukino and the disgusting apartment manager, which had netted him even more points.
In a way, Natsuha was turning out to be a little good luck charm, making her seem a lot more tolerable to Hikari than before.
Paying no attention to Natsuha's blushing, Hikari opened up his system panel.
[Host: Hikari Nakamura]
[Physique: 26]
[Strength: 16]
[Speed: 16]
[Reflex: 16]
[Mental Power: 16]
[Pure Love Points: 250]
[Skills: Corpse Cremation]
[Items: Shenbao Nutritional Drink x18]
[...]
After some good, righteous punishment dealt to Oga Masaru, Hikari's points had climbed to 250.
Without hesitation, Hikari started two rounds of the ten-spin lottery.
[Ding! Congratulations, Host has received Shenbao Nutritional Drink x9!]
[Ding! Congratulations, Host has received the skill: Pure Love Aura Vision!]
[Pure Love Aura Vision: Allows the Host to see the aura surrounding others, indicating their fate and circumstances.]
Hikari examined the newly acquired Aura Vision skill.
After some experimentation, he figured out the basics.
When activated, everyone had a visible aura hovering over their head. For normal people, it emitted white light. For women in danger of being harassed by yellow-haired thugs, their auras glowed a dangerous red.
The thugs themselves? Their auras were a mix of red and black, indicating serious threats. As for the victims, their auras glowed greenâa clear sign of those wronged.
'Not bad. This skill will definitely be useful. Combined with my knowledge from my previous life, I can use this to stop trouble before it even starts. No more girls getting hurt under my watch."
'
Hikari decided to test the skill out. He activated Aura Vision and glanced at the taxi driverâa white aura. Then, he turned to Natsuhaâalso a white aura.
Perhaps it was because he'd just saved her from Oga Masaru's harassment that her aura wasn't showing any red.
But what intrigued Hikari was the faint pink glow mixed with her white aura. 'What is that about? Maybe it is some after-effect from my Pure Love Halo?'
Shrugging it off, Hikari proceeded with his second lottery spin.
[Ding! Congratulations, Host has received Shenbao Nutritional Drink x9!]
[Ding! Congratulations, Host has received the skill: Silver Tongue]
[Silver Tongue: Enhances the persuasive power of the Host's words. Even far-fetched statements may become convincing, with a very slim chance of manifesting as reality (with an added bonus: extreme flexibility of the tongue).]
'Ugh, the lottery really hates me. But this Silver Tongue skill⊠is it even legit?'
As he grumbled, Hikari began rolling his tongue around in his mouth.
Sure enough, the flexibility was significantly enhanced. He felt like he could effortlessly use his tongue to pry open a shellfish in countless different ways, which could be useful for seafood lovers.
'But I don't even like seafood⊠what am I thinking�'
On the other hand, Natsuha had noticed Hikari's silence since they got in the taxi, which irritated her. Just moments ago, he was laughing and joking with Yukino, but now he was ignoring her, and she didn't like it. Being someone who was always the center of attention, this treatment made her feel uncomfortably unbalanced.
Wanting to break the ice, she said, "Hey, thanks for helping me with Oga Masaru earlier. I'll make sure to repay you somehow."
She'd meant it casually, hoping to get Hikari to open up a bit.
But Hikari, who had just acquired the Silver Tongue skill, decided to test it out right then and there.
Turning to face Natsuha, he locked eyes with her and, in a calm voice, said, "Repay me later? Why not now? How about a kiss?"
He had only intended to see if Silver Tongue would work, not expecting anything too crazy. At most, he thought maybe she wouldn't reject him outright, or at least hesitate.
What he didn't expect was Natsuha's immediate reaction.
Her body trembled slightly, and she whispered, "Okay."
In the next moment, a soft breeze of perfume filled the air as Natsuha threw her arms around his neck, pulling him close. Her soft lips crashed into his, the kiss happening so quickly that Hikari didn't even have time to react.
'What the hell? Was that one-in-a-million chance of "speaking reality" actually triggered?'
'This is officially my first kiss in this world, right? Not counting that accident with Lady Mira, this is legit.'
'And just like that⊠it's gone? Damn.'
As he stared at the beautiful girl, her flushed face and closed eyes locked in the kiss, Hikari felt a mix of emotions. Sure, this was unexpected, but if his first kiss was going to be stolen, well⊠might as well enjoy it, right?
'While we're at it⊠let's try out that other part of the Silver Tongue skillâŠ'
