The Cursed Gamer Chapter 76: Power-up (2)

"Tch."

Tomura Shigaraki clicked his tongue, rubbing his neck with one of his hands, making sure to not use all five of his fingers.

He had sohow survived this ti. All his plans went downhill because of one single kid, but he indeed survived.

"Master, I want that kid dead..."

He hissed at the monitor, where a mic emoji was in place instead of showing All for One's face.

["Oh, Shigaraki."] All for One sounded gentle. ["Of course, you can kill him, you can kill All Might, and even that whole class, as long as you want. Just that, you need to be careful. We lost 2 Nomus, two Nomus who could have destroyed the Top Heroes together, this loss would take ti to heal."]

Silence fell on Shigaraki's side. He didn't have any excuses. He has failed his master, and instead of insulting him, and even being disappointed in him, his master instead simply said he should try another 100 tis if he has failed once. Truly, he liked this about him.

["Also, have your impression of little Izuku changed after this?"]

Shigaraki darkened at this. Izuku Midoriya, a kid who appeared out of nowhere a year ago. He spends most of his ti with his mother in a proper apartnt in the city, but he sotis cos here to train. Shigaraki hated that kid's guts. He even hated how the kid looks, in fact. They have fought before, a lot of tis actually. But Kurogiri stopped them both before it could get serious. It was not wrong to say Izuku was one of the guys he hates the most.

The sa was with Izuku, he knew that.

But even with that hate, Izuku saved him this ti around. If he hadn't called his master in ti, Shigaraki was sure he wouldn't have made it since by that ti UA teachers had arrived there. Kurogiri was already unconscious, so if not for All for One, he would have also been captured.

He scratched the back of his neck. "...I guess he is not as bad as I thought he was."

All for One gave a small laugh.

Neji was happy with all this developnt. He would be ahead of all his girls together at one point, that's just how the Gar System works, but for now, they were valuable assets.

The problem with this was the rarity of the potions. From what he had seen, Tier Potions can only be gained from hard quests, and he rarely cos across such quests nowadays, the most recent being USJ and next Nejire's Capture (as Kimi put it). This is why he was looking forward to his brief ti at UA, where countless opportunities would arise, thus the appearance of countless Quests, aning a large supply of Tier Potions.

But while strength was important, so was a battle experience.

Nejire has fought her own share of enemies in her past two years, her class wasn't anything like his, but they had their own numbers of 'Fortuitous Encounters'. But even then, in her third year, she would face more dangerous things if his predictions go right. Both Momo and Nejire would get their training done.

The problem was Kimi.

She is an ex-hero, and now a bodyguard, but she barely had to do her job, which is causing her to get rusty. If not for the occasional training he does with her, she would be just a woman with the power she isn't even aware she has.

Even in their 2-years-trip, they only encountered 3 villains, though Neji made sure the news didn't go to his parents. After that trip, the number had increased noticeably, since Nejire and Neji both travelled in the sa car, his parents' enemies didn't want to lose this opportunity. Again, the villains they hired couldn't even make Kimi use her , actually, now that he thought about it, he has never seen her full power. She refused to use her full power whenever they trained together, scared that it might hurt him.

How foolish, caring and cute that was.

"Okay, I should probably drop Momo at her ho, it's night already." Neji started.

A silence fell in the room as Momo exchanged glances with others.

Momo looked at him. "Uh… can't I stay?"

"I an, do you want to stay?"

"That…"

She moved her eyes to see Nejire, subconsciously asking her for permission.

"Eh." Nejire shrugged. "Don't look at like that. I dunno, we don't have spare rooms." That was a lie. "If you want to stay, you gotta share a bed with Neji, maybe." Now, that was the truth.

Neji wasn't expecting this though. What type of sister… sister who he sleeps with, will push another girl into his bed? Well, his Harem Lord title had many things to say, apparently.

[Title, Harem Lord:

—Increased affinity with the opposite sex, causing them to feel slight attraction towards you without any particular reason.

—Your partners would have less aversion towards sharing you among themselves.]

Now this wasn't really 'less' aversion… unless Nejire is trying to actually make up for her previous harsh treatnt, the skill is probably downplaying itself in the description.

anwhile, Kurai stared at them, blinking, her curiosity apparent even from her cat-like expression.

—★—

Momo was going to sleep with him, Neji certainly wouldn't complain.

She had already done it with her mouth, and since she didn't deny Nejire's idea, Neji didn't mind knowing if she was caring to cross the final line or not. A smart girl, who is apparently even smarter now, should know what to expect in a situation like this.

The eting had happened in Neji's room, so after chatting about so casual things, Nejire, Kimi and Kurai left, leaving Neji and Momo behind to… sleep.

Because of his
