"Heave-ho, heave-ho...."
The waterlon wasn't particularly large, but the girl's fra was genuinely small, and combined with extended periods of staying indoors, even walking a few steps while holding the waterlon tired her out.
Her slender arms had hardly any strength at all.
However, this scene, as witnessed by outsiders, was made incredibly adorable by Misaki Saki holding the waterlon.
Who's daughter is this, so good and understanding to help buy groceries at such a young age?
And carrying such a big waterlon at that!
It must be said, Misaki Saki's appearance really made it impossible to tell just how old the girl was!
.....
The morning sun slowly rose,
the roadside scenery seed to be equipped with a natural filter. Though it gradually receded into the distance, the patterns on the tree trunks remained clear.
The boy took firm, steady steps, jogging rhythmically on the streets.
The breeze blowing in his face felt refreshing, and after a steady ten-minute run, Haruka Yuzan finally slowed down, regulating his breathing as he admired the scenery along Tokyo's streets,
reminiscent of a scene straight out of an ani, the sounds of car horns in his ears, a 'No Entry' sign placed nearby,
while the first train of the morning rumbled by on the tracks.
Today, Haruka Yuzan's running route was different from usual; he headed towards a more secluded part of Shinjuku Ward.
He stopped walking, not exactly sure where he had ended up, and could only return the sa way he ca... Experience more on m-v|l e'-
It seed as if he rembered sothing; Haruka Yuzan summoned the virtual reality panel,
[Landlord Information: Haruka Yuzan]
[Physical Strength: 8]
[Intelligence: 8]
[Charm: 9]
[Beginner Skills X1 (To be extracted)]
[Tenant Information: Roast at, Reiko Onodera, Misaki Saki, Chiba Shimizu.]
He had even extracted a skill from Chiba Shimizu yesterday, which was the first ti Haruka Yuzan had encountered such a thing.
Without hesitation, he thought "extract" in his mind.
The [Beginner Skills] section on the virtual reality panel started to shatter and disappear, and a new line of text scrolled in at the end.
[Extraction Successful]
[Acquired Beginner Skill: Golden Right Hand]
???
???
Looking at his newly acquired skill, Haruka Yuzan's face was full of question marks.
Golden Right Hand?
Common hand, skillful hand, initial move, even the divine wind's single-handed touch he had heard of.
But what was this Golden Right Hand???
It was as if answering his doubts, the virtual reality panel continued rolling out new subtitles.
[Beginner Skill: Golden Right Hand: After using this skill, your right hand will receive the blessing from the god of love and desire.]
[PS: Cooldown period of three hours, can only be used on the sa person once per day.]
[PS: Skill is currently at a beginner level, as the level increases, cooldown periods will decrease and chances of success will also improve.]
[Evaluation: Since you've drawn the "Golden Right Hand" as a beginner skill, why not look forward to "Beautiful Girl Kaleidoscope 14" updating tonight?]
Upon seeing this skill, Haruka Yuzan nearly spit out a mouthful of old blood. This skill—why did it seem so indecent?
Beginner skills should be like,
basic cooking, basic driving skills, basic English theory....
Even if it had been a bit more provocative, like a "beginner-level body strengthening" for greater endurance, he would have let it go,
but this "Golden Right Hand"...
Haruka Yuzan looked at his right hand, just as a ray of sunlight shined down, making his long fingers appear to emit a faint glow.
Well, best to head ho and try out the new skill with Mrs. Onodera and Misaki Saki.
Not for any particular reason, just out of pure curiosity...
He had just accompanied Reiko Onodera and the others to the supermarket before going his separate ways.
He wondered if they had arrived ho by now—or they should be... almost ho, right?
.......
"Heave-ho, heave-ho! I'm exhausted!"
On the neighborhood street, Misaki Saki struggled along with a plastic bag in hand.
Inside the clear bag was a small waterlon, which seed quite a challenge for the girl.
She walked down the street with the bag swinging in her little hands.
Haruka Yuzan, that guy, he totally knew we'd have to carry waterlons, so he said he was going out for a run! I'm dead tired!!!"
Chiba Shimizu also carried a waterlon, but compared to the little girl beside her, she seed much more at ease with a carefree deanor.
A slight difference in Physical Strength Level is fatal, the difference between passing and failing.
"Why don't I take the waterlon? I'm not tired."
On the other side, Reiko Onodera offered help with a hint of concern. She had planned to carry both waterlons while letting the two girls carry the vegetables and at, making it easier for them.
But, after paying, Chiba Shimizu and Misaki Saki were already waiting, each holding a waterlon...
"No need! I'm okay!"
Hearing the offer, Misaki Saki quickly shook her head in refusal and, to prove her point, raised the waterlon to her chest with her delicate arms. However, she couldn't maintain the pose for even two seconds before the waterlon dropped back down again,
Her insufficient Physical Strength Level of five could only support her posturing for a mont,
"See, I... *pant*... I told you I was fine... *pant*..."
As she spoke, she gasped for air, her cute face turning a bit rosy from the exertion.
Mrs. Onodera's regular contributions were noticed by everyone, not only did she take care of cooking and cleaning, but sotis she even volunteered to do the laundry.
This is also why, when everyone found out about Reiko Onodera's upcoming birthday, they were all so intent on making it special.
Those who treat the world gently will always find the world treats them gently in return...
