Chapter 53: Yet Another Ability! (Part 4)

Translator: Sparrow Translations  Editor: Sparrow Translations

“Lu Shu, quick! Make me a crepe!”

As Lu Shu pondered about the matters of Zhi Wei and his neighbor, Lu Xiaoyu started asking him for food. And as of now, Lu Xiaoyu strongly believed that Lu Shu’s abilities were to make food appear out of thin air and he could definitely make those crepes for her; only that he didn’t want to, what a petty person!

“I’m telling you, Lu Shu, your supernatural powers are so weak that you can’t even make a crepe appear. How are you going to make a name for yourself in the world of metahumans in the future?” Lu Xiaoyu lamented.

“How many times do I have to say this? I can’t make a crepe appear out of nowhere!” as Lu Shu snapped. After changing into his slipper, Lu Shu entered the lottery once again by raising his hand and then handed over a portion of stinky tofu over to Lu Xiaoyu… In the past, he would fear those words “Thank You For Participating” but right now, every lottery participation rewarded him with a portion of stinky tofu without fail, haha!

Lu Xiaoyu wasn’t a picky eater and simply accepted the stinky tofu from Lu Shu since having something would definitely be better than having nothing at all right?

“How about movies over the weekend?” asked Lu Shu.

Lu Xiaoyu looked over at Lu Shu with suspicion in her eyes, “Movie tickets are expensive, I don’t want to go.”

“I no longer sell those eggs anymore. I’m selling these stinky tofu and I’ve already earned about a hundred today since they don’t cost anything. Maybe I’ll sell even more tomorrow, so… we have money!” Lu Shu explained the situation to her joyfully.

He knew that she wanted to go as she had been bugging Lu Shu to go to the movies with her when she was not as mature in the past. And Lu Shu could even remember the title of the movie she had wanted to watch- Ice Age 2: The Meltdown.

At that point in time, Lu Shu was really short on cash and if he had really brought her to the movies, he wouldn’t even be able to afford their meals. Thus, he had braced himself and ruthlessly rejected Lu Xiaoyu’s wishes.

Shortly after, he rented the DVD for it and they watched it together in their apartment. And even though Lu Xiaoyu was just as happy watching it at home, this incident left a significant mark in his heart where he felt that he had seriously let this little girl down.

Although Lu Shu would take the initiative to invite her out to the movies recently, she would turn down his offer and claim that just watching the TV was enough for her.

And as a result, Lu Shu’s heart would ache every time he recalls that moment in the past.

Lu Shu had sold a little over 20 portions of stinky tofus today and he had already earned more than a hundred dollars. With his current 14000+ points, he could draw even more stinky tofus and hopefully, tomorrow’s business would be better than today’s.

As such, Lu Shu thought that it would be fine to bring Lu Xiaoyu to the movies just this once.

Initially slouching on the sofa, Lu Xiaoyu’s eyes sparkled as she sat up straight the moment she heard Lu Shu explaining the situation to her in all seriousness, “Really? Recently, there’s this new movie called Avatar which seemed really good and they claim to have some 3D effects. Can we really go?”

“Of course,” as Lu Shu smiled at her. It’s only at times like this when this little girl’s joyous and surprised expression would bring out a great sense of achievement within Lu Shu. Handing over his handphone to Lu Xiaoyu, “Come on, we can even choose our seats now. We’ll settle on this Sunday afternoon and after that, we can go eat duck blood vermicelli soup in the evening.”

Lu Xiaoyu was very simple-minded as she was contented as long as there’s Lu Shu around for her and food to eat.

But if there were movies for her to watch, it would surely be even better!

After Lu Shu handed over his phone to Lu Xiaoyu, he started today’s lottery participation. The lottery had gotten a lot less daunting due to the fact that there would always be stinky tofu awarded instead of nothing previously; and if by chance anything special were to be revealed, it would just be a surprise bonus.

This morning’s stinky tofu sold out relatively quickly not because of the fact that everyone loved its taste but rather, due to him not having sufficient distress points to stock up on them.

Even if he was to have 30 more servings of it, they would probably be sold out as well. However, the main point was that they were indeed delicious and perhaps, there would be returning customers again tomorrow. Which was why he needed to prepare a little for tomorrow’s sales.

Lu Shu gave it second thoughts and decided to draw 50 portions out because of two main considerations. Firstly, if he had drawn more portions out from the lottery, his storage box wouldn’t be able to contain all of them. And secondly, if his business was to carry on for any longer, it could possibly hinder him from getting to school on time.

Lu Shu did not have any special favorable background and if he was to be late, he would definitely be disliked by his form teacher, Shi Qingyan, even though his results were rather decent. This was something which he didn’t want.

It wasn’t that he did not want to hear the complaints from others but rather, worried that he could not endure those complaints any further and end up hating them back instead… …That was a joke. Lu Shu had ascertained that it was definitely just a joke.

Although 50 portions seemed too little, it could earn him $250 a day which amounted up to $7500 a month. This meant that his life together with Lu Xiaoyu could be much more financially secure.

The sum of the average wage of two middle-aged workers in Luo Cheng did not exceed 10 thousand currently and even though it was demanding for him to single-handedly pay for both their school fees; there wouldn’t come a time where he would not be able to handle it.

One portion of stinky tofu, two portions of stinky tofu… … as Lu Shu repeatedly entered the lottery. And even till now, he wasn’t sure if the stinky tofus were similar to the Refresher fruit where he would reach a certain limit of drawing them from the lottery before it became a permanent item in the store.

Just at this moment, Lu Shu was stunned for a second. He had just seen a flicker of something which wasn’t a stinky tofu when he was continuously spinning the lottery wheel!

He had continued to spin the lottery wheel due to habit and did not notice the new item which had revealed itself.

Lu Shu had gotten a bit excited and quickly opened up his system’s inventory to find out what exactly did he pull from the lottery… only to find out that it was a piece of golden paper! Yet again, another piece of golden paper!

Lu Shu shrieked in elation at that instant as he had not seen this item in such a long while. And judging from his experience, this was, without doubt, a new ability for him.

As of now, he only had the method to cultivate his powers but did not have actual technical abilities.

He currently felt that all he had was an empty, passive ability which resulted in him only being able to have melee combat with others which felt extremely barbaric to him.

If this time it were to empower him with an actual ability skill, it would be so awesome!

This skill had better be one which could destroy the skies and earth or even be as powerful as the Heavenly Buddha Palm. And before going into combat with someone, he could ask them whether they had heard of a skill which would descend from the heavens and demolish them; which would be super cool.

Or it could even be a sword technique which allowed him to control a blade in the air or one which could split open the skies. He could step on top of his blade together with Lu Xiaoyu and go to all sorts of places which would help him save up on their travel cost, what an economically-efficient idea!

For a chosen one such as Lu Shu, it was pointless to have high hopes for him to possess big ambitions. Even if he were to learn such a skill which allowed him to control a flying sword, the first thing on his mind was to bring Lu Xiaoyu along for a joyride… What a hopeless brat!

After retrieving the item from his inventory, Lu Shu scanned over the words written on the paper and felt rather awkward this time. They were illegible to him.

How do I use this? I’m fine with singing yet another lullaby, but how can I sing anything if I can’t even read it?

Just at this point, Lu Xiaoyu strutted along and curiously asked, “Lu Shu, what’s that in your hands?”

And just as she approached him, the golden paper suddenly disintegrated into a cluster of golden-colored powder which floated its way into Lu Xiaoyu’s body!

After the golden paper had vanished, Lu Shu felt a sense of impatience from the paper. It seemed as though that it would… seek out its own master.
