Chapter 40: WTF (1)

Sitting in the backseat of the car, I was looking at the messages in my retina.

[Quest Completed!]

[Quest: Nejire Hado, your older sister, is disappointed in you because of what you did with your maid. Currently, she is in a state of betrayal, disbelief and shock. This is the perfect opportunity to strike her – in case you want her to be with you.

Objective:

Make Nejire accept her feelings for you.

Earn her forgiveness for ‘betraying’ her.

Time limit: Before your first day at U.A.

Reward: [Harem Lord] Title, Tier Level-up Potion 2x.

Penalty: [Green Hat] Title, 50 points loss in CHA.]

[Reward is being distributed!]

[Tier-level up potion 2x, obtained!]

[Tier-level up potion:

"Only the Gamer can level up" – this potion was created only to thwart that belief by the "Director of the Last Act".

By drinking this potion, a person who isn't a Gamer, can get a certain amount of (something similar to) "exp", which allows them to level up their Tiers!]

"Hm…"

Director of the Last Act…? I think I have heard this name before, just can't put my finger in it. Anyway, this thing is too good to waste.

Moving on,

[“Harem Lord” title, obtained!]

[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.]

This honestly presented me with a weird idea…

Do I make a harem- or rather, do I expand my harem?

I mean, I already have one, but I didn't plan to have them from the get go. I am not seeking a harem, to be clear.

But do I, after getting such a title, start seeking a harem?

If this was the previous me, the answer would have been a simple yes, but this is not simple. For the old me, having a harem was the same as having a bunch of cum-dumpsters. But to the current me, I consider girls as actual people with personalities.

By expanding my current harem, I am binding the fate of actual people I care about with mine. They'd have to fight the Gods with me. Am I okay with that?

Mostly not… but if the girl is strong herself, then maybe…

For example, Momo. Her quirk is super versatile and valuable. If I give her a few Tier level-up potions, she would become, in one word – dangerous.

To add on top of it, just imagine how strong she'd be if she had Mana too. She'd be a literal Goddess of creation...

But I don't want to "waste" the Tier potions on my "friend". Only my lovers deserve this, since I need to ensure their safety with it.

So, do I add Momo to the "Harem"?

"..."

Decisions.

Momo is interested in me, I am aware. But our relationship is just touching here and there and joking it off. We are just intimate friends, but still friends, nothing more.

Well… if I am really planning to fight Gods, I guess a Goddess of Creation in my party would help a lot?

"..."

I heaved a breath.

I said a moment ago that I stopped taking girls as nothing more than mere cum dumps, yet I am thinking of using Momo as a "tool", is it any better?

On second thought, I do like her too… Maybe not as much as Nejire or even Kimi, but she is still my closest female friend.

Okay…

It's decided then. I guess I can build a harem. Just need to make sure I don't start thinking with my dick, and use my brain instead.

Then, the system’s voice rang in my head.

[For reference, Master, “less aversion” doesn’t necessarily mean the title would make them completely okay with the idea of “harem”, you need to work around that yourself. That applies to your potential new girls too. Please, take care of your girls better, Master.]

...Oookay? How am I supposed to feel when an AI tells me to manage my harem better?

Anyway, now that I have two titles – I plan to equip the "Harem Lord" title always and only switch to the "Fearless" title in a fight.

I did as I thought as I quickly equipped the Harem Lord title just as... something happened.

I don't know what it was, but I do know something changed in the multiverse. More accurately, something within the two girls sitting beside me…

-

After reaching home, I first called both of them to my room.

"Here, drink these."

I handed both Kimi and Nejire the Tier level up potions as they accepted it.

"Uh, what's this?" Kimi asked, observing the bottle.

"Hmm," Nejire had a small and cute frown on her head. "You're acting sus, Neji."

I just shrugged casually while sitting in the bed. Nejire and Kimi were sitting on the couch in front of me.

I first looked at their tiers.

<Nejire Hado - Tier 3>

<Kimi Sugihara - Tier 4>

Kimi is the same as before, while Nejire is stronger than her canon self, who I assume was Tier 2 by the start of U.A. This has various reasons behind it. One, she was trained by Shifu. Two, she accompanied me on training when I trained my Quirk. Three, the Hero Middle-school.

Seeing me just observing them, waiting for them to start, they opened the bottle regardless and poured down the contents in one go.

Good to see the trust.

Immediately, a red aura surrounded them while they both blinked continuously.

""What's this?""

Both of them questioned, while I observed the situation with an attentive look.

Both of their bodies started to levitate in the air while they looked around, surprised.

Next, something I clearly wasn't expecting happened. A black greasy and oily substance, yes, those things from Cultivation Novels, came out of their bodies while their expression turned horrified.

Soon, the aura disappeared as both of them landed back on the couch… releasing a stink.

I looked at their tiers again, smiling softly.

<Nejire Hado - Tier 4>

<Kimi Sugihara - Tier 5>

Luckily the potions had enough "exp" to level up their tiers.

Though my smile stiffned the next moment, hearing my older sister's words.

"Neji~ you've got a lot of explaining to do~"

Contrary to her cheerful tune, Nejire glared at me as I shrugged while having my nostrils shut by my fingers.

"First take a shower, you stink."

"..."

-

"So, Neji, what was that?"

"A beauty product I bought from the dark web." I smiled looking at Nejire who came back from showering.

Nejire stared at me funny while Kimi observed her body from behind her.

They were both wrapping themselves in nothing but towels, so I was getting a good view.

They were beautiful before. But now they were stunning. The most apparent change in their skin, no, it's not a change in their skin tone – it didn't become jade-white. Whiter skin doesn't mean more beautiful, at least not in my book.

The true description would be their skin is... More High Resolution-ed(?). It's almost as if they were redrawn in a new style.

"Well, it certainly isn't a beauty product…" Kimi flexed her arm muscles. "I feel much stronger than before… Young Miss might not realise it since hers isn't a bodily type quirk, but I can feel the changes."

Nejire turned to her. "No, I can feel some changes in my body's strength too… It's not that much, but I do feel stronger than before. Oh, and you should stop calling me young miss."

"Uh…" Kimi thinned her lips.

Sighing, Nejire went closer to Kimi and hugged her tightly. "Oh, Kimi!! Stop acting so nervous! I said I accepted your relationship, didn't I? Sorry for saying that one line back in the coffee shop, it was necessary. Just call me Nejire, or Nejire-chan if you are so reluctant."

"Okay…" Kimi nodded with a new smile on her face.

I see that Kimi was still a bit nervous around her. After all, Nejire is the person who said, "Would you leave her for me?", to me, the person she loves the most, probably. Nice to see my sis opening up in front of her.

Though I don't believe this is the Harem Lord title's affect… My family members are just too nice. First, my Mom, who let Kimi come with us on the anniversary, and now Nejire who is accepting Kimi so easily…

Anyway, I have to bullshit my way through.

"Anyway, Neji, where did you get this?” Nejire finally turned to me with a serious look on her face. "Tell the truth."

"Well, fine." I shrugged. “It’s my second quirk.”

Both of them frowned.

Ignoring them, I started my explanation. “Sometimes different [Items] spawn in my [Personal Dimension], that’s where I got these items. Oh, Kimi, you always wanted to know where I vanished off to? Sometimes, the [Gate] to my Personal Dimension spawns outside my reach, so I need to go there to fetch my items.”

I didn’t tell them that I needed to fight strong monsters with my life on the line because that would just make them worry pointlessly.

While humming, Nejire narrowed her eyes. “You’re capping right?”

“No, it’s fax, for real.”

Kimi didn’t talk since she has already seen my ‘magical’ capabilities before. She seemed to have somehow believed me.

“Show proof.” But Nejire wasn’t the same.

“Well…”

I slipped my hands inside the air, causing Nejire’ eyes to pop out. I took out a fancy looking red-coloured Carpet with strange encryptions on it.

Nejire wanted to say something, but I interrupted her. “First let me demonstrate this to you.”

I threw the carpet to the ground as it landed perfectly on the floor without any sound.

“Kimi,” I called. “Sit on top of it, please.”

Kimi nodded reluctantly as she walked atop the carpet then sat down. Then, with a motion of my hand, the carpet started floating.

“Kya!”

I flew the carpet around a little before putting it down.

Kimi looked at the carpet horrifyingly as I talked, “Ever heard of that very old movie, Aladdin? This is a Magic Carpet based on that.”

Nejire stared at me with a shocked look on her face. “Whoa… you weren't lying? Does magic exist? Wait, wait, so is Kurai actually a magical cat??"

Ignoring her, I then took off my earring.

“We can talk about that later, but, I was lying when I said I can replicate something similar to telekinesis because of my Quirk’s growth.” I tossed the earring that she caught. “It’s this earring's magic.”

Nejire blinked. “So that’s why you never let me touch it even though I wanted to?”

At my nod, she quickly wore the earring as she felt an invisible force under her mind’s control.

Blinking, she raised her hand at the monitor hung in the wall.

“Wait-”

She clutched her palm as a crushing force shattered the monitor into pieces.

“...”

“...”

“...”

“Okay, I believe you now.”

She got up and smiled at me cheekily… oh no.

“But this is mine, from now on, thank you very much.”

She turned around and made a run for it.

“Hey stop!”

I tried to move but tripped and fell face-first on the floor, though luckily the carpet caught me midway.

The carpet moved according to me and followed Nejire.

Unsurprisingly, the other maids were sent for a mental check after that day.

«—(★)—»

A few days later,

I was in the car, going somewhere… Precisely, Takoba Municipal Beach Park.

The same beach park where Izuku Midoriya was trained by All Might in the canon timeline.

Considering that the sludge villain incident happened in this timeline as well, based on the T.V news, I feel like I should visit Izuku and All Might to change some important things.

I would have preferred to interfere in the sludge villain incident, but it was practically impossible for me to be present there on the right day, right time – without my LUCK helping me, which it didn’t.

So I think it’s time to do things manually…

The smooth sound of the car engine caused me to crackle up, all to Kimi's sudden shock.

One For All, "Here I come."
