Looking at Fujimaru Tachibana's smiling face, Caster Tokiyuki seemed to remember something and remained silent for a while before replying.
Your smile is as dazzling as the sun.
However, for me, too much light would only hurt me...
Someone like me deserves to exist in the darkness...
—This—is—a—plot—clue—
After finally managing to shake off Aki Tomoya, who was still bothering him, Sojo started strolling around the streets.
"It's still early, how about we go for a walk... Oh, right, since I have money now, then—"
Chang Yan seemed to remember something and turned to walk towards the train station.
If you have money, you should definitely go out and have fun, like in Akihabara.
Although my past memories show that I had been to Akihabara, memories are just memories; I haven't actually been there myself.
Then he discovered that tram perverts really do exist.
Moreover, there are both men and women.
Chang Yan was speechless as he watched the girl rubbing against him, pretending to be casual.
If you weren't so good-looking, I would have hit you already.
Sigh, being too handsome is a sin.
Chapter 158 Being Too Attractive Is Really Not My Fault
Using the shadows to make the girl who had been groping him fall as a small lesson, Chang Yan walked into Akihabara full of expectations, entering this place known as the holy land of otaku.
Wow, so many cosplayers!
Wow, so many pretty girls.
Wow, how come they all ended up around me...?
"Onii-chan, how about we go check out our maid café?"
"Handsome guy, can we take a picture together?"
"Little brother, would you like a drink?"
......
Looking at the young women surrounding him and the several flushed men hiding behind the crowd, Chang Yan felt a little flustered.
Wait, what's going on? I shouldn't be that charming! Even just wearing an outfit that suits me shouldn't be this attractive!
It's almost like a wide-ranging allure, drawing people in from all around.
"Excuse me, could you move aside? I have something to do. Thank you!"
He hurriedly broke free from the crowd surrounding him and ran across several streets to a clothing store.
(Change your clothes first, and see what's going on.)
Chang Yan looked around and was immediately stunned.
What? All of these are women's clothes?
"Excuse me, sir, this is a women's clothing store."
The waitress blushed slightly and said shyly to Chang Yan.
"...Sorry to bother you."
He turned and ran away in one smooth motion, clearly a hero among straight men.
Chang Yan ran out expressionlessly and then went to another clothing store.
This shop specializes in selling cosplay costumes. Changyan browsed for a while and bought a FFF group uniform, a Marine Admiral's coat from Aquaman, and a jacket from Prototype.
Ignoring the shop assistant's furtive glances, Chang Yan decisively changed into her coat and pulled the hood up over her head.
Okay, that should work.
Then Chang Yan walked out confidently.
He was then surrounded again.
Because the hood covered his slightly deep-set eyes, it added a lot of mystery to him.
A cosplayer looks cool and mysterious, so what do you want to do?
Of course, it's for taking pictures.
If you look closely, you'll find that this cosplayer is not only cool and mysterious, but also very handsome!
Of course, we should hurry up and take a group photo!
(System, what's going on? I admit I'm handsome, but I'm not this handsome!)
(Because the host's body has fully adapted to the Fruit of Life, it has an instinctive attraction to other creatures. You can think of it as a passive skill that increases favorability upon first meeting.)
(...This sounds more and more like the abilities in some adult anime/manga? Am I going to become the male protagonist of an adult anime/manga from now on, sow countless seeds, and then get killed by Kiyohime with a hatchet on the rooftop?)
(But now, it seems like even if my head were to be severed, it wouldn't matter to me...)
Faced with that seemingly limitless vitality, as long as every single cell in Chang Yan's body isn't crushed, he can be resurrected on the spot with full health and mana in no time.
As the saying goes, one can only helplessly take photos with a bunch of excited people while asking the system for a solution.
(There's no way to deal with this for now, host. This attraction is unavoidable unless you obtain a rare item like Wang Nima's hood that can conceal yourself.)
The system's response was like a bucket of cold water poured over Chang Yan's head, making him look utterly hopeless.
He currently only has two side quests available.
But if we want to accomplish these two things... let's just forget about it and wait patiently.
Ugh.
After taking several group photos, the group seemed a little embarrassed and dispersed.
You've been standing around him for ages, didn't you see how utterly hopeless he looked?
After the crowd dispersed, Chang Yan sighed to express his feelings, then bought a cup of milk tea. He sat down on a secluded chair, pulled his hood down a little, and unconsciously drank his milk tea while looking at the various people in front of him.
Thinking about it, it's been a long time since I've felt this relaxed while I'm out.
It's either one person recklessly spying on a ghoul, or one going off with a bunch of cultists in a chaotic mess.
Either you're courting death by delivering the final blow to a god, or you're going to join forces with your own version of yourself, oh my god!
It's really... just thinking about it makes me feel both annoyed (excited).
All I wanted was a peaceful life (to kill them).
So, don't bother me (let me kill you).
"Go, my shadow, deal with him (eat him)."
Chang Yan threw the empty milk tea into the trash can and stood up indifferently.
From the gloomy, filthy alley next to the seat came a strange chewing sound, followed by a fleeting scream.
"Life is so fragile. So, young men and women, remember to live well!"
"In this crazy world!"
Chang Yan turned his back to the wary teenagers watching him and walked towards the crowd.
"A superhuman... that voice really gave me goosebumps."
"Endo, use your ability to see if there are any living creatures left there."
"I understand... There are none left. Not only are there no living ones, but there are no corpses either."
"That sound just now... it really was..."
"Alright, stop thinking about it. Since he helped us deal with that ghoul, he should be a decent person. Let's check the place and then leave, and then report to our superiors."
(Is this a team similar to The Witcher? I even spotted a familiar face, but they're incredibly weak.)
Rather than saying they are weak, it's more accurate to say they've grown too fast, as the saying goes.
"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. Hmm, I have nothing to do at home anyway, so I might as well buy some more games and comics."
With this in mind, Chang Yan walked into the store happily.
Staying at home, always staying at home.
Looking at the dazzling array of goods in front of him, Chang Yan touched his bank card and revealed a confident smile.
In the past, because of poverty, I could only buy one or two things, and then I would look longingly at other things.
Today, I'm going to experience what it's like for a tycoon to buy things.
Buy, buy, buy, buy, buy!
"This one, and this one too! Oh my god, this is actually a collector's edition! I have to buy it, I'm not human if I don't!"
"Oh my, these comic book covers are really amazing, I'll buy them all... But, if I buy them and take them home, what will Kiyohime think of me... Oh well, I'll just hide them and read them secretly. Anyway, it's just for admiring, just for admiring."
Chapter 159 Transfer Student
It feels amazing to be rich.
Amidst the stares of a bunch of poor guys watching the big shot, Chang Yan, carrying a large pile of bags, walked out of the store with a satisfied expression.
So cool.
"Oh right, Kiyohime doesn't seem to have a cell phone yet... I'll take her to buy one later."
Ignoring the several figures that had been following him, Chang Yan carried the bag and headed towards the station.
"I never expected someone so incredibly talented to be such a shut-in..."
"Hey, what did I do to offend you, you otaku? What gives you the right to look down on otaku!"
No, I mean—
"Alright, all of you shut up! Now that he's gone, there's no need for us to follow him anymore. Let's go."
As a spirited young girl shouted, the others obediently followed her and left.
Time passed and the next day arrived—
"Ugh, another dreaded school day! I'm off, Kiyohime!"
As usual, he put the specially prepared bento box that Kiyohime had made into his schoolbag, waved goodbye, and walked towards the school gate.
After watching Changyan leave, Kiyohime picked up her new phone.
"Sometimes, I want to give you a surprise, Master Changyan."
With a smile that seemed to belong to Mo Min, Kiyohime made contact with someone.
"Hello, is this Ms. Itsuka? This is Kiyohime..."
------
"Hyoudou didn't come to school today, and neither did Aisha?"
"Hmm, I heard it's some kind of club activity, and we'll be gone for several days."
(Rias and the others all went out... Oh, I remember now, this scene seems to be Hyoudou Issei's wedding-crashing scene. Not only did he successfully crash the wedding, but he also stole the heart of the bride's sister. Tsk tsk tsk, as expected of the protagonist.)
"Oh well, I really envy him."
As the saying goes, he shrugged, and just then the school bell rang.
Hiratsuka Shizuka walked in with heavy steps, and judging from her expressionless face, it was clear that her matchmaking attempt had failed again.
Sigh, why doesn't Hiratsuka Shizuka-sensei, who is so cute, has a great figure, is good at fighting, and is kind to her students, have a boyfriend?
It's truly an unsolved mystery.
