Chapter 41 Special Charm
Chapter 41 Special Charm
Hoshino had no idea what Shimizu Rin was thinking.
The novice actor is still working hard.
"I noticed she doesn't get along with my aunt, and now that she's gained superpowers, I'm afraid she'll hurt my aunt..."
"So you came to find me," Shimizu Rin continued, picking up where Hoshino Makoto had left off.
"Yes, sister."
[Shimizu Rin thinks Shimizu Setsukatsu was worth bringing you to Tokyo, affection level +10]
[Shimizu Rin is very satisfied with what you said, satisfaction level +10]
Sitting on the chair, Shimizu Rin looked at the handsome, youthful boy sitting next to her, who barely reached her chest.
Her hair was jet black, and her small face was strikingly pale.
Her eyes were clear and moist, like two pools of clear spring water.
And that soft, sweet voice makes you feel happy and tender just listening to it.
Now, for her aunt's safety, she is even willing to expose herself to reveal her secret of having superpowers.
Little brother, how lucky is your aunt to have found you?
If she knew what you did for her, she would be incredibly moved.
As for Shimizu Kaori, her cousin, Shimizu Rin's eyes became serious.
To ensure her aunt's safety, she must go to her aunt's company tomorrow and try to find a way to remove Shimizu Kayu's superpowers.
Rin Shimizu's idea was not unfounded.
I don't know why, but just now when Shin told her that Shimizu Kayuu also has superpowers...
She had a vague feeling that she could remove Shimizu Kayuu's abilities.
At this moment, Shimizu Rin understood why Hoshino Makoto had come to find her.
She ruffled Hoshino Makoto's hair.
"Xiao Zhen, you came to me wanting me to deal with that Shimizu Kayu."
"Using superpowers to fight superpowers, huh?"
Hoshino Makoto's eyes lit up. Yes, that's it.
My dear sister, I never imagined that someone as timid as you could think of such a thing.
Hoshino Masato wanted to strike while the iron was hot and express his idea that Shimizu Rin, him, and Shimizu Setsukatsu should go to the company together the next day.
Rin Shimizu's firm and powerful voice came through.
"Don't worry, Xiaozhen. Tomorrow I'll go to the company with you and Auntie to see what's going on with Shimizu Kayu."
"That's great, sister!"
Hoshino Makoto laughed; he hadn't put in his full effort for this first performance.
He laughed from the bottom of his heart.
The mission is initially successful; now we just wait for tomorrow.
. . . . . .
Early morning, in bed.
"System, check-in!"
Hoshino Makoto sat on the bed, wondering what he would be able to sign in today.
[Congratulations, host, you have successfully checked in. Jade Bone +1]
A system voice sounded.
Makoto Hoshino: ∑(O_O;)
If it's not a system, then what is Jade Bone?
It sounds like it's related to bones, which is a bit creepy.
Hoshino Makoto got out of bed and skillfully went to the bedroom mirror.
Looking at myself in the mirror.
Her dark, tousled hair clung messily to her fair forehead, and her bright, clear eyes were fixed on her reflection in the mirror.
And that strikingly pale face.
It seems like nothing has changed.
Could it be that the jade bone we saw today was added to the bone?
Hoshino looked at himself in the mirror and, seemingly unchanged, this thought came to mind unconsciously.
No, something seems to have changed.
Looking at himself in the mirror, Hoshino Makoto noticed that his demeanor seemed to have changed slightly.
The face is still the same face, and the eyes are still the same eyes.
But why does she always seem aloof and distant?
However, compared to Hoshino Makoto's outstanding small face, there is a sense of contrast no matter how you look at it.
Just then, the system's voice sounded again in Hoshino Makoto's mind.
[Congratulations, host, on successfully unlocking the special charm, Ice Skin and Jade Bones]
[Host panel is updating]
Update complete
Hoshino Makoto: [・_・?]
What happened? System, what are you babbling about?
[Panel update complete. Please click on the panel.]
A system notification popped up.
Hoshino Makoto subconsciously opened the panel.
[Host: Hoshino Makoto]
[Stamina: 3]
【Intelligence: 6】
【Charm: 8】
[Skills: Advanced (Cooking), Intermediate (Learning), Beginner (Acting, Cleaning)]
[Mood value: 150]
[Evil Value: Three Points]
【Special Charm: Fair Skin and Jade-like Bones (Handsome Tokyo boy, you were born to attract attention; wherever you stand, that's the center stage)】
See the annotation after the line at the very bottom, "Ice Skin and Jade Bones".
Makoto Hoshino: (* ̄︶ ̄)
"System, although you're a bit unreliable and don't always come through in crucial moments."
"But he's still quite honest."
[Host, you're shameless!]
"What are you saying? What are you talking about? I'm just expressing confidence."
Hoshino was no longer joking; he said seriously:
"System, what's this special charm, Ice Skin and Jade Bone? Is it a combination of the Ice Skin I checked in before and the Jade Bone I just checked in with?"
[The meaning is similar, except that "ice-like skin" and "jade bones" are just ordinary charms when separated, but when combined they can create a special charm and produce a special effect.]
"I see, I understand now."
Hoshino looked at the annotation following the description of her uniquely charming, fair skin and delicate bones.
Handsome Tokyo boy, you were born to attract attention; wherever you stand, that's the center stage.
Therefore, this is the special effect caused by the unique charm of ice-like skin and jade-like bones.
"System, can you turn this special effect off?"
Hoshino really wanted to turn off this special effect of having fair skin and delicate bones.
If he walks down the street, it might give him more emotional points.
But if everyone notices him, all eyes will be on him alone.
Hoshino Shin thought it best to forget about it.
[What you are thinking, host, is only recorded and displayed on the panel; it has no right to and cannot change it.]
"If I go out on the street with this special charm, won't I be like a monkey in a zoo, being watched by everyone?"
What a terrible metaphor!
"That's what the system said."
[Host, first of all, people's emotions when they see you and when they see a monkey are completely different. When they see you, they feel appreciation and liking; when they see a monkey, they feel novelty and interest.]
The system continued.
Secondly, this system is not a succubus system. While the special charm of "Ice Skin and Jade Bones" has special effects, it won't attract everyone; it depends on the individual.
"I see."
Hoshino Makoto nodded.
He thought the effect of this "ice-skin and jade-bone" was like some kind of rule.
It's the kind of effect where, no matter where you stand, your gaze will be drawn to people around you.
It doesn't seem particularly outrageous now.
At least when he walks down the street, he won't be the one everyone is looking at.
Hoshino was truly satisfied.
He got dressed and left the room.
