Ryoshu delved into the depths of his thoughts. He meticulously sifted through the newly acquired information, methodically rearranging it in his mind. Despite the situation's complexity, his primary objective remained clear: deciphering and making sense of everything."It is highly likely... that this is the latest update from the game developers," he concluded, drawing upon his extensive knowledge of the game's mechanics to form his assessment.Once again, the resonant voice reverberated from the vast expanse of white."I am nearing the threshold of my capacity to endure Karmic repercussions... I must inform you that in the foreseeable future... the authority I granted you, the System, will temporarily cease to exist. To safeguard you, I had to intervene directly in the human realm. This intervention depleted a significant portion of my power... Along with it come severe penalties... the details of which are of no concern to you."With each passing moment, the resonance of the voice
Ryoshu's eyes met those of the person he had collided with, and he was captivated by her appearance. Her hair, as white as freshly fallen snow, cascaded around her face, framing rosy cheeks and delicate dimples. Yet, her eyes held his attention—bright crimson orbs that seemed to flicker like embers, casting a mesmerizing glow upon her features.Standing beside her was a boy with hair as blue as the sky on a clear summer's day. His eyes mirrored the transparency of calm waters, and despite his slender frame, there was an ethereal quality about him that surpassed mere physical beauty.Instantly recognizing the pair, Ryoshu realized he had encountered them countless times over the past six years."H-Haruki... thank you," the girl's voice trembled slightly, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment at the unexpected gesture of kindness from the blue-haired boy.In contrast to her visible fluster, Haruki remained composed, turning his attention to his friend with genuine concern."Don't menti
As Ryoshu hurried away, relieved that the confrontation had finally ended, he couldn't shake off the feeling of exhaustion that weighed heavily on him. The day's events had taken their toll, both physically and mentally. However, amidst the chaos, he was approached by Charlotte, her presence a soothing balm to his frayed nerves.Only then did Ryoshu notice Charlotte's subtle approach, having slipped away from the group unnoticed. With delicate grace, she brushed the dust from his clothes, her touch gentle and comforting. Her concern was evident as she inquired, "Are you alright... I apologize for Esther's behavior. She truly is kind-hearted... It's just that her temper can flare up at times... I hope you won't judge her too harshly."Ryoshu felt gratitude towards Charlotte, touched by her genuine empathy and compassion. Despite her noble status and the power she wielded, Charlotte remained humble and empathetic, valuing her friendships above all else.Charlotte's beauty, Ryoshu real
Despite Esther's recent advancement to an E-rank Awakener, Ryoshu couldn't help but acknowledge her newfound confidence. However, her facade quickly crumbled upon witnessing Ryoshu's lightning-fast reflexes in action."Hey, where do you think you're going? I haven't finished with you yet," she stammered, surprise lacing her words.Unperturbed by her protests, Ryoshu moved with agility, swiftly reclaiming his mask, which caught Esther off guard. As he concealed his face once more, he leveled a steady gaze at the disconcerted girl before him."Esther White," he pronounced firmly, his tone carrying a weight of significance.The mention of her full name caused Esther to visibly shudder, her signature white locks trembling with apprehension. "Are you... looking for trouble with me?" Ryoshu inquired calmly, his grip on her arms firm.Esther found herself paralyzed with fear, rendered speechless and unable to muster a response, her body rigid with tension.Ryoshu's steps echoed softly agains
Basking in the warmth of the bathtub, Ryoshu relished the sensation of relaxation washing over him with each passing moment. The soothing water enveloped his tired muscles, easing away the tension accumulated from days of relentless battles. In this rare moment of solitude, he allowed himself to drift, embracing the tranquility of the peaceful atmosphere that enveloped him.Meanwhile, Fumiya seized the opportunity to explore the surroundings, relishing the freedom of solitude away from the usual hustle and bustle of their shared adventures. With a sense of independence, he ventured outside to indulge in some quality time with his beloved master, cherishing the bond they shared.Emerging from his invigorating shower, Ryoshu stepped out of the room into the dimly lit hallway, lingering on the sensations of comfort and calmness.

Ryoshu stood at the reception desk, his eyes fixed on the digital display of his bank account balance. The numbers seemed to taunt him, teetering precariously close to zero. Accepting the room key from the apathetic receptionist, whose disinterested expression grated on his nerves, Ryoshu couldn't help but feel anxious about his financial situation."Thankfully, I still have just enough to cover it," he murmured, his voice betraying a hint of uncertainty.Navigating through the labyrinthine corridors of the hotel, Ryoshu finally reached the elevator. With a soft ding, the doors slid open, and he stepped inside, the cool metal of the buttons under his fingertips offering a fleeting sense of reassurance.

"I recall a few Guilds that have caught my eye for their potential in the future," Ryoshu contemplated aloud, his mind swirling with thoughts of financial strategy. "If I had a bit more capital on hand, paying that 80,000 RC fee wouldn't seem daunting."With a resolute determination, he swiftly accessed the official websites of these Guilds, immersing himself in a thorough examination of their available shares. Each click of the mouse brought him closer to understanding the investment landscape, and Ryoshu diligently transcribed the names of these Guilds into his worn notebook, a roadmap for his future dealings."Alright... I'll need to reach out to them later. But for now, my priority is to secure the funds required to acquire their shares," he resolved, his thoughts drifting towards the valuable Magic Crystals in his possession.Descending into the clandestine underbelly of the internet, Ryoshu delved into the shadowy realms of the black market in search of potential buyers for hi

The room was filled with the gentle strains of soothing music, creating a serene ambiance that washed away the day's worries.He closed his eyes.Ryoshu's thoughts returned to his earlier contemplations.
