Tokyo: Becoming the Perfect Male God Starting with a Rented Boyfriend

The next day, when Miyazawa Itsuki went out in the morning, he happened to bump into Tsukimi Sakuna, who was also leaving home.

Both sides were taken aback for a moment, then adopted a polite demeanor.

"Good morning, Miyazawa-kun."

"Good morning, what a coincidence, I didn't expect Tsukimi-san to be setting off at the same time."

"Yes, because I calculated that if I leave at this time after making breakfast, I can catch the tram just in time."

"Did Tsukimi-kun even take the time to make breakfast?" Miyazawa Itsuki asked, somewhat surprised.

He thought he was getting up early enough, but he didn't expect Tsukimi Sakura to be even more diligent than him.

"Just some simple food."

Tsukimi Sakuna gazed at Miyazawa Itsuki with hazy eyes.

"Miyazawa-kun lives alone, right? How do you manage breakfast?"

"I have bread from a convenience store."

"Is that enough?"

"It's enough for me. I occasionally buy vegetable salads or something to supplement my vitamins, so I shouldn't be lacking in nutrition."

Tsukimi Sakura looked puzzled.

Indeed, for a perfect superhuman like her, it's impossible to understand how crude a male high school student living alone can be in his attitude towards his life.

To avoid collapsing due to health issues, Miyazawa Itsuki at least still diligently buys bread to eat.

They are already living quite earnestly.

In the past, it was perfectly normal for him to skip breakfast altogether.

Tsukimi Sakura blinked and didn't continue talking about it.

The two were just neighbors, and she had no further grounds to comment on Miyazawa Itsuki's lifestyle.

Instead, they changed the topic.

"I asked my mother last night," Tsukimi Sakuna said. "Please don't worry about what she asked you to do for me at school, Miyazawa-kun. Just forget about it."

Why?

"If you get involved with me, Miyazawa-kun will have a lot of trouble at school."

"I don't want to cause any more trouble for Miyazawa-kun or Mom. I can handle things on my own."

Miyazawa looked at her.

The girl lowered her eyes, her posture pleading even though she was clearly thinking of others.

He thought for a moment, but didn't say anything like, "I don't think it's troublesome, please let me help you."

Tsukimi Sakura seems easy to talk to, but she actually seems to have her own stubbornness.

I don't want to owe anyone anything, and I try my best to avoid causing trouble for others.

Last night at Tsukimi's house, he felt the softer side of Tsukimi Sakura.

Once outside the house, Miyazawa Itsuki felt more clearly that Tsukimi Sakuna had become the polite but aloof saintess from the rumors.

It's so close, yet it feels so far away.

"I understand. I'll keep my distance from Tsukimi at school." Miyazawa Itsuki nodded. "But if you encounter any difficulties, you can tell me."

"Yes, thank you, Miyazawa-kun." Tsukimi Sakuna smiled gently.

"Well then, Tsukimi-kun, you should go ahead now. To avoid people guessing we live in the same apartment building, we might need to avoid going out in the future."

After a moment of silence, Tsukimi Sakuna said softly, "Then I'll be going now."

She bowed slightly to Miyazawa Itsuki, then turned and left.

The figure with light chestnut-brown hair disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Miyazawa glanced at his watch and silently set a five-minute countdown.

With nothing else to do, I casually opened the panel and logged into the redemption list.

The weekly refreshed exchange list has added new skills and items. He hadn't had a chance to check it yesterday.

Name: Miyazawa Itsuki

Points Balance: 5280

[Skills: Shorthand LV2, Calligraphy LV2, Knife Skills LV2, Baking LV2, Driving LV2, Photography LV1, Basketball LV1, Appliance Repair LV1...]

[Special Ability: A hatchet is useless against me, Casanova's Eye]

[Special Item: Passerby A's Glasses]

[Exchange List (Skills): Racing LV1, Chess LV1, Street Fighting LV1]

[Exchange List (Items): Energy Replenishing Potion, Focus Potion, Running Shoes]

Miyazawa Itsuki's gaze swept over the array of goods.

Racing? Can renting a boyfriend really be related to this sport?

If it were simply about driving, he would have been an experienced driver in his past life, not to mention now that he has LV2 driving skills.

Chess is also a double-edged sword; in Japan, chess has a very small audience.

Even in Go or Shogi, he would give it a second thought.

However, the remaining two are completely different.

Miyazawa Itsuki's eyes twitched slightly.

Street fighting techniques.

This is a vague concept, not a standardized martial arts style, but a series of techniques used for survival and self-defense in unregulated street conflicts.

In layman's terms, it's the art of fighting.

"This is really rare. Is my luck finally turning around?"

After several months, I finally got another skill related to combat power.

In past refreshes, there haven't been many offensive skills.

Miyazawa once managed to get a level 2 Muay Thai weapon, but had to give up because of its high price.

Later, another skill with the words "fist technique" appeared, but when I clicked on the details, I found that it was just a fitness exercise.

It's just that the name and the connection to ancient boxing techniques are far-fetched.

Among the vast array of human skills, accurately mastering martial arts techniques undoubtedly requires a great deal of luck.

Especially for those that are precisely crafted to LV1 level, the price won't be too high and deter him from buying them.

Miyazawa Itsuki clicks on [Street Fighting Skills LV1] to view the point price.

Price: 3000 points

Although he had some expectations, he was still somewhat surprised when he saw the price.

This price exceeds that of a considerable number of LV2 skills.

But that makes sense, since violence is often the ultimate solution to many problems.

It is also a source of confidence for self-protection.

Miyazawa Itsuki had decided to exchange for the street fighting technique, but instead of buying it immediately, he turned his attention to the next section.

Props/items.

Unlike items and skills, they are inherently unique, essentially weaker versions of superpowers.

Therefore, the price is also very high. (Except for consumables.)

Energy replenishment potions and focus potions are frequent items on the exchange list.

The former replenishes energy and relieves fatigue.

The latter allows him to concentrate fully on one thing, improving his learning efficiency.

That alone might not be enough to qualify it as a system item. The most crucial thing is that the Focus Potion can increase the upper limit of skill experience acquisition to a certain extent.

When you encounter a skill that you want to level up quickly, Focus Potion is currently the only thing that can help.

Since most of the time, the exchange pool doesn't offer the skills he wants, Miyazawa Itsuki chooses to hoard potions.

Limited to one bottle at a time, over time he has accumulated seven or eight bottles of focus potion in his backpack.

He looked at the last prop.

[Special Item: Running Shoes]

[Effect: When worn, running speed is increased by 15% and stamina consumption is reduced by 20%. Gains one "Temporary Sprint" skill, instantly increasing speed to 200%, with a 24-hour cooldown.]

[Note: Wearing straw sandals gives you a feeling of flying.]

Price: 2500
