The Paradise of Reincarnation Begins with Eriri

The weekend passed by in a flash.

For the past two days, breakfast, lunch, and dinner have all been prepared by Megumi Kato.

Not only that, the house was also transformed without anyone noticing.

There wasn't much to say during the day. Neither Kiyono Makoto nor Kato Megumi were the type to enjoy going out. The two of them stayed quietly at home, playing games and watching TV together. Despite it being their first time living together, there was absolutely no awkwardness.

After waiting for it to get dark, the two of them went out together to go for a run with their senior and Eriri. However, after being burned once, Eriri refused to accept water magic treatment again.

"...Finally, I can draw cards again."

On the park track, seeing that the gashapon machine had cooled down, Kiyono Makoto suddenly stopped.

"Seven whole days felt like seven years."

Kiyono Makoto eagerly rubbed his hands together and decisively chose to draw a card.

The gashapon machine in my mind started humming, and countless dazzling abilities flashed by: time stop, invisibility, magnetic field manipulation, catching blades bare-handed, minotaur powerhouse, golden kidney warrior, iron legs that can walk on water...

puff!

A few seconds later.

A stream of light shot out from the gashapon machine and condensed into a dazzling ability card in Kiyono Makoto's mind.

Chapter 35 Ability: Entry Stealing!

"A dazzling ability card?"

Kiyono Makoto's heart suddenly raced.

I've never even won a "buy one get one free" promotion before, but now I've miraculously won a single draw and gained a superpower of the dazzling level?

Can a wish made by a book lover to remain single for thirty years really bring about a miracle?

Click.

The dazzling ability card quietly shattered, transforming into countless streams of light that entered Kiyono Makoto's soul.

A sudden realization dawned on me.

[Ability Card: Ability Stealer]

[Card Tier: Chroma]

[Note: Everything has its own set of attributes; you can plunder all attributes and add them to yourself or other items.]

[Note 1: After looting an item, the original item will be destroyed.]

[Note 2: Everything has its limits. The number of attributes an item can hold is directly proportional to its quality. Once an item reaches its capacity limit, no new attributes can be added.]

Thump thump.

Makoto Kiyono could clearly hear his heart pounding.

Although the introduction is simple, a little thought reveals that this ability is incredibly powerful and fully deserving of its dazzling quality.

While daily intelligence is very useful, it is not controllable. However, the ability to steal keywords can be quickly converted into combat power.

"Stay calm, don't rush."

Seino Makoto took a deep breath:

"Let's think about how to use this ability..."

There is a limit to the number of entries that items and bodies can carry. If you think about it carefully, it makes sense. Even the universe has its limits, but there will always be other items.

"In this way, we must filter the entries; we can't accept everything."

"There are two tentative goals."

"One is to strengthen itself with terms."

"The other is to use abilities to create powerful weapons and equipment that integrate multiple terms."

The reason is very simple.

Taking competitive games as an example, a level 15 player who doesn't buy equipment may not necessarily be able to beat a level 1 player with full god-tier equipment.

As a player, cultivating both inner and outer strength is the key to success; there's no need to distinguish between external factors and one's own inner self, at least not at this stage.

"On the player forum, there is a junk-picking area... Just like in real life, the equipment and props in the park have durability. Once the durability reaches zero, the item is either scrapped or requires a lot of points to repair."

"Many players are short on funds and can't afford repair points, so they put their items up for sale at low prices... Is it possible to plunder the attributes of these items?"

Can the attributes of one-time consumable items be stolen?

"..."

"Huh...huh..."

As I was pondering this, I heard the sound of a girl panting heavily behind me.

A blonde girl with twin tails came running up, panting. It was Eriri.

"Kiyono... why did you suddenly stop?"

Seino Makoto collected his thoughts and turned to look at Eriri:

"I'm contemplating life."

"what?"

"Life is a magnificent robe, crawling with fleas..."

"I don't know who said that, but I saw it online before." Eriri crossed her arms and couldn't help but scold her, "Don't you dare plagiarize other people's work."

Kiyono Makoto didn't say anything, but his gaze involuntarily fell on Eriri's head.

Several entries of different colors floated quietly.

[Art Club Ace (Purple)]

[Veteran visual novel player (blue)]

[Loser (Blue)]

[Athletic Loser (White)]

Kiyono Makoto slightly twitched the corner of his mouth, unable to resist making a mental rant:

"...Loser is actually an entry?"

"So, he was destined to be a loser after all!"

[...Expand the entry?]

A notification popped up quietly in front of Kiyono Makoto's eyes.

"Yes."

Kiyono silently thought to himself that having gained new superpowers, he naturally had an endless desire to explore.

[Entry: Art Club Ace]

Color: Purple

[Note: After acquiring this entry, you will gain exceptional drawing skills, enough to become an ace in any high school art club.]

"Hey, is there something on my head?"

Eriri looked up in confusion, gazing at the sky above.

There's nothing there.

Kiyono Makoto silently looked away.

I told Eriri and my senior about my ability to obtain daily information because I needed to gain their trust in order to work together to clear the game. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to explain the source of the information.

However, Makoto Kiyono did not intend to reveal the ability of "Entry Stealer".

Although everyone is familiar with each other, they are far from being 100% trusting, so naturally they have to keep their cards close to their chest.

"Keep running." Kiyono Makoto blinked, and the phrase above Eriri's head disappeared with his thought, which was quite convenient. "Senpai's stamina has improved, now it's just a matter of you."

"Stop nagging..."

Eriri, panting, continued running:

"Don't talk while running..."

A moment later.

Kiyono Makoto catches up with Kasumigaoka Utaha and, out of curiosity, begins to observe the entry.

Several keywords quickly popped up above the senior student's head.

[Literary Girl (Blue)]

[Top Student (Purple)]

【Giant O (Blue)】

【Auspicious and Beautiful (Purple)】

[Parenting Expert (Blue)]

What is a parenting expert?

Kiyono Makoto curiously opened the entry.

[Parenting experts: During breastfeeding, XX (a specific type of breast milk) provides more ample and richer nutrition, significantly boosting the baby's immunity]

"...After all, the senior is exceptionally talented, so it's not an exaggeration for her to possess this entry."

Kiyono Makoto's gaze shifted downwards, eventually landing on his senior's chest, a gesture of approval.

Even though the older sister was wearing a loose sweatshirt, her beautiful curves were still clearly visible, so the child would definitely not go hungry.

"What are you looking at, junior?" Kasumigaoka Utaha turned her head and looked over, her eyes slightly narrowed. "Your gaze is suddenly a little unsettling. Are you thinking about something lewd?"

"No, I didn't," Kiyono Makoto would of course deny. "I sped up."

It was already nine o'clock at night.

My running and fitness routine has come to an end once again.

"Kiyono-kun, have some water."

Kato Megumi handed her a bottle of energy drink.

"Thank you."

Kiyono Makoto thanked him while curiously looking up at Kato's head.

Several entries quietly emerged.

[All-rounder for housework (blue)]

[Unperturbed by Favor or Disgrace (Purple)]

[Presence Adjustment (Purple)]

【Dark-hearted (Blue)】

"...'Cunning' is even considered an entry?"

Kiyono Makoto thought to himself, but his gaze couldn't help but fall on Kato Megumi's calm and cute face.

Senior doesn't have the "scheming" attribute, but Kato Megumi does, so... Megumi is even more terrifying when she gets scheming?

"Let's go home."

Kiyono Makoto drank half a bottle of beverage in one gulp, and then left the park with Kato Megumi.

On the way back, Kiyono Makoto activated his epigraphic observation ability and observed everything around him.

Everything in the world does indeed have its own entries, but white and blue entries are the most common, while purple entries are actually quite rare.

In addition, the types of entries are incredibly diverse and abundant, with some entries even being quite bizarre, such as "[Husband's previous offense doubles combat power]"...

Speechless all the way.

Kiyono Makoto and Kato Megumi returned home safely, but the werewolf player still hadn't appeared.

"Kiyono-kun, the bathwater is ready." Kato Megumi walked out of the bathroom, her voice calm. "You can go take a bath now."
