Chapter 3 - Busted and Bunker Construction

In a Universe, in a galaxy, In a solar system, In a planet, In a continent, In a country, In a town, In a house, In a bathroom, there we see a teenage muta-, I mean teenage man with a messy red hair staring at his self at his house's bathroom mirror, it looked like the man was checking himself.

[3rd Person View]

"Damn i look so fine, if I was a girl then I would surely date me" The narcissistic teenage man said to himself while checking his body in every nook or cranny. This man is Zahard, and he just finished taking a bath.

[ Cease your delusions Zahard, just because you can't get a lover doesn't mean you have to forcefully compliment yourself just to feel love, or self love in this case. ]

"Shut up Scáthach, this delusional man will get himself a breathtaking beauty one day, just you wait." Zahard declared in response to Scáthach's insult whilst reaching out for his deodorant.

[ We'll see, by the way... I searched your memory last night when you were sleeping. ]

"Uh huh? I'm going to pretend that I didn't hear you say that you searched my memory last night without my permission and ask, did you find anything that interested you then?" Zahard said while trying to open the deodorant.

[ I saw a memory of you watching an anime series called the Fate Series, or people like to call it, the Nasuverse. ]

"Uh huh... Continue," Zahard said, finally succeeding in opening the deodorant.

[ In one of the series you have watched, I saw myself in them. ]

'Oh fuck.... I forgot about that part.... Shit....' Zahard thought to himself while mentally swearing.

[ So I assume that the "book" where you learned my title doesn't exist. ]

"You bet!" Zahard said while smiling brightly, though Scáthach was also smiling.... but menacingly.

[ I'm going to ignore the fact that you lied to me about that, I then continued to search your memories... And then I ended up seeing one interesting memory.... ]

"Uh huh...." Zahard suddenly felt nervous as he was sweating buckets, although he doesn't know the reason.

[ In that memory, you were in your bedroom masturbating to something in your phone.... I then saw what you were looking at in your phone, and do you know what i saw? ]

'If only i knew this would've happened then i wouldn't have done that y'know?' Zahard was furiously sweating now, his nervousness turned into extreme anxiety.

[ It was a picture of me, with my entire body deprived of clothing. ]

"Hey you can't blame me, most men masturbates to beautiful girls, what more when the girl is an absolute sexy beauty like you are?" Zahard said straightforwardly whilst reaching out the deodorant he dropped earlier.

"Plus, you originally don't exist in here but only a character in an anime as you might've already guessed, those pictures were just art made by artists." added Zahard.

[ That is true but... Flattery won't get you anywhere with me Zahard, you are still thousands of years away from successfully flir-] Before Scáthach finished what she was going to say, Zahard cut her off by saying...

"Eh? I was serious though." Zahard said seriously

'She really is a Sexy beauty, I am not going to lie, words aren't enough to describe her beauty. No matter how much words you add to properly honor her beauty, it won't be enough.'

What Zahard doesn't know when he was thinking that, was that Scáthach was reading his mind right from the start of the conversation but never mentioned it.

Scáthach was now thinking whether he read his mind correctly or not, when she finally realized that he was serious, she couldn't help but smile a little, and if you closely... You would've seen a faint blush in face. If Zahard saw this then he would be shocked and he would've gotten dazed from the smiling and blushing beauty.

"Scáthach? Are you there?" Zahard asked, he was wondering why Scáthach didn't answer for a few minutes.

[ A-Ah?! Of course im here, I was just processing whether you were lying or not. ]

"Heh, Don't you know that I have never lied in my life except when im doing an exam?" Zahard shamelessly boasted, its like he was proud of it.

[ So you're boasting the fact that you cheated on your exams? ] However, Scáthach was still wearing her smile from before.

Scáthach could see people's traits or characteristics, she could see Zahard's traits and character that made her nod in agreement with what she saw. She saw what Zahard's heart was like... Zahard would even willingly, throw himself to a sea of flames if he could gain the ability to protect those who he loves. Scáthach then wondered what made him like this, what has happened to him before?

'I guess he'll tell me in due time...' Scáthach then sighed.

"If only you knew how hard examinations are in this world, you definitely would've cheated if you were in my position" Zahard retorted.

[ My pride doesn't let me step that low, unlike you Zahard. ]

"Well, I guess I better take a look at the schematic and use it so I could have a safe haven by the time doomsday arrives..." Zahard then finished shaving his non-existent beard. He never had any beard in the first place, he just likes doing it for no particular reason.

<30 minutes of Zahard watching anime>

"Hey Scáthach, I assume that you are able to get out of the system by will, seeing as how you were able to point Gaebólg in my neck yesterday through the system HUD," Zahard asked.

[ Well I could do that, but I don't have any reason to do so whatsoever. ]

"Well, so you could appreciate the world before the doomsday countdown ends?" Zahard answered.

[ I believe I have seen everything this world has to offer with my own two eyes. ]

"Oh come on, I don't think it would be that bad, just give it a go, I'll take you to places you've never seen before," Zahard urged Scathach.

[ Well, if you so insist then I suppose, why not? ]

After Scáthach finished her sentence, an Ultra pro max plus bright light shined from the System HUD

"Damn it, why didn't I make the system HUD disappear again?!" Zahard asked his stupidity.

The Ultra pro max plus bright light then began to subside.

When the light completely disappeared, It revealed a woman with long beautiful purple hair, and red breathtaking eyes wearing a full body outfit that complimented her curvaceous and fit body, she also wore a black veil and a short hood over her shoulder that has metallic pads on it, this was Scáthach.

Zahard was completely taken off guard, he didn't expect that Scáthach would be this gorgeous and beautiful in front, he was completely in a state of daze as he marvelled the beauty in front of her, he managed to say a few words while he was dazed, and they were...

"Truly... A sight to behold..." Zahard said while completely being dazed

Scáthach chuckled when she heard what Zahard said, he looked really mesmerized.

"You like what you're seeing Zahard?" Scáthach said teasingly to Zahard.

"10/10, I can die in peace now." Zahard said as he collected himself.

"Heaven and hell won't accept you if you die so I don't recommend it" Scáthach told Zahard.

"Is that an advice or an insult?" Zahard asked Scáthach.

"Both" Scáthach answered Zahard.

"An advice it is then," Zahard the nodded in agreement to himself.

"Take it as you will Zahard," Scáthach said.

'3rd Ascension Scáthach huh?' Zahard pondered.

"How much money did that Ultra max pro plus bright light cost you by the way?" Zahard asked Scáthach curiously.

"A million dollars..." Scáthach answered.

"Damn!" Zahard was shocked with the cost.

"You should change what you're wearing. If we go outside while you're wearing that, combined with your beauty, it would be definitely troublesome, i think my mother's clothing will fit on you," Zahard told Scáthach.

'Especially those with dicks for brains that will inevitably come and flirt with Scáthach, I guess ill get ready to make some men infertile forever.' Zahard thought to himself.

Scáthach then froze for a few second and then smiled which Zahard didn't see as he was focused in planning on whether to use his legs or hands to make the men who will undoubtedly make trouble, infertile.

Scáthach then broke Zahard thoughts by asking "So where did you store your mother's clothes?"

"Ah! On the free bedroom next to mine, there were already 2 bedrooms in this house when I bought it." Zahard answered Scáthach in a gloomy manner as he remembered his parents, melancholy enveloped Zahard for a few seconds.

Zahard's sudden mood change wasn't missed by Scáthach though, Scáthach then went upstairs in the house to the Room next to Zahard's and proceeded to change.

"While waiting for Scáthach, maybe I should try to find something I should do... Ah! I got an ||Inventory Function Key|| from my ||Starter Pack|| right?! I should probably use it now."

'System use ||Inventory Function Key||'

[ Do you want to use ||Inventory Function Key||? ]

[ Y/N? ]

'Yes'

[ Using the ||Inventory Function Key||..... ]

[ Congratulations! You have unlocked a new Function! ]

[ Inventory has now been unlocked! ]

"Sweet! but how did it process my command without Scáthach inside it.... Oh nevermind, she has an assistant in the System," Zahard then opened his Inventory.

"Heheh..... Just what I need to make some men impotent if they make a move to Scáthach today..." Zahard said while smiling menacingly, if anyone could see Zahard right now then they would see a visible dark aura coming from him.

"Let's see.... I should check my profile, I didn't check that function yet"

"I don't know if Scáthach secretly entered the system again just to mess with the ratings of my statistics or its just the system itself..." said Zahard as he shook his head.

"All of these skills are definitely useful, but... What kind of doomsday scenario are we even talking about here? I mean... I have my underground bunker schematic ready, I just have to place it somewhere ideal and get the materials needed for it, that is... If its a radiation based doomsday scenario." (E.x: Nuclear War, Meteor Impact, Etc...)

"If its a zombie apocalypse scenario then I guess these skills are useful but not recommendable..."

"Ughhh, I'll worry about that later when it comes, for now I should try and build the bunker in my backyard but I don't know whether its going to affect the neighbourhood hahahaha"

Zahard then went to his backyard and brought out his ||Upgradeable bunker schematic||

"So how should I do this? do I also have to mentally say 'use?' or do I just casually place it?"

[ Do you want to use ||Upgradeable bunker schematic?|| ]

'Yes'

[ Using the ||Upgradeable bunker schematic||.... ]

"Wait... System, I thought it needs materials?" Zahard asked the system.

[ It does need materials Selected host: Zahard, and it just so happens that your house itself has the enough materials needed for construction, therefore your house will be used for the bunker construction. ]

"WAIT, WHAT THE FUCK?!"

[ I recommend Selected host: Zahard, to gather your important belongings outside your house in case it disappears alongside the house... ]

"WAIT, WHAT DO YOU ME-" Before Zahard finished what he was going to say, The system cut him off by saying...

[ Time left until Bunker construction begins: 10m/50s ]

"WAIT! SCÁTHACH!!!" Zahard quickly entered the house to gather his belongings and called Scáthach.

"Why are you screaming?!" Scáthach then went outside the spare room of the house.

Scáthach was now wearing jeans and a yellow turtleneck.

Zahard didn't have enough time to appreciate Scáthach's new look as there is only 9 minutes left till the house gets used for the bunker.

"Quick! help me gather all of my belongings! this house is going to get used for the Bunker schematic that I got last time!" Zahard quickly informed Scáthach about their current predicament.

"Just use the inventory and suck all of your belongings in it Zahard, don't panic immediately." Scáthach told Zahard, which then caused him to freeze and smile wryly because of embarrassment for not thinking of that earlier.

"Sorry, I forgot, teehee!" Zahard did a disgusting dialogue and pose so the author beat the shit out of him.

<9 minutes of Scáthach watching Zahard run everywhere on the house, trying to get every belonging he has, later>

"Finally! Let's go outside quickly Scáthach!" Zahard then held Scáthach's hands, which caused a slight blush appear on her face as she is being dragged outside by Zahard.

Scáthach could only smile at Zahard while being dragged outside Zahard's now former home.

[ Time left until Bunker Construction begins: 5s ]

[ 5.... ]

[ 4.... ]

[ 3.... ]

[ 2.... ]

[ 1.... ]

[ Construction is now ongoing, time left until completion: 8h/30m/1s ]

"And... there goes my house," said Zahard as he watched his former house disappearing into thin air as if it was never there.

[ Casting an illusion in the surrounding area to avoid unnecessary disturbance in the town... ]

"Oh... How convenient!" Zahard complimented the system

"I know, that's why im glad im its Overseer, I don't need to do anything except be the one to roll the Gacha when im inside it." Scáthach said as she nodded her head in agreement with Zahard's compliment to the system.

"Uh.... Okay?"

"Anyways, while we are waiting, it's still 8:30 am and the construction will end at 5:00 pm afternoon." said Zahard.

"Well, let's go on touring then, the town im in right now is close to Kyoto so we will head there, let's watch a movie then, actually... I'll show you everything you haven't seen with your own two eyes!" Zahard told Scáthach as he dragged me onwards to Kyoto.

Zahard and Scáthach then proceeded to head to Kyoto.

Magic...
