"well let's try it" he said and active the technique, suddenly he felt heavy and couldn't move, as if something in him move and prevent him from moving

well they are level 1 so it's not much, but when it's reached level 100? maybe beyond? there isn't a limit anyway, so he can't tell
moments later he filled into meditation position, not knowing his door was opened
"Naruki? I brought sweets, hmm?" Judy opened the door, but saw her son meditate and asleep?
"huh, I never thought you can sleep that way...I might try it..hehe will he became a monk? nooo I want grandkids, monk don't have that!" she hmphed and closed the door.. gently leaving him to his devices
"...it's only because I new to this, but I waked up by her, but that raise a serious problem.." Naruki opened his eyes and said, "...I need to find a solution for that problem ... well grind come first!" he muttered and continuing meditation in peace
/scene changing/
next day 6:00am , "wake up! if you don't wake up~~~ I'll kiss you~~" the alarm Naruki put for shit and giggles rang waking up refreshed , "who knew mediating is way better than sleep?..but the previous problem is still a concern... well I think about it later..." he stretch his limbs and looked at his alarm in amusement, "using the mc alarm...how ironic.." he smiled wryly and cancel the alarm

his dad joined and the 3 begin to eat breakfast
"so Naruki, when will you get a girlfriend?" he asked casually
this caused Naruki to cough, "why would ask, dad?" he asked after drinking orange juice
"well you are a 17 old virgin, your old man is disappointed." Haruki shook his head
"your father is right Naruki, it's not like your aren't good looking, especially with you rare ruby eyes." Judy said while eating some salad, "how about Ise-chan? she is a good girl, a bit bold if you ask me, Irina-chan liked you too, but too bad her family went to England... you could have flex with two girlfriends hohoho" judy giggled like a high class British
"well I'm not in hurry, I believe my spring will come soon." he drinks the grape-lemon tea he has in calmness, 'besides I don't think anyone would still with one girlfriend in this world, hell even if one wants he couldn't with the sheer unbalanced male to female ratio in cast characters' he thought
"hehe, my boy is confident, be prepared tho, women will give you a big headach- owowowoe, sorry honey Don't pull my eearrr" Judy pulled Haruki ear in annoyance and scoffed, "while your father is jerk, he isn't wrong, don't let any lass lead you on."
"ahem, so did you decide on what to do in the future?" Haruki asked
"yeah, I do." Naruki smiled, "I'll be ...a mangaka." he smiled seeing the surprised look on their faces
