Charm

Mineta was in the hospital, calmly sitting in the VIP room while enjoying the scenery through the window of his room.

He had money, after all, so why should he stay in the standard room and stay with other people?

In this VIP room, he was able to do anything freely.

Still, he had to say that the aftermath of the problem last night was quite troublesome.

The ringing on his phone never stopped.

All his girlfriends called him, and even his parents wanted to visit him, but he told them he was alright. He even showed the wound on his right palm, telling them it was almost healed.

Yet when they saw his wound and heard how he received it, they had a scare. After all, they couldn't imagine how it felt to let his hand be stabbed by a blade. However, when they heard that he did it to protect someone, they could only look at him helplessly, but even so, it didn't stop their plan to visit him.

However, he fervently stopped them, telling them they should finish their internship well or do their job for his parents.

After all, this internship would be related to their future.

He also told them that it was better for him to rest alone and they would also meet each other after the internship, which made them shut their mouths. After that, they could only follow his words obediently and told him that they would meet him as soon as their internship ended.

"..."

Mineta rubbed his temple and wondered how he should handle the schedule when all of them wanted to meet him.

Still, the reason why he didn't want them to come was that he wanted to close the deal with Ryukyu and Nejire.

Nejire aside, he wanted to clear up Ryukyu, so she would make him even stronger.

His goal had become bigger.

He had to change this world.

He was going to erase all the bad people, villains, and people who broke the rules, leaving only all the kind-hearted people, making this world into heaven.

To do that, he had to become a god.

Last night's accident also made his goal even clearer since he knew that with such a lunatic in this world, the world wouldn't be peaceful.

And the world that was able to create such a lunatic was also sick.

Everything had to be fixed, and he was the only one able to fix it.

He looked at his system for a while and saw the number of his points. Then, he looked at his pharmaceutical (mastery) and thought that he might be able to create a drug to turn everyone in this world into a zombie.

But how did you control them?

He didn't have the power to control those zombies, and frankly, they weren't pleasing to the eyes.

So, in the end, everything had to return to the beginning.

Seduce more girls.

Even though he felt strange, he didn't care whether he was wrong or right again.

All he wanted was an absolute power where no one could fight him in this world.

As of now, he didn't have such a power, but soon, he believed he would have it.

He looked at his points, and there were at least 130,000 or more. While the sum was amazing, it was normal since his daily points were huge, especially when he got 3,000 points daily.

Yet...

'It's far from enough.'

While the rewards were amazing, having a stable income was even more amazing, so at this moment, he made a decision. He looked at the charm status and added another point, giving him 10 (+1) points of charm.

<Which part do you want to enhance?>

When one's charm reached ten points, one would be given a chance to beautify one part of their body.

It might seem strange, but you could see that there were people whose main charm was their eyes, lips, or something similar, right?

They might not seem as beautiful or handsome as others, but when they had one of those traits, they seemed more attractive than others.

In his case, it was like that since his eyes were extremely sharp and seductive.

He saw that there were many parts of his body that he could make even more attractive, from the nose, hair, skin, tongue, teeth, and many others. There was even something metaphysical such as a smile, frown, or sad face. However, he didn't care about any of them since he had made his decision about which part of his body he was going to enhance.

"Minoru! I have brought you the ohagi!"

Suddenly, someone entered his room cheerfully.

He looked at the person, who entered his room helplessly, and said, "Senpai, we're in the hospital. You shouldn't make too much noise."

"Sorry~ Sorry~."

However, Nejire didn't seem sorry at all. Instead, she naturally sat on the side of his bed and put down the box of ohagi that she had bought for him. Last night, he asked her to buy him an ohagi from a famous shop he asked for, and she bought it for him.

He thought that he would get it later in the evening, but she came so early in the morning.

As for what ohagi was, it was a Japanese sweet made with glutinous rice and regular rice.

"Look! Look! I have bought many flavors!"

When she opened the box, there were six ohagis on the box with various tastes, from normal sweet red bean, coconut, matcha, dark sesame, soybean flour, and roasted tea.

"Thanks, Senpai."

"It's okay. It's okay."

"Let me pay for it." He wanted to reach for his wallet, but Nejire quickly stopped him. "No! It's a treat from me! You can't reject it! If you reject it, I will get angry! Hmph! Hmph!"

He stared at Nejire for a moment before he nodded. "Thank you."

"No problem~."

Nejire smiled brightly before she looked at his palm, which was still covered by a bandage. Her heart ached, and she wanted to do something more for him.

"You're not going to go on patrol, Senpai?"

"No, it's okay. It's okay. Ryukyu told me that I could go to take care of you."

While Nejire was a student, she worked in Ryukyu's hero office. It was similar to a sidekick or an internship, but as a third-grade student, she didn't stay in school. Instead, she would mostly stay to do a hero activity, accumulating as much experience as she could.

However, no matter how much experience she accumulated, it was still horrible when she encountered last night's accident.

"Is that so?"

He wondered whether Ryukyu didn't feel worried about letting Nejire stay with him. He wanted to do his strategy, but he could think of anything. In the end, he thought of eating sweets since maybe it would give him inspiration. He was about to take the soybean powder ohagi, but Nejire suddenly pulled the box away.

"What are you doing?"

"Your hand hurts! I will feed you! Open your mouth! Ahhh!"

Nejire took the ohagi that Mineta wanted to take before she tried to feed him.

'Only one of my hands hurts.'

He was speechless, but he wasn't stupid enough to let go of this chance. "Ahh."

When she saw this, she couldn't look away from his lips. She felt that there was this strange feeling that made her want to kiss those lips. Yet she couldn't think of any of that, especially when he opened his lips and slowly bit the ohagi on Nejire's hand, somehow licking her finger lightly. Her body jolted, and a shiver ran through her spine. Her face was reddish as she stared into his eyes, which were as sharp as ever, making her realize that they were a man and a woman.
