*Sunday, 8 AM*
"Hoowaah~" Akira yawned, feeling tired after getting home late last night following a motorcycle ride with Yuri around Tokyo. "Let's see what rewards the others got from the mission."
[Akira: Good morning, everyone.]
He sent the message and, fortunately, didn't have to wait long for a reply.
[Yukihime: Good morning. Where were you last night? We waited for a long time to open the rewards together.]
[Akira: Sorry, but I went for a ride around the city with Yuri, and we got home at 2 AM.]
[Asuna: Is Yuri-san okay? Your world is very different from the Tower.]
Asuna was obviously concerned about Yuri's health, worried she might get sick or something due to the drastic change in her environment.
[Akira: She's doing fine and says she's enjoying her freedom. She feels like hidden chains that bound her have finally disappeared since leaving the Tower.]
Their outing wasn't just for fun. They talked about many things, gaining a mutual understanding of each other.
[Akira: By the way, what rewards did you get yesterday?]
Akira was genuinely curious, as he hadn't asked what they received last time.
[Yukihime: I got a Zanpakutō: Sode no Shirayuki. It's an ice-type sword with a consciousness of its own.]
[Asuna: As for me, I received Fire God Slayer Magic. Last time, I got Twilight Healing, a Sacred Gear specialized in healing.]
[Akira: That's awesome! With these rewards, your strength should increase significantly in a short time.]
Akira was genuinely happy for Asuna and Yukihime, feeling that these rewards would make their team safer during future missions.
[Akira: Well, then, it's my turn to see what I got.]
After speaking, Akira pressed the reward button in the corner of the screen.
[Do you want to open the random reward?]
[Y/N]
Without hesitation, he pressed Y, feeling a surge of excitement to see what he would receive.
[Ding! Congratulations on opening a random reward and obtaining: The End.]
"…," Akira closed his eyes, absorbing all the information about The End.
"The End is incredibly powerful, and combining it with my other abilities will make it nearly unbeatable," he murmured with a small smile, recognizing The End as an extremely potent power.
The End allows him to copy others' abilities simply by seeing them, even using the copied abilities at 120% of their original strength—a phenomenal advantage.
Although The End can't replicate abilities dependent on bloodlines or unique physical traits, it is still incredibly powerful.
[Akira: I got a new ability called The End, which lets me copy any ability I see, except for those reliant on bloodline or unique physical traits.]
[Yukihime: That's amazing! The ability to copy others' powers just by seeing them—I've never heard of such a thing before.]
Though Yukihime had lived for 700 years, this was the first time she had come across something like this. She knew of gifted individuals who could learn martial arts from a single glance, but no one had ever been able to replicate another person's unique abilities just by seeing them.
[Asuna: I feel like it won't be long before Akira-kun stops being human.]
Asuna couldn't help but feel concerned, as great power often brought trouble for its wielder.
[Akira: No need to worry. I'm not human, after all.]
Even though the system classified him as High Human, Akira saw himself as a Vampire, so he wasn't too concerned if his abilities seemed beyond human, since he didn't consider himself one.
[Asuna: That's not what I meant, Akira-kun.]
Asuna sighed in concern, realizing Akira took everything as a joke.
[Akira: No need to worry, Asuna. I'm still the same, and gaining new powers won't change me. I like my lazy self just the way I am.]
Akira couldn't help but smile wryly at Asuna's concern, unable to understand why she worried over something so trivial.
It's true that many people have lost their sanity after acquiring power, but Akira had a strong mind and was too lazy to go mad, seeking world domination or some other boring goal.
Destroy the world? Seriously, don't you have anything better to do than such a stupid and pointless act?
That was Akira's response to anyone who tried to destroy the world, as he found no meaning in such a foolish endeavor.
[Akira: Alright, I'm off now. I promised Yuri I'd train with her, and she's probably waiting for me in the training area.]
[Asuna: Don't bully Yuri-san too much.]
[Yukihime: Don't go overboard and crush the girl's fighting spirit.]
"…" Akira stared at the messages that appeared simultaneously, his mouth twitching slightly. He wanted to object, as he wasn't the type to be harsh on others—though enemies were an exception.
Ignoring the girls' messages, he stood up, changed into his training clothes, and headed to the underground training facility, where Yuri was likely waiting, as he had promised her a training match yesterday.
