When Seiji came back to his senses from [Visualization], it was already night time.
He checked the time. It was nine o 'clock … Fine, another nine hours had passed.
He missed dinner … and he was hungry.
He opened his system and found that his [Spiritual Power] increased by 6 points! It was 1 point more than the first time.
'Could it be that there's a proficiency bonus?' Seiji rubbed his chin.
The value of "Spiritual Power", together with the additional numbers, exceeded 20, but nothing new appeared.
After checking, Seiji closed his system, got up, stretched, and left the room.
When he walked to the dining room, he found a luxurious lunchbox on the table with a note under it.
[For Haruta Junior, please enjoy it gratefully. After eating, if it's not past 10 o 'clock, go to the Grand Mistress's study. She has something to say.] The note was written in elegant handwriting.
Seiji smiled.
"Thanks, Senpai."
Then, he sat down, opened the lunchbox, took out a pair of chopsticks, and began eating.
The lunchbox had a heat preservation function, so the food was still hot, and it naturally tasted delicious.
Seiji ate in silence.
Suddenly, a petite figure strolled in and looked at him with a strange look in her eyes.
It was Rona.
Seiji looked at her and met her gaze.
"You … also want to eat?"
The cat girl nodded.
Seiji picked up a fried egg.
The cat girl shook her head.
Seiji put down the fried egg and picked up a pork rib.
The cat girl still shook her head.
Seiji thought for a moment and remembered something. He looked at the corner of the third layer of the lunchbox.
He picked up a small dried salted fish.
The cat girl's cat ears trembled violently.
'She likes eating this … she's a cat girl, after all.'
He handed the dried salted fish to her.
Rona opened her mouth and bit the salted fish. She chewed it with a joyful expression.
'So cute!'
Seiji enjoyed the joy of feeding the cat girl.
Just as he was about to ask if he wanted another one, he saw the other party turn around and leave just like that.
For a moment, Seiji felt a little lonely.
Sigh, this person is really as free as a cat. He sighed in his heart and continued to eat alone.
After the meal.
When Seiji took the lunchbox to wash, Mai appeared.
"Let me do it. You go see Grand Mistress … it's getting late."
"Alright, thank you." Seiji handed the lunchbox to the maid. "What does the president want to say to me?"
"I don't know. I think it's probably to tell you some things about cultivation that you should pay attention to. "
Seiji nodded and left.
In the study on the third floor.
Seiji knocked on the door and entered.
"You're here, Haruta-kun." Summer Night looked at him.
"How long did you 'visualize' this time?"
"Nine hours … and about five or six minutes."
"There was no pause during this period … which means he didn't come back to his senses?"
"Yes."
Summer Night looked at his face for a long while and sighed wistfully.
"You're amazing, Haruta-kun."
Her words were filled with praise, as well as mixed emotions such as depression and disappointment that she felt far inferior.
Seiji scratched his face awkwardly. He couldn't think of how to respond to this.
Summer Night took a deep breath and calmed herself down.
"How do you feel right now? Do you feel very tired and dizzy … like that? "
"I feel fine. I'm just a little tired," Seiji said honestly.
"Hmm … it seems that you have a high tolerance for 'Visualization.' This is also a sign that you're talented in either spiritual sense or imagination." Summer Night blinked in surprise.
"However, I still recommend that you don't continue tonight. It's better for you to sleep normally. No matter how high your tolerance is, it's still necessary to have a good rest. "
Seiji nodded.
Since an expert said so, he decided to listen to her.
"Also, you mentioned spells earlier … I thought about it and felt that I could teach you some."
Spells! Seiji instantly became spirited.
"As long as I can make you my temporary Spirit-branded Retainer, you'll naturally be able to cast some spells with your bonded spirit's assistance, which is why I didn't want to teach you anything at first.
But since you brought it up yourself, I thought about it and felt that I might as well teach you … Although I don't think that you'll be able to learn it in such a short period of time, it's always better to start learning earlier. "
Summer Night paused for a moment.
"I intend to teach you a spell that almost all Spiritual Ability users must learn — [Body-strengthening Technique]."
[Body-strengthening Technique]! Seiji's eyes lit up at this.
He heard it just like that. He had been wondering how he should ask her about it, but now he got it without any effort at all.
"It's easy to guess from the name that it's a spell that strengthens one's physical abilities. It can give the spellcaster a power far greater than an ordinary person's.
It's one of the most basic and commonly used spells, but it's also one of the most profound spells. It's not difficult to learn it, but it's incredibly difficult to master it and use it at a high level. "
Seiji nodded in understanding.
It was just like playing an action or fighting game. Anyone could use the controller, and anyone could play the game. But even if the player chose the same character, an expert could easily surpass or instantly defeat a noob.
"This is some information for you to read, or you can call it a secret manual. Take it, and be careful not to tell anyone about it."
As she said this, Summer Night handed him a yellow booklet from Seiji Mukai.
Seiji took the booklet and flipped through it. He saw that it was filled with pictures and descriptions, and the descriptions were quite vivid.
"I don't feel like it's a secret manual. The so-called 'secret manual' should be more … old-fashioned, with complicated words and old-fashioned drawings, right? "
"There's that version as well. Do you want it?" Summer Night looked at him.
"Er … I'm just saying."
If there was a modern version to read, who would want to read an old-fashioned version!
"Although it doesn't feel like a secret manual, it's definitely a secret. Don't let anyone know about it," the Grand Mistress warned him in a serious tone.
"I'll be careful," Seiji responded in a serious tone.
"Take a look at the information tonight. Tomorrow morning … after breakfast, I'll start teaching you."
'A secret lesson from Grand Mistress?'
That sounded feasible!
"Understood! Thank you, President Wanhua! "Seiji smiled.
After that, he left the study.
He didn't immediately return to his room. Instead, he went to Shika Kagura's room to say goodnight.
After knocking on the door, he entered the room.
"Little Shi, are you ready to rest?"
"Not yet …"
"What are you doing?" Seiji glanced at the desk and saw that there was a book on it with something written on it.
Shika Kagura's face reddened slightly.
"I'm thinking … about writing a novel together with my brother."
"Oh, that's great! Have you thought of anything? "Seiji's interest was piqued.
"I've thought about some … but I don't think there's anything good …" Shika Kagura was a little embarrassed as she looked at the book on the desk.
"You've already written it? Can I take a look? "Seiji was in high spirits.
'What did this literary girl think of?' The more he thought about it, the more interested he became.
"Um …" Shika Kagura seemed a little shy.
Seeing this, Seiji almost said, "I'm really curious."
"Is it alright if I go over and take a look?"
As he said this, he tried to take a step forward.
Shika Kagura didn't stop him.
