After school.
Just as Seiji was about to be surrounded by all the gossipy girls, his cell phone rang.
He picked up the call and used the excuse that he had business to attend to and speedily left the school.
When he arrived outside the school, he saw Mai holding an umbrella.
"How do you feel after receiving a chocolate from Grand Mistress?" The maid grinned.
"Of course I'm happy." Seiji felt rather awkward.
"Are you surprised that Grand Mistress actually gave it to you in front of everyone?"
"Yes …"
"Actually, I was the one who persuaded her to do so." Mai smiled. "This way, no girls will dare to get close to you in the future."
Seiji was rendered speechless.
"This is my share. Thank you for always helping Grand Mistress, Haruta -san." Mai handed him a chocolate box. "Please take good care of me in the future as well."
"Thank you …" Seiji accepted it with a subtle expression.
Then, the maid turned around and left in the direction of the student council president's residence.
Seiji also returned home with the chocolate he received.
Later that night.
Saki arrived at Seiji's apartment.
The editor first gave him a gift for his first visit, and then she gave him her and Mayuzumi's chocolate. Seiji gratefully accepted it.
"Brother Monogatari's sales are doing very well. It's still selling like hotcakes, and the readers are responding very well," Saki told him. "With such a situation, we can already start considering the second volume."
Seiji exchanged glances with Little Shi upon hearing this.
"Actually, we're already working on the second volume." He smiled. "Although it's not finished yet, if I do my best, I should be able to finish it in no time at all."
Saki blinked upon hearing this.
"Can I take a look at the portion that's already been completed?"
"Of course."
Seiji invited her into his study and showed her the second volume's draft.
The editor began reading it quickly and seriously.
A while later.
Saki heaved a sigh of relief as she looked at Seiji Mukai with a gentle smile.
"It's well-written. The current portion is just as good as the first volume.
You'll feel that it's even better than the first volume after it's finished. "
Seiji responded with a confident smile.
"I look forward to it. You don't need to rush, but of course it's better to finish it as soon as possible. "
"Understood."
Saki then gave her own opinion on the story.
Seiji nodded in acceptance and expressed his own thoughts as well. He then called Shika over for a discussion.
The editor and author … The three passionately discussed for a long time in order to make "Brother Monogatari" even more interesting.
After the editor left, Seiji left, and went back to his room to take a shower.
He opened his system up and checked his system.
The chocolates he received today brought him a large number of points and many items as rewards!
Seiji. Seiji once again, Seiji, to see that he received.. Seiji. up. up. up up up up. was up up. was really. with.
Seiji was truly grateful for this bountiful harvest, and once again sincerely thanked everyone in his heart for their kindness.
Seiji took a quick look and decided to take a closer look later. Seiji then checked his rewards.
He discovered that apart from the continuous increase in points and random draw card shards, there was also something new.
[Brother Monogatari character reward card shard!]
Seiji widened his eyes and hurriedly checked his system's explanation.
[Gather seven Brother Monogatari character reward card shards. You can combine them into a single Brother Monogatari character reward card. If you have less than seven shards, you can use a random random draw card.]
Seiji was rendered speechless.
At this moment, he recalled the horror of being controlled by the game company, as well as the humiliation of not being able to draw anything in forty-two draws!
'System, you're actually playing this game with me!!
Not only was it just drawing items, but now you're even adding this … this amazing character reward card that's similar to the character reward card! Isn't this obviously forcing me to spend money!? '
Seiji gritted his teeth in anger.
'This is too much, this is too much! It wasn't easy for me to have so many points, but you're using such a despicable method to get them back!!
'I won't fall for this … Although I really want to say that, the character reward card … I really want it!!!'
Seiji felt conflicted and pained, just like all those years ago.
Dating sim system: Draw if you want, scram if you don't.
Seiji imagined himself violently beating up the system fairy!
But it was useless. He still had to do what he had to do.
Right now, he had one character reward card shard and thirty-nine random draw card shards.
Every random draw card shard could be used to create a random draw card with points, which meant that he could draw a maximum of thirty-nine times.
Should I chop off my hand … whoops, should I draw?
Seiji slowly reached out with his trembling right hand.
But at the last moment, he restrained his impulse! He grabbed his right hand with his left hand!!
"I'm not drawing!"
He decided not to draw for the time being. Perhaps he would be able to collect them naturally.
The Brother Monogatari character reward card … he really wanted it! He really wanted to see just what it was.
But even though he wanted it so much, Seiji didn't intend to go against his original decision. He didn't want to use the power of saving and loading on the random draw.
Seiji endured his desire and used his powerful willpower to shut down his system.
…
Within his soul realm.
After Seiji carefully looked over all the reward items, he felt that they could be categorized into three categories.
The first category was for increasing his stats. There were items that increased his basic stats and different stats.
The second category was for increasing special effects. There were all sorts of effects.
The third category was for the five-minute series!
For example, Little Shi's chocolate gave him a [Swordsmanship Strengthening Card] that would multiply the power of his swordsmanship for the next five minutes.
Mika's chocolate gave him a [Purification Strengthening Card] that would multiply the power of cleansing spells for the next five minutes.
Chiaki's chocolate gave him a [Clone Summoning Card] that would summon a shadow clone with 50% of the main body's power for the next five minutes.
Seiji called all these items that had a five-minute duration the "five-minute series."
If he used all of them in one go, he would transform into a [Five-Minute Superman]! He would be even stronger than Ultraman for two minutes!!
Just kidding.
Although the "five-minute series" were quite powerful, they weren't invincible. That was because all of their effects were based on Seiji's own power level.
However, there were some that had special effects that could be called bugs.
For example, Mika's [Invulnerable Defense Card] would allow him to block any attack without taking any damage.
This was a powerful life-saving card. Ling Yang had also given him one as a Winter Snow Festival present. Now, he had two of them.
There was also Mai's [Sure-Hit Card]. After using it, he would lock onto a target within his field of vision, and his next attack would definitely hit.
At first glance, this card didn't seem like much. It was just an automatic aiming card.
But when he thought about it more carefully, he realized that the target's range was within his field of vision. That meant that even if the target was far away, he would be able to lock onto the target as long as he could see it! And no matter what attack he used, he would be able to hit the target … that was amazing!!
