After the rainy night, there was a bright sunny day … there wasn't.
The rain had stopped, but the dark clouds still remained. Today was still a gloomy day that made it hard for anyone to be in high spirits.
However, a song in a good mood was playing in the room.
The source of the song was Chiaki, who was currently cooking breakfast.
The beautiful girl wearing an apron was humming a song as she cooked. She seemed to be in a good mood, which even affected Seiji as he watched her.
This was the first time that Chiaki had ever made breakfast.
She often slept in, so she had never made breakfast before, which was why this was a rare occasion.
After retrieving her memories of her mother, contacting her father, and talking to him, she seemed to have changed.
It was difficult to describe exactly how she had changed … if he had to describe it, he would say that she had become more "substantial."
Compared to her original self, the current Chiaki felt less "light" and more "heavy."
Seiji couldn't help but think back to a certain famous light romance heroine from his previous world. Because a god took away her memories and worries about her mother, she lost her body weight and only regained her weight after retrieving them.
This was somewhat similar to Chiaki's experience. It was also about her mother, god, memories, longing, worries … and the irreparable loss.
Even if it was irreparable.
Even if it was irreparable.
In the end, he still managed to retrieve his important memories, thereby restoring the "weight" of his life and life that he should have.
At this moment, Chiaki seemed to sense Seiji's gaze as she turned around and smiled when her gaze met his.
Seiji was moved by this bright smile and smiled back.
* Ding! * His system suddenly notified him.
[A female character's favorability rating has reached 100. You have received this character reward card.]
Character reward card … Seiji widened his eyes in surprise.
This could only be Chiaki's.
At this moment, Chiaki's face flushed red, and her eyes flashed with an alluring light.
But before Seiji could get a better look at her, she retracted her gaze, seeming rather shy.
Seiji was even more moved by this, and he even had the urge to hug her from behind and make out with her.
He couldn't help but think of the apron's new wife cosplay … 'Stop! Don't think about it anymore!!
If he continued to think about it, he might really not be able to control himself. He tried very hard to restrain his desire.
It seemed that Chiaki had become even more charming … or more accurately, she had become even more attractive to him.
His Favorability Level reached 100 in the silent exchange of gazes, and it felt as if the conditions were right.
After looking away, Seiji opened up the system to check.

…
It didn't seem like these two buffs against God-type creatures wouldn't be very useful, but they would doubtlessly be of great help when they were needed. This was the [Godslaying] technique.
As for the first and second skills, they were simply amazing!
[Perform a powerful fantasy technique.] Ignoring how powerful it would actually be, just the "fantasy technique" alone was enough to make Seiji's eyes light up.
Just imagining using a fantasy technique in real life made him excited. His otaku soul was almost unable to resist the urge to immediately try it out.
As for [Transforming into the appearance of an imaginary character], just like its name suggested, it was a godly role-playing technique! Combined with the first skill, he would be able to use his fantasy character's ultimate technique in real life. That would be … amazing!!
All sorts of fantasies flooded Seiji's mind, and he was unable to stop himself.
It took him quite a bit of effort to calm himself down and think about it seriously.
If he was experimenting, he could transform into any form and use any technique he wanted. But in actual combat, he would have to use the appropriate technique depending on the situation.
The power and effects of the [Ultimate Performance] technique wouldn't be the same as what he imagined it to be. As the name suggested, it was a "performance." Fantasy techniques were powerful, but their power was still limited.
Looking at it from this angle, the most important part of the first skill was to "respond." For example, if the enemy's attack was too strong, he would use a fantasy technique to protect himself. If the enemy's defense was too strong, he would use a fantasy technique that could break through the enemy's defense. If the enemy's speed was too fast, he would use a fantasy technique that could imprison the enemy … and so on.
The core value of this skill was that it was omnipotent. Any technique that could be imagined could be used, and it would be able to deal with any situation!
And, the core value of the second skill was doubtlessly that it was disguise. Transforming into an imaginary character meant that he could transform into anyone. Robbing, killing, and stealing … cough, at any rate, it was quite useful when he didn't want to reveal his true identity.
As long as he wanted to hide himself, he could simply transform into someone else's appearance. And, if he wanted to disguise himself as someone else, apart from having a sufficiently detailed imagination, he would also need to have sufficient acting skills.
If he had sufficiently good acting skills, he would be able to become a monster bandit with this godly skill.
Monster bandit Seiji … he felt that it would be quite interesting if he thought about it.
Of course, he wouldn't actually become a monster bandit.
The third skill was a drawing enhancement skill. It would be useful for drawing.
'I'll use this skill to draw a picture of Chiaki and her mother.' Seiji thought to himself.
Although he didn't know what Chiaki's mother looked like, she should be able to draw her if she had to describe it.
Logically speaking, this should have been done by Chiaki's father, since he was a famous artist. But, Seiji just wanted to steal some business.
'Alright, it's decided. I'll bring this up to Chiaki later!'
After mentally apologizing to his future father-in-law, Seiji looked towards Chiaki with a smile.
Everyone ate together after breakfast was ready.
Chiaki was currently savoring her bliss, especially when she looked at Seiji.
Although her mother wouldn't be able to return, she had regained her precious memories and reconciled with her father.
She told her father about how she recovered her memories with the help of Seiji and the others. She also told him her mother's name, as well as the truth behind her disappearance.
Wakaba Hiroshi Makoto had tears streaming down his face in front of his daughter as he repeatedly muttered his wife's name.
This scene was deeply engraved into Chiaki's mind. She would remember it for the rest of her life.
And then, they became an ordinary father and daughter.
They traveled a long way and took many detours. They lost their memories and time. They experienced sadness and disappointment. It was only after much difficulty that they managed to overcome the barriers between them that they finally reached this point.
Although it wasn't enough for them to truly become an "ordinary father and daughter," they definitely would in the future.
What was lost was irretrievable. Fortunately, they had regained what was important to them and had a better future ahead of them.
And this was all thanks to Seiji.
Although her father still didn't acknowledge him, this was a problem. But, it would probably be solved in the future.
After all, he was the best boyfriend that she loved!
