Chapter 99: New abilities
(Ryoto's pov)
Lala was starting to ready herself, so I had some time for myself. I decided to go back to my room and check some of the rewards.
Something interesting indeed happened. I'm in the future, but not really, and I got Karen's embarrassing (not really) secret, so I'll focus on the other two rewards.
First, I decided to upgrade one of my abilities, so I told Karen exactly that. A big wheel with all of my powers, skills, and abilities on it appeared in front of me, but I assume it was visible only to me. And when I mean all, I mean ALL. There was even my power to mimic any signing voice, mathematic expertise, and let's not forget about hentai protagonist stamina B.
'Hey Karen, why is that when I want to use gacha or anything random in my system, it always uses wheels?'
Karen: "You don't want to know, trust me. This system was designed by a pervert. To be more accurate, he redesigns it, but the details are not important. The point is don't talk about him or his family, or you'll be cursed."
OK, I'll trust her on this one.
The wheel started spinning. It went on and on without slowing down, but it suddenly stopped without any warning.
What's wrong with this wheel?
Never mind that, the arrow stopped on 'mathematic expertise', and it evolved into...
__________
Prediction Calculation - 20 min a day, resets at midnight.
As the name suggests, it's the ability that lets you calculate the probability by calculating everything around you.
__________
Very useful ability, but I don't know the limits of it, that's why I decided to try it.
As soon as I activated my newly required power, I started seeing numbers everywhere around me.
I looked at my closet where Lala's lab was, and I instantly and instinctively calculated the time when Lala would be ready.
99,999% chance of the door opening in 2 minutes.
I then looked through the window, and I could predict everything I saw, but the accuracy varied depending on how much I wanted to predict. The more calculation was required, the more accuracy dropped. Read latest chapters at nov(e)lbin.com Only
Seeing this, I had some ideas for why it is that, but I wanted to try one more thing.
I opened my eyes and walked up to my bed. I could see from what material it was made and how durable it is thanks to that. I could even see how worn out it is and how much it decreases its toughness.
Thanks to prediction calculation, I knew exactly how much strength I needed to break it, but I felt like using this power in that way was like using a laser to cut bread, pretty primitive.
It's understandable because before my short trip to another world I wasn't the best cook... OK, so I was pretty horrible, but I learned, and my dishes are delicious now. At least, according to Lala and others who ate them. Even Karasuma's spies praised my cooking.
With Lala, we ran to school, and thanks to our inhuman physique, we made it there in no time.
Before that, I packed some of the lollipops that I picked up before, and Truck-kun let me keep them. He truly is a benevolent God.
(Mikan's pov)
I was in my school thinking about what happened this morning.
Ryoto... he felt different today, which is weird in itself. He can hide his emotions exceptionally well, but he wasn't doing that today, not as much as usual, at least.
Ryoto wasn't the only one who changed.
Lala stopped being so clingy to Ryoto, but it looked like they were closer than ever. It's like they spent a long time together, but the change was too fast for that.
Something happens, and I don't know what. Not to mention Ryoto wanted to cook. The very same Ryoto who managed to fail to make scrambled eggs two years ago? Hard to believe it.
Sachie: "Mikan! Hey Mikan!!!"
My thoughts were broken by one of my friends. It looks like I'm in deep thoughts more often as of late. Primarily because of Ryoto.
Mikan: "What is it Sachie?"
Sachie: "We were wondering what were you thinking about. Could it be your brother that is on your mind?~"
She tried to tease me, but she isn't on Ryoto's level, so it didn't even faze me.
Mikan: "Actually, he is. Ryoto proposed that he'll make a dinner tonight so-"
Sachie & Mami: "Can we come!!!"
They said at the same time with great enthusiasm.
In my head was, however, one question. Why do they want to come to my house after the last time Ryoto flew through the wall and fought Jugemu together with penguins?
At least I know that nothing worse can happen this time, right?
