Chapter 29: Strange Smell…

Time flew by, and three days passed in a flash.

During these three days, besides learning cultivation knowledge and skills from Miyamizu Rin every day, Arisugawa Yuu also studied the so-called system.

According to his exploration and research over the past few days, he found that the system he carried with him was not intelligent and could only be used as an auxiliary tool.

For example, if he stared at an object for a few seconds, as long as he wanted, relevant attributes and descriptions would appear next to it.

Take a cherry blossom tree in front of him as an example.

Arisugawa Yuu stared at the cherry blossom tree for a few seconds and silently thought, “Appraise.”

A line of small words appeared in front of him: [Plant: Mountain Cherry] +

Clicking on the “+” sign revealed a more detailed description—Mountain Cherry, mainly distributed in the southern half of Japan, mainly grows in mountainous areas, with petal colors ranging from white to purplish red, and flowers and leaves growing at the same time…

If this system were used in daily life, it would probably function as an encyclopedia.

Of course, there might be other effects that still needed to be explored by Arisugawa Yuu.

The system’s main function was in cultivation.

For example, when Miyamizu Rin was teaching Arisugawa Yuu swordsmanship earlier, a line of text appeared in front of him: The Shrine Maiden Miyamizu Rin is teaching you the skill [Swordsmanship: Miyamizu Style]. Learn?

After Arisugawa Yuu chose “Yes,” a prompt would appear: [Learned]. Of course, he had only learned the basics. To become stronger, he needed to increase his proficiency.

According to Arisugawa Yuu’s exploration so far, proficiency could be increased through comprehension and diligent practice.

Besides these auxiliary functions, the system would also irregularly issue some inexplicable tasks.

For example, today, a clearly indecent task had just been refreshed.

[Task: Peep on the Shrine Maiden Miyamizu Rin while she is bathing and survive successfully.]

[Task Completion Reward: Purple Treasure Chest x1, Exchange Points x1000]

Sometimes, not completing these tasks would result in punishment, and sometimes not.

Fortunately, today’s task had no punishment. Otherwise, Arisugawa Yuu would have definitely coughed up blood.

Not to mention whether he could survive after peeping on Miyamizu Rin while she was bathing, even if he could survive, he would never do such an outrageous thing.

However, today’s task reward was really tempting.

The effect of the purple treasure chest was obvious—it could contain various rare items.

For example, yesterday, Arisugawa Yuu got a [Speed Card].

By calling out the system panel with his mind, he could see the illustration of the items he had already obtained.

Arisugawa Yuu called out the system panel and looked at the illustration of the Speed Card.

[Speed Card (Low-Grade): After use, greatly increases one’s movement speed for ten minutes.]

He tested it yesterday. After using the Speed Card, he could run about three times the distance in the same ten minutes as without it.

If the low-grade was this outrageous, Arisugawa Yuu could hardly imagine how heaven-defying the high-grade would be.

The function of exchange points was also self-explanatory—they were used to exchange for items in the system store.

The items in the system store were refreshed randomly once a week, and the number of items refreshed each time ranged from one to five.

This week’s product list had only one item—[Raiden Shogun Simulation Doll Price: 300 Exchange Points]

Out of curiosity, Arisugawa Yuu exchanged for it with the initial exchange points given by the system last night to take a look…

With a purely academic research mindset, after studying it for a whole night, Arisugawa Yuu came to a conclusion—this Raiden Shogun simulation doll, besides having no thoughts of its own, was identical to a real person in every other way. Not only the texture, but even the moans were lifelike and particularly realistic…

In short, system products were never bad.

He just didn’t know what would be refreshed next… and he didn’t know if there would be Hu Tao or Keqing’s… ahem… he meant, he didn’t know if there would be any other useful items. What was the use of these useless simulation dolls?

Could you eat them?

Uh, maybe… you actually could?

At least, the feeling of biting into it was exactly the same as biting a real person.

But Arisugawa Yuu was not such a pervert. A doll was just a doll. No matter how realistic it was, it could never replace a real person… an occasional indulgence to satisfy curiosity was enough.

If possible, he still hoped that some other useful items would be refreshed.

While lost in thought, the door to the room was knocked.

Arisugawa Yuu got up and opened the door. Miyamizu Rin was outside.

Today, Miyamizu Rin was not wearing her red and white miko outfit, but a white shirt, a black pleated skirt, black thigh-high socks, and small black leather shoes.

The girl’s ice-blue long hair was tied together with a ribbon, and the pink bow tie under her fair neck was tied very neatly. The front of the white shirt was high and full, accentuating a breathtaking curve. The cuffs of the black thigh-high socks were adorned with delicate lace. Against the backdrop of the black lace, the delicate thigh skin in the absolute territory looked even whiter and more alluring.

“A very youthful outfit. Today Miyamizu-senpai looks beautiful, especially her legs.”

Arisugawa Yuu praised.

“Thank you, I think so too.”

Miyamizu Rin politely thanked him.

Although she said so, being praised by Arisugawa Yuu like this still made Miyamizu Rin feel a little embarrassed.

She awkwardly pulled down her skirt slightly, trying to cover her snow-white thighs. Unfortunately, because her legs were too long, this action was completely futile. Not only did it not cover them, but it also added a touch of messy beauty.

Arisugawa Yuu watched, utterly enthralled, feeling as if his soul had been cleansed.

Looking at girls’ legs—especially Miyamizu-senpai’s—was truly a spiritual experience.

Miyamizu Rin quickly realized the futility of her actions. She shot Arisugawa Yuu a glare with her clear eyes and muttered: “Perverted leg fetishist.”

“Thank you. I think so too.”

Arisugawa Yuu mimicked her earlier response—copying not just the words, but the exact tone.

Miyamizu Rin: “???”

Staring at him with a head full of question marks, she gave him the cold, trash-like look she reserved for the lowest of the low.

Facing that disdainful gaze, Arisugawa Yuu quickly said: “Senpai, I was just joking to lighten the mood. Isn’t that going too far?”

“Hmph. I think you were telling the truth, not joking.” She huffed, then decided not to dwell on it, stepping into the room.

The moment she entered, Miyamizu Rin frowned, her delicate brows knitting together. “What’s that smell?”

She could sense something strange in the air, but being as pure as she was, she couldn’t quite place it.

The Raiden Shogun replica had long been stored in his system space, so there was no risk of her discovering it.

But Arisugawa Yuu was puzzled—he’d carefully cleaned up all traces. Why could she still smell something?

Her nose was too sharp.
