Ranking System

There is a party that I'm supposed to attend. And apparently, Nene forgot to inform me about it. But what made it so good was that Montgomery said it was good luck.

"Montgomery, what do you mean by good luck?"

Instead of asking Nene, Montgomery seemed more informed. Nene got flustered hearing me ask Montgomery instead.

"I don't know much about it, but I heard that there would be a party from the Interdimensional Union Committee every year."

"At that party, you will be seeing people from other worlds. I heard contests would happen, and since you like prizes, you could earn them. And those prizes will be priceless for someone in our world."

"Master~! If you're going, it will be at the start of next month~!"

Isn't that in four days? With my all-purpose suit, I could change it for the occasion. Talking about the party, I went straight home.

"Welcome back, Master."

Rose, a maid of mine, welcomed me back. I noticed that she had been trying to get closer to me. But for some reason, she hesitates each time she makes her move.

"Thank you for all the hard work you do."

Rose smiled brightly, seeing me compliment her on her work. Nene didn't seem to care while Reina stared at her.

Montgomery went to the garden to have a chat with Aled. Montgomery and Aled have been getting along very well.

"I will be going to my room. If you need anything, do ask."

I left the living room to go to my room. Nene and Reina followed along. I had a grimoire and a skill-leveling capsule to use.

There was also the drinkable mana that I needed to set up. Since the skill capsule was mine, I swallowed the capsule using the drinkable mana.

[Skill Level Up]

[Only Skill For This is Target Of Misfortune]

[Target Of Misfortune is now at the fourth level]

[Target Of Misfortune: Rank EX (Level: 4)]: This allows the skill to cause misfortune upon the desired user. It can't be removed unless the caster allows it to do so. It could only be used if the target is within 50 kilometers of you.

The upgrade for my skill had no additional effect. Only the distances had increased. But ten times the last distance was still impressive.

This skill allows me to cover one-tenth of the island. Once I upgrade this skill to the fifth level, I can cover everything.

My skill was still in the first rank. But my ranking could still increase from 395 to 290. With my growing fast, people would think I'm a cheater.

I then took out the grimoire. I have heard of them. They allow you to get a skill depending on the book's condition.

While I had never seen one until now, everyone could tell that a grimoire would be a priceless treasure.

"Master~! Good luck~!"

"Charles, I pray that you'll get something good."

I nodded, thanking both of them for their prayers. Opening the grimoire, a text was shown.

'Think about the power you want the most. Whether it's a powerful attack or a defensive move.'

'Then manifest the thought using your mana and pour it on the grimoire.'

What kind of power do I want? If I think about it clearly, I need a technique that can protect me. I want something that would make me untouchable.

Knowing what skill I wanted, I let out some mana and gave it to the grimoire.

[Skill Received]

[Intangible: Rank S (Level: 1)]: Once activating this skill, your body will be untouchable. Requires mana to be active.

The grimoire in my hand had disappeared. Now that I had gained a skill that would help me live longer, any attempts of me being hit would be close to null.

"Master~! What skill did you get~? Show me~!"

Nene was curious, so she ran up to me, prompting me to tell her what it was. Reina was also curious. She could have used her skill to see what skill I got, but where would the fun be if she did that?

"Give me a hug."

Doing what I said, Nene spread her arms wide and tried to hold me. The moment she tried to touch me, she slipped past my body and almost tumbled. Reina chuckled at Nene's surprise.

The limit time of my skill is five seconds. It drained too much of my mana. If I wanted to sustain that skill, I would need more mana.

But looking at what happened to Nene, I got what I wanted. Overall, the grimoire I used was a success.

"Master~! That's so cool~!"

Nene went for a tackle this time. Since the tackle was harmless, I let her hit me. I felt drained by using my skill. With Nene tackling me, she pushed us to the bed.

"Why didn't you use your skill~?"

"It's too draining. I'll use it when it is necessary."

"Draining~?"

Nene's lips curled into a smile. I could see where this was going. But I'm not in the mood yet. There is still the bath that I got to take.

"Master~! Why don't I drain you right now~!"

Reina stood behind Nene and grabbed her tail.

"Nyah~!"

"Is sex all you think of? Look at Charles. He's not in the mood."

"Why don't we make a medical bath? The store owner gave me a year's worth of supplies. It would be a waste not to use them."

The year's worth of supplies must have cost billions. I have won out by going to that store. But this may be the last time for me to do something like this.

"Master, are you sure you want to let us use it? It's more effective for you to use it alone."

"I don't mind. I'm growing at an incredible rate. And I'm going to do so more at the party. This much isn't a big deal."

Both Nene and Reina smiled. They each grabbed a side of my arm and dragged me to the bath.
