The moment Higashino Kanade stepped out of the gladiatorial arena's lounge, he was attacked by two enormous soft mounds.

Luvia happily pressed Higashino Kanade's little head into her chest, rubbing her smooth cheek fiercely against his soft hair. While groping him all over, she said excitedly, "That was absolutely splendid, Uchiha! You are my guardian knight... no, my prince!"

"Woman! Do not test my self-control!"

Higashino Kanade shouted angrily, pushing at Luvia with all his strength.

But Luvia seemed to have taken the wrong medicine today. Completely unlike her usual self, she clung to Higashino Kanade like a lovesick pervert and refused to let go. She even used Reinforcement Magecraft to contend against the strength Higashino Kanade had enhanced with Chakra.

"Ugh... I'm suffocating..."

For the moment, Higashino Kanade was powerless to resist. He did not dare use the Substitution Technique to escape within the Clock Tower, so he could only let Luvia manhandle him.

Luvia enjoyed herself for quite a while. Only when Higashino Kanade's little face was flushed red and he was gasping desperately like someone about to drown did she reluctantly release him. Before letting go, she did not forget to quickly kiss his forehead.

P.S.: Sixth update!!!

The Arrival of Assassination!

"I will always love Ryougi Shiki. I will always love Ryougi Shiki."

Higashino Kanade forcibly suppressed the impulse in his heart, repeatedly conjuring Ryougi Shiki's image in his mind to resist Luvia's waves.

"Uchiha, I have a question I want to ask you." Luvia shyly moved closer to Higashino Kanade. The waves at her chest left him staring blankly.

Higashino Kanade swallowed, trying hard to turn his head away as he cursed himself inwardly. Sister Shiki, it's not that I lack resolve. The enemy's weapons are just too huge.

Even as an old lecher like Higashino Kanade, he was starting to be unable to withstand Luvia's enthusiasm. To prevent things from spiraling out of control, he hurriedly backed away several steps and asked like a little girl wary of a creepy uncle, "What is it? Just ask. Keep your hands to yourself."

The moment he finished speaking, Higashino Kanade felt a soreness in his butt. That thirsty woman had actually pinched his ass!

"You only needed to defeat that brat from Animusphere. Why did you go so far for me? We have only known each other for a short time. Our relationship is not close enough for that, is it?" Luvia lowered her head with a crimson face, looking as bashful as a girl in love. She was utterly unlike her usual proud and imposing self.

"You know we have only known each other for a short time?!" Higashino Kanade snapped in irritation. Luvia had clearly been the one taking the initiative all along. Was this the villain accusing first?

To keep Luvia from misunderstanding, Higashino Kanade explained honestly, "Ahem, don't misunderstand. I offended so many people entirely because I was forced into it. Although I found them unpleasant too and wanted to teach them a lesson, even I would not have dared to retaliate so boldly. Part of the reason was to vent your anger, but it was definitely not all for you."

Although Higashino Kanade kept waving his hands in denial, Luvia saw something entirely different in that denial.

"Hehe, Uchiha, you are so cute when you try to hide it. You clearly did it for me, yet you deliberately lie about it. Is this the legendary tsundere?" Luvia could not help wiping away the drool at the corner of her mouth.

Higashino Kanade was not only a handsome red-haired youth, but also possessed peerless Magus bloodlines. That kind of allure was anything but ordinary.

Fortunately, Luvia was a Magus with principles. If it had been some other female Magi, they would probably all have wanted to lock Higashino Kanade in a basement and train him into a living weapon.

"Alright, alright, I know you offended so many people for my sake. If you like me, just say so. There is no need to hide it." Luvia spoke in the tone of someone educating a child.

"I don't! I didn't! Don't misunderstand!"

"Tsundere you is so cute."

Luvia gave a charming smile, unable to resist wanting to pull Higashino Kanade into her arms and ravish him.

Just as Higashino Kanade was preparing to run away, a series of light coughs interrupted Luvia's assault.

"Ahem. Save your flirting for when you get home. I have something important to discuss with Uchiha Kanade."

Waver looked awkwardly at the intimate pair. Grea, who followed behind him, was so embarrassed that she wanted to flee the scene on the spot. The affection between a man and a woman was still far too bold for her.

"Saved." Higashino Kanade gave Waver a grateful look, then asked seriously, "What is it, Waver?"

"I have to admit it, Uchiha. What you did this time was very successful. A strategic success."

Waver patted Higashino Kanade on the shoulder and nodded approvingly. "You have achieved your goal of making your Sharingan famous. Although the process was extremely reckless, the result was good. On my way here, quite a few people were already asking me about you and your Mystic Eyes."

"But there is a very serious problem now: your safety." Waver's tone shifted, and his expression darkened. "I knew from the start that once your Sharingan became famous, many Magi would set their sights on it. But after the stunt you pulled today, that number will probably multiply several times over."

"You know what Magi are like. They are people who will use any means for profit. To obtain your Mystic Eyes, assassination, kidnapping, curses—there is no method they would not use. You need to prepare for your own safety. Don't end up dead before the invitation to the Mystic Eyes Collection Train arrives."

Higashino Kanade answered calmly, "Naturally. I have long been mentally prepared."

Higashino Kanade understood the principle that an innocent man could be ruined by possessing a treasure. Before deciding to make the Sharingan famous, he had already prepared himself for assassination attempts.

He was not afraid of being assassinated. In his previous life, he had been a ninja, an expert in the assassination business. With a trump card like the Curse Mark of Heaven, he was confident in his own safety.

Would a lion fear being bitten to death by a pack of rabbits?

As long as the people who came were not Aozaki Touko or the freaks from Chaldea's Group A, Higashino Kanade was confident he could handle them.

"If you are that confident, then I can rest easy." Waver sighed in relief before continuing, "I intend to assess your Mystic Eyes as Jewel-level in my paper. Jewel-level is already very high, but as long as they are not Rainbow-level, the truly important figures will not set their sights on you. If necessary, you can transform into a Phantasmal Species to deal with them."

"Thank you."

"Just don't die. At least tell me all the information about the Holy Grail War before you die. I do not want to work for you for nothing." Waver snorted, but there was concern in his words.

"Don't worry. I won't die."

Higashino Kanade smiled and patted Waver on the shoulder, thinking that Waver really was a good friend. At the same time, his other hand touched the sapphire in his pocket.

With Love's Sapphire, Higashino Kanade effectively had an extra life. He was even more confident in his safety.

Over the following weeks, Higashino Kanade buried himself in books at the library. Meanwhile, Luvia underwent a drastic change in temperament and voluntarily served as his book-moving assistant. Her obedient behavior made Higashino Kanade somewhat unaccustomed to it.

Waver was busy with his paper concerning Higashino Kanade's Mystic Eyes. While writing it, he and Grea also solved several cases and attended a banquet at the Twin Towers.

After returning from the Twin Towers, Waver published his paper. He also warned Higashino Kanade to be careful of Aozaki Touko. More important figures now knew about Higashino Kanade's Mystic Eyes.

Higashino Kanade also found time to read Waver's paper. It described his Sharingan as a composite Mystic Eye possessing vision of the future and past, exceptional insight, illusion-type Magecraft, and copying abilities, second only to the legendary Rainbow-level.

What impressed Higashino Kanade most was that, despite it being complete nonsense, Waver had written it with such logical reasoning and solid evidence that it was extremely convincing. If Higashino Kanade had not been the owner of the Mystic Eyes, he might have believed Waver's bullshit himself.

During that week, Higashino Kanade received olive branches from quite a few great families. Some were even willing to marry off their daughters to win him over.

During that time, Higashino Kanade also experienced several assassination attempts that he considered quite clumsy. However, because he was inside the Clock Tower, the number of attempts was not as high as he had imagined.

What made Higashino Kanade happiest was that after reading more than half the Clock Tower library's collection, his treasure chest successfully upgraded to Gold-level. At the same time, the system informed him that he had completed the minimum requirement for the World Information Gathering mission. Once he completed the mission concerning the Mystic Eyes Collection Train, he could choose to return to his original world.

P.S.: Seven updates delivered. Time to become a writing machine~~~

I Don't Want to Be a Scumbag

However, I do not recommend that the host return home before the treasure chest has upgraded to Diamond-level.

Ha! Did that really need saying? With such a great point-grinding mission, if I don't work hard until I reach Diamond-level and pull out a Rinnegan, I'd be letting myself down.

...Host, you have changed.

Men are fickle.

Although saying this now may be somewhat unnecessary, I still believe it is necessary to remind you that the higher this mission's completion rate, the better the enhancement effect on your body. It will also allow the ninja system of power to integrate more effectively with the Nasuverse's power system.

Put simply, the higher your completion rate, the stronger you will be in the future. Do you understand?

Understood.

After coming to terms with it, Higashino Kanade became much more enthusiastic about improving his strength and no longer resisted the missions assigned by the system as much as before.

As he had said before, iron had to be hard before it could be forged. In this dangerous Nasuverse, if he did not become stronger, how could he last until a rich woman came to save him?

After ending his conversation with the system, Higashino Kanade resumed his Quantum Butterfly Reading.

Luvia sat beside Higashino Kanade, looking at him with a conflicted expression. Several times, she seemed about to say something, only to swallow her words again before they came out. Her expression gradually turned aggrieved.

Naturally, Higashino Kanade noticed the pitiful-looking Luvia beside him. Considering that she had diligently served as a useful assistant for the past week, he felt it was necessary to show her some concern.

Although Luvia had recently been sneaking into his bed in the middle of the night and trying to hug him whenever he was not paying attention, Higashino Kanade, as a freeloader, possessed the noble awareness of a freeloader. He knew that half the credit for where he was today belonged to the support Luvia had provided, so he turned a blind eye to her taking advantage of him. As long as she did not go too far, he could treat it as a benefit for the rich woman.

"What is it? If you have something to say, say it." Higashino Kanade closed his book and looked at Luvia.

Luvia froze for a moment, then nervously pressed her legs together. Twisting about like a little girl, she said, "Uchiha, do you remember promising to go on a date with me?"

As she spoke, Luvia involuntarily gripped one of Higashino Kanade's arms tightly. Her eyes were full of unease and anxiety, as though she feared he would reject her outright.

"Of course I remember." Higashino Kanade answered without hesitation.

Luvia immediately sighed in relief, then asked expectantly, "Then when do you think would be suitable? I am fine with anything."

Seeing Luvia acting almost like a desperate simp, Higashino Kanade pressed his forehead in discomfort, feeling utterly helpless.

Heaven knew he had never actively pursued Luvia! Why had Luvia's affection for him somehow maxed out without him noticing?

Higashino Kanade was so confused his head hurt. When he had pursued Sister Shiki, he had poured in 200 percent effort, even turning himself into a shameless simp. Yet the enthusiasm he showed Luvia was not even one percent of what he had shown Sister Shiki. He had treated her like a cold and aloof cat, barely giving her the time of day.

Why had he still failed to win over Sister Shiki, while Luvia had become his simp? What was wrong with this world? Why was the difference in difficulty between heroines so enormous?

"You don't want to?" Seeing the pain on Higashino Kanade's face, Luvia forcibly suppressed her sadness and disappointment. She managed a smile and said, "It is fine if you do not want to. I am not in much of a hurry. We can take things slowly."

"No! That is not it! I do not mean that I dislike you."

Higashino Kanade organized his words and spoke with the seriousness of someone negotiating. "You should know that I have a fiancée. Although our relationship has not reached the point of being lovers, we will become lovers sooner or later. What I want to tell you is that I cannot abandon my fiancée to be with you."

"I know. As I said before, any treasure the Edelfelt Family sets its eyes on cannot escape. You are my prey, and I will not give up on you." Luvia's attitude became firm as well.

"No, you do not understand my situation. To be honest with you, I am not from this world. In some time, I will leave. I may never be able to return. There is no need for you to dwell on me."

"Leave? Are you going back to the Other Side of the World?" Luvia was shocked, and her face turned even paler.

"You can think of it that way." Higashino Kanade nodded.

A Phantasmal Species returning to the Other Side of the World was no different from him returning to his original world. Since the misunderstanding had already gone this far, he might as well explain it that way.

"How much longer can you remain?" Luvia's voice already carried a sob.

"If nothing unexpected happens, no more than a month."

Though it pained him somewhat, Higashino Kanade felt that some matters needed to be made clear. He might be a freeloader, but he did not want to be a scumbag. The fact that he had been hanging around Jiraiya for so long and still remained a virgin was proof enough.

Having said those words, Higashino Kanade felt much more relieved.

Whatever Luvia said next, even if she lashed out in humiliation and anger, hit him, or cursed him, he would not fight back.

Once Luvia had vented enough and kicked him away, she could begin a new life. As time passed, she would forget him. That was what Higashino Kanade wanted to see.

Luvia seized one of Higashino Kanade's hands with great force. Holding back the tears in her eyes, she pleaded, "At least... at least before you leave... leave me a child!"

???

Fuck! This woman is beyond saving!

Higashino Kanade immediately felt a chill run through him. The way Luvia looked at him had changed. She was like a vicious wolf eyeing a little lamb, as if she wanted to devour him without leaving even a bone behind!

"Hmph! Did you think I would beg you like an ordinary woman, curse you, and ask you not to leave? You underestimate me far too much, Uchiha." Luvia snorted and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. With the commanding presence of a valkyrie, she said, "I have invested so much in you. Unless I squeeze every last bit of value from you, I will not let you leave!"

As she spoke, Luvia dragged Higashino Kanade away from the table with tremendous force. While walking, she said, "There is still time to go back to the villa I bought and conceive a child. For this entire month, you are not going anywhere. You are not allowed to leave until you get me pregnant!"

"I am only twelve this year! Spare me!"

Naturally, Higashino Kanade would rather die than submit. He clung to a pillar and refused to leave.

He could already imagine that if he agreed to Luvia's demand, the month awaiting him would probably be hellish. He did not want to become a living weapon!

Host, why not just submit to her?

The system's sudden appearance truly caught Higashino Kanade off guard, but that did not stop him from resisting Luvia while cursing the system.

Submit my ass! I do not want to be a scumbag!

Host, you should know that this world has no ninja villages. If you want to become Hokage, you must establish a Konoha yourself.

What does creating Konoha have to do with my virginity crisis? Say what you want to say already!

Host, as you know, Uchiha Sasuke needs to have many children to revive the Uchiha clan. Likewise, if the host wants to establish a ninja village, you will need many children. It would be such a waste not to pass down all those bloodline limits you possess!

P.S.: First update, the beginning of a scumbag!

You Are All My Wings!

The awakening condition for the Mangekyo Sharingan is killing someone close to you. I think you are just hoping I die!

Host should not think that way. You will certainly become an existence surpassing the Sage of Six Paths in the future. Whether it is the Sage Body or Sage Eye, passing either one down through inheritance is an absolute profit.

Why are you always thinking about horny stuff? Would it not be better to be an emotionless system?

This system is helpless as well. If you were still in the Naruto world, the difficulty would only be Normal Mode, and this system would not bother managing so much. But you died before this system activated, then somehow transmigrated into the Nasuverse. The difficulty instantly rose to Hell Mode. You have to build a ninja village from scratch, and this system has a mission to fulfill too!
