Receiving Rewards / The Girl Who Hid Her Reward

However, although Miyauchi Hiyage could no longer have a face-to-face conversation with Araki, he still had an alternate version of Araki in front of him.

Even though the two had never actually met, Kishibe Rohan, the ultimate creator who embodied Araki's will, had an extremely keen ability to judge this aspect of the setting.

Miyauchi Hiyage simply explained the setting of Part 8, Kishibe Rohan confirmed that it must be the reason for his awakened ability.

It's unclear how many people have obtained Stands from these Wall Eyes hidden beneath Morioh's land, and whether they have any connection to the origins of the Stone Humans in Part 8, whose race has a 95% chance of awakening a Stand.

This is yet another forgotten setting.

However, there's nothing to worry about regarding Miyauchi Hiyage.

The number of Stone Humans was not large, and they were almost all wiped out in the eighth installment.

Moreover, he already possesses the abilities of the eighth boss. Such abilities are a complete game-changer for ordinary Stand User. Unless the opponent pulls out a super-powerful Stand like Requiem or even Over Heaven, they have no way to escape the pursuit of Law of Calamity.

Oh, and we also need to consider the Super Soft & Wet that was given "power from outside the world" by the author because the plot couldn't continue.

Even if the Tooru truly exists in this world, the rewards given in the Diary are all exceptionally high-quality abilities. Similarly, Stands capable of manipulating and practicing the Law of Calamity must also have varying degrees of superiority.

If the two of them were to actually come together, then Miyauchi Hiyage would tell the other which of their Wonder of U was male and which was female.

Although it was already dark, the Miyauchi Hiyage maid, Hikage, was distracted and did not need to eat, while Kishibe Rohan was filled with an irrepressible curiosity about these extraordinary things.

Even knowing the potential consequences of such curiosity, seeing Miyauchi Hiyage take the first step, he followed in her footsteps without hesitation.

Guided by Kishibe Rohan's notes and led by Kishibe Rohan in his car, the two quickly found the bench where Kishibe Rohan had first encountered the Wall Eyes and fallen into a deep sleep.

More than ten years have passed, and the environment here has changed a lot.

But no matter where you look, there is clearly no trace of a high wall.

If it weren't for the clear record of Kishibe Rohan saw and heard at the time in his books, one would really doubt whether Kishibe Rohan had made a mistake in his memory.

However, unlike Rohan on the Kishibe Rohan, Miyauchi Hiyage focused his attention on the underground from the very beginning.

Although this clone cannot directly use Ripple or unleash Unlimited Blade Works, the abilities of Wonder of U and Yellow Temperance alone are sufficient.

"I'll go down and take a look," Miyauchi Hiyage said, before transforming into a phantom and merging into the ground.

Even though Miyauchi Hiyage had previously stated that this body was just a clone he had casually created, the fact that the guy who had always been a solid entity suddenly became illusory in front of him still made Kishibe Rohan sigh.

Compared to the suffocating power that others possess, his Heaven's Door seems like a child's toy.

He confirmed something in his mind once again.

That means just being a good cartoonist and living a normal life in the Front World, without trying to get involved in those supernatural circles.

This is also the core idea in those short stories featuring him as the protagonist.

Even so, Kishibe Rohan's eyes remained quite bright.

After all, he has already established contact with this You Know Who, and this relationship should continue in the future.

Even if he doesn't enter that circle himself, he can still learn more about the stories of that world through this You Know Who, which can greatly help his inspiration for creating comics in the future.

Of course, he still needs to deal with those troubles before he can devote all his energy to comics.

Meanwhile, after diving Miyauchi Hiyage, Nyūkage had only explored about ten meters down when he sensed a more mysterious power that surpassed his understanding of the Law of Calamity.

According to the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure setting, the origin of Stands is the mysterious elements in Alien Meteorite that fell to Earth many years ago, and the wonderful effects produced by life on Earth.

In the Old World, those meteorites were made into bows and arrows, while in the New World, they appear in a more primitive form.

Ultimately, those meteorites and craters evolved into the Devil's Palm and the Wall Eyes that now appears before the Miyauchi Hiyage.

Perhaps those Stone Humans were the first special humans in the new world to be "evolved" due to the impact of the meteorite.

However, Miyauchi Hiyage himself didn't care whether his speculations were correct or not.

All he needs to do is find the energy source that can awaken a Stand.

With the passive effect of the Golden Rule and the power of the Eyes of Destiny activated, the Law of Calamity in the world are utilized to the fullest extent.

In just over ten minutes, the Miyauchi Hiyage found what it wanted to see in the Wall Eyes that stretches for ten kilometers.

They were tiny, mysterious mineral fragments, some even as fine as sand.

Even after searching the entire Morioh, Miyauchi Hiyage only found about a dozen scattered fragments underground.

These dozen or so mineral fragments, which together are no bigger than a fist, formed such a large area of Wall Eyes, and have been continuously searching for people with potential in Morioh, helping them awaken the power of Stands.

Moreover, whenever Miyauchi Hiyage tries to take these mineral fragments, his Law of Calamity subconsciously reminds him that doing so will only bring even greater calamity to this land.

This forced Miyauchi Hiyage to abandon his idea of packing all the minerals up and taking them home.

"Alien power, how amazing," Shiina Mahiru Himekage muttered to himself as he watched Shiina Mashiro Miyauchi Hiyage manga in Shiina Mashiro's room.

He originally planned to go straight home after school, but that woman Shinomiya Kaguya, was so determined to open his box so precisely.

It's one thing to fill in Beika Town and Morioh to get all the regular rewards, but they even wrote down the house number.

He still has some pride to save face.

So tonight he decided to stay at his older sister's place for a while.

After hearing Miyauchi Hiyage's remark, Shiina Mashiro looked at Miyauchi Hiyage with some curiosity, as if asking him what had happened.

"I found the Alien Meteorite that could awaken the Stand ability in qualified people, but due to the restrictions of the rules, I can't bring it back directly."

Miyauchi Hiyage gave a simple explanation.

Shiina Mashiro blinked. "Should we go over there now?"

She knew that Miyauchi Hiyage was currently with that Pink Dark Boy, the manga artist.

"No need for that. Although we can't get it back directly, at least I have a cheat code."

Miyauchi Hiyage waved his hand, then began to demonstrate a simple sword technique in the room.

Even though those grains of sand possess the power of rules, in his world, he is the greatest rule.

Mere Alien Meteorite are no match for us!

If he had enough Mana, he could even forge a substitute sword directly.

If you want to get a Stand, you'll have to get stabbed by him. If you awaken the Stand, you'll live; if you don't, you'll die.

Miyauchi Hiyage briefly showed the gravel-sized ore he had projected, which had consumed more than half of his Mana: "This is it. Put it by your bedside. If you have the aptitude, it should awaken your Stand in one night."

"But let's not rush it. Let me experiment with Tohru first."

Chapter 278: Receiving a Reward

The settlement time for the limited-time commission regarding the You Know Who's current location is 8 PM.

The method of entrusted settlement is also quite intriguing.

In reality, Miyauchi Hiyage's true form is in an apartment building near Toyosaki High School in Chiyoda Ward.

However, those girls who filled in Tokyo in one of their answers, or even directly filled in Chiyoda Ward, were not eligible for a chance to win a prize.

Even when the task was settled, the Reading Points she received were roughly the same as those received by the girls who filled in other incorrect answers.

Shinomiya Kaguya regretfully report the rewards they had received for their commissions.

So is filling in Tokyo the wrong answer?

No, she shook her head as she looked at her reward.

Because of her influence, when she mentioned Morioh, many girls in the group who trusted her filled in Morioh on one of their chances.

Furthermore, after completing the settlement, they successfully obtained a chance to win a prize and some Reading Points as a reward.

But she was different. Although she also filled in the address of Morioh, the reward she received was significantly more generous than those of the other girls.

There were no extra Reading Points rewards, but you did get one chance to draw a skill and one chance to draw an item.

"So, is the extra reward only for guessing another location of the You Know Who, in addition to guessing Morioh, which they want us to guess?" Shinomiya Kaguya concluded.

But thinking about it, it makes sense.

The You Know Who's initial condition was that the city be a coastal city outside the three major metropolitan areas, which excluded Tokyo from the outset. Therefore, the answer naturally had to be chosen within the corresponding rules.

"If you guess Morioh correctly, you will get at least one chance to win a prize plus an extra Reading Points reward. Only under these conditions will you be eligible to use your second chance to participate in the subsequent 'bonus questions'."

Shinomiya Kaguya muttered to herself, finally understanding the reward mechanism for this request.

Under this mechanism, she's probably the only one who can guess two positions correctly and receive the bonus.

She didn't reveal that she had been given two chances to win the prize, but instead used them decisively.

The lottery process was surprisingly simple; there wasn't even a basic spinning wheel.

Basically, after she confirmed the lottery draw, she immediately received the corresponding reward.

The skill reward is telekinesis, while the item reward is a gem imbued with powerful Mana.

It wasn't a particularly powerful ability, but Shinomiya Kaguya could clearly feel that the Cursed Energy within her body, which was originally only weak, had increased by nearly tenfold after receiving the reward of telekinesis.

Even if she had spent a lot of time building up her skills, she could at most reach the level of a second-level mage in her lifetime, and it would be almost impossible for her to reach the first level on her own.

So now, if she can master her newly awakened telekinesis and combine it with other methods, she should be able to steadily become a Level 1 superhuman.

Moreover, the telekinetic power she acquired can continue to improve, making it a supernatural ability with considerable room for improvement and a wide range of applications.

She did a simple test and was already able to use her telekinesis to float.

However, the current telekinetic power is not very strong. In order to freely use this ability to fly, this ability will need to continue to grow for a period of time.

As for the item rewards, they're rather lackluster.

This gem has many uses. It can be used directly to achieve a level of output beyond level one, and its Mana can also be used for healing or physical enhancement.

However, the former is a one-time use item, while the latter, due to her Ripple Chi Kung, is more likely to be used for healing unless the situation is extremely urgent.

"This thing might be more useful if given to Himakage..." Thinking of the so-called "Projection Technique" that Miyauchi Hiyage possessed, he had already emptied most of the warehouse of the Jujutsu High. If Miyauchi Hiyage could also project this gem, and then sell those projected items as consumables in the future, it should still have a good market.

Shinomiya Kaguya pondered this, she concealed the existence of the gem, only mentioning in the Chat Group that she had successfully landed using telekinesis through a lottery draw.

Kaguya: "According to the description of the reward, the ability I obtained comes from the power of a hero in One-Punch Man known as 'Hellish Blizzard'."

Putting everything else aside, the title "Hellish Blizzard" does sound quite impressive, but who would have thought that this guy is just a B-rank hero in the story?

Even though her actual skill level is among the top A-rank heroes, she is still a long way from being an S-rank hero, not to mention compared to her sister, Tatsumaki, who also possesses Tatsumaki.

Even so, Fubuki's telekinesis is indeed at the first level in this world.

At least among the girls in the group who got a chance to win a prize by guessing Morioh correctly, her ability is already among the best.

Gokō Ruri acquired a set of elemental magic, but the casting conditions seem rather complicated.

Hoshino Ai gained an affinity with spirits, and with this ability, she gained a large amount of Mana. However, because she has not mastered other magic, she is not yet able to use this Mana freely.

In addition, a few unlucky ones drew some useless items and skills with rather ambiguous properties.

Just like Umaru, she drew a set of mahjong tiles that she can use to fight people. I wonder if she'll have to carry a set of mahjong tiles with her every time she goes out from now on.

At the same time, there should be quite a few people who haven't yet shared the abilities they've acquired.

Shinomiya Kaguya turned her attention to Shiina Mashiro, who was silent and reserved in the group chat.

Although the other party hadn't said a word tonight, Shinomiya Kaguya was 80% certain that the other party had received a reward, and that the reward would certainly not be worse than her own.

She couldn't help but tag Shiina Mashiro in the group chat, wanting to know if she had received any reward.

In fact, Shiina Mashiro did receive more rewards.

She also had two draws, but one of them was a high-level draw, which gave her a set of Final Fantasy Imagecrafter job templates along with a complete set of endgame gear.

The actual effect is similar to the Super Beast Imitation Drawing used by Sai in Hokage, but the combat power is higher, the scope of application is wider, and there are fewer restrictions.

Not only can it materialize the animals and weapons it draws, but it can even change the surrounding environment with its paintbrush when it has enough Mana.

From Sorcerers's perspective, it's like having a special domain built in. As long as you level up this profession step by step, you will naturally have combat power of at least the highest level.

Chapter 279: The Girl Who Hid the Reward

Miyauchi Hiyage held Shiina Mashiro's professional Soul Crystal in his hand, examining it closely. This thing was the core item for the Imagecrafter.

It not only records dozens of skill marks for this profession and how to use these skills, but it can also be regarded as an external Mana organ. As long as Shiina Mashiro wears it, she can freely use this Soul Crystal to absorb and control the Mana in the atmosphere for her own use.

Of course, Shiina Mashiro change, can only use the most basic Tri-Color Magic.

Moreover, this Soul Crystal has already recognized Shiina Mashiro as its master, so even if someone else obtains it, they will not be able to use it to change their class to become a new Imagecrafter.
