Volume 1 Chapter 16: Can't Sit Still? That's Impossible

Kurume's face turned ugly.

She mustered up the courage to try and frame Kiyohei, but her plan was exposed on the spot. Her own video had become her own damning evidence.

Kurume's expression twisted, and the charming, bashful look on her face disappeared in an instant. She realized that this person was even more real than she had thought. When he couldn't be extorted, he revealed his true face just like that?

"I me...

013: Investing in RECT

"As long as it’s your command, I will do my best!"

Mifune was in a state of excitement. At his physiological age of over thirty, he felt like he had inexhaustible energy.

"I'm interested in RECT Progress. Do you have any information about it?"

RECT Progress is a powerful game development and design company in the world of Sword Art Online. Its strength is second only to the company that developed SAO, Argus.

Shortly after Argus developed ...

012: [Learning] and [Teaching]

When Momo fell down, he was still a sixteen-year-old handsome youth, but when he got up, his life force had dwindled to 75 years, and he had transformed into a mature and composed 25-year-old adult.

And Momo used a mature tone of voice to persuade Reimu, leaving her speechless.

"Hmph, go ahead and choose your additional skill. Be careful, if it expires, I'll cancel your freedom to choose."

"Okay, okay, I need to be mature and composed." 2023-07-04 08:22:41 +0000 UTC View Post

011: Level Up to LV3

Time passed day by day, and Momo temporarily settled in the Masayoshi household.

When Momo entered this world, it was August 31, 2022. The opening of SAO, Sword Art Online, was scheduled for September 6, 2022, at 1:00 PM on Friday. And now, the date has already reached September 4.

During these few days, Momo was far from idle. He created a legend within the Masayoshi household.

In just three days, the three wealthiest individuals from the United S...

Volume 1 Chapter 15: Caught in the Act, What to Do?

Kiyohei found himself led by the girl to a storage room filled with cleaning supplies and various gambling tools.

This time, she had learned her lesson and carefully checked that there was no one else in the room before closing the door. She turned to face Kiyohei with a hesitant expression, as if struggling with something.

"Um... Do you have a moment, Kiyobe?" she asked, pretending to be naive.

"My name is Kiyohei Ay...

Question:

I've been cornered in the men's restroom by a girl who isn't dressed properly. What should I do now?

Waiting online, quite urgent.

Kiyohei didn't expect to encounter such a scandalous encounter right after receiving the system. Even though gaining the system might give him some protagonist aura, this was too soon!

What was going on with this girl? Why would she choose to come to the men's re...

Volume 1 Chapter 13: A Free System, Do You Want It or Not?

At the beginning of his time travel, Kiyohei didn't dismiss the idea that he might possess the "standard" system that many time travelers had. He had tried various methods to activate a system.

In some novels, the system only appeared when a person was on the verge of death. Kiyohei even attempted bungee jumping from a great height to trigger it.

As an eleven-year-old boy sneaking onto a bungee jumping platform, he s...

010: Sacrifice

"Uncle, we have arrived. This is the residence I have chosen for you, complete with ten servants. If you have any needs, you can inform them, and if you need to contact me, feel free to find me anytime."

Mifune appeared humble in front of Momo, devoid of the aura of Japan's wealthiest man, instead resembling a respectful junior toward his elder.

Compared to the grandeur of welcoming Momo, Mifune arrangements at the Masayoshi Household were relatively low-key. ...

009: Entering the Masayoshi Residence

The night passed without a word.

Momo slept comfortably, soundly sleeping until morning. Reimu, who didn't need to sleep, surprisingly got infected by Momo's sleeping face and lazily fell into a deep slumber using Momo's pillow.

When Momo woke up, the first thing he saw was the beautiful and pure face of Reimu, devoid of any impurities in its tranquility.

Momo almost couldn't resist rubbing against that pretty face, but just as he ...

"By the way, Doctor. I'm tired today. If I can see you a bit earlier tomorrow, maybe I'll share a little secret with you."

The gleam in the chubby doctor's eyes almost popped out, and he quickly said, "Yes! Yes! I'll definitely be the first one to check on Mr. Masayoshi's condition tomorrow. I won't disturb you any longer, Mr. Masayoshi."

Yuyuko couldn't help but smile as she watched the chubby doctor retreat respectfully.

"It's truly a disgusting theory. Do you consider everything in the world as chips for trading? Can emotions and morals also be traded?"

Reimu questioned, and Momo countered with a question of his own.

"Why not?"

"Then tell me, how do you see love as a transaction?" Said Reimu

"It's simple. The man is willing to provide true love, material wealth, care, and loyalty. The woman does the same. Both parties enter into a marriage ag...

006: I Am Neigh But a Merchant

Reimu remained in a state of shock but dutifully carried out her responsibilities, informing Momo about the status of the transaction.

An identity card and a bank card suddenly appeared in Momo's pocket. Upon inspection, one was a pitch-black bank card that seemed quite valuable, while the other was his identification document, bearing the name Momo Masayoshi, listed as the uncle of Mifune Masayoshi.

"Ah, I'm so tired!"

005: Trading Life for Money

Momo arrived at the garden, his head swerving left and right gently, he was looking around for his first mortal client.

Reimu watched Momo's searching gaze, still unaware of what this guy was up to.

Though they hadn't spent much time together, Momo always did things that exceeded her imagination. Now, she wanted to see what this ninety-year-old man could really do.

"There it is!"

Momo looked towards a corner of the garden where a middl...

004: Potential Client

"Do you know how many things a human can do with that measly 10 years?”

Momo replied with a smile, his expression is calm and profound, seemingly unaffected by the ninety years of lifespan he had just given away.

Under the gaze of Reimu, the young Momo began to age rapidly. His hair turned white, his muscles rapidly deteriorated, and his whole body became hunched once again.

Momo now appeared as a frail ninety-year-old man. Struggling to stand, ...

Momo's voice spread far and wide, attracting the attention of passersby. When they saw Momo, with blood on his head, spreading his arms and embracing the sky while uttering incomprehensible chuunibyou phrases, they shook their heads and sighed.

Another chuunibyou kid. Such a waste of his decent appearance.

"Are you out of your mind?"

Reimu grabbed Momo by the hair, trying to make him lower his head, and said, "That's a god, the greatest deity...

"Crash!"

With a loud noise, a flowerpot plummeted from the sky and smashed onto Momo's head, knocking him down.

"What happened?"

"Sir, are you okay?"

"Call an ambulance!"

Onlookers gathered around, and a few kind-hearted people rushed to help. Momo struggled to get up, elegantly shaking off the blood from his head, and spoke fluent Japanese, saying, "It's okay, just a minor incident. No need to trouble everyone."

"I've won."

In the vast expanse of the starry sky, with the Earth as the backdrop, three individuals stand divided into two sides.

On one side is an elderly man with snow-white hair, while on the other side are two girls seated on thrones.

The old man wears a world-weary expression but carries a victorious smile on his face.

Synopsis: 

What is money? Money is not just paper currency; it represents value and price.

Everything has its own value, and every value has its price. With enough price, you can make the gods nod; with enough value, you can subjugate the entire world.

This has nothing to do with good or evil, beauty or ugliness, and it's not about being noble or inferior. It is simply the fundamental law governing the operation of all civilizations.

As Kuroki spoke, he didn't avoid Kiyohei and intentionally raised an eyebrow at him.

"You agree with me, right?"

Kiyohei remained silent, dealing the cards quietly.

"Tsk, you have no sense of humor." Kuroki clicked his tongue. "Forget about them, let's focus on our game."

"Yeah."

Kiyohei rubbed his temples, no longer paying attention to the girls' situation. He put away his playful thoughts and started to...

He won several rounds in a row, but Kuroki's expression didn't look too good.

"Kiyohei-kun, why did you intentionally lose to me?" With the crowd dispersing, Kuroki couldn't help but ask, "You didn't put any effort into this game, did you?"

Kuroki had prepared in advance before the gambling started, determined to make Kiyohei lose without any doubt.

However, before he could even make a move, Kiyohei started...

"By the way, Ayanokoji-san, my name is Kuroki," he finally remembered to introduce himself at this point.

He took the deck of cards from the guy with the "Stupid Dog" tag around his neck, emphasizing it as he handed it to Kiyohei. "Take a look, this is a brand new deck of cards, opened right in front of you."

Kiyohei nodded and checked the cards. There were 54 cards, none missing, and the back pattern was the...

Although Kiyohei was somewhat surprised by his words, he had prepared himself mentally beforehand and quickly caught on.

"I don't mind gambling," Kiyohei said, frowning, "but we're still new to each other, aren't we?"

"It's precisely because we're not familiar that we should give it a try," the other boy grinned. "In this school, not gambling is unacceptable. You might ...

Kiyohei initially wanted to say that he was also forcefully placed here, but he thought better of it and remained silent.

It would ruin the harmonious atmosphere he had finally managed to establish with just one sentence.

Speaking of which, there was something else that surprised Kiyohei.

After learning about his enrollment, Kiyohei's father gave him an extra 2 million yen, apart from his pocket money. Moreover, he unus...

Kiyohei understood the meaning in his eyes. "I see, it's about money, isn't it?"

His eyes lit up, and he nodded eagerly. "Exactly, it's about money, a lot of money!"

He thought saying that would make Kiyohei back down, but...

"I see..." Kiyohei felt relieved and smiled. "Don't worry, even though I may not appear so, I still have some money. I can afford the tuition and living expenses."

Kiyohei had anticipated that attending this ...

Atsuomi acted swiftly. The next day, he called Kiyohei to inform him that he would be taking the exam in one week, seemingly not wanting to leave any room for regrets.

When Kiyohei mentioned that he might not pass the exam, his father specifically said, "I've already made arrangements. Even if you slept through this exam, you'll definitely pass."

The school's standards were on par with Advanced Nurturing High School. Could he really secure...

Although Kiyohei's body was that of a junior high student at the time, his inner thoughts were already those of an adult. He didn't have the inclination to spend time making friends or participating in collective activities.

His sole focus was on "making money."

He would skip school events like the cultural festival and sports day, and he didn't join any clubs. He often left early as well.

In the eyes of the teachers, he was...

In fact, every room in this house, except for the bathroom, had hidden listening devices secretly installed by him. The conversations between the Ayanokoji brothers, Kiyotaka and Kiyohei Ayanokoji, were always within his surveillance.

Initially... he had high expectations for his own son, believing that like Kiyotaka,...

It had been five years since his reincarnation. This question had been lingering in Kiyohei's mind for five years.

He was still pondering, not only about the incident of being hit by a dump truck and sent flying, but also about unexpectedly crossing over. Even encountering such an improbable event, he couldn't figu...

After Kiyohei's condition improved somewhat, thanks to the excuse of "amnesia," his indulgent father specifically found him a private tutor.

The tutor was a female graduate student majoring in education, a gentle older sister with a quiet appearance and glasses.

In her spare time between classes, she would come to the hospital to teach Kiyohei basic Japanese reading and writing, as well as general knowledge that even elementary school ...

Just as he had graduated from graduate school and landed a job at a fairly good company, thinking that he had escaped the hardships and would no longer have to ...
