Huh?
Akira, who had just stepped through the front door, stopped in confusion, his gaze directed toward his room.
What's going on?
Why are Yuki and Mom's icons overlapping?
Could it be—those two???
Holy crap!
Could it be like that?
A thought flashed through Akira's mind.
Even the sound of closing the door was controlled to the minimum.
Then, Perception Manipulation unfolded.
He leaped and arrived outside his room door.
Instant Strike.
"Mmm~!"
Although Yumi Suou knew Akira had returned, she couldn't perceive that Akira had already entered the room through his ability.
Akira is back.
As soon as he returns to the room and sees her like this, he'll definitely pounce on her impatiently, right?
Sigh.
Just thinking about Akira's… she couldn't control herself.
Especially in the dead of night.
"Mmm."
Yuki Suou, hiding under the bed, also covered her small mouth.
Mom is really something—why is she doing this?
It's making me feel a bit uncontrollable too.
Before, it was always discreet, watching quietly.
But today, she's directly lying under the bed.
She just hoped Brother wouldn't discover her in a bit.
Otherwise, the scene would be so awkward.
Sigh~!
She shouldn't have hidden just now.
Otherwise, how would there be such a chain reaction?
However, there are quite a few similar plots in manga.
The thought alone inexplicably excited Yuki Suou.
If it was really as she imagined, that would be truly explosive.
Akira, standing at the doorway, was a little stunned to see the two people—one on the bed and one under it.
Well, well, well.
So this is how they overlap.
It seems he really came back late today.
Even Mom had joined Yuki's ranks.
But this was also a good thing.
At least it showed that his training of Mom had been very successful.
She was no longer able to leave him.
As for Yuki, she had always been under his control.
Interesting.
Truly interesting.
Akira had already roughly figured out what had happened, and he silently went downstairs, pretending to come home and go upstairs as usual.
Thump.
Thump.
The not-so-heavy footsteps on the stairs, however, seemed to strike Yumi Suou and Yuki Suou's chests.
Yumi Suou was extremely nervous.
No.
No way.
Though not even one percent of Akira's, a person's body did have its limits.
Whew~! Whew!
If Akira saw her like this, he would definitely laugh at her.
Thinking of this, Yumi Suou lazily reached out to grab the tissues from the bedside.
Because it had just ended,
Yumi Suou accidentally knocked the tissue box to the floor.
Pfft.
The sound was very soft—
so soft that you couldn't hear it if you didn't listen carefully.
But it was this tiny movement that made all of Yuki Suou's muscles tense up.
Don't be discovered.
Don't be discovered.
Long, slender fingers appeared in Yuki Suou's vision, and with them, Yumi Suou's dark hair.
Just then—click!
The door opened.
Yumi Suou instantly looked up.
"Mom? You're here."
"I just went to your room to look for you."
"Shh, keep it down—it wouldn't be good if Yuki heard us."
Yumi Suou was very nervous.
She didn't even notice the marks left on the floor.
Akira smiled, his gaze meaningfully sweeping under the bed.
Yumi Suou glanced at the shorts in her hand.
Then she looked at the tissues on the floor.
Her face instantly flushed red—
like a child caught by her parents.
"Mom, so you were here."
Click.
Akira naturally walked to the bedside and turned on the bedside lamp.
A hazy yellow glow spread out,
instantly illuminating Yumi Suou's charm.
Her long hair cascaded like a waterfall.
On her exquisite face, there was a noticeable blush.
Her whole body exuded a faint pink, like a ripe peach—
making people unconsciously want to get close and pick her.
Ripe.
Too ripe.
Especially the shyness on Yumi Suou's face—
it was simply indescribable.
"Mom, you go up—I'll help you."
"Mm."
Yumi Suou lifted her nightgown and returned to the bed.
Akira came to the bedside, picked up the tissue box, pulled out two sheets, and wiped the residue from the floor.
Perhaps due to being too nervous, he accidentally knocked Yumi Suou's shoe under the bed.
Yuki Suou's heart pounded.
This time, she was going to be caught by Big Brother.
But if it was Big Brother, it didn't seem as embarrassing as being caught by Mom.
Akira lowered his head to retrieve the shoe from under the bed.
The next second, their eyes met.
Akira showed a look of surprise (feigned).
And Yuki Suou smiled playfully, making a shushing gesture.
"Akira, what are you doing down there?"
"Nothing—the floor's a bit dirty, I'm just wiping it."
"Oh, oh."
"Do you want me to help you today?"
"Perhaps not."
Akira sat down by the bed, and Yumi Suou had already crawled next to him.
Her eyes were filled with gentle smiles and surprise.
"As expected of young people."
Yumi Suou's arm had already bent down.
It was rare for her to have such a clear advantage today—she had to make good use of it.
"Mom, this~!"
Yuki Suou, under the bed, felt that Akira's state was off, and her heart clenched fiercely again.
Fortunately, things developed smoothly afterward.
Otherwise, she was really afraid that her mother would notice the anomaly and pull her out from under the bed.
But what would happen after she was pulled out?
She couldn't imagine.
Perhaps good. Perhaps bad.
But it's better not to expose him now.
Otherwise, Mom will definitely move out of this small villa.
Looking at Akira's feet still resting on the edge of the bed,
Yuki felt she should give Akira a heads-up.
Huh!
Akira suddenly felt a foreign object on his heel.
But soon, as a Trainer, he understood what it was.
This girl—she's really bold.
"Akira, how was it?"
"Mom, it was great."
"Is that so?"
Yumi Suou smiled radiantly.
"Oh, that's right, Akira."
Yumi Suou tucked her long hair behind her ear. "Father said you are now the head of the Suou Family."
"What did you do today that made Father acknowledge you so quickly?"
"It's simple, really. The gathering place was attacked by Monsters."
"I saved some wealthy businessmen, and the profits met the assessment target."
Snoring.
"Eh?"
"Monsters that could break in there? They must have been very powerful."
"Not really, but that Monster could fly."
"No wonder."
"Mom…"
Having cooperated with Akira many times with unspoken understanding,
Yumi Suou immediately understood what Akira meant.
She knelt on the bed, her ankle resting on the side.
"Mmm, Akira, don't mess around."
"Heh heh—who told Mom to be so cute? I just want to tease her."
"Oh, Akira, you really are something."
Yumi Suou blushed, not resisting this teasing.
Rather than teasing, it amplified her anticipation.
"Alright, alright."
"Here I come."
Pfft.
It was as decisive as a plane crashing into a city skyscraper.
The explosion instantly shocked Yumi Suou.
"Mmm! Akira~!"
So good at it.
Akira is really too skilled.
He knows her every weakness.
Yumi Suou on the bed seemed to be completely controlled.
She felt her thoughts slow down considerably.
Yuki, under the bed, found an opportunity and crawled out.
After the initial tremor, a mischievous glint immediately appeared in Yuki's eyes.
Slap!
"Ah, Akira."
Yumi Suou had no idea who was causing trouble.
But this strike made her arm lose strength.
She ended up lying on the bed in a somewhat difficult yoga pose.
"Stop messing around—hurry back."
Seeing Yuki looking quite interested, Akira lowered his voice.
[Character: Yumi Suou]
[Potential: A]
[Loyalty: 100]
[Strength: 13.0]
[Agility: 14.5]
[Stamina: 13.2]
[Skills: Cooking LV4, Housework LV2]
[Evolution Charge: 99%]
[Status: Fatigued]
Akira carried Yumi Suou back to her own room.
A thin blanket covered her, but it couldn't hide her perfect curves.
99%.
What a frustrating threshold.
How about waiting until after 12 o'clock for another round?
Looking at the smile on Yumi Suou's face,
Akira felt it was entirely feasible.
He wondered what kind of abilities Mom would evolve.
But the next period of time should be spent completing Yuki's training.
He glanced at the little time remaining.
It seemed he could only quickly complete the training and then wait for the refresh.
Thinking of this,
Akira turned and left Yumi Suou's room.
As soon as he closed Yumi Suou's door,
Yuki eagerly clung to Akira.
"Brother, do you want to rest?"
"Do you think I need to rest?"
"I'm just worried about Brother. Didn't you see Mom was so tired she fell asleep?"
"Mom is Mom, I am I."
Akira didn't return to his room but went straight downstairs to the kitchen for a drink of water.
"I know Brother is amazing, so next, it's my turn to play."
First, under the bed, Yuki had already been somewhat affected.
And then, briefly… it made her emotions soar even higher.
At that moment, Yuki no longer cared about much else.
When the timing seemed right,
his waist suddenly sank.
"Mmm."
Akira had originally intended to go to the kitchen before speaking.
This, however, made him start running directly.
[Jittering Spear Art]
In an instant, Yuki Suou's training limit rapidly increased.
After a short while,
Yuki Suou's training limit hit its cap, with even some overflow.
[Character: Yuki Suou]
[Potential: S]
[Loyalty: 100]
[Strength: 8.5]
[Agility: 8.1]
[Endurance: 8.7]
[Skill: Jack of All Trades]
[Evolution Charge: 40%]
[Status: Sleeping]
"Ah~!"
Akira put down the water cup in his hand… With a thought, he took out his last unbound platinum capture ball.
The capture ball gently bumped against Yuki Suou's leg.
A stream of light instantly pulled her into the capture ball.
The indicator light flashed three times.
The system's prompt sound came instantly.
[Host: Akira]
[Profession: Trainer]
[Strength: 734.4]
[Agility: 716.5]
[Endurance: 705.9]
[Skills: Trainer Basic Skill LV4 (Proficiency 3%)]
...
"Congratulations, host—you have learned Jack of All Trades, elevated to Ten-Skill Polymath."
[Ten-Skill Polymath: Can learn teachable skills without limit and quickly reach mastery. (Excluding System abilities)
Very good.
While his stats surged by dozens of points,
he also gained a skill that enhances learning ability.
As long as it's a teachable ability, he can quickly learn it, reach the realm of mastery, and there will be no negative effects of limited improvement in the future.
However, abilities granted by the system are excluded.
This should include skills directly strengthened from characters.
However, even so, Akira didn't feel that this platinum capture ball was a waste.
After all, in the world of One-Punch Man, there are many abilities that can be acquired through learning.
Especially from those powerful individuals who are not target characters.
Bang!
Atomic Samurai.
Moreover, this skill doesn't forcibly require completing an apprenticeship to take effect.
So, he only needs to fight these guys once, or watch more of their battles, to learn all of their martial arts.
Technology is the same.
Bang!
Makoy slammed his fist on the table.
The sturdy desk instantly cracked from his punch, but blood also flowed from his hand.
"Suou Family."
"In the end, it was the Suou Family who benefited."
"Uncle, why don't you let me go?"
Samurai Sword's expression was disdainful.
At the beginning of the incident, he had already transferred with Makoy.
Although he knew there was a very powerful S-Class Hero who had slain Asura Kabuto at the scene,
he did not know that the one who acted was Akira, the current head of the Suou Family.
"No need. Our informant has already learned from the Public Security about the enemy who killed your father."
"You can go and deal with your own matters first."
"As for Dr. Genus and those guys, it's not something that can be solved so simply."
"Understood, Uncle."
Samurai Sword indeed kept the revenge for his father's death deeply in his heart.
Such a kind and amiable old man who protected and cared for him was cruelly murdered.
From the moment he learned of his father's death,
he swore to make the killer die a hundred times more painfully than the old man.
At this time, Makoy found him and gave him a way to become stronger.
"Who is it? Who is the killer? Uncle Makoy."
"Here~! It's Saeko Busujima—the owner of the dojo in the vicinity of the scene. A high school student with excellent Swordsmanship."
Looking at Saeko Busujima's title as the national Swordsmanship champion in the material,
Samurai Sword's gaze grew colder.
Seeing Samurai Sword's flames of revenge burning fiercely,
Makoy pulled out an exquisite wooden box from the drawer of his office desk.
He slowly opened it.
Inside was an exquisite bullet.
"Uncle, this is…?"
"It's for you. Eat it, and it can boost your combat power."
"Okay, Uncle."
Samurai Sword swallowed the bullet without hesitation.
In an instant, Samurai Sword's veins bulged, and his muscles swelled.
Looking at his arm, which was as thick as a normal person's thigh, Makoy nodded with satisfaction.
This was the flesh and blood of the Gun Devil, obtained at a huge cost by that person.
Even a small piece could make ordinary devils more ferocious and significantly increase their strength.
Samurai Sword is a devil man, and there was a risk of him exploding to death after eating the Gun Devil's flesh and blood.
But Makoy didn't care at all, as he was just a pawn.
"Very good—you are truly reassuring like this."
"Go. Take my two trusted subordinates; they can help you arrange the relevant matters."
"Yes, Uncle."
Samurai Sword felt his whole body swelling intensely, and his heart was beating almost four times faster than a normal person's.
Click.
Samurai Sword's hand gently rested on the door.
The doorknob twisted and deformed in his hand.
He glanced at it irritably.
With a loud crash, he burst out the door.
"Brother, this is…?"
Yuki Suou felt like she was dreaming.
Just moments ago, she had clearly been… with her brother, but only a few minutes later, she regained consciousness.
Moreover, her entire body had reached its optimal state.
Akira handed Yuki Suou a glass of ice water. "Drink some water first to calm your nerves."
"I'll tell you slowly…"
As Akira recounted, Yuki Suou's expression continuously changed.
"I thought I had suddenly gained superpowers, but it turns out it was all because of my brother."
"And that old man—seriously, if it weren't for his obstruction, I would have definitely connected with my brother much earlier."
