476 Raise them and take advantage of them! (1/2)

”Although the names are appropriate, overly simple names lack recognition,” Seiji commented.

”That's right, Sister. Apart from an ability's name being descriptive of the power in question, what's even more important is personality,” Hisashi added. ”It's just like a name brand. Having a cool ability name is a man's romance!”

”…Then you guys feel free to slowly think of names on your own.”

Kaede turned around and began flapping her wings as she started flying again.

It felt really nice to be flying. However, she was currently still unfamiliar with the action, and wanted to practice more.

She flew around slowly in the dojo, and it was evident that she was flying rather clumsily like a young bird just learning how to fly.

Seiji and Hisashi watched her practice flying.

Although her flying was rather rigid in her movements, this scene still mysteriously managed to touch them.

”It's amazing that she's actually able to fly.”

”Yeah. It's such a pity that she can't just fly around outside as she pleases.”

The two of them silently observed the flying blonde beauty for a while.

In the end, they were unable to come up with names for these new abilities that satisfied them.

Well, it was only a joke topic to begin with, so they didn't mind so much.

However, with the fact that Hisashi and Kaede had now become Awakened, Seiji's Knights of the Round Table dating sim creation group now had over half its members as Spiritual Ability users now. That was no joke.

A Spiritual Ability user faction… was beginning to form in his dating sim group.

Although Seiji felt that it was cool at first to imagine such a thing, he was now concerned as the group's leader and ”king” about things becoming like this in reality.

There were now a total of six Spiritual Ability users in his dating sim group. Apart from himself and Mika, the other four were all Awakened. And currently, the Awakened had a rather awkward situation in the mystical society.

Seiji really wanted to be able to protect his friends. However, the things he was capable of were limited. Even though he became a Yin-Yang Master, there would still be situations that were difficult or impossible to deal with.

He had to become stronger. Or…

Seiji had an idea.

He didn't know if it would work or not… should he try it out?

He kept thinking it over as he returned home to the Uehara apartments.

It was currently a bit after breakfast, and Reo was in the midst of preparing to go to elementary school.

Mai called Seiji at this time and informed him that she had already eliminated the pest causing security issues for the elementary school and that he wouldn't have to worry any longer.

Since the problem was taken care of, that meant Reo no longer needed an escort to school. She happily went to her elementary school on her own.

Seiji gave Shika an explanation of what happened last night. However, he intentionally left out the part about himself being injured so that she wouldn't worry.

He had already cured himself using his [Beginner-level Healing] magic, and rested for an entire night. He felt that he was fine already. At most, all he needed was a checkup at the hospital a bit later.

Seiji contemplated the idea he had a while longer before coming to a decision. He made a save file in his system at this point in time, then contacted his younger sister Hana.

”Your dueling equipment will arrive at Natsuya Yoruhana's residence in two days' time. At that time, try it out, she'll be responsible for making the final adjustments for you.” The cat-eared hat girl appeared on his computer screen and greeted him with those words. ”All this equipment is merely being loaned to you. Although I doubt that you'll be able to break it, I still need to add on that it's best if you don't break the equipment.”

”Thank you, my dear sister,” Seiji gave his sincere thanks.

”Don't disgust me like that so early in the morning.” As always, Hana didn't enjoy such a response.

”Hana-sama, this humble one has something he would like to discuss with you.”

”…What is it this time?”

Seiji couldn't help but imagine the cat ears on Hana's hat stiffening in a cute manner as he noticed the cautious tone she spoke in.
