Chapter 170: Meet Up (2)

—

Neji was finally done with his quest.

Unfortunately, amongst the three civilians he found earlier, only one had a quirk. So it took him a bit longer, but he had finally managed to complete the quest.

===

Technical know-how - Level 4: Allows the user to easily operate almost any electronic device.

Appraiser - Level 3: Allows the user to easily determine the worth of an item, and even guess how old they are.

Healthy Body - Level 5: Allows the user to have a healthy body. The higher the level, the more healthy the body is.

Multitasker - Level 4: Allows the user to be better at multitasking.

Body Reader - Level 7: Allows the user to accurately read body language to anticipate emotions and actions.

===

These are the civilian quirks he got. They weren't that strong in the battle aspect, but frankly, they were versatile enough to compromise for once.

Especially Body Reader, it was of the highest level. It might have been higher if the previous user wasn't a teenager. But the previous owner definitely made sure to use the quirk at any given chance to have brought it up to level-7. Neji appreciated this quirk because it will make his future flirting easier (not that he was ever having a hard time before).

With this, the quest was completed and notifications spread in front of Neji's eyes,

[The Quest, "Rise of the King", is completed!]

[Quest: You have gained a lot of power recently, but that doesn't mean you're invincible! Your final enemies can't even compare to the likes of Hisashi Midoriya, so even if you have the power to beat him it doesn't matter! Gain more power, for your life depends on it.

Objective: Kill 10 villains and steal their quirk!

Bonus Objective: Steal 5 quirks from innocents/heroes!

Reward: 10-levels worth of EXP (on top of what you'd get from killing), 5x HP Potions, 10x Stamina Potions, Magical ink.

Optional Reward: 2-levels worth of EXP, An Armour made by The Director of the Last Act.

Special Perk: During this quest, taking the Quirks of someone won't diminish their Tiers, so the exp you'd receive wouldn't be lessened.]

[You have completed the main objective!]

[Distributing rewards…]

[You have received Health Potions 5x!]

[You have received Stamina Potions 10x!]

[You have received 33,000 experience points!]

[You have levelled up!]

[You have levelled up!]

[You have levelled up!]

[You have levelled…!]

[You have…!]

[You have gained 10 Levels, you have reached Level 169!]

He was level 150 when he left the mansion this morning… He gained 9 levels from killing the 10 villains, and 10 more now. This growth speed was simply awesome. All these villains in Japan were just walking exp-bags for him at this point.

[You have received the item "Magical ink"!]

Neji looked into the description and was disappointed. It was a small ink bottle that had an endless supply of ink in it, and the user could change the colour of the ink as they wish, the ink also didn't need any pen to be used, a finger was enough, at last, it could also be written in empty air.

Useful for some people, but Neji didn't have any use for this.

[You have completed the bonus objective!]

[Distributing rewards…]

[You have received 9,000 experience points!]

[You have levelled up!]

[You have levelled up!]

[You have reached Level 171!]

[You have received "An Armour made by The Director of the Last Act", the 'Personal Super Armour'!]

Neji was interested to see its effects, though he would be really mad if he couldn't use this 'because he's a gamer'. Neji took out the item from within his inventory and… stared at it for a minute.

It was just plain white spandex. What the fuck? Where is the "Armour"? Deciding that thinking about it was useless, he opened the description of the item.

[Personal Super Armour: One of the first armours made by the Director. The God-Class spell, "Adaptability" is imbued within this item, it has no stats until it's worn for the first time.

–"Adaptability" makes this item a 'growth-type' item, as it can grow stronger along with the user (without hindering his growth). It also makes the costume 'suitable' for the user's powers, as in it'd turn invisible if the user has the power to turn invisible.

–The user can customise this armour anytime he wishes, as long as he's not wearing it at that moment.]

"Ah," Neji realised why it was just white spandex. He could customise it.

"Wait, this means I can use it right? It doesn't say anything about gamer restrictions."

[I believe you can use it, yes, master.]

The system confirmed his suspicion, making him smile. Well, the director might not be as bad as he previously thought him to be. This was exactly the thing he needed right now, as he had many quirks that would destroy any other costume/armour. The most important of them is Permeation which just makes all his armours useless.

Neji then focused his will on the spandex, feeling a click as he realised this will start taking any shape he wished right now. He wasn't feeling so creative so he simply made it take the shape of his previous Moon Knight Armour. Except this one didn't feel as heavy, heck it didn't even feel heavier than the spandex from a second earlier, as if all the metal blocks on the armour were an illusion.

Jumping into an abandoned apartment, Neji took off his clothes and [Equipped] the armour, feeling the solid structure press down on his body while feeling as light as ever.

[The Personal Super Armour is adjusting itself based on the user's power level!]

[Personal Super Armour (Legendary):

*+10% Attack Power

*+20% END

*+05% Movement Speed

*+10% SP recovery per second

*+50% Harmful Magic Resistance

*God-Class spell, <Adaptability>, and common-spell <LightWeight>, is embedded in this item.]

The stats weren't that great compared to the Moon Knight armour, but that was bearable just because of the spell imbued with it. The magic resistance was something to look up to, too.

"This is kinda really good." Neji smiled to himself- before his stomach grumbled.

"..."

Indeed, it's been a 'while' since he last ate. He should probably eat now, stamina potions didn't help with that.

[You have gained the status effect "Hunger", HP will drop by 1 every hour.]

…He really should go back and eat.

—?—

Neji reached his mansion and found an interesting sight upon walking inside.

"So, your fire can do both burning and healing as long as you wish?"

"Uh, yeah, that's how it works. I am still trying to figure out how and why, but there's been no progress. I also have to check the limits of the wound I can heal."

"O-oh, you haven't tested that yet? Wait, let me break a leg real quick-"

"Hey, hey, calm down! Stop!"

The scene was quite comical as Nejire and Momo tried to stop Rumi from kicking the wall, knowing too well that the wall will be the one 'broken' in this trial.

"Oh, you're back, young master." Kimi, walking out of the kitchen with a cup of coffee in her hand, looked at him. "Hm? How did you get back your armour?"

"Questions for later, I am hungry. Feed me." Neji walked towards her with his arms spread, but she stepped back.

"Can't you see the coffee in my hand? Stop trying to hug me."

"You look irresistible though." Neji yawned, falling on a couch. "You're looking gorgeous without the maid-outfit."

?

"Hmm~?" Kimi smiled a minx's smile at him. "Now I am not sure what you meant when you said 'hungry', heh."

She giggled, putting the coffee cup on the table and walking towards the kitchen. "Wait a minute, I will bring you food."

Neji nodded, yawning.

Unfortunately, while he could hold his hunger for a minute, he couldn't do the same with his eyelids. By the time Kimi returned and the other girls noticed him, Neji was sleeping like a baby.

He was feeling much refreshed and relieved today, as that's what power brought to a man.

Finally, he was decently strong.

Author's Note: Decently strong? Or just simply overpowered? We will see soon.
