Chapter 22: Chapter 22- Skills and destination
Chiaki: [Can you meet me tomorrow?]
While he was eating food with his family, Ryouya received a text from Chiaki for the first time after he left her house yesterday.
He had no clue what was going through her mind yesterday and why it seemed she had plotted everything that could lay him into her pants. However, Ryouya was concerned about something else... something relating to Souta so he answered in assent.
Me: [I will be there at 10.]
There was a slight pause despite her status remaining green...like she didn't expect such a response but soon her reply arrived.
Chiaki: [Great! I will make your favorite cookies tomorrow.^_^]
Ryouya chuckled at that which didn't go unnoticed by the other two.
"Did something good happen, Ryouya?" Aiko asked with a soft smile as she continued eating the full-course meal she had prepared for everyone.
Since she got extra hours to sleep in the morning, and her children didn't have breakfast, she went slightly overboard with the lunch.
"Ah...a friend of mine is inviting me for movies and stuff since tomorrow is a weekend."
Ryouya had to go out tonight to get himself a power-up and raising Chiaki's name here would have been suspicious since Ryouya rarely goes to her house during the night.
But then again, his family wasn't unfamiliar with his social life to believe his words easily.
"What friend? Aren't you a loner?"
"Kaede!" Aiko widened her eyes with a complaining tone as she glared at her daughter for being so...blunt.
However, Aiko also knew what Kaede said was true since Ryouya had never talked about any friend of his other than Chiaki before nor brought anyone back home with him. And even with her, it was Chiaki who kept the friendship alive by pestering Ryouta despite how much he tried to escape her.
"I just made some recently...I am trying to change." Ryouya kept his voice firm without providing any instance of doubt.
Regardless, Kaede had doubts about his words so she added, "Can I get the number of this friend, just in case your phone suddenly gets lost or something?"
"He's a guy." Aiko raised her brows hearing that slightly heavier tone which came out in a way like Ryouya utterly despised the thought of having a random man's number in his sister's phone.
Even Kaede seemed slightly flustered feeling his domineering aura before she curled her fingers back and didn't say anything after that.
Ryouya felt slightly regretful for making a scene here but well, everything would be fine until he could return home on time.
"If it gets late, please call me. I will come and pick you up." Aiko chimed, to lighten up the mood to which Ryouya nodded, even though he would never bother his mother to take him back home when she finally got her much-needed weekend.

Ryouya left his house nearly at four in the afternoon, with a backpack hung over his shoulder.
His destination was far so he didn't insist on walking and took a train to the western side of the city.
Since it was the weekend there weren't many people around yet for some reason, Ryouya was facing an odd situation.
'Why it feels like everyone is looking at me...' Even on the street, he found many gazes following him around and some even turned to look at him, which was honestly very awkward and bizarre.
[Your charm has naturally elevated after your first real experience after your reawakening. As an Incubus your charm would be second to nothing and your allure would attract every being, regardless of gender.]
That made sense yet at the same time felt a little troubling.
Ryouya has gotten used to living a life where no one notices him nor pays attention to what he does even in public so he was getting a little uncomfortable by those many glances.
However, since there was nothing he could do, Ryouya tried distracting himself as he asked the System, 'Can you tell me my skills which I can use to...you know...'
[Seduce woman?]
Ryouya felt the System was deliberately teasing him here since it already knew Ryouya's intention yet the Guide had to ask.
Nevertheless, he nodded.
[So majorly you have five skills currently in possession that would help you woo a woman.]
[1. Pleasure spot deduction(200 DE per second):- It allows you to detect all those points of a woman and the spots that excite them the most. It could be used both physically and visually. Along with visual support, you can even detect a woman's sweet spot through touch and heat radiation.]
[2. Love potion:- Your spit works as a seduction charm that can ensnare any woman to become love-struck by you and provide an intolerable sensation of mating. It can influence the thought process of the targets. However, once you release the spit-out, it needs to be used within an hour or the effect of the aphrodisiac will vanish.]
[3. Magnet(200 D.E per minute):- The smell of your sweat and your natural fragrance could be utilized as a charmer and make the people around you, drawn in your direction. ]
[4. Stimulating touch(200 DE per use):- Just a faint brush of your fingers would bring your target to orgasm or if excessively near to their climax, which would allow you to play your cards right and get them into your bed.]
[5. Seed of loyalty: You can imprint your target through a ritual that would ensure that your secret as an incubus would never get revealed and create a bond between you and your target that would never break until you don't desire or either of you die.]
Ryouya read the texts that filled his vision, again and again.
Reading the word 'target' irked him slightly but he didn't point it out and evaluated the options he could rely on from here on.
'Does my spit attracts woman to me or horny in general?' He had to know it since it wouldn't be too surprising if someone got excited because of his love potion and ended up sleeping with someone else.
[No, it won't work like that. A small dose or big dose would only make a woman attracted to you and you alone. A hefty amount of potion would make someone disgusted just by the thought of sleeping with someone other than you.]
'Damn...' This was an overpowered skill, Ryouya noted, and the fact that it comes without any expense, ticked the skill as the most useful.
'And about the Magnet...what would be the radius I can cover with this skill in use and is there any way to release the skill for a single target?'
[The parameter of your skill depends on how much you are willing to spend. Each hundred DE points would allow you to cover fifty meters around you. And about that single target use, then yes, you can, but it would take time for you to reach that level.]
Ryouya hummed in understanding, as he leaned in that seat with a thoughtful look.
Truth be told, the skills in his possession was more than enough to seduce most of the woman regardless of their beauty and status. But he needed a platform to come across his 'targets' and gain some much-needed demonic energy.
'Hmm....I need to hurry up since almost a day has passed...' While thinking to himself he boarded off the train and began walking toward his destination which wasn't much far.
Currently, he has around 1200 DE, thanks to the long nightly activities with Kaede but it was far from his goal. So to fill the gap, he has come to this place which was owned and managed by a person Ryouya never wanted to meet again.
"It's nice to see you again, Ryo~"
