T-Ten thousand?!
Ten... ten thousand points?!
Kitahara Takeru’s pupils widened in shock.
Never in his life had the system been so generous.
Granted, he’d only been living this second life for about a year—but still.
Is… is she worth that much?!
One date with Katō Megumi, and the points reward matched what he got from going out with ...

“Takeru?”
Hearing someone call his name, Kitahara Takeru turned around.
Standing beside him was a well-dressed, strikingly handsome young man.
The sight of the newcomer brought a smile to Takeru’s face.
“Kato-senpai? What brings you here?”
“Family gathering,” Kato Kei replied with a grin as he sat down across from Takeru. “Thought I was seeing thing...

The moment Aki Tomoya heard that Kasumigaoka Utaha had gone out with another guy last weekend, even his smile began to falter.
“Wait, who was that guy who looked like Aki?” Before Utaha could answer, Eriri’s expression darkened as she grabbed Utaha’s wrist.
Utaha had originally intended to respond to Tomoya’s question, b...

Kitahara Takeru ordered everything in one breath.
When it came time to pay, he casually handed over a single 1,000-yen note.

Despite trying everything—pleading, explaining, practically talking himself hoarse—Kitahara Takeru still couldn’t get Shijō Maki to hand over Kashiwagi Nagisa’s phone number.
He was fuming.

Since when can’t you even get a friend’s number from a friend?

When Kitahara Takeru returned, Shijō Maki had already finished her call.
Seeing how long he’d taken, she frowned. “Takeru, where did you go? Why were you gone so long?”
He forced a strained smile. “Stomach issues. Took a while. Anyway, how did it go?”
“Ah, that… It was just… y’know…”
At the mention, Maki suddenly turned bashful, fumbling over her w...

The moment the question left her lips, Kitahara Takeru’s guard shot up.

Shijō Maki stared at Kitahara Takeru for a long time.
Eventually, she looked away with a faint huff. “D-Don’t think just because you gave me flowers, I’ll forgive you.”
The moment Kitahara heard that, he knew—her anger had mostly passed.
All the better he’d gone out of his way to stop by the florist beforehand.
He understood tsunderes.
No one. Understo...

Gary eyed the bewildered Iron Bundle, looking skeptical.

The call connected again, and on the other end was still Professor Turo—except this time, his attitude was completely different.
Turo’s face was grave as he spoke:
[Arven, don’t come to the Zero Lab!]
Arven was left completely baffled.
But Turo hung up after just that one sentence, and, as expected, Professor Sada called immediately afterward.

To be honest, [Dragon Dance] and Gible didn’t create quite the earth-shattering chemistry he’d hoped for.
Even if Gible was a top-tier pseudo-legendary Pokémon, the phrase “late bloomer” existed for a reason.
In other words… as a starter Pokémon, Gible really wasn’t much stronger than most other baby Pokémon.
