I Refuse to Become Scumbag in Tokyo Chapter 144: New Toy

Chapter 144: New Toy

Shishio woke up quite late this morning and saw a notification from the system that made him feel conflicted.


"..."
Shishio felt conflicted, but he had to admit that his reward was amazing. Still, he felt conflicted when his lips were kissed twice when he was sleeping. He was able to stop Nana from kissing his lips before, but this time, when he was sleeping, Saki and Roberta kissed him secretly, which made him lost for words somehow, but what could he do?
If Shishio was a girl, then he would be crying since he was molested, but since he was a boy, he could only enjoy it since he didn't lose anything.
Shishio didn't wake up first and decided to accept his rewards. He received four rewards: "Machinery Mastery," "Hypnotic Mastery," "Swimming Mastery," and "Private Military Company."
The first thing that he accepted was the "Private Military Company," and the moment he accepted, he was stunned since it seemed the "Private Military Company" that he received was more amazing than he had thought. The business of this "Private Military Company" revolved around security personnel, mercenaries, private soldiers, monitoring equipment, response units, secure prisoner transportation, private prison, etc. It also had many names and became a legend in various wars or conflicts in various places in this world.
When Shishio got this reward, he felt relief somehow. After all, this way, he knew that he would be protected, and many things could be easily done when someone tried to cause him trouble. Now, he had more choices, Tokyo Bay, Aokigahara, or just shot them directly, since he didn't have to worry about many things now with his "Private Military Company."
After reading the information for a while, Shishio then accepted the "Swimming Mastery." In truth, he couldn't swim, but after he accepted this reward, he could swim instantly, but more than that, it gave him a technique that made him capable of breathing in the water, which made him quite dumbfounded.
Shishio had to admit that "Swimming Mastery" ability was quite cheating, making him shake his head. Then, after all of that, he accepted the "Hypnotic Mastery," and somehow, he felt this ability was more cheating than the "Swimming Mastery."
If "Swimming Mastery" made him able to breathe underwater, then the "Hypnotic Mastery" made him able to control people. Still, Shishio had to admit that this "Hypnotic Mastery" was a very dangerous ability. After all, if an evil guy held it, no one really knew what they would do, worse case, that person might mimic the scene where it happened on hentai manga where the housewives were hypnosis, and the husband of that housewife could only smile when he saw the protagonist who used hypnosis fucked his wife.
Shishio let out a sigh, and somehow he understood that if his will wasn't strong, and if he wasn't someone with a rational mind, then he might walk into the path where he would enter hell when he died.
Shishio then shook his head and thought that it was better to not use the "Hypnotic Mastery" unless it was necessary, as for to use it on a girl? He felt disdain, he had his pride as a man, and of course, to get a girl, he wouldn't use something like hypnosis.
Shishio then checked his last reward, which was "Machinery Mastery," but even if he hadn't accepted it, he could guess more or less what kind of reward this ability was. The moment he accepted this reward, he understood the operation of any mechanical device and effortlessly created a schematic in his mind. He was also able to make complex devices or weapons out of mere scrap and "garbage."
Shishio was lying on the sofa, but then he smelled food which made him wake up. He saw both Roberta and Saki had woken up, and both of them also looked at him. "Saki, Roberta, good morning."
"Um, good morning..." Saki said, blushing while lowering her head shyly.
"Good morning, Shishio-sama." Roberta bowed her head respectfully, and there was no change on her face, but in truth, her heart was beating very fast, afraid that Shishio might know what she had done last night.
Saki and Roberta couldn't help but remember what they had done. Fortunately, Shishio didn't wake up and didn't know since they weren't sure what to do if he knew.
"Did you cook something?" Shishio asked.
"Um, I have cooked breakfast. Wait a moment. It will be almost ready soon," Saki said and continued to cook in the kitchen. In truth, she was a bit overwhelmed before, but when she saw many ingredients on the fridge, she thought to show her cooking ability to him.
Shishio walked nearby and stared at Saki's back. Somehow, he felt that it was nice to see a girl who cooked for himself.
Saki somehow noticed Shishio's gaze and blushed, feeling embarrassed, and asked, "Wh - Why are you looking at me?" She was shy and felt nervous, wondering whether he noticed that she had kissed him last night.
"Nothing, I feel like it would be great to see a girl cook for myself," Shishio said with a light smile.
"Really?" Saki asked.
"Um." Shishio nodded and said, "Usually, I'm the one who is cooking, so it feels novel to have someone to cook for me."
Saki looked at Shishio then said, "If you don't mind, I can cook for you, though."
Shishio shook his head and said, "You might be troubled if you do that, and don't you need to take care of your younger siblings."
"No, it's alright, I can do it," Saki said.
Looking at the eagerness on Saki's face, Shishio could only nod and said, "Still, you don't need to do it every day since your job isn't to cook, right?"
Saki nodded, but then she asked with some worry, "Are you going to visit Tokugawa?" She knew that Shishio had an ambition, an ambition that she couldn't understand, but she knew that she couldn't stop him.
"No, I don't plan to visit him. What I said to him yesterday were just some pleasantries. After all, he's the descendant Tokugawa Ieyasu of Tokugawa Shogunate, even if he doesn't have the same right that he has in the past, he still has a lot of power today," Shishio simply said, after all, it was better to have a friend, rather than an enemy, right?
"!!!"
Saki was stunned and almost dropped the ladle on her hands. "Th - The descendant of Tokugawa Ieyasu? The one in the history book? The first Shogun of the Tokugawa Shogunate?"
"Um." Shishio nodded and said, "He should be the 13th clan head of the Tokugawa clan."
"...." Saki.
"You don't need to worry too much. All I can see is that he'd just love to see someone fight," Shishio said.
"Shishio, I wonder why all the rich guys love to see people fight..." Saki didn't really understand why the rich people loved to watch someone fight each other.
"Saki, that's where you're wrong. Even normal people also love to watch fights." Shishio looked at Saki and said, "If normal people don't like to watch a fight, then a fighting sport like boxing, wrestling, MMA, etc. won't be popular, and those athletes won't get money, but unlike normal people where they can only enjoy a public match from the television on the stadium, for the rich guy, they can spend a lot of money, even creating an underground fighting arena, and if you ask why, then it is because they're rich."
Shishio shook his head and said, "It's because they're rich that they can do anything."
Saki felt very conflicted at this moment and asked, "What about the police?"
"Well, you should also know deep down that as long as there's money, you can do a lot of things, even a lot of people sell themselves for money, right?" Shishio said.
"....." Saki couldn't say a word, after all, she also knew that there were a lot of high school girls who sold themselves for money, on the other hand, she was very lucky to meet Shishio, after all, her job was pretty simple, even though she didn't really like to see Shishio fight someone. It was also the reason she was wondering how he felt toward her, wondering whether the reason why he helped her was that...
'Does he like me?' Saki blushed when she thought about that possibility.
"Hmm, Saki, do I smell burnt?" Shishio suddenly asked.
"What?" Saki then realized that the fish that she had grilled was scorched black. "NO!!!!!!"
"..." Shishio looked at Saki and shook his head, thinking that this girl might not be much different from Roberta somehow.
On the other hand, Roberta only tilted her head, seemingly couldn't understand why she felt that someone was thinking something rude about her.
---
After they had eaten, Shishio then took his katana and walked to his courtyard.
"What are you doing?" Saki asked.
"I'm going to check my katana," Shishio said simply.
"Huh? That katana isn't a decoration?" Saki asked since she thought that the katana on Shishio's hand was just for decoration.
"....." Shishio.
"Don't be too close if you want to watch," Shishio said with a serious expression.
Saki and Roberta then, without hesitation, followed Shishio since they were curious.
---
Standing on the open courtyard, right on the highest floor of his building, Shishio could feel the air was a bit thin, but it was fresher. After all, this place wasn't as cramped as the ground. Holding his katana with his left hand, he closed his eyes and started to breathe.
Saki didn't think much since, in her mind, Shishio was a powerful martial artist, but Roberta, who was knowledgeable about martial arts, felt quite curious about Shishio's way of breathing since it was so loud.
Shishio then opened his eyes and pulled the katana from its scabbard. He could see the reflection of his face right on the silver blade of his katana. He could see how sharp it was and the approximate price of this katana.
'That woman's sure rich.'
Shishio didn't expect that Togo would give him such an expensive katana, but since she had given it to him, he wouldn't return it back and would keep it. Upon checking, he put the katana on the scabbard again. He then held the handle with his right hand tightly, showing how powerful the muscle of his arm was, but then in that very moment, the sound of breaking air was heard for a moment.
*Swoosh!*
Shishio then took a deep breath after that one slash, and he had to admit the katana was very good since it was very smooth. He wanted to test it again. After all, he hadn't tried his "Thunder Breathing" with katana before since he didn't have katana, but this time, it was different. He could test it anytime he wanted.
When that one slash happened, Saki was confused, but it was only a moment when she didn't blink her eyes, she saw something gleam for a moment, which made her confused, but when she thought about it calmly, she was dumbfounded.
'Is that a blade?'
Saki was wondering how fast his slash was since she could only see a gleam before it disappeared. She looked at Shishio and wondered whether there was someone who could be more powerful than him. After all, in her mind, he had always been the strongest.
As for Roberta, under her glasses, her eyes were wide open since she knew that Shishio was more powerful than she had thought, and somehow there was an obsession in her eyes since the more powerful he was, the more she...
'Cough! Cough!'
Roberta coughed inwardly since she knew the difference in their status, she was his maid, and he was her master, but...
'It should be alright if I just imagine it on my mind, right?'
Shishio didn't know what the two women were thinking, and at that moment, he was just a little kid who had just gotten his new toy, so he played until he felt bored.
