"Congratulations to the host for obtaining a physique super upgrade!"
"Congratulations to the host for advancing abilities—Memory Enhancement has upgraded to Memory Super Enhancement!"
Two consecutive system notifications rang in Su Yu's mind, making him pause for a moment.
He hadn't expected that his memory enhancement ability could actually be upgraded. But what exactly did this upgrade bring?
The only difference was the addition of one word—was the system being lazy, or was there more to it?
Su Yu quickly checked the descriptions of his abilities:
"Memory Super Enhancement: Now includes a photographic memory effect."
"Physique Super Upgrade: Can reach the peak of human potential. Please train accordingly."
"The peak of human potential?" Su Yu pondered.
This was a vague concept, but it was clear that it didn't mean some kind of supernatural level found in fantasy novels.
If this were another world, this upgrade might have been a gateway to some supreme cultivation realm.
But unfortunately—or perhaps fortunately—this was just an ordinary world.
That thought made Su Yu sigh in relief. If concepts like innate cultivation or void-breaking martial arts suddenly became real, his daily life would be thrown into chaos.
The phrase "please train accordingly" suggested that this ability was merely a support system. How strong he could become still depended on his own efforts.
"Hiratsuka-sensei always said I started training too late. But now, it seems I'm right on time." Su Yu smirked.
Once he mastered all of Hiratsuka-sensei's techniques and then used them to defeat her, her reaction would be priceless.
With that amusing thought, Su Yu turned his attention back to the virtual screen.
The page displaying Miura Yumiko had flipped past, and a new name appeared.
"As expected, it's Iroha Isshiki, huh?"
Su Yu wasn't surprised at all.
At Sōbu High, there were only a few prominent anime heroines. Isshiki Iroha was the only one he hadn't interacted with yet, so it made sense that the system would refresh her next.
This confirmed the system's rule—anime heroines with higher difficulty levels were more likely to appear.
If he hadn't helped Kawasaki Saki before, she might have been the one to show up instead.
Closing the virtual screen, Su Yu glanced toward the soccer field.
Now, it was time to test his second theory.
If he didn't actively approach this newly refreshed anime heroine…
Would she take the initiative to approach him?
After the Afternoon Exams
Su Yu finished drawing the fifth chapter of Yuru Camp.
The single-volume publication would take some time, but he wasn't in a hurry.
He had two main reasons for drawing manga:
Anime AdaptationMoney
A portion of his 50 billion yen had already been invested in the Yukinoshita family's projects. Haruno Yukinoshita had specifically chosen short-term projects that would generate quick returns.
With the Yukinoshita family's influence, the investment was almost risk-free, and Su Yu's money would soon multiply.
One of their new projects involved both construction and property ownership—allowing them to hold a share in the completed buildings.
Additionally, they were open to outside investments.
While 30% of the shares couldn't be sold, the remaining 70% was available for purchase.
The funds would be allocated across various sectors.
Haruno wanted Su Yu to invest enough to acquire over 50% of the shares. The price was steep, but the potential returns were even higher.
Su Yu trusted Haruno. He wasn't concerned with how the money was used—only with the final results.
After School
Since he had plans to watch a movie, Su Yu didn't head to the tennis courts.
Yukinoshita Yukino went to Shining Animation, and Kawasaki Saki went to Mirai Manga Publishing.
That left Su Yu with three companions:
Yuigahama YuiMiura YumikoEbina Hina
Of the three girls, two were romantically involved with him, while the remaining one also had a good impression of him.
Logically, this situation should have been awkward.
But Ebina Hina was a smart girl.
And Su Yu knew how to handle things.
So, there was no problem at all.
The three girls took Su Yu to their favorite dessert shop.
Though he wasn't a big fan of sweets, the taste was decent.
As they passed through a shopping street, Su Yu noticed several interesting stores:
A shop specializing in traditional Japanese sweets.An old-fashioned convenience store filled with all sorts of rare and quirky items—just like the one in Yuru Camp.A small bookstore that carried not only regular manga but also some rather… questionable magazines.
These stores stood in stark contrast to the modern shopping center nearby.
The street itself had very few pedestrians. Even those who passed by showed little interest in the shops.
"To save the declining shopping street, the heroine decides to debut as an idol. What do you think of this story?" Su Yu asked.
"Su Yu-kun, does that even count as a story?" Yuigahama blinked in confusion.
"Sounds interesting." Miura Yumiko gave her opinion.
"A shopping street idol project, huh?" Ebina Hina mused.
"As long as the heroine is a cute high school girl, anything can be interesting," Su Yu murmured.
"Are you planning to make this into an anime?" Ebina Hina asked curiously.
Su Yu glanced at her and nodded.
It might not be the best concept, but it had a certain charm.
A group of adorable girls working hard toward a shared goal—that was the essence of a good anime.
Dozens of similar anime played vividly in his mind, each scene crystal clear.
"Wait… is this the effect of Memory Super Enhancement?"
Su Yu suddenly realized.
Memory Enhancement allowed him to recall general information.
But Memory Super Enhancement preserved even the tiniest details.
The gap between these two levels was enormous.
Su Yu decided to spend the night organizing his thoughts and pitching the idea to Tamura Wakana.
She was well-versed in these kinds of anime and knew how to bring out the girls' cuteness.
If they pursued this as a long-term project, they could release one anime every season or every other season—continuing for at least a decade.
At the Movie Theater
Seated between Miura Yumiko and Yuigahama Yui, with Ebina Hina on the other side, Su Yu quietly observed his surroundings.
As the movie started, he gently held the hands of the two girls beside him.
Yuigahama naturally clasped his hand without hesitation.
Miura Yumiko, however, blushed and stole a glance at Yuigahama—worried she might notice.
From the very first scene, Su Yu sensed something was… off about this movie.
Then came the moment when the male protagonist began dating two girls at the same time.
Su Yu could immediately feel the sharp gazes of the three girls beside him.
Then came the dramatic turning point.
The first heroine was a yandere.
The second heroine protected the protagonist and engaged in a battle of wits against the first heroine.
But during their rivalry… they started to understand and appreciate each other.
The second heroine redeemed the yandere.
At that point, Su Yu thought the movie was wrapping up.
But then—
The plot took a shocking twist.
The first heroine fell in love with the second heroine.
"…???"
Su Yu was speechless.
