[Golden Bell: A rather cute bell. ——It has a crisp sound.]
In the materials section was a Golden Bell attached to a black lace choker. The cute ornamentation seemed to be a perfect match for Saotome Yukina.
Just imagining the choker tied around the little rabbit's slender, snow-white neck, chiming crisply with every little hop she took...
Su Yuzu immediately felt... this game really knew what it was doing.
However, what truly made Su Yuzu's heart pound, what made her hands tremble slightly... were the two hard, black-and-gilt cards that had fallen into her hands.
"Basic Combat Records."
Two of them.
Her idea was entirely feasible.
Not only could she get a double return by spending money to feed Saotome Yukina, but even using "Basic Combat Records" to develop Saotome Yukina yielded a double return as well.
The girl before her, her cute and delicate face and her snow-white neck dyed crimson from shyness and trembling, was an alluring sight.
In Su Yuzu's eyes, she had completely taken on the shape of "Basic Combat Records."
——Fill her up with "Combat Records"!
Turn the Perpetual Motion Maiden into a Production Maiden!
This was it! The path to riches and a new life was right here!
Unfortunately... in the "Operator Development" interface, the chibi Saotome Yukina, who had returned to her seat, already had a cute, dizzy expression.
The chibi Saotome Yukina was slumped in her chair, looking pitifully out at her from beyond the screen.
(×﹏×)
"----Girl Resting----"
"15:23:34" Judging by the white dialogue box next to the girl.
The "Development" cooldown should reset at midnight, and... if I'm not mistaken, I can probably only feed her one at a time.
Her plan to feed the girl until she overflowed had fallen through.
Then again... Su Yuzu looked at the alluring flush on Saotome Yukina's face and the mist forming in her already watery, bright blue eyes.
If this continued without end...
Su Yuzu was genuinely worried that a pink heart might suddenly appear in the girl's eyes.
In this world, there existed something called a "Blessing."
After fulfilling certain special conditions, be they Espers, warriors, or even ordinary people, they would receive a goddess's "Blessing."
Perhaps they would gain a new talent.
Or perhaps their abilities and constitution would be enhanced.
Accompanying the arrival of a "Blessing"... was a pleasant sensation so exquisite it was said one could never forget the taste.
There was a rumor... that the strongest female warrior from the Imperial Capital University, hailed as 'The Empire's First Archer,' Kujou Iruka...
It was because she became intoxicated with the pleasure of receiving "Blessings" that she began to hunt "Catastrophe Beasts" with a maddened frenzy.
In the end, she was corrupted and degenerated into an "Aberrant."
Clearly—
The effect of using a "Basic Combat Record" on Saotome Yukina was that Saotome Yukina would receive a small "Blessing."
Su Yuzu opened the "Operator Index."
Saotome Yukina's experience bar had already grown from 3% to 25%.
If she did this once a day, it would only take four days. Saotome Yukina could be promoted to a Level 3 Hydrokinetic, gaining the preliminary ability to heal minor injuries.
Then... what about me?
Could I finally break the curse of being a Level 0 Psychokinesis user and officially become an Esper?
Although the power of a Level 1 Psychokinesis was limited to lifting a girl's skirt with psychokinesis, or perhaps a single chopstick or a spoon.
But... for Su Yuzu, who had been shackled at Level 0 Psychokinesis for so long...
It was a nearly infinite temptation.
What's more, she had the "Operator Development Module" and she had Saotome Yukina.
As long as she had Saotome Yukina, as long as she maintained Saotome Yukina's favorability towards her...
It was equivalent to having a Production Maiden who could stably yield one "Basic Combat Record" every day.
Even Level 80 might not be so far-fetched.
An eroge heroine?
Aside from smelling nice, being soft to hug, obedient, and very heartwarming, what else was so great about Saotome Yukina?
My goal is the sea of stars.
Biting her lip, her little face slightly raised, her eyes misty with an adorable fog, an indescribable feeling spread through her heart.
Having received a "Blessing" for the first time, Saotome Yukina had no idea what had just happened.
But... looking at the senpai before her, whose brows were furrowed in a worried expression, Saotome Yukina just felt that she must look very pathetic right now.
"I've embarrassed myself in front of senpai."
For some reason... that seemed to be even more unacceptable to Saotome Yukina than the embarrassment itself.
She really wanted to call out to her senpai with a pitiable cry.
But Saotome Yukina clenched her little fists tightly.
However, her honest, misty, watery-blue eyes and her stubborn expression only served to highlight her delicacy, making one want to cherish and protect her.
Su Yuzu reached out, gently covering Saotome Yukina's clenched fist.
"Senpai's hand..."
"It's so warm."
That unique, clean, and sweet fragrance of citrus fruit seemed to drift over as well.
The girl's slender fingertips gently brushed across the back of her hand.
"Was that a 'Blessing'?" came a clear, cold, and pleasant voice.
In front of Su Yuzu, Saotome Yukina seemed to have completely let down her guard. The little rabbit nodded repeatedly, an expression of sudden realization on her face.
So... this is a "Blessing"?
Receiving a "Blessing" is actually such a pleasant experience.
But... senpai is so gentle.
Completely different from the rumors.
[Ding——] The now-familiar synthetic female voice rang in Su Yuzu's ear.
[Consolation: Saotome Yukina favorability +1]
[Favorability Increase Reward Acquired: Maid's black lace headband.]
Should I say, as expected of the heroine with the highest initial favorability and who is easiest to capture?
Saotome Yukina's favorability towards Su Yuzu was rising incredibly fast.
Looking at the lace headband that appeared in the materials section...
Su Yuzu suddenly had a bold conjecture.
From the Cat Paw Band-Aids at the beginning, to the Golden Bell and now the lace headband, they were actually all parts of a single maid outfit.
And... the owner of these accessories was, in all likelihood, Saotome Yukina, who was right in front of her.
Su Yuzu looked at the little rabbit before her.
Her mischievous smile deepened.
"It would suit her quite well."
"If it was a 'Blessing'...," Su Yuzu slowly withdrew her hand.
"Then that's a very lucky thing."
"Th-Then it's a luck I only obtained after meeting you, senpai." Sitting primly across from Su Yuzu, Saotome Yukina clutched her crepe, too shy to look up.
"Oh?" Su Yuzu's smile grew increasingly meaningful.
"If that's really the case..."
"Perhaps, Saotome-san..."
"You'll be encountering 'Blessings' quite often from now on."
