Chapter 31 - Settling Scores Part 1

*Kenichi's POV*

*Ding*

While I was immersed in my inner thoughts, I suddenly heard the characteristic system notification sound. Following the usual pattern, it's safe to assume that I just received a reward.

At this point, this no longer surprised me; I already know from my own experience that the main characters are basically gold mines for achievements.

Kenichi: (Ranko aside, Yukana is a main heroine, so in the same way I spent the first day when I stopped Rito from having that perverted accident with Sairenji, it's obvious that getting involved with her can give me something quite useful).

Taking advantage of Ranko and Yukana's animated conversation, I briefly checked the system notification.

=========================

*You managed to make the main heroine, Yame Yukana, aroused for the first time*

You received: Sex Maniac

===

Name: Sex Maniac (Lvl1)

Rank: R

Type: Job

Origin: Isekai Meikyuu de Harem o

Description: It is a rare job that normally has two conditions to be obtained, which are: being of the human race and having sex with two or more women of different races. The level of this skill will increase depending on the amount of sexual acts performed by the host with partners of the opposite sex. The increase is greater if it is with women of different races, and the capabilities of the effects and skills will increase along with the level.

Effects: Increase Stamina - Increase Intelligence - Increase MP

Skills: Enhanced Vigor (Passive) - Abstinence Attack

=========================

*You managed to get Honjou Ranko aroused by a member of the opposite sex*

You received: Lucky Lecher

===

Name: Lucky Lecher

Rank: C

Origin: Ore dake Haireru Kakushi Dungeon

Description: Slightly increases the host's chances of finding himself in perverted situations and also grants an increase of +100 points in the luck parameter.

Important: does not activate during combat situations or serious moments.

=========================

Kenichi: "..."

I couldn't help but be a little surprised; while both rewards weren't exactly powerful or incredible, the fact that I received two surprised me a little.

Lucky Lecher, to sum it up, is an ability similar to Rito's perverted luck and, at the same time, you could say it's an inferior version. The only major use I see for this skill is that it increases my luck parameter; it's one of the only parameters I can't increase with training. It's also useful that it doesn't work during fights.

But the other reward surprised me in a different way. Although the name was somewhat questionable, this is the first time I received a "Job" as a reward.

"Jobs" or "Classes" are a system generally used in RPGs; they define a character's skills and specializations. Through jobs, a player can choose a specific role within the story and modify his or her game skills.

In general, jobs usually include:

- Specialization

- Skills and Statistics

- Progression

- Unlocking skills

These are the usual characteristics of jobs. In the case of the anime from which this job comes from, called "Isekai Meikyuu", it works the same way.

"Isekai Meikyu" is a story that features a Light Novel, Manga and anime. The story is about Kaga Michio, a Japanese man who is transported to a fantasy world that has a power system just like RPGs. In itself, you could say it's a pretty cliché story; the only thing that sets it apart from other Isekai stories is that it has sexual content.

In the story, jobs are designations that people in the "Other World" can choose based on their interests and abilities. Normally, a person can only have one job at a time, and when choosing one, it is usually not possible to change it without great effort. Therefore, each job confers specific skills. Upon fulfilling the requirement to change jobs, his level is reset to level 1. Michio Kaga has the unique ability to change jobs freely, but, like everyone else, his levels and experience do not transfer from one job to another.

Example: (Villager Nvl5 → Warrior Nvl1) ▬ (Warrior Nvl30 → Knight Nvl1) ▬ (Knight Nvl50 → Holy Knight Nvl1).

In the case of the "Sexual Maniac" Job, you could say it's a rare job that doesn't feature class switching. It's also not difficult to obtain; the only conditions are being human and having sex with two women of different races. But, even though it's a ridiculous job, there's no denying that the benefits it brings me are incredible. Basically, it allows me to earn points for some of my parameters just by having sex.

But what I like most about this job is the ability "Abstinence Attack". It is an offensive skill that uses my sexual frustration as a base to launch a powerful attack, but what interests me the most is that, after launching the attack, my sexual frustration is relieved.

Kenichi: (This is the ideal skill so that incidents like the ones from earlier don't happen again. This way, I'll be able to alleviate the Hanma lineage's strong desire to procreate. The only problem is that, being at Nvl1, the effect may not be very great. I'll have to experiment).

While I was thinking, at no point did I stop chatting with Yukana and Ranko. This is one of the benefits of having 155 points in the intelligence parameter; now my mental processing ability is quite high, so performing acts like talking and thinking about completely different things is relatively easy.

Yukana: "Nee~ Nee~ Ken-kun, let's go to karaoke together again this afternoon."

Kenichi: "Hmm? Again, but we all went together the other day."

Yukana: "No... I mean this time we should go just the two of us. Remember that last time you paid for everything; this time let me be the one to invite. Besides, it's going to be a chance for me to apologize for not stopping Ranko earlier."

Ranko: "Hee~ You really need to make things so complicated. If Ken-kun wants an apology, then I can just do this~".

After saying that, Ranko entwined her left arm around my right arm and pressed her breasts against it.

Yukana: "Ranko, I'm not going to lag behind this time!".

Imitating Ranko's actions, Yukana also entwined her right arm with my left arm and, just like Ranko, pressed her breasts against my arm while blushing.

Ranko: "But look how lucky you are, Ken-kun~ You're caught between two beautiful, sexy, big-breasted girls. Do you think that with this you can forgive me for earlier?".

Kenichi: (She's cursed! She already knows I'm doing my best to restrain myself; that's why she's starting to tease me.)

I have to admit that I'm pretty exasperated with these two girls. Although I don't know the reason why they both got turned on earlier, I can easily assume that, for the rewards, I was the cause. But, despite that, they both insist on continuing to provoke me. Even with my enhanced senses and understanding about feelings thanks to Danger Sense, I still can't quite understand women's feelings.

Kenichi: (But this time I'm not going to continue to behave passively. If you think that this slight physical contact is enough to make me feel satisfied, you are very wrong).

Ranko: "Hyaaa♥!".

Yukana: "Kyaaa♥!".

Ranko and Yukana could only let out moans as I slid my hands under their skirts while firmly holding their butts.

Yukana: "W-Wait.... K-Ken-kun... Haa♥."

Ranko: "Hey, what are you? Hyaaa♥."

I completely ignored her words and concentrated solely on firmly caressing their soft butts. Maybe it's because of the "Sex Maniac" job, but even though it's my first time touching a woman, for some reason I instinctively knew where to touch them to give them pleasure.

Yukana: "Haa♥ Kuh♥ Ken-kun~♥ N-No.... P-Please♥."

Ranko: "D-Don't get carried away♥ Kyaaa~♥".

Kenichi: (Even though they both look like experienced women and usually tease guys for being virgins, I can easily tell from their reactions that they are not used to being touched by a man).

Besides, I was surprised that they were both so sensitive; it was only enough to touch them a little to make their panties wet again. Of course, I didn't go beyond that; I didn't intend to do anything kinky to begin with, I just wanted to tease them a bit and also warn them what might happen to them if they keep tempting me.

Kenichi: "Well~ I guess that's it for now~".

I said that as I pulled my hands away from Yukana and Ranko's butts. Both of them were clinging to my arms as they gasped unevenly.

Yukana: "Haa... Haa... Haa... Haa..."

Ranko: "Haa... Haa... Haa... Guh..."

By the way, for those of you who are wondering, how is it possible that despite performing such a shameless act in the middle of the street, no one saw us? Then the answer is simple. I'm not a leading man like Hyodou Issei; I'd rather die than have some guy on the rise see the naked body of the girl I like, so I made sure we walked through an uncrowded area. Even if someone had shown up, I would have immediately sent him to sleep with my Haoshoku Haki.

Yukana: "Ken-kun... Haa... Haa... W-What was that?".

Kenichi: "It's a reminder"

Yukana: "Reminder?"

Kenichi: "Maybe it's because we're so close, but lately you seem to be forgetting that I'm a man. Even if I don't look at you with perverted eyes all the time, that doesn't mean I'm going to stand still all the time while you provoke me like that. So, for next time, I recommend you to be more careful."

After hearing my warning, Yukana averted her gaze in embarrassment and remained silent while still clinging to my arm.

Ranko: "H-Hee~ Who would have thought Ken-kun was such a pervert, are you sure you don't want both of us to stray to a Love Hotel?".

Kenichi: "I'm not as perverted as Ranko-senpai~ You just made some pretty cute moans; I'd like to keep listening to them."

Ranko: "E-Eh?"

It seems that even she is not immune to this kind of provocation. From what I saw of the anime, she is used to teasing men, especially those who are easily embarrassed, such as Rito. However, it seems that her defenses are low with those who are proactive in teasing her.

Kenichi: "Just kidding, unfortunately I'm not a casual man, so the only way I would accept that invitation would be if we are in a relationship. You could say this was my revenge for earlier."

Ranko: "Damn!"

???: "Hooo~ But if it isn't Ranko-chan~ It's been quite a while, looks like you've been having quite a bit of fun in my absence♪"

Before Ranko finished speaking, she was suddenly interrupted by a man's voice that sounded quite unpleasant and, at the same time, mocking.

Turning my head, I could see in front of us a tall boy with tousled blond hair. His skin was tanned (just like Ranko), he had a stocky, muscular build, his ears had several conspicuous piercings, and his clothes were disheveled. In short, he was basically the stereotypical playboy delinquent that tends to appear quite often in hentai stories of the NTR genre.

Also, next to him were two girls, both hugging his arms intimately while blushing and smiling teasingly at the sight of Ranko.

Kenichi: (I'd like to give some negative comment about this guy, but whichever way you look at it, in the eyes of a third party I'm just like him. Despite what I just did to them, these two are still clinging to my arms. The very idea of being compared to this guy makes me feel uncomfortable).

???: "What's up, Ranko-chan~? It's been quite a while since we've seen each other, don't you have any affectionate words to say to your boyfriend~?"

The playboy pulled out of an NTR, said that to Ranko while looking at her in a contemptuous manner. Despite standing in front of us, at no time did he look at me; he was just staring at Ranko and Yukana, or more specifically, he was looking at their bodies without any kind of shame while smiling and licking his lower lip.

From what I know of NTR hentai anime, I understand that these guys, despite their messy and unkempt appearances, are better looking than most guys. But this guy doesn't even look like a high school student; just by his face alone I'd say he looks older than thirty. Plus, he looks ridiculous with the uniform on; it's like watching a senior citizen cosplaying.

Yukana: "Huh?! Ranko's boyfriend?!"

Ranko: "..."

Despite Yukana's shout of surprise, Ranko kept quiet, with a serious expression as she frowned and looked at him with a disgusted expression.

???: "Why do you have such an angry expression? We may have had our differences, but we certainly had quite a few passionate moments~ You know, despite what happened, I've never held a grudge against you. In fact, I've waited long enough to meet you to pick up where we left off~"

Ranko: "Stop talking in your sleep! You and I are nothing and we have nothing to talk about either! Just meeting you makes me nauseous! If you understood that, then get the fuck out of the way, you little shit! Do you want me to kick you in the balls again?!!"

I could tell that, upon hearing Ranko's words, that guy flinched slightly and his smirk faded a bit. I could also notice some irritation in his expression.

Kenichi: (You don't need to be a genius to deduce what happened between them).

???: "Hey, Ranko~ Are you sure you want to talk to me in that tone~ I remind you that your future and your family's future depends on how well you please me~"

Ranko: "Son of a bitch!!"

I couldn't help but stare in exasperation at the little drama that was unfolding in front of me. This was supposed to be just another day like any other, but in just a matter of minutes I've already been dragged into several uncomfortable situations.

Kenichi: (Looks like I'm going to have to get used to the fact that, no matter what genre it is, anime is always going to be made up of chaotic situations. Personally, I'd hate to get involved in this, but it seems I have no choice; this guy has been shrouded in a dark aura for a while now).

Ever since I awakened my Youkai lineage, I have been able to see a kind of aura that seeps from the body of all living people. Although the size and intensity of these auras vary from person to person, they all have a type of characteristic color that largely symbolizes their emotions. I do not know if this ability to see auras is something that all Youkai can do or if it is an ability of the Inu no Daiyoukai.

So far, I have been able to identify seven different types of colors, which are:

-Red (It is associated with energy, power, passion, anger and violence).

-Pink (It is associated with love, lust, and obsession)

-Blue (It is associated with sadness, calmness, intelligence, and wisdom)

-Green (It is associated with nature, personal growth, health and life force)

-Yellow (It is associated with joy, optimism, energy and intellect)

-White (It is related to purity, peace, spirituality and innocence)

-Black (It is related to danger, evil, darkness and loss).

Generally, most people's aura color varies between blue, green and yellow; cases of people with black and white auras are incredibly rare. So far, the only people I have seen with pitch black auras are Stray Devils.

That is why I am somewhat surprised that the guy in front of me presents both red and black aura; it is a perfect synchrony between both colors.

In short, this guy is dangerous.

I don't mean in the sense that he's powerful or has some hidden power; after all, I can easily say that he's just an ordinary human. At best, he's in better shape than most.

What I mean by dangerous is that he is very prone to committing serious crimes or misdemeanors. From the intensity of the colors of his auras and the amount he's releasing, I'd say he's already killed people in the past, either directly or indirectly.

Kenichi: (Also, the threat he just made to Ranko is a clear sign that he must have some family member with influence; in other words, this guy isn't just a stereotype, he's literally the bastard that usually appears in hentai NTR anime).

Looks like staying out of it this time is not an option.

*Ranko's POV*

Ranko: "Son of a bitch!!"

As soon as I heard that nasty voice, I couldn't help but tremble with anger. Not only did I fail to make a fool out of Kenichi's pervert, I also had to go through the humiliation of being touched by him, and worst of all, I enjoyed it.

And now, to make things even worse, I find myself with this scumbag scumbag who hasn't stopped bothering me since I entered school. Just seeing that shit-eating grin gets on my nerves.

The name of this fucker being hugged by those two bitches is Masaru Oga; he's in the same class as me and is a famous playboy at school. Although just uttering his name disgusts me, I can't deny that we were boyfriend and girlfriend quite some time ago.

It happened during my freshman year of high school. I remember feeling very insecure about my own feelings at the time; despite being in my teens, I hadn't shown any kind of interest in men and that was making me nervous. I didn't even show any interest in spending time with other girls; the only thing that made me feel content was the time I spent together with Yukana.

But, to my misfortune, Yukana was a year younger than me, so it was still a whole year before we could spend time together. Not having any friends, it didn't take long for me to be left alone; the guys would look at me in fright and the girls would look at me with disdain. That was part of my daily routine.

Before I knew it, someone spread the rumor that I was an easy girl who would sleep with anyone for a few yen. That rumor made my days even more complicated; now I had to endure the scrutinizing stares and constant hints from guys to have sex with them.

All of this caused me to unconsciously awaken a disdain for men.

It was during that time that I interacted with this son of a bitch. Like most men, he approached me attracted to the rumors. The only thing that set him apart from the rest was his position and influence. From what I understand, his father is a councilman who has repeatedly run for mayor of the city. That, along with his delinquent looks and amazing physical abilities, quickly made him one of the most popular guys in school.

This idiot was incredibly persistent. Despite my constant rejections, he approached me every day demanding that I be his girlfriend. It seemed that by constantly rejecting him, I gained his interest. Until one day I decided to accept his proposal and we started dating. Obviously, I was not romantically interested in him; you could say I was using him to experiment.

I wanted to see if I really had no interest in men.

The result...

It was just as I expected. That experience only served to make me loathe men even more. Oga only kept up his nice guy facade for the first few days. When I accepted, he immediately showed his true colors. He was never interested in starting a romantic relationship with me; he only wanted me to satisfy his sexual needs and grotesque personal tastes.

Once, he even tried to drug me by putting a strange powder in my drink. Although I had already heard several shady rumors about him, it seems that the reality was worse than I imagined. Luckily, I was always cautious, so I never let him do anything to me.

Ranko: (That's why it's kind of insulting for me to say that we went through passionate moments; at no time did we do any of the things that boyfriends would do.)

This guy was more interested in corrupting and humiliating women, and since he couldn't do that with me, he got frustrated. The last straw for me was when he tried to rape me. Fortunately, he underestimated me; he thought I was like all the other women he had slept with. The moment he let his guard down, I kicked him with all my might in the crotch and then walked away, leaving him sobbing from the pain on the floor.

I felt like a complete idiot. Having so many guys I could have experimented with, I went and got involved with the worst one of all. That's this scumbag's way of life.

He seduces innocent girls with his carefree attitude, seeks out their weaknesses with feigned friendship in which he gains their trust. After successfully seducing them, he sleeps with them while recording them, then threatens them with the videos, plays with them for several days until he breaks them psychologically and finally discards them as if they were broken toys or garbage.

One of his greatest pleasures is to corrupt girls with boyfriends. At this point, you could say it's his fetish. The smile he gets when he sees the girls' boyfriends humiliated is really disgusting.

A clear example of this are those two bitches who are hugging them. Although I don't know them personally, they both attend the same class as me. I remember in the past they were innocent, polite girls and had outstanding grades. But now they just look like bitches in heat who do whatever he tells them to do.

Yukana: "What do you mean by that, Ranko? Why does your future and your parents' future depend on you pleasing him?"

Oga: "Hooo~ How come you didn't say anything to your friend Ranko-chan? Come to think of it, this is the first time we've met. You must be Yukana-chan, Ranko-chan's best friend. I've heard a lot about you."

My irritation only increased even more.

Ranko: (You son of a bitch! How dare you so casually utter Yukana's name with that stinking mouth!)

If it were up to me, I would just ignore him and leave without addressing him, but remembering the threat he made to me, I couldn't help but stand still in my spot.

The reason this jerk has the freedom to do whatever he wants with people is because of his family's influence. After I hit him, a few days later my father was suddenly fired from his job for no reason at all.

I don't need to be a genius to understand that Oga had something to do with it. Since then, my father has not been accepted in any other job, nor has my mother. Fortunately, we have relatives who have been helping us.

Since then, I never met Oga again, but I clearly understood the message he sent me by getting my father fired: "If you want your parents to get their jobs back and your life back to normal, then submit in a humiliating way." As much as it pains me to admit it, this scumbag has the freedom to do that sort of thing; no wonder no one does anything to stop him.

Ranko: (That's the reason I didn't tell Yukana anything. Knowing her personality, it's obvious that I would have confronted him head-on. Although it would have made me happy to see her worrying about my well-being, against this kind of trash, that kind of action is counterproductive. In the end, I would have just ended up dragging her into my problem).

Ranko: "What do you care, you little shit, don't go near Yukana, let alone look at her with those disgusting eyes! I don't want you to keep calling me Ranko-chan either! You'll make me want to puke! You and I don't have any relationship anymore, so stop bothering me! You're a really pathetic man!"

I have to admit that this jerk has a very different mentality than the other kids at school. Even though I've done nothing but insult him, he still keeps looking at me with that smirk.

Oga: "But how cruel~ I remember the last time we met, you just kicked me and left without saying a word. How about to make it up to me you and Yukana-chan come hang out with me? I assure you I'm a much better match than that guy over there."

Ranko: "..."

Bitch #1: "Hee~ So, what about us?"

Bitch #2: "That's right~ You promised us that we'd skip class to have a good time at a Love Hotel, but instead here you are trying to seduce other girls. Aren't we enough for you?"

Oga: "Hahaha~ I wasn't lying, but don't you think it's better if the five of us have fun together? I've always wanted to have a quintet; just thinking about it makes me get harder than usual."

Bitch #1: "Kyaaa~! You're such a pervert, Masaru-kun."

Bitch #2: "I'm already starting to get turned on."

It doesn't make a shred of sense to talk to them; those two girls already have completely broken minds, even their eyes lost their sparkle.

Ranko: (Hmm? Come to think of it... What happened to Kenichi? Ever since Oga showed up, this guy hasn't said anything.)

I turned my head curiously, and to my surprise, despite the situation, Kenichi was looking at Oga in a completely expressionless manner. Even though he was teasing him, there was no hatred or contempt in his eyes; it was simply an indifferent look. Even if it is a first year, even he should have heard the rumors about Oga.

 Ranko: (Do you have confidence in your ability to defend yourself? It's true that when I touched him I could tell that his body was full of muscles. It's possible he's even more muscular than Oga, but this isn't the kind of situation that's solved with punches).

Yukana: "Ha! What are you talking about, who would want to sleep with an old creep like you?".

Ranko: "Heh."

I couldn't help but let out a small laugh when I heard Yukana. I know provoking Oga is counterproductive, but it's really satisfying to see him with that irritated expression.

Oga: "I see you have a good sense of humor, Yukana-chan~ But let's see how long that lasts; I'm sure I'll have you moaning like a bitch in heat on my bed in no time~ Although it may not look like it, I love defiant women~".

After saying that, he walked up to Yukana and held out his hand.

Ranko: "This son of-"

As I realized what I was about to do, an unpleasant memory flashed through my mind. The time he tried to rape me also did the same thing; just remembering that experience made my body move on its own, with the intention of hitting him.

*CRACK!*

But just before he did, I instinctively stopped as I heard a dreadful, unpleasant sound. It was similar to the sound made when a branch breaks, but something about this particular sound made my body shudder.

From the expression of Yukana and the other girls, I could tell that they also felt the same shiver as I did.

Oga: "Huh?"

What brought us out of our nervous silence was Oga's confused voice, but when we looked at him, we immediately noticed an irregularity in his body.

His arm, which until just a few seconds ago was outstretched with the intention of touching Yukana's breasts, was now pointing in the opposite direction. That in itself was enough to make us nervous, but what really startled us was that his arm bone was completely visible through his skin.

Ranko: "!"

Yukana: "!"

Bitch #1: "!"

Bitch #2: "!"

We couldn't believe what we were seeing, and by all accounts, the most confused of all was Oga. For some strange reason, he just stared at his broken arm in silence; it was as if his brain couldn't process what had just happened.

Oga: "(-_-)"

Oga: "(o_o)"

Oga: "(O_O)"

But gradually, Oga's confused expression quickly turned to one of surprise, finally turning to one of terror and pain.

Oga: "HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"

Panicking, Oga began to scream as he touched his arm in terror.

Oga: "WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED?!!! MY... MY... MY ARM!!! HYAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"

I didn't know how to react to the situation in front of me; I could only watch in confusion as Oga writhed in pain on the ground.

But while I was confused not knowing what to say, the one person who from the beginning had not said anything suddenly began to speak.

Kenichi: "I see you're getting pretty carried away... Insect."

*Kenichi's POV*

Kenichi: (I've had enough of this guy).

After reminiscing, I remembered that this guy was quite famous at school, though not in a good way. There are a lot of shady rumors about him circulating all over the place, plus it's well known that he's the son of a councilman.

Remembering that, I checked with my ability to see in alternate realities if he belonged to any particular story and, just as I suspected at first, this damn son of a bitch really is the main antagonist of a hentai anime called "Ajisai no Chiru Koro ni".

There's not much to mention about that anime; it's just the typical NTR story of a girl getting extorted or seduced by a scumbag. Ever since I learned the origin story that Otoha-san comes from, those kinds of backstories don't surprise me anymore.

The only thing in this situation that surprised me a bit is that this guy is different from his anime version.

In the story of "Ajisai no Chiru Koro ni", this guy was just an ordinary playboy who seduced the heroine of the story until she willingly had relations with him. But, from what I've heard so far from his conversation with Ranko and from rumors, in this world this guy is clearly a criminal hiding under his father's influence.

From the moment I saw his black and red auras, I knew I had to deal with him somehow, but since he is the son of someone important, I wanted to do it discreetly. Although I would like to act like Yuujirou and beat this guy to pieces, I have to take into account that this world is full of different kinds of supernatural beings.

If I act recklessly, it is possible that someone might discover my identity as the new heir of Tessaiga. But I also couldn't look away and pretend I didn't know anything; I can tell from his aura that this guy is a criminal who has led several people to their deaths. He was even now threatening Ranko with ruining her life if she didn't do what he wanted.

The last straw that broke my patience was when I saw him approach Yukana with the intention of touching her. It was at that moment that I no longer cared about the consequences.

Oga: "UGH! SON OF A BITCH! Y-You did this to me! Don't you know who I am?! Haa... I'm Masaru Oga! My father is someone very influential in this city; with a single order from me, I can make your life and your whole family's life a living hell!"

I couldn't help but sigh in exasperation; I only had to make a simple movement and his arm gave way without any trouble. It was literally like breaking the dry branch of a tree.

Kenichi: (As I thought, at this point ordinary humans are no problem for me; just that small amount of damage was enough for me to start whining. He didn't even hesitate for a second to use his father's name to try to intimidate me).

Oga: "Hey! You're listening to me! You really think you can get away with this after doing this to me! I'm going to sue you for assault! Just by asking my father, I can get your parents fired and fill them with debt!"

I'd had enough of listening to this guy's whining, so I didn't bother suppressing my Hanma blood anymore.

I could feel the air around me change the instant I released my fighting instinct. My hair, which until just a few seconds ago looked normal, began to shake and sway along with the air, and at the same time, the Sainan High School uniform I was wearing began to tighten my body and make protesting noises as it was no longer able to contain my muscles that were beginning to bulge.

Oga: "!"

The moment everyone witnessed my change, I could notice different kinds of emotions mixed with the atmosphere: disbelief, surprise, fear, insecurity.

Especially this guy named Oga; his previous attempt to try to intimidate me was nowhere to be seen anymore. Now he was just like another one of the background characters in Baki's world who stood trembling as they peed themselves with fear.

Kenichi: (I guess I can't blame him; although for me this is just a natural state, for him it must be similar to being watched by a wild creature that can kill him without any effort).

After thinking that, I approached him with slow but firm steps.

Kenichi: "The truth is, I don't give a damn who your father is... Even if he was the prime minister, I still wouldn't give a shit."

Oga: "W-What?!"

Kenichi: "If I'm being completely honest with you, the truth is that I don't care about you one bit. If it were up to me, I wouldn't even relate to a piece of shit like you. I can tell just by looking at you how pathetic you really are. Did you really think you were some kind of king? Did you really think that school was your playground and that everyone in it was a toy you could break at any time?"

As he spoke, I could tell that he was beginning to enjoy this situation. Seeing the fear reflected in his eyes caused me indescribable joy.

Kenichi: (I'm sure this is not due to my Hanma lineage).

After some thought, I quickly checked my system parameters, and it turned out to be just as I expected.

==========

Osore: +100

==========

Kenichi: (So this is Osore, the power that comes from being feared and respected by humans. Who would have thought I'd get 100 points just for scaring a couple of ordinary students?)

I couldn't help but smile as I realized this.

Oga: "W-What are you saying? Y-You just went crazy?! I-I can ruin your life with a simple phone call! W-With my father's influence, I can do whatever I want. I can even frame you for assault!"

I was a little surprised to see his confidence recover a little, although the trembling in his words was the clear sign that he was scared to death. I could even see his legs trembling slightly.

Kenichi: "HAHAHAHA~ What a pathetic guy. Not only are you a piece of trash who can't get a woman unless he uses underhanded means, but you're also a daddy's baby who runs crying for help at the first sign of trouble... You're hilarious."

Before he could answer me, I put my left hand on his neck and, without any effort, lifted him up as if he were just a used rag.

Oga: "Ugh... Khu... Agh... S-Stop... Haa..."

I wasn't exerting any kind of effort and I wasn't applying that much force either, but even he must have realized that I can break his neck as easily as I broke his arm.

Kenichi: "How do you plan to accuse me of assault? There are no security cameras in this place. Are you thinking of framing me without any evidence?"

Oga: "T-That's... Ugh... Agh... Haa..."

Kenichi: "Obviously you can frame me without proof. After all, your father can create all the false evidence he wants as long as he has my personal data, right?"

Oga: "Th-That's right... Ugh... Th-That's why... Agh... Khu... Y-You have to let go..."

Kenichi: "You still don't seem to understand anything... Your life is in my hands. If you plan to frame me for things I haven't done, then I might just break your throat along with your vocal cords. That way, you're never going to speak again."

Oga: "!"

I could hear a sound similar to water falling on the ground. But, to my bad luck, my overdeveloped sense of smell was able to identify the smell of the liquid without any difficulty.

Since I wanted to traumatize him from fear, I had to do my best not to twist my face in disgust at the smell of his urine.

The look of fear on his face was a true work of art. I could tell that this must be the first time in his life that he put on such an expression. As I watched him desperately try to pull my hand away from his neck, I couldn't help but let out a laugh.

Kenichi: "But even if I can silence you by breaking your vocal cords, you can still write, right? Then I should also break all your fingers one by one, until you won't be able to type ever again, and as a precaution, I should also do the same to your feet."

Oga: "!!!"

In your eyes it should be easy to know that I can do that. Although I still don't feel ready to take a human's life, I have no problem causing them harm, and even less so if it's a cursed one who dared to threaten my family.

I know perfectly well that my grandparents are capable of defending themselves without me having to do anything. The same goes for my grandfather Isshin; he has much more power and influence in Japan than a simple councilman, so the chances of this guy being able to do anything to them are extremely low. But I also have some uncles and cousins who lead normal lives, completely removed from conflict or supernatural things.

I can't allow them to get involved in the machinations of these shits.

Kenichi: "You understand now. The same way you said you can easily ruin my life, I can also do the same. No amount of influence or money will save you from me. Besides, I have several other ways to destroy you."

Oga: "Guh!"

Kenichi: "If you have lived in this city since childhood, you must surely have heard the name 'Shuuei Clan'. They are one of the most famous Yakuza clans that control much of the city. Even you must have heard what they do to the sons of bitches who do this kind of thing, right?"

Oga: "T-The Shuuei Clan!"

The moment he uttered the name of the Yakuza clan that is led by Raku's father, he immediately burst into tears while trembling pathetically.

Kenichi: "I happen to have a friend in my class named Ichijou Raku. He's a pretty nice and kind boy... But what do you think? That nice and kind boy is actually the next heir to the Shuuei Clan."

If just hearing the name of the Shuuei Clan was enough to scare him, knowing that I have contact with them only served to intensify his fear even more.

Osore: 100 / +10 / +10 / +10

==========

Kenichi: (I like this feeling. It's a waste to kill him; I need to get all the fear I can produce).

Kenichi: "If they catch you, they may torture you to get any shady information about your family, and if they find it, it's quite possible that even the police will get involved. I've heard that the police commissioner of this city is not very tolerant of criminals."

Bitch #1: "T-The police!"

Bitch #2: "I-It's a joke, right?!"

To my surprise, the ones who reacted to that were the two girls accompanying Oga.

Kenichi: "That's right, do they think it's legal for high school students to skip class to go to a Love Hotel? Although that only warrants a reprimand from the police and a suspension from school, it will definitely go down in their life records, not to mention the rumors that will spread around the school."

==========

Osore: 130 / +10 / +10

==========

Kenichi: (The Osore is quite easy to get. Although the amount of points I receive is small, I'm sure that if I scare them with my Youkai form, I'm going to receive a large amount).

After leaving the two girls shivering as they sobbed in a corner, I looked back at Oga with a predatory smile.

Kenichi: "And not to mention that I also have contacts with the 'Arima Corporation'. If your father is a councilman, he must be familiar with it, right? After all, it's one of the richest and most powerful industrial companies in Japan.... Now the question is, what can a simple councilman do against the influence of one of the richest families in Japan?"

Oga: "N-No... P-Please... Guh... Haaaaaaa..."

Kenichi: "Looks like you're finally starting to get it. I can destroy you in every possible way, physically, psychologically and financially."

==========

Osore: 150 / +50

==========

Oga: "Ugh! Gah! Hiiiiiiiiiihh!"

Oga's face was a complete mess; tears and snot gushed from his eyes and nose without any shame.

Kenichi: "If you understood... Then I want you to disappear from my sight right now... The next time I find out that you got even a little bit close to Yukana or Ranko... I'll look for you... I will find you... And I will destroy, without any hesitation whatsoever, your pathetic existence... Understood?"

==========

Osore: 200 / +50

==========

Oga: "Y-Y-YES!!!"

After hearing his confirmation, I let go of him and he fell on his butt on the ground while sobbing.

Oga: "WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"

Noticing that he was finally free, Oga ran off while screaming. He was running as fast as a herbivore being chased by a predator would run. Although he fell several times while running, it seems that his fear overcame the pain; he didn't even seem to mind his broken arm.

As for what I said about letting him off the hook, that was just a lie. As I mentioned in the past, this guy is a criminal. Even though he went through that experience, his dark aura did not diminish one bit; in fact, it was now more intense than before.

As I was immersed in my thoughts, I could notice that a rather luxurious-looking cell phone was lying on the spot where Oga fell. Without saying a word, I walked over and picked it up to check it later; I might find some information.

Yukana: "Ken-kun... That was great~"

Ranko: "Y-Yes... That was awesome..."

To my surprise, instead of being freaked out by the way I dealt with Oga, both Yukana and Ranko seemed to be just surprised. I won't deny that left me somewhat confused; I'm absolutely sure that they saw my malice firsthand.

Kenichi: "Are you two okay?"

Yukana: "Hmm? What do you mean?"

Kenichi: "What I mean... It's just that I expected your reactions to be similar to those girls... The way I dealt with Oga is not normal at all; I even broke his arm and in the end ended up threatening to destroy his life. Aren't they scared of that?"

Hearing me, they both turned their gazes to look at the two girls who were crouched in a fetal position, while sobbing and mumbling incomprehensible things.

Ranko: "Ha~ I see you really underestimate us, Ken-kun. Did you really think we were going to run away while crying like that pathetic jerk?"

Yukana: "That's right, Ken-kun. Although your method was quite violent, you gave that pretentious jerk his comeuppance. The idiot really thought he was some kind of untouchable king. It was quite amusing to see him begging for forgiveness while sobbing."

I see, I guess that's what you would expect from a main heroine and her friend; they have a completely different mindset than the other girls.

Yukana: "By the way, Ken-kun... It's good that you let him go like this... From the way he reacted when you mentioned the Yakuza and the police, it seems that he really is a criminal; he might try to do something to you in the future."

Ranko: "Yeah... That guy was really annoying, but the thing about his father having an important position was true. It's possible that they send dangerous people to hurt you."

Kenichi: (They both have good instincts; it's just like you just said. Even though that jerk Oga got pretty scared, the humiliation in his emotions was higher. The odds are high that he'll try to do something; I'm going to have to deal with him soon).

Kenichi: "You don't have to worry about that... As you just saw, I was able to deal with him easily. Besides, what I told you about the Shuuei Clan, the police and the Arima Corporation is true, so it's in my best interest to try to do something to get proof... But you have nothing to worry about; I'll make sure you and your families don't get involved in all this."

As I told that idiot, I'm going to contact Police Commissioner Tachibana and also Raku's father. Although they are at odds because they belong to opposing organizations, they both care about the city, so I'm sure that the moment they discover that someone is freely using their influence to commit crimes, they will both join forces to crush him.

But I'm going to need proof. That's where I come in with my skills.

*Ding*

As I contemplated my next actions, the distinctive system notification sound again alerted me to a new reward.
