Chapter 59 - 59: Change Of Thought
He guessed it would be fine to have some fun with his three toys tonight. It had been some time since he was able to enjoy three women at the same time.
This kind of made him remember about his previous life, and all his women. Where were they now, and what were they doing.
But he couldn't go after them yet, he had to become stronger and wealthier first, if he wanted to be able to provide them a safe future.
Of course, this didn't mean he was going to treat them like dolls in this life too, he would try and make them stronger, as much as they could.
The sub-systems were a perfect way for him to help them get stronger, and at the same time protect them.
With these thoughts in mind, he turned back and went to Akira's bedroom, where he could be alone and enter meditation, and finally start his cultivation as he should.
It wasn't that he didn't want to start cultivating from the beginning, but his body was too weak, not to mention that his meridians weren't connected.
But after passing the 10 level his meridians were connected, and the first thread of Qi was running through the meridians inside his body.
Without losing time, Eric entered the room, sat in the lotus position over the bed, and started to meditate. It was amazing.
No matter how many times he observed this view he would always get amazed, his meridians inside his body were like small galaxies, and the energy passed through them like the sunlight.
Making all of them start shining like small clusters of lights. The human body was truly a great creation, he didn't know how it came to be, but that was the goal of cultivation.
Trying to reach the peak of learning, and comprehending everything around you, the laws, the creation, life, death, chaos, and everything else.
In his past life, Eric had thought too many times about these topics, but his understanding was poor, and the technique he had was too low level.
Reaching what he had reached was already the maximum one could go. And yet he fought to go further, he was amazed by the unknown.
All the time though his spirit sense was active, the only people he could believe at the moment, were his slaves, and Akira. The simple reason because they couldn't harm him.
As for everyone else, at the moment they were only potential people by his side, none of them had his trust. Not even Yoshida Gina, and Tatsuya Minami, for who he had a soft corner.
In that position he started to repeat endlessly the first line of the cultivation technique, trying to understand as many mysteries out of it as possible.
In the meantime, his system was giving notifications, the big one at first.
! Congratulation! The Host has gained 100 Exp, and 100 SP, and 1 skill point due to starting his cultivation!
And then every minute a new notification popped up.
! Congratulations! The Host has gained 2 Exp out of cultivation!
.
.
.
! Congratulations! The Host has gain 3 Exp out of cultivation!
It was truly something amazing he had never expected something like this. He had already surpassed level 11 and was going for 12.
Not to mention that at the moment he had 3 skill points and a lot of SP points he could use. But he had to think well of their use.
Actually, he had thought about it and had made a decision firstly, he would use SP points to make the first upgrade of his skills, and then use the bonus points.
Like this, he would be able to upgrade them at least two times, and their use would be even better. This would be a huge boost to his strength.
He couldn't cultivate for more than 20 minutes though, because Akira and Tina had finished cooking and the table was ready to eat.
Sitting on the table Eric was satisfied with their efforts, they had cooked a nice meal, and there were no extra materials that could poison him.
While he knew Akira wouldn't do such a thing, he still had doubts about Tina, she was a hidden snake, and nobody knew when she would strike.
Eating their meal, Erik got up, and while he went to wash his hands, said,
Eric:" Akira, go and get ready we are leaving in 10 minutes, wear something nice. Tina just clean the place and stay inside, I don't think I need to remind you how important is to hide."
Tina seemed dissatisfied with his order, but there was nothing she could do, after all, most probably by now she had entered Yakuza's hit list.
While her priority shouldn't be high, she was still on the hit list and a really easy target. So there was nothing she could do at the moment.
Under 10 minutes, Akira seemed to be ready, and the duo left the apartment towards Kirigaya's restaurant.
While Akira didn't have much time to dress nicely, she still looked really hot in that dress, and light make up. That was why as soon as they got out of the taxi, people couldn't help but have a look at her.
Eric just placed her right hand around her hips, pulled her closer to himself, and made his way towards the entrance. The whole staff knew him by now, and none dared to block his way.
The problem was that the restaurant had become too popular lately, and there were lines of people every day to come here and enter the restaurant.
So of course when they saw someone cut the line, and try to enter they all got pissed off, and some people more than others, due to their reputation and background.
And one young lady in especial, while Eric was passing through the line with Akira, she cut their way, and said in a loud and arrogant voice,
Lady:" Who are you!? How dare you cut the line, and try to enter before me? Do you have a reservation to enter inside? Do you know who I am?"
Eric just had a look at her from head to toe, she wasn't bad. She looked to be around 16-18 years old, with red hair, and a good figure.
But her attitude was too arrogant and haughty, he didn't understand why she cut their way, after all, it was common knowledge that some people would reserve their place, and then enter easily.
And yet here he was being stopped by a girl who just wanted to enter inside, probably without reservation whatsoever.
Looking at the girl, with a confused expression, Eric just calmly responded,
Eric:" Why must I know who you are? I am just entering inside the restaurant, and yes I do have a reservation."
The girl seemed to go smug for a moment as if her plan had worked out and said,
Girl:" Well open your ears well, my name is Ito Akiha, and I am the Young Miss of the Ito family, now if you know what is good for you, you better hand over your reservation to me!"
Hearing that, Eric didn't know if he should laugh or cry, this haughty and arrogant girl was just trying to steal his non-existent reservation.
He didn't expect the restaurant to get so famous so soon though, while the Ito family wasn't one of the big families, they were still above average.
Just as expected, as soon as the crowd heard the girl's name, they were all shocked, and instinctively opened a way for her.
But that would only take her to the start of the line, not inside the restaurant, to enter inside she needed Eric's supposed reservation.
Her comment was heard even by the receptionist at the door, so thinking he was going to get a good favor for himself, he came in a humble attitude before the girl and said,
Receptionist:" Young Miss Ito Akiha, we are so sorry of our treatment to you, please let this humble servant be of assistance, and deal with this young man."
Ito Akiha just stood there with a haughty face, and made a cold harrumph, she didn't want to use her background, but she was pissed seeing Eric cut the line, and she had to wait.
The biggest reason why she dared to do that though was that he wasn't any of the Young Masters of a family bigger than hers in the city.
He must be just someone average who had done a reservation and waited for a long time. After all, this restaurant had become famous only in recent days.
Taking that harrumph as his sign, the receptionist without even properly looking at Eric, said,
Receptionist:" Dear Sir, I would advise you to…"
But his words were stuck on his throat the moment he saw Eric's face. All this time Eric had just calmly seen the development of the situation.
At first, he had thought to play a low-key role, until he had some kind of foot in this city, and developed a good army, but with the sub-system, his plans completely changed.
With the help of sub-systems, he could easily create strong generals that he could trust with his life since their lives were connected.
Not to mention, that he already had started to place his hands on the Yakuza. But the real breaking point was this girl cutting his way and acting like this.
Sometimes the most meaningless things are the breakpoints to someone's character and behavior, combined with his unstable emotions, Eric decided to just go the straight-ahead way.
Even if there wasn't a straight way, he would build one himself, and if someone blocked his way, well he would just have to get rid of the obstacle, wouldn't he?
Why would he need to lower his head in front of such idiots, and good for nothing? So looking at the duo in front of him…
