Chapter 460: Private Territory Flag!
March 28th, 4:25 AM. A faint touch of pale light appeared in the eastern sky, and the night had not yet fully retreated.
In a bedroom on the third floor of the luxurious villa in Meguro Ward—
Ring—!
The moment the alarm clock rang, Ryohei reflexively raised his hand and, with a smack, pressed the switch of the alarm clock resting on the nightstand.
He opened his sleep-heavy eyes, and the system panel automatically popped up—
[Infinite Entry System]
[Ability Entries]: [Luminous Cuisine (Gold)], [Luck (Blue, Inactive)], [Storage Space (Blue)], [Power of One Dragon (Blue)]...
[Item Entries]: [Delicious Obedience Dango * 10 (Blue)]...
"..."
Ryohei's gaze moved down, landing on "Extract Entry" at the very bottom.
With a thought, the text on the light screen quickly faded and disappeared. The background turned a deep black, and countless points of light flew towards him like meteors.
Finally—
A dazzling smear of blue occupied the entire light screen!
Then, a large amount of text emerged on the screen—
"Congratulations, you have obtained the Blue Item Entry — Private Territory Flag * 1!"
"Entry Effect: By planting this flag in an unclaimed land or within your territory, your territory will gain the following effects: 'Do Not Enter Uninvited' (Under normal circumstances, those who are not invited or are not residents of your territory will not enter), 'Respect Privacy' (Under normal circumstances, the territory will not be spied upon in any form), 'Protect the Environment' (Within your territory, the recovery speed of the ecological environment is multiplied)."
"(Note: The maximum effective range of this flag is 100 hectares!)"
"Good stuff!"
Ryohei's eyes lit up, instantly energized.
He turned his head and glanced at Yurine, who hadn't been woken up and was still sleeping soundly. He lifted the blanket and carefully got out of bed to wash up.
Meanwhile, his thoughts flew—
How should this flag be used?
Place it in Stardew Valley Ranch? Feels a bit like a waste, unnecessary.
Find an uninhabited island, plant the flag, and claim it?
Speaking of which...
Holding his toothbrush and cup, standing in front of the mirror brushing his teeth, Ryohei's heart stirred—
It was already spring, and before long, summer would arrive. And naturally, summer couldn't lack beaches and the sea!
The private beach they went to last year was very nice!
The sand was pure white and delicate, free of gravel and trash. The seawater was clear and transparent, and the privacy was excellent!
Ryohei wanted to claim an island with this kind of beach and sea!
Of course, he didn't need to strictly follow these conditions to find one—he could ask Lucoa and Pekola to artificially create a beach. The main thing was that the seawater must be clear and the climate conditions suitable.
At this thought, Ryohei couldn't wait to immediately knock on the door next door, and then ride Lucoa or Pekola to go find an island.
However, just two days ago, he had promised Minos to go for morning runs together for the next few days, so it wouldn't be good to break his promise.
The island matter could only be put aside temporarily.
"..."
"Ohayou~."
Coming downstairs, Minos had already changed into her sportswear and was doing warm-up exercises in the living room with Second, who was also wearing a white sports tank top and red athletic shorts.
As soon as she saw Ryohei, Minos enthusiastically raised her hand to greet him.
"Ohayou, Onii-chan."
Second followed with a greeting. Her voice was soft and weak, looking as if her sleepiness hadn't faded and she still wanted to continue sleeping.
Ryohei replied with a smile. Afterward, the three of them went out for a morning run together...
...
When the morning run ended and they returned to the villa, it wasn't even six o'clock yet.
Ryohei and Second went back to their respective rooms to shower, while Minos went to the gym to pump iron.
After finishing his shower—
Ryohei went next door full of energy and raised his hand to knock on the door.
Knock knock—!
"Is there something the matter, Ryohei-kun?"
Wearing a purple slip nightgown full of charm that couldn't hide her voluptuous figure, Lucoa, looking like a succubus, stood at the door. The corners of her lips curled up as she said:
"Could it be that you came looking for us sisters to get intimate? Truly bold!"
Without letting him explain, she pulled Ryohei into the room and pressed his face into her chest.
—She was a true expert at handing out fan service!
"No, it's serious business."
Ryohei placed his hands on Lucoa's slender, round, and fragrant shoulders, lifted his face, and said.
"What serious business could there be so early in the morning? Don't tell me you're just looking for an excuse."
Pekola leaned in, poked Ryohei's cheek with her finger, her tone as flat and unperturbed as always.
At the moment, she was wearing a cyan slip nightgown, the style slightly different from Lucoa's.
"What kind of person do you take me for!"
Ryohei held Pekola's slender white finger, opened the system panel, extracted the 'Private Territory Flag', and resting the flag on his shoulder, said: "Come out with me to plant a flag and claim some land!"
Lucoa's and Pekola's gazes almost instantly fell onto the 'Private Territory Flag'.
"...This is?"
Lucoa opened the eyelid of her left eye and examined it closely.
She could sense a magic power fluctuation emitting from the flag. It wasn't overly strong, but it faintly revealed magical auras akin to 'Cognitive Impairment' and 'Communing with Nature'.
"A little gadget."
Ryohei let go of Pekola's finger, looked at Lucoa, grinned, and said: "Hurry up and transform into your true form. Take me for a spin around the Okinawa area; I want to see if I can claim an uninhabited island."
There were a large number of uninhabited islands in the Okinawa region. Some of these islands were owned by individuals or corporations, while others belonged to the Japanese state or local governments.
—Theoretically, that was the case!
Ryohei didn't know if he could claim one either. It would be best if he could, but if not, he could only find someone to get him an island.
Not even counting the future fantasy ingredients, his very existence had greatly promoted the harmonious coexistence of humans and ghouls.
Having Takatsuki Sen and Marude Itsuki cough up an island for him wasn't too much to ask, right?
