[Mission randomly generated.]
[Main Quest 1: Teigu Plunderer.]
[Description: I'm too lazy to say much else. Use any means necessary to seize ten Teigu and store them in the storage space of the tester and their teammate. Upon completing Main Quest 1, you may choose to return to the main world or continue the mission.]
[Generating buffs for the tester in this world.]
[Buff generation complete. The tester has received: Knight of Owner, Ittou Shura.]
[Knight of Owner: Grants the weapon in hand the properties of one's own Noble Phantasm, ranking it as a D-rank Noble Phantasm.]
[Ittou Shura: Usable once a day. Condenses all one's power for one minute. After use, the body will be severely weakened.]
[Generating team buff for the tester's party.]
[Buff generation complete. The tester's party has received: Perfect Synchronization.]
[Perfect Synchronization: Allows the minds and bodies of the two party members to be perfectly attuned. After synchronization, the physically weaker member's stats will be raised to match the stronger member's. Additionally, after synchronization, both members can vaguely sense each other's thoughts.]
After these messages appeared in his mind, Aaron fell into deep thought.
He couldn't say the three buffs the system gave him weren't strong.
Knight of Owner allowed him to obtain a combat weapon when he had none. While a D-rank Noble Phantasm isn't strong in the Fate series, in the Akame ga Kill! world, it should be considered a divine weapon.
But getting a powerful weapon didn't mean you'd automatically win.
Equipment was one thing; experience and skill were another.
Even experts could be tricked and beaten in a duel. Aaron didn't think he could just transform into some overpowered protagonist, slash his way through enemies, and complete the mission just because he got a strong weapon.
After all, his combat and weapon skills were just beginner-level abilities from the system's skill books. If he really had to fight those experts, he'd be lucky not to get instantly crushed.
No need to mention Ittou Shura. It was a classic power-up skill.
But the price was losing most of his mobility after one minute. If he couldn't defeat all his enemies within that minute, the weakened Aaron would probably be easily killed anyway.
As for Perfect Synchronization, this ability was actually a hidden boost for Aaron.
After all, his physical stats were crap, definitely no match for the powerhouses in the original story.
This ability compensated for his physical shortcomings, making it, in a way, the most practical of the three buffs.
In short, these three skills had some power, but they weren't brainlessly overpowered.
If he got cocky, he figured he wouldn't survive past the first two episodes.
"Hey, how come you're suddenly not talking?"
Seeing that Aaron was silent again, Kiana's tone softened slightly as she walked over to Aaron and spoke to him.
"I understand the situation now. I was wrong earlier, I'm really sorry."
"Ah, don't worry about it. The fact that you're not angry and throwing a tantrum is already a huge help."
Looking at the girl in front of him, Aaron suddenly shrank back and began to take something out of his storage space.
"Eh? Why are you moving so far away? Could it be, you're shy... What is this?!"
Kiana, who had been about to tease him, suddenly looked at what Aaron pulled out as if it were garbage, her previous apology forgotten.
"You... Pervert! As a man, why are you carrying women's clothes!"
"Pervert, my ass! Hurry up and change."
Averting his gaze, Aaron tossed the clothes onto the bed and said helplessly.
"Before I got here, I guessed you might not have heard the message. Considering the teleportation time was at night, you'd probably be wearing clothes that aren't easy to move in."
"This outfit is, at least, easier to move in than pajamas, right? Or do you plan on walking around town in your pajamas?"
"If you want to, I definitely won't stop you."
"...Well, thanks for that."
Picking up the clothes, Kiana chuckled.
"You're surprisingly thoughtful."
"Hmph. Not scatterbrained like *someone* who almost treated me like a kidnapper."
"You're still hung up on that, huh... But well, misunderstanding you was my fault, but one thing at a time."
Kiana, holding the clothes, walked back to her bed and suddenly spoke to Aaron in a slightly threatening tone.
"No peeking."
"I won't!"
"Oh... so you're saying I'm not worth peeking at?"
"...Think whatever you want."
Looking at Aaron, who had turned his back completely, the serious expression that had just appeared on Kiana's face turned into a sly grin.
Hehe, this guy is so innocent.
Hmm, at first I thought he was a kidnapper, but now...
Wait, what's going on?
After putting on the bra, Kiana suddenly felt something was wrong.
The clothes were fine; the fabric was even better than what she usually wore. She had no complaints about the clothes.
No, it wasn't just that she had no complaints; she was *too* satisfied.
Besides the fabric feeling incredibly comfortable, the size of the outfit was also a perfect fit.
But the problem was...
—Why... does this guy know my clothes size???
