33 The Burgess Family's Gift (Part I)
Resting in bed, I remembered the gift that the Burgess family had given. Reina's family had wrapped the present, so what I got isn't known.
Opening the gift from my ring, I got five presents. The presents given weren't exactly big, but not it doesn't mean that the gifts weren't good.
Starting with the gift that Tristan had given, I unwrapped it and saw what I got. Brother-in-law, I knew reviving you was a good choice. They do say good deeds get rewarded. Or was it the other way around? Well, it doesn't matter, what I got was good.
Tristan gave me a watch. And along with the watch, a hologram of Tristan popped out of nowhere.
"Hello, Charles. It took a while for me to think about how I could repay you. And this was the best thing I could think of. Don't be too disappointed. This watch isn't like any other watch."
"This message is prerecorded, so any questions you have won't be answered."
Shutting me down with the questions I would ask, I continued listening to Tristan.
"Anyways, the watch I gave you is one of Burgess's new technologies. Not only could this replace your phone, but also your space rings."
"Try putting the ring inside of your wristwatch. Upon doing so, the space of your ring will improve by ten times; impressive, isn't it?"
Ten times... I paid fifty million, and this watch increased that value by ten times. Half a billion coupled with more features. Worthy of being my brother-in-law.
"Since these wristwatches are newly developed, there may be glitches. But overall, it shouldn't be too harmful. I gave you two extra, and I hope you give Reina one of them."
"Later."
Though it was a short introduction, it wasn't hard to navigate. I was looking at Reina. She was latching on me tightly. Listening to Tristan's recording must've woken her up.
"Are you hurting anywhere?"
Reina had passed out like me, so she had to be exhausted.
"I can't move..."
Even though she is grumpy from the numbness that she is feeling, her clinginess is cute. I still have four more presents left, and I intend to show them to Reina's face.
"Don't worry. Nene is getting us food. And besides, you still owe me a skill-leveling capsule. I haven't forgotten about that."
Reina sighed, seeing how I was. I can't help it. I lived in a poor environment, so I love getting stuff just for the sake of it.
"Here, I was planning on giving to you yesterday, but who knew that we would have a steamy night."
Getting what Reina had got, it was indeed a skill-leveling capsule. With my fiance handing me power up, I absorbed it immediately.
[Skill Level Up]
[Only Skill For This is Target Of Misfortune]
[Target Of Misfortune is now at the third level]
[Target Of Misfortune: Rank EX (Level: 3)]: This allows the skill to cause misfortune upon the desired user. It can't be removed unless the caster allows it to do so. It could only be used if the target is within 5 kilometers of you. The user is now allowed to remove any misfortune upon anyone.
Five kilometers... But to think that I would get an extra buff with my skill. My skill only allowed me to influence one's misfortune. Now I have complete control over it.
My rank, which was 882, is now 425. Wow, more than half of my rank has risen. Not only that, but I'm now first in the ranking skill.
Being first, I wanted to celebrate. Reina, the nearest to me, took the brunt of my hug. Reina squealed, not expecting me to do such a thing.
"Not right now. I'm still too sore."
With my hug, Reina had misunderstood what I was doing.
"Get your mind out of the gutter. Look at my ranking overall and in skill."
Reina blushed, misunderstanding the situation. But looking at my rank, her eyes widened in surprise.
"As expected from my fiance. I have a sight for men."
My fiance nodded, complimenting herself. That is pretty shameless. I did all the work to achieve this far. Even though I barely did much. But I have to say. My decision is on point.
"Master~! Food is here."
Nene, who was getting food for me, has returned. I was getting hungry, and most of the day had already passed.
Thinking about it, I had just realized what I had said. Does everyone in the house know what I did... It was already late in the morning. Someone was bound to check up on us during our rest.
Since the majority of the servants are girls... It would be awkward to meet any of them in the eye.
"Nene, look at my rank."
I smiled brightly. I'm now the top dog here. Nene, who looked at my rank, was shocked. She had almost dropped the food. Luckily I reacted fast enough for me to get it.
"Master~! You're amazing..."
The usual cheerful Nene lost her usual tone. The smile she radiated was one different from a playful one.
"Master, you are the right choice."
Nene had mumbled quietly to the point where I could barely hear what she said. But seeing her meant it was nothing terrible.
"Nene, did you eat yet?"
"I did it while you were asleep. But eating more isn't a problem."
"..."
Nene is a glutton. I had forgotten. Nene got a delicately hand-crafted sandwich made by a sweet old granny.
"Small tits~! There are some for you."
"Small tits..."
"Don't you think that's too much of a low blow?"
"She ruined our alone time, so it's only fair~!"
"Small tits..."
Reina then stared at Nene's chest and compared hers to Nene's. I don't think that would help, but to think Reina would have that much of a complex.
You learn something new about these people each day. Taking a bite of a ham sandwich, I couldn't help but think they were tasty. Yum.
