I really don't want to open a harem here Chapter 4: Fortunately I have you, System

He clearly wished to remain uninvolved, yet the girl from his class proved far more persistent than he had anticipated. She persistently pulled him into conversations, and because of her, he now knew the location of his residence. Subsequently, he contacted the teacher and obtained both his address and class details. After bidding farewell to Akane Nanao, Mu Xiaoxiao crossed the street, observing the ordinary, bustling city with a peculiar expression. This world appeared perfectly normal on the surface, but only he, Mu Xiaoxiao, was aware of the true reality. He knew about the darkness lurking beneath the dazzling lights. Navigating the streets, he reached the familiar address of his home. An apartment building. "Eh? It's actually an apartment? Such a luxurious apartment is my home."

'And it's not rented, nor do I need to repay a mortgage.' The gift from the system is surprisingly generous. It bestowed status, a house, and language mastery. However, relying solely on these, there was no way he could defeat Tougou. If he hadn't received the S-class precognition ability as a reward, he would undoubtedly have been overpowered by the muscle coach. No, he would have been defeated without a doubt. 'What would have happened then? I dare not even consider it.'

"Looking at it this way, choosing to transmigrate into this world was a foolish decision from the start. If I had chosen another ordinary world, I wouldn't have encountered this kind of teacher, although the rewards wouldn't have been as substantial."

"The furniture is complete, even very luxurious." Mu Xiaoxiao took the elevator upstairs, opened the door, and stepped into the home provided by the system. All sorts of items were present within the house. His gaze swept across the room, taking in the various furnishings that graced the space. A comfortable couch occupied the living room, a sleek dining table stood in a corner, and a sturdy desk with a laptop was situated nearby. He quickly powered it on and began searching for the necessary information. Ten minutes later, his expression turned grave.

"Really nothing... Although it's still Japan, those familiar aspects have vanished. It can be confirmed that this is not the two-dimensional world I imagined, but another... peculiar world. Why? Why is it like this?? How can anyone possibly live in this kind of world??"

"Fortunately, I have a system." To be honest, surviving in this world without a system would be genuinely impossible. "Since I cannot change it, I can only become stronger step by step and ascend to the pinnacle of the world." "System, it's wonderful to have you by my side." It offered no response, nor did it appear to be doing anything beyond what was already activated. [Open] The [Beast Taming] skill, granted by the B-class reward, is considerably inferior to the [Predictive Eye] skill from the S-class reward. There's a disparity between the two skills, but once upgraded to S-class, any skill should not be underestimated. "In addition to upgrading skills, can skill points also enhance attributes?"

"Damn it, you brat!" The following day, Coach Tougou arrived at the school early, seething with anger in his guidance room. He would never forget the humiliation that student inflicted upon him yesterday! And then there was Akane Nanao, the manager of the baseball team. Her striking beauty and the alluring figure hidden beneath her clothes – he had no intention of giving her up either! "Students in the same class, none of you will escape... I'll definitely make you all pay the price!" With that, he headed towards the sports field. The club was also training in the morning. Upon arriving, Coach Tougou noticed Shouya Katase. Seeing his youthful demeanor, Tougou sneered inwardly. This fool doesn't even realize that his beloved nearly became his sex slave yesterday, and judging by his cheerful attitude, she hasn't informed him of what transpired. Heh. Even if she did, what could he do?

Shifting his gaze, he saw Akane Nanao also present, looking as lovely as ever. Many club members were discreetly admiring Akane Nanao; after all, she was incredibly charming. However, the girl seemed to be trembling, especially after spotting that familiar muscular physique, causing her to constantly avoid his gaze. As he walked towards her, Akane Nanao's expression grew more flustered; she gritted her teeth, wanting to flee. "Nanao, where do you intend to go?" Coach Tougou hummed emotionlessly, blocking her path. He looked down on her, exuding an oppressive aura. It was unfortunate that the gauze on her face marred the overall atmosphere. "It has nothing to do with you, Coach Tougou." Confronted by him, Akane Nanao clenched her fists tightly. The trauma from yesterday still lingered. Although she wasn't one to submit easily and possessed a strong character, this coach held absolute power within the baseball club. He was the one in charge here. If...

"I'm heading back to the classroom!"

"It's time for club activities. As the manager of the baseball department, you have to stay!"

His command left no room for argument.

"I..."

Feeling a surge of panic and discomfort, she instinctively sought out Katase Shouya, only to find he had already bolted.

Yet, upon noticing this, her mind drifted back to yesterday. When Coach Tougou had apprehended them, Shouya Katase had also fled in a panic. Akane Nanao could empathize with Shouya's fear, but... she couldn't help but feel a pang of disappointment.

"Mu, Mu Kun!"

Just then, Mu Xiaoxiao ambled across the school grounds, a schoolbag slung over one shoulder and a carton of milk in his hand. He nonchalantly chewed his straw as he continued on his path.

Upon seeing his figure,

Akane Nanao seemed to have discovered a lifeline. Her anxious heart instantly settled with a sense of security, and she waved her hand, calling out.

"Hm?"

Mu Xiaoxiao turned his head.

Damn!

What's with the sudden surge in muscle mass? Didn't it look entirely different yesterday?

'Why is he back at school as if nothing happened?'

He nearly coughed out his milk.

"Damn, this world is too much. Is it even possible to recover from a fatal beating in merely a day? Or was my strike not powerful enough?"

[Body]: 7 → 15

[Strength]: 8→20

[Agility]: 9–12

[Stamina]: 9 → 10

[Spirit]: 9→10

He allocated all 25 acquired skill points to his attributes. Compared to skills, fundamental attributes held greater importance, and these 25 points would significantly bolster his physical capabilities. The primary catalyst, however, was the S-rank reward from yesterday's ordeal, which directly granted 20 skill points.

There were bound to be numerous adversaries in this world, suggesting the potential for more system rewards. This might very well be the sole advantage available. With his attributes now greatly enhanced, engaging in another round would undoubtedly be devastating. Mu Xiaoxiao was already preparing himself, eager to test his newfound strength, but the crowded playground made it impractical for now.

"Mu Kun, I'm returning to the classroom. Let's go together,"

Akane Nanao approached Tougou, then sidestepped to Mu Xiaoxiao's side, speaking with a smile.

"..."

The imposing coach did not interfere. Instead, he fixed his gaze upon Mu Xiaoxiao, his expression darkening, his eyes like sharp knives that seemed capable of flaying flesh. Such a stare could easily send any student into a cold sweat, compelling them to avert their gaze. Mu Xiaoxiao, however, simply offered a smile in return. Catching Nanao's relieved glance as she moved towards him, his thoughts began to churn. In the next instant, he extended his arm and, with a fluid motion, wrapped it around her waist.
