The Laziest System: Sign-Up System

Chapter 8: Chapter 8



|It has been a week! Your gift is ready! Do you want to take it?|

|Accept?| |Y/N|

I blink for a second and press the Y button. This is the first time the system appeared just after I woke up.

I sit on the bed and brace for something to hit my head. However, after waiting for a few seconds, nothing happened. I open my eyes and look at the system in front of me.

|Congratulations! You get One thousand two hundred Bitcoin|

|The currency has been sent to your Wallet|

I frown a little and open up my phone. I check my wallet and see I just got a thousand two hundred bitcoin. I don't need them because I still have many bitcoins in my wallet, but I will take them.

I will not reject free money.

I get up from the bed and stretch a little. After fixing my bed, I get to the bath and clean myself. Today is an easy day. We only learn theory and train our magic casting speed—no sparring or physical activity.

After taking a bath, I go downstairs and cook some breakfast. A bowl of fried rice and fried vegetables on the side is done. I eat all the food and take my bag.

~Later that day~

"What do you want to do now, Ryan?"

I look at Karin and Yuki, who look half-dead. They are struggling in their mundane study, and if not for me, they would be dead by now because of the work.

"Hmmm, I need to search for someone to create a barrier around my house. I want to train inside my house without the mundane people noticing."

"Oh~ You have yet to make a barrier, huh?~" Karin jumps at me. "I have a few people in mind."

I look at her and say.

"Really? Can you give me their number or address? Also, do you know the price?"

"Hmmm, the price is a bit pricey, but I know you will get the best barrier!"

"Sure. I will trust you. Can you tell them that I want their best magical ward? Price is not an issue."

"Really?!"

"Yup."

"Thank you~."

Karin hugs me tightly.

"Don't worry! You will get the best!"

I look at Yuki, asking for help. The nekomata sighs and pulls the vixen away from me. I can see Karin pouting at both Yuki and me. After getting put down by Yuki, Karin looks at me and says,

"Anyway, I will tell them about you, and they will soon call you."

"Thank you, Karin."

"Don't mention it~."

|Yuki - Youjutsu Practitioner Nekomata|

"Karin, you don't need to do that, you know?"

I look at my best friend with a serious expression. Karin looks at me and gives me a gentle smile.

"You don't need to worry, Yuki."

"However, you use our friend! I feel bad for Ryan."

"I know. I feel bad too. However, you need that money; your parents need it. Their business is about to collapse, right? You need at least one client to make sure it keeps running. Ryan is a perfect client. He is a new rising star and will have a lot of people coming to him, trying to make him their friend. With him as your client, your family business will thrive."

"But when he knows about it, he will hate you."

"What? Ryan? He will understand. I know that when he knows that your family business is going down, he will give you a lot of money, and I know how you hate being pitied by others. I know who you are, Yuki. You are a strong woman who wants to stand on your two feet. However, you also need help, Yuki. You have been doing too many side jobs to ensure your little brother gets the best education. You need to relax a little bit and let your friend help you. As for Ryan, don't worry. I will explain it to him, and I know he will understand. If he is angry, I will be the one to take all of his anger."

"There is also a problem of money, you know? We are not a big business. We did not have a massive backing like a lot of Ward Making business. It will cost him a lot of money."

I look at Karin seriously. I blink for a few seconds when I hear her start laughing.

"What? Stop it!"

"Hahahahaha… You don't need to worry about that, Yuki."

"Huh?"

"Let me tell you something. I hear from the wind that he is a multi-billionaire. I hear that his assets are more than fifty billion yen."

"F-Fifty billion?!"

Karin smirks at me and nods her head.

"How do you know?"

"Fufufufu~ I have my way~"

I can only sigh at her answer. It is a mystery that I will never know. Karin might look innocent and airhead at the time, but she has a talent for gathering information. Even the head of the Police Department wants her on their team.

"Anyway, after knowing this information, I hope you will not use him."

Karin looks at me with a serious expression.

"I like him, and I don't want him to hate us. I already lost a point for what I did but I know it will not make him hate us."

"Don't worry, Karin. You have known me since I was a child. I'm not that kind of woman."

Karin gives me a bright smile and says.

"Of course! Anyway, come on! I'm hungry and want to eat some ramen!"

I smile and follow her. Karin is an enigma to me. However, she is still my friend.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I look at both young women in front of me for a few seconds and release a sigh. Karin gives me a grin while Yuki looks guilty.

It's been five days since I asked Karin to search for people that can make a barrier around my house, and behold what I learned. The people she recommended are Yuki's parents.

"Karin, I know you want to help Yuki, but you can tell me the truth. I know you did not want to make me feel bad and pity you but you can tell the truth."

"We are sorry."

Karin and Yuki speak at the same time. I sigh a little and say.

"Fine. Anyway, come on. I will give you a tour to my house."

"Yay~"

I sigh a little when Karin jumps at me, and now I must carry her. I can't stay mad at them. I take them to the basement and show them the training room.

"This is the training room. Yuki's dad is the one making this one. I must say that this is great."

It cost me over a billion JPY for all the renovation, documents, and barriers around the house. They manage to make an underground facility that lets me train and experiment. They also manage to let me buy the land and property. The barrier allowed me to train my magic without any worry about being noticed by mundane people.

Not only that, but they also make a barrier to notify me if someone gets inside my home. That is among many protective functions of the barrier.

"Eh~ This costs you a lot of money, right?"

I shrug a little and say.

"Yeah, it is a little bit pricey but the result is good."

"You pay more than a billion!"

I look at Yuki and smile.

"Yeah, a little bit pricey."

I need to sell quite a bit of bitcoin to pay them, but I'm happy with the result.

"Y-You"

"Don't worry about it, Yuki. Money is not a problem if the result is good."

Yuki looks at me with a disbelieving expression and says.

"Thank you."

"Hmm? What for?"

"Thank you. That amount of money is enough to take my brother to college."

"Don't mention it. Most of that money is to buy the land and the building."

"That will not cost more than five hundred million at most."

"Your parents give me great service and deserve that money."

I can hear Yuki sigh and smile at me.

"Anyway, this is the training room. Your parents are kind enough to make this training room have an auto-repair function. Not only that, they also make a gravity chamber at that corner."

I point at the small room in the corner where they create an array of seals to let me use a gravity chamber.

"The last thing is the underground garden over there. They put another array of seals to let the sunlight get into the plant inside the garden."

Both of them nod, and I continue to show them around. After another minute of showing them around, I look at them and say.

"So, do you guys want to have some spar?"
