April 21st, Tuesday.
This was another day following the same routine as always.
No one seemed to have noticed anything different about him.
That was good.
With the help of the Great Sage, it became even easier to hide various things.
If even with the Tenshōgan he didn't notice anything unusual, the Byakugan wouldn't be capable of noticing.
...
The usual routine continued, without him going out for more tests for now, until April 29th arrived, Wednesday.
[<<You leveled up!
Bonus: 3x [Lottery Spin (Reward)]: Guaranteed an item or skill of Gold – Grandmaster Rank
Note: New Items became available in the shop>>]
'I reached Lv21.' He thought: 'Apparently, whenever I surpass 10 levels, something good happens.'
Normally, upon leveling up he only gains a points bonus, but this time, the bonus was even more generous than the last time. Triple the previous amount.
「[Luka Namikaze]
Species: Devil Slime
Title: [Devil King]
[Level: 21] – [828/450,000]
Template: [Acnologia – 0.2563625%]
Points: 55,502」
'Huh... I'm doing well, even without going out to 'hunt'.' He thought: 'At this rate, I'll soon be able to buy another set of [Devil's Pieces].'
Thinking about it now, the Great Sage was the best thing he could have wished to have.
Thanks to her, he even managed to find a way to 'assimilate' Acnologia.
Putting that aside, he murmured in his mind: 'Use 3x [Lottery Spin (Reward)]!'
[<<Congratulations, you obtained the skill: [Equipment Erza Scarlet (Platinum) – Lv.1 – 00% (Has more than 100 different types of armor, and more than 200 different types of weapons)!]
Congratulations, you obtained the skill: [Status Condition Nullification (Gold) – Lv.1 – 00% (Immunity against negative effects)!]
Congratulations, you obtained: [Rin Nohara Template (She possesses 10% of Isobu's (Three-Tails) chakra, which became perfectly integrated with her)!]>>]
"Heavens..."
Looking at the moon, he sighed softly.
Honestly, he was surprised... No! More than surprised!
Whether because of Rin Nohara, mainly because of the skill, Equipment Erza Scarlet.
It was almost like obtaining the [Gate of Babylon: Treasure of the King] with all of Gilgamesh's treasures.
'First, I'll learn the skill, Status Condition Nullification.'
[<<Skill [Status Condition Nullification (Gold) – Lv.1 – 00%] acquired>>]
'Now... As for Rin Nohara.' He thought: 'It will be interesting to summon her, but not now.'
Something this good needs to be used, but at the right moment.
As for the skill [Equipment Erza Scarlet], it was something he would leave for a girl to have.
'It could match Maki quite well.' He thought.

The next morning, Thursday, the 30th.
Today there would be a practical test of the three basic jutsus.
Everyone would have the chance to demonstrate in front of the class.
"Kyahhh! As expected of Sasuke-kun!"
As soon as Sasuke finished demonstrating the three basic jutsus, it was the next student's turn.
Little by little, everyone demonstrated a high level compared to students from other classes.
It's worth mentioning that this is the result of having two little monsters in the same class, causing so much pressure on them that even the laziest started putting in effort.
"So troublesome..." Shikamaru said that, but in the end, he was one of the best at executing the three basic jutsus.
"Luka Namizake."
When his name was called, Luka stepped forward, standing before everyone.
Onizuka-sensei said: "You may begin."
With a calm smile, he transformed into Onizuka-sensei, then created an identical clone, and then, the clone attacked him, only for a substitution log to appear.
The way he played around with the three basic jutsus was so exaggerated that even Onizuka-sensei swallowed a mouthful of saliva in astonishment.
"As expected!"
"Wow!"
"Luka-kun is the best!"
Waving while smiling, he asked as he turned around: "Onizuka-sensei, may I go back?"
Coming back to his senses, Onizuka-sensei replied: "Good work, you may return to your seat."
Passing near Hinata, he heard her murmur: "Luka-kun, congratulations."
"Thank you." He smiled at her.
At the same time he heard the Great Sage's voice, a holographic page appeared before him.
[<<Mission [The path of a Slime Ninja III] successful!
You gained: 3x Lottery Spin], [+700 Points], [+500 EXP]>>]
It didn't take long for a new page to appear.
[<<Mission: The path of a Slime Ninja IIII]
Objective: Graduate from the Ninja Academy as the best student in the class.
Rewards: [2x Lottery Spin (Reward)], [+100,000 Points], [+1,000,000 EXP]>>]
"..."
Until he could complete the mission, it would take years, but in return, the reward was quite generous.
Maki held his hand, her eyes shining with adoration: "Oniichan, you were really cool!"
[–0–]
During the lunch break, Ino asked a somewhat unexpected question, but one that caught many people's attention.
"Hey, Luka-kun." She asked: "Do you prefer girls with short hair or long hair?"
"Mmm..." He became thoughtful. It wasn't like he had a very strong preference regarding a girl's hairstyle, but if he had to choose: "I think I prefer long hair."
"Then, I'll let my hair grow~!" She hummed.
When Maki heard that, she became armed to the teeth, making a sound like: "Rawh!", she exclaimed: "Oniichan is mine!"
Ino wasn't offended, in fact, she laughed a little: "Yes, he is your Oniichan."
"That... I..." Maki was caught off guard, becoming a little confused, not knowing how to react to that.
"So cute~!" Ino hugged her.
Hinata, who was eating with her head lowered, murmured quietly: "So, Luka-kun prefers long hair..."
[–0–]
At home, Maki threw herself into her mother's arms, whining: "Mama, just listen..."
"What happened, my dear?" Kushina stroked Maki's bright crimson hair with a loving smile.
Maki began telling everything that happened at school, even about what Ino asked and the girls' reactions.
Secretly, Kushina laughed a little, but in front of her daughter, she acted seriously.
"As you said, Luka is excellent." Kushina said softly: "Even in my time, perhaps only your father could compare to him. It's normal for that to make girls feel attracted to him."
"But..." Maki pouted.
Kissing her daughter's forehead, Kushina whispered something into her ear.
When Maki heard that, all her annoyance and frustration disappeared like a cloud of smoke.
"Really!?" Maki wanted confirmation.
"Yes, true, absolutely true – Dattebane!" Kushina confirmed.
"Yay!!"
Maki was happier than on her 5th birthday.
