Anyway, Yuki Suo could only be his.
Knowing these things earlier would make explanations less troublesome later on.
However, with Yuki’s extremely brother-complex personality, after successful capture, there would be no need for further explanation.
Instead, it was Yumi!
Her emotions were a bit subtle.
After all, it was ten years of affection.
Care from childhood to adulthood.
Plus, her views were somewhat traditional, so she might not be able to adjust immediately.
However, this matter was also easy to resolve; with more training, she would soon become obedient.
Returning to his room, changing the sheets, Shiro lay back down to explore the system’s details.
In his eyes, his own panel reappeared.
Strength, Agility, Stamina.
The average person’s base stats are around 1; after professional training, they can reach a maximum of 2.
Exceeding 2 already goes beyond the concept of an “ordinary person.”
So, with just the first “capture + training,” Shiro had already broken through the physical limits of professional training.
Ordinarily, three to five strong men couldn’t get close to Shiro empty-handed, but now, even if the opponents had cold weapons and their numbers doubled, he felt he could handle it.
Ha~!
Before, he was thinking of developing in the entertainment industry, achieving a small goal in three years, completely slapping the old man’s face, and taking control of the Suou Family.
Now with the system, Shiro’s pressure significantly decreased.
[Congratulations, host, you have completed the Newbie guidance.]
[The Newbie gift package has been distributed. Would you like to open it?]
[Congratulations, host, you have received two normal capture balls and one platinum capture ball.]
Shiro was a bit bewildered.
With a thought, three capture balls appeared before his eyes.
Seeing the familiar spherical shape and color scheme,
He immediately recalled the Poké Balls from a certain game.
[Capture Ball: 1. Can capture target characters. Once captured, the binding cannot be undone unless the character captured by the capture ball dies. host, please choose the character to capture carefully.]
[2. Capture balls generally possess healing abilities. As long as the captured character is not dead, putting it inside the capture ball will basically result in healing. However, different levels of capture balls have different healing effects; the higher the level of the capture ball, the better the healing effect.]
[normal capture ball: Can capture target characters with a favorability of 85 or higher. The host can dynamically gain 2 times the captured target’s overall strength (including skills). Character training gains increase by 10%, and training limit increases by 10%.]
[platinum capture ball: Can capture target characters with a favorability of 80 or higher. The host can dynamically gain 5 times the captured target’s overall strength (including skills). Character training gains increase by 20%, and training limit increases by 20%.]
Huh?
Dynamically gained!
So, this benefit changes with the character’s strength, right?
However, both of these balls only work on target characters in the compendium and also have a favorability requirement, which made Shiro a little regretful.
If he could catch anyone, wouldn’t he be invincible?
But this was already quite overpowered.
If he put a Tornado inside and dynamically obtained five times her strength, wouldn’t he just take off directly?
It’s just that capturing a super-strong character like Tornado is incredibly difficult!
However, Shiro was not in a hurry; you can’t get fat with one bite.
Some things just have to be taken slowly.
[Ding, a chain quest has been accepted: The Purpose of Capture Balls.]
[Quest Content: Successfully capture a target character with a capture ball!]
[Quest Reward: Two normal capture balls, one platinum capture ball.]
Every use of a capture ball must be carefully considered.
One spot, one person.
Once captured, the spot only becomes available again upon death.
Normal ball.
Yumi.
Shiro fell into deep thought.
He would wait a bit longer.
Perhaps after school starts tomorrow, he could find a more suitable target.
Sleep, sleep.
He’d go to school and take a good look first.
Taking a deep breath, clearing his mind of thoughts, Shiro fell into a deep sleep.
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle.
Yumi stood in front of the frying pan.
Scenes from last night unconsciously surfaced in her mind.
Crazy, truly crazy.
As a mother, how could she do such a thing?
How would she face Shiro and Yuki in the future?
And!
Whenever she thought of Shiro, a sweet feeling would always arise in her heart.
This made her unable to accept it, giving rise to a deep sense of immorality.
Although Shiro was not her biological son, still…
A burnt smell wafted to her nose, and Yumi suddenly awoke with a start.
She frantically dealt with the emergency in front of her.
Hiss~!
Her slender finger touched the edge of the frying pan.
She quickly put her finger under cold water to rinse it.
Then she put on a band-aid and prepared breakfast for the two of them again.
“Huh, why didn’t Mom come to wake us up today?”
“Didn’t you also not come to wake me up today?”
Yuki Suo’s eyes darted around.
She covered her forehead: “Tsk tsk tsk, my poor brother, it’s only been one day, and you’re already complaining.”
“What will you do if I’m not by your side in the future, huh?”
“Don’t worry, my adorable sister would definitely not bear to leave me.”
AI Model: gemini-2.5-flash
“Stop wasting time, Shiro. Starting today, you can’t take the family car to school anymore. You need to hurry.”
Yumi put down breakfast and turned to tidy up the kitchen.
Shiro looked at her graceful back, and the panel in his eyes appeared.
“Character: Yumi ”
“Loyalty (Affection): 82 (Highly Obedient)”
“Strength: 1.7”
“Agility: 1.5”
“Endurance: 1.6”
“Skills: Cooking LV4, Housework LV2.”
“Evolution Charge: 7%”
“Status: Melancholy”
Not bad.
Although her status became melancholy, her loyalty (affection) increased by two points.
This proved that Yumi didn’t blame him.
Instead, she was overthinking things herself.
Only three points of loyalty (affection) left.
How tempting.
“Brother, did you notice it too?”
“What?”
Yuki Suo leaned in mysteriously: “Mom got prettier again.”
The nourishment of love?
A timely rain after a long drought?
This girl was definitely hinting at him.
“Not at all. Mom has always been like this. It feels like she hasn’t changed at all in the past ten years.”
Shiro’s words made Yumi’s heart tremble, a slight sweetness rising within her.
Was Shiro saying that on purpose for me to hear?
No.
I can’t be like this.
This won’t do.
“Oh, right! I must have also inherited Mom’s excellent genes to be so cute!”
“Eat your breakfast quickly.”
Shiro quickly finished his breakfast, said goodbye, and rushed out the door.
As soon as he arrived at the bus stop, Shiro saw a familiar face.
Kato Megumi, wearing her school uniform and carrying her backpack, stood quietly, seemingly isolated from the rest of the world.
