Chapter 13 - 13.

Huh?

A new skill?

And what is up with its name?

I am not overpowered.

Maybe my system is 'Not a System'.

First, that Not a Byakugan, and now, I am not Overpowered.

What kind of names are these?

Shouldn't it be more like 'Overpowered Lord' or 'Unlimited Chakra' or 'Infinite Power' or something like that?

Hmm...

Well, I don't think it matters that much.

After all, as long as the skills are powerful I don't care what they are called.

I am not Overpowered, whatever.

'Anyway, the system said I can proceed with the second step now.'

So lets go to the town hall and complete the quest.

I should probably ask her about the marriage registration.

"Rael!" I was just going to ask my future wife about the marriage registration, but...

"Rael!"

I was about to open my mouth, but before I could, I heard her shouting my name.

"Something is happening, Rael. My body...it's getting warm..."

Huh?

"I feel like i am getting strong."

Getting strong?

Maybe she is still in the process of recovering her health?

Then, why is she saying her body is getting warm.

I don't get it.

Is it normal?

Is that supposed to happen?

I don't know.

"Don't worry. Just stay calm. Everything will be alright."

I grabbed her left hand tightly and looked into her eyes.

"Trust me."

She didn't say anything.

Instead, she just nodded her head.

And then she closed her eyes.

Her hand was really hot, it was burning.

She looked like she was in pain.

But, I didn't panic.

I didn't freak out.

I stayed calm.

And just then I noticed something.

It was a faint, white light coming from her body.

It was so faint that it was barely visible.

And soon it vanished.

Ding!

[Your fiance 'The Purple Haired Girl' has reached 100% health. Congratulations, host!]

'Thank God...'

I sighed as I felt her temperature slowly cooling down.

"Are you feeling better now? How are you feeling?"

She was sweating.

Her breathing was heavy.

Her cheeks were flushed and her eyes were wet.

"I-I-I-I am okay. It's just that...I don't know how to explain it. I feel...too much strength, and my chakra is overwhelming me."

"What?"

'Too much strength? Too much chakra? What does that mean?'

"It's strange. I don't know what is happening. But, I feel like my body is bursting with power. I feel so alive."

"Oh, really? That's good."

"I think I can walk now."

"Yeah, but are you sure? Maybe you should wait a little. Just to make sure. I don't want you to fall."

"No, I am okay. Really. I feel fine. I think I can stand up."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, I am sure. Please help me get up. I need to stand up. I want to stand up."

"Okay, okay. Calm down. I will help you."

I took her right hand and held her by her elbow.

"Now, slowly get up."

I helped her get off the bed and onto her feet.

"Okay, now, let's see if you can stand on your own."

I slowly released my grip on her.

And she stood there, on her own, without falling.

"See, I told you I can walk. Haha, it's amazing. I can't believe this."

She looked really happy.

"That is great."

"Yeah, now I can walk with you, stand beside you, and be with you. I am so happy."

"Haha, yeah."

I laughed awkwardly.

"Ahem, now that you have recovered your health should we go and register our marriage, maybe?"

I scratched my chin with my left hand.

She looked at me with wide eyes without answering, her cheeks turned red, then she broke her gaze.

"Y-Y-Yes."

"Okay, let's go. I will take you."

"O-O-Okay."

I took her left hand and held it gently.

"Ok, I am going to remove this genjutsu now. Be prepared."

"No! Wait!"

She quickly grabbed my hand with her right hand.

"What is it?"

"Can you keep this genjutsu on for a while? I want to look at you for a little longer. I want to look at the ring." She said while her gaze was wandering at the grass on the ground.

'She looks so cute.'

I chuckled.

"Of course. If you want we can lay on the grass and look at the sky. What do you think?"

"Really, will you do that?"

"Of course."

"Thank you, Rael."

She hugged me.

Her head was resting against my chest.

"Let's do that."

We went to the grass and laid down.

We stared at the sky for a while and enjoyed each other's presence.

"By the way, how did you do it? How did you make such a perfect illusion? I can't believe you created such a beautiful world. And not only that, I can feel everything. The warmth of the sun, the cool breeze, the soft grass, everything. This is just incredible."

"Hmm, I can't tell you how I did it. It's a secret."

I don't even know myself, so how am I supposed to tell her?

"Please, just tell me."

She was begging.

"No."

"Please."

"Nope."

"Why not?"

"Because you are beautiful when you beg. So, I will never tell you."

"Stop joking. Tell me."

"No."

"Please, I want to know."

"Sorry, I can't tell you."

I don't really know. It just happened. Maybe the system took care of everything.

"Hmph, Fine, I will figure it out by myself." She pouted and looked away.

I was going to say something but decided to keep my mouth shut.

Cause...

"Oh, look. A cloud."

A big, fluffy, white cloud was passing over us. Well, because I created the illusion of a cloud and made it pass.

"Wow, it looks like a tiger."

"Yeah, it does."

We stared at the sky and the clouds for a long time.

After some time, I decided it was time to head to the Town Hall.

'Okay, it's time.'

We should go before it gets dark.

"Let's go. We should go and register our marriage before it gets late."

"Oh, yes. Okay, let's go."

"But, before that, I will have to release the Genjutsu. So, are you ready?"

Instead of answering she moved her hand and touched my cheek.

'What is she doing?'

"Yeah, I am ready. Please, remove the genjutsu."

"Alright, close your eyes."

"Okay."

She closed her eyes and...

Ding!

[The Genjutsu has been broken.]

[Skill 'Not a Byakugan' Deactivated.]

My right eye changed back and the whole world turned back to its normal state.

"You can open your eyes now."

"Okay."

She opened her eyes and blinked a few times.

Then her hand, which was touching my cheek, moved in a way as if tracing my face.

'The ring could only recover her health and nothing else. So, she is still blind.'

I didn't say anything.

"You are lovely."

She smiled, and her cheeks turned pink.

I was about to say something, but again, before I could, she continued.

"So, are we going or not?" Her voice was low, she was embarrassed, and her face was flushed.

"Yeah, let's go. Come, give me your hand."

"Okay."

I grabbed her hand and helped her stand.

She was a little wobbly, but she managed to stay upright.

"Now, hold on to me, okay. Don't let go."

"Ugh, okay."

"Let's go."

"Yes."
