Hayasaka Ai: "So, what should I do?"
Shinomiya Kaguya was flipping through various manga books.
"I think, Hayasaka, you should first put some effort into your outfit..... for example.... and also..."
Hayasaka Ai nodded, "I've naturally thought about this, but it's still not safe. What if Ryo-kun rejects me...."
Shinomiya Kaguya sighed, "Then what else do you want to do?"
Hayasaka Ai: "How about I get someone to procure some computer accessories?"
Shinomiya Kaguya tilted her head. Pure as she was, she didn't know what Hayasaka Ai was talking about.
"What computer? Is there such a thing as computer return management in this world?"
Anyway, taking the initiative.... isn't something that can be achieved just by wanting to.... Hayasaka Ai shook her head.
If she used those "computer accessories," it would be a situation where the fish dies and the net breaks.... though the thing that breaks certainly wouldn't be a fishing net.
Time dragged on until midnight. Shinomiya Kaguya fell into a deep sleep, and Hayasaka Ai began her operation!
In the guest room where Uchiha Ryo was staying, Hayasaka Ai tiptoed to the bedside. Sure enough, he was asleep....
Hayasaka Ai reached out and stroked Uchiha Ryo's cheek, then gently placed her finger on Uchiha Ryo's eyelid.
"Ryo-kun's eyelashes are very long, and his eyes are very beautiful too...."
However, she wasn't here to look at Uchiha Ryo's eyes right now, nor was she going to gouge them out. Instead, she was judging Uchiha Ryo's sleep condition through his eyes.
Judgment of sleep level.
It is well known that human sleep can be divided into light and deep stages. To judge what stage of sleep a person is in, one can touch the eyelid to feel the movement of the eyeball.
REM (Rapid Eye Movement). After Hayasaka Ai touched Uchiha Ryo's eyelid, she quickly determined that Uchiha Ryo was still in a light sleep state.
So far, everything was going smoothly. Hayasaka Ai took a deep breath.
In this situation, Uchiha Ryo had already revealed a flaw! If one exposes their back to the enemy, it is only natural to be beaten.
Speaking of light sleep, what do you think of? That's right, dreams! According to scientific statistics, if a person hears sounds from the outside world during light sleep, they are likely to dream of similar content.
Hayasaka Ai sat on the bed, lowered her head, and whispered in Uchiha Ryo's ear.
"Ryo-kun~ Come here, Ryo-kun, I am here—"
Dream interference! The brain does not stop activity during REM sleep. The principle of interference is that the active brain will automatically process the information it hears, so theoretically, using language to interfere with dreams is a completely feasible operation!
"...."
Uchiha Ryo's eyelids moved, and Hayasaka Ai stopped making noise, waiting for the result of the interference.
If it didn't work, she would try again after Uchiha Ryo fell asleep more deeply.
Uchiha Ryo: "....Ugh.. Hayasaka..."
Got it!! It seems I have already appeared in Uchiha Ryo's dream.
Next, she just needed to let Uchiha Ryo dream of doing this and that with her.... a dream that would make him very awkward when he woke up. The second step would be complete!
"Ryo-kun, you are free. You can do whatever you want~"
After speaking, Hayasaka Ai quietly retreated. She wanted to see if Uchiha Ryo would make any funny movements because of the dream.
Uchiha Ryo murmured. "Free.... over there across the sea...."
However, regrettably, Uchiha Ryo still lay there flat. Apart from his lips moving slightly to speak a few words of sleep-talk, there was no movement at all.
"What's going on? Doesn't the book say that when men have dreams about spring, they will stand up like this and that! Why is there no movement?"
Hayasaka Ai, whose knowledge and information all came from books, tilted her head in confusion. It seemed that knowledge from books and the internet couldn't be fully trusted. But since Uchiha Ryo was sleeping.....
Then let's just sleep peacefully. Anyway, nothing will happen. Let everyone just slack off—
.....
But no matter what.... Hayasaka Ai's night raid operation was a complete failure. Because her courage was completely insufficient, she could only retreat halfway through as if she were giving up.
In the morning, Uchiha Ryo, who woke up first, rubbed his temples. The recent developments were a bit fast; even he himself was a bit unadjusted to it....
Wait a minute, why haven't there been any system messages during this time? The affection levels of Chitanda, Hayasaka Ai, and Yukinoshita should have all increased, right?
System: It was the host who turned on 'Do Not Disturb' for messages—
Uchiha Ryo: "....Fine, fine, fine... turn it on temporarily for me to see."
Entering the system interface again, the two latest messages popped up.
[Detected that Chitanda Eru's affection for you exceeded 60 points. Reward: Sage Body and a large amount of Yang Release Chakra.]
[Detected that Hayasaka Ai's affection for you exceeded 80 points. Reward: The Hokage's Scroll of Seals.]
Uchiha Ryo stood up and looked out the window. At this moment, Hayasaka Ai opened the door and entered, but her eyes widened in surprise.
Not knowing if it was an illusion, Hayasaka Ai found that the feeling Uchiha Ryo gave off was different. It was a transformation of temperament.
The original Uchiha Ryo always gave people a feeling of being unapproachable. Although his personality was gentle, anyone could feel the naturally cold aura of Uchiha Ryo.
But now... the young man was like a spring breeze, like a male protagonist walking out of a manga. He was so sunny and handsome, giving people an indescribable sense of security and trust.
The massive Yin Release Chakra of the Uchiha clan was harmonized by a large amount of Yang Release Chakra the moment the reward was claimed.
This feeling was truly wonderful. Perhaps this is what Uchiha Madara once said: the unity of Yin and Yang creates the power of all creation.
He bit off a piece of Hashirama's flesh and sewed it onto himself, only achieving the effect of Yin-Yang unity in his old age. But Uchiha Ryo was different. This fundamental change was purer!
However, to autonomously evolve the Rinnegan, something was still missing.... The power of the Six Paths, the chakra of Indra and Asura, or rather.... the chakra of the Otsutsuki clan.
Well~ no rush for this. To be honest, Uchiha Ryo really felt that the ripple-patterned eyes weren't as cool as the Sharingan. It was better to study the newly obtained Scroll of Seals first.
