I can use Reading Points to increase proficiency?
Hoshino Ai, who read the diary every day, of course knew about Reading Points, but she hadn't frantically interrogated the diary like Shinomiya Kaguya. She only knew that after accumulating a certain number of Reading Points, she could raise her permission level for the diary.
Now that she knew Reading Points also had this use, it was a pleasant surprise.
Hoshino Ai didn't think too much. She had three Reading Points now. She would just use one point first to see the effect.
And then a portion of insights regarding the cultivation of Hamon flooded into her brain.
The content was not much, but when she tried to adjust her breathing rhythm in the way she rembered, she was surprisingly proficient, as if she had already been practicing day and night for several days.
Hoshino Ai closed her eyes and experienced the feeling of the mory transfer. Although this experience might not be useful, who knows, maybe it could be used one day?
"It seems I can already stimulate the life energy in my body quite proficiently... and this is just one Reading Point. I wonder if this convenient function can be used in other places?"
The mysterious fan ntioned that it takes about a week for an ordinary person to practice Hamon to stimulate their life energy. In that case, does one Reading Point roughly equal one week of practice?
Hoshino Ai made a simple judgnt.
"The diary ntioned that it takes about a month for an ordinary person to master ripple breathing. If one Reading Point is equivalent to a week, then won't I be able to master ripple breathing after the diary updates tomorrow!" After doing the math, Hoshino Ai's eyes lit up.
It had only been the third day since she obtained the diary, and it had already given her such a big surprise. She was getting a little excited about the changes that would co after her diary permission was unlocked.
Would it allow her to contact other diary holders? Or more directly, could she beco pen pals with her mysterious fan through this diary?
"But it's already the third day, and no one has co to find yet. Are the other diary holders still waiting and watching? Or am I the only one who has obtained a diary so far?"
But then Hoshino Ai thought again and felt that it was impossible for her to monopolize such luck.
As a young female idol, her contact information was of course private. Very few people knew her personal mobile phone number.
Communication with the outside world was all handled by her nominal adoptive father, who was also the president and manager of Strawberry Productions, the company that had brought her into the entertainnt industry, Saitō Ichigo.
"If there are other diary holders, perhaps they would choose to contact through private ssages?" Thinking of this, Hoshino Ai really wanted to go to her social dia accounts and look through her private ssage history.
Of course she read her fan mail.
Previously, on every day off, she would take out so ti to read fan DMs, and pick so fans to reply to and thank.
It was just that because of the sudden appearance of the diary, she hadn't had ti for this matter these past few days.
Although transcribing and morizing Hamon had made her a little sleepy, when her life energy was stimulated, much of her sleepiness was dispelled. Now, thinking of this possibility, she couldn't sit still at all.
She opened a few of her commonly used social dia apps on her phone and quickly browsed through her private ssages.
The number of private ssages was much more than before, which was a happy thing.
Fortunately, her main target tonight was the private ssages from the last three days, so the workload would not be very large.
After just ten minutes or so, she had already found three suspicious comnts and private ssages.
First was a new follower nad "ssenger of the Evil King Eye". This user looked to be about her age, but their tone of voice always gave off an indescribably strange feeling.
The other party did not use private ssages, but directly comnted on her latest tweet:
"I am the ssenger of the Evil King Eye. I am willing to form a contract with thee. Pray tell, art thou, like , one chosen by fate?"
Under this comnt, this user also, in the sa tone, told her to leave the man who was closest to her recently, and bluntly said that this man who seed to be a source of light would bring her "the deepest misfortune".
This should be the so-called chuunibyou, right?
Hoshino Ai gently twirled a strand of hair in front of her forehead and made a judgnt.
However, she didn't dislike this kind of person.
After all, the reason she beca an idol in the first place was "to know the feeling of loving and being loved." Didn't this reason also sound very chuunibyou to others?
The other two were both private ssages. Although they were a bit vague when ntioning the diary, they both directly reminded her to be careful of Kamiki Hikaru.
Feeling the reminders and concern from these strangers she had never t, Hoshino Ai thought for a while, first deleted the reply from the "Evil King Eye", and then used the account of her other mobile phone to follow them.
Hoshino Ai frankly stated her identity in the private ssage, and then seriously told them that she would keep her distance from Kamiki Hikaru in the future.
This was also a not-so-obvious way of admitting that she also held a diary.
"If there's a chance in the future, I'll invite them to see my performance. But I also have to work a little harder and get on a bigger stage as soon as possible!" Hoshino Ai made this decision in her heart.
After that, she seriously read through the other fans' private ssages and comnts again, and only went to sleep peacefully when it was almost one in the morning.
...
In a place unknown to Miyauchi Hikage, because of the appearance of Hamon, many things were quietly changing.
But he himself didn't care about this at all.
He had spent the entire last night teaching his parents the breathing thod of Hamon.
Out of trust for their child, his parents didn't ask too many questions about this breathing thod. They just confird that Miyauchi Hikage hadn't been scamd by soone and didn't ask about its origin anymore.
And after knowing that this breathing thod could enhance their physique and preserve their youth and beauty, although they were still a little skeptical, it was just breathing after all, and it didn't require them to do anything else.
They would just treat it as a health-preserving thod and learn it for a few days.
And Miyauchi Hikage had unobtrusively inserted a trace of ripple energy that would actively guide their life energy into his parents' bodies. As long as they felt the changes in their bodies, they would naturally continue to practice.
The next day, he used the sa thod to teach the breathing thod to his eldest sister, Miyauchi Kazuho.
However, considering that his eldest sister was even more of a slacker than he was, after teaching her the breathing thod, Miyauchi Hikage used a thod similar to the one he used on Renge and made so small adjustnts to her body: for the next half a month, when his eldest sister was sleeping, she would slowly adjust her breathing rhythm to that of ripple breathing.
After doing all this, Miyauchi Hikage wiped his head.
"I've really taken great pains for this family."
"What did you do now?" It seed Miyauchi Hikari, who had just returned ho from outside and knew nothing, heard his voice and asked subconsciously.
Then, she didn't care about his answer and spoke first, "I just bought a popsicle. If you want to eat it, I'll give you one lick at most."
