...
And soon, that voice that I was so eager to hear, resounded in my ears.
[Congratulations to the host for completing mission Nº 3 and for that, you get the following rewards: Unbreakable Love (Master), System Update to Version 1.1, Water Control (Basic)!
Warning, two peculiarities have been found to be completely the same, proceeding to fuse them!]
Suddenly, I started to feel the same euphoria as last time, but this time it was stronger and for a moment, I felt that I could conquer the world by myself, that no one could stop me, that I am the best and no one can defeat me or prevent me from achieving my goals. But soon, that feeling ceased and I returned to normal thoughts with no desire to conquest nothing.
"Ufff... perfect. Now I feel much stronger" – I said with a smile.
[I'm glad you feel stronger, host. But unfortunately I'll have to sit idle for more than 12 hours]
"Is it because of the update?" – I asked curiously.
[Indeed]
"What new features will you get after upgrading?" – I asked again.
[I have no idea, we'll have to wait until 12 hours from now. But before of that...]
"What's wrong?" – I said in a curious tone.
[I'll give you your the next missions. You know, so you can start thinking about how to complete them.]
"Oh, that's a good idea" – I nodded.
So, even if the system is absent, I will be able to think about how to complete my new missions.
[Perfect, I'm glad for your excitement. Here are your next quests:
Mission Nº4:
Objective: Make Emma fall in love with you and kiss you.
Reward: Fire Immunity (Intermediate), Fury (Basic)
Mission No. 5:
Objective: Make Olive fall in love with you and kiss you.
Reward: Wind Control (Intermediate), Water Control (Intermediate)
Mission No. 6:

Reward: Super Armor (Intermediate), Heavy Strike (Basic)

Objective: Make Fiona fall in love with you and kiss you.
Rewards: Super Regeneration (Intermediate), Sincerity (Intermediate)
Mission No. 8:

And before you are able to ask me for explanations, I will give you a brief description of those peculiarities that you have not been able to understand:

Fire Immunity (Intermediate): Decreases the power of fire attacks by 60%. You will now take much less damage if you are damaged by fire.

"I don't have words. They are really great peculiarities and I like each and every one of them. But there's a little problem" – I said.
[Mmm, I don't see any problem]
"Well, there is one. There is definitely one" – I nodded.
[Can you tell me which one? Seriously, I don't see any problem]
"Well, it's easy, Claire is 12 years old! How am I going to do something like that with a 12-year-old girl? It is immoral!" – I exclaimed.
I'm not... What would the Japanese call it... Lolicon? Yes, that, I'm not a lolicon.
[Claire isn't 12 for starters]
"I know, but her mentality is that of a 12-year-old girl. So it's basically the same" - I said.
It's almost the same. What does it matter if she had 60 years or more, but her mindset doesn't surpass that of a 12-year-old girl? I think it's just as immoral.
[And second. What's wrong with her falling in love with you and kissing you? I mean, it's not that the objective of the mission is to have sex with her or something like that]
Thinking about it, it's just a kiss. That doesn't hurt anyone and if she is in love with me... I guess it's not immoral either. After all, it's just a feeling.
"Certainly, looking at it from that perspective, it doesn't seem as immoral as I first thought" - I nodded.
[That's right, it's nothing immoral. It's just a kiss and making her fall in love with you. What does that have to do with being a lolicon? It would be another thing if you needed to have sex with her. In that case, we could argue about how immoral it is]
*Note: This part is very important for the future of this fic. As you can see I decided to include Claire in the harem. That doesn't hurt anyone, but the problem is, since I decided that this fic will have sex, then it does become a problem. That's why I'm coming to you. Do you want Claire to keep her current appearance or do you want me to find a way to make her body grow? If you choose the latter option, sex with Claire would be much later than with the other girls.
For those who are reading this fic and do not like to comment for any reason. This is your moment, comment on what you want because then there will be no turning back. Do you want Claire to stay as she is and continue with the sexual act or would you rather wait for me to think an idea of growing her body?
As sex is still quite far away, you have time to decide. I will call again on this issue when the sex chapters are close. So decide, please. Then I don't want to complain about this issue as I'm giving you all the choice. This message is not only for the readers of patreon, but also for the webnovel readers, please decide. Otherwise, I will be forced to decide for myself.
And for those who ask. No, I have no qualms when writing these kinds of scenes. But that doesn't mean I'm going to choose the option of leaving her as a girl. In fact, my plan is different.
"Ehem, yes, that makes sense. Okay, I guess if it's just a kiss I don't care" – I nodded.
It's just a kiss, nothing more. It's nothing immoral.
[Perfect and having said that, I leave you with your internal reflections. I will go to be updated]
"Ok, I'll wait for you" – I nodded.
Anyway, most of the 12 hours will be spent sleeping, so I won't be long without this system.
[Please keep in mind that you will not be able to contact me and all system functions will be disabled during the update. Although you will be able to use your peculiarities without problems]
"Perfect, see you later" – I nodded.
But I wanted to ask, What functions? Literally the only thing I can do is see an extremely simple status and missions. This system doesn't have any other extra functions that could be useful to me, so even if it's not there, honestly it doesn't hurt me at all.
But as I thought, it would be too cruel to say that. After all, thanks to the system I am getting stronger little by little and it would be very ungrateful of me to say such offensive words, especially against someone who tries to help me.
[See you tomorrow]
After saying those words, he was completely silent, everything was completely silent.
The generators had ceased because it was already after 10 p.m. and there was a deathly silence. You could hear absolutely nothing and I could only lighten the room slightly with the candles I mentioned earlier.
"It really feels like time traveling..." – I sighed.
That said, I turned off my phone to save battery, put on very warm pajamas, covered myself with the blanket and closed my eyes.
"I hope tomorrow is a great day" – I said as I slowly fell asleep.
But I was completely sure that tomorrow would be a great day. After all, I have now come into contact with an exciting world, full of children with peculiarities. A world that I have longed for years and that I always wanted to be a part of. It's obvious that I was going to have a good time and not only tomorrow, I'll enjoy every day as if I were a child who has been bought his favorite candy. This has only just begun...
…
In the morning.
I woke up a little tired from having stayed up a little late.
Due to the excitement, it took me a couple of hours to fall completely asleep, so today I had a hard time even opening my eyes. But due to the excitement of visiting the orphanage again, of seeing my new friends and having a good time with them, it made me open my eyes faster than lightning.
With that said and after dressing appropriately (in clothes from this century), I went down to the "dining room" where my father was waiting for me at the same table as the day before.
"Good morning, Jacob. I have already ordered breakfast, It will be here shortly" – my father said.
"Good morning, dad and thank you" – I said.
"Did you talk to Doctor Golan yesterday?" - my father asked.
"You didn't take a minute to ask... But yes, I talked to him yesterday and he said he was fine and even getting better" – I said.
I lied, but I had no choice. I just hope that Doctor Golan doesn't call to deny my theory.
"Really?" - my father asked somewhat skeptically.
"Yes, completely" – I nodded.
"Well, I believe you for now. By the way, what are you planning to do today?" – my father asked curiously.
I suppose he expected me to say something like: "I'm going to explore the old house again," but I was already prepared for that question.
"Since I have already explored the entire orphanage, I have decided to stop exploring it and go out with my new friends" – I replied.
"Really? Well, if so, I'm glad. I was worried that you would go back to that place. But if you're going out with your new friends... then that's better" – my father said.
My lie seemed to have had an effect and the expression on my father's face changed radically, now he seemed even happier than before.
"By the way, I don't forget that you promised me. You have to introduce me to those new friends of yours" – my father said.
Again that issue. Could you stop being so insistent?
"Of course. I'll introduce them to you one of these days" – I nodded.
I hope I can drag it out for at least a couple of weeks. Then, I'll come up with anything.
In two weeks I'd like to leave, but I'd rather wait until the whole month passes. The reason? It's because I want my father not to have the opportunity to look for me and have to leave. I know perfectly well that I am being cruel. There is no need for you to think about it, but that is my dream, to belong to an exciting world and I will not let it go for anything. Even if I have to abandon my family for it.
Although not everything is as bad as it seems. Because since I belong to the present, I age normally and I will be able to go in and out of the loops without worrying about turning to dust for at least for several years. So in the future I can go visit them to tell them that I am fine and not to worry about me. But I will do it in a few years, when they do not have the power to send me to a mad house against my will.
And after a "nutritious" and "pleasant" breakfast, we both went to do our daily tasks. In my case, go with the peculiar ones and in my father's, continue watching birds.
