Chapter 91: The ring’s miraculous way of borrowing fire has been increased.
What exactly can be found in the trash can?
Yamamoto Takeshi was really curious.
The little raccoon was holding the trash can, so he half-knelt beside her and leaned over to look. He looked left and right, but it was just an empty trash can that he seldom used, with only a trash bag inside. There was nothing special about it.
But Chaomu was extremely enthusiastic about this ordinary trash can, and his golden eyes were filled with deep affection.
Even when facing Yamamoto's belly, she never showed this kind of look.
The Guardian of Rain held his chin and looked at her profile, thinking to himself.
Her attention was completely focused on the trash can. Even though he was standing right next to her and even secretly reached out to poke her ear, she didn't even look at him. She just carefully put her paw into the trash can.
[You have unlocked the special scene item: Yamamoto Takeshi's trash can]
[Yamamoto Takeshi's Trash Can: I don't know what's in the trash can of this baseball-loving genius killer.]
Although Chaomu knew very well that Yamamoto Takeshi was a high-ranking member of the mafia, she was still a little dazed when she saw the introduction saying that he was a genius killer.
...After all, the other killers she knew didn't seem to be of this style...Gin, Shiro and the like were the type that gave off a strong sense of oppression at first glance. Although Teacher Reborn looked young, he was also very dangerous.
Even her daughter Moroboshi Mimi looks more like a killer than Yamamoto-kun, and Matsuda-kun also has a bit of a gangster vibe when he has a cold face.
As for Yamamoto Takeshi, she could only feel the sharp murderous aura from him when she saw him practicing sword yesterday morning.
Most of the time when Chao Mu knew him, he seemed to have a cheerful look on his face, like a male college student who had just graduated two years ago and loved sports, and would wander around with a baseball bag on his back during the holidays - for example, now, she turned around and saw him squatting beside her with his chin in his hand, his amber pupils close at hand, flashing with pure curiosity.
Morning light filtered through the gaps in the curtains, outlining the young man's sharp jawline. He half-knelt beside her, the curls of his black hair radiating youthful energy, his amber pupils illuminated by the light, clear of any cloud.
When he met her gaze, he smiled with his eyes crooked. The scar across his jaw lifted with his smile, blurring the sense of danger. "Why are you so concerned about my trash can? What do you want to get from it, Miss Mu?"
"I don't know either. It depends on what's inside." He asked seriously, and Chaomu answered seriously, "It also depends on what you are willing to let me do, Yamamoto-kun."
...For such a strange guy, what kind of wonderful skills will emerge from the trash can?
She looked at the card pool introduction again. The description of the special drops above was similar in length to that of other card pools.
[Special Limited Drop: SSR Skill Book "Shiyu Cangyanliu", SSR Item Rain Box
SR Items: Yamamoto's Baseball Bat, Yamamoto Takeshi Experience Card (5 min)...]
There's only one skill book among the drops, which should be Yamamoto Takeshi's kendo skill. The other item... The Rain Box should be the same as the melon from Jakudera, the box weapon that Shier mentioned.
While there's a chance of getting nothing, players still face a dilemma: which one to pick? While sword skills are certainly useful, it would also be great if the Rain Box could reveal a cute little animal to help in battle...
"Eh? A box? Is it possible to find a rain box in the trash can?" Yamamoto instinctively touched the bedside table to confirm that his boxes were still there. He became even more curious. "If you have to choose between the two, the rain box should be better for you, Miss Mu. After all, kendo may not be suitable for you. Mr. Reborn should have prepared martial arts techniques more suitable for you... But Kojiro and Jiro in the box are adorable no matter what, right?"
His words hit the nail on the head.
In the past, Chaomu, who lacked the means to improve her martial arts, would definitely choose the Shigure Sogan style. But after Reborn's teaching, she seems to be more inclined to use some fancy props.
"I remember Yamamoto mentioned before that Jiro seemed to be an Akita dog?" The more she thought about it, the more excited she felt. She rubbed her paws, "Then little Jiro is..."
Yamamoto squatted beside her, touching his head to hers and sharing, "It's a swift. Not only are they cute, they can also bring rainfall in a small area..."
He also took photos. In the photo album on his mobile phone, the Akita dog and the black-haired young man with a bright smile were face to face, and a swallow was standing lightly on the Akita dog's forehead. They looked very cute together.
A dog’s beauty is the owner’s glory.
The more Chaomu looked at Jiro, the more he felt that Jiro was even cuter than the Akita dog that Yamamoto turned into. With the swift standing on his forehead, the heart-pounding feeling was instantly doubled.
"Okay, I've decided on this one." She rubbed her paw in Yamamoto's palm, inhaling the NPC's scent before reaching for the trash can again. "Come out—Rain Box!"
Yamamoto had just put the Vongola box into his pocket, its outline still pressing against his waist. Logically speaking, there was no way Asami could have pulled a similar box from his empty trash can.
But Yamamoto Takeshi had a vague feeling that she should really be able to do it.
While this ability is unheard of and unseen, the world is full of strange things. Forget about Neon's variously skilled sorcerers. Naples is home to a group of mafias with strange abilities they call "stands." Perhaps Chaomu's abilities are similar to theirs, perhaps using a trash can as a medium to replicate others' abilities? What limitations might they face?
Although he had been mentally prepared, when he actually saw the raccoon beside him pull out its paw with a look of surprise, holding an identical box between its paws, Yamamoto Takeshi couldn't help but reveal a look of astonishment: "It really is..."
Chaomu was also surprised.
Although she knew that Yamamoto's favorability towards her should be quite high and that she would most likely get an SR card at the very least this time, she was still very surprised when an SSR item actually appeared - after all, her luck value was only D, and no matter how high her favorability was, her luck value would still greatly lag behind.
Otherwise, why couldn't she draw Hagiwara-kun and Matsuda-kun's SSR skill books? Was it because their favorability towards her wasn't high enough? That couldn't be possible.
This was the second SSR she had drawn since entering the game. The moment the colorful light flashed, the player had already decided to include Yamamoto in her list of permanent floating godfathers, and sit at the same table with Midorikawa Kei.
As for Mr. Reborn? He's probably the permanent godfather, so he doesn't have to rotate.
In a circle of colorful light, she solemnly caught the box, and the system's item prompt popped up at this time:
[Congratulations to the player for obtaining the SSR item: Rain Box (Player Version)]
[Rain Box (Player Version): The box weapon of Yamamoto Takeshi, the Vongola Rain Guardian. It can be opened with the rain-attributed Death Flame. Upon use, with the permission of its owner, it summons the Swift Kojiro and the Rain Dog Jiro to fight alongside the player. Each time the box weapon exists, the duration is calculated based on the amount of flame used. Once the flame is exhausted, the box weapon returns to its box.]
[It has been detected that the player currently does not possess the qualifications for the Rain-attributed Death Flame, and this is the first time obtaining this type of item. The system will give an additional item: Raccoon Ring (Elementary) x1]
When she saw that the Deathfire was needed to open the box, Chaomu's grin faded almost instantly. At the same time, the raccoon claw ring that appeared in her palm temporarily put her off complaining about the game's split gameplay and scamming players. The planner also managed to save her parents for the time being.
[Raccoon Ring (Primary): Can store a single attribute of Death Flame.]
[You have triggered the teaching task: Borrowing Fire]
[Borrow Fire: Negotiate with an NPC to "borrow fire" from them, and store the Deathly Fire in the Raccoon Ring.]
[Unlock the crafting recipe after completing the mission: Raccoon Ring (Intermediate) (Can store three types of Death Flame at the same time)]
It's really strange...the system actually unlocks such a useful item for free?
Chaomu was still thinking that the cool-sounding talent like Death Fire should be sold together with the super expensive gloves in the mall, but he didn't expect that there was such a thing as borrowing fire from others.
Judging from the situation, other guardians should also have this kind of box in their card pools. For example, the box in the Prison Temple can summon melons. Then she just needs to use the ring to find a few more people to borrow Death Fire of various attributes, and then she can summon cute creatures such as cats, dogs, clouds, hedgehogs, etc. at any time... and rummage through the trash can with her!
Thinking of such a bright future, the little raccoon tugged at the black-haired young man beside him, put his paw on his thigh, and leaned forward expectantly: "Yamamoto-kun——"
"Eh? Borrow a light?"
Yamamoto Takeshi blinked, stretched out his hand, and a cyan flame danced on the ring: "Sharing the flame with Miss Mu...? I don't mind, but how do you do it?"
While it seems there's technology for fire-storing boxes... Chaomu doesn't seem to have any such items nearby. Fire-storing boxes aren't very convenient or controllable, and they also require flames to open. Having to store flames specifically to open other boxes is somewhat impractical.
"Wait, let me look at the instructions."
This was Chaomu's first time using the Raccoon Ring, so naturally she had no idea how to use it. She flipped back to read the item details and was met with a full page of instructions.
...There are too many words, I want to skip them.
She scanned the entire text, capturing key words: The flame of death is the embodiment of life energy… Ignition requires awareness… High-tech extraction of flame requires physical contact… The media with the highest conversion rate and the most vigorous vitality are blood and essence…
……ah? ? ?
"Miss Mu?"
Because the raccoon's expression was too shocked, Yamamoto had already cast a concerned look at him: "Is there anything wrong?"
“…No, it’s nothing…right…”
Chaomu looked up at his sunny, defenseless face, then looked down at the row of OO and XX instructions on the manual... Skipping from the beginning to the end, seeing a strange word that shouldn't be there, even a seasoned player's pupils trembled for a moment, retreating to the system interface, and repeatedly confirming that he wasn't playing some weird adult game or Type-Moon game...
She was like, "Why does this setting sound so familiar? Doesn't this replenish mana? Is Death Flame such a bad setting? Isn't that right? What kind of life? Isn't enlightenment supposed to be very exciting?"
If you ask for "borrowing a light" and the first thing you say is "Please give me Yamamoto-kun's O liquid, the more the better", this development is a bit too bad no matter how you think about it!
After making sure that he was indeed playing King of the Trash Can and not Trash Cup War, Chaomu switched back and carefully read the instructions, then breathed a sigh of relief: Oh, I read it wrong, the instructions at the end were about a more unorthodox usage, where one could use the human body to store fire directly without using the ring as a medium, which would require those detailed physical contacts that could not pass the review.
Chaomu is a serious raccoon and has not yet unlocked this wonderful branch skill. If he just wants to use the ring to borrow fire, he only needs to read the introduction on the previous page.
"It doesn't require any strange methods...it's quite simple." She placed her hand on Yamamoto's knee, stood on tiptoe, and handed the ring inlaid with silver raccoon paws to him. "Yamamoto-kun, just carry this ring with you for a while and then return it to me. If it's not convenient to hold it in your hand, you can wear it on a chain around your neck."
After all, Yamamoto is a swordsman. If he has to hold a sword, it would be inconvenient to wear an extra ring - and she saw that he already had two rings on his hands, probably for combat, and wearing another one didn't seem good-looking.
Yamamoto Takeshi himself didn't mind. After all, due to the needs of combat, he had long been accustomed to wearing a string of rings on his hands.
But because of this, it seems easy to be confused with other ordinary rings when worn on the hand.
"Let's hang it around my neck." He made the decision almost immediately and scooped up the little raccoon in his arms. "Let's find a silver chain or something... Speaking of which, Miss Mu, this is your first time in Sicily, right? Do you want to go shopping together?"
