Hmm...which one should I choose?
Yuzuru rolled over comfortably on his master's soft lap, like a little animal longing for warmth, burying his face deep into the kimono fabric that carried a faint tea scent, his nose surrounded by a comforting aroma.
Chibo Jinghua took it as her disciple being sleepy and acting coquettishly, and continued to gently comb his black hair with her fingers, letting him stay on her lap like a child.
The first enhancement should definitely be passed over.
He doesn't have a high need for this kind of non-powerful combat enhancement right now; his preferred items are usually those that bring fun and interest.
So, number two isn't bad either, since it has built-in X-ray vision.
However, it's still a little bit inferior to a shrinking light.
This thing... is so interesting! It's incredibly practical and fun! Just think about it:
For example, shrinking large items makes them easier to store or transport.
Or shrink the enemy down to the size of a bean, then stomp on them... cough, let's be civilized, and easily subdue them.
And "infiltrating" is incredibly convenient.
Most importantly... Hanyu Nan's gaze involuntarily swept over the falling cherry blossoms around him, the playful Yingying and Walking Grass in the distance, and finally... extremely discreetly and quickly swept over the full curves of his master's elegant kimono.
An audacious (and reckless) thought uncontrollably popped into my head: what if I could scale down some of Master's... oh no! I mean, some of those "magnificent landscapes" and observe them up close... (the scenery that a certain young lady longs for but can't have, perhaps...?)
"hiss......"
He quickly nipped this extremely dangerous idea in the bud.
However, it's absolutely the ultimate tool for teasing the little birds, walking grass, or for causing trouble!
"System..." Yu Shengnan thought to himself, "Your third option is exactly what I'm interested in."
The system remained silent as always.
Without much hesitation, Yuzuru made his decision.
He needs something... something that can bring a "surprise".
Lightsabers are too straightforward, and flashing fluorescent lights aren't exciting enough. Only shrinking lights are full of endless possibilities and... the potential for pranks.
"I've chosen you! System, I'll pick number three!"
"Ding! Enhancement successful!"
As the system notification faded, the dusty old flashlight in the storage room was silently enveloped in a soft glow.
As the light faded, its shape became more rounded and smooth, and the material changed to a technologically advanced silver-white. An adjustment knob and two indicator lights were added to the body (green for shrinking, red for restoring/temporary), and an inconspicuous "Doraemon" head was affixed to the bottom of the handle.
"Um......"
Having made his choice, Yuzuru hummed contentedly, finding a more comfortable position on his master's warm lap, a subtle, slightly mischievous smile playing on his lips.
I've got my new "toy".
Who should I contact...? Hmm, what should I contact to test the effectiveness?
Just as he was thinking of an idea, he suddenly felt a cool sensation on the tip of his nose. Ikeba Shizuka had broken off a cherry blossom branch at some point and was gently brushing the petals against his face: "Get up when you wake up, your legs are numb."
"Master~ just lie down for five more minutes~"
Yuzuru playfully hugged the beautiful woman's waist, taking the opportunity to bury his face in her clothes and take a deep breath. "I dreamt that you turned into Thumbelina!"
"Smack!"
I got hit on the forehead again, though not very hard.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Ikeba Shizuka glared at him.
Yu Shengnan chuckled, and with a thought, the shrinking lamp in the storage room appeared in his hand: "Master, do you believe that there are gadgets in this world that can shrink people?"
"What kind of trick are they up to now?"
"No way!"
Yuzuru shook the shrinking lamp in his hand. "I'm just curious... what would Master look like if he were the size of a thumb?"
"Then I am also your master."
Chibo Jinghua raised her eyebrows slightly, ignoring his whimsical ideas, and continued to focus on the tea ceremony, skillfully handling the tea utensils in her hands, as if her disciple's words were just a breeze that would blow away and disappear.
Upon hearing this, Yuzuru quietly switched the knob to "temporary shrink" mode, and then—
"Whoosh!"
A beam of green light shone precisely on Ikeba Shizuka.
"Huh?"
Before Shizuka Ikebab could even let out a soft cry, her entire body shrank rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye—her kimono, folding fan, hairpin, and all her personal belongings shrank proportionally.
In the blink of an eye, the originally elegant and dignified beautiful woman had been transformed into a "delicate figurine" version that was only fifteen centimeters tall, and was now sitting on Yuzuru Nanami's lap.
A hint of surprise lingered on her delicate face, and a trace of panic flickered in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure. Her petite and exquisite appearance contrasted sharply with her usual dignified and elegant demeanor.
"So cute!"
Yu Shengnan looked at his master, who was the size of his palm, with surprise and delight.
A 1:1 replica of a real person, this is what a figure should be like!
Ikeba Shizuka was clearly taken aback by this sudden turn of events. When she stood up, her delicate wooden clogs sank into the folds of Hanyu Nan's jeans, and she almost tripped.
The light purple kimono, originally loose and elegant, still draped her petite figure gracefully. However, the once wide sash now looked like a delicate ribbon, encircling her slender waist and adding to her charm.
"Xiao, Nan!" Chi Bo Jinghua looked up, her voice becoming soft due to her shrunken body, but her authority remained undiminished. "What's going on?"
Yuzuru carefully cupped her in his hands with two fingers, feigning innocence as he admired his miniature master's uniquely adorable appearance. He then pretended to say, "Master, can I say this was just an accident...?"
From this distance, he could clearly see every detail of his miniature master—his cheeks slightly flushed with anger, his chest rising and falling with his breath, and those eyes that remained beautiful even in their smaller size.
The neckline of the kimono also opened slightly with the movement, revealing the delicate lines of the collarbone.
"Hurry up and turn me back!"
Ikenami Shizuka raised her folding fan, but because it was too small, tapping it on Hanyu Kusunoki's fingers felt like being brushed by a feather.
"Uh, this..."
Yuzuru scratched his head, "The restore function needs to be charged..."
He hasn't had enough fun yet, so how could he possibly recreate it? Anyway, he'd inevitably get a scolding from his master afterward, so he might as well have a good time all at once.
Ikeba Shizuka narrowed her eyes: "How long?"
"About... an hour?"
Feeling guilty, Yuzuru shortened the time by half.
