NEET Receives a Dating Sim Game Leveling System

Seiji decided to go visit the White Sakura Goddess.

Although it was impossible to go out right now, he didn’t want to just wait around while doing nothing. Seiji wanted to use Visualization to visit the White Sakura Goddess and ask her about the current situation.

He told this to Shika and the others before entering his dojo and beginning to Visualize in front of the Spirit Image.

He soon entered a state of Visualization.

Under a cherry blossom tree, Seiji Kamijou opened up his paper fan to reveal the words “The world is full of suffering.”

He quietly waited for a moment. Then, a breeze started blowing through all the cherry blossoms.

“Your companions are all now in a deep sleep. They’ll be alright for the time being with my protection,” a young-sounding female voice spoke to him.

“Thank you,” Seiji said sincerely. He then asked, “Everyone else… how is everyone in the city?”

“Many, many people are now in a deep sleep.”

“Are you able to do anything?”

“No…”

The goddess was expressing that she didn’t have the power to protect everyone.

Seiji understood how it was. If she had the power to protect everyone, then this current incident wouldn’t have happened.

“The me in the real world needs assistance.”

“I can help you, but that will use up some of your Mana in the real world.”

“That’s fine, I’ll accept that.” Seiji paused for a moment. “Do you have any recommendations on dealing with the Evil White Sakura Goddess?”

Silence lasted several seconds.

“She’s really strong…” The female voice sighed.

This basically meant that there was no special way to deal with the Evil White Sakura Goddess.

Or, maybe there was a method, but she was unwilling to say it.

The Evil White Sakura Goddess was still her counterpart, basically the equivalent of a sibling. Even if they had different personalities or natures, they were still the same kind.

Seiji had no intention of making things difficult for the White Sakura Goddess. He knew that she was already undertaking risk and pressure just by helping him.

After sincerely thanking her once more, Seiji left the Visualization world.

When he returned to the Spirit House dojo, Seiji felt a warmth in his right hand. He saw that his hand was now glowing with a white mystical rune on his palm.

The next instant, he had a realization about what ability he’d just received—”invisibility.”

This “invisibility” wasn’t true invisibility as commonly understood. Rather, it was a special type of invisibility that could conceal Seiji from the Evil White Sakura Goddess’s senses.

Basically, this was a special anti-god invisibility!

This ability would allow him to walk around in the area under the Evil White Sakura Goddess’s control much more safely.

This familiar scenario caused Seiji to recall how he had obtained a power from Risa Kobayakawa during the Bloodwine Ritual tournament…

‘Once again, I’ve obtained the holy sword required to defeat the demon king. I am the hero after all!’

Just joking.

This ability would be unable to defeat the Evil Goddess, unlike the previous ability. This invisibility could only be used for self-protection. Not only that—there would be a constant drain on his Mana to maintain this invisibility, which meant that there would be a time limit.

Seiji could use this ability to rescue all his friends and bring them into his Spirit House. However, he wouldn’t be able to save everyone in the city.

The White Sakura Goddess had said that many people were in a “deep sleep.” This obviously wasn’t death, so all the people were still living. But, if too much time passed, they would still die!

Just how many people had fallen victim and entered this deep sleep? Seiji didn’t dare to imagine.

He hadn’t personally seen how large an area was affected. But, he could imagine that the number of victims was far more than three or four thousand…

If this incident wasn’t resolved within the time that everyone was still alive, then this would become an incident with a tremendous number of deaths! It would be on the scale of a powerful earthquake, nuclear explosion, or meteor strike… The mystical society wouldn’t be able to cover this up by simply saying that it was a “terrorist attack!”

Seiji felt a chill just from imagining the worst outcome possible.

He didn’t know why things had suddenly become like this.

Nor did he know if his older sister Yui was alright or not.

Was she fighting somewhere? How many people were out there fighting against the Evil White Sakura Goddess? Would it be possible to resolve this incident…? He didn’t know anything!

He needed more information.

Even if he loaded back in time, he wouldn’t be able to do anything without knowing more first.

In the end, Seiji decided to wait for his Spirit House door to finish leveling up so that he could rescue all his companions and bring them here before thinking about his next move.

Seiji returned to the living room of his Spirit House.

As Shika and the others all looked at him, he told them about his conversation with the White Sakura Goddess and the new power he just obtained.

“After I can go out, I’ll immediately go to save Natsuya and the others. You all should remain here. I should be fine thanks to the invisibility power that the White Sakura Goddess gave me… and if anything happens, I’ll summon you all to help me. After I rescue everyone and bring them here, we can all think together on what to do next.”

Everyone remained silent for a while after Seiji said this.

“You have to be careful, Brother,” Shika said while looking directly at his face.

She really wanted to be out there together with her adopted brother. However, there was a cost to his using that power of invisibility against the god. She knew that taking her would only be a burden.

“Of course I will be,” Seiji responded with a smile.

“Seiji onii-chan, go go!” Reo cheered him on.

Seiji patted the little girl on the head.

Chiaki had a dark expression. Mika was looking at her in worry.

“Chiaki… the incident will be resolved. Your father will also be alright…”

“Thank you, Mika.” Chiaki forced herself to smile for the sake of her best friend who was so worried about her.

Something flashed in Seiji’s eyes as he looked at Chiaki.

“This will absolutely be resolved!” Seiji stated in an adamant tone. “Your father will be fine. I guarantee it!”

“Seiji…”

Chiaki looked at her boyfriend.

Although logically she knew that his guarantee was a promise that was impossible to keep for certain as there was no guarantee in reality, the way he said it with such confidence, willpower, and resolution struck her deep in her heart.

‘Honestly… Just how much more can I love him?’

Chiaki’s eyes became wet and she raised her hands to wipe them.

“I believe you.” This time, she smiled from the bottom of her heart.

“Oh my…” Nozomi blinked upon seeing this. She then looked over at her own daughter.

Mika: “…”

…

Finally, the door of the Spirit House finished leveling up.

Seiji was long prepared for this. He immediately stood up and activated the anti-god invisibility power!

His right hand instantly started glowing with a gentle white light that enveloped him entirely like flowing water would.

His Mana also began to decrease at a slow but steady rate.

“I’m going out now.”

After saying that to all the women, Seiji stepped outside back into the real world.

The moment that he returned to reality, he felt a deep chill. Everything around him was as dark as if he was at the bottom of an ocean.

Seiji cast [Astral Vision] and saw that white mist was everywhere as far as he could see.

If it wasn’t for the White Sakura Goddess’s protection, being enveloped by all this white mist would surely be terrible for him.

It would be difficult to resist the white mist even with personal barriers. Not only that—if the Evil White Sakura Goddess noticed him, it was likely that he would receive even more dangerous attacks.

This all felt similar to the Bloodwine Ritual tournament incident… And judging by power level, the Evil White Sakura Goddess was far more powerful than that Kanzaki person.

Luckily, Seiji had a god’s protection.

Seiji swiftly took out his equipment from his room and put it on. He also went to Shika’s room, took out all her equipment, and stored it in his Spirit House warehouse. He also took this opportunity to gather some resources that might be useful.

After that, Seiji left his apartment, and noticed that a gigantic bright red cherry blossom tree was an indeterminable distance from him!

This tree was grand and majestic, with its crown covering the skies, and its flowers replacing the stars… it was truly a breathtaking sight.

Although this tree had brought a devastating calamity, although it was a terrifying existence, Seiji had to admit that this tree was indeed truly beautiful.

Right now, it wasn’t sprinkling flower petals. He figured that if cherry blossoms fell from it and covered the entire sky, it would surely be amazingly beautiful and stunning.

Seiji admired the tree’s beauty for only a second before swiftly beginning to take action.
