"153 points…Also, why can't I open the shop?" Arkhen asked as he walked out of the mansion while checking out his system. After walking out, he removed his force-field around the mansion and called Mark to pick him up.

[My lord, the shop is a special function. You can only open it when you obtain a shopping ticket from quests. The next main quest and a side quest will unlock at 7 AM.]

'Ah, got it.'

…

After Mark and Arkhen returned home safe and sound, only then did Isabella and others sigh a relief and went to sleep. The party they planned at the noon was also canceled because of the incident.

Once Arkhen entered his room and locked it, he decided to finish his unfinished matter.

'Velshi, let's open the Mystery box first,' Arkhen said.

[Opening the grade-1 Mystery box…]

[Congratulations, you have acquired a D-rank skill, Ice mist]

'Huh? D-rank skill sounds weak.'

[My lord, should I convert the skill into a skill stone? You can then give the skill stone to someone so they can learn the skill. Even though it is a D-rank skill, it can still be useful for normal people. They can use it by consuming their stamina]

'Interesting. Well, let me see the skill description first,' Arkhen said before Velshi showed the skill description to Arkhen in a panel.

.

<Ice Mist>

-Effect: Release icy mist from your mouth that can slow targets and freeze them after they are covered in the icy mist for three seconds.

.

'Not bad, but I don't need it. Yep, convert it into a skill stone,' Arkhen said as he thought of a good way to use this skill.

Afterward, Arkhen opened the roulette since he still had 7 spins.

[My lord. I would suggest that you save these 7 spins for now and only use one every several days or when you are in a pinch.]

'Hmm…alright. I'll take your advice,' Arkhen nodded before he closed the system interface and went to sleep.

…

At 6 AM, Arkhen heard a knocking sound on his door and opened his eyes.

"Ah, it was a good sleep," Arkhen said with a smile as he sat up on the bed and stretched his arms.

"Young master Arkhen, please get ready in thirty minutes because the pick-up ride from Prime-Star academy will arrive somewhere around 7."

"Alright, I'll be downstairs before thirty minutes," Arkhen said in response before he got off the bed and went to take a shower.

Once he finished getting ready, he went downstairs and saw another boy along with Daniel talking with Zoe and Evelyn. Mark, Isabella, Grace, and John were at the dining table and having breakfast while the four kids were talking to each other on the couches.

"Hey, Arkhan is here. Nolan, now you can't tease me or my brother will beat you up," Zoe said with a grin.

"Hi, Arkhen. Nice to meet you," Nolan said with a smile and walked towards Arkhen for a handshake. He had a gentle face and blue eyes and maroon-brownish hair. "I heard a lot about you despite just arriving here thirty minutes ago, haha."

"Hi," Arkhen nodded with a plain smile and shook his hands. He also looked at Nolan's status and was surprised.

.

|Nolan|

-Stamina: 12 (1200/1200)

-Strength: 12

-Agility: 13

-Charm: 9

-EP: 290

—> Mana: (1050/1050)

.

"It seems that you are already a superhuman," Arkhen said with a smile.

"What?!"

This news startled Zoe and others.

Nolan narrowed his eyes and cursed inside. 'Damn, this bastard exposed me. But how did he know in the first place?'

"Is that true?" Daniel asked.

Nolan wryly smiled and nodded. "I just recently awakened mana."

[He is lying. Recently awakened would have 100 EP at best]

"Dad! Nolan became a superhuman, but he was hiding it," Evelyn shouted towards the folks having breakfast at the dining table.

Mark and others were startled after hearing that.

"Stop it, Eve. I was not hiding but was going to tell the news after uncle and everyone finished their breakfast," Nolan said with a weak smile.

"I'll go have breakfast," Arkhen said before he walked towards the dining hall.

'By the way, why I don't have any numbers in EP?' Arkhen asked while walking.

[My lord, you have acquired the superpower that awakened you and unlocked Energy power stat but it was not a full awakening. Once you create a Primal energy core inside your body, you can finally awaken and your EP will be displayed. But your default EP is already 1000, just not displayed]

'I see, so when am I going to create this primal energy core?' Arkhen asked as he finally sat down at the table and greeted everyone.

[You can create it after looking at today's side quest. Since you have yet to create it, the side quest will be about creating your core and you can also earn some rewards. That's why I didn't tell you about the core creation]

'I see…'

Mark asked about what Evelyn just said and, in response, he nodded. "Nolan said he indeed awakened just recently."

"Haha, that's good news," John said with a laugh. "We finally have our first superhuman member."

"Dear, Arkhan is also a member," Grace said as she rolled her eyes at her husband.

"Ah, sorry. I-I didn't mean it like that," John wryly smiled as he looked at Mark and Isabella. They both were slightly dissatisfied.

"Sorry, Arkhen," John also apologized to Arkhen with a rueful smile.

"It's fine. I just arrived here two days ago," Arkhen said with a smile before he glanced at Grace for a second.

Grace was also a beautiful, solid milf just half a point below Isabella. She had supple boobs of probably E or F cup, long silky natural blond hair, and smooth white skin with a hint of red due to blood. A healthy female to boot-y.

'Velshi, use some reality points and make her conscious about me. Don't be direct, but let her think about me occasionally.'

[My lord, I can use 3 reality points every day for seven days to make her conscious about you, then you can try to make your move on her]

'Alright,' Arkhen said internally before he adopted a curious expression. "By the way, I know about father's business now, but what about Mom and aunt Grace?"

"We are board members and production managers of our own cosmetic company," Grace said with a smile. "You should come to visit us later."

"Yep. How about you visit us after returning from the academy this evening?" Isabella said.

"Haha, I was going to take him to my office, but that's fine. You two can have him first," Mark said with a laugh.

After eating breakfast, everyone gathered in the hall and talked about Nolan's awakening.

"Nolan. Since you awakened mana, then can you show us some magic spells?" Zoe asked curiously.

"I don't have any magic spell yet, but I can show you the mana," Nolan said with a wry smile as he stretched his hand forward and released mana, which was a bunch of dreamy blue motes hovering over his palm.

[He is again lying. I can't check his full status unless I spend reality points, but he definitely has a magic spell]

'Meh, I don't want to expose him now. But if he gets some weird idea about me, Zoe, or Evelyn, he is going to get it,' Arkhen said in his head coldly. He already considered Zoe and Evelyn as his, so if someone else dared to have ideas about them…

*Paw paw!*

Suddenly, everyone heard a bus horn outside of their mansion.
