[~2400 Words]
Within the vehicle, Fujiwara Takuya fixed his gaze upon Kudo Yukiko with an intensity that bordered on predatory.
He was confident that his eyes, honed to be weapons, could easily subdue her.
Kudo Yukiko found herself blushing furiously under his unwavering scrutiny.
Shame flooded her; such a handsome man existed in the world, and he was looking at *her* as if she were a tempting delicacy.
It was both exhilarating and embarrassing.
Takuya, noticing her reaction, couldn't help but be taken aback.
He found himself wondering if perhaps his gaze had been too intense.
Yukiko seemed transfixed, almost drooling.
He chuckled inwardly; she truly behaved like a captivated kitten.
Yukiko, realizing the awkwardness of her reaction, quickly attempted to compose herself.
She discreetly wiped the corner of her mouth from her sudden lapse in composure.
It was all Takuya's fault; his presence was unnerving and disorienting.
"What do you intend to do?" she asked, attempting to regain a semblance of control. "You are behaving like a hooligan! If I call the police, you will be arrested immediately."
Of course, her threat was hollow; who would believe her against him?
She knew if he were incarcerated, it might jeopardize their future collaborations.
After all, she had been assigned the mission to obtain ancient scriptures, and his cooperation was essential.
No matter how she felt about it, finishing the system's tasks was essential; failing to do so could result in severe repercussions.
Besides, she had initiated the contact when she took his hand that time, and despite her initial bravado, she couldn't deny Takuya held the upper hand.
"Are you sure you want to involve the police?" he countered calmly, producing a camera from his bag. "I was recording our interaction, and I have footage of you placing your hand on my arm. You initiated this encounter, so I could easily portray you as the aggressor."
Takuya had brought the camera along for documentation purposes, intending to capture scenic views and their date with Kisaki Eri.
However, he now saw an opportunity to leverage it against her.
If these images were released, it would be a scandal, potentially leading to repercussions for Kudo Shinichi and Kudo Yusaku.
He skillfully activated the recording and displayed the footage to Yukiko.
Her face drained of color as she watched herself grab his hand and lead him on, unaware of being filmed.
It was over.
Her luck had run out.
She realized Takuya now held a powerful weapon against her, capable of tarnishing her reputation and potentially ruining her life.
"Madam Yukiko," he said, relishing her discomposure, "Let's call it a day. I will keep this recording for safekeeping. If you are truly interested in me, perhaps consider taking the initiative next time."
He added with mock concern, "Remember to drink enough water regularly; it seems like you lost quite a bit of water today."
Takuya tucked the camera away, ensuring it remained hidden from prying eyes.
Yukiko seethed with fury as he left, vowing to destroy the evidence and reclaim control over the situation.
Moments later, they arrived at the Red Apple Theater, where Kudo Shinichi waited impatiently.
"Mom, why did you arrive so late?" he questioned, frustrated by her tardiness.
"I encountered a minor delay," Kudo Yukiko replied coolly, refusing to say the truth about her encounter with Takuya.
She felt it was too risky to reveal their private encounter, especially not to her son.
Takuya remained silent, understanding the implications of divulging any details.
The best course of action was discretion. This secret would remain between them, allowing them to forge a more complex and potentially powerful alliance.
He followed Eri into the theater, finding solace in their unspoken bond.
He was secretly with her, despite the complexities of their shared relationships as she would soon have his child.
[Ding! Host, there is an unclaimed system reward from Kisaki Eri´s System. Would you like to claim it?]
Fujiwara Takuya remained outwardly calm, but internally he was connecting with his own system.
He knew about these rewards; they were a part of his ongoing journey.
He recalled giving Kisaki Eri a task long back, The completion deadline had been two months ago, and as a reward for her success, he was now eligible to claim a double reward for himself.
This was significant; previously Miyano Akemi had acquired Wing Chun, which he then doubled into the formidable Lightning Thunder Fist, transforming her into a superhuman.
However, even at that level of power, she wasn't comparable to Kyogoku Makoto, who possessed an almost terrifying mastery over his abilities.
[Claim the reward], Fujiwara Takuya thought silently.
[Congratulations, host! The Lightning Thunder Fist has successfully advanced to Level 2 and can now generate 8 milliamperes of current with a paralyzing effect.]
[Congratulations, host! Your physical capabilities have been further enhanced, and your mana reserves have increased by ten points.]
These rewards were substantial; they would undoubtedly increase his strength.
He was on the path to becoming the most powerful extraordinary individual in this world.
One thought crossed his mind: he needed a child with Koizumi Akako.
That would make him a magician! Who wouldn't want magical abilities?
He resolved to focus on that goal, knowing that any benefit for Akako was intrinsically linked to magic and his own aspirations.
**Host:** Fujiwara Takuya
**Occupation:** Police Officer (Inspector)
**Physical Fitness:** 13 (Human Limit: 10)
**Mental Strength:** 13 (Human Limit: 10)
**Mana:** 20
**Martial Arts:** Lightning Thunder Fist (Level 2)
**Special Abilities:** God-level Driving Skills, Spider Sense
**Special Identities:** Gun King, Dragon Chef, Demon King (Shadow Corps)
**Props:** Sherlock Holmes Reasoning Hat, Unlimited Arsenal
Takuya was pleased with his newly upgraded attributes. He felt stronger than ever before.
It was unfortunate that Miyano Akemi had completed numerous tasks previously, but the rewards were primarily material and offered little substantial benefit.
Fortunately, the current rewards proved sufficient.
Moreover, he now possessed an additional system, enabling him to immediately address Kudo Yukiko and fulfill his physical desires concerning her.
Takuya felt a surge of contentment. Upon Eri's childbirth, another significant reward awaited: Eri's system reward for having multiple children. His family-oriented system had been prepped in advance.
Alternatively, he could capitalize on this opportunity to secure Kudo Yukiko's allegiance and persuade her to bear him a child, thereby earning yet another reward.
Takuya secretly observed Kudo Yukiko. As he neared his goal of winning over Yukiko, he felt compelled to ensure she took responsibility, and and he must have two children before his departure.
If conceiving twins proved challenging, then at least one child would suffice.
The prospect of influencing someone else's wife to bear his offspring filled Takuya with excitement. Today truly was an exceptional day.
Yukiko shuddered, a sense of unease washing over her. A persistent feeling that something was amiss troubled her.
Snap…
Takuya, lost in his thoughts, suddenly heard a faint cracking sound and swiftly lifted his head. His gaze fell upon the massive chandelier hanging precariously from the ceiling, which began to break apart and descend rapidly.
Several actresses, including Vermouth, were directly below it, oblivious to the impending danger.
"Careful!" Mouri Ran reacted swiftly, pushing two actresses out of harm's way before rushing toward Vermouth. Fortunately, Ran noticed the imminent threat; otherwise, Vermouth might not have been aware of it in time.
Vermouth, realizing Mouri Ran's valiant attempt to save her and with no time to evade, tried to shield herself using her body.
Despite being a seasoned combatant, she couldn't dodge the descending chandelier in such short notice.
Whoosh…
Takuya surged forward with incredible speed, launching himself directly beneath the chandelier and delivering a powerful kick.
Peng...
The chandelier, weighing several hundred pounds, was propelled away from its trajectory by Fujiwara Takuya's forceful strike.
It rolled across the floor before crashing against the wall.
Meanwhile, Takuya remained unharmed, save for a slight twitch in his leg, primarily due to the excessive force he exerted.
His extraordinary physique granted him remarkable strength, speed, and quick reflexes.
A chandelier weighing just a few hundred pounds was nothing compared to his capabilities; if it were a car plummeting from the sky, Takuya would have effortlessly broken his legs.
"Are you all right?" Both Kisaki Eri and Kudo Yukiko let out sighs of relief.
Eri, in particular, had watched her daughter nearly get struck by the chandelier with horror.
Thankfully, her beloved `husband´ intervened, saving her daughter Mouri Ran at the critical moment.
`My man is truly exceptional´, she mused, secretly planning to express her gratitude to Takuya later that evening.
Being pregnant limited her ability to offer direct assistance, but words of appreciation would suffice.
"Ran, are you okay?" Eri quickly pulled Mouri Ran to safety.
Vermouth also stood up, glanced at the distant chandelier, then back at Fujiwara Takuya, her heart filled with a mixture of gratitude and admiration.
This man wasn't just an outstanding policeman but possessed formidable fighting skills.
Kicking away a chandelier weighing hundreds of pounds with a single kick was beyond impressive; from that distance – at least ten meters – she couldn't even dream of achieving such feat.
"Oh my god!" Several foreigners exclaimed, thanking God for sparing their lives.
Vermouth, however, frowned slightly.
She remained deeply touched by Mouri Ran's selfless attempt to rescue her despite the danger. While ultimately unsuccessful, it was a gesture that spoke volumes about Ran's character.
"You should not thank God, but this young lady. She saved you. She is your angel."
"Yes, thank you so much, little girl." Several people began expressing their gratitude to Mouri Ran.
Takuya stood unobtrusively at the back of the crowd, acting as if the entire incident had no bearing on him.
He held no particular interest in Kudo Shinichi or the actresses present.
His focus remained solely on Kisaki Eri and his other targets.
Maintaining a low profile was essential; any public display of affection could jeopardize his plans with both Kisaki Eri and Mouri Ran.
And since Eri and Ran are mother and daughter, such thing was not possible for the time being.
If there was only one person at a time, he can focus fully on them and romance that person with his prowess.
‟Thank you so much right much", Vermouth also thanked Takuya.
Because if not for him, she would be injured and then she cannot work tomorrow, and that is much more important work which cannot be missed.
‟You don´t need to thank me, this is what I should do. How can I watch such a beautiful lady get hurt in front of me."
Takuya replied to her in a soft tone.
Vermouth was thankful, realizing what a wonderful man this person truly was.
‟Officer Fujiwara, I must admit, I didn't expect you to be quite so smooth."
"Ms. Sharon, In fact, I am also your fan. Let's catch up sometimes when you are free."
Takuya also wanted to know if Belmode's underwear color was pink.
This has to be investigated.
"Sure, I will call you sometime, Officer Fujiwara." Vermouth responded with a smile.
KisakiEri walked in front, comforting her daughter Ran who was physically and mentally traumatized,
But here her man was actually with other women and chatting and flirting so happily.
She had a feeling of being cuckolded right now.
She could only let the green hat be worn on her head, but she couldn't make any comments since theirs we were also hidden relationship.
Lest her daughter Mouri Ran find out.
Takuya seemed to be aware of Eri's expression, so he quickened his pace.
He hasn't tasted beauty in a long time, though, and wanted to take Kudou Yukiko as soon as possible.
Takuya Fujiwara didn't have that long to deal with Kudou Yukiko.
Get Yukiko as soon as possible, and it's best to do today.
Otherwise, he will soon be gone from the US; how can he possibly have the time to make Yukiko fall deeply in love with him?
And with the experience of the previous systems, Takuya also knew very well that everyone has their own weaknesses.
Under the coercion and temptation of the system, many people will compromise.
For example, Miyano Akemi directly came to Takuya, and Kisaki Eri took the initiative to go to the Metropolitan Police Department to make love with Takuya about having a baby that day.
"Let's go, I've already decided on the location."
Kudou Yukiko took the lead, taking the initiative to lead her son, her future daughter-in-law, and her future in-laws.
As for Takuya, she had already forgotten about it.
She really didn't want to see Fujiwara Takuya right now.
Especially Takuya Fujiwara's tender eyes before, even her heart was touched, and she kept drooling.
Takuya saw Yukiko's back, thinking in his heart what do to and started planning.
Anyway, Kudou Yukiko should go to learn the scriptures from him.
Vermouth who was behind them, was watching Takuya that time, seeing Takuya staring at Kudou Yukiko, she was speechless.
Unexpectedly, this man likes Kudou Yukiko.
Come on, Kudou Yukiko is already so old that no one will like her.
So is there still anyone who likes her?
She, Vermouth is a stunning beauty, even surpassing Kudou Yukiko in allure, and there are millions who adore her.
This woman had started fantasizing about herself.
Takuya had already devised a plan to manipulate her into fulfilling his desires. He would leverage her ambition and vulnerabilities, turning her into an unwitting pawn in his intricate game. He needed to move quickly, as time was of the essence.
[That´s all for now]
