Chapter 47 Cute?!!!

The question hung in the air, a weighty pause as Ellie's eyes bore into Kan's. The room was filled with anticipation, every member of the gang awaiting his response.

Kan's gaze shifted from Ellie to the others and back again. He could sense the uniqueness in each face, the individuality that made up this unlikely group of misfits. While not all the stares were welcoming, there was an undercurrent of unity among them.

He grinned in response, his head nodding affirmatively. "It's not like I have anything to lose," he replied, a touch of determination in his voice.

Ellie's face broke into a radiant smile, tears long dried on her cheeks. She dashed across the room, wrapping her arms around Kan in an embrace that conveyed a blend of relief and happiness. The others moved forward, each extending their hands to welcome him into the fold.

As handshakes and greetings continued, a system notification appeared before Kan's eyes, momentarily diverting his attention.

[Congratulations, host has successfully completed secret quest -*Expansion*]

[Rewards: +10 stat points to all stats]

[1 free level boost available to be used on any skill]

[Charm has leveled up]

[Charm level 2 - Now host's attraction has increased to the point females would tend to lose their heads around host. Host can further amplify this effect by using either the arousal skill or pheromone]

Kan's internal excitement was palpable, the system's rewards proving to be an unexpected delight. "I completed a secret quest?! Look at these rewards! I'll have to check them all out later!" he thought, mentally listing out the ways he could enhance his capabilities.

His attention was drawn back to the present as the others discussed the gang's name. "Hey, you guys need a menacing name, don't you think?" Kan suggested.

Ellie's response was swift and positive. "We need a menacing name. You are a part of this gang now."

Kan proposed the name "Outcasts," and the gang members took a moment to consider it. The name resonated with their collective identity, representing their shared status as those who didn't fit neatly into society's mold.

Amid the camaraderie, Kan felt a strong connection to this new group. He contemplated the significance of the system and its impact on his life, a sense of gratitude washing over him. "This thing is like a cheat code. I wish it came earlier!" he mused, reflecting on the opportunities it could have provided in his past life.

But the atmosphere shifted as Jessica raised a question about Kan's role within the gang. The mood grew somber, a weight of expectation settling over the room. Kan glanced around, noting the change in demeanor.

Kane intervened, playfully dismissing the concern and emphasizing that Kan's place would naturally reveal itself over time. The tension eased as Kane handed out cans, bringing back a sense of shared enjoyment.

"To Kan, the newest addition of the Outcasts!" Ellie raised her can in a toast, sealing Kan's induction into the gang. Kan's smirk revealed a mix of amusement and excitement. This was a path he never thought he would tread, a decision driven by his newfound desire for experiences in this transformed world.

As the cans clinked together and laughter resonated through the room, Kan felt a sense of belonging he had long yearned for. This new chapter in his life had begun, and with it came the promise of adventure, camaraderie, and the unexpected twists of a world remolded by supernatural powers.

As the sun began to dip below the horizon, casting a warm orange glow over the city, Kan and Ellie made their way back from the Outcast hideout. Kan, still dressed in his school uniform, seemed unfazed by the fact that he had skipped school for the entire day. His mind was consumed by thoughts of the new gang he had joined and the secrets he had learned.

Walking side by side on the familiar streets, their conversation flowed easily between them. Kan's curiosity got the better of him, and he turned to Ellie with a question. "Hey, so you still work with the Blood Wolves, right?"

Ellie's expression was a mix of surprise and curiosity. "Yes, that's right. Is there something specific you want to know?"

Kan's gaze was determined as he proposed his idea. "I might have an idea on how you could get revenge on Joaquin and the Blood Wolves. But in order for it to work, I need to know everything you know about the gang and its operations."

A thoughtful look crossed Ellie's face, and a small smile played at the corner of her lips. "I'd be willing to tell you everything if it means we can bring them down. But it might take a while to go through all the details. If you're not in a hurry, we could continue discussing it at my place."

Kan agreed with a nod. "Sure, I've got time."

As they walked towards their respective homes, Ellie couldn't help but make a light-hearted comment about Kan's appearance. "You know, your ears poking out like that actually suits you. It makes you look cute!"

Kan's brows furrowed in confusion, not quite catching her compliment the first time. "Huh?"

Blushing slightly, Ellie repeated herself, her embarrassment evident. "I said your ears make you look cute. I like them!"

"Yeah, I heard you the first time. Don't make a big deal out of it," Kan responded, his cheeks tinged with pink. He didn't want to admit that being called cute made him feel uncomfortable, like it diminished his presence.

Hela chimed in with her own commentary, her voice dripping with irritation. [How dare her. I say you ditch her and go home now!]

Kan's lips curled into a mischievous grin as he replied internally to Hela. "No, I've got a better idea."

Before Ellie could react, Kan quickened his pace and circled around to stand behind her, facing her doorstep. "You live alone, right?" he asked, his tone playful.

Ellie turned to face him, her surprise evident. "Yeah, why?"

Kan's grin widened as he reached for her front door. "Well, how about I come in for a bit? After all, we have some planning to do, right?"

As they both stood at Ellie's doorstep, the warm glow of the setting sun enveloped them. The residential houses along the path exuded a cozy charm, their windows emitting soft light as families settled in for the evening. The path itself was lined with neatly trimmed hedges and colorful flowers, offering a serene atmosphere amidst the bustling city.

The playful banter between Kan and Ellie continued as they crossed the threshold into Ellie's home, embarking on a new phase of their journey to uncover the secrets of the Blood Wolves and seek revenge.
