Chapter 22: I am a CEO
Six months had passed since he dated Ibara, but he must admit the result of his channel was better than he had thought.
Usually, All-Tuber would get attention for a year or two, or they might not even become famous, no matter how long they uploaded their videos.
However, it might be because his video was good that it quickly attracted attention, and the topic of his video was interesting, so the number of his subscribers had steadily risen to almost two million.
The numbers might sound exaggerated, but it might be because his skill in "Cinema Art" was too good. His appearance also wasn't bad, and after six months, his height also increased quite a lot, so he had gathered a lot of attention on the internet.
The length of his video also wasn't long, considering one video was around ten to fifteen minutes.
After all, he knew that a human couldn't maintain their focus too long, and it would also be wasteful to spend most of our time watching videos on the All-Tube, which was necessary to maintain the length of the video, so it wouldn't be too long.
However, what was better was that his money problem was solved, and he is quite well-off now.
Still, while he wanted to start a business to create a fishing shop or any other business, he didn't have time to do such a thing.
Instead, he only signed a contract with many fishing gears, ships, and others for endorsement. It was easy money, after all, so why should he refuse?
His parents were dumbfounded, but watching how smart he was.
Still, he gave his father a set of luxurious golf clubs and his mother a branded bag, so they would support him.
His family was just middle class, and they were far from being enough to be called rich, so without a doubt, they should have some greed on their minds when they saw how much money their son had made.
However, he felt it was normal, so he didn't blame them, so he also satisfied their vanity, considering he didn't lack money. It might also be part of him being sorry for them since he had taken the body of their son.
Even if their son wasn't that handsome, tall, and had a little boy like "wee-wee," it was better to be alive instead of dying, right?
This was what he had thought, but unexpectedly his parents refused his money and told him to keep it to himself. After all, they could still work, and their pride didn't allow them to use his money.
It was probably a difference in culture between his previous country and this country since borrowing from someone was a shame.
Frankly, they didn't feel the confidence to manage his money well, especially when a shipbuilding company gave him a fishing boat, which dumbfounded them at his business operation. It might be only a small boat ship, but it was already impressive.
After all, who would think the 3rd year middle school student would be able to get a ship?
Lastly, they also felt it was better for them to continue to work since even if his video channel was good, it might not be the case in the future. It was better to maintain the stability of their family, especially if their son planned to study further.
Still, they didn't support their son in joining the "U.A. High School" and becoming a hero since they knew how dangerous this job was. Instead, they felt it was better for him to join a good distinguished academic high school in Yokohama or Tokyo since they felt it could help his business well, especially when they had heard his plan.
He was good at business, so why shouldn't he become a businessman?
This was what his parents thought.
If Mineta had a system that was easy to use, he might agree since he didn't really want to become a hero. After all, he must admit that being a hero was dangerous.
He often heard that many heroes decided to move to the countryside or a small town after they retired, especially when they had a family, so they wouldn't be targeted by the villains they had caught during their careers.
Frankly, many heroes were still single.
Even the symbol of peace, the strongest hero in this country, All Might, didn't have a family.
As a hero, it was easy for them to get a partner, considering their fame.
However, those heroes understood that being in this career made it hard for them to have a family since they could be targeted by a villain anytime.
He understood that fact, and it was the reason why he was reluctant to become a hero since he had parents.
If he was an orphan, or his parents were also a hero, he wouldn't think so.
Unfortunately, his circumstances weren't what he mentioned above.
Fortunately, his "Color Manipulation" allowed him to disguise himself. If he wanted to, he could also mess up those villains' sense of vision, so they wouldn't be able to identify his identity.
But even the tightest vault could be breached.
He knew that no matter how he tried to hide his identity, he knew that his identity could be known sooner or later. After all, all the information about the hero was kept by the government, and the work of the government was like that.
As long as one gave money, nothing was impossible.
Even if one tried to hide one's identity so desperately when one became a hero, it would do nothing.
After all, even a monkey also fell from the tree.
Instead of relying on the plot where the villains wouldn't target the student no matter what, it was better to rely on his system to get stronger and give safety to him and the people he cared about.
Still, everything in the system needed points.
He collected 180,000 points after dating Ibara for six months and, along with 1,000 bonus points, gave him 181,000 points.
All those points he invested in his height and the size of his "wee-wee."
He knew that many people might think he was stupid, but this was necessary since his system was related to the matter of relationships. If he didn't fix the size of his "wee-wee," even though his height increased, it would be troublesome.
While it was quite shameful, he used 110,000 points to get to 11 cm, giving a total of 19 cm in length.
On the other hand, his height also increased to 149 cm from 108 cm.
He splurged 151,000 points without hesitation, leaving him with only 30,000 points.
As for why he didn't use the rest of his points, he wanted to keep them to buy the ability he was interested in.
Hardening (Beginner).
The price of this ability was around 50,000 points, and even though it was only the "Beginner" level, it would make his body as hard as steel.
He could also coat this ability with his sticky substance, giving an attack power, which was non-existent in the past. Yet, at the same time, this ability wouldn't make his substance lose its sticky and stretchy nature.
The combination of stickiness, stretchiness, and stiffness evolved his "Quirk" even more.
He only needed another 20,000 points, so he would have to wait at least twenty days.
By then, he could focus on increasing his height and charm.
Still, if he was at school, it might be impossible for him to think about a lot of things.
However, he didn't enter the school and took a break since he had just had surgery. He wasn't hurt or had a crisis, but he had just had a circumcision on his penis. He was too lazy to pull the head out from the skin to clean it every time, so it was better to have a circumcision.
While his parents were surprised, they didn't say much.
However, they must admit that while their son was short, he was well-endowed.
Anyway, he was in his room, trying to think about his future, but suddenly he heard his mother's voice.
"Minoru, Ibara-chan is here!"
"....."
