Welcome to the Multiverse Chat Group!

Upon returning home, Yuuji took a quick bath, did his assignments, and checked the status of London Gold for his investments in his laptop.

…This much increase. Seems like I underestimated the proficiency I got from the Chat Group.

While he knew that gold rates fluctuate greatly on a daily basis, he still didn't expect it to change this much. This must be why his instincts told him to start with London Gold yesterday.

An increase of $10… Meaning if I sell it now, I can get a $1000 return.

With the $100 dollars his mother gave him and the 100 times leverage he used to buy $10,000 worth of gold, an increase in $10 would mean a profit return of $1000.

(AN: Leverages, as explained in previous chapters, are used to "leverage" or increase the buying power of investor, allowing them to buy more goods and thus, increasing the profit margin. In turn, it also increases the losses the investor would suffer in case the value of the stock or gold they invest in decreases.

I'm still learning about these investment types as well, so if you're knowledgeable, please don't hesitate to clarify the info in the comments. Would love to learn more about them.

Keep in mind that most of the numbers here are purposefully exaggerated and the info are simplified for story purposes. But, I still try to make it realistic as much as possible.)

Yuuji deliberated for a moment. A profit return of $1000 was already beyond his expectations. In just a day, he had surpassed the goal his mother set for him by far.

If he held on, perhaps he could gain even more profit tomorrow. But somehow, he didn't feel comfortable with it.

…Mm, I should trust my feeling and sell it for now.

In the end, he pressed the sell button on all the contracts he bought for $10,000 and received the $1000 in profits to his account.

Yuuji let out a sigh of relief. It was as if a weight has been lifted from his shoulders.

Looking at his account, he couldn't help but feel a bit proud and excited. This was the first time he had this much money in his account, and it was the money he made himself! $1000, which is equivalent to around 100,000 yen, was something a normal first-year highschool student like him wouldn't be able to dream off!

Soon, the excitement and pride quickly turned into determination. His proficiency in Investment had been proven. His dream to give his family a lavish life without worry was no longer just a dream.

He could turn it into a reality. And with this seed money and his investment proficiency, he could gain even more.

Alright. Let's use this money to do some active trading!

(AN: Active trading, or day trade, is buying and selling stocks on short-term price changes to profit from those slight price movements.)

Since he felt uncomfortable putting them back into London Gold, for now, Yuuji decided to use the stock market software on his laptop to buy a few stocks from various companies and then sell it a little while after when the price rose.

He wanted to test the limit of the proficiency he received from the chat group, so instead of "scalping", where he would be opening and closing trades rapidly to profit from the minute changes in price while using a large amount of leverage to amplify his profit, he will be trying "swinging" instead.

He will place a few positions with all of his earnings and maximum leverage on various stocks that he "predicted" would increase in price by the next few days and see how much he could earn by trusting his instincts and his [Investment Proficiency].

And since he's not a US trader, the Pattern-Day-Rule, which would mark his account the moment he placed his fourth day trade in a five-day window and prevent him from placing any day trades for 90 days unless he had $25,000 or more in his account, will not be applicable to him.

He could also keep trading outside of the Asian session, since he could simply trade in the European or the North American sessions, allowing him to trade at any time of the day. So whenever he felt would be the right time to buy or sell his stocks, he could do it immediately.

Alright. Now, I'll simply wait and reap the profit when the time is right.

His lips curled into a small smile. He understands now the feeling of happiness and excitement that comes with making money for his family. After all, even though he knew full well that the amazing women in his family were fully capable of taking care of themselves, having the financial capability to pamper the women he loves was something any man would be happy for.

He truly looked forward to the future when he could pamper them freely and have a carefree life without having to worry about money.

Yuuji stretched his body and closed his laptop to go for dinner.

Unfortunately, Aika was still busy with her cafe, so Yuuji, Mira, and his sister ate their dinner with only the four of them.

During dinner, his mother told everyone that a daughter of her friend will be coming to visit.

"She will be attending your high school too and she's still not that fluent in Japanese, so please take care of her, okay~? She will also be visiting us this Sunday, so we will be welcoming her~"

"From Germany~? That's amazing~! I've never known anyone from there~!"

"Her name doesn't sound German…"

Nina looked at Mira confusedly. Rather than German, Viktoriya Ivanova Serebryakov sounded like a name from a different country.

"That's because their ancestors weren't originally from there. But after their war merits in world war one, they've become a true citizen of that country. The only reason why their names still sound like that was due to their desire to honor their ancestors."

"I see…"

Nodding in understanding, Nina continued to eat.

"Could she at least speak english, mom? Otherwise, it might be difficult for us to converse…"

Yuuji asked. If she could only speak in German, then she might only be able to talk to Mira. It would be really difficult to help her in school as well if she couldn't speak in english at the very least.

"Of course. She could also write and read Japanese a fair amount, and is also fairly fluent in English, so you don't have to worry~"

"I understand."

After that conversation, they all returned to their dinner while Yuna began questioning their mother about the foreign student until they finished.

Returning from his dinner, Yuuji checked his smartphone and saw several message notifications. Most were notifications from random conversations in the chat group, but there was one that piqued his interest.

Lelouch Lamperouge: "I would like your advise on managing my investments in these Sakuradite companies."

The message was sent to him while he was having dinner with his mother and sisters. It has been quite a while, given Yuuji was also chatting with them while he ate his dinner. It went on for almost an hour and a half before they finished their dinner.

Tsubakihara Yuuji: "Sure. I'll do my best to help."

The time in Lelouch's world run slower than his world, so while waiting for a reply, Yuuji decided to open his laptop and try to find some materials to help him learn Germany.

It was easy enough for him to find japanese learning materials for learning Germandue to the strong bond the two countries have with each other. Japan hadn't only adopted many cultures from the German, it has also adopted many of its customs ever since the intense cultural exchange that took place from the middle of the 19th century to the early 20th century. Japan also viewed them as "role models" due to their speed and efficiency in modernization.

Come to think of it, Suzuki considers German culture cool, didn't he?

Yuuji recalled the egghead with three-holes of an NPC Suzuki created in Yggdrasil that had quite the resemblance with the German's old military uniforms. It was the embodiment of Suzuki's obsession with the German culture.

And he also remembered how embarrassed he would be when he found out the embodiment of his dark history would come alive.

I really hope he forgot about it and leave it be.

Since Suzuki now knows about his future, it wouldn't be strange if he changed some of the NPC's settings or strengthen his home while it is still a game.

But, Yuuji sincerely hope he forgot to change Pandora's Actor's settings and leave it be. Else, it would be a pity to lose a teasing material for his friend.

Yuuji bought several e-books for learning Germany and began reading them. His learning process was accelerated immensely due to his [Divine Physique], and he absorbed everything like a sponge.

In just a few minutes, he could already read, write, and speak several phrases and sentences with almost native-level pronunciation and fluency.

But just as he was about to continue, a message notification caught his attention and he quickly went to read it.

Lelouch Lamperouge: "I would like your opinion regarding the management of the investments I've received from the Group Chat."

Lelouch Lamperouge: "If possible, I want to amass my wealth now to help me with my plans."

Tsubakihara Yuuji: "I see. If you're fine with me, then please ask away. I would be happy to help.

Lelouch Lamperouge: "Thank you. I have a few questions regarding the current status of my investments."

Thus, with Lelouch barraging him with questions, Yuuji couldn't return to his german language studies until midnight comes.

--------------------------------X--------------------------------

Morning came to Yuuji earlier than he would've liked.

It was fun talking with Lelouch. He was very intelligent just like how his anime perceived him to be. He was capable of understanding the reasons and meanings behind Yuuji's words very quickly without him having to say it explicity.

If only he could've hold back a little and remember that time much quicker in Yuuji's world, he would've felt much better about the conversation.

However, despite having slept only a few hours before he needed to wake up and make his sisters' and his lunch with his mother, Yuuji was perfectly fine. In fact, he was feeling energized. It was as if he had awakened from an amazing night of sleep.

He stretched his whole body and did a few hundred push ups, sit ups, and squats for an awhile without breaking a sweat before going for a morning bath to freshen up.

There was still some time before he had to make his and his sisters' lunch boxes with his mother, so Yuuji opened his laptop and checked the price of london gold.

As he expected, the price fell by $6 and it was still on a declining trend. If he bought it again with all of his money, he would've had to waited quite a while before it would increase again for him to profit.

On the other hand, the stocks he invested in were steadily growing. But it wasn't the time to sell yet. Once he the time comes, he will sell all those stocks and get ready to invest back in London gold when the price fell to its lowest.

Yuuji closed his laptop and opened his smartphone, replying to group messages and direct messages he received before going down for another long-awaited session of cooking with his beautiful, sexy mother.

--------------------------------X--------------------------------

Arriving in school, Yuuji went to his sisters' class first before going to his. But the moment they arrived near Yuna and Nina's class, Yuuji noticed a familiar figure standing in front of the class and another one standing beside her.

They seemed to also notice their arrival as the familiar figure waved their hand towards him.

"Ah! Yuuji-kun~ Yuna-chan~ Nina-chan~ Good morning~!"

"Eh? G-Good morning… Morishima-senpai? Tsukahara-senpai as well!? Is there something you need?"

Yuna asked in surprise. Even though she and her sister gott along well with the two, seeing them so early in the morning in front of their class was something that had never happened before.

But right after Yuna asked her question, Haruka began to pout and glanced at her best friend who began to step forward towards Yuna, Nina, and Yuuji.

"I'm sorry for bothering you this early in the morning. I wasn't sure if we could have the opportunity to meet you later, so we came now."

"Ah, it is fine, Tsukahara-senpai. Is there something you need from us?"

Hibiki's face softened with a smile.

While she wasn't on the level of Haruka in terms of beauty, the jet-black haired senior with brown eyes was a beauty in her own right. At least in Yuuji's eyes, her beautiful sharp eyes, mature disposition, and the shapely figure that seemed to have been sculpted to perfection by her efforts in the swimming club were beautiful and awe-inspiring.

It made him wonder why was he so blessed with so many beautiful woman around him.

"No, I'm just here to say thank you for not lending your school swimsuits to Haruka. Anyone outside of the swimming club is forbidden to enter the swimming pool during club activities. If she came in a swimsuit, she would've caused a mess in the swimming club and disturb our activities."

"Geez~ I told you I'm just going to swim a little and watch the girls shed their youthful sweat!"

"I've told you, no matter the reason, you can't just enter the swimming pool willy-nilly during club hours…"

Hibiki shook her head tiredly and let out a heavy sigh.

"Well, as you two know, this is just how she is. I will apologize on her behalf, and thank you for preventing her from doing something stupid yet again. I truly appreciate it."

"Ah, it was nothing, Tsukahara-senpai! We are happy to be of help to you."

"Yes. We simply did what should be done."

Hibiki smiled softly and shifted his gaze towards Yuuji, her eyes immediately locking into his.

With his new appearance, anyone who laid their gaze on him would've scan his entire figure immediately. It wasn't surprising, considering his figure that has been enhanced be [Divine Physique] was a pinnacle and the true embodiment of masculine beauty. It wasn't something anyone could easily ignore.

Yet, Hibiki seemed to focus more on what he truly was, not just his appearance. It caught him by surprise at first, but a sense of admiration and respect filled his heart. She was not one to judge others' by their appearance, but rather who they truly are in the inside.

Perhaps, this was why she could get along very well with Haruka, and why Ai truly respect her as her captain and senior.

She stared right into Yuuji's eyes for a moment, and he gazed back unperturbed, until a smile bloomed on her face.

"I see now why Haruka can't stop talking about you."

"Hm?"

Yuuji tilted his head confusedly.

"Right~? Ufufufu~ He doesn't freeze up or become nervous around me~ It's refreshing~!"

Ahhh so that's what she meant.

Yuuji thought in his mind.

Well, he has been living his life with his mother, sisters, and aunt since he was young, all of whom were supreme beauties. It wasn't a surprise for him to get an immunity to beauties to a certain extent.

He won't freeze up or act like a deer in headlights whenever he meets a beauty anymore. If he did, he would very well be just be a frozen statue in his own home.

Yuuji smiled softly and glanced at his sisters.

"My sisters are beauties as well, after all. I am used to beauties to a certain extent just by living under the same roof with them."

Hibiki and Haruka's eyes widened, surprised by his boldness with his words. Very few men, especially boys his age, could be so bold as to compliment women for their beauty genuinely, without any ulterior motives. Moreso their siblings and in front of other people.

But he was able to compliment his sisters in front of her and Haruka.

Hibiki's lips curled into a small smile and her eyes narrowed at him.

"Oh my, it seems you are gifted with a silver tongue as well."

"I was simply telling the truth."

Yuna and Nina were now already blushing readly from their beloved brother's compliment. And in front of their friends, classmates, and their seniors as well! So confidently!

Of course they'll be super embarrassed!

"Then we will return now. I'm sorry for holding you back."

"There's no need for that, Tsukahara-senpai. It is our pleasure."

Hibiki nodded and wrapped her arm around Haruka's to drag her away.

"Ah! Hibiki-chan, there's no need to do that! See you later, Yuna-chan, Nina-chan, Yuuji-kun~!"

Haruka waved her arms widely as she yelled her goodbyes.

"Y-Yes! See you later, Morishima-senpai."

"Good bye."

Yuuji waved his hand back and watched their receding back until they were no longer in sight.

"Well then, I'll go to my class too, okay?"

"U-Uhn. Thank you, Yuu-kun."

"Mm. See you later."

"See you later, Yuna, Nina."

--------------------------------X--------------------------------

Morning class went by as normal.

Despite having mastered the entire year's worth of curriculum by reading ahead during his class, Yuuji still listened to his teachers quietly and made notes in his notebook. While he may not need it, his sisters or perhaps his friends might need it, so he tried making it as neatly and as easily understandable as possible.

The school bell for lunch finally rang and the teacher quickly told the students to read ahead to prepare for the next lesson before exiting the class.

"Phew~ It's finally lunch~ Are you going to eat lunch with your sisters again today, Yuuji? If you are, can you please introduce me to them~?"

Shu said with a joking tone as he turned around on his seat and looked at Yuuji with his usual grin.

"In your dreams. I'm not eating lunch with them today. They said they'll be eating lunch with Morishima-senpai and Tsukahara-senpai."

"Oooh~? Really now~? Now that's some spicy news~ I'm sure the entire male population in this school would love to see such a gathering of beauties."

"...If you dare do anything, I swear you'd rather stay home than show your face before me again."

"I'm just joking~ Don't need to be that scary, you siscon~ I ain't going to blabber any info about my best friends' sister~ I have morals too, you know~?"

"...First time I've heard of it. Hah… If you want to have lunch together, then let's go. Raku, you coming?"

"Ah, sure! I was just thinking of going to the cafeteria."

"Alright. Then let's-"

"Y-Yuuji!!!"

Surprised, Yuuji, Shu, and Raku immediately turned around towards the source of the voice calling him out with a loud voice.

"Yotsuba?"

Charging towards his table, Yotsuba slams her hands down on his table and lowered her head towards him, staring at him with eyes wide open and cheeks blushing red.

"W-What's wrong…?"

Yuuji asked warrily, taken aback by her sudden aggressiveness. She looked anxious and nervous, but also determined. He truly didn't know what caused her to suddenly be like this.

"C-C-Can I talked to you for a moment."

"...Sure."

--------------------------------X--------------------------------

Yotsuba lead Yuuji to a quite place so they could speak alone uninterrupted.

Most of the students were in the cafeteria for lunch, so anywhere else was quite desolate. After searching for a while, they finally settled in the open space behind the school building, not too terribly far away from the cafeteria, where the school garden was.

The ground was covered in grass and trees and several flower bushes were planted to make it seem like a true garden. There were also a little garden that was specially taken care of by the florist club, as well as a little pen with various animals such as rabbits that are taken care of by another club as well.

Closer to the school building, near the entrance at the direction of the cafeteria, there were several benches where students would usually sit on for lunch. In fact, there were several already several female students with their bento at hand, sitting on the benches and getting ready to eat before their gaze met with Yuuji.

Yuuji slightly lowered his head, recognizing their presence, and continued following Yotsuba. Soon after, he could hear gasps and shrieks, followed by giggles as well as the sound of a smartphone camera capturing an image.

Ah… I should've got used to it, but it still feels strange after all.

It was very flattering, without a doubt, but he still felt a bit awkward. Though, there's nothing else he could do except for trying his best to get use to it. After all, there was just no way to hide his appearance. Even if he wore a mask, his figure would still attract attention, given he has a figure even better than any male top models in the world. His uniform and blazer was simply not enough to hide the rippling, well-defined muscles underneath them and his height.

His figure alone could give away his identity, given no other male in this entire school, even the athletes, had a body rivaling his perfection.

After walking a bit farther away from where the entrance to the cafeteria was, Yotsuba finally stopped and suddenly turned towards Yuuji before bowing down in a 90-degree angle.

"Yuuji! I have a request! Will you teach me and my sisters for the upcoming exams?"

"Eh?! W-Wait, Yotsuba, calm down! Stop bowing down like that! Can you explain to me the situation first…? Even if you request that of me so suddenly, I still can't understand the situation…"

Slowly rising from her bow, Yotsuba begin scratching her redly blushing cheek and avert her eyes away in embarrassment.

"Actually… Uhm, you know that I'm a quintuplet, right? Just like me, my sisters aren't that well-versed in studying, so our father has been trying to find us a tutor to help us."

She begin, fidgeting her legs and hands nervously after finally admitting that she was helpless in terms of studying to her friend and subject of her interest and attraction.

"He already had one planned, but I asked him to wait because I know someone who's v-very smart and who I get along with as well… So…"

Listening to her words, Yuuji finally understood her situation.

"I see. And I'm guessing this person is me?"

"Uhn… Your notes are very easy to understand. I mean, even I could understand it after reading it once! It's a miracle! A-And rather than a stranger, I-I'd like if you were the one to teach m-, I mean, us! W-What do you think?"

Yotsuba glanced shyly upwards, trying to gauge Yuuji's reaction by his expression as he fell into a thought.

"...I never really meet your sisters. If it is just you, then I would be happy to. But your sisters and I might not get along well, and it will be very difficult for them to learn anything if they don't have the intention of listening to me…"

"That's impossible! I'm sure they'll get along with you very well! A-After all, y-you're kind, a-a-and understanding, a-a-and…"

Smiling softly at her adorableness, Yuuji sighed softly and answered.

"I will think abou tit."

"R-Really?! Thank you so much!!! My father will be paying you, so you don't have to worry!"

A brilliant smile immediately appeared on her face. Her eyes sparkling with happiness and excitement. She can't believe she managed to have him as their tutor!!!

"Ah, I don't mind teaching you even if it is for free, but… I'm still considering it. I have things I need to do after school, so it might be difficult for me to spend too much time on teaching you and your sisters every day after school."

Yuuji said apologetically. But, this was still something he needed to deliberate carefully.

With his newfound skills, there are a lot of things Yuuji wanted to do.

For now, he wanted to focus on trading stocks and building up his investments so that he could spoil his family in the future.

Then, he's also planning on making an analytical tool for stock trading and investments to make her mother's work easier in the near future. With his Investment and Programming Proficiency, he was confident he could create the world's most accurate analytical tool.

Then, he also wanted to rip off successful applications and games that he knew from his past life's memories and recreate it in this world.

Not to mention, he might be asked to help her aunt with her cafe. He had done so multiple times in the past, so his days might be packed.

He didn't want to make a promise that he might not be able to fulfill, so he needed to think about this carefully.

"I-I see…"

Seeinig the shining sunflower suddenly wilt down into a frown, Yuuji sighed inwardly and let out a small smile.

"But if it is just during exam periods and a few hours after school, I might be able to do so on occasion."

"R-Really?! Are you sure?!?!"

"Uhn. And, if there are times that I'm busy, I'll leave my notebooks to you and you can share it with your sisters."

"Thank you!!!! I'll tell this to my sisters!!!"

"Sure. Oh, but I'm not acquainted with your sisters yet. Will that be okay?"

"Hm? Oh, then would you like to meet them now?"

"Hm…Would I be disturbing their lunch?"

"I'm sure it will be fine~!"

"...Okay. Let's go now. That way, they will have time to deliberate whether or not they would like me to teach them after meeting me in person."

"Great~! Let's go!"

"Ah, please go ahead first. I will bring my lunch over and find you in the cafeteria."

"Okay~"
