YM778.TV Chapter 161
Usui, who was later known as the Flame Emperor, was enjoying his time on his balcony, reading a history book when the event happened . No matter whom or where, every person on Earth experienced an earthquake with a magnitude of 9 . 8 . Surprisingly, there were zero deaths and no buildings fall which dumbfounded several scientists who later claimed that it wasn’t an earthquake but something more mysterious .
Usui graduated from Oxford University but he didn’t directly find a job . His family was quite well-off and they didn’t lack any money, moreover, he was a prodigy since he was young . Whether it’s painting, poetry or even acting, he had numerous skills and excelled in every one of them . What he liked most was reading stories but since his parents always insisted he takes classes of this and that, his free time lessened every day .
As for the romantic side, his mother prepared a blind date with some lady of another rich family more than one time, but truthfully, he hated that .
The girls would fall in love with him and some of them were even a bit clingy but he would always reject them in a kind manner . Years passed and he managed to develop a unique nature, he never got angry or yelled at anyone, even when he was irritated by something, nothing would be shown on his face .
When the world changed, and what was supposed to be an earthquake struck the Earth, a blue window appeared in front of him .

Usui gazed at the blue notification in front of him for several minutes before he managed to comprehend what just happened . To be honest, he never was a fan of games, he tried playing a few of them but he didn’t find them as amusing as reading books whilst enjoying a cup of tea .
He may not be good at games, but he was acknowledgeable and after reading his status window a few times and checking his skills, he managed to comprehend a couple of things .
Such a sudden increase in Intelligence made him think a bit faster and remember some things from his infancy, the Wisdom was also helpful in coming up with more logical and better decisions or opinions .
He remained calm and picked up his book to try something, it was only a guess but it was confirmed when he found himself reading one page in a very short time . His reading and processing speed was augmented by a fair bit which pleased him but with power comes responsibility . Although he received something that should not exist, he was sure he was not alone and this was but the beginning .
The butler in their house rushed to Usui only to find him softly smile as he was looking at the book in his hand . He was worried for the safety of this young man but nothing out of the ordinary happened except that earthquake . No bookshelves fell and no ground was split apart .
’Now then . . . ’
Usui took a breath of fresh air and sat up from his chair, he looked at the blue sky and raised his left hand while mumbling with a low voice
