"?"

When Su Cheng was filled with questions, he would fall into a strange mix of emotions.

Confusion, guilt, self-blame, along with some bewilderment, uncertainty, and other feelings.

His expression kept changing as he stood there in the mall bathroom, lost in thought.

Understandably, this character information had given him a massive shock, leaving him at a loss.

Student Council President?

Student Council President!!??

?!!

Was this some kind of joke??

That seemingly weak, gentle, and kind girl was actually the Student Council President revered, admired, and respected by all teachers and students at school!?

Moreover, she was even dubbed as this world's 'protagonist,' a perfect being that appears once in a thousand years?

After reading this system prompt, his head kept burning, feeling as if his entire brain had been bombarded by this news, even experiencing dizziness.

This was just too shocking!!

But as he calmed down, another stronger emotion rose in his heart.

That was guilt.

Earlier, the Student Council President had defied the Board of Directors for his sake.

He truly admired her as the Student Council President.

Yet just moments ago, he had bullied the Student Council President.

What a terrible thing to do.

He felt his conscience had been severely trampled.

"At this point, I can only try to make up for it in the future."

Su Cheng muttered to himself, his eyes showing a hint of determination, knowing this was all he could do.

"Ding—"

[Random item reward has been deposited in system space, please check.]

"What's this S-rank reward?"

Hearing the system prompt, Su Cheng held his breath and checked the item inventory with a thought.

[Ding—]

[Ring-Pommel Sword—Ghost Blade]

[Effect: Visual Effect]

[System: When activated, it grants you and your clothing light-bending abilities, achieving invisibility.]

[System: Journey to the mortal realm's grand feast, once the ghost blade opens, none shall see.]

"This... this this this..."

Su Cheng's eyes widened, his mouth agape, feeling his worldview had been completely overturned.

This was invisibility, for crying out loud!!

Though the previous cigarette was also incredible, it was a consumable item that would turn him back to normal once used up.

But this item before him was completely different—it not only had invisibility function but wasn't consumable.

This meant he had gained a superpower.

And invisibility at that!

How could he possibly remain calm!?

Su Cheng's heart was like a stormy sea, this was something he hadn't even dreamed of!!

This was a real, perfect superpower!

A superpower!!

This was just too exciting!!

Su Cheng couldn't find words to describe his feelings; his heart was racing uncontrollably, his whole body trembling, this excitement was simply indescribable.

[Ding—]

[Congratulations host on entering the supernatural realm]

Hearing this system voice, Su Cheng's expression froze.

Supernatural?

This meant he was no longer ordinary, but possessed abilities that transcended normal humans.

At this moment, his desires could no longer be contained, he was almost going mad with excitement, unable to suppress the intense impulse in his heart.

He couldn't be blamed for this; it was human nature.

Driven by this instinct, he could barely control himself anymore.

He eagerly took out the ghost blade and examined it carefully, though his hands holding the blade were trembling.

He had seen this sword before in a museum.

He remembered,

The Ring-Pommel Sword, also known as the Han Sword.

It was the ancestor of Chinese war swords.

It was the most advanced and lethal close-combat weapon in the world at the time, a weapon of extraordinary significance in human history.

To some extent, this sword had dealt devastating blows to foreign tribes, forcing northern tribes to migrate west and southern tribes to submit.

It's no exaggeration to say that this sword's achievements had cut short the fate of foreign nations, making it China's ultimate blade at the time.

Just like the impact he would now have on ordinary people with this sword.

A dimensional strike!

Moreover, this sword was extremely beautiful and imposing, about one meter in length, roughly 8 centimeters wide, a straight-edged steel blade, thick spine and thin edge, with a flat circular ring at the handle's end, wrapped with dark red cord-like material.

"Hiss~"

Su Cheng instinctively touched the blade's edge, feeling its icy coldness, as if it could pierce through steel, giving him a bone-chilling sensation.

He raised the sword and swung it, seeing it glint with metallic luster under the lights, giving off a sense of coldness and sharpness.

In short, it was a weapon that combined both hardness and flexibility.

He felt he could deliver lethal strikes with just one hand and some skillful force.

"Right, let's try the invisibility effect."

Suppressing his excitement, Su Cheng regulated his breathing, then focused his thoughts: "Activate invisibility!"

Then he fixed his eyes on the hand holding the sword handle, his entire body tense.

Suddenly—

The sword tip emitted a barely noticeable light, then began to fade, finally disappearing as if the tip had broken off.

Before he could think much about it, the blade, handle, then his hand, and his entire right arm disappeared, followed by his whole body.

"Holy crap!"

Even though he was mentally prepared, this still caught him off guard.

Because he couldn't see his body anymore, he could only rely on his control and the feeling of the sword in his hand to know he was just invisible, not gone.

Thinking this, he suddenly stood up from the toilet while holding the sword, then took a few steps forward.

The next second, a loud 'bang' rang out, followed by his painful cry.

"Ouch, that hurts!"

Su Cheng had slipped and fallen to the ground, crying out in pain.

This made him realize the brain's habitual nature.

Since his body was invisible.

His brain couldn't make judgments.

And since his eyes couldn't see, he couldn't judge his foot position, causing him to slip on water and fall, quite hard at that.

"Looks like I'll need practice to fully master this."

Su Cheng sighed, returning the ghost blade to the system space, immediately returning to normal. He straightened his clothes, then prepared to go home to practice.
