Seth was expecting some great effects to his work performance thanks to his 55+ stats on average... but not this big of an effect!
Everyone was in awe at first from the new body Seth was rocking. his six pack was well defined, his arms were well toned and looking like he was a religious gymnast who lifted appropriate weights for his art. And his legs looked like they were forged from metal.
No man on the debris clearing field was feeling like he could ever measure up to whatever diet and exercise plan Seth put himself through. But they were all slack jawed at seeing his efforts in the fields. The boulders and tree stumps that normally required at least a full team to tackle together, were now being uprooted, lifted, and carried by one man. A man who, after over 2 hours straight of working with no breaks, was only sweating a medium amount, and only now starting to breath harder than normal.
Almost like he was on a light jog, versus lifting 300 pound boulders like half a bale of hay onto his shoulders!
The men were on the side in awe as he finished loading the heavy duty cart they were given, and instead of bugging the horse team they had, who were quietly grazing on some bushes and grass patches they found. Grabbed the cart handles and ran it back to the truck in almost no time at all!
He must have been going nearly as fast as the fastest human that had ever run! Maybe 45km per hour!
Seth sweat dropped as he heard the guys muttering about his speed, I'm actually going closer to 60 km/hour but they don't need to know that.
In truth, Seth tested how fast he could run this morning with Hinatas help, she used her Byakugan to track him as he ran around the property and she helped calculate how fast it took him to clear the 1 mile perimeter of land in the span of a minute and a half. he had gone his current fastest and they found his current maximum speed was almost 65 km/hour! In USA he was going 40 miles! He could break the speed limits in most cities and towns!
if he wasn't careful he would gain attention from the government in a bad way. For now, he was planning to avoid going faster than this speed unless it was an emergency.
And thankfully today, no one had gotten trapped under any trees or rocks. So he was good to keep on clearing the land. His coworkers were still working, they were mostly doing his first job of clearing the smaller debris and putting them into the cart while he did their jobs all at once by taking care of the heaviest loads.
Soon enough they went onto the next acre of land after three hours with Seth doing his best in clearing everything one cart at a time.
Once the girls came with lunches they were a third done with the second acre they were given.
Of course the men focused on their meals but all the ladies could not tear their eyes away from Seth's body. He was in the middle of taking off his sweat soaked tank top and replacing it as the heat and constant movement had finally gotten to him. As he used a spare towel to wipe the sweat off, most of the women were squirming a bit and licking their suddenly dry lips as the unknowing prime male specimen was wiping off all the sweat that was trickling down his abs and across his tight arm muscles. Every flex popped, and every twist of his core made them gulp.
Only once he was done and looked up did he notice the blushing faces of all the women. And Blossom was no exception. She was blushing nearly neon red and was practically drooling as she was remembering their date tomorrow.
Seth chuckles as he walks right up to her, still shirtless, and watched as her eyes danced across his muscles like it was a road map, with one more small chuckle he says, "My eyes are up here. Not that I mind you eyeing me up, but I would like to see the pretty eyes of my date partner."
Blossom goes ramrod straight as she realizes that she is eyeing up the guy she is going on a date tomorrow like she is the thirstiest, most desperate woman in the world. But she swallowed her nerves and gazed up at him, making her look like an adorable puppy asking for a treat.
Seth's heart skips a beat at her adorableness and kisses her forehead. She eeps as all the girls squeal in joy at the sign of affection. While Seth then gives her a happy smile and then a slightly serious tone as he says, "Also I have to be upfront with you about something important on our date tomorrow. Just come prepared for a very serious talk about what I am looking for in a relationship with you and come ready to share with me your thoughts on it. I want nothing to be hidden or misunderstood between us."
She gulps and nods, while also givin ghim a smile back, "I am pretty understanding, and as long as you show me your true feelings and the good reasons for what you want in a relationship. There is a good chance I will be very accepting of it. After all, mom had me ready mentally for whatever guys might be looking for with Japan's declining birthrate and everything."
Seth grins as he gives her a kiss on the cheek and says, "Good, then I am hoping for a very positive response to my questions tomorrow, and hopefully we will have a long lasting and loving relationship together."
Blossom nods and returns his cheek kiss with one of her own as she blushes and looks forward to their date and discussion tomorrow.
As he sits down by Mr. Ryu, he gives Seth a dry stare as he looks between Seth, then Blossom, then the other girls who were nearly drooling at their most handsome and strongest working man, "Now I am a happily married man, and I can be dense to some of what my wife wants from time to time, but I hope you are not so dense that you are missing all those down right thirsty stares those girls are giving you."
Seth chuckles as he drinks his water and eats his sandwich, "Nope. I see them, but only one girl over there ahs caught my eye."
With a "hmph" of acknowledgement Ryu then says, "But remember, we are a village, without the city rules, and we are more open to unique relationships. So if you end up wanting more than one wife? We would support you. Hell the Mayor has 3 wives like the old times. We are all about tradition and supporting each other. And if having multiple wives helps raise the kids and helps the household keep the chores and daily needs balanced? We say 'go for it'!"
With a thumbs up and a smile Ryu gives Seth a wide grin, Seth returns it with his own and his own decision for making a Harem suddenly has way more support than he first thought. He was happy to know that his chances of having Blossom open to having a large family with sister-wives had just shot up.
But now he had to finish the work day and enjoy the time he had with everyone.
As the work day finished, everyone got paid. And Seth's group shocked everyone at the end of the work week with the fact that every group got bonuses for clearing not just the minimum target of 5 acres in a week. But with Seth's support, they cleared 10 whole acres!
The fields would be ready for planting in another week at this rate. But for now the hard laborers would be resting at home over the weekend to spend with their families, while the single folks would continue their harvest. And the Mayor announced that the facilities for their community center would be getting a new gym, Pilates workshop, parkour room, and even a dedicated dojo for martial arts training.
Everyone cheered as they were all volunteering to help the construction crew once they got here in two weeks. Seth was at the front of that line to help make the easier access to higher tiered training equipment. And Seth even got a big shock!
His wages should have been around 380k yen. Just around 2540$ for the week of work he put in. But with the bonuses he rose up to 490k yen! He jumped to nearly 3280$!
He asked the Mayor if there was a problem and an old chuckle escaped him, "You did the most work we have seen around here in a long time young man! Keep it up and that salary will increase further! We are looking forward to your help as the strongest and fastest man in the town!"
Seth teared up a bit and promised he would continue to work hard for everyone!
He headed home and looked at his stats with a large grin. he had grown even further than he thought thanks to the boost he got from evolving his training skill. It really made the difference with his new higher stats slowing his growth.

He was greeted by Hinata at the entrance with her doing a traditional welcome home kneeling bow to him with a smile full of joy at seeing him come home from a hard days work.
She got the bath hot for him while she served them both dinner and Seth sat down to talk about the work he put in, and asked Hinata how she enjoyed her first day in his world.
They talked until at least midnight. Before they got into some sleeping kimonos and fell asleep cuddled up together. Hinata with a smile on her face, enjoying the warmth of Seth, a man who was treating her well and giving her a home to live, and a place full of kindness and peace. A place she could spread her wings and enjoy living. And also a place where she could enjoy falling in love with this man slowly. She already had a small crush from their earlier talk when she first came, and then tonight when they caught up. The domestic feeling she was enjoying gave her solid grounds to have this crush.
And feeling his solid muscles and well toned body as they slept was a nice addition. She couldn't help but notice he was solidly asleep as she whispered, "Goodnight Seth. I hope we will have a wonderful life together." Before she kissed his cheek, and then snuck a quick peck on his hard chest before blushing hard and falling asleep.
Seth smirked as his possum sleep got him that little tidbit and simply acted like he was asleep as he cuddled her closer. He felt her large D cup breasts, soft thighs, and toned stomach and arms against his body as he fought the rising in his down stairs.
Thankfully he was being pulled into the dream world as it happened, so he thought he had managed to avoid an embarrassing situation.
But Hinata felt it, looked down, and blushed neon before passing out with a single thought in her head, How is that monster going to fit inside me when the time comes?! it must be at least 7 inches! Maybe 9?! Oh god it is throbbing! Holy kami! It feels like a living bratwurst in size! He must be 10 inches!
The Heiress fell asleep with that thought in her mind and she had some.... heated dreams thanks to the 10 inch monster throbbing against her thighs as they slept.
Unknown to each dreamer, they would have very different reasons for their exhaustion in the morning.
