Question about the invoice system and consumption tax (freelancer)

I’m working as a 業務委託 animator here. Started from April this year.

After sending my April invoice to my client, two things occurred that I am not sure what to do about:

1) I got 110% of my contract money due to a 10% of 消費税.
As far as a read, I don’t really need to pay any consumption tax “back” as long as my yearly income doesn’t go over 1000man. Is my understanding correct about this?
And do I calculate my taxes based on this 110% salary or just on 100%?

2) The client asked me this as a “by the way” type of question:
“What are you doing in terms of the invoice (system) right now?”
And I’m…not doing anything about it because I really don’t understand what the point of it is in my case…
Do you need to register under the invoice system as a freelancer or no? And how can it affect you and your income?

I’m still figuring this out as I’m super new to this, so I’m sorry if these questions are super basic. Any help is greatly appreciated!
