The System In My Head
The invincible opener
Making major changes to one's appearance is very challenging. Just ask Caitlyn Jenner...
In fact, compared to all the other stats, appearances were the hardest to improve. Without any magical interference or extensive surgery, you could say it had a hard hat. Charisma, seducing skills, knowledge, or anything else can increase with time and effort, but is it noticeable?
Even going to the gym only improves your body. There are still height, face, and other important features. Appearance is the most important status for dating, but it is also the most difficult to improve. It will keep happening until someone finds a dumbbell to the face...
However, Ben found a way to improve his appearance, even without a treadmill for his forehead...
Actually, Ben did not pick the low hanging fruit. Choosing a suitable haircut and stylish clothing is what most people achieve in their age. He failed to do so until now for two reasons.
First, he discriminated against the barber...
Second, he's busy with 360 no-scoping noobs...
It was only because of the threat of death, but the boy turned into a man. Everyone has a time where they have to put childish things, where the xbox turns into a sexbox...
For Ben, that time is now. Well, not now, but soon. He was still standing in the middle of the sidewalk, so excited that he swung his grocery bag like a madman...
In Ben's sense, he distilled the curses of passing pedestrians as praise and applause! He's soaring!
A 6 in appearance was nothing special, but he crossed the line into the top half of the population. With slow steps, he moved forward. Ben believes that as long as one keeps moving forward, and does not stop, one day they will reach a tipping point, and things will change.
After one last swing in which he nearly snared the bike courier, Ben took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
The appearance improvement helped, but he still had a daunting task in front of him. He was standing on the edge of a huge canyon, and unless he wanted to die, before the 7 days were over, he had to start running...
Ben found something interesting. 'It seemed like some real-world items had hidden stats. I think it makes sense. If one were to drive a Lamborghini, it would raise their social status without a doubt. Although many system items are special because they have bonuses or unnatural magical properties.'
"Yo, are you done?" Antonio put down his camera after the show was over.
"What are you doing?" ask Ben.
"Oh, when you became a full Zoolander, I started filming. You know .. for memories."
Ben didn't think much about it. "Whatever. I'm gonna drop this off and then we're gonna go to the bars?"
"Lit. The same place?"
"...No, let's go to a new place." There are a few things about the system that Ben wants to confirm and he has to go to a new bar for that.
The two return to Ben's dorm, where he climbs upstairs to drop off his bag, while Antonio waits in the lobby. It isn't long before Ben learns that certain videos find their way to social media. It's called "Shlomo's Shopping Spree."
It showed a young man leaving the store to a crowded street then swinging his bag like a chicken on a bath salt ...
It's a few minutes long...
Ben said he would flap his wings and he achieved his goal!
That will be the end, unless the store brand picks it up and passes it on to all of its social media, with the slogan "Birds mode! Clothes that fit well, will make you aerodynamic!"
#Birdmode is trending...
The Birdmode challenge hit Instagram and TikTok...
That's how a brand new icon was born. Viewers make direct comparisons to historical legends...Jared from Subway...Bill Cosby of jello...Ben is among the greats!
She reached the edge of being an E-list celebrity and no one knew her real name!

"Dirty bourbon." It was the name of the bar that Ben and Antonio were using for now. Ben stared at the ground while waiting, his mind swirling with conjecture.
Ben hands over Benny BeVito's trusted ID. It worked without fail, and Ben stepped in to verify his hypothesis.
*Unz**Unz*Unz*Unz*
The music swept her like a Jersey Jagerbomb, but she ignored it because she was waiting for something. He looks around. He went further inside. No. gabe.
"What's wrong with you?" ask Antonio.
Ben blinked and shook his head. "No. Let's go to the bar." But something's wrong. 'Why don't I get a dungeon warning?' Ben had guessed that when he entered the bar for the first time last night, it unlocked the dungeon system that would work in other bars as well. Now he knows that's not the case. 'So is there anything special about Domina? What're those?' Pondering intensely, he leaned against the bar, staring at the wall with a smoldering gaze.
The bartender looked at him, following Ben's gaze to the liquor rack. 'Other raging alcohol drinkers ...' He shook his head.
After a minute, Ben sighed. 'I don't know. It must be an S&M theme, or another troll of the dungeon system. Forgetit.' Out of nowhere, a bottle of beer slid before Ben's face.
He turned his head towards his origin to see Antonio sipping a beer, and then gave it away.
Ben was silent for a moment. "I only tried wine on a few occasions during holidays with family ..."
Antonio smiled. "Alcohol is a social lubricant. Have you heard that? One or two drinks are good for loosening. In fact, you have to be careful. Drown in it and the downside becomes much worse than the upside. Tell me if you agree. 'not feeling well. Don't drink too much! Understood?"
Ben nodded, picked up a beer, took a sip, and raised his eyebrows. That's an interesting taste. He smiled back at Antonio and they clinked the bottle to cheer. "I won't!"

"She drank too much ..." Antonio shook his head.
They're out on the road now. Ben pointed and shouted his new hangover opener at the random woman.
"I'll fuck you! ...I'll make love to you! ...I'll make love to you! ...No, you're good. ...And I'll FUCK you!"
"He only drank two beers ..."
Antonio didn't understand how he could be so light. They're outside now because security expelled Ben after the incident.
There's a woman at the bar. If Antonio had to judge him, he would give him about 4. After 1 beer, Ben approached her and said, "I've had a little drink, and you're starting to look really good... "
That didn't work.
After 2 beers, Ben came up with what he considered to be an "Invincible Opener." He approached her again. On this occasion, he put his hand into his drinking glass, took everything inside, and smashed it into the ground!
"What are you doing?!?" he yelled.
"Cracking the ice ..."
...
He nags, "His name is Ben...Want to be split in two on a bastard?"
***
Security didn't understand either, so now they were outside.
'Oh, fuck. What is he doing now?' Antonio watched the doorman in front yell at Ben to leave. Ben walked towards her with a guilty expression as if he was going to defend his case.
As Antonio prepared to pull her, his eyes widened. 'Did he just knock that guard?!? ...And now Ben ran here.and now his guards are running here!"
"Fly, fool!" Ben yelling.
