The System In My Head
Rewards, advancements, and platinum hits
A light blue mid-level mystery box appeared in Ben's hand. With a lucky clove that let out green smoke in his mouth, he drew...
A few seconds later, a small rolled-up white roll appeared on his lap.
[Sonya Blade Leg Grab(Skill Scroll, Consumable, Uncommon) x1 - Can be used once on selected targets to make movements automatically]
'Fighting skills?' The move sounded familiar to Ben, but he couldn't remember where it came from. It was also the first scroll skill he saw. Still, this would not help him now so he put it in his pocket and bought another mystery box before his cloves ran out.
Receiving another box in his hand, Ben did not hesitate and took his chances again...
Soon after, she held a modern elegant black leather belt with a steel buckle. He traced his fingers along it, feeling its luxurious texture.
[High Grade Skin Belt (Item, Rare) x1 - Increases the social status of the wearer by 1 to a maximum of 6]
It wasn't bad, but he doubted it would change the situation a lot now, because his social status would be too low even with that. Still, a mosquito is meat if you ignore the human blood in its stomach and risk disease...
Ben put on the belt and checked his current stats. This was probably the last chance when he saw them, so he activated the system option to show a comparison of what he started a month ago with what he has now.
[See: 2->6 - From monsters to mediocre]
'Double standard se*sis ... If I were a woman, I'd be on the rom-com getting McConaughey ...'
[Karisma: 0->7 - From trash to the middling personality of TikTok]
Ben smiles. 'Sounds good to me. TikTok exploded...I don't care if they steal all my data...'
[Social Status: 2->3(2+1) - From janitor.. to janitor with nice belt].
He shrugged his shoulders. "Magic clothes make a man."
[Application skill: 0->4 - From hand to heffer]
"Come on! It's not even accurate!" Ben suspects the system is like a bitter friend who always overestimates his girlfriend and belittles others...
[Knowledge: 4->5 - From students to students who read books]
"Well." Right."
[Virtuality: 1->5(4+1) - From hairless babies to hairy boys]
He nodded with pride. "This is a cumming story of age ..."
[Communication: 3->5 - From mumbler to blackmail]
"It's fine ..."
[Personal talent: 2->2 - From trash to trash]
"One day, I'll make you call me a treasure ..."

Although he is lacking in many places, overall, Ben realizes that he has made significant progress over the past month. He went from being completely useless to someone with a bright future...Or it will happen, if his future doesn't have a deadline tomorrow...
Looking at the data, Ben knew he had done all he could all along. "I'm just not sure if that'll be enough ..."
Removing his doubts and anxieties, Ben took a deep breath and concentrated himself. He still has a chance tonight, and tomorrow as well. The past few days, she texted the girls she was dating and also the new number she got, but the results were not very pleasant ...
All the new girls whose phone numbers he's got won't date him tomorrow. Ben guessed the time limit made him anxious and it popped up in his conversation, making the leader hesitant to meet him. Even following the three-minute rule, it did not protect her from using language and tone that broke the thirst of the girls.but she knew there was not much she could do for it; A man who walks on a board will find it difficult to have a wank...
As for the girls she dates, Annabelle is not available and Katie will still be menstruating. As for Lia, she had not responded at all since their relationship. Ben wasn't sure what happened to him. The only exception was Miyuki.
He agrees to hang out with Ben tomorrow, and even better, they plan to watch a movie in Ben's dorm room, which will be an incredible opportunity for him. The only problem is that with Miyuki's job time, she can only do it later tonight. That would cut him near the end of Ben's remaining time.
That means if it doesn't work, he may have to see the system force him to do seppuku with a butter knife...
Or kamikaze to moped-kun for self-propelled isekai...
Or a number of culturally insensitive Japanese endings... 'I just hope he doesn't make me die by slow fusion with metal...'
At this point, Ben knows the system like a jaded ex-girlfriend ... He would not miss the opportunity for ironic insults ... Despite everything, he tried to see the bright side. 'I guess it's still going to be a less abrupt end than most web novels I've read ...'
It was risky, but a date with Miyuki was his best chance, which he had to take, and it was the same case for the rest of the night.
***
Walking outside, Ben tries to pump himself out later. She thought of Katie's pretty face and what she did with it, which improved her mood, and even gave her a sudden inspiration for a song...
...
When you get what you want but not what you need~
...
When you have just gone crazy but you still can't sleep ~
...
Harem diverse~
...
As the water ma*i flows on her face~
...
Because you shoot your load at high speed~
...
When he doesn't swallow. Really in vain ~
...
What could be worse?~"
...
It was Ben's cover of Coldplay's song "Fix you."
"There's nothing like Holeplay..." Ben's composition satisfies him.
On the basketball court he passed by, a group of high school students stopped their game, and all were now staring at Ben.
He turned his eyes towards them. 'What do they want? It's better not the Corn Boy incident...'
Then, someone stood up .. and raised his hand.
*Applause*
Shortly after, the others followed.
*Translist* ...*Tap* *Pap* *Tap* *Tepuk*
A big applause! It spread throughout the basketball court like a world-deadly pandemic!
...
Then what if the quality of Ben's song was like an epidemic with death statistics identical to the flu?!?
...
Being big in the music industry is 99% marketing and media!
...
If Bill Gates were to set up a record label first, this song could be a worldwide hit!
...
Ben's eyes are glazed... "Even if I die, my existence is meaningless... Like Steve Jobs, I bring joy to the people as well as from the backs of tired and sweaty children..."
...
As Ben climbs to pick up food before coming out, his footsteps stop when he feels something moist over his nose...
He touched it and found water. Then, a loud rumble echoed in the sky. Ben looked up, and saw a cluster of thunderclouds covering the moon...
His heart became heavy with a terrible premonition. Then, his eyes lit up in anger, and he shouted to the sky.
"Don't do it, Halle Berry!"
...
It's too bad for Ben that he's not good at taking advice. Otherwise, how do you explain Catwoman?
