Chapter 251 The aning of manliness. The peening of personal talent.
When Ben got back ho from BJJ class, he passed right out. Although, it wasn’t so much his body that was tired, but his mind. Coming up with such wet burns was no easy feat. It took strenuous ntal effort to spot the resemblance between the face of a random guy in BJJ and Cardi B’s kneecaps.
...
It was all worth it though. When Ben woke up, he was in a great mood because it was ti to review how his stats had developed.
During the week, not wanting to jinx it, he avoided checking them. Yet, he believed they should’ve received a significant boost due to the mid level stat growth multiplier for manliness, as well as the Dojo event.
[Special Event: Dojo Mojo - 30% bonus to stat developnt in the Dojo for the next 7 days]
With 30% on top of 100x, Ben’s gains...were substantial!
[Looks: 6 - Charlie Brown’s bi-curious cousin.]
...
"Ok, not this one..."
Ben shook it off though. His mind swam in insults all day, making him immune for the ti being. "Poison? I was born of this..."
[Charisma: 8 - The charisma of Freddie rcury...in a truck-stop bathroom]
...
Ben squinted. "That could be considered...good?"
It seed like a place where old Freddie would’ve been leadership material...
[Social Status: 6(5 1) - Would receive modest respect...in a truck-stop bathroom]
...
’What’s with the truck-stop the today? Did she get paid to do an ad for Tim Horton’s?’
[Seduction Skills: 7 - Recently failed in seducing a group of n in an MMA gym’s locker room]
Ben shot up out of bed and pointed at the screen. "Slanderous! Inaccurate! They tried seducing first!"
...
[Knowledge: 6 - Knows the ins and outs, of truck-stop glory-holes]
"Co on!!!"
...
Ben sighed. He was actually a bit jealous, because he believed whatever roadside fast-food chain sponsored the system, they were getting more than their money’s worth...
In addition, why was he not getting a fee?
[Manliness: ( 1)8 - The hardest guy at a Miley Cyrus concert]
This one made Ben smile. He’d accept it because that ant he’d probably be getting head from Miley Cyrus...
That’s about all it took...
Plus, this was now his second stat to reach an 8! He reached his goal!
Although he avoided looking at his stats during the week, he did notice so changes within himself as the days passed. His voice beca a little deeper, his muscles bulged a little, and although it could’ve been his imagination, he even thought his hair beca thicker. Now, he understood the cause. These were all effects of higher testosterone!
It was due to his manliness increasing!
It wasn’t easy getting the stat from a 7 to an 8 either, requiring the equivalent of 2 years of progress by using a 100x multiplier. In addition, when he thought about what it would take to reach a 9, Ben frowned, because he couldn’t even estimate the necessary effort. For now though, this was enough.
[Communication: 7(6 1) - A real whore-whisperer]
He shrugged. "I’ll take it."
[Personal Talent: ( 2)5 - Skilled at positioning himself on top of sweaty n]
Reading this, Ben bead! Not the description...but the 2!
"She’s talking about BJJ right... Yea, she’s gotta be talking about jiu-jitsu..." Ben didn’t care about the "implication," because he was too ecstatic from this pleasant surprise! Although he guessed it might happen, he wasn’t sure if personal talent would increase as well. Now, for the first ti, this stat didn’t make him feel ashad! At least, not the number!
Although the multiplier only enhanced manliness, improving so much in one activity sotis impacted other stats, and in this case, it worked on personal talent. The 30% from the Dojo event also affected all his stats, so this result was reasonable.
Besides that, since the stat increased now, a question erged in Ben’s mind. He beca good at BJJ, but his ability was still low level compared to the many students with higher belt colors. Although his other skills weren’t anything spectacular, he believed when it ca to cursing and playing video gas, his level relative to others on a global scale was higher. So why did BJJ, which he was worse at, increase personal talent to a 5 now?
Ben decided it was a good chance to ask the system for clarification, and perhaps due to being in a good mood from receiving a certain advertising endorsent...she responded.
The personal talent stat gave different weights to talents depending on how attractive the system judged they’d be to the overall female population.
A high stat in that category ant one possessed skills the majority of won would find desirable. With these words, Ben now understood. While one could be a genius at cursing or Dota 2, and there might be so girls or subterranean trolls out there that would appreciate it...that didn’t apply to the larger segnt of won. anwhile, being good at sports and other popular fields would have a wider appeal.
It all made perfect sense considering the system’s overall frawork centered around seduction. In fact, Ben felt BJJ and MMA were still niche as far as sports went. It was only that the ability to fight was sothing won found attractive due to the hard-wired nature of humans to get into physical struggles. Thus, strength ant the power to defend one’s family and resources. It was important even in today’s age since fights and cri were still existent.
Now, Ben put everything together. He understood that this was why many won desired guys who were large, muscular, and tough. Those n made them feel safe.
For him though, it was a bit of a dilemma, because Ben didn’t fit into that category, not being able to compare to tall bulky n. Yet, he believed in himself, because he had the power of personality on his side, and his personality was such that he’d c*ckpunch them to bring them down to his level.
...
Satisfied with his stat upgrades, Ben checked the rest of his information.
——————
PUA Points: 38000
Equipped Title: Poison Dragon
Unequipped Titles: C*ckpuncher, Virgin Surgeon, M.D
——————
[Current Hearth Tower Ranking: 691]
——————
[Base Bloodline: Human]
[Bloodline Enhancents: Elite Human 1: Personal Talent Max Potential 1)]
Nothing much changed except one thing that Ben found interesting—his Hearth ranking. It worsened a little from 682 to 691. After thinking about it though, he understood why; If he could climb up the corporate tower, others could as well, and that made him realize sothing else: there would be competition...
Still, it wasn’t the ti to focus on that, since he was only getting into the groove of his new job. When it was ti to move up, he’d launch himself with full force. At the mont though, as far as work was concerned, he was looking to make lateral moves, in a bed with Tina or Laura.
