Chapter 14: Title: Bold Pervert!
"What happened? Hey, Sylvia, I brought you a high-grade Mind Tonic. Please, open the door."
Evan was totally confused as he knocked on the door, but Sylvia simply ignored him.
Dejected, he looked at Soren, who looked amused, and asked,
"What the heck happened to her?"
"How will I know? She must be a little embarrassed because of the incident."
Soren shrugged and looked perfectly fine, in stark contrast to his painful look before, his eyes involuntarily focusing somewhere in the air.
—
[Name: Sylvia Everhart]
[Class: Healer (S)]
[Level: 11]
[Status: Main Heroin]
[Chastity: Intact]
[Current Emotion: Angry, Frustrated, Slightly Guilty]
—
’Finally, that faint hatred emotion completely disappeared.’
Soren smiled slightly after seeing Sylvia’s situation. There was a reason he angered her on purpose.
Although he wasn’t a psychiatrist, he knew bottled-up emotions were a ticking time bomb.
Especially emotions like Hatred. If such a strong emotion really took root in Sylvia’s heart, he would be really done for.
That’s why he made her lose her cool and vent her emotions somehow. Of course, it worked because Sylvia didn’t have much aversion toward him in the first place.
Otherwise, would she let him molest her?
"Embarrassed? Why would she be embarrassed? In a practical class, accidents are bound to happen."
Evan didn’t know their history and gave his comment. He felt that today was just the first day, and it was normal to slip sometimes.
"Who knows what she is thinking?"
Soren didn’t want to talk to him, so he just shrugged and then suddenly grabbed the bottle out of Evan’s hand while he wasn’t paying attention.
He had been eyeing it from the beginning.
"Hey, that’s for Sylvia."
Evan quickly shouted, but Soren signaled at the door.
"Didn’t you see she is alright and wants some rest? She won’t need this."
Soren said, and before Evan could rebut, he turned around.
"Okay, I want to go to the restroom for a while. Let’s meet in the classroom."
After that, he directly left, leaving him speechless. Before Evan could even understand what happened, Soren already disappeared from his sight.
"Hey...that thing is expensive..."
He could only mumble alone, a little uncomfortably.
...
’White Bull!’
Soren looked at the brand name on the mind tonic and smiled.
’If I remember correctly, this thing costs 200 credit points. Tch... tch... Evan really spent that much on Sylvia?’
’No wonder she fell for him later.’
The academy gave them 1,000 points upon entering, and Evan used a fifth of them just to buy this drink. Soren wondered whether he was genuinely worried or if there was some other reason.
’Welp, whatever it is, it’s mine now. Haha...’
Soren looked smug as he played with the can in his hand, his mind finally returning to the prompt he received from the system earlier.

Ding!
[Congratulations! You completed the quest: Light Sneaky Touch in your own way. You can now claim your rewards.]
[Do you want to claim it?]
---
’Yes!’
---
[Congratulations!]
[You got +15 Charm, +8 Free Stat Points]
[A new Harem Candidate has been added to your Archive.]
[Current Harem Candidate: Aurelia Flareborn, Sylvia Everhart]
[Thanks to your daring approach in completing the quest, the Hidden Title Bold Pervert has been unlocked.]
[Bold Pervert: Gain +10 Charm and +5 Luck when performing risqué or provocative actions. Nearby female characters become slightly flustered and aroused, with a higher chance of conflicted reactions instead of outright rejection.]
[An extra reward will be issued because you completed the quest with the main Heroin.]
[Congratulations! You have successfully awakened the new stat: Critical Hit (Invariable Stat)]
[Critical Hit (Invariable Stat): A luck-based stat that, when triggered, deals 2 times your total damage while partially ignoring the target’s defense.]
---
’Hmm? Another invariable stat?’
This one was also linked to his luck points. Was the system hinting that he should raise his luck value?
Looking at it, it seemed pretty powerful. For example, how strong would his Artemis’ Grace be if the damage doubled?
Not to mention the title, ’Bold Pervert.’
’Well, this one is clearly suggesting to me to complete more perverted quests.’
Soren showed a defeated smile, but unlike before, he wasn’t that repulsed anymore.
’System adds two points to Luck, three points to Mana, and three points to Agility.’
Once he read all the prompts, Soren then began adding free stat points.
Unlike before, he distributed the points more carefully and didn’t just dump everything into Luck, even with a new stat.
Luck was a metaphorical thing, after all. He couldn’t just rely on it.

’Now this looks a little better. Then again, I should probably increase my level as soon as possible.’
Soren knew that his stats were barely any good, considering the elites in this Hunter Academy.
After all, the stat points you gained when levelling up were directly related to the rank of your class, and he was just a B-rank hunter.
For once, he knew that the protagonist, Evan, probably had all his basic stats above 50 points already.
Although Evan was at Level 15, three levels higher than him, Soren still would not be able to catch up. Not to mention his overpowered SSS-rank hidden skill, Sword Saint.
To be honest, this world was extremely unfair. The only way he could even get equal to those people was to complete one perverted quest after another.
"Hm? Why are you here?"
Just as Soren was making plans, a soft voice diverted his attention.
"Hm?"
He then saw Aurelia standing in front, looking at him with a slight frown mixed with curiosity.
Only then did Soren realize that while he was lost in thought, he had walked farther than he intended and somehow ended up right outside the women’s restroom, running straight into Aurelia.
’Is he following me?’
