4 Point Frenzy Quest
Sounds of intense huffing and puffing could be heard escaping James' mouth. He was in the process of completing a really intense physical exercise, as he constantly moved back and forth... from one end of the park to the other at 6 AM.
Why would he be running around at 6 AM in the morning? Was he doing this for the hot soccer moms eyeing him as he trained? Unexpectedly, it was, in fact, the system that made him do this. Early in the morning, the system woke him up with a quest saying
*Ding* You received a Point Frenzy Quest!
Build up your stats to get that Movie Role! Do this every morning from 6 AM to Half past 6, every day until you get your results!
Per session, you receive 1 SP and 2 AP, as for the reward at the end of the Quest that will depend on your performance.
Better start running!
James, at the prospect of getting points, readily agreed, hopped off his bed and started running like a madman.
*Ding* Congratulations! The host has successfully completed the Quest!
*Ding* Host has been Rewarded 1 SP and 2 AP!
James opened his Stats, panting and sweating heavily, to see what options he had and carefully considered what to use his points on.

He decided to allocate all his SP to Charm and allocate the 2 AP to Appearance and the rest to Luck. James spent his points like this due to the up and coming movie and those 3 things would definitely help him in getting that crucial role.

James continuously trained in the morning for the next 4 days, earning many points in the process. He knew that once he is called about his results that this Point Frenzy Quest would end. After his morning training, James was lazing around on his Social Media when he received a phone call.
"Hello? Is this Mr Li?" The caller asked.
"Ye. I am Mr Li" James replied nervously
"Ah, Mr Li! I am Arthur and I'm calling you to tell you some good news and some bad news. The good news is that you qualified for the role of 'Andrew Anderson'. The bad news is that in order to get this role you are going to have to do an interview where we will make sure we make the right choice. The Interview is tomorrow at 5 PM. Please come" Arthur said.
"Alright. Thank you" James said.
*Ding* Host has reached the deadline for the Point Frenzy Quest!
Performance Rating: Excellent!
Reward: 10 SP and 15 AP
James was glad about the reward but at the same time downhearted about reaching the deadline for the Quest. Even though it was tough it still brought in a lot of points. The stats that he could possibly upgrade all enticed him in different ways, so, he saved them up instead.
James mind snapped back to reality and he made the choice to call Kay to inquire about the matter.
"So you got the news, James?" Kay said
"About the Interview?"
"Yeah. I pulled a few strings and got hold of some info. Originally the casting team for 'Hostage' were already planning on giving the role to a well-known actor called Noel Corrigan and only had allowed people to audition for the role of 'Andrew Anderson' just to fill in the rest of the roles.
Of course, that didn't go according to plan and since you did so well they started doubting their choice over picking Noel for the role and instead of going with you. So they decided to conduct an interview to see who fits better with the role.
Basically, this Interview is very important and there is no room for failure. Luckily I also got a hold of what the Interview will cover to help you out. Appearance wise the character 'Andrew Anderson' is quite charming and has is highly intellectual, which, will need to stand out during the film. 'Andrew Anderson' Is also quick and this is seen when he engages in a fight & chase scene. So essentially between you and Noel whoever fits this criterion more gets the role and so far things are leaning towards Noel"
"Thanks for that Kay. I knew I could rely on you" James said happily. If he never got this information, he would've charged into the interview blindly and may have even lost out on the role because of it. Fortunately, he had saved the points up from the Point Frenzy Quest.

'Improve' James thought, grinning widely. He felt like his mind expanded and was filled to the brim with knowledge and that his movements were more swift and precise. James walked over to the mirror to have a good look at himself.
"Damn!" He thought as he looked at his face. What society thought of what was needed to be 'beautiful' James instantly fell under. He even felt that his voice was more magnetic and attracting due to the Charm Stat. 'Haha! With this, I would most definitely get the Role!'
Gurgle
James felt his stomach rumbling and he'd just realized that he was very hungry. All that running and Interview fuss made him in the mood for some Spicy Wings.
As he walked to the shop, a lot of Pedestrians took second looks due to his Appearance and Charm and some passing by school girls even 'secretly' took pictures. He sent smiles to anyone who looked too long and depending on their gender, they would be either be blushing or have an awkward look but there were some who didn't necessarily follow this.
He entered the shop, ordered a mountain of Spicy Wings, and devoured them like a hungry beast attracting 'pitying' looks rather than the 'weird' looks he normally got before. James sent a ' Is there a problem' face towards them and they went back to minding their own business.
When he was done, he casually swaggered out and started to cross the road. Unfortunately, a drunk driver was speeding towards him without any signs of stopping...
