Interest

"That's actually pretty sick," Conrad thought as he laid back in his chair, completely ignoring the many eyes that were on him. "And what, 3/10? So I can get seven more women? Am I supposed to catch them all or something?" 

He laughed to himself as he went back to finish looking through his system notifications. 

[Introductory Quest - Orientation(3)]

[Increase Any Target Affection By 10] 

[Difficulty - F] 

[Reward - System Store Unlocked] 

[Introductory Quest - Orientation(3) - Complete]

[System Store Unlocked] 

"And what do we have here?" Conrad went back to the menu and opened up the store.

[System Store] 

[Loot Box - 10SP]

[Locked] 

[Locked]

The same pattern repeated itself in the store, all but one option being locked. 

"I don't even know what SP is so this is a bust." 

Conrad returned to his inbox, two more quests glowing with a green tick above their names. 

[Introductory Quest - Orientation(4) - Complete]

[Bring a Target to climax] 

[Difficulty - F+] 

[Reward - Newbie Title - Loot box (3)] 

[Title - Newbie - Gain 1SP Per Day Repeat] 

"Well that answers that," Conrad said as he figured out where he could get SP from. Tapping on the letters they expanded to System Points, something that he assumed would be the standard currency. "What's the last quest then?" 

[Event Quest - People Pleaser]

[Perform A Sexual Act In Front of 10 People or More]

[Difficulty - E+] 

[Reward - Rose (2) - Performer Title] 

"What the fuck man!" Maxwell Skimmington rushed over to his desk before he could read further into his new gains. "What is this I hear about you having sex with the manager!?" 

"Oh that?" Conrad smiled, boasting about his achievements. "It's nothing special, I just bent Jane over her desk and fucked her doggy style." 

"No way!" Maxwell looked astonished, kneeling before him as if he was a master. "How on earth did you get with a goddess like that? Please teach me! I'll do anything!" 

Conrad was about to dismiss the man, not wanting to deal with him. However another quest window appeared. 

[Introductory Quest - Orientation(5)]

[Accept this Worker into your fold] 

[Difficulty - F-]

[Reward - Worker(1)]

"Worker huh?" 

"What did you say?" Maxwell asked, confused as to why Conrad stared off into space and then started mumbling something about Workers. 

"Don't worry about it," Conrad dismissed, and smiled at Maxwell like a predator. "I accept your request, let's see where this leads." 

"Thanks! You wont regret it!" Maxwell was overjoyed, a perverted smile covering his face. Not that Conrad intended to share any of his women with the man. No. Worker. They were all for him, he did not like or intend to share. 

"Lets see if you will or not," he accessed the new Worker menu in the system to see what it could do. "Stay quiet for a moment." 

[Current Workers - 1/10]

[Maxwell Skimmington - Loyalty 5/100]

[Workers Are Able to Perform Menial Tasks in Place of User. Increase Loyalty to Unlock Further Uses] 

Conrad clicked on Maxwell's name, a menu of tasks he could perform showing up. 

[Worker - Maxwell Skimmington] 

[Basic Tasks - Can Perform Basic Instructions] 

[Daily Work - Earns User SP Based Off Current Loyalty - Worker Becomes Locked When In Effect] 

[Increase Loyalty to Unlock Further]

"Woah, this is cool." Conrad said to himself, completely disregarding the man knelt before him. Why should he care what his Workers thought? So long as their loyalty remained he could care less about how he treated them. "Fetch me a coffee will you?" 

"Right away," Maxwell got up and went about his task without question. 

"I could get used to this. And he can earn me SP, this is fantastic." Now that he was alone again he went back to tallying his rewards, this time looking through a newly unlocked menu. 

[Inventory] 

[Loot Box (3) - Provides Random Reward]

[Rose (2) - Increase Target Interest]

"Rose huh? So I could spam a woman with roses and then be able to get in her pants? That's easy?" He dreamed for a second that it would be so simple, however as he opened the item's description further he realised it wasn't so simple.

[Rose - Increase Target Interest]

[Difficulty E - +1 Interest]

[Difficulty D - 0.5 Interest]

[Difficulty C - +0.1 Interest]

"What even is that last number?" Conrad scratched his head. He couldn't even comprehend the number of roses he would need to increase the fabled EX rank by even a single interest point. "Such a woman must be an angel or something." 

He felt discouraged that he wouldn't be able to so easily cheese his way into women's skirts, however he put such thoughts aside, deciding to cheer himself up by opening his three boxes. 

"Come on baby, gimme something good." 

[Loot Box (3)] 

[Opening….] 

[Rewards]

[Rose - Rose - Trash] 

[Trash - Trash - Trash] 

[Trash - Rose - Earring] 

"Fuck!" Conrad loudly cursed, making the people working around him jump. "What is this bullshit? Trash trash and fucking trash!?" 

He went to look for the trash item in his menu only to find that it really was trash, the item automatically deleting itself. At least he got something though, three roses and an earring. He opened up the earring's item page, its use was the same as a rose, with all the diminishing returns and all. However it was as effective as five standard roses, giving +5 interest when used on a difficulty E target. 

"Five roses and a Earring. Might as well find an E rank to use them on." Conrad said as he scanned the room, looking for a target that fit the rank. However most of the common employees were ranked as F, even if the items would be more effective Conrad didn't want to waste his time with such basic looking people. 

He decided to go for a walk around the office in search of his new prey, the rumours of his encounter with his manager Jane preceding him. 

"That's him right? The one that had sex with the second department manager?" 

"Yeah I think that's him. What a crazy bastard, doesn't he know he's going to be fired for doing that?" 

Conrad smiled as he heard people talking about him. If it was an ordinary day he might be worried, however come morning none of this would have happened, and he could do it all over again if he wanted.
