System's Status and Shop Section

"I can take this in two ways—one, you just uttered a lot of bullcrap. Or two, you only think of your secretary as someone who'd inconvenience you if she got sick, now which is it?"

CEO Yang Li had many plausible answers to give to the Panda-like creature floating above him, but he simply smiled lightly. "You can believe whatever you want to believe." Before it could utter back a reply, the man's footsteps padded down the hallway as he made his way to his bedroom.

He hoped that the creature would at least give him some privacy as he heard the door shut. He changed into his home clothes and rubbed his face. Due to the events that occurred today that changed his life, Yang Li wanted to get some time to rest and fully assess his situation. He hadn't been able to fully comprehend it earlier. He glanced towards the suitcase left on his desk table and unlocked it—he took out the documents he had printed out earlier.

Yang Li didn't want to explain to his secretary why he had them in the first place so he had hidden it.

Now as he shifted through the papers, he did it to find other more substantial information regarding Systems and their other available features. The Panda creature was uncooperative, to say the least. "And prone to outbursts." Yang Li rubbed the back of his head. He wasn't sure what had hurt more—the mere fact that a small creature had hit him or when he hit his head when his chair fell down. To him, it didn't make sense to look for ideas and resources that only contained Cultivation. It was only through adequate research and experimentation that he'd be able to survive this ordeal he received.

"All to entertain the Heavens? What is this… some kind of reality tv show?" Yang Li shook his head until he found the specific lines in an old web novel he had read before. It was, of course, cross-checked with other System Novels, and he looked for the similarities in them.

And one of them was this.

'Status'

It was there that a screen hovered in front of the protagonist, a blue screen similar to that of an old-style RPG game—it contained every relevant information about them!

[ Evaluation ]

A regular mortal living in the earthly plane. Due to the current time and age that one is currently living in, one does not have a single trace of harmony to the path of Dao. Despite living in the nation where cultivation began—you have no roots, no affinity to a specific element, and the normal path of cultivation is unimaginable. The Host is an insignificant being if not for the System.

He took it all in without complaint and focused on something else. "Hmmm…How many Charm Points do I have currently?"

[ Current Charm Points: 75 Points ]

[ Receive Quest Reward? ]

"Yes."

[ You Have Gained 10,000 Charm Points! ]

[ You Have Accomplished The Quest Without Fully Adding The Target To One's Harem, So The Number of Charm Points You Gained Is Decreased By 75% ]

[ You Must Need To Add Target To Harem To Fully Embark on Harem Cultivation Path ]

[ Deducting Charm Points… ]

[ Current Charm Points: 2575 Points ]

"...I see." CEO Yang Li frowned at the decrease of points but decided to take it as it was. He had no complaints about it as it was much better for him if his secretary didn't get involved with this. "Is this the punishment that creature has been speaking of?" Shaking his head for a moment as he placed down the documents. He summoned the next portion of the System.

Yang Li assessed the available items in the shop with much scrutiny and found that most of them were something he could buy—but he had to forgo another thing. But considering that some of the things like Roots, Constitution, and Bloodline were things that he currently didn't have—he was left with a few things that might be useful. "I can buy the scripture with some charms, or I can immediately start the first stage of Harem Cultivation at once."

"Or if you had the balls to do it—get the mystery box." The Panda appeared out of thin air and gave him a smug look.

The man furrowed his brows. "Ah, you were here the entire time?"

"That's not important, is it?"

"I have my privacy."

"Argh! So are you actually going to buy something or what?" The creature sneered at him. "Must suck knowing you initially had ten thousand at your disposal, but it went poof due to your negligence."

"Indeed?" Yang Li nodded. "And there is no chance for me to go back and retake this Quest, is it?"

"No more. You wasted your chance to add her to your harem—even if you try to do it now, it won't recover you the points already lost. And you won't even get any quests related to her anymore, so you can look back on your faults and do better on the next quest."

The man turned to the screen and stifled a smile. If there were no chances of his secretary getting involved any longer… that was enough to ease the trouble he had. "I see… so what is this Attraction Charm?" It was much better to not appear too pleased about this for his sake.

"Ask the System and not me! I don't have to explain every single thing to you."

"Mhmm."
