Glad You're A Lolicon

With anticipation, she opened the exchange interface. This was her first time freely choosing a reward, even though the reward had to be obtained through exchange. Still, it was something she earned after completing a task, right?

So far, she had only completed two tasks: one was the "Debut of the Literary Girl" main task, for which she received a "Heart of a Loli";

The other was a side task that came about two months after her literary debut, asking if she wanted to transfer to the private "Suti High School." After discussing it with her parents for a while, they decided to transfer her.

Firstly, her parents wanted her to grow up in a better environment. Secondly, she insisted on going, driven by both the motivation to complete the task and her curiosity about why the system wanted her to transfer.

This side task was not very difficult, with only a medium level of difficulty, so the reward was 300 Culture Points. However, she hadn't previously looked into the specifics of the exchange function, so she didn't know what these points could be exchanged for.

Opening the exchange interface, several options appeared, each requiring a different type of point: 1 Goddess Points, 2 Culture Points, 3 Skill Points, 4 Worship Points, 5 Dream Points, 6 Item Points, 7 Integrity Points.

She admitted she was confused because the categorization was overly detailed, completely different from the systems she had encountered before.

Most other systems only had one to three types of points, and at most some additional side task points, to exchange for everything.

But with hers, she had to see what type of points she had before she could exchange for corresponding items.

Turning her head, she looked at Ayase with big, pleading eyes, hoping she would explain the use of these points.

Unintentionally, her actions were increasingly in line with the true age of her body. Perhaps she was getting used to it, or perhaps it was the subtle effect of the "Heart of a Loli."

Of course, it couldn't be denied that she had the idea of acting cute deliberately. Using her advantages to gain benefits was normal, right?

Ayase's beautiful almond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a very satisfied smile. Clearly, Chu Lian's actions showed Ayase the results of her "training" over the past few days, which made her very happy. She began to explain seriously.

"The reason the exchange methods are so detailed is because the creator of this system wanted users to experience various tasks and choices, understand what they want, what they need to pay, and what they will get in return."

"Of course, that's his original words. My understanding is that he was bored and made these options to torture people. But undeniably, it's quite useful, as you'll soon find out." Ayase complained about the system's creator while taking off her high heels. She placed her feet on the sofa, crossing one leg and gently swinging it, the red nail polish on her toes drawing a captivating arc in the air.

Regarding this topic, Chu Lian remained silent, as she didn't know what to say.

After complaining for a while, Ayase began explaining the types of items each category of points could exchange for: "Goddess Points are based on how many people regard you as a goddess."

"Each person can generate only one Goddess Point, and once these points are used up, they cannot be regenerated. They are the most important points and one of the system's fundamentals. As to why that is, you'll find out later." It was the same line again—every time she didn't want to explain, she shifted the responsibility to that statement, which was quite frustrating.

"Goddess Points can't exchange for anything directly, but many system functions and exchanges require them. Also, they are very important because they connect all other points. Many advanced abilities require them. Additionally, every system upgrade requires Goddess Points. So, you see how precious these points are?" Ayase didn't explain further, simply repeating that some things were not yet for her to know.

"Culture Points, as I told you before, can be used to exchange for various cultural works, including movies, poems, songs, anime, literary classics, reviews, and musical knowledge."

"Knowledge exchanged, such as a poetry collection, will be permanently imprinted in your mind, allowing you to understand and use it freely. Songs you cover can also be exchanged from this category. Once exchanged, practicing a little will let you master how to sing them."

"There are many ways to earn these points. Reading a book, memorizing a poem, watching a movie, listening to a song—all can earn you points. Naturally, tasks yield the most points..." This is essential for goddess development. If a woman hasn't refined her inner self, how can she be a true goddess?

"Skill Points: These can help you learn various talents or skills you don't know, and they can also enhance your current abilities and talents."

"The only way to obtain these is through system tasks. You can't get them from the first two main tasks, but starting from the third main task, you can earn them through various branch tasks."

So, I can use these points to exchange for many talents I don't have, right? Even mastering the piano, an ordinary skill, can be exchanged?

"Worship Points: This is easy to understand. The more people who worship you, the more Worship Points you get. These points are renewable; each person who worships you can give you one point every ten days. These points are not for your personal use but are meant as a reward for those who admire and like you. Of course, they are also necessary in some special situations." This made sense to Chu Lian. Receiving affection means giving back to those who adore you, which makes you more likable. As for what those special situations might be, Ayase didn't explain, and Chu Lian didn't know how to ask.

"Dream Points: After fulfilling a dream, the wish power generated from achieving it will turn into Dream Points and return to you. These points can be used to exchange for legendary abilities. The dream you fulfill can be something you actively pursue or something you achieve unintentionally."

"Oh, by the way, the reward for the Fantasy-level task, 'Whisper of the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox,' can be exchanged here, but it requires 100,000 points. Basically, if you can't complete a Fantasy-level dream task, you can't earn that many points at once."

"These points are indeed very difficult to obtain." Hearing this, Chu Lian was slightly stunned. Even Abyss-level tasks seemed incredibly challenging; completing tasks for others would be even harder.

"Ayase, didn't you just mention a very subtle term? What exactly is wish power? You can't just say it and not explain, glossing over it as if it's nothing."

"I'm not actually stupid; I think about a lot of things. After all, the meaning behind this term isn't something that can be easily ignored, right?"

"Item Points: These are obtained based on how much money you spend, at a certain ratio. To put it simply, for every 10,000 Huaxia currency you spend, you get one Item Point."

"If your money is spent on helping others, the conversion ratio reduces to 1,000 to 1. Of course, doing bad deeds is not allowed. If you do bad things, your Item Points will be deducted at a ratio of 1 to 1."

"Item Points allow you to exchange for various items, whether from reality, anime, movies, literature, or legends."

This made sense to her. The acquisition of these points was based on how much she spent. Moreover, as long as she did more good deeds, these points would accumulate very quickly.

With these points, as long as she didn't do bad deeds, she could exchange for anything available in the item exchange list.

This felt amazing! It meant that spending money and doing what she wanted would accumulate the needed points in the system, which would then reward her with something potentially far more valuable than what she spent. Even though it was costly, it was definitely a bright path.

Ayase glanced at Chu Lian, seeing her deep in thought, seemingly calculating how to earn Item Points and then exchange them for various amazing items.

While giving her such long-term goals might seem imprudent, Ayase still smiled. This was the effect she wanted because the future was unpredictable and too far away for her to manage entirely. She was worried that Chu Lian might unintentionally go astray, so she used this method to guide her along the right path.

Even with the system's presence, it would be hard for Chu Lian to learn bad habits or become corrupted. However, human nature is easily swayed, and preventing issues before they arise is the best solution. This might also be one of the creator's goals when designing this system.

"Integrity Points: These are earned when you do things that compromise your integrity. For example, deliberately acting cute, accidentally falling and exposing your underwear, taking a photo of your beautiful legs to attract others, having your skirt fly up while dancing, making others think they will see your underwear but showing safety shorts instead, seducing the opposite sex but keeping them at a distance where they can't touch you, and so on..."

"In short, you earn these points by doing things that compromise your integrity, whether intentionally or unintentionally. Honestly, I don't know what the creator of this software was thinking, coming up with such a perverse idea!"

Talking about this point, Ayase couldn't help but complain again. Chu Lian also felt a wave of discomfort. Doing such things was just... too disgraceful. Absolutely not! She would never do it!

She couldn't admit that she actually had a bit of a mischievous side. Acting cute deliberately was a daily occurrence, and making boys think they could get close but keeping them at arm's length was something she often did to tease those who wanted to approach her.

Of course, she would never admit to this.

"Integrity Points can be exchanged for various subtly significant items, such as the 'Eastern Lover's Handbook,' 'Cat-Eared Maid Daily Photos,' 'Lolis are Justice Picture Collection'... What a mess! There's also 'Reimu's Offering Box (Note: For 100,000 yuan, I'll do anything.),' 'Yuyuko's Kimono,' 'Yukari's Worn Stockings,' 'Misaka's Safety Shorts,' 'Remilia's Majesty,' and so on..."

Hearing all these familiar and subtly significant terms, Chu Lian's face showed a strange expression. She wanted to complain but didn't know how, and holding it back was even more uncomfortable. How did these personal items or special attributes end up requiring Integrity Points to exchange?

Neither of them knew how to address this, so they tacitly changed the subject, moving on without further discussion. Although Ayase enjoyed teasing Chu Lian, that didn't mean she wanted others to see this side of her.

Chu Lian still firmly believed she was male. Even though her previous profession often involved these things, she was very resistant to adopting a female identity. Therefore, these items were really not suitable for them to discuss.

"You can check how many points you have now. The points you accumulate will stay there, but they won't notify you how many you have earned for each action. You need to check it yourself," Ayase reminded her, as if she had just thought of it. But the smile on her lips revealed that she had definitely done it on purpose!

"Knowing and not reminding me, Ayase is really full of mischief! Do all mature women enjoy teasing lolis like this?" Of course, this thought passed quickly, and she kept it to herself, not letting Ayase notice.

She opened the exchange interface again and carefully looked at her accumulated points over the past year: "Goddess Points: 378; Culture Points: 4965; Skill Points: 0; Worship Points: 2754; Dream Points: 29524; Item Points: 17; Integrity Points: 143232."

Ayase leaned over and saw her points, then burst into laughter: "Wow, as expected of a loli, you have over 140,000 Integrity Points. Oh my, how hard you must have worked to lose all that integrity. Deliberate cuteness, it's your nature, haha..."

After laughing for a while and seeing Chu Lian's expression turn to one that said, "If you keep laughing, I'll cry," Ayase finally stopped, though reluctantly, and continued, "But nearly 400 people see you as a goddess. Are they your peers or special fetishists with a thing for lolis? It's really questionable..."

"The Culture Points are alright, proving that you've at least done some serious reading over the past year. But the Dream Points... I didn't expect helping that little boy Wang Tingsi fulfill his dream would earn you so many points. It seems you were lucky that time; otherwise, it would have been impossible to complete."

Hearing Ayase say this, Chu Lian felt a bit proud, her eyes happily forming crescent shapes.

"I'm not trying to discourage you, but truly passionate learners who love reading or listening to music accumulate at least 50,000 Culture Points in a year. You barely have 2,000, so there's not much to brag about..."

Chu Lian was used to it by now. Every time she was happy, Ayase would follow up with a blow, enjoying her disappointed expression. So, she just had to get used to it...

To avoid further discouragement, Chu Lian quickly changed the topic, not wanting to dwell on it: "Speaking of lolicon, it reminds me of the song I should sing..."

After saying this, she clicked on "Culture Points" in the exchange interface, searched for "Music Songs," then "Japanese Songs," entered a singer's name, and found the song in her list: "Got it, this one, Hatsune Miku's song 'ろりこんでよかった,' exchange points: 3500."

The English translation of this song is: "Glad You're A Lolicon..."

It's hard to imagine, but if she really sang this song, her integrity points would probably drop by the thousands, if not millions, right?
