I just stared at the notification in front of me. I couldn't think of anything, I just stared at it.
After a while... my lips involuntarily curled upward. My eye twitched slightly and I tried hard not to laugh.
If this had happened before, I would have gotten angry and begged the stat to stop rising all the time. Now that I knew I would have even more problems, I would have hated it even more, isolated myself even more.
Not that I didn't feel them, of course. I would have preferred my other stats to go up. Charm was still the last thing I wanted to rise up.
But... it wasn't actually such a bad thing. Especially here, in this very dungeon.
Because the new way I found to get stronger didn't just raise the charm statistic, it also strengthened my body. And in doing so, it was benefiting from the effect of the charm in the first place. And a higher statistic meant I could do it more effectively.
Thanks for reading :)
