"What an absurdly long name, shorten it, Per Joe, and only show one at a time. It's exhausting looking at all of this."
[Connection Creation Request Notice.Do you accept the positive connection of two skills?]
[Yes/No]
"You don't even need to ask, Per Joe. If it's positive, just merge them for us to see."
[Yes/…]

[Adversity Detector Skill detected a growing energy wave in your body. This is due to the fact that you ingested several energy casings. A superficial analysis detects a favorable interrupted procedure.]
At first, little Joe thought it was simply an invasion of privacy, but after reflecting on it, he concluded that it was so serious that even the integrated systems in his body joined forces to inform him of what he was suffering from.
"Per Joe, what could that interrupted procedure you mentioned be?"
[A movement used by a martial artist to change and reduce the energy flow. It was beneficial for you. I, the Per Joe system, do not understand why you stopped the procedure.]
"It must've been my father who took care of me. I stopped, Per Joe, because he disappeared. He was kidnapped, and no one ever saw him again."
Wiping away a few tears, he continued.
"But setting that aside, how can I improve from this problem? Is there a cure? Oh, and rename that skill to D-Tecta."
⬆️on 🙎♂📱🔍 [...'..'...'....'...'....'...'...'...'...'...'>>><<<...]
[D-Tecta recommends that you find a way to reduce this growing energy, or each time will be worse than the last until your body can no longer withstand the energy and disintegrates in a massive explosion.]
O(⊙_⊙)O Joe's shocked expression.
"What can I do?"

D-Tecta completely malfunctioned, and even the Per Joe system shut down its screen, leaving little Joe perplexed and without an answer.
"Sime Status."
[Finally decided to look for me.]
"I'll be straightforward with my questions, so don't drag out your answers. Do you know my problem, and is there something you can do for me?"
[Yes, yes.]
"So can you heal me, or at least stop the pain?"
[No and yes.]
"Are you sure you can't heal me? I thought you were the best?"
[If you thought so, why did you create Per Joe?]
"To be the least that you couldn't be."
It might've been a lie, but the speed at which little Joe responded made Sime seem to accept the answer as truth.
"What can you do to help me? I'll level up my skills, get super rich, and I'll pay you in gold, tons of gold."
[Gold to me is like an adversity. My system can't even handle its presence. Why would I want that? Do you want your adversity to turn into gold, by any chance?]
Little Joe thought for a moment and figured maybe that could be a good opportunity to profit from his pain.
"Just tell me what you can do for me and what you want."
[I will trigger 🔓 your cells 🧬 by directing 🌫 the excess energy 💥 toward an attractor x 🍖, and thus the eggs 🥚 that you will lay in the future will undergo a modification ♨, and your adversity will take on the composition of an adversity of your choice 👍 or, if you prefer, gold ☀. As for me, I only want 10 million XPs for a small but significant advancement 💰.]
Little Joe had gotten excited at first, though the idea of laying eggs would still be humiliating, at least they'd be gold.
[You seem sad. Don't worry, I won't charge everything at once. You can pay me bit by bit. I know I'm corrupted and not much help, but I'll give priority to Per Joe, and I won't be any threat to him.]
"Hey Sime, if I manage to gather XPs with your useless skills, do I get any discounts?"
[Of course! For every XP earned through useless skills, I'll give a 30% discount. So 10 million XP would only be 7 million.]
That wasn't a small discount, and little Joe already had some ideas on how to profit from it.
[Get me at least 1,000 XPs per month, and over time, I'll give you some more discounts. As for the XPs, just integrate me with Per Joe. With each upgrade, those XPs will count toward my payment.]
"So, do we have a deal?"_ asked Joe, excited.
[Yes, we have a deal. The process will be done when you sleep tonight. Tomorrow you'll be able to enjoy your new condition. But before that, I need you to use the pearled gold nugget as a reactive product. Before bed, drink a mug of water in which the nugget has been soaked for at least 10 minutes, but no longer, or you'll be poisoned.]
Little Joe had almost forgotten about that nugget his friend Dimmy had given him.
"Hey Sime, why didn't you ask for the pearled gold nugget when you requested the signet ring and the prism 3? My father used to say this is the purest and most expensive of all golds. But you didn't even mention it that day."
[To me, that's the lowest composition of elements humans use. It's even inferior to chicken manure. But if you like it, it's only fair that you keep it in exchange for your adversity.]
"Ugh... Shut up, Sime!"
Little Joe shouted, almost regretting his deal.
