Chương 8: 08 - There is no Frigate like a Book To take us Lands away.
"A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies . . . The man who never reads lives only one." George R.R. Martin (American novelist and short-story writer, screenwriter, and television producer. He is the author of the series of epic fantasy novels A Song of Ice and Fire, which was adapted into the Emmy Award-winning HBO series Game of Thrones) has said it in the past.
Therefore here I am, I think. In front of the largest book store in this town, Asakura Book Complex (ABC). This is the very place for player to get their material for study in order to increase your academic abilities (learning skill). Actually, most players will make large purchase in this store first, unlike me who cheated with money lottery, so they can prepare for the coming school curriculums. Inside this store, there are lots of books available for purchase, and some of them are important to me.
The store got plenty of interesting books to player to choose - you can see the books filling the shelf, almost countless. Like always, I didn't have to waste my time for searching the book from the bookshelf, but only browsing the big tablet that near the cashier counter like other store, and starting my shopping. There are plenty of choice for me to pick, but I already planned ahead and just straight away clicking the button link to the titles and sections of its. The things that I put in my virtual cart are;
1. 12 Reference books (4 subjects - all years) - 1200 Pina (all learning skill buff)
This is the important thing if I wanted to increase my learning skill. Actually, you don't need to buy all, rather only for the year that you been studying, but buying all of the them in one set will grant you the learning buff, all +5, which is quite good and you can save time for it. 'Study' will consume plenty of your time (auto training mode), so this is a good step to let you more on focusing your football training with spending more energy on it.
2. The stationeries and the necessities for school - 800 Pina (Good quality)
Actually, no whatever special or beneficial of buying this product, even with the quality stuff, but this purchase only for the school preparation purpose. Like I said, I never have any chance to go to school like normal people, thus this opportunity make me feel so excited and I wanted to experience what the normal teenagers would do when they preparing for the coming school days. I pick all the expensive and branded stencils, that cost me plenty of money but I didn't care.
3. The Book of Guidance (4 subjects) - 40,000 Pina - (10,000 per book) (extra learning buff)
This is actually the most expensive books in this store and the cheating purchases for me because its granted you more better buff that the first buying products (+10 for all learning skill). This book eventually will sold out later after the player entered the third years of high school, so most players in the game desperately collecting money in order to buy it as soon as possible. Buying this book will actually lead to one girl bangable character appear in early stage of game.
"Are you preparing for the coming exam?" This is the person that I'm talking about. Asakura Yoru, a girl with braided hair and spectacle as her features, is the sole captureable character (yet not the heroin) that appear in this training arc timeline unlike other player. She make her appearance, talking to me, as the shopkeeper attending her customer. She is the daughter of the Amamiya family, who own this store. Moreover, her family actually one of the big families that have their own territory but unexpectedly, her father choose not to live in their region but to transfer here and open his own business. Although she look like typical plain girl type, but when you bang her, later on, she will change her hair style and wear contact lens, becoming a beauty. No, she won't change much like some hentai manga, where the girl fall in dark life as she turn into whore after changing her style. I hate that manga as well as loved it. Surprisingly, she already enter the acquaintance level of intimacy, 30 affections, after I scouted her with my special spectacle.
"Ah, no but I make early preparation to enter school after being accepted in football trial..."
"You, a football player...? Ops.. I'm sorry for saying that, but seeing you physically, I never knew that you actually an athlete..." She bowing her head, after saying what she thing aloud.
"You will never know, hahaha..." I just laugh at the words, as she actually got the point there. My physical stats is too low, so unlike my previous life, a fatty, in this world, I quite thin and you might say that I just like the people with nutrients deficiency condition. Well, after 1 month, that condition will change without doubt, thanks to the cheat!
"If you that confident, I pretty sure we will be at the same high school in coming month, maybe a classmate while on it!" She smile happily, while didn't know that what she has been said will eventually come true. She didn't realise that I will bed her later, lol.
"Sure, thanks... I feel confident with your words..." I give her a big thumb, and suddenly her affections increase one (31). I just remember that in the game, she can be conquer by visiting the library and do some small simple talk to gain the intimacy point, but it seems that I can do that by interacting with her in this store. What a nice discovery!
"Your welcome... You sure like to buy books huh?"
"Nah, much like other normal person. I need this books for my own benefit!" I'm answering the question with humble tone.
"May I introduce you to other interesting books that could enter in your eyes?" She still in work mode, saying the words.
"Sure, why not?" The rich man like me will not rejected her.
"Ok, wait a bit...." She clicked the button at the interface of the big tablet and enter the special books page.
"Wait, what?" The listed books at appear to my sight shocked and actually those products known to me in the game;
_____________________
1. Book of Friendships - 10,000 Pina
2. Book of Prediction - 10,000 Pina
3. Art of Striker - 10,000 Pina

"What happens....?" Asakura Yoru startled with my sudden yelp.
"No, nothing. I just surprise that the books actually sold here..." I encountered the books in my past life, of course when I playing this damn game. Actually the books that in the list are the prizes that given to the MVP (most valuable player) in Sports Day event in the my future school. To win the MVP, you must lead your class winning the football competition (the most important one) in the school. Using save and load method, I've managed to win myself that title in every Sports Day each year of my high school time, giving me chances to grab those books free of charges. The first book increase your Teamwork attribute - the special prize for the Sports Day in my first year. Likewise, the second one, buffing Positioning stats, and the last one to increase the First Touch skill. I can have those for free but why wait? Thus, I willing to spend again!
"Oh, you actually know this books? It quite rare and always sold out within a month time. We actually have only one copy of each books in the list, and will replaced it after being sold with another rare books in the next month. By the way, the books will be different one but same rarity, while a good collection and reading too...." She explains it with happy tone, knowing her hobby is reading. We interacting each other now like we been friends forever.
"Done, I made my mind and buy it....!" I clicked the purchase link to buy those books. With the money I have, I didn't have any trouble to buy it. Asakura Yoru startled again, this time with my spontaneous purchase, but this time, didn't make a weird face.
"Are you sure, that quite expensive you know?" She actually worried about my financial situation, because of the price amount.
"No problem, here my card..." I handed my card to make payment.
"Grand total of all of your purchases are 72,000 Pina. Do you want us to deliver the items or take it by yourself?"
"Please deliver it..."
"Thanks for your purchases!" She return back my card with happy face.
"Thanks... By the way, my name is Jimi, Jimi Shujinko. Nice to meet you..."
"Mine is Asakura Yoru, please to make acquaintance...." I know your name actually. Ah, I remember one more important thing - an event, the mysterious one that give you bonus learning stats if you encounter it and manage to answer, a shady guy who will ask you the Go (board game) solving questions!
"Miss Asakura, do you know a old man sitting in front of your shop and playing the Go only with himself?"
"Ah, that's my eldest uncle actually. He always playing alone at the Sunday morning, enjoy his retired life solemnly. You can play with him if you want..."
"Okay, I willing to company your uncle though..."
"Nice... I gladly welcome it...."
"Well, that's for today. Good luck with your exam, miss Asakura...."
"Good luck to you too, for your trial!" She waived her hand, really enjoying our meeting, so am I, so am I.
Finally, the long shopping yet in short time ended with few good founding and encounter. I really glad that I manage to gain money for my conquest route, and becoming a superstar in football, well to rope the main character, Amamiya Ayase!
