章節 6: Training Part 2

Tim slowly removed his arm from beneath her head and walked out of the bed. He took off his t-shirt and used it to cover her body.

Looking at her, Tim clenched his fist.

Everything happened so fast that he didn't know how to respond to it. He just went with the flow and any logical person would do the same. But, now that everything has already happened, it feels like a dream to him.

'Man, I really hope this is neither a game nor a dream. Maybe my brain would start functioning normally now. Hopefully, I won't have to spend my life as I did on earth.'

'No… I won't spend my life like that. The room smelled like shit. The bed used to be covered in tissue. The Can of Energy Drinks and wrappers of junk filled up my table.'

'Not a single thread of light could pass through those curtains. Programming software, hentai, and email in google were always opened on my computer. I truly lived a shitty life.'

'Even though I was aware of that, I never tried to change. Nobody was there to help me change. I never tried to ask for someone's help to change myself. And, as time passed, I slowly drowned myself in those shits even more.'

'But, this world. I can change here. Strength is everything. If I don't train, I will be crushed. Quests and cheats, I know all of them. Even without the real currency, I can still get those skills.'

'From women to money, there is not that I won't be able to acquire here. I could do the same in the real world but I wasn't able to change myself. But here, I have already taken the first step.'

Thinking so, he looked at Yeosho and chuckled.

He turned around and sat down.

'Yes, I have already taken the first step. Second step would be gaining strength. I have already spent one hundred and fifty harem points for these two points. So, I won't be able to level up right now. Let's hope that this gamble isn't incorrect.'

He raised his hand and put the red ball that was the size of a ping pong ball inside his mouth. As soon as he ate it, the red ball started to dissolve with just his saliva.

It turned into a red stream of energy and flowed toward his stomach. Since dantian was present behind the naval, the energy had to reach there. The dantian was a space that seemed to co-exist with human body parts.

But, on the other hand, it was also not a real part of the body. When the energy reached there, it started slowly merging with it. As soon as that energy merged with his dantian, it burst out red light from his dantian.

The red light wasn't just light, it was also energy. It burst out of his mouth, his eyes, and even ears. The entire room turned red for a moment. But, then, the red light disappeared.

And, his dantian started expanding. From the small size of a pea to the size of a tennis ball. But, the important improvement was inside. The dantian is a compressed space that was modeled after the space ring from fiction.

So, unlike outer space, it could store an immense amount of energy inside. But, that's the limit dantian has. Unlike normal space rings, it could only store energy and things made out of energy.

Having his dantian expanded, he quickly took out the yellow pill and put it in his mouth. Just like the energy, this pill also started dissolving but like the energy core, it reached his stomach before completely dissolving.

And, slowly, it started turning into a stream of energy. And, this energy flowed into his veins, slowly merging with his blood streams. Meridians were a type of blood vessel that can hold the flow of spiritual energy and internal energy at the same time.

Unlike normal blood vessels, meridians were much more efficient for flowing internal energy throughout the body as well. But there was a slight problem for him.

His meridians were blocked. Unlike normal people, his meridians were not only blocked but also incredibly weak. Of course, using harem points, one can get stronger but there was a slightly different between these two kinds of strength.

The strength that a person gains through harem points is more like storing energy inside a battery. The battery was the system itself and the more harem points were used, the more energy battery would store.

And, that energy could be used for martial arts. It also did increase one's HP as it leveled up but there were some core mechanisms that the system utilized to do that without changing the character's strength.

If it was just a game, then that would have been a logical way to improve. After all, who would think of buying these things to train your body?

But now, it wasn't a game. It was real life for him. While he did have the System, he was going to live a life in this place.

He had no plan of abandoning or not using the system to level up.

But, instead, he planned to improve his strength from both ways. Because unlike in the game, he couldn't buy the skills that were required to acquire more women.

Lust, Loyalty, and Pleasure!

Those skills manipulate these three things to the core. Once these things were manipulated, a gamer can easily make a woman give up on her man and follow him.

Or, he could simply just make any girl of his age fall in love with him and share him with other girls.

It was all possible through skills but without those skills, that's impossible.

No woman would want to share their men. So, without those skills, it would be really hard to acquire more Harem Points. Thus, he didn't want to sit duck and do nothing when he can't acquire more Harem Points.

The pill was really effective. His blocked and weak meridians were slowly opening and getting thicker. At the same time, all the waste that blocked his body was released out of his pores.

He turned into a pungent-smelling man. And, the entire house was turning into a toilet as well. The smell was so bad that Yeosho couldn't sleep.

She opened her eyes and a gross smell entered her nose.

"Argh! What kind of smell is this?"

She immediately pinched her nose and looked around. She saw Tim sitting on the ground with his eyes closed and the black gu slowly covering his upper body.

But when she saw that, her eyes widened.

"Impurities! How did he manage to force out all the impurities? Wait, doesn't that mean Brother Kim would be able to train from now on?"

Suddenly, a delightful smile appeared on her face.

'That means I don't need to force my parents to accept Brother Kim. If he becomes a martial artist, my parents wouldn't even force me to marry others. Although Brother Kim is poor right now, he would certainly earn more money once he becomes a martial artist.'

'Did he realize this and do it for me?'

Her heartbeat started to go crazy. She forgot that smell entirely and covered her blushing face.

'I finally understand what happened. Brother Kim was afraid that if he confesses to me then I would have a hard time before him just like me. I was also afraid of bringing trouble to Brother Kim so I couldn't bring myself to confess to him.'

'But he must have found a way to remove all of the impurities and once he found that he could become a martial artist, he finally confessed to me. Brother Kim is so amazing. Not only he thought of his condition but also mine.'

'He must have waited for three years just like me.'

At this moment, she finally noticed the shirt that was covering her naked body, and the smile on her face only widened. She slowly stood up and wore her own clothes.

She found that her tiredness had been completely vanquished. Although she didn't get to sleep for a long time, she didn't feel tired at all. After wearing her clothes, she looked around and found a small piece of paper underneath his bed.

She also found a small black ash next to it. She knew he put these things underneath his bed. So, she put her hand on the black ash and started writing.

[Brother Kim, I will be gone for half an hour. I will return soon.]

'A few days ago, I saw a five-year-old spiritual herb on the side of the hill. If I bring it to Brother Kim, he might be able to start his training instantly. He would become strong enough to beat down those guys.'

She walked out of the house and pulled out the door. She didn't lock it since Tim was still inside.

'I need to find that herb and return back as soon as possible.'
