— Wow, is that even possible?
.
— I initially thought it was clickbait until I clicked on it haha
.
— Wow, he looks so handsome!
.
— fake
.
— The video is edited. I almost fell for it and almost gave the video a like just because a cute boy is in it but nice try lol
.
— obviously fake
.
— A boy can't move like that. At first I thought it was real, but you went overboard with the editing.
.
— I can't see any signs of editing anywhere, so it could be real.
.
— Even if it hasn't been edited, it's staged... the boy looks like he's still in school, and he's fighting an adult woman, I wish it were real too lol.
.
— Look closely, the redheaded woman isn't even trying to defend herself. I've never seen a guy make those kinds of movements, but they should be doable, even with a male physique.
.
— Exactly! The woman isn't even trying to defend herself; in a real fight, she would have won easily.
.
— She didn't fight back and let a handsome young guy kick her in the face... I want too...
.
— There are people who would pay money for that, and she got it for free... jealous...
.
— Regardless of whether the video is real or not, he is definitely boyfriend material.
.
— Yes, he is so handsome.
.
— Can we stop arguing about whether the video is real or not and just talk about his appearance instead please
.
— jealous
.
— I want a boyfriend like him.
.
— Please God let the video be real...and if not, then his appearance
.
— He could be a model lol
.
— If he really looks like he does in the video, he'll definitely have a girlfriend by now. Keep dreaming on lamo
.
— I can't find anything about him online. Maybe he doesn't exist at all...sob...
.
— He's definitely not a model; I know all the handsome models out there lol
.
— sent the video to a friend of mine who is a professional video editor. She said the video hasn't been edited!!!
.
— could still be staged...
.
— or very well-edited...
.
— would be so cool if it were real, but I think it's fake, unfortunately.
.
— Please don't crush my dreams! *sob*
.
— Don't forget, there is hope that it's real!
______________________________
I couldn't sleep well because I kept thinking about Lycra's last name.
It's probably a coincidence; there are many people with the same surname.
Anyway. I need to get stronger, but how?
I have no idea how to complete the system's task. I can't just go up to people on the street and ask, "Hey, do you want to join my super-secret organization that has absolutely no other members?"
And what kind of organization anyway, I mean, what is the goal?
The system's first task—"first blood"—was to kill someone... I don't think the tasks the system assigns me will become legal in the future, so I don't believe the organization will remain within the bounds of the law.
'Then I definitely shouldn't approach random people on the street '
.
Even so. Women possess mana and men don't, yet I have it and still don't feel any difference. I can sense that I've become stronger, but not exactly how I'm using the mana.
I read that women can build muscle faster if they focus their mana correctly; if I could do that too, it would be a huge help.
Anyway, I've decided to work out one way or another. I plan to go for a run today.
The Strength stat showed up in my status, but Stamina didn't. So, I'm hoping that the system will help me get physically stronger
but I train for stamina myself
I'll be training for physical strength myself, too, but I won't have enough time for it at first because I have to work at the phone store during my free time.
I don't have any sportswear, but I don't care about that for now.
I only have the clothes Olivia gave me anyway; I just realized I haven't even thanked her yet, even though it was the first time I'd ever received a gift.
Speaking of Olivia—at first she didn't want me going out alone, but I told her I wouldn't run away again, so she let me go, though she looked worried.
Now that I'm back in the city, I see the run-down neighborhoods again; now that I know why the neighborhoods are the way they are, I see them with different eyes.
It has been 15 years since Lycra devastated the city; the situation must have been much worse back then.
.
.
* pant… pant *
.
I managed to make it all the way to the city center again—I know I wouldn't have made it that far in my past life, so that's a good thing—but I have a bit of a problem.
I'm out of stamina and I'm a long way from Olivia's place; I don't have the energy or the will to walk back there for now.
'I'm going to look around the city first.'
.
Walking around among the huge skyscrapers is a crazy feeling for me. Sometimes I just stop to look at them.
There are many things in the shops that I recognize from my other lives, but far more interesting are the things I don't know—or things I do recognize but which operate using mana technology.
What a shame that I still don't have any money yet.
But you don't need to have money to get items.
.
'No, not now.'
'I've gotten into trouble for that before. doesn't mean I wouldn't do it again through.'
.
Even though my fingers are itching to do it, I won't... for now
I've learned from my mistakes—meaning I need to come up with a plan beforehand.
.
.
'Ah, it's starting to rain, of course I don't have a rain jacket. guess I steal one. No, not right now.'
.
'I should head back before it gets heavier.'
.
"Hey cutie, don't you want to come with me?l... It's raining and getting cold—I can warm you up hehe."
?
A tall woman dressed in black comes out of the side street.
She has a grin revealing snow-white teeth; the rest of her face is hard to make out.
.
'Great, well that's an disadvantage for a man in this world.'
'Well then, let's see how strong a woman really is'
'Eye of Truth'
.
// Eye of Truth: failed //
.
'What?!'
There are only two ways the eye of truth don't work.
First, the cooldown hasn't expired; second, the target is too strong. And I'm certain the cooldown has expired so...
'fucking damn it'
.
I'll start running immediately, as fast as possible.
I don't care if I get wet from the rain now.
I'm still a bit exhausted from earlier, but there's nothing else I can do right now.
"Why do you want to run sweetie?"
"...Don't you know it's rude to just run off like that hahaha"
'fucking pervert'
.
* huff...huff...pant *
.
"Didn't I tell you it's rude to just run off like that?"
!
'huh!?'
'How can she already be right next to me? She didn't even break a sweat!'
'She is playing with me.'
'And I hate it when people play games with me.'
"Bitch!"
.
I immediately kick at head height using the momentum I have.
*Argh*
'did I hit her?'
?
'I can't move my leg.'
"Oh? You kick pretty hard for a boy."
The woman holds my leg firmly and effortlessly while her grin widens.
She pulls at my leg and I land on the floor. Before I realize it, she is sitting on top of me and pinning my arms to the ground.
'fuck, there's nothing I can do, she's too strong.'
"Oh, you really are a beautiful one, and you're no pushover either hahaha...I like it! Let's have some fun!"
.
She brings her face closer to me and starts smelling me.
"And you smell good too, hehe—looks like I really hit the jackpot."
.
"Hey, could you come a bit closer?"
I say to her
.
"Ooh...Are you finally giving in boy?"
she says enthusiastically and comes closer again
'Just a little bit closer'
!
*Argh*
When she is at the right distance, I headbutt her in the forehead with all my strength.
'ouch...that hurts'
But I went through much worse
The woman is losing her balance a little.
'Now is my chance.'
!
But just as I'm starting to break free a little...
she immediately holds me tight again, even more firmly
"Now, now... I liked your mentality at first, but now you're annoying, let me show you that women are superior."
She grips even tighter and moves closer again with a hungry grin.
!
*Argh*
"Stop that! Stop headbutting me! you're ruining everything!"
She shifts her position and tries to pull me away, but then I give her a third headbutt.
*argh*
My head is pounding and I'm starting to bleed; it definitely hurts me more than it does her.
"Stop it, you're going to ruin your face if you keep going like this!"
