My Pick Up Artist System

Chapter 173 A test that wasn“t sh*

Ben was sitting in his computer chair at home now, having ended the workday not long after giving Laura his thanks...

He didn’t know why she was targeting him. However, he suspected it had something to do with why her attraction level dropped so much. Then, when he remembered Paul was the head of their department, Ben started to put things together...

Even so, these plotters didn’t concern him. He believed he’d find a method to take care of Paul, because if he could faceslap him once, he could faceslap him twice!

Like most other things, faceslaps came better in pairs...

As for Laura, despite her malicious acts, Ben forgave her, because he was bighearted...thrice over...and she was sexy enough to have the ability to grab hold of his hearts...

Thus, his forgiveness would be bountiful...and he couldn’t help it, because each time her hips swerved, he felt her tug on his hearts-sting...

There was also one other reason Ben was such a humanitarian--it followed the playbook.

28th stratagem of web novels: spare the beauties to convert them to love interests later.

Ben believed life was short. Therefore, every man received only a fixed amount of opportunities to meet women, so why waste them just because she was an enemy? It was the 21st century. Nowadays, it wasn’t strange to have enemies with benefits!

In fact, he knew that according to web novels in an ancient setting, it was always this way!

In any case, when returning to work, Ben planned to handle her one way or another... He’d let her slide for now but it was only so she’d use that momentum to later slide on his schvontz...

That was hentai physics...

’Whatever, I should go over my achievements from the day.’ Although it was only his first day, Ben made some gains. Besides the check he’d be receiving for participating in the shoot, he also won rewards for completing the system challenge from Owen.

[Congratulations! You’ve completed the Special Optional Challenge: Swole or Troll - Prove to the Boss of Floor 11 that you have what it takes, then fill in for his task]

[Reward: 1000 PUA Points, higher-level Tower access, and possible attention from figures of the higher floors]

[Distributing reward: 1000 PUA points]

...

Ben waited a while but nothing happened. Staring at the screen, he reread it, certain there were three rewards there, but the system said nothing about the last two. When he asked about them, she only replied they were in process...

He didn’t understand the exact meaning of that though. "Whatever, I’ll wait and see what happens..."

There were some achievements as well.

[Congratulations! You’ve unlocked the Achievement: Does This Make My Butt Look Big?(fine) - Foil one woman’s trap]

[Distributing reward: PUA Points + 500]

’Damn plotters...a man needs to be careful these days.’

[Congratulations! You’ve unlocked the Achievement: Dragon Slapper(fine) - Neutralize a hostile identified tower character of at least mini-boss status]

[Distributing reward: PUA Points + 500]

’Hmm...This is the second occasion I’ve gotten an achievement that didn’t relate to pick up or sex...’ Ben recalled the first was when he befriended DJ SpinBalls at Domina... ’It seems like in these special locations the system recognizes, there are some ways to get points besides seducing women. The methods aren’t simple or common though.’ He took a few seconds to consider how he felt about that...

"I don’t...want it!" He channeled Jon Snow...

When it came down to it...Ben preferred the old-fashioned way; the only goals he needed were holes...

It wasn’t strange when you considered he enjoyed classics such as Mario Golf...

There weren’t any more achievements after that, but it was enough. The main thing was that his first day went well despite someone targeting him, and he’d be better prepared in the future. Glancing at his points total, he found it wasn’t enough for a high level mystery box, and his social status multiplier was still active, so Ben decided to save them for later.

Looking at the time on his phone, he realized he needed to study. The next day, there was a midterm in Strategic Marketing. Although Ben already earned an A, even he had to take the midterm if he wanted to get an A+. Considering he already knew the material better than anyone, he smirked, knowing he’d pull it off as long as he brushed up on the textbook that night. With that in mind, he opened the book and got to work.

***

The next morning, Ben entered the strategic marketing classroom in high spirits, confident he’d ace the test. As he walked into the wide space though, he received the Naruto reception...

All the students he face-terminated during his victory speech showed various expressions of anxiety, fear, and hatred. However, Ben didn’t mind them for two reasons.

First, he knew that real alphas didn’t care what others thought; They did what they wanted, and at a gradual pace, he was adopting this mentality.

Second, there were much better things to look at than their defeated bitter faces, such as the beautiful Miyuki passing out tests, of who Ben had many fondle memories of...

Then there was Olivia at the edge of the room—who also stared at him with a complicated expression. Although Professor Tremblay wasn’t around because a test like this only needed one proctor, Ben still appreciated the views.

"H-hello...Ben..."

"Hmm?" Glancing down, he saw Charlotte. Ben almost failed to notice her due to her low sense of presence, which he assumed she cultivated as the shadow sixth player in a championship basketball team...

"Hey, Charlotte." He smiled. ’This is the first time she’s greeted me. I guess our relations have improved.’ He didn’t care that much about how she saw him, but was happy she could enjoy this class without others bullying her. When he was younger, he would’ve treasured such a situation...

Charlotte appeared like she wanted to say something else, but couldn’t get it out. When he walked to the other end of the room to say hi to Miyuki, Charlotte sighed and sat down.

Ben chatted a few lines and ninja-pinched Miyuki’s butt...before she shooed him away. "Benjamin-san, please sit down. The test is starting."

Realizing he was one of the last people not in a seat, he quickly sat down in the far back corner as Miyuki placed a test in front of him and then continued passing them around.

As Ben prepared to examine it, he stopped and turned his head, because the corner of his eye caught something unexpected. ’When did she move there?’

Occupying the seat to his right, was the last person he expected to sit there—Olivia.

Ben narrowed his eyes, ’There’s no doubt she’s here for me...This may be trouble.’ Olivia struck him as the type of person who hated to lose. Since he defeated her not too long ago, he couldn’t avoid being wary of her intentions. His muscles tensed as he considered how she might attack him. ’Poison? Hidden weapons? Penis fly trap?’

There were too many possibilities... Glancing at her long legs, he realized she even possessed weapons of mass seduction...

As such, he became even more concerned about this tall icy beauty... ’What does she want?’

Ben’s balls felt a chill...
