My Life In A Fantasy, Women-Dominated World-Chapter 102: Different Types Of Tasks
[ Their Need: None (Content) ]
[ Class Benefit: All stats +25% ]
Aaron stared at the screen for many seconds, his eyes widening before a small smile blossomed on his face.
It was far more genuine than any other till now, his gaze wandering towards the cause of it.
Claire didn’t seem to be aware about the change she had brought, as she only looked back at him with the same gentle expression on her face.
But for Aaron, this change was earth shattering.
He didn’t care about any other stat except the magic!
Currently sitting at 245, just its 25% came out to be 61!
61 more stat points into magic, which might end up boosting his other stats even more!
Even if he considered that due to heavenly bullshit, he would only gain 30 out of the 61, it was still a huge gain, since it was equivalent to a whole level up!
And that wasn’t all.
With each added level and point into magic, the 25% addition would keep rising and rising, giving him an even more exponential growth.
Unable to contain his excitement, he directly lunged at Claire, pinning her under himself as he peppered her face with kisses.
She seemed surprised about it, not understanding the reasoning behind his lovebombing, but when she heard Nancy’s jealous grumbles, she leaned more into it.
Of course, after lathering Claire with kisses, Aaron had to lovebomb the pouting white haired beauty as well, reducing her irritation by a little.
Eva was the only one left, but she didn’t seem as interested in it currently, as she needed a little more time to prepare herself.
After all, she never expected that Aaron would actually have the capabilities to convince her hot-headed best friend.
And now that he did it, she felt too embarrassed. A fact that Aaron already knew of and understood, sparing Eva the trouble of having to deny or being forced to accept when she wasn’t ready.
Food finished, mood slightly balanced, the four began to chat amicably amongst each other.
The sparks of enmity existed between the two kittens, but Aaron managed to keep them both from fighting and Eva was satisfied just by teasing him and taking a neutral stance.
Stories were shared, Nancy also found out about the upcoming mission with Claire’s group that left her both jealous and worried.
But after knowing his strength and his plans to act as an utility type support, she could only nod supportively.
Not like she was capable of dissuading him from the decision anyway.
After an hour of chatting, Nancy was the first to bid farewell, telling them that she needs to go home or her parents might think she’s fooling around again.
Which wasn’t wrong, truthfully.
With Nancy gone, the topics switched. Eva and Claire debriefed him about the plans on mission, and the tasks they would need to finish over there to be eligible for rewards.
And those rewards were totally worthy of the difficulty those missions posed, since the government knew that being cheap and miser about rewards would not only reduce the number of voluntary raiders, but also cause more damages and losses from monsters in the long run.
Rather than suffering from such, they decided to offer mouth watering incentives for the interested parties, which not only made the job faster but also raised the overall strength of their populace.
"Well, that’s all. We still don’t have the list of all available extra tasks that we can attempt, but we are trying to get our hands on them." Claire sighed exhaustedly.
Seeing his confusion, Eva chuckled, "You must be thinking why are we having troubles finding out something that was supposed to be issued by the government, correct?"
Aaron only nodded in response.
"Well the mission tasks are for everyone, we already briefed you about those. The tasks I am talking about are those extra ones that you can complete in addition to the government mission." Claire explained with a nod.
Eva giggled, "There’s no way he will understand with just that," she clicked her tongue, waving her index finger playfully.
"What my lovely harem member is trying to tell is that the tasks we are searching for aren’t official government missions, but rather personal requests of many other people that they want to be done in exchange of money, goods and services." she explained calmly, giggling when she mentioned the word ’harem member’.
"I see, that makes sense. But then the authenticity of those requests? How do you know if they are genuine ones or fake requests with small conditions that deduct the prize money?" Aaron hummed thoughtfully.
"Well duh," Claire sighed, "That’s why it’s a hard task. There are so many fake requests with difficult tasks and horrendous penalties. They are mostly to get free labour out of the newbie teams." she shrugged carelessly.
Eva chuckled, "Indeed. And many good ones are already gatekeepen by the bigger guilds or teams for their own members. But then again, you don’t need to worry about those.
You should focus on your exams for the next two days and let us do this stuff, we are used to it."
Getting reminded about the exams, Mrs. Clint’s dangerous eyes resurfaced in Aaron’s mind.
Reminding of those vicious slits that were locked onto him, the overbearing bloodlust and that strange, lustful magic that assaulted his senses.
Aaron nodded, calming down his rising heartbeats with low breaths as he casually asked, "By the way, do you know about any race that has powers over physical stimulation and the eyes look like slits?"
Eva’s chuckles and giggles paused, her eyes narrowing onto Aaron with the same curious look and suspicion.
While Claire’s eyes shifted to him as well, not expecting such a random question.
"Why?" Eva asked carefully, squinting at him.
Aaron debated for multiple seconds, humming and thinking before looking at Claire with a knowing smile.
"I cannot tell you right now." he said simply, and Claire instantly caught the cue, making her sigh exhaustedly.
She fell on the bed, her back landing on the mattress with a plop as she sighed like an old woman counting her last breaths.
"Just tell him what he wants to know, Eve." she grumbled.
