Just as his thoughts deepened, the familiar chime echoed faintly across his vision.
SYSTEM NOTIFICATION!
Countdown complete {00:00.}
[Current probability of hidden encounters: High
Target's emotional state increased by 100%
Predicted desire metric: 50% threshold reached]
A wave of silent amusement washed over Eran. He let a low, self-assured smirk spread across his face. It was clear now, the message confirmed what he'd suspected; if the emotional state was maxed out at 100% within the countdown period, the target's base desire chance increased by 50%. That means the process of establishing connections and hidden encounters are high, way more than he had ever imagined.
He hadn't been mistaken; his new skill, Stare Veil of Murmur, was infinitely more efficient than its predecessor. It wasn't just planting a thought; it was systematically tearing down emotional defenses to light the fires of lust and desire in a single, focused goal.
