The following week.
Tanaka Masao's life returned to normal, with him attending school and losing weight every day.
The only difference was that Kashi would often come to the school.
Tanaka Masao was quite helpless about Kashi, who came to school for free food and drinks.
He really wanted to ask Kashi if she wasn't supposed to be collecting magic stones and restoring the Demon Realm.
Why was she now only thinking about eating delicious food and slacking off every day?
However, he had no intention of urging Kashi.
Because the restoration of the Demon Realm had little to do with him.
This week, other things also happened.
The doujinshi that Tanaka Masao had Sawamura Sayuri publish had become a huge hit after a week of fermentation.
Its exquisite art style and exciting plot quickly won over readers.
They even promoted it through their own circles.
This led to more and more people buying it.
Especially on Saturday and Sunday.
The system's Corruption Value grew at an incredibly astonishing rate.
...
By Sunday evening, Tanaka Masao sat in front of his computer, looking at the system interface on the screen with great excitement.
He still preferred to control the system through his computer rather than having the system interface appear directly in his mind.
The first batch of his doujinshi printed 10,000 copies.
Because of its high quality, the bookstore, which had already prepared for reprinting, saw that the reputation was as good as they expected, so they quickly reprinted 50,000 copies.
It was said that these 50,000 copies were also almost sold out, and the bookstore planned to continue reprinting up to 100,000 copies.
This sales volume was an excellent achievement even for manga published by legitimate publishing houses.
Let alone for a doujinshi.
However, the subsequent sales speed would certainly not be as exaggerated.
Because many people bought it immediately after receiving information, which led to such astonishing sales in a short period.
But according to the store owner's estimation, such a high-quality doujinshi.
Even after a few years, it would still be very popular.
A final sales volume of several hundred thousand copies would definitely not be a problem, and it even had a chance to hit the million-copy mark.
The benefits that such good sales brought to Tanaka Masao were self-evident.
Not to mention that after the first batch of 10,000 copies sold out, he received two million in royalties.
A week later, he would receive the next batch of eight million in royalties.
(Ten million yen is approximately five hundred thousand RMB.)
Now, Tanaka Masao could proudly say that he had achieved financial freedom.
In addition to the monetary reward, the system's Corruption Value was also substantial.
The originally empty Corruption Value had already surpassed one hundred thousand, reaching one hundred twenty-three thousand four hundred fifty-six.
Tanaka Masao could finally purchase system items.
Looking at the only two items in the system store.
[Random Talent x1 Price: 100,000 Corruption Value.]
[Random Item x1 Price: 10,000 Corruption Value.]
Tanaka Masao decisively chose one [Random Talent] and two [Random Items].
The [Random Talent] was for him to become more excellent, and the [Random Items] were for sustainable development.
[Ding, obtained: Random Talent x1.]
[Ding, obtained: Random Item x2.]
Tanaka Masao, controlling the mouse, excitedly clicked on [Random Talent].
This feeling was similar to when he drew cards.
"Come on, a gold, an SSR!"
[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining: Free Attribute Point x1.]
Tanaka Masao: ?
Free Attribute Point, what is that?
Looking at the reward given by the system, Tanaka Masao was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses.
"System, can you explain to me what this Free Attribute Point is?"
[Free Attribute Point: An attribute point that the host can freely allocate and use.]
Tanaka Masao: ...
"Hey, System, I asked you to explain, not to elaborate."
[Does the host want to enable the attribute panel function?]
"Attribute panel function? When did this function become available?"
[It was already enabled after the host obtained an attribute point for the first time.]
"What do you mean 'already,' it sounds like it's been enabled for a long time, but it just opened."
Tanaka Masao grumbled while searching the system interface.
In just a blink of an eye, a 'Personal Attributes' option appeared.
"The system plays like this? It's too sloppy, at least give me a system update or something."
He grumbled as he clicked on his attribute panel.
[Name: Tanaka Masao
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Strength: 7
Agility: 3
Constitution: 7
Spirit: 8
Luck: 6
Charm: 2.5
Talent: [Endless Life, Endless Energy] (As long as you are alive, you will have infinite energy)
Free Attribute Point: 1]
Silence was Tanaka Masao's room today.
This attribute panel, his Agility attribute point was 3, he accepted being a cripple.
But what was with that 2.5 Charm?
This was no longer a matter of being low; Tanaka Masao suspected the system was deliberately manipulating the score.
After silently complaining about the system, Tanaka Masao was not in the mood to argue with it.
Because that 2.5 would soon disappear.
He unhesitatingly added the Free Attribute Point to Charm.
[Ding, failed to add point. Please choose again.]
Tanaka Masao: ?
He asked somewhat gritting his teeth.
"System, why did the point addition fail? I need you to give me a reasonable explanation."
[Ding, the system's Charm enhancement involves minor adjustments to the host's appearance to achieve a perfect state.
However, it has been detected that the host is currently losing weight. During weight loss, the host's Charm will continuously increase.
Increasing Charm now would cause the host's weight to drop significantly.
This would not only harm the body but also affect Strength and Constitution attributes.
Therefore, for the host's well-being, this system will continue to provide the Charm point addition function after the host's weight stabilizes.]
Tanaka Masao understood.
The main reason affecting his Charm now was his weight.
If he increased Charm through the system, his weight would decrease significantly in an instant.
A sudden decrease in weight would not only arouse suspicion from others but would definitely make him weak.
"System, you really care about me."
Tanaka Masao also gave up the idea of adding points to Charm.
2.5 is 2.5, physical health is more important than anything else.
At the same time, he still had a question in his mind.
"System, at what approximate weight can I continue to add points?"
[Ding, according to system calculations, the host's weight needs to reach 70 ± 2 kilograms for optimal results.
The closer it is to this range, the lower the damage caused to the host's body by using Charm point addition.]
"This weight, I have to lose at least fifty pounds."
He wouldn't have to consider it for now.
However, there was one thing he was quite curious about.
That is, after he loses weight, will his Charm Value suddenly become very high?
He might be a hidden handsome guy.
"System, do you know what my Charm Value will be after my weight reaches the standard range?"
[Ding, calculating...]
[According to this system's calculation, under ideal conditions, when the host's weight is seventy kilograms.
Charm will be: 5]
