Chereads / Points Madness: For The Vlog! / Chapter 41 - Unified

Chapter 41 - Unified

The next day.

Fred is sitting down on a chair with a bowl of cereal on the table in front of him.

He appears listless as he stares at the air in front of him.

Scooping the cereal on the bowl with the spoon on his hand, he accidentally pushes the bowl with his spoon towards him causing it to tilt to his side and for the milk inside to pour into him.

"Oh sh*t!"

He hurriedly stood up to avoid the milk but some still got into his pants causing it to get wet.

Fred stares at the wet pants annoyedly and complains to himself,

"Why are you so clumsy, you even push your own cereal to your pants, sigh…" he softly mutters as he grabs a towel to wipe the milk off his pants.

After getting rid of the milk he thought if he should change his pants now but decided to do it later.

He sat back down and continued eating, while doing so he looked at the system that he got last night.

Fred inspected the system more thoroughly this time because last night he just skimmed right through it so he is not sure if he fully understands it.

Then as he is looking at it, Fred suddenly frowns as he thinks of something.

He closed his eyes and looked for the 'Inventory' in his head for a bit.

Just like before, the inventory shows no changes, still just a row of boxes with nothing on it. (He removed all that he placed here after he left the first dungeon.)

After seeing that it was the same as it was when he first saw it, Fred opened his eyes again and looked at the system interface.

"Hmm…"

Fred clicked the [Points Madness] title and read it's description again.

"Weird, no matter how many times I check, I still don't see this inventory inside my head in the system. It also seems like it's not part of the [Points Madness] title's ability because it's not written in it, it only says here that this title is for the usage of points to cause miracles hmm…"

Fred keeps muttering things as his face shows a confused look.

After a while he gave up in it,

"Sigh… forget it, for now I'll explore my [Points Madness] goldfinger first.

"Firstly, how am I supposed to gather points?" Fred wondered as he looked at it's description.

Because he is looking at the description he immediately saw the new words that appeared just as he finished speaking.

[10,000 views = 1 Point]

This appeared right at the bottom of the description.

When he saw that, Fred nodded his head as he exclaimed, "Ooh! So that's how it works!"

Fred knows that the views here means the views of his videos on his BlueTube Channel.

Previously, he doesn't know how he got the points that he used for various things. But with this, he finally got a clear answer to it.

He probes inside him for a bit to get a feel for how many points he has, but he gets disappointed because it's still zero.

"Ain't there supposed to be more points in here because of the views that I got for my recently posted videos? Although I haven't checked it yet, I know that by this time it should have surpassed 10,000 views."

Fred said with a bit of doubt.

Then as he is still wondering about that, the system who was silent all this while responded.

[Answer to the question of the host, all the previous points that should have been in the host already were used as energy for initializing the system and so all the views from the videos posted previously cannot generate points anymore.]

Hearing the mechanical voice inside his head caused Fred to raise an eyebrow before he listened to what it said.

"So all the points have been used up by you?" Question Fred.

[Yes, Host.]

Hearing the answer, Fred doesn't know if he should laugh or cry, those Madness Points could have been used to make a skill to make him stronger or something but now it is all gone!

But after thinking about it, because of the system he got a clear understanding of his goldfinger and it seems like it also has a lot of potential so he doesn't seem to be losing out here.

After he thought of that, another question pop out of his head and he asked the system,

"Then I have another question, previously my Madness Points were divided by 3 sections based on their usage, now I only have one, and so it seems like it degraded in quality. The only thing that could have caused it was you last night, why did that happen?" Fred's voice had an irritated tone to it as he asked the question.

[Clarifying to the host, the system did not decrease the quality of the points but instead increase it. Before it was divided into Bronze, Silver, and Gold, the way to acquire points for each section varies, but now with the help of the system, it became unified unlike before.

[It is also another good thing that now, because the points became unified, it can now be used for anything unlike before where a bronze point is not able to do things silver points can do such as making a skill.

[But because of the system, they became one. Now 1 point is equivalent to 5 Bronze points or 1 Silver points, and 100 points is now equivalent to 1 Gold point.]

After that explanation, the system stayed silent again.

As for Fred, he got enlightened with the explanation of the system as his jaw dropped to the ground.

"Thi-this, doesn't this mean that I can have a Gold point that can only be obtained with an achievement previously as long as I get 100 points or 1 million views!?" Fred's breathing became a little ragged as he thought about it.

The power of 1 Gold point is something that can turn back time even if it's just 1 minute!

It's a life saving item who won't become red eyed just thinking about that!

Fred calmed down himself for a few minutes before he returned to normal, but even though it said normal, there is still excitement in him that he can't fully get rid off.

Fred wants to distract himself with something so that he won't think about it anymore.

Because of that he decided to open up his BlueTube to see what happened to it these past few days, but then this move gave him a great shock.
