Chereads / Luscious Ambition / Chapter 4 - Increasing Ambition

Chapter 4 - Increasing Ambition

[Day: Wednesday]

[Time: Afternoon]

[Location: Matsugaya University]

I sat in the gym and looked at Lust-E, looking over all of the advice she could give me. As I studied the advice, she beeped causing me to look around. Lustie even scouted out then used her Eye of Lust to detect the woman Lust-E detected. She placed her hand on my head, allowing me to see the highlighted woman that was across the gym, resting after a set.

She was undeniably beautiful, her honey tan skin making her stand out a lot. Her skin had a certain glow that meant she lived a really healthy lifestyle. Her physique was also nothing short of remarkable, also a result of her dedication to a healthy lifestyle.

'Whoa...who is she..?' I mumbled.

"Your second test. She's alone, so go ahead and slither your way over there! I'm trying to see you get some pussy!~ Respectfully of course!" Lustie said and smiled.

I stood up and straightened my clothes. I took a few deep breaths and exhaled. 'I think I can handle the introductions..'

[Oh? Alright then.]

[Task: Increase Target's Attraction Meter to 100%]

[Reward: Ambition Boost +10%]

I nodded and made my toward the woman with a determined stride. As I neared closer to her, I did feel myself growing nervous. However, I remained strong for myself.

Mark watched me then smirked, setting his weights down then pat his friend. "Yo, Eric. You see that loser trying to spit game at that chick?"

Eric looked over at me, still doing his reps with his dumbbells. He laughed softly at me, clearly doubting my skills. "No way that fruitcake pulls that baddie.."

As I approached the woman, I managed to catch her eye. She looked up from her phone, taking one of her earbuds out of her ear.

"Hey, I saw you over here doing your thing...wanted to ask if I could join you." I asked, trying to keep my voice filled with confidence.

The woman, not easily swayed by me, rose an eyebrow and smirked at me. She looked at me up and down, slightly checking me out. "Depends..." she replied, her natural sultry voice filled with playful skepticism. "Think you can handle it..?~"

"Ooohh~ She might be too hot for you, my boy! She's a Level 10 Baddie!" Lustie said.

"And this is where he fumbles.." Mark chuckled as he watched me.

I looked at the woman, her challenge surprising me and catching me off guard, but I was already too deep in. I chuckled and accepted her challenge. "Only one way to find out...ladies first..~" I countered, playfully stroking her chin.

[???'s Attraction Meter rose to 15%]

The woman chuckled softly as I stroked her chin, playfully smacking my hand away. She stood up, placing her hand on my chest and pushed me back gently. "Alright... I'll play along with you..~"

"Yo..." Lustie said in disbelief.

"Yo..." Mark said in disbelief, his jaw dropping as he watched me get past phase one of attracting this baddie.

The woman took her position beneath the barbell that sat on a rack. "Oh by the way, the name's Amber..~"

I took position to spot her then smiled. "The name's Shiro.."

As we began our workout sessions, I quickly began to realize Amber's playful and teasing personality. We shared a lot of banter, I even throwing a few flirtatious remarks which was returned with a few of her own. Although I wasn't as strong as I would hope to be, I showed off enough to ignite a spark between the two of us.

[Flirting EXP +1400]

[Charm/Charisma EXP +500]

[Stamina EXP +1500]

[Stamina Level UP!]

[Stamina Level: 2 (Increased Stamina +10%)]

After our intense workout session, we got ourselves refreshed in the locker rooms. We met up outside in the University's main plaza and I decided to make my move.

[Luscious Ambition: 10%]

[Amber's Attraction Meter: 65%]

I walked over to Amber and pat her back, catching her attention. "So?"

Amber let a sly smile tug at the corners of her lips, eyeing me up and down. "Mmm~ You did alright..~"

I chuckled softly at her comment. "I was thinking we could grab a post workout smoothie from the food court? I'll pay..~"

[Amber's Attraction Meter rose to 70%]

Amber paused for a moment, a coy smile playing on her lips. "Well, alright. I'll join you for that smoothie.."

I gave a victorious, yet humble smile. "C'mon then, let's roll out."

Amber chuckled and walked forward, using her finger to tilt my head up playfully as she walked by. I blushed and chuckled then looked at her, following her.

"Sheesh~ Give that man a little confidence and he's already bagging the baddies?" Lustie giggled.

[He does have some Ambition so all of his traits are boosted by 10%. To most that's not anything at all, but to Shiro...10% is huge, it's almost like 100% to him.]

'You say this as if I can't hear you as well...' I thought to Lust-E.

Lustie chuckled and hovered behind me. "She's just teasing~ I hope~"

Amber and I made it to the food court, getting out smoothies, and finding a place to sit down at the courtyard. Since I've already ignited the spark between us, a conversation was not hard to have with Amber. As I noticed Amber becoming more attracted to me, I decided to go in for the kill.

'Alright, Lust-E. Work your magic.' I thought to her.

[Generating Flirtatious Remark...]

I looked at the line of text that appeared in front of me then nodded to myself. I leaned back in my chair, my eyes now fixated on Amber's radiant smile. "So, Amber...what's your secret into staying so fit? Couldn't take my eyes off you during our work out.."

[Flirting EXP +150]

[Flirting Level UP!]

[Flirting Level: 2 (Able to generate better lines, Flirting Efficiency +10%)]

Amber took a sip from her smoothie, giving me a playful, yet flirtatious look. "Well you know...what everyone needs when they hit the gym. Drive, Ambition, and Motivation...but these curves didn't come from just the gym. A girl's gotta eat too..~ I noticed you staring...and I noticed your little sidekick was excited too..~ Nice size..."

Lustie nearly fainted at her response. "Oh...Shiro, I pray to my boss you do not fumble this..!"

'Man what can I do?! She got me stumped too!' I thought to Lustie, still keeping my same expression.

[Generating Seductive Remark...]

I noticed the line then cleared my throat, leaning forward against the table, my voice dropping to a low, intimate tone as I made eye contact with Amber. "Maybe we could work out in private sometime, so you can see my little sidekick more..."

[Amber's Attraction Meter rose to 85%]

[Seduction EXP +150]

Amber's playful persona melted away, now replaced by a flicker of genuine interest. She leaned forward, mirroring my tone. "You think you can handle it..?~ Most guys are all talk...No. Action."

Lustie, now having a firm grip on me, squealed with excitement. "Reel it in! Reel it in!"

I kept eye contact with Amber then smirked. "Only one way to find out..~ Swing by my place...I'll show you action.."

[Amber's Attraction Meter rose to 100%]

[Successfully attracted Amber!]

Amber smirked and handed her phone to me. "I've got errands to run tonight, but maybe tomorrow night, we could get something going. I just wanna test the waters..~"

I took her phone, entering my contact details into her phone. I handed her back her phone. "There..~"

Amber grabbed her phone then texted me, to lock us in. She heard the bell ring then smiled at me, getting up. She walked behind me, gently rubbing my shoulder. "I've still got classes, so I'll see you tomorrow..~"

I blushed as she let her hands glide along my shoulders. "Yeah, most definitely..."

Lustie and I watched Amber walk off. I finally exhaled and scrabbled my hair, the realization finally seeping into my head.

"Did I just set up a date...to have her come over to my house tomorrow?" I asked myself.

"That you did sir!~ And because of that we've got to raise your Ambition EVEN higher! You've successfully gotten a girl's number and by yourself?! I'm sure we can go out and grind up some EXP for your date with Gloria~" Lustie chuckled.

I looked at the information and smiled at myself. I felt my confidence growing as I managed to get someone's number on my own.

"Alright, let's wrap it up and get ready to head out tonight!" Lustie said.

I nodded and stood up, gathering my things to leave and head home.

[Day: Wednesday]

[Time: Evening]

[Location: Home]

I had finally gotten myself ready then walked out of my bathroom with some nice casual clothes. I looked at Lustie and she gave me a thumbs up, smiling at me.

"Now that you're ready, let's get our here and get some interactions going! I also have a gift for you. Remember that Luscious Box? It's in the garage!" Lustie said and smiled at me with her hands on her hips, standing proudly.

I was pretty intrigued and decided to head down to the garage. Lustie happily followed behind, her eyes filled with anticipation for me to see her gift. We walked into the garage and I noticed a large red box in the middle of the garage.

I walked toward it, slightly examining it before touching it. The box glowed red before dispersing into red energy particles, revealing a nice looking red car that made my jaw drop.

"Isn't she beautiful..?~ Your new Acura LST Type E!" Lustie giggled and held her arms as she hovered behind me.

"Type E?! What the hell? I didn't even know LST or Type E existed!" I said.

"It doesn't!~ I just simply replicated an already existing Acura and modified it~ A beautiful royal red exterior with a beautiful leather interior plus modified with the ability to hook Lust-E up to it and become automatic. If you thought Tesla was groundbreaking, they ain't ready for my home's technology~" Lustie said in a cocky tone.

I chuckled softly and admired my new car. "Well, I've got to thank you. I was wondering how I was going to pick up Gloria on Friday.."

"Don't mention it, Champ!~ Now let's take this baby for a spin to the mall~" Lustie said.

"Don't have to tell me twice." I said then got in the car.

I got into the car and hooked Lust-E to the car. I noticed I didn't need a key for the car, I just needed Lust-E as she is the one who powers the car. After getting everything settled, the garage door opened and I drove off to the mall.

[Day: Wednesday]

[Time: Evening]

[Location: Destiny Haven Mall]

I made it to the mall and parked my car, getting out and fixing my clothes. I looked around and noticed people walking left and right, some leaving the mall and some heading toward the Mall's entrance.

[Luscious Ambition: 60%]

"Alright~ Let's get to it! We've got four women to flirt with and two compliments to fish for!" Lustie said.

I smiled and made my way to the entrance. I made sure to put on my best face and show confidence as I walked around the bustling mall. As I passed by a trendy clothing store, my eyes had locked with a stunning woman browsing through a few clothes on the racks. With a smile, I decided to approach her.

[Generating basic flirt line...]

"Excuse me, I couldn't help but notice how beautiful you look tonight.." I complimented, my voice filled with genuine admiration.

[Flirting EXP +100]

The woman blushed, a smile tugging at the corner of her lips. "O-Oh thank you..~ You look really nice yourself.." she replied, her voice tinged with a hint of bashfulness.

"Thank you. My name is Shiro, by the way." I greeted holding my hand out to her.

"It's nice to meet you, Shiro. I'm Sarah." Sarah answered, shaking my hand gently.

The two of us engaged in a small conversation about the clothes she was looking for and about her taste in fashion. We had a pretty good conversation before we split ways.

"Nice one~ Three more to go." Lustie said.

-------------------

My journey around the mall soon led me to a vibrant cosmetic store, where I spotted a beautiful woman expertly trying on different shades of lipstick. Her confidence attracted me, causing me to approach her.

[Generating basic flirt line...]

"Excuse me, but I must say, this shade of lipstick looked really good on you.." I complimented with a smile.

[Flirting EXP +150]

The woman flashed a dazzling smile at me, chuckling softly. "Thank you, Hon..~ I must say...I don't see cute guys like you come around too often~"

I blushed a bit, rubbing the back of my head smiling. "Well...I guess I must be your lucky break. My name's Shiro.."

"Nice to meet you, Shiro. My name is Rachael..~" The woman chuckled softly.

We shared some banter and flirts with one another as we engaged in a casual conversation, our chemistry evident as Rachael's laughter filled the air. Soon enough, Rachael had to leave, but she did give me her social media so we could keep talking.

[Daily Goal Complete! (Recieved Three Compliments)]

[Reward: Charm/Charisma EXP +600]

[Charm Level UP!]

[Charm/Charisma Level: 2 (Luscious Presence Unlocked!)

'Ehh? Ehh?' I said to Lust-E.

[Unfortunately Social Medias don't count. Can't register that.]

Lustie chuckled and followed me. "I mean at least you've got her social media. From the type of woman she is, you should feel like the man!"

I infact did feel like a man at this moment, but as my my social battery went down so did my Ambition. I was growing quite tired as I've already spent an hour walking around the mall, practically windows shopping and getting rejected by the majority of women here. I decided to only flirt with one last woman before calling it a night.

--------------------------

[*Beep Beep Beep*]

As I wandered around the mall, my lucky break finally hit when Lust-E actually detected someone I could be in a potential date with. Lustie highlighted the woman and placed her hand on my head, allowing me to see the highlighted woman.

This woman had a beauty that captivated me nearly immediately. She had rose gold hair that cascades in soft waves, adding a touch to her captivating beauty. She had light skin, kissed with a pinkish hue and her skin glowed almost like Amber's. She had a thin, curvy body that exuded grace.

"Oh man, she's hot. The Baddie Alarm is ringing!~ I think for this one you should act like you're browsing books and go in for the cheesy grab at the same time motion. Let's run the play!" Lustie said.

[Task: Raise Target's Attraction Meter to 100%]

[Reward: Ambition EXP +1500]

I walked into the store and decided to act like I was browsing around the bookstore. As I looked around, a book did seem to catch my eye. I decided to take a quick moment to examine the novel.

[Talent EXP +100 (Vocabulary Increase)]

I smirked to myself, covering my face with the book. 'I got EXP from reading?'

[Talent Levels take the longest to upgrade, so any action that requires Talent grants Talent EXP.]

I decided to put the book back and reached for another book, my fingertips brushing across someone else's who grabbed the book at the same time as I did. Startled, I glanced at the person, noticing it was the woman Lust-E tracked.

"Oops! Sorry about that," The woman exclaimed, her voice as melodious as a songbird. Her friendly smile softened the air, eliminating any awkwardness between us.

I found myself suddenly captivated by her presence. Her free-willed energy and the warmth of her smile was infectious, drawing me into her orbit. "No worries, this book caught my eye as well...and so did you," I replied, my voice filled with curiosity.

[Nice.]

[???'s Attraction Meter rose to 20%]

[Flirting EXP +150]

The woman blushed and giggled softly at my response. "You're pretty eye catching as well..~ My name's Chloe.."

"Nice to meet you, Chloe. My name's Shiro." I greeted and smiled at her.

With a smooth recovery and a spark now ignited, Chloe and I began to hang out around the bookstore. She found her interest in books with pictures such as the Archie Comics, Graphic Novels, and some miscellaneous books like Pokemon Guides and animal books.

We found a few books we wanted to read together, so we grabbed a couple and sat down at the lounge area, chatting about the books we picked up and reading together.

"Ahh..~ I love this author so much~ Her artwork, her words and storytelling~" Chloe giggled softly then looked at me. "Do you like Noelle Grant as well?"

"I do read her novels from time to time. My favorite one by her is Trails to Nowhere." I said, smiling at Chloe.

[Chloe's Attraction Meter rose to 80%]

"That's one of my favorites as well! I have to admit, I did cry when I read it the first time.." Chloe giggled. "There's another author I've been looking into as well...uhm...his name was..."

I looked at Chloe, noticing she had forgotten the name of an author.

"Geez, and I literally just saw his name when we picked out a book of his...uhm..." Chloe closed her eyes as she tried to remember.

"Louis Drapton?" I asked.

"Yes! That's his name!" Chloe giggled then sighed, finally happy to remember the name of one of her beloved authors. "Finally...my head can stop hurting!~ I hate it when I forget things~"

I looked at Chloe and really felt attracted to her now. Her personality was just like a breath of fresh air to me.

Chloe looked at me and noticed I was staring. "Is something on my face?" she asked, wiping her face with her jacket sleeve.

I chuckled softly, stopping her from wiping her face. "Not exactly, just...your personality is like a breath of fresh air from what I'm used to on my usual day to day basis. It's nice.."

[Chloe's Attraction Meter rose to 90%]

Chloe smiled happily as she stared at me. "Really? I'm glad you think so..~ You're really nice as well and I haven't met a guy that likes to read like I do..."

"All I do is read for the most part, it's now one of my main hobbies." I chuckled softly.

[Touche.]

Chloe giggled softly and let out a content sigh. "Hey, you know you should take down my number, maybe we can hang out sometime?"

I nodded and smiled. "Most definitely.."

[Chloe's Attraction Meter rose to 100%]

[Successfully attracted Chloe!]

[Reward: Ambition EXP +1500]

[Ambition Level UP!]

[Ambition Level: 2 (Boosts Luscious Presence by 10%, Longer Social Battery)]

Chloe nodded happiy then went to grab her phone from her bag, but noticed it wasn't there. She quickly looked around herself. "Uh—My phone?"

"It's right here." I said as I picked her phone off the table.

Chloe looked at her phone in my hand then blushed with a hint of embarrassment. "Thank you..hehe..~"

I chuckled and watched as she unlocked her phone, handing it to me. I put in my information then returned her phone. Chloe texted me and locked us in.

"There we go~" Chloe smiled at me. "I should get going, I have to work."

"Alright... I'll catch you later." I smiled at Chloe.

Chloe waved and gathered her things and the books she wanted to buy then left.

"Alright, partner. Let's call it a night and head home. Good work today!" Lustie smiled at me.

'Finally...I was getting sleepy.' I muttered and stood up to go home.
