Once I got home I had to explain a couple of things to the Mother and Daughter duo who got very worried when they saw the patch on my cheek.
Jeanne: "My God, Hito-Chan! Are you OK? It hurts something? You need mom to take you to the hospital," Jeanne said very worried, her son rarely came into conflict with anyone much less fought and now he came home beaten and with his clothes disheveled, she was very worried.
Tadano: "Yes mom, I feel good. There is nothing to worry about" I smiled at the worried Jeane who was clinging to my clothes.
Hitomi: "Don't lie Onii-Chan! Someone is bullying you, right! Tell me who it is and I will come to avenge you. I will hit them so hard that not even their mothers will be able to recognize them" Hitomi said very angrily. She could make fun of her older brother all she wanted but she wouldn't allow anyone to hurt her family. Because oh brother. She had already learned very scary ways to cause pain to another person, thanks to her research on the Internet.
Tadano: "Come on Hitomi, it's nothing as serious as you think. "I just taught a lesson to a couple of misfits who didn't know how to respect women."
Hitomi: "PFFF HAHAHA good joke Onii-Chan, you are the most peaceful person I know, you are not capable of killing even a cockroach."
Jeanne: "That's Hito-Chan, you shouldn't fight directly, he just watches you get defeated. My heart hurts".
Tadano: "I understand mom, next time I will be more careful"
Jeanne: "I'm glad you understand now, come to mom, your grandmother always sends me her home remedies and some of them work against inflammation and bruising.
After spending some quality time with the duo, I decided to go to the bathroom to see the rewards.
Tadano: "Well, let's see how the harvest turned out this day."
Ikemen Points: 156
Tadano: "Wow, that's a big win"
Well, first of all, let's improve my stats by one each. Statistics are important to keep me alive.
That would leave me with 140 points. Which I can use to buy some skills.
I quickly opened the shop and selected the wooden tab, I wanted to see if skills like [Advanced Singing] were found here to a lesser extent or weaker.
My effort paid off when I found very useful skills to attract the attention of the female gender.
[Guitar - Initiated] Cost -> 30 Ikemen points
[Dance - Initiated] Cost -> 20 Ikemen points.
[Martial artist – apprentice] cost -> 40 Ikemen points.
I decided to buy them all and train with them while doing my exercise routine.
Then I clicked the [Miscellaneous] button and a huge list appeared in front of me.
I had taken the liberty of visiting certain stores that caught my interest and was testing the waters. When I realized I already had a big list.
I decided to buy a guitar for my future practice with the skill. I used the ability to edit it and added to my request that the guitar could switch between acoustic and electric.
The complete cost with the modifications was 10 Ikemen Points which I paid without problems and stored the guitar in my space ring.
