Seeing the introductions of the two skills, Jeremy let out a sigh of relief.
Skills could be good or bad, and luckily, the two he received were quite decent.
Shadow Step could increase his movement speed, allowing Jeremy to be more agile in combat. Gale Slash provided him with a long-range attack method, which might surprise and have more impact than expected.
In addition to these, Jeremy also obtained two Agility Potions, which could increase his agility by 10 points each, and two tier-3 Energy Crystals.
After using the Agility Potions, Jeremy's agility attribute increased by 20 points, reaching 51, nearly catching up to his strength attribute.
Energy Crystals were guaranteed drops from chests, with iron chests dropping tier-2 Energy Crystals and bronze chests dropping tier-3 Energy Crystals, and so on.
[Item]: Energy Crystal
[Level]: Tier 3
[Description]: Upon use, you can randomly increase an attribute by 10 points.
[Tip]: Perform 30 sit-ups to gain 10 points of strength attribute.
To Jeremy's surprise, the Energy Crystals also came with a tip from The Eye of Omniscience, allowing him to gain 10 points of strength attribute with 100% certainty by completing the hidden mechanism.
As he leveled up, Jeremy could clearly feel The Eye of Omniscience's power growing stronger.
In the future, he might rely on the hidden mechanisms of Energy Crystals to gain specific attributes, or even ensure that monsters drop equipment or items 100% of the time.
The thought of such scenarios excited Jeremy.
Though it diminished the thrill of gambling, the reassurance it provided was irreplaceable!
...
Having calmed his emotions, Jeremy stored the Energy Crystals in his storage space and left the tea room.
Since Emma's original office had become overgrown with weeds, they had moved to another office that was cleaner and more spacious.
When Jeremy pushed open the door of the office, he found that the original office had been tidied up by Emma, who was now arranging the bedding in the temporary rest room.
A room initially meant for brief rests had been transformed into a homey bedroom, and it was unclear where she had found the bedding.
Seeing Jeremy return, Emma, dressed in a black silk nightgown, wiped the sweat from her forehead and greeted him with a radiant smile.
She threw him a coquettish look and said in a soft voice,"Honey, you're back."
Emma was already a mature and charming woman, and her deliberate act made her even more enchanting.
Jeremy, in the prime of his youth and vigor, couldn't resist her flirtation and felt a flame ignite within him.
"I'm back."
Jeremy stepped forward and hugged Emma, his hand dishonestly reaching into her silk nightgown to pinch it.
He unexpectedly discovered that Emma was not wearing anything inside, and found it smooth and soft.
A warmth surged in Jeremy's heart, and he promptly carried Emma to the bed.
"Take it easy." Emma exclaimed softly as she fell onto the bed, then chuckled, responding even more passionately to Jeremy.
Soon, the room was filled with heavy breathing and soft moans.
Feeling the time was right, Jeremy had Emma turn over and lie face down on the bed. Supporting her rounded, fair hips, he entered her.
"Oh yeah..!"
Emma's moans, a mix of pain and pleasure, filled the room.
Followed by the rhythmic sounds of physical collision.
...
In another office, Bonnie had finished tidying up the room and was now lying on the sofa to rest.
It was already late, and after a day of ups and downs, she was exhausted and soon fell asleep.
However, Bonnie hadn't been asleep for long when she began to hear strange noises.
The banging sounded like a monster attacking the door.
At this thought, Bonnie instantly opened her eyes, her beautiful gaze cautiously scanning her surroundings.
But gradually, she realized something was off about these noises... In addition to the sound of something hitting the door, there seemed to be voices.
Bonnie held her breath and listened carefully.
"Honey... faster... even faster..."
At first, Bonnie didn't understand what was happening, but after recognizing Emma's seductive voice, she was momentarily stunned before abruptly standing up from the sofa.
Her face flushed as if it would drip water, her eyes filled with embarrassment and anger. Jeremy was actually... actually making love with Principal Emma?
"Despicable!"
With her teeth clenched in anger, Bonnie wished she could change rooms right then.
Unfortunately, the other rooms were covered in filth and blood, and it had taken her some effort to clean up this one.
Moreover, it was night, and Bonnie couldn't find a better place in such short notice.
Hearing Emma's increasingly embarrassing moans, Bonnie was restless and couldn't sleep a wink.
Annoyed, she took a sip of water and paused, looking at the cup in her hand with a sudden cunning glint in her eye.
"You're the one doing wrong. Don't blame me for this." Bonnie huffed coldly and suddenly smashed the glass cup onto the floor.
The clear glass cup shattered upon contact with the floor.
This noise obviously startled the indecent couple next door.
The inappropriate sounds ceased, and the room fell silent again.
Imagining Jeremy's astonishment and anger at this moment gave Bonnie a sense of successful revenge, making even the hard sofa feel somewhat comfortable.
But before she could lie down for long, even more frantic banging and moaning sounds came through again.
The banging was clearer through the wall than before, making Bonnie visualize a scene where Jeremy was pressing Emma against the wall, persistently thrusting.
"Jeremy, you bastard!" Bonnie's voice was filled with embarrassed anger.
In the next room, a smirk appeared on Jeremy's face.
He had always been one to retaliate.
Since this woman dared to interrupt his enjoyment, Jeremy was determined to keep Bonnie awake all night.
"Jeremy... doing this... isn't it too much?" Emma, graceful and alluring, pressed against the wall, continuously receiving Jeremy's thrusts, her eyes full of shame.
She, too, had heard Bonnie's voice.
The thought of her student just beyond the wall nearly overwhelmed her with intense shame.
Supporting Emma's slender waist without pausing, Jeremy laughed, "This is just a lesson for her, to see if she dares to cause trouble again."
At this, Emma could only nod, as she no longer had the strength to speak.
It was destined to be a sleepless night.
However, Jeremy couldn't shake the feeling that he had forgotten something important.
...
On the rooftop of the teaching building, the night wind blew.
Hungry Ritchie huddled in the corner and couldn't help but shiver. He moved her body to change her leeward direction.
By now, Ritchie had realized his predicament. Unfortunately, his phone had run out of battery due to playing games, and he had also locked the door to the rooftop, effectively trapping himself there.
He looked up at the bright moon in the night sky, sniffled, and murmured, "Jeremy... when will you finally come?"
...
Time passed, and the night quickly turned into morning.
Early the next morning, Jeremy woke up on time, feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.
Becoming a player had greatly improved his constitution, allowing him to recover his energy and spirit with just a few hours of sleep.
Beside him, Emma's bare shoulders were exposed, and her hair was somewhat disheveled.
There was a look of exhaustion on her face as she slept soundly.
After being kept up all night by Jeremy, Emma probably wouldn't be waking up any time soon.
Jeremy tidied her hair and kissed her smooth forehead before getting dressed.
Jeremy found his toiletries, opened the door, and prepared to go out for his morning wash.
Just then, the door to the adjacent office opened.
Bonnie walked out, looking haggard, with two large dark circles under her eyes, resembling smudged eye shadow.
Seeing Jeremy, a surge of intense anger filled her eyes, as if she wanted to bite him to death.
"Good morning, Bonnie. How did you sleep last night?" Jeremy said with a smile, acting as if nothing had happened the night before, and politely greeted Bonnie.
