It was slightly late but Keith suddenly realised something. The system said that it was a modified version of Aria's awakened ability and this genuinely awed him.
'The libido control aside... I could technically use the sensitivity control to increase my target's sense of pain. This way, even if my punches lack strength, it'll make them feel like they're getting hit by a truck... hehehehe I'm liking this more and more.'
The smile on his face couldn't be hidden as he went back to his room and took of his uniform. He directly jumped into the bed as he opened up Sahoy Tahini's Playboy system and when he saw the progress, he was left bewildered.
"Wow... it has only been like, one day and this guy already hit the 5 mark." he muttered and saw a red warning sentence under the rewards message.
Seeing this, he sighed and grabbed his leather pouch before taking out his 10 Zen note. He didn't feel like parting with it, but he shook his head and gave out a mental command.
The instant he did, the note in his hand disappeared and a new system announcement popped up.
[Would you like to convert the currency to other denominations?]
'Yes. Keep a total of 55 braks with you and give the rest back to me. I need them in 1 zen notes and the rest can be in 1 brak coins.' he said mentally and the system screen disappeared for a second before a seven notes fell to the bed along with five brak coins.
He put the money inside his leather pouch before changing the systems from Playboy to Protection system.
He stared at the system screen for a while, not knowing what kind of quest to give. There was no reason to give her any quest as things would just happen eventually, but letting her keep the system for a long time would only hurt Keith's profits as he wouldn't receive anything from her after this.
'Before I do anything drastic, it's better to check out what kind of person she is and the stuff she usually does.' he thought as he summoned his system again and this time, a slight white glow emanated from his body as he gave out an order.
'Give me the information on what she did from the time she got the system. In text format.'
The moment he gave out the command, a long wall of text began form in front of him and he watched it happen with a slight smile on his face.
'Oh man, this is essentially stalking but I don't really plan on harming you with this.' he said to himself as he thought about the priestess and began to read the wall of text which looked more like a detailed diary entry.
At first, his face was neutral, but the more he read, the more disgusted he looked. Once he was done reading everything, he let out a sigh.
"So they had contact with her way before her parents gave her away... these damn groomers. She's long gone now, too late for me to help and even if I try, she'll most certainly report me instead. Haaa... I feel like shit." he grumbled as he stared at the ceiling.
Seconds quickly trickled by and Keith let out one final sigh as he made up his mind.
'I'll make things quick and cut my ties with this girl.'
[Quest Delivered]
[Quest Details: Walk around the city five times to get a sense for your new ability. Do not wear your holy clothes and use civilian clothes instead.]
[Failure to do this quest will result in the user's death.]
Keith then wore his normal shirt and pants before putting on the trench coat that was provided by the protection church. He put his hand under his trench coat and felt his revolver safely lying there.
'I'll trigger the dangers myself. All I need to do is have the intent to murder her and hopefully, her system will tell her to run away.' he thought as he walked out of the room and went straight to the shop that sold masks.
It was a small hawker stall, so Keith had to crouch down to take a good look at the masks that were placed on the cloth that was on the ground. He grabbed two clay masks and looked up at the kid who seemed like he was barely 13 years old.
"How much?"
'Two braks for one mask, sir. If you buy three, I can sell them to you for four braks.' he said confidently, to which Keith simply nodded before he went back to look for another mask.
He looked around for a few seconds before he directly grabbed a 5 brak coin and gave it to the kid, "Here, I like these two masks but I don't like the others. Keep the change, kid."
Before the kid could say anything, Keith stood back up and walked away. The boy then looked around to see if there was anyone who was looking at him, and then packed up his things before he ran back home.
Keith continued to look at his system screen that was showing him Aria's location through text and he silently walked to one of the roads. Soon, he got a chance to wear his mask as there was no one who had an eye on him.
Once he did, he stopped at the side of the street and leaned back against the wall before taking out the newspaper that he had bought in the morning. He acted like he was reading it, but his eyes were on the system screen that was leaking information about her location.
'She'll be here in just a minute.' he thought and saw the headlines on the newspaper. As he was turning the pages to find something interesting, he saw a familiar face appear a hundred meters away.
He stopped reading his newspaper and grabbed his revolver that was inside his trench coat while staring at her.
The image of him shooting her in the head formed in his mind and the moment it did, the girl stopped walking. She stood where she was for a second before running away.
Keith grinned, "Looks like it's working."
