East Meet West

100- Mock battles and the Speculation 1

“Hey, are you also participating in mock battle?”

I turned towards the speaker and found that it was a little Lamia. I replied to her with a smile,

“Yes, I am.”

At the same time, I used ‘Observation skill’ on her.

‘ding’

‘Low level Demi-Monster stage monster.’

Wow, she sure is talented. Because from the looks of it, she is almost my age.

Hearing that, she nodded and replied with an ‘OH’

After that, we did not speak. But maybe she felt awkward and as she was standing next to me and we both were quiet, so to ease up she spoke again,

“I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Julie Lami. What’s yours?”

Since a person has asked a question it would be rude not to answer, so I told her my name and then we chatted for few minutes, and soon one of the instructors started calling everyone to come and draw one number each.

“Next”

Finally, it was my turn and I drew a number and it was – 251

After that, I returned to my position and it was Julie’s turn. She went and drew a number. She came to my side and said,

“Hey, my number is 253, what’s yours?”

I told her that my number and then I looked at her and asked,

“Hey, are you nervous?”

I have been observing Julie for some time and I could feel that she was nervous for some reason.

Hearing my question, Julie smiled wryly and replied

“How can I be not nervous? I have never fought someone so I am scared. Please don’t laugh.”

The thing about Julie is that she is a lot honest.

But my character has changed so much that I feel that Julie has some ulterior motives or she is a good liar. Maybe I am correct? Or maybe I am not?

That's how much has my recent life events changed me and my character.

But of course, I did not shun her away because of my suspicions. Even if she is acting or she is honest, I just have to keep up my guard. That's it.

I smiled and told her,

“It’s ok there is no need to get nervous. Once you fight with someone, all your nervousness will disappear and as you fight with more opponents, you will soon gain combat experience.”

She reluctantly nodded and then we waited for the battles to start.

Julie is a cute girl, well practically I am in an Anime world and for me, any anime girl would be the most beautiful, so let’s not stick to the ‘beauty’ topic.

To the usual beings in this world, they might be able to differentiate between each woman based on beauty, temperament, and other factors. But for me practically any woman would be a beauty, of course, I can differentiate between a beautiful and ugly woman.

Normally, if people compare women on beauty, then they will divide them into 3 categories:

1 Beautiful.

2 Norman or Average.

3 Ugly.

And if this was a normal human world, then I would have also agreed to these categories, but since I am in the anime world, for me there are only 2 categories.

The first category would be Beautiful women and Normal/average-looking women. Because I cannot differentiate between them. And the second category would be Ugly women, which I can differentiate based on certain things.

But the only con of Julie is that she is also a Loli.

Yeah, she is also a Loli just like Armelia.

For me, any female is equally beautiful in this world, which means I won't be differentiating any women based on beauty. For me any average looking or breathe taking beauty is the same.

But I too have my preferences. And I already have a Loli in my harem, so it makes me reluctant to start any romantic conversation with Julie.

Yes, even if we met for the first time, I did not forget that in my list of goals there is ‘I want a harem’ in it. And any woman you meet can be considered as a candidate for the harem. It's not like there is a restriction.

.

Finally, I sighed. It's not like Julie will for love me, right?

I mean maybe she wants to be my friend or has some other motives, so it’s not a guarantee that she will fall for me.

So, it’s a 50/50.

Anyway, I put this matter behind. And waited for the battle to start.

After 10-15 minutes, every one had drawn numbers and an instructor was assigned to our group. The instructor took us to a fighting stage and then repeated the rules and & instructions related to the fight.

After that, she got off the stage and started calling numbers

“Number 200 and 326, get on the stage.”

Two lamias climbed onto the stage and the instructor shouted,

“Are you both ready?”

The two Lamias nodded and the instructor shouted ‘Begin’.

But the match did not even last for 5 seconds, one of Lamia panicked and she lost her balance, her opponent took advantage of it and the match ended.

“Number 200 and 326, come here.”

The instructor called both of them and pointed out their mistakes, and called for the next participants,

“Number 201 and 325, get on the stage.”

This battle was similar to the last one, the only difference being that it lasted for 10 seconds.

And the battle after that was also similar and I started getting bored. Then suddenly the system notification rang,

‘ding’

‘MP has been fully recovered.’

Oh...right I forgot to use my MP.

In these past few days, I have been consuming MP and in return, I am getting [Free stat points].

The system has already told me that there are many ways to gain [Free stat points].

The first way is through leveling up.

Second way is though ‘Extracurricular activities’ [Sex/ Intercourse/ Dual cultivation]

The third way is through using 10% of MP can be converted to 1-3 [Free stat points] randomly or using 100% of MP and get 1 [Free stat point] for each 100 MP used (Since my MP limit is 3800, then after using 100% of my MP, I will get 38 [Free stat points]).

Of course, there are other ways to gain [Free stat points] but the system is unable to provide any information on that. So, I will have to find the answers on my own.

Since, I am unable to kill any monster, leveling up is not possible.

Yeah, I could opt for ‘Extracurricular activities’, but due to my physical condition, I don’t have the mood to engage in those and I would like to graduate from being a ‘Virgin’ only when I get 18 (Still sticking to previous world customs and rules.)

So, I am using the third way to gain [Free stat points].

Since I am in the Lamia tribe, I hardly have any work to do and I am also not using any skills since there is no need to use them, and this leads to my MP being full. But when my MP is full, the time after that is being wasted.

So, every time I am using 20% of MP to gain [Free stat points]. And then passively recovering MP. Once the MP is fully recovered, once again I use 20% of MP to gain [Free stat points] and the cycle repeats.

In a single day, I am able to recover about 3400 to 4000 MP. So, instead of wasting the MP, I am efficiently using MP to gain [Free stat points]. And in these few days, I have already gained around 96 [Free stat points]. But deep inside there is a regret that for the 2 months that I have been unconscious, I could have gained more [Free stat points] but, it was all wasted.
