Happy Evil Heartbreaker [Modern LitRPG]

Controller consoles in these games tend to share similarities, so Xanthia, who had a foundation in her previous life, found it easy to get started.

The pivotal moment occurred when, as she observed the boy being flamboyantly slaughtered by the boss, her "Wisdom Root" attribute activated. This allowed her to effortlessly memorize the boss's movements and attacks, enabling her to predict its every move. She had deciphered it all.

The existence of the Wisdom Root attribute enhanced her observation, comprehension, and understanding. As a woman who would never fall in love, she was well-suited to possess such an attribute.

Thus, Xenophon bore witness to an extraordinary scene:

The boss that had just tormented him now found itself facing this seemingly delicate and gentle girl. Yet, in the game, the boss appeared like a foolish oaf, raging incompetently as its health bar steadily dwindled. The girl's playstyle was methodical, as though everything was within her calculations!

Graceful, confident, composed...

Xenophon was utterly astonished!

His stereotype that female players were inept was shattered by this seemingly fragile, yet remarkably strong, elegant girl!

However, what truly endeared her to Xenophon was the infectious joy radiating from the girl as she focused intently on the game.

This was a soulmate, a kindred spirit!

His wariness towards her evaporated entirely. He genuinely wished to befriend such a gaming prodigy!

Indeed, as Xanthia revelled in the game, her happiness levels soared, and the smile on her face never faded.

This smile was undeniably contagious!

When Xanthia finally vanquished the boss, Xenophon was even more elated than she was: "Incredible! Are you a  veteran?"

Xanthia wasn’t exactly an "veteran," but with the continuous buff from the Wisdom Root attribute, her game comprehension was exceptional, and her gameplay fierce. As long as she avoided love, she could always enjoy this advantage.

"Hehe, not really... Say, why don’t we add each other on Synomilía? We could play together in the future," Xanthia finally revealed her true intent.

Xenophon was once again taken aback, wondering if he was dreaming—he had never been asked for his Synomilía by a pretty girl before!

In that moment, he too wanted to ask for her contact information, not because she was attractive, but because her skills had thoroughly impressed him. He wanted to befriend such a high-level player.

If the other person had been a guy, he would have acted long ago. But since she was a girl, he hesitated, fearing rejection.

Often, fate is missed in such hesitations.

Xanthia smoothly obtained his Synomilía, advancing her task progress by 1%. During this proactive approach, she also gained substantial happy points, achieving two goals at once.

After securing it, she left without any lingering feelings, as the tool had served its purpose.

Xenophon had no idea he was merely a tool. He still heard her sweet, soft voice calling him "Hey," dreaming of playing games with the beautiful girl in the future...

That day, he returned to school and shared this dream-like experience with his roommates, making them laugh. "How drunk were you?"

But when he proudly showed them the girl’s Synomilía, his roommates were genuinely amazed. They began to question reality—

Could such a thing really happen, where an unattractive guy is actively asked for his Synomilía by a girl?

Indeed, in his roommates’ eyes, Xenophon was an ugly fellow with a 'bare minimum below average' in looks. How could he have made such a beautiful girl take the initiative?

After her initial success, Xanthia became increasingly confident in her task of proactively asking for Synomilía contacts. She frequently took the initiative.

Though she faced many rejections and awkward situations, as she grew accustomed to rejection, she found herself becoming more resilient.

Once you get over it, you become more open-minded. Rejection doesn’t physically harm you, so why not be bolder?

In reality, most men were quite cooperative. Even those with girlfriends, if the girlfriend happened to step away to the restroom, didn’t turn her down when she asked for their Synomilía.

Many men, when approached in this manner, likely felt a surge of confidence, imagining themselves irresistibly attractive, and remained excited all day.

Unfortunately, there were no follow-ups; they were just tools.

Eventually, Xanthia even dared to approach girls, targeting those who were high in looks and seemingly unapproachable. She would begin with, "Miss, you’re so beautiful. May I add you on Synomilía and get to know you?"

The results were mixed. Some were naturally wary, while others found Xanthia pleasant enough to add her on Synomilía and become friends.

During this proactive approach, Xanthia realised that women were no different; as long as she was thick-skinned and willing to take risks, the gender of her tools didn’t matter.

[ Ding, challenge task completed, reward issued ]

Xanthia spent an afternoon and part of the evening completing the challenge task.

Upon seeing a new positive attribute, "Social Butterfly," on her character attribute panel, she smiled with satisfaction, her happiness levels increasing. She loved the sensation of levelling up and becoming 'stronger'.

She also realised that after completing such a task, even without this attribute, she wouldn’t feel socially anxious around strangers anymore.

However, the challenge task of being approached by 100 strangers remained stagnant. It seemed her current attractiveness and charm levels weren’t quite sufficient, or perhaps the mall wasn’t the best place to be approached.

That night, as she lay in bed, she felt her already frail body utterly exhausted. She decisively converted some "Happy Points" into attribute points and allocated them to "Constitution."

She wasn’t in a rush to boost her attractiveness or charm. A strong body was the foundation of everything. By first increasing "Constitution," and then "Strength," and "Agility," she would feel more secure.

As her constitution increased, Xanthia felt a surge of vitality in her previously weakened body. The negative attribute "Sickly" was completely shattered!

She then spent more happy points to reshape the attribute. Finally, when her accumulated happy points ran out, the "Sickly" attribute transformed into "Healthy Body"!

Now she felt marvellous!

She was no longer the socially anxious weakling but a healthy social butterfly!
