Flashy Adventurer System : Show Off to Get Stronger! - Chapter 490

Chapter 490: Flashy Adventurer System Level 4
Utterly shocked about what happened, Shye could only watch as Reginald strode out of the inn’s room—a scowl on his face.

‘R-Regi is connected to the old man? That’s why he said we’re allies?’

Finally, after learning a little more about his division’s lazy appointed deputy leader, Shye didn’t know what to feel.

His connection to the old man and the fact that he acquired the Flashy Adventurer System from him was Shye’s most closely guarded secret.

Therefore, upon discovering that he had somehow ended up in the same guild as one of the old man’s apparent “lackeys,” Shye found himself at a loss for how to proceed.

Should he ask Regi for more information about the old man’s plans?

‘This is too much of a coincidence, no?’ Shye pondered upon regaining his wits. ‘Maybe this is all planned by the old man?’

‘Sigh…guess I’ll just try to ask Regi later. For now, I should claim my rewards.’

[Would you like to claim Reward 1: 1,000,000 System Points? Y/N]

[Y]

[Congratulations! 1,000,000 System Points have been added to your account!]

Confirming that the system points have indeed been added, Shye took a deep breath.

‘This is it…I can upgrade the system to level four…’

He was a bit scared to do so, though, as with every upgrade, the pain he had to endure intensified.

At this rate, the system upgrade would be more dangerous than hunting monstrous creatures.

Unfortunately, he had no choice but to move forward. If he didn’t, he would likely fail the upcoming mandatory quests, leading to penalties that would almost certainly result in a cycle of continuous failures.

If such an event were to occur, he would wave goodbye to any chance of finding his parents and achieving his dream life.

Just thinking about such things made Shye inwardly shiver in horror.

After being in the spotlight for too long, it was truly difficult for him to fade back to mediocrity.

It was better to grit his teeth and face the challenges head-on.

‘Let’s do this…’

Setting up the Small Camouflage Camp inside the room to suppress any noise and light that would come from the system upgrade, Shye tapped on the upgrade button.

[Would you like to upgrade the Flashy Adventurer System to level four for 1,000,000 points? Y/N]

[Y]

Surprisingly, this time, the black aura didn’t immediately emerge from inside him, causing Shye to feel confused as he stood inside the camp, looking around while waiting for changes to occur.

What he didn’t notice was that his eyes were slowly turning pitch black.

Soon after, once the irises of his eyes were completely taken over by the darkness, his pupils turned red.

Only then did the black aura start to emerge from his heart, shrouding the entire camp.

A few moments later, he began to feel sharp pains all over his body. Even his little brother was not spared.

As a result, within just a minute, Shye’s consciousness was in shambles, on the verge of fading at any moment.

Naturally, since he didn’t know what would happen should he pass out, Shye didn’t dare faint.

He knelt, rolled on the ground, twitched like a dying fish, and drooled—every pathetic action imaginable—as he subconsciously struggled to endure the excruciating pain.

However, it still wasn’t enough as oblivion seemed way too determined to take him.

In the end, when his body could no longer endure, memories of Maia, Shirley, his parents, and his friends resurfaced in his mind, helping him cling to the last fragments of his consciousness.

Still, everything he had was only able to help him last for an hour.

Unfortunately, the pain lasted much longer this time, hence, Shye ultimately succumbed to the pain and passed out.

Naturally, not knowing what had happened, the scene in which he found himself inside a luxurious mansion, drinking wine while gazing at mountains of gold coins, felt incredibly real to him.

“Shye? What’s wrong?”

A familiar voice as soothing as that of an angel sounded beside him, filling his heart with indescribable warmth.

Glancing sideways, Shye saw Shirley looking at him with an alluring smile, a bottle of premium wine in her hands.

After pouring him another cup, Shirley leaned in close and whispered in his ear: “Hey, until when will you drink? Let’s do it already…”

Hearing such heavenly words, Shye immediately agreed.

They then proceeded to a luxurious room with a large, comfortable bed in the center and dim red lighting that enhanced the mood for such deeds.

At this point, it was impossible for Shye to immediately notice that something was wrong, hence, for hours, the two lovebirds made sweet love to each other without even resting after each passionate round.

After about six hours, another person entered the room—someone he would never have expected to see wearing such revealing clothes: Wendy.

‘No, this isn’t right…’

This time, Shye realized that something was wrong, allowing him to remember that he was in the middle of a system upgrade.

His morals permitted him to make love with Shirley but not with both Shirley and Wendy together.

Unfortunately, he soon realized he did not have control over his body the entire time.

Hence, he was forced to witness the twisted and debauched scenario of himself, his lover, and his friend engaging in such lascivious activities.

The torture didn’t end there.

Soon after, a new girl he knew entered every subsequent hour.

Shye could feel the sweet sensations, yet, it was hard for him to succumb to lust as there was someone he feared would enter: his little sister.

Therefore, even amidst such sinful pleasure, Shye managed to keep a clear head, hoping fervently for the heavenly scenario for his body but a hellish one for his mind to come to an end.

“No… NO!! NO!!!” Shye screamed in horror as an ashen-haired young woman stood at the door.

Luckily for him, just before the young woman took her clothes off, his crazy dream ended.

Before he knew it, his consciousness returned to his main body.

“Haaaah…Haaaah…”
