'Hopeless Romantic' +1 / Is This Thing's Art Style Kind of Off?

[Civil War: 77 (You are the Civil War Phantom God)]

[Love-struck Brain: 70 (You're extremely Love-struck Brain)]

[ Those with Nepo Baby: 60 (You have a lot of connections)]

You can now use Reading Points to allocate skill points to optional Skill.

His gaze swept over the text from top to bottom, and apart from the mere three Skill listed, there was a larger reminder text, as if afraid she hadn't heard the previous instructions clearly.

Sakayanagi Arisu isn't actually unable to understand what Skill and stat allocation mean. Although she doesn't play games much and doesn't interact with others much, she still has the basic common sense.

Using points to enhance corresponding Skill is simply a matter of this.

Only...

"--What kind of weird Skill are these?!"

The Little Princess couldn't help but curse out loud.

Chapter 147 'Love-struck Brain' +1

Sakayanagi Arisu had expected to see Skill she was familiar with.

Such as 'Academic Ability' in a school evaluation system, or 'Chess' which she is most familiar with, or even more broadly, 'Rhetoric'.

But to her utter surprise, the newly developed Skill section listed these three bizarre Skill!

Want some more?

Who the hell wants to allocate skill points to those three Skills?!

Sakayanagi Arisu was furious.

No, why? On what grounds?

You won't show me my abundant talents, you won't show me my innate gifts.

You're telling me I only have these three Skills?

"Huff, huff, huff, huff--" Her barren chest heaved up and down, and Sakayanagi Arisu clenched her teeth.

It was absolutely intentional.

This damn Diary was written on purpose.

Upon careful reflection, it turns out to be a combination of factors: Civil War, Love-struck Brain, Nepo Baby...

Aren't these three Skill exactly the titles that bastard in the diary used to describe himself?!

They call me Civil War Phantom God, they call me Love-struck Brain, they call me Nepo Baby.

So, it seems this Skill only displays information he's mentioned?

His teeth clenched, his fists hardened, and his anger level rose.

"..."

However, after a long, drawn-out breath, Sakayanagi Arisu quickly returned to calm.

Very well, let's add another one to this list.

My mental notebook has already filled countless entries for the guy behind the Diary, but today, I'll add one more.

Raising her hand to pat her cheek, Sakayanagi Arisu's mind began to work again.

Today's diary entries were irrelevant; she had absolutely no interest in the so-called Girl Band.

Whether she's God-man not has nothing to do with her.

It's quite amusing if you just treat it as a joke, but unfortunately, she's recently become quite upset about the Diary showing signs of her "falling in love with someone else."

So after scanning today's diary, she casually forgot about its contents.

Hmph, go ahead and help me all you want, I don't care about this kind of thing at all.

Compared to the irrelevant contents of the diary, what attracts her more now is indeed this 'added point'.

Although she had a lot of complaints about the three Skill displayed, the Diary wouldn't listen to her no matter how much she complained. If the content displayed in the Skill list really did change according to the diary entries, then she could try to subtly influence her by leaving a message later.

But that happened later.

If you don't want to wait, then try adding points now.

Aside from the Diary's built-in Cognition Filter and its ability to never be lost, to be honest, after two months, this was perhaps the first time she had the opportunity to personally experience the Diary's special features.

Really... can I add some points?

Sakayanagi Arisu hesitated.

' The Diary is special, but the person behind Diary just happened to be lucky enough to get Diary.'

This has been her understanding ever since she received the Diary.

After all, judging from the statements written in the Diary, it's hard to imagine what this guy could be so capable of.

No matter how you look at it, he's just a guy who talks nonsense and yet got lucky enough to get the Diary.

Although he said he would get a reward for writing in his diary, to be honest, she had never heard him brag about his rewards so far.

Whether it's from this extremely guarded attitude of protecting their true identity and not wanting to expose it, or from that subconscious self-restraint...

This guy is definitely not a genius.

A true genius should be as lofty and unparalleled as her.

Therefore, she never really thought highly of him from beginning to end.

Although I read his diary every day, it was just something I did out of boredom.

... As for the times she was ridiculed...

That's just because the other party is too much of a rat!

Her failure cannot be considered a failure at all, as she hid it so well and so thoroughly!

However, the person Sakayanagi Arisu always looked down on was the one behind the diary, that nasty, gossipy guy who liked to mock her.

She never underestimated the power of Diary, which could influence everyone around her simply by being turned to a page.

... Anyway, she never underestimated him.

Sakayanagi Arisu no doubt that as long as she clicked on the numbers after the three Skills on the page and chose to add points to them, her 'Skill' would really change accordingly.

That's why she hesitated.

After all, neither Civil War nor Love-struck Brain are normal Skill.

Moreover, the stats for these two things are strangely high; it feels like it was done on purpose.

Aside from those two terrible Skill, the only thing that seems slightly better is that they're just Nepo Baby.

Why did she order this?

Don't even mention that she's not Nepo Baby at all. Even if she were, she'd just give up on herself and pretend she's a Nepo Baby!

What can you do by adding points to this Skill?

Let her father, the chairman of the board, use his authority? Are you kidding me!

She could do that kind of thing, that kind of thing, even without adding anything!

Oh no.

She would never do something like that, right?!

"..."

But leaving a new feature unused feels a bit like a waste...

It feels strange not to add a little something.

Or... should we just pick one at random?

She's not some kind of Civil War Civil War Phantom God, so why would she attack her own teammates for no reason?

She wouldn't choose the option for those with Nepo Baby; she's always disliked the term "Nepo Baby," so naturally, she wouldn't add that option.

Well... the only option seems to be being Love-struck Brain.

... It should be alright, right?

Although it says that their "Love-struck Brain" level is as high as 70, if 100 is the upper limit, then it does seem very high.

To be honest, Sakayanagi Arisu didn't feel at all that she had any tendency to Love-struck Brain.

The last time someone around us brought up the topic of romance was probably when Masumi was being disobedient.

If I remember correctly, I vehemently refuted her and criticized the Masumi.

How could someone like me be a Love-struck Brain?

"..."

Okay, it's decided.

Try clicking it.

Although I don't think I'm Love-struck Brain at all, the Diary shows that I can add points, which means it's confident that it can let me experience the changes in Love-struck Brain.

Well, although I have absolutely no interest in romance, if I could experience what it's like to be "Love-struck Brain," it might not be entirely unacceptable.

With a slight smile, Sakayanagi Arisu picked up a pen and, trying to understand it in her own way, wrote '+1' after the numbers associated with her Love-struck Brain.

"Changing the 'Love-struck Brain' stat will consume 10 Reading Points. Add points?"

"Yes," she whispered in affirmation.

And so, the number Love-struck Brain" silently jumped up to '71'.

Chapter 148 Isn't the art style of this thing a little off?

Asakusa Toru had no idea what tricks the Diary had up its sleeve this time; he was still looking at today's settlement rewards.

"..."

Today's reward is... quite unexpected.

Well, it was less of an accident and more of a feeling of dread.

Because the name of this award is very strange.

'Anyone will become a loving mother to you (1/1)'

A very, very long name, and a very, very scary effect.

Wait, isn't the art style a bit off?

Ah?

Did I wander into the set of the Inner World?

Asakusa Toru's head was still buzzing.

Although, in the two months since then, the Diary has given out some rewards that were a little bit off.

Things like Cold Medicine that would be more effective if made into suppositories, little leather shoes stolen from somewhere, someone's maid outfit, and a quirky prop that reads as a swimsuit but is actually a band-aid.

But those are just trivial, playful things; they might seem interesting at first glance, but they're actually not that interesting.

The only thing that could be associated with SeSe was his White Room Membership Card.

He can bully Miss Amazawa, who's always dreaming, all he wants inside.

But that was just a bonus from the White Room, merely the effect that an 'S' grade item should have.

Essentially, the effect of this Membership Card is still to strengthen the body.

Instead of playing around with women.

There is a fundamental difference between direct effects and incidental effects.

The White Room could also be said to have no inherent purpose; it's just that the owner executed it well and developed a unique way to use it.

But no matter how you look at it, isn't this app just a hypnosis app?!
