62. The Second Skill and the Exhibition

Compared to recent quests, the base reward felt a bit light, but with the potential for penalty-free additional quests and a Random Item Draw ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠(1x), I immediately texted Yunah noona back saying I'd go to the exhibition.

But something nagged at me like I'd forgotten... what was it? I racked my brain, feeling like I'd overlooked something important, and before I knew it, dawn had broken and my shift replacement arrived at the convenience store.

I handed over smoothly without issues and headed back to my rooftop room. That's when it hit me—what had been flickering in my mind all shift long. It was the Random Item Draw (1x) tucked away safely in my inventory since completing the "Exposure Play" quest at the pub last time.

After leaving the pub and having that sticky fuck with Jia at the motel, I'd been alternating between her and her mom, cutting into my personal time, so naturally I'd forgotten about it. Early morning after work was my one uninterrupted slice of alone time, so I quickly showered, flopped onto the bed, and prepped to roll the gacha.

A massive roulette wheel popped up in front of me, spinning with a charrlk sound. It slowed gradually, the clicks spacing out longer. I'd rolled gacha enough times to know not to get my hopes up, but excitement bubbled anyway, my breath quickening.

The next instant, it stopped dead, flashy effects bursting over the lens to reveal the prize.

I stared mesmerized at the gleaming Random Skillbook worth a whopping 150 points, then snapped out of it and immediately used it for another gacha roll. My gut feeling was good right now...

Unlike the wheel, this one flipped through book pages with a charrlk animation, and soon the results appeared.

Unlike my first skill, Lewd Gaze, this passive Female Arousal Pheromone was perfect for my goal of banging as many hot women as possible. With my already handsome looks (86%) plus pheromones stirring up affection and horniness, seducing them would be a breeze. I couldn't help grinning.

And leveling it up could push them to Heat Stage 2? Looked like picking up chicks would be effortless from now ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠on.

Before crashing, I pulled up my stat window to confirm the new addition.

Satisfied with the beefier stat window compared to when I first got the Yas System, I took off my glasses and slipped under the covers. The killer gacha pulls made my exhausted body from the hectic schedule feel even cozier as the blanket enveloped me. I slowly closed my eyes and drifted off.

Three days after snagging my second skill, Saturday rolled around—the day I was set to hit the photo exhibition with Yunah noona. In the meantime, I'd milked that second skill for all it was worth. Starting from lunch that very day I got Female Arousal Pheromone, Hyunjeong unnie and Jia kept sidling up close, sniffing deep with slutty looks on their faces.

They cooed about my "nice (=cock-hardening) smell" and groped me extra ripe, away from prying eyes. Skill confirmed effective. The only "downside" was those two getting even hornier from the pheromones? I was excited yet worried about their reactions once I leveled it up.

Shaking off thoughts of the past few days, I got up earlier than usual since I was grabbing lunch with Yunah noona after the exhibition. Heading down from the rooftop, I bumped into Jia coming out of ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠the landlord's house on the first floor.

She always dressed neat, but spotting my semi-formal fit for the exhibition, she grinned wickedly. She sidled up, stroked my crotch, and purred.

"Oppa looks extra hot today? Makes me wanna fuck you right now❤️"

"Can't, got plans. But I'll pound you raw tomorrow, so hands off..."

She moans like a slut every time I thrust, yet talks like she's the one fucking me... Thinking I needed to lay down the law someday, I peeled her off. Then she kneaded her plump tits and teased.

"So when you coming back tonight? I'm in heat already❤️"

"Text you the second I get home... Gotta run, appointment's almost up."

Brushing off Jia's stickier-than-usual seduction, I passed through the green gate and hit the main road. Five minutes down the narrow alley, there was Yunah noona waiting ahead on the big street.

Thin blouse hugging her killer curves, short miniskirt flaunting her legs. We'd been too busy with her shoots and modeling for proper fuck-buddy sex—just calls and texts—so seeing her felt great. Mutual, apparently; she waved and called out happily.

"Hyungsik! Long time no see. Missed you❤️"

"Same here. Thought I'd forget your face with how slammed you've been lol."

Since we'd already fucked, she melted into me like lovers. I hugged back tight, sneakily squeezing her firm ass.

"Sniff sniff... did you put on cologne, Hyungsik?"

"Nah... why? Weird?"

"No, just..."

She trailed off, blushing. My Female Arousal Pheromone was hitting her full force. We caught up on stuff we couldn't over phone or text, hopped a taxi that pulled up, and headed to Apgujeong for the exhibition.

In the cab to Apgujeong, Yunah noona kept inhaling my pheromones, her arousal building as we chatted. We arrived at the building sooner than expected.

Inside, a sign directed to the second-floor photo exhibition. But the pic on it looked familiar...

"Hyungsik, isn't that us in the photo?"

"Looks like it."

Faces shadowed, but anyone could tell it was us embracing. Last time Joo-hyuk emailed about using pics, I'd said yeah to all casually... Didn't expect it on the sign too. A bit ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠embarrassed my photo was public, I headed upstairs with Yunah noona.
