The Sinners' Queen 4 Aftertaste 1

The next day dawned a very fine weather. It was beautiful and peaceful Sunday.

The moment she opened her eyes, the noisy little thing inside her head immediately scolded her like there's no tomorrow.

Without getting up from her bed, she tiredly greeted, "Good morning."

'What's the difference between stupidest and most stupid?' She grumbled.

The soreness from her lower body was still menacing her. Due to this, she had no plan to get up anytime soon. Instead, she planned to think more about her life.

She breathed deeply. Even now, it's still hard for her to accept that she just lost her chast.i.ty to a random person a.s.signed by a seemingly demonic existence. This point brought up her anger to the peak. However, it immediately dispersed once she thought that she's the one who's actually at fault because she let a d.a.m.nable thing called system to take advantage of her in her most vulnerable state.

"I'm really the stupidest." She mockingly said to herself.

"I did something completely nonsensical because of my momentary fear of my debts and the unknown," she softly reflected.

The system harshly lashed out.

She angrily retorted, "I left the person so I'm no longer related to him. Just treat that d.a.m.n fiasco as a farce that never happened!"

Just having the images of her wantonness last evening, with her even holding something shameful in her mouth, was enough to make her embarra.s.sed all her life. The mere thought made her cry again.

The system didn't add how the girl's delusion of severed connection was actually impossible because traces of her had been left everywhere. That drugged young master it had randomly a.s.signed as the first coital partner of its host will sooner or later pop out of nowhere to surprise her. It thought that its host has a long way to go. However, the inevitable is her path to immorality and pleasure. She had already awakened to that kind of pleasure, no matter what she says.

"And how do I do that?"

She ignored the system and did as told to summon her records. With or without her eyes closed she could see the details listed.

.....

....

Her mind silently looked away when her eyes caught the skill Lovemaking from the list. She's not stupid, not to the extent of not knowing that it referred to her skills in that d.a.m.nable activity she did last night with a man.

She bit her lip and closed her eyes. However, she could only resume looking at it because the system nagged her to do so. When she checked, under the main tab 'User', there were actually several menus under which were:

- Inventory

- Shop

- Skill Trees

- Missions

- List of Partners

She firmly refused to browse the last one.

According to the system, Pleasure Points are valuable because it is the only currency that she could use to exchange for good items and skills. When she checked the shop, basically many items from cosmetics to weapons could be found there. Even nuclear bombs and missiles were child plays. It only depended whether she has the points to buy or not.

"I'm just a student. Why should I do that? It's not like I would be seducing people from my school, right? If so, I won't do that. Sorry," she declared.

The system scoffed.

Was this some sort of revelation or threat?

Sofony didn't know and refused to waste time thinking of something that should only be a product of imagination.

"Shut up! Shut up!" She even tried to cover her ears but it's for naught because the d.a.m.nable thing was directly whispering hurtful facts in her mind.

The system went on,

"Shut up! I won't be doing it with anyone anymore in this life! So just shut up! Shut up! Shut up!" Her cheeks burning red, she yelled nonstop and finally succeeded on silencing it - though, before that, it did its best to say how her vow would be impossible to accomplish ever.

Once she gained enough clarity, she went back to exploring her interface and shopped for some attribute candies and skills upgrades.

The prices of attribute candies started from +1 which cost 1 Point. Every addition doubles the previous price. For example, when she tried to increase her 7 strength to make its value 10, she had to fork out 1 + 2 + 4, in total was 7 Pleasure Points for the increase. The first two candies she received from the system were odd though. Her intelligence and stamina had both increased by five. Maybe because those candies were from the starter's pack.

As for the skills, it's actually the same pattern except the base points were much higher. For the first upgrade in the grade, it only cost 50 Pleasure Points but also doubles every upgrade. One example was her Studying Skills which started from C+. She upgraded it three times to make it B+. The points spent were 50 + 100 + 200.

Now her stats looked like this.

....

She tried to feel the changes in her body but aside from feeling a bit stronger, there was really nothing else. Even so, she was quite amazed and realized that the system was really real.

All this while, the system was monitoring her actions and it was quite satisfied with the speed of adaptation of the host. However, it did its best to force her to upgrade the Lovemaking skills at least once. Left with no choice but surrender, Sofony begrudgingly made the accursed skill reach flat D and left herself a meager 424 Points.

Sofony had enough so she yelled, "Shut up! It's good enough! d.a.m.n it! It's not like I would be prost.i.tuting myself so just stop!"

The system gritted its imaginary teeth in indignation because it could no longer budge its host to do another upgrade. It could only grumble to itself that its host was very stupid.

Sofony had thought of a plausible excuse. "Just be content with that, okay? I want to focus on studying so my highest Skill should be that one. Aside from that, imagine what would happen to me if I'm only left with very few points. Surely there would be many unforeseeable scenarios in the future so I have to be prepared. I could only stockpile points to make sure."

Sofony ignored it and then closed her eyes to think of what she would do from now on.

Maybe she should just sell the house left to her by her mother and then relocate somewhere.

'My father loves drinking and gambling to the point that he incurred a million credits debt. He ran away and could no longer be found. Now all responsibility is thrown to me.'

'The loan sharks will surely come knocking on my door one of these days.'

'What should I do?'

She really didn't know.

'Can I run away as well?'

'I'm alone so it should be okay, right?'

When she realized she's a student with records from her school and munic.i.p.ality, the idea only sounded stupid and she stopped thinking about it.
