’Fortune Sight, huh…’
Soren wasn’t too surprised that he got a skill after his luck stat reached 100 points. Rather, he was a bit intrigued by this new active skill he got.
One that he couldn’t even evolve using his overpowered GAP stat.
’Let’s see how it works?’
Since he was curious, Soren quickly thought of using the new skill only to see his vision suddenly go grey.
For a moment, he saw the world in black and white, devoid of color like in those 90s movies. Even when he looked at his tent, he saw nothing different, only a colorless world.
’Maybe I need a target?’
Soren thought and quickly took out the Dark Orb he got from Principal Logan before, the one that was given to him by Isabella.
Previously, he could see nothing with his Eye of Insight. But now…
’So golden…does this mean it is a fortune?’
Soren saw that, unlike the world around, the Orb in his hand was flowing with a golden aura.
This really set his heart at ease.
Although he knew that Logan was a very good person with a good personality in the game and wouldn’t trick him, being able to confirm it on his own was a bonus, regardless.
’Okay, wasted too much time already. Let’s look at the reward I got before now.’
As much as he was happy to get the new luck-based skill, Soren had other things to do.
So, the moment he entered his tent, he gave an order,
’System, show me what this “Harem King” title is about.’
First things first, Soren asked what mattered to him the most.
It was fine and cool to get Elise, but it would be a nightmare if she was against him having a harem.
As Lyra said, if she resorted to using her background, Soren would be caught in a quagmire he wouldn’t easily escape.
In fact, he went all the way with her only because he knew her feelings were deep enough for him, and she knew about him and Aurelia already.
Otherwise, he would have to think ten times before committing to any girl. It wasn’t without reason that he was going slow with others.
The moment Soren gave the order, a panel appeared before his eyes.
—
[Title: Harem King]
[Effect: Increases loyalty and synergy among harem members while reducing internal conflict. The higher their admiration, the more they become tolerant and understanding of each other under its effect.]
—
’Hmm…just as I thought.’
Soren slowly digested the information in front, his face lighting up unconsciously.
Really, this title was there to help him consolidate his harem. His system must have known his dilemma, too, as he was against using items like Twin Ring of Lust.
Still, this title worked better only if his girls’ admiration for him was high enough.
’Well, it seems I need to work a bit harder.’
Soren made a silent resolve before opening his status panel.
Besides the whopping 94 free stat points remaining, he also got 1 extra point in his Invariable stat before.
—
-Invaiable Stat-
> GAP: 1
> CRITICAL HIT: 2
—
[Critical Hit (Invariable Stat): A luck-based stat that, when triggered, deals 4 times your total damage while partially ignoring the target’s defense.]
—
’Damn…isn’t this a bit OP?’
Although Soren could guess the effect already, seeing it with his own eyes was something else.
’Four times the total damage. How powerful will that be?’
If he used his SS-rank Helios Piercer and also activated this stat, wouldn’t he pulverize even that Thornscale Drake now?
’Gulp…this is just too attractive a reward, and this is only the Critical Hit. If I got another point in the GAP stat then?’
Soren couldn’t imagine how powerful he would be in his SSS-rank form.
Well, he doubted he would even be able to activate it with his current self, but still, men could dream, couldn’t they?
’Even for this stat, increasing my luck points was totally worth it.’
Soren cancelled his panel and took a deep breath to calm his nerves. He still had another reward to check after all.
’System, how does this new “Link” feature work? Can I… really use all of Elise’s class skills?’
This was what he wanted to know the most.
In fact, he still couldn’t believe it. If he really could gain access to Elise’s skills, then… was he still an Archer?
Besides, could he still use GAP Stat on those borrowed skills?
Just thinking about it made Soren nervous as he waited for the prompt to appear.

Ding!
[The new feature ’Link’ allows you to share your Harem member’s Class skills as long as your level, stat, and attributes meet the requirement.]
[Since the skills are being borrowed, they are not your own skills yet, and GAP cannot be used to evolve them one rank higher.]
[Do you want to access Elise Vans’ Class Skills?]
—
“…”
’Well, that was to be expected.’
Soren was a bit disappointed that he couldn’t use GAP on them, but thinking about it, it made sense.
For once, Elise definitely had one or more SS-rank skills. So if he could use GAP on them, wouldn’t that already mean access to SSS-rank skills?
Another issue was the evolution through GAP itself.
From his experience, GAP didn’t simply increase a skill from S to SS. It pushed it into an ultimate state, tailored to his current condition.
So whether he could even properly use that evolved form was questionable.
And besides, even without relying on his invariable stat, having access to skills from a different class was already overpowering enough.
’System, access Elise Vans’ class skills immediately.’
Not to mention, this opened up countless possibilities.
For once, it significantly increased Soren’s chances of raiding a dungeon alone in the future.
The possibility of acquiring multiple identities… and the damn ability to snatch opportunities he wouldn’t have even considered before.
As a gamer who had played this game before, he obviously knew far more than just information about girls.
He simply never cared before, because those paths were out of his reach and too dangerous to tackle with his class and identity.
Now that Soren thought about it, he really had been held back by his class. Archer, wasn’t it?
