"I'm not going to talk to you anymore, breast fiend." Logan pouted and scooted her chair away as far as she could.
I had pulled my hand back after rubbing her for a bit. I did not feel bad in the least because it was her fault in the first place for pinching my thigh.
Logan turned her attention to Ms. Rachel who's currently teaching math to the class and pretended to ignore my existence.
Seeing that Logan is no longer in a playful mood, I gave up on taking advantage of her. I then placed my chin on my arms before trying to give Ms. Rachel my attention. Although she is our homeroom teacher, she is also our mathematics teacher.
"Bla bla bla… Bla bla." I zoned out and I found my eyes staring at Ms. Rachel's breasts once again. Her words just brush past me.
I shook my head in an attempt to focus on the lecture. Yet, my attempt was fruitless. This wasn't the first time that I had a hard time focusing in class.
In the past, I would have no problem concentrating in class. In elementary, my classmates would look up to me as the smartest student. I was even an honor student back in middle school.
But once I entered high school, I realized that I had developed a problem: I have a hard time learning if I'm currently lusting after someone. I did try to suppress my lusting urge, but I couldn't, no matter how much I tried. If an alluring girl enters my line of sight, she will no doubt have my attention.
"Sigh." I let out a silent sigh reached in my desk where my textbooks were stored. If I could not learn from Ms. Rachel, I might as well read over the textbook and try to learn the materials myself. As she said, midterms are coming up, and I'll fail if I do not put in the work.
My hand grabbed the math textbook and slowly pulled it out. Probably because I'm dreading to read it myself, the textbook seemed to be quite heavy.
I gently placed it on my desk in order to not make any sound and disturb my classmates. Just as I reached out my hand to open the textbook, the Erotica System UI filled my vision.
[ Introduction to calculus book detected. Would you like to filter and learn the information? Costs: 1 Erotica System Point. ]
Seeing the Erotica System coming to save the day, I became ecstatic. I did remember that the Erotica Shop will allow me to comprehend a book in exchange for System Points, but I didn't know this counts. Plus, it just costs 1 system point!
If I did take a whirl on learning the materials myself, I would probably die of boredom! Seeing that I can save hours and hours of study time, I agreed to trade in the Erotica Point without hesitation.
Although saving up for Superpowers seemed like a good idea, I didn't give a sh*t about it at the moment. I wanted to experience these small things first.
[ Introduction to calculus learned. Remaining Erotica System Points: 1 ]
"That's it?" I titled my head in confusion. I didn't get a headache or anything as shown in many novels when their head gets drilled with information. Did I really learn it? I didn't get duped by the Erotica System, right?
Not convinced, I selected a random page in the textbook and flipped to it. I chose the first differential sample problem I saw and read the question.
It wanted me to find the area change of a square if the sides changed by 1%. Although the class learned this before, I didn't. Or at least, I shouldn't have. When we were learning about this section, I was zoned out. I even failed the quiz miserably.
I looked at the problem for a few more seconds, feeling that something odd is currently happening in my head.
Then, it happened.
Seeing the problem now, I felt as if my mind cleared up and I could easily envision the whole concept in my head.
Somehow, my unconsciousness had served up the information that I'd never even imprinted into my brain. All I needed to do was to ask for the information, and it'll instantly bubble up in my frontal lobes and jumble together to provide me with the answer.
"The area will change by 2%..." I was shocked at how fast I calculated it. But given that it was one of the simplest sample questions, I wanted to test it out a little bit more.
I skipped a few problems and went straight for the 21st problem: It was to find the error margin that can be made in the radius of 12 inches so that the volume will not change by more than 3%.
"The largest error margin is 0.00239 ft…" Right after reading it, the answer was already floating in my head. This is clearly like having a calculator sitting in my head.
What surprised me more about the newfound information, though, was that I was able to calculate it so precisely and so quickly. I felt enriched and profound. This was the feeling that I've lost back when I was in middle school and elementary. My mind is clear and any information that I want would be there for the taking.
"Does anyone want to come up here and do this problem?" Rachel suddenly asked the class and waited for a volunteer.
Like many highschoolers, nobody wanted to go up and attempt to solve the problem. What if they made a blunder and lost face? There weren't any volunteers, and they sat still in their seats, scared that Rachel would call on them.
"Anyone?" Rachel scanned the room with an unsatisfied face. She wasn't blaming them, though. She is blaming herself for not knowing how to make her students be more engaged in class. She is a new teacher and she still had many things to learn.
"I'll do it." Seeing that no one was volunteering, I stood up and walked towards the board. I was excited and wanted to try out my newfound knowledge.
Rachel looked at me in surprise. She was lecturing this kid not too long ago! Now, he was saving the class by volunteering… but can he even do it? She doubted it. This student scored really low through the whole school year. Perhaps he was just volunteering because he's late this morning. Believing that she had come to the correct conclusion, Rachel said some words just in case he failed.
"That's great! This problem is quite hard, so don't worry even if you get it wrong. All that matters is that you attempt it."
That's what Rachel said, but I didn't agree with her on the 'hard' part. The problem on the board looked a little… too simple. It is 'just' a l'hopital problem. The problem might be a challenge to the previous me from before, but the me now had used one Erotica System Point to learn the whole introduction to calculus textbook.
I took the red marker from Rachel's silky hand and neatly wrote down all the steps I used to get to the answer before turning around with pride back to my seat. Of course, I didn't miss looking at Rachel's bulging breasts along the way. The Erotica System Point allowed me to understand the calculus textbook… it didn't cure me of my extreme lust towards sexy girls.
Rachel stared at the board in shock. Was this the student who scored low on tests the whole year? Did he finally turn a new leaf?
"He probably saw it in the textbook…"
"Obviously, didn't you see him looking through it?"
"Such a fake."
I could hear my classmates whisper among themselves, but I did not care. I knew that I'm not a fake and that's all that matters.
"Pss. How did you solve that? Did you suddenly become… smart!?" When I got back to my seat, Logan had already scooted her chair back next to mine. She even took my textbook to see if I was looking at the problem prior to going up.
"I was naturally smart, table cloth. I just don't like to show off. Oh wait, maybe I was playing the pig to eat the dragon." I joked. I couldn't tell her that I have an Erotica System that allowed me to become godly after using my cousin to masturbate, could I?
"It's 'Pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger'! Dummy!" Logan rolled her eyes.
"Who cares, it's still the same. Uhh didn't you say that you're not talking to me anymore?" I recalled that she was pretending to be angry not too long ago.
"Hmph." Logan evaded my eyes and returned my textbook.
