Joe awoke to the sound of slapping. He felt a vague sting on his cheeks, as he opened his sore eyes.
"Are you gonna wake up Joe? It's already Wednesday."
"What time is it, Virgin?"
The person slapping his face was his roommate, Chad, affectionately known as Virgin.
"It's 5:00 P.M." Chad said in a solemn tone.
Joe took some time to calculate the time, and he concluded he was out for an entire day. He was fine with missing a school day, but he was confused as to why nothing changed.
'Hey system, what changed?', Joe asked internally.

Joe took a quick glance, but returned to speaking with his roommate Chad. He looked like a chad, that's for sure. Although looks could be deceiving, as he was a virgin, hence the nickname.
"Hey, tomorrow's April, so I'll treat you to a meal", Chad offered.
Joe accepted the deal with a perfunctory answer, as he wished to look at the system more. He quickly chased off Chad, and returned to his room.
He looked back at his interface, and specifically analyzed the Cultivation Technique section.
'What's this System?', asked Joe.
[The System has taken the liberty of analyzing the world's database, and has found traces of cultivation. There will naturally be a cultivation technique slot, as the host is suitable to cultivate]
'What's with my Spiritual Root? Why is it N/A? And what am I getting compensated for?' Joe continued asking questions.
[The Host's Spiritual Root is unique. It's attribute cannot be determined by the system. Host is being compensated for time lost in gathering information. According to the Host's thoughts, Host should not have anymore questions]
The system was right, as Joe had no more questions to ask. Since the system's goal was gathering information, he decided to go gather some information.
[The best way for the Host to gather information for the system is to bond with friends, and gain more experience in the field of interpersonal relationships]
Upon hearing these words from the system, Joe realized he had little to no friends. All he had was Chad, his roommate to talk with, as all of his other friends were busy. After thinking it over, he decided to wait for the next day for his meeting with Chad rather than talk to a stranger on the streets.
…
The day passed quickly with Joe doing just about nothing for the whole day. It wasn't that he wished to do nothing, just that he was overexcited about the fact there was cultivation in the world.
Joe and Chad decided to meet up at a cafe right around the street. They sat down, and Chad passed him a thick and worn book. Joe didn't touch it just yet, as he felt it was somewhat dirty.
"April fools! Look at the title of the book!" Chad stared at him and said.
Joe picked up the book and took a quick glance down at it. On it's cover, it said, "Vol. 1 of the Virginity Scriptures".
"I got it at a run-down bookstore! It seemed pretty funny, so I bought it to give to you!" Chad said jovially.
Joe remained silent for a few seconds, before replying with a strange face.
He posed like the father of a certain boy who wouldn't get in the robot, and solemnly asked, "Where did you get this book exactly?"
"Right around the street block near the 7-11. Why?" Chad asked.
"I would like another one of these, preferably the second volume." Joe replied seriously.
"Whatever man, just buy the next one yourself." Chad replied with a strange expression.
Joe solemnly nodded as he walked out of the cafe.
"Wait, if you're just gonna leave, then why did we come here?" Chad shouted after him.
Joe only said one thing in response. "I will become a stronger virgin for the greater good, Chad." He walked away with a solemn look on his face as though he was making a great sacrifice for the greater good.
