[Host, You have yet to open your gift pack! Do you wish to open it?]

[Yes] / [No]

Mike stared at the screen, dumbfounded, as he read the text.

SMACK

He then smacked his head with his hand, "Of course!" he exclaimed out loud, "How could I forget!?"

The system gift pack is almost a standard in all system novels, and as a man who read them religiously, Mike felt ashamed.

AHEM

Clearing his throat, he turned to the system screen and said, "System, open the gift pack."

[Ding! Affirmative Host!]

[Opening gift pack!]

.

.

[You have obtained: Skill: Eyes of Eros, Skill: Aphrodite's Touch, Skill: Zeus's libido!]

Mike's eyes flickered as he read the text. He had a basic understanding of what the skills were, but, "System, tell me more about these skills."

'I want to make sure that I know what I have before I go out,' he mumbled inwardly as he looked at the screen.

[Ding! Certainly, host!]

[Skill: Eyes of Eros: The skill lets the host view information about a woman and her emotions towards the host!]

[Skill: Aphrodite's Touch: The skill makes any woman the host touches horny! The more the host touches, the hornier the woman gets. After a certain time, the woman will crave the host's touch and cannot live without it!]

[Skill: Zeus's libido: The skill allows the host to have 100% impregnation rates. The host can also have multiple orgasms and can also control the potency of his seven!]

Mike's eyes widened as he read the text, his heart stole with excitement as he clenched his fists.

He knew these were all powerful skills that would immensely help him in his upcoming adventures.

"System, is there anything else I should know?" he asked as he gazed at the blue screen.

[Ding! Host, you can see your status page!]

[Do you wish to open it?]

[Yes] / [No]

"Yes," Mike immediately replied and watched as the text changed.

STATUS

Name: Mike Woods

Age: 20

Money: 350

Skills: Eyes of Eros, Aphrodite's touch, Zeus's Libido.

Harem: None

Mike read the text; it wasn't much, and the status was rudimentary, but it did make it simple.

He then nodded his head, reeling in the information, "Is there anything else?" He asked.

[None, Host!]

With that, Mike got out of his bed and rubbed his hands excitedly. "Alright, time to get started!"

He walked out to his closet, which was just a few feet away, and looked for a new set of clothes that would look good on him.

But Mike frowned as he searched through the clothes and realised, 'These won't fit me!'

Mike's clothes were all fit for his old self, and although he bought his clothes a little larger than his own size, they still wouldn't fit his new size!

His face twisted in annoyance as he grumbled, "Ugh, I have to buy clothes on the way."

He then took out the largest shirt and pants he had and put them on, but squinted his eyes when they were still tight and difficult to move.

Shaking his annoyance aside, Mike grabbed his phone and walked towards the door while searching for a taxi on his phone.

CLICK

He opened the door and walked out, entering the open hallway.

There were rows of doors on either side of him, with garbage bins dotting the hallway.

Mike lived on the outskirts of a city in a motel as he couldn't afford to live a little closer.

As he walked along the hallway, Mike glanced at his phone, wincing as he stared at the price tag for the taxi ride.

"Ugh, taking a taxi would cost me a lot, but the earliest bus is three hours later!" Nonetheless, he booked the ride as he neared the stairs.

As he got down the stairs and entered the driveway, Mike couldn't help but notice how empty it was.

"I mean, most of the guys living here are shut-ins; they either are addicted to drugs or are wanted by the police. So they don't come out much."

Mike then shook his head and took his phone out of his pocket. The ride was still ten minutes away, so he waited patiently until the ride arrived.

Mike then got in, and the taxi drove off. It took them an hour before he got to the mall, and Mike selected a mall that was the nearest to Sarah's company's office and was at a walkable distance from the mall.

Mike paid the driver and got out of the car. The mall was big and buzzing with people, and as he walked in, he couldn't help but hear the whispers of the people around him.

A small blush crept on his cheeks as he listened to them while his heartbeat quickened.

It was the first time in a long time since somebody had noticed him. Heck, he couldn't remember the last time he had a casual conversation with someone, excluding his mother.

He soon picked up his pace as he spotted a clothing store that would have some less expensive clothes.

And amidst the occasional stares of the lady workers, he quickly chose a white shirt and black pants and bought them.

He then changed into his new clothes in the changing room before he headed out.

'The office closes at four,' he mumbled inwardly as he checked the time; it was still 3 o'clock, and he still had an hour left.

Soon, he exited the mall and walked towards the office, which was about a ten-minute walk away from the mall.

Mike's heartbeat quickened as he walked towards the office while he clenched his fists. Everything still felt like a dream to him.

'Just a few hours ago, I was a nobody,' Mike mumbled inwardly. He was ignored by the rest of the world, with only a single person, his mother, still caring for him.

"But no more!" he muttered out loud as he stood in front of a huge building with large posters of actors and actresses plastered to it.

"I will use the gift to full advantage and carve a place for myself!"

Mike soon walked into the building and looked around; it had high ceilings with white marble floors. A fresh aroma filled the air, with a few people walking about.

He then walked towards the reception desk in front of him, with two women working.

A forced, strained smile bloomed on his lips as he reached the desk. "Um, hi," he greeted the two ladies sitting behind the desk.

One of the ladies, who was wearing a business suit and had round glasses, turned to look up at him, only for her eyes to widen in surprise.

Her cheeks reddened a little as she looked at Mike, "H-Hi, what can I do for you?" she asked as she tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear.

The lady beside her frowned at the bashful voice of her partner and looked up.

'Whoaaa…..' she exclaimed inwardly as her eyes went wide, 'He's so handsome!' She exclaimed inwardly as her gaze travelled around his body.

Mike was wearing a white shirt that was neatly tucked into his black pants. His fair skin glowed with youthfulness, and his shy, awkward smile only added to his charm.

"I-I heard that the actress Sarah is hiring a new assistant," Mike said as he looked at the two ladies. "I am a big fan of hers, so I was wondering if I could get that job."

Both the ladies' faces beamed when they heard his words. The lady with the glasses clenched her fist as she thought, 'If he gets the job, maybe I can….'

The other lady too had the same thoughts as her companion. They both fell into a daze for a moment before the other lady answered, "Sure, but we also had some other applicants as well. So, the company decided to do an interview."

She then stood up from her seat, walked over, and said, "Follow me; I will take you to the interview room."

Mike's eyes flickered at her words as he fell into thought. Watching this, the lady with the glasses said, "Don't worry, I'm sure you'll get the job!"

Mike tilted his head at her words while the other woman smiled as she added, "Yeah, we will put in a good word for you."

Mike's smile widened at her words, "Thank you!" he said to both of them and followed the lady.

They soon reached another hall that had a few people sitting in a row of chairs. Most of them were men, of a similar age to him, with a few women too.

"Sit here," the receptionist lady whispered to him, "I'll go talk to the interviewers!"

Mike nodded his head, grateful to the receptionist ladies as he sat in one of the chairs while the lady walked into the room in front.

He could feel the others glancing at him, but he ignored them and fiddled with his fingers and waited for the lady.

A few minutes had passed, and the receptionist walked out.

She looked at Mike with a smile on her face and signalled him to come forward.

BADUMP BADUMP

Mike's heart thumped against his chest as he understood what had happened. He knew this wouldn't have happened if he had had his previous looks.

He clenched his jaw as he curled his fists in determination, "Alright, here I come…."
