Ultimately, Tanaka Masao still chose the Cooking skill, which could capture a woman's heart.
As ten Skill Experience Cards were consumed, a vast amount of knowledge poured into Tanaka Masao's mind.
This feeling was even more impactful than the shock of upgrading three skills at once just now.
After an unknown amount of time, Tanaka Masao finally digested the knowledge given by the system.
At this moment, Tanaka Masao realized that the difference between LV3 and LV4 was not just a numerical one; it was a qualitative leap.
When his Cooking skill was LV3, he could cook delicious food according to menu steps, but at LV4, he could create menus based on his own experience.
[Cooking LV4 (Skill Experience Card x100 required for upgrade)]
Tanaka Masao looked at the system panel, seeing that the number of Experience Cards required to upgrade from LV4 to LV5 had increased tenfold, and he couldn't help but gasp.
If the improvement at LV4 was already so significant, how strong would LV5 be?
Could it be possible to create the legendary glowing dishes?
However, judging by his attributes, it was more likely he would create drugged dishes.
After some operations, Tanaka Masao's personal panel was as follows:
[Name: Tanaka Masao Gender: Male Age: 18 Strength: 8 Agility: 5 Constitution: 10 Spirit: 8 Luck: 7 Charm: 3.5 Talent: [Life Unending, Energy Limitless] (As long as you are alive, you will have infinite energy) [Hardening] LV2 (Can actively harden any part of one's body to a large extent; the degree of Hardening is affected by talent level and user's Constitution.) Skills: Cooking LV4 (0/100), Painting LV3 (1/10), Music LV3 (0/10), Writing LV3 (0/10), Cat's Cradle LV2 (0/3), Yo-yo LV2 (0/3) Items: [Skill Experience Card] x1, [Talent Experience Card] x7]
Among them, one point in the Agility attribute was raised through his own efforts, in addition to the points given by the system.
Although his own efforts couldn't compare to the system, they were useful, especially the 0.5 increase in his appearance.
As for why Cat's Cradle and Yo-yo became LV2...
Ahem, wasn't it because there were spare Skill Experience Cards, and upgrading only required one Skill Card? So he naturally used them.
It's always good to have more skills; he'll go buy a Yo-yo to play with tomorrow.
Looking at the remaining Fall Value (degenerate points), Tanaka Masao exchanged for some [Random Items] again.
Among them were five popular books that could cultivate one's temperament and enrich everyone's spiritual world.
Tanaka Masao flipped through them for a while and nodded.
"Hmm, the quality this time is also good, but this one, 'I Shouldn't Have Hidden My Participation in the Comic Con from XX,' actually features a blond.
This makes me very unhappy; the male protagonist in 'Seika Academy' is more to my liking. Fat otaku are my destined characters.
And these two bespectacled goddesses, the black stockings are really nice."
After some critical appreciation, Tanaka Masao closed the books and looked at his other rewards.
Two novels, one was the famous your name, and the other was the healing anime anohana: the flower we saw that day, abbreviated as anohana: the flower we saw that day.
"Hmm? Besides books and novels, there are other things?"
Tanaka Masao bought ten random items in total, and besides the usual two, he actually got new things.
[Black Pantyhose: A pair of black pantyhose, excellent quality, comfortable to wear, warm in winter and cool in summer, with an excellent feel.]
[Black-rimmed Glasses: A seemingly ordinary pair of black-rimmed glasses, which are indeed ordinary. They can adjust the prescription according to the wearer's eye condition.]
[Black Camera: A black camera, well-made and not easily damaged. With it, you can record your life as you wish.]
Tanaka Masao looked at the three black items given by the system and took them into his hands.
He only glanced at the black pantyhose before withdrawing his gaze.
[Hmph, the packaging hasn't even been opened, it's not interesting at all.
I'll just give it to someone as a random gift later; I can't possibly wear it myself.]
He then picked up the black-rimmed glasses, looked at them for a moment, and put them on.
"This one is quite nice; it's very comfortable to wear, like not wearing anything at all."
In fact, ever since Tanaka Masao added to his Constitution, the original myopia of this body had already been cured, so the glasses' function of adjusting the prescription was useless to him.
He usually wore glasses only because he preferred this image of himself.
He picked up the last item, the camera, and didn't feel anything special about it.
It just felt like it was made with solid materials. He took a random picture and found the clarity to be exceptionally good.
Out of curiosity, he took a picture of the moon in the sky outside the window.
Enlarged by who knows how many times, he could already see the soil on the moon's surface, and there was no blur at all.
"This is a bit too clear."
Tanaka Masao's first reaction was, how many gigabytes of memory would this single photo take up?
"It seems this camera is also no ordinary item; it truly lives up to being a system product."
Such a powerful camera was perfect for them, the fat otaku who love taking pictures. No matter how far the distance, they could record beautiful scenery.
Those cute girls would surely want to be recorded with such a powerful camera, wouldn't they?
So, even without their consent, taking pictures should be fine, right?
Moreover, this camera was given by the system, which meant it could be stored in the system's inventory at any time.
No need to worry about it being discovered by others... ahem, no, it should be no need to worry about it being stolen by others.
A flash of inspiration struck Tanaka Masao, and he looked towards a direction outside the window.
He aimed at it, pressed the shutter, and then kept zooming in.
"Wow, I can really capture it."
He tried it out of curiosity, and unexpectedly, it actually worked.
He had just taken a picture in the direction of Yukinoshita Yukino's house. Their homes were not far apart, only a few kilometers in a straight line.
Furthermore, Yukinoshita Yukino's house was on a higher floor, very conspicuous, and usually visible.
It was just that with the camera's enhancement, he could see clearly.
"She has pulled the curtains properly. It seems Yukino knows how to protect her privacy."
Tanaka Masao praised her sincerely, with no hint of regret in his tone.
Having obtained such a fun toy, Tanaka Masao naturally wanted to take pictures everywhere.
Soon, he discovered that even a camera given by the system had its limits.
It couldn't see through things...
Ah, no, it should be said that it couldn't penetrate the pollution in the air. As the distance increased, this effect would become greater and greater, then become blurry and indistinct.
