A few seconds later, a small rolled-up off-white scroll appeared in his lap.
[Sonya Blade Leg Grab(Skill Scroll, Consumable, Uncommon) x1 – Can use once on a chosen target to automatically perform the move]
A fighting skill? The move sounded familiar to Ben, but he couldnt recall from where. It was also the first skill scroll consumable hed seen. Still, this wouldnt help him now so he put it in his pocket and bought another mystery box before his clove went out.
Receiving another box in his hands, Ben didnt hesitate and took his chances again
Soon after, he was holding a modern elegant black leather belt with a steel buckle. He traced his fingers along it, feeling its luxurious texture.
[High Class Leather Belt(Item, Uncommon) x1 – Increases wearers social status by 1 up to a maximum of 6]
It wasnt bad, but he doubted it would change his situation much now, since his social status would be too low even with that. Still, even a mosquito was meatif you ignored the human blood in its stomach and risk of catching disease
Ben wore the belt and checked his current stats. This might be the last occasion when he looked at them, so he turned on a system option to show a comparison of what he started with a month ago to what he had now.

Although he was lacking in many places, overall, Ben realized hed made significant progress over this last month. He changed from a complete waste to someone with a rosy futureOr that wouldve been the case, if his future didnt have a deadline tomorrow
Shaking off his doubt and anxiety, Ben took a deep breath and centered himself. He still had an opportunity tonight, and tomorrow as well. The past few days, hed been texting the girls he dated and also the new numbers he got, but the results werent too pleasing…
All the new girls whose phone numbers he obtained wouldnt date him by tomorrow. Ben suspected the time limit was making him anxious and it was coming through in his conversations, making the leads hesitant to meet him. Even following the three minute rule, it didnt protect him from using language and tone that broke the girls thirstometers…but he knew there wasnt much he could do about it; A man walking the plank would find it tough to have a wank…
As for the girls he dated, Annabelle wasnt available and Katie would still be on her period. As for Lia, she didnt respond at all since their hookup. Ben wasnt sure what was going on with her. The only exception was Miyuki.
She agreed to hang out with Ben tomorrow, and even better, they planned to watch a movie in Bens dorm room, which would be an amazing chance for him. The only problem was that with the timing of Miyukis job, she could only make it later at night. It would be cutting it close to the end of Bens remaining time.
That meant if it didnt work out, she might have to watch the system force him to commit seppuku with a butter knife…
Or kamikaze into moped-kun for self-propelled isekai…
