Chapter 205: New Power
She was the sixth woman I dominate just today.
"Take these," I handed her two pills – one for pain relief and the other as a contraceptive.
Some of these women had no direct involvement in my past suffering; their only connection was through their boyfriends, who had been my ex-bullies. I planned to reprogram their memories and let them go after I had my revenge.
'I already earned 6 domination points and skill points,' I muttered to myself as I checked my stats. I made sure to be thorough with them because I was aiming for a triple play, essentially earning XP, domination, and skill points all at once.
If I had just fuck them in a regular way, I would only have earned domination points and some EXP. However, by causing them pain, I could earn more. It seems that the system consider hardcore sex as torture .
I didn't necessarily need to treat some of them roughly, only those who had directly sinned against me. But I needed to maximize efficiency and reward. It's not every day that I come across women I can exploit without fearing any consequences.
In regard to Cheung Ae and her friends? Well, I had a more elaborate plan for them. I didn't want to just fuck them and move on. No, I wanted to make them really suffer. I want them to feel hell.
But for now, I decided to focus on my stats after my emotions finally calmed down.
'I have enough points to buy that thing.' I opened my Skill Store and finally bought the most expensive skill available " Dream Manipulation."
[Dream Manipulation Level 1]
The moment I purchased the skill, I was able to figure out how to use it with ease. It would have taken me a long time to comprehend it before, but with all my passives, I was able to learn pretty easily .
"I need to test this," after getting the general idea, I closed my eyes and went to sleep.
Normally, it would be hard for me to fall asleep because my mind was always active, but when I activated Dream Manipulation, it allowed me to sleep whenever I wanted.
The moment I closed my eyes, everything went black for a second, and then the next moment, I found myself in an empty, black-and-white space. It was completely devoid of anything, but then I realized where I was. It was the same place I visited when my system updated.
"So this place was my dream world," I mused to myself as I scanned the area.
"Let's try it." I closed my eyes again and imagined a scene from my memory.
With my intelligence reaching 20, I could now remember things in extreme detail. The human mind actually registers everything it sees, even in our peripheral vision, but because humans have limited brain capacity, they usually don't remember these small details.
After reaching an Intelligence of 20, my memory had become significantly stronger. Now I could remember things in a 3D manner.
In an instant, the world around me shifted, and I found myself inside my room, the place I had the most vivid memories of.
"Amazing!" I exclaimed after seeing how realistic this place was. It felt like I was in reality. It was an exact replica of my bedroom from my memory, except for the tinted windows that prevented me from seeing outside.
"Oh, this is bad. This power could actually make me lose track of reality," I thought to myself. It was risky to make my dreams so realistic that they blurred the lines between reality and dream. I had learned about this from a movie where they could control dreams.
With that in mind, I started to change my appearance to become someone who would only exist in a dream. I walked over to the mirror and saw my bald, average face reflected in it. I decided to transform my appearance. Now, I was wearing a yellow suit with a white cape.
Just looking at my weird costume was enough to remind me that I was not in reality.
"Alright, now it's time to explore this power," I chuckled to myself as I walked towards the door and opened it.
CLICK!
The door creaked open, and I didn't see anything unusual. In fact, the corridor felt more realistic because now I couldn't see any tinted windows that might indicate I was inside a dream.
"Let's see what I can do with this," I contemplated for a moment. Then I started imagining things. I pictured the corridor turning more sci-fi.
As if responding to my imagination, the plain walls transformed into metallic surfaces, and the floor took on a sleek black metallic sheen. The lights in the ceiling transformed into a single, long neon white light that stretched across the corridor.
"I'm like a god here!" I exclaimed, marveling at the power I had over my dreams.
But Before I could fully immerse myself in the dream world's possibilities, a throbbing headache struck. Suddenly, my vision dimmed, and I felt my energy drain away.
I opened my eyes, realizing that I had overexerted my Mind Power. It became apparent that the more complex my imagination, the bigger the energy consumption for Dream Manipulation. My excitement was met with the sobering reality of limitations as I laid on the bed.
'This power is worthy of those 6 Domination points,' I muttered with a satisfied smile as I contemplated its potential. What I had done was merely entering my own dream space, but this ability could also be used on others.
It meant that in the future, I could create my own version of reality within someone else's dreams.
With my other skills like Mind Link and parallel processing, it might be possible to create a combination of skills to immerse a group of people in a shared illusion. The possibilities were vast, and I was just beginning to scratch the surface.
'I have to upgrade this skill fast'
