[2/3 of Day 1 Mass release!]


    Hugo and Collins walked down the quiet dorm hallway, the silence between them thick and heavy. Hugo, desperate to ease the tension, cleared his throat and gave a small, nervousugh. "So… uh… that was a crazy night, huh?"


    Collins didn’t respond, didn’t even look his way. His jaw was clenched, eyes fixed forward as he picked up his pace, practically leaving Hugo in the dust.

    Hugo hurried to keep up. ""I mean… at least now we know the bouncers are thorough, right?" he joked, trying to lighten the mood.


    Still, nothing. Collins’s silence was louder than any shouting could have been. With a defeated sigh, Hugo let him go on ahead and trudged back to his room alone.


    He knew he might have pissed off Collins today by quite a bit. Afterall, he had ruined his buddy’s own chance of getting bagged tonight simply because he was being stupid.


    It was just that, there was really no choice for him at that moment. He need these credits!


    Once inside, he slumped against the door, staring at his feet. But then… he remembered. ’The System!’ He quickly pulled it up, and his eyes went wide as he saw the rewards tally:


    [- Touch Ass 10 times = 50 UHS credits and points.]


    [- Touch Boobs 3 times = 30 UHS credits and points.]


    [- Touch Bare Ass 2 times = 100 UHS credits and points.]


    [- Touch Bare Boobs 0 times = 0 UHS credits and points.]


    [- Danced with a girl for 120 seconds = 120 UHS credits and points.]


    His jaw dropped. He stared at the total, his eyes gleaming.


    [Total: 300 UHS points and credits.]


    "Three hundred points?!" Hugo whispered, barely able to contain his excitement. He did a quick mental calction, envisioning all the items he could buy.


    "I’m loaded! I could get a bunch of gift boxes… maybe even a new aura!" He chuckled to himself, picturing all the perks he could unlock.


    Despite the night’s embarrassment, the payoff was too sweet. Maybe getting tossed out was worth it. He was practically rolling in rewards!


    With renewed excitement, he opened up the System shop, his eyes darting through the list of auras.


    The first thing he wanted to get was a new aura. This was already long overdue. A


    Auras were so magical and useful that they had literally saved his ass with women multiple times. Having just two was far too little.


    After a bit of scrolling, he zeroed in on three intriguing options:


    They were; Aura of Lust, Aura of Persuasion and Aura of Trust.


    Hugo began to consider the best one to buy among the three. At a nce, the best option to help him with his current predicament war the Aura of Lust.


    It’s name was self exnatory. It would make the girls around him more horny. Although this was good, it slipped one vital part.


    It didn’t actually force them to want to do anything with him.


    It could make them horny, but if they seemed him unworthy, they would simply go to another man! That was counterproductive!


    But the Aura of Persuasion on the other hand was like the solution to that problem. This one caught his attention. It could make people more agreeable.


    Not only was this good for convincing girls to let down their guard with him, it could even also be used in getting out of other sticky situations!


    It was like a 2 in 1.


    The Aura of Trust on the other hand was just too mild. It helped build trust with targets over time. Hugo needed something stronger to get him out of his trouble.


    He weighed the options carefully before finally settling on Aura of Persuasion. "Perfect. Not too over the top but just enough to sway people if I need it. Plus, if I ever need to talk my way out of a jam, this’lle in handy."


    [Ding! Host has purchased Aura Of Persuasion!]


    With a grin, he spent 250 credits, watching his points drop. He was left with 50, but it felt like a good tradeoff.


    With his purchaseplete, he couldn’t resist the urge to test it out right away. And he knew exactly who to try it on.


    Stepping out of his room, he spotted Collins sitting in their living area, staring nkly at the floor with his arms crossed.


    He was still clearly pissed. Hugo wouldn’t have wanted to talk to him in this mood on any other asion.


    But now he had a trump card!


    He took a deep breath, activating his new aura. He walked over, putting on his most sincere, regretful expression.


    He only had one minute!


    "Hey, Collins," he started softly. "Look, I… I just wanted to say I’m sorry about tonight. I know I got a little… out of hand."


    Collins looked at him, his expression still stony but his eyes softening slightly. Hugo could feel the aura working, nudging Collins’s attitude just a bit.


    "I mean it, man," Hugo continued, pouring on the honesty. "You’re my friend, and I hate that I messed things up tonight. Friends forgive each other, right?"


    Collins’s expression wavered. His jaw unclenched, and he let out a long sigh. "Yeah… I guess you’re right, Hugo. Friends do forgive each other."


    Hugo’s heart skipped. ’This aura is amazing!’ He felt a rush of excitement but kept his face calm. "Thanks, man. I’ll make it up to you, I swear."


    Collins nodded, a reluctant smile tugging at his lips. "Just… don’t make me regret it, okay?"


    "Promise," Hugo replied, managing to keep his grin from breaking out. Inside, he was doing mental cartwheels.


    Hugo had to bite back a triumphant grin. ’This aura is too overpowered,’ he thought, barely containing his excitement.


    Not only had he managed to turn things around with Collins, but he’d done it without lifting a finger!


    Or losing a finger!


    As he headed back to his room, he couldn’t contain his satisfaction. This new aura was going to be his ultimate tool. With a smirk, he thought, ’There’s no stopping me now.’
