Chapter 3: The Protagonist with X-Ray Vision
As soon as he spoke those words, his forehead was met with a whack.
Boss, why did you hit me? He was confused.
I asked you to apologize to Xu Muyan. From now on, you must not call her Sister-in-law. Wang Haoran said.
Eh?
What Eh? Hurry up and apologize.
"Um" Fan Jian bowed to Xu Muyan sincerely.
Excuse me, Classmate Xu Muyan. It was my mistake. Ill never call you using the wrong title again.
Wang Haoran turned to see Xu Mayans startled face.
Them mocking and calling you sister-in-law has nothing to do with me. I will not permit them to call you that in the future. Whoever calls you that, Ill break their mouth.
As for the rumors saying that I like you and am pursuing you. I need to clear them up. They are false. As a high schooler in his third year, I have to prioritize academics. I really dont have any plans on dating for the time being. There isnt much to think about.
Well, that\'s it."
After explaining, Wang Haoran began to walk towards the classroom, leaving behind the confused Xu Muyan.
[Ding! Altered Xu Muyan, one of the heroines, impression of the Host. Favorability has increased by 20. The current total favorability is 10 (Ordinary Acquaintances).]
[Ding! The Host changed the original plots direction. Received 200 Villain Points.]
Wang Haoran heard the systems message just as he made his way to the door of his classroom.
He wasnt surprised.
The reason Xu Muyan was somewhat disgusted by him before was mainly due to the sex scandals and his brothers mocking her, calling her sister-in-law, or something similar.
Imagine how sensitive a little girl whod never been in a relationship would be.
Indeed, she, who wholeheartedly wanted to focus on her studies, would find it quite troubling.
Wang Haoran himself hasn\'t done anything unreasonable to Xu Muyan yet.
He even explained the matter clearly and warned the brother not to speak her name so casually.
Because of that, Xu Muyan naturally wouldnt be disgusted by Wang Haoran.
Having favorability over 10 points is considered Ordinary Acquaintances by the system, which is the same favorability as other classmates.
In that regard, Xu Muyans favorability for Wang Haoran was now tied with the Protagonist.
Not only did he raise his favorability, but he also received Villain Points.
Wang Haoran examined his current attributes.
[Host: Wang Haoran]
[Strength: 89]
[Charm: 198]
[Villain Halo: 99]
[Villain Points: 300]
[Skills: None]
Thankfully, I have 300 Villain Points. With 200 more points, the system might enable the Shop. If there are items that can instantly increase my Strength value, it would be perfect. Wang Haoran looked forward to it deep down.
Because the Protagonist single-handedly crushed three people to such an extent, his Strength value must significantly exceed 100.
Another issue was that the more the plot progressed, the greater the Protagonists Strength value would be.
If Wang Haoran, whose current combat power didnt even exceed 100, picked a fight, he wouldn\'t stand a chance.
While Wang Haoran was pondering this situation, he suddenly felt a pair of eyes in the classroom sizing him up.
There was hatred borne in the depths of those eyes.
The owner of this gaze was the Protagonist, named Chu Bai. The student who always ranked at the bottom of the class.
The name itself would make him stand out from the crowd. This was because his name was likely to belong to the Protagonist of a novel.
Why?
Protagonists surnames in web novels were usually: Ye, Lin, Xiao, and Chu.
His was the fourth most popular surname!
As for Chu Bai hostilely sizing him up, Wang Haoran could guess the reason.
Yesterday, Fan Jian, Fan Tong, and Qin Shousheng blocked Chu Bai\'s way from school.
Chu Bai certainly thought that Wang Haoran had planned it.
But, in fact, those three guys had done it without any orders.
However, Wang Haoran wouldnt try to explain it to Chu Bai.
It wasnt necessary.
He was a Villain, born to be at odds with the Protagonist.
System, analyze all of Chu Bais attributes. Wang Haoran instructed.
[Analyzing costs 100 Villain Points, do you want to proceed?]
"Yes!"
Although Wang Haoran understood the original plot slightly via the system, that information was quite vague and brief.
How tragic his end as a villain would be, how tragic his familys end would be, and how blessed the Protagonist would be.
After using the Villain Points, Chu Bais attribute panel appeared.
[Protagonist: Chu Bai]
[Strength: 155]
[Charm: 100]
[Protagonist Halo: 357]
[Skill: X-Ray Vision]
Oh, it turns out that the Protagonist possesses an X-Ray Vision ability.
Wang Haoran was initially distressed about spending the 100 Villain Points; however, he immediately felt it was worth it after obtaining this crucial information.
As the saying goes, he who knows the enemy well will come unscathed through a hundred battles. Similarly, after learning Chu Bais overpowered skill, it would no longer be difficult to handle him.
His charm value was just 100. The average value, no different from a strangers.
In the original plot, this guy ended up with numerous beautiful girls.
That made no sense!
Even with his extreme charm value of 198, he couldnt get a hold of even a single girl.
That was so unfair!
His Strength value of 155, on the other hand, was outstandingover 50% more than the average value.
In the original plot, relying on his outstanding Strength value, Chu Bai rescued many damsels in distress, thereby conquering the hearts of many beautiful heroines.
Wang Haoran wanted to complain about this.
How could so many rogues exist in today\'s peaceful society, and how could they run into Chu Bai in every case?
Moreover, he succeeded in rescuing the beautiful heroines every time.
Because of that, those heroines became fond of Chu Bai.
That was just too much.
In this economic society, being handsome and wealthy was the Way of the King.
How could a stranger skilled at fighting be so attractive to heroines?
And he, as a rich second-generation man with an off-the-charts charm value, was looked at with disgust by the heroines.
Why?!
System, if I spend money hiring people to kill Chu Bai directly, what are my odds of success? Wang Haoran was a little heartbroken and planned to be more direct.
[As the Protagonist Halos Points are higher compared to the Hosts Villain Halos Points, the chance of success is close to zero.]
Damn, I knew it.
Wang Haoran complained to himself. Unwilling to concede, he asked, Close to zero means that there is still a chance. In that case, I must give it a try, right?
[It is not recommended for the Host to execute this kind of operation. The Protagonist has his Halo to protect himself. If he falls into a crisis, it is bound to trigger his destiny. The Protagonist will not only resolve the crisis, but he will also become much more formidable, which would be highly detrimental to the Host.]
What?! How can the Protagonists Halo be so unfair?! Wang Haoran was quite dejected upon hearing this.
[Host need not be dejected. You may prevent the Protagonists destiny by seizing the heroines body and soul, which would weaken the Protagonists Halo, thereby increasing the Villain Halos Points before performing such operations.]
It seems that I have no choice but to take it one step at a time, using every opportunity to snatch the heroine, shattering the Protagonists Halo. Only then would I not reach a dead end. Wang Haoran strengthened his mind.
