Chapter 17

Class: Pornstar

Ability: First-Person Camera

First-Person Camera: The class's holder can record what they see as if their eyes were extremely high-quality cameras. The filmed content can only be uploaded to the system's media platform.

Kaiden felt like fainting all of a sudden.

Just a single ability, and even that was shit.

The last line meant that he couldn't even upload the footage to the internet, it could only be utilized by the media platform awakened used to stream and upload edited videos of their clears, achievements, announcements, etc.

Other awakened could also shoot porn should they wish to, using the mana-fueled cameras they had access to, but not many chose to do so.

Why?

Firstly, awakened were something like higher existences, many felt like showing off their naked forms was below them. The people who ended up choosing to film porn tended to be ridiculed by the other awakened.

Second, the cameras were not made for recording intimate acts but for brutal battles with explosions and the like. Thus, it was significantly more durable than cameras made by human hands, but what a professional filming crew could do during a traditional porn shoot would end up being a superior viewing experience.

Before Kaiden could despair any further, an exclamation mark appeared in his mind. "Wait! This is certified trash, yes, but combined with my Pornstar System, my Pornstar class might end up being OP! Due to my being an awakened, I could create my own 'studio' starring exclusively my Valkyries and myself, where we would film ourselves to a much wider audience. After all, everyone has access to the systematic media platform, and there isn't even a language barrier. That way, I could earn much more fangirls, views, and income. Well, if we do manage to get loyal viewers, that is."

With this revelation, or perhaps an extreme coping mechanism, Kaiden managed not to fall into a crippling depression. He glanced at his status, and something else stuck out to him.

Views: 0

Fangirls: 1

Income: 0

"What? I have a fangirl? How? I haven't even starred in a video yet, and I have like zero online presence! Did a girl begin to get moist in her coochie when I posted my Gold 3 promotion screenshot to Twitt*r? Do I have a stalker I'm not aware of, or what? Maybe this shit is just buggy... Eh." In the end, he could only move on with his life.

As soon as he was finished checking his notifications, he was about to close the interface, but then...

The day has come; today, Kaiden will visit the location the casting agent indicated.

He dressed in his recently acquired suit and visited the barber once again. Right now, he was sitting in a taxi. The place was about 20 minutes away by car.

Once there, he quickly found the exact location thanks to Go*gle Maps, and when he stepped inside, a small reception area welcomed Kaiden.

He walked up to the older woman sitting behind the reception desk. "Hi, I'm here for the casting."

She raised her vision from her computer screen to examine him. "Welcome. Identification papers, please."

He handed his ID over, and she checked something in their database. "Found you. Take this list, read it over, and give it back to me once completed."

Kaiden accepted the paper and the pen she gave him and then began studying it.

It was a comprehensive paper that asked a lot of questions. His basic information, sexual preferences, safety declarations, consent to be filmed, payment information, and more.

He began filling the forms out. For the stage name, he chose 'Maverick'. It sounded cool. As for the STD test, he'd already done it beforehand. Though with his passive skill, it wasn't relevant.

As for scene preferences, he strictly chose straight scenes with either a single girl or multiple, though he made sure to indicate that he would only do it if he was the sole male present. For everything else, he declined.

The receptionist gave it a read-over, then nodded, folding the paper and stashing it away. "Go ahead," she said while gesturing towards a double door.

Once he did as instructed, he froze in place from shock. Kaiden was unable to accept that what he was seeing was indeed reality.

"K-K-Kaiden?!" A feminine voice yelped with sheer shock evident in her tone.

"Aria..." Kaiden greeted the girl in a disbelieving whisper once his dazed state of mind subsided enough for his brain to reboot itself.

The girl couldn't meet his eyes and only replied a meek, "Please kill me..."

"You know this dude?" a guy spoke up haughtily.

Multiple people were seated in sofas close to each other. The one who spoke up seemed like a certified background character. Brown hair, brown eyes, nothing memorable. Kaiden knew he would forget about his existence as soon as the guy wasn't in front of him.

Aria didn't bother responding—or rather couldn't, due to her extreme amount of shame. "Finally, someone good-looking. I was starting to get depressed by these mob characters." a woman's voice could be heard this time, the only one besides Aria in the group.

"Watch your tongue, whore!" all three guys shouted at her at the same time, but she didn't care at all and instead grinned at them mockingly.

"The truth hurts, doesn't it?"

"You better hope I'm not partnered up with you, or you will scream under me like a bitch!" The first loser decreed.

"Ooh. I'm shaking in my boots. Please, spare me! ... Anyway, Aria, would you mind introducing me to this gentleman?"

"No. Please leave me alone." The silver-haired girl retreated into her mental shell, refusing to accept reality.

"Well, I will just have to do it myself then," the energetic woman decreed, stood from her seat, and walked up to him.
