Chapter 41

He couldn't help but wince strongly at the comment. Kaiden knew she was right, but one prefers not to think of their mother like that.

"Rude goblin child!" It was Nyx who repeated Aria's earlier insult this time.

"Yeah, this girl has too big of a mouth!" The silver-haired beauty nodded in agreement.

"Hey! If I'm a child, then Kaiden is a pedo... just putting it out there."

The man in question awkwardly coughed into his palm, continuing as if nothing happened. "If Scarlet were to become a pornstar, her videos would get the most views bar none, even if they were mediocre and even after the novelty of them were to wear off, simply because it's incredibly hot to watch a strong person have steamy, lovey-dovey sex. I imagine the same to be true from the viewpoint of female viewers. This means that growing in strength will in itself boost our views in whatever else we decide to pursue.

And then, the last point: fun, but we can also call it 'approachability.' You, Luna, wanted to become a game streamer. I'm sure the two of you also have things you want to do but think that since you've starred once as porn actresses, most other doors have been closed." After getting a few reluctant nods accepting his words thus far, Kaiden continued.

"I think it's the exact opposite. Let's take Luna as an example. She was just another cute gamer girl—although I'm sure the cutest—in a sea of them. She had no real success for one reason or another. But let me ask: how many more people would flock to her stream if there were videos of us doing the deed? What if I was playing alongside her as well? What if they could also watch the two of us destroy a scary, gigantic monster in a dungeon? I think we would get a myriad of viewers.

Mighty existences like who we will become soon enough, sitting down in front of a computer, chatting and gaming together, cooking together, going on a trip to the beach after slaying a boss monster or after uploading the hottest tape the world has ever seen would make us so much more approachable than the awakened of today who act like they are supreme beings, an entirely different breed compared to commoners.

And sure, some of the viewers would be haters, but so what? We need thick skins to survive in this world. Some controversy—some drama will only make watching us even more intriguing.

All that is to say—personal might as awakened people, sex as very compatible partners, and content creation with our unique personalities and existences as both awakened and pornstars would come together to create a cycle of people endlessly flocking to all kinds of content we create. Doing so would then let me stack up on the statistics the system wants me to, you would become powerful women who could stand up to both humans and monsters on your own, and we would be having the time of our lives while doing so.

And that's just my opinion as a man. I'm sure you ladies would have a lot of input on how to draw in the female audience. I do need my fangirls, after all."

As Kaiden finished the detailing of his master plan, silence descended on the room.

"You thought this through..." Aria finally murmured after a few minutes.

He nodded, "I did. I firmly believe that if we can deal with the hate and spite we would receive for being this shameless, we will all live amazing lives. The strong rule the world, and we have a chance to become rich, influential, and powerful in one fell swoop. I consider this a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

Luna started playing with her two locks of purple hair, visibly deep in thought. "Hmm... The pink bimbo's earlier claim about us not being able to live like normal women after today's filming is true for sure. If that's the case, why not just embrace it with our entire being and go all in...? As Kaiden said, we would get a lot of haters, but as long as we support each other, I think that's more than enough. As they say, having a few true friends is much better than numerous shallow ones. Furthermore, if we do become strong, we will have many enemies anyway. I'm sure lots of people would rejoice if Scarlet or Vespera were to die or have an ugly downfall."

Kaiden was happy to see the rather troublesome girl call Aria and Nyx her true friends. He'd noticed that even during their biggest clashes, there wasn't an ounce of hatred in any of them. They were just being playful in their feisty way.

Luna then shyly glanced at Kaiden before averting her gaze and adding, "What's more, I'm reluctant to admit it, but I didn't dislike what happened today. I would even go as far as to admit I enjoyed it greatly. Just think about it: how fun would our lives be? We could even move in together to a faraway, empty location and live as we want. I could have my streams, Aria could do her makeup tutorials or whatever she enjoys, and Nyx... I guess you're only good for getting your twin towers demolished by Kaiden's girthy airplane. We could also party together, clear dungeons, and maybe even make our guild one day."

"Hey!" Nyx protested at being looked down upon so badly. "I do have my hobbies, I'll have you know! I love cooking, for example. I could become an online chef. I also enjoy talking; I could see myself doing podcasts. But honestly, I'm most interested in becoming a strong awakened. Or a Valkyrie, I suppose, since we don't know if we were to awaken actually."

"Kaiden, what would you do if we denied?" Aria suddenly asked.

"I would continue being your friend and, hopefully, your lover after inviting you on some dates and asking you out," Kaiden replied honestly.

"But you would get other girls to be your Valkyries?" she prodded him further for a definitive answer.

"Yes," he decreed firmly. "I'm asking you three because I've grown to like all of you, and I want to experience this supernatural journey I'll undertake with the system in my soul alongside you three. I can't imagine others being my Valkyries, but I'm not going to just not have Valkyries because you refuse."

"I don't want to see other girls being your Valkyries..." Aria whispered with a strong hint of distaste in her tone.

"Ah, screw it! We only live once! Kaiden, I wish to be your Valkyrie!" Nyx decreed suddenly after she slammed her fists on the table. She seemed very determined.

"So this is really happening?!" Luna asked excitedly before turning toward Kaiden. "Please make me your Valkyrie as well! I would never miss out on such a crazy, fun adventure."

Aria was the final one, so all eyes zoned in on her. She gulped and then nodded to herself while gripping her palm into a fist. "I wish to be your Valkyrie, too! And... Kaiden, please be my boyfriend!"

"Hah?!" Luna roared, greatly agitated at what she heard.

"Bold. Good job, Aria!" Nyx congratulated coyly.

Ding!

'Holy...!!!'As Kaiden read the reward obtained for completing this hidden quest, he couldn't help but exclaim inwardly from sheer shock at what was in front of his eyes.
