Vanessa was taken aback by the sudden movement, but she liked it.
-Vanessa: "I am so close to him! Ah, his perfume, his manly grasp."
"What are you doing, if I may ask?"
She did not understand how that would help them escape that situation. What would Damian do?
"You see this badass cloak I am using? It can make us invisible; please stay close to me."
Damian disliked sharing information about his item, but if that made Vanessa enter his organization, then it was worth it! She would become someone with a lot of knowledge, and, more importantly, Damian would learn about the key he now had.
"What? Can this cloak make us invisible? Where did you get such a precious item?" Vanessa asked.
"Awesome, right? The leader gave me," Damian said.
He praised the mysterious leader of The Dawn organization as much as he could, as that would perhaps increase the chances of Vanessa joining him — he hoped so.
Damian activated the cloak, turning him and Vanessa invisible. It was not hard to spot what was the direction the intruders were hiding, and all they had to do after that was to leave through one of the windows on the opposite side.
"This is incredible!" Vanessa said.
"Shh, they can still hear us!"

There weren't many places for Vanessa to go, and they decided that she would stay in Damian's dorm for the night and would find somewhere else more hidden the next day. That was the best they could do in that situation.
So, with the help of the invisibility cloak, they left the area and went inside the boys' dorm, stopping inside Damian's room.
"Are you hungry? Let me see what you have here," Vanessa said after they arrived in the room.
She looked around for ingredients to make themselves some dinner, but Damian had little to no things at all. "You don't cook?" she asked.
"Me? No, I buy a burrito nearby, and that's it."
"…."
What she ended up doing was pasta with some tomato sauce. It tasted delicious, and the scent traveled through Damian's room, "so good!"
After eating, Damian cleaned up the dishes while Vanessa went to sleep. Although both had thought about having fun together, the invasion was still on their nerves, so none had the mood for such a thing.
Damian browsed through his System, the item area to be more precise, looking for something useful. He was more inclined to get excellent items instead of constantly buying new abilities.
Why? He knew it would take him time to improve the usage of said abilities, and the most powerful ones were too expensive and not worth it for him then.
"What is this ability? Kill anything with one punch? Let me see the price… 10 million Erotic Coins? Why do I feel this is a joke from this System?"
He had one ability that allowed him to do many things using his mind. It was versatile.
The other ability he had was passive, which Damian enjoyed the most, just like the items.
"Items and passive abilities are great because there's no training needed to use them."
Another ability he had was to learn the necromancy spells from the book, yet Damian was still figuring it out, but he was not in a hurry.
He wanted a versatile item to help him deal with his identity problem.
"Slime Ring? Let me see this."
<Slime Ring (Grade 1, Divine Item(Broken) : Grants the user the ability to control slimes. Not necessarily the slime beasts but the slime substance itself>
<Price: 200 Erotic Coins>
"The price is quite high, and it is only Grade 1? It says here I can buy the higher grades too, and there's also the possibility to fix the item."
Damian guessed the high price was because of how good the item was. A Divine Item? It had to be excellent, even if it was broken.
But 200 Erotic Coins? It would take him some time to get those, and instead of using them to increase his attributes, Damian would use them for an item.
"Is it worth it? There are examples of what it can do."
The System had additional information about the ring, precisely what Damian needed! It could create slime weapons and armor, use it to attack others, and, more importantly, change one's appearance or create a slime avatar!
That was precisely what Damian wanted, as he was now living a double identity! So itSo it was worth the price.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Another thing I noticed was that the number of coins needed for one attribute increased from one to two."
<Name: Damian Romero>
[Erotic Coins: 10]
[Attributes:]
<Strength: 12>
<Agility: 12>
<Endurance: 12>
<Ability Power: 15>
Before, the exchange was 1x1, but now Damian needed 2 Erotic Coins for one attribute point. It was not that big of a deal because he could still increase his attributes with body training, and learning how to use his superhuman ability increased the power of his body too!
"Even with this, my body will surpass most other superhumans of the same level, so I should be okay. Also, there are plenty of passives and items to buy to increase my attributes."
Damian was not worried at all! He only had to think about how he would get 200 Erotic Coins within three months — the time for his mission in the tournament.
The Slime Ring would help him a lot there, and Vanessa wanted to meet with the leader of The Dawn organization, and Damian believed he could stall her for a few months, but that was it. He could not do it for an extended period.
"Sex every day! Should I do it with different girls during the week, so the System has more chances of giving me Quests?"
After setting up his following goals: getting enough coins for the Slime Ring, and trying to learn some spells from his necromancy book, Damian went to bed, sleeping beside Vanessa.
She moved while sleeping, hugging Damian, making her feel safe.
Damian also slept but woke up during the night with a hand touching his crouch…
