The first thing my girlfriend did after making it was dump the man she loved? She thinks I’m poor?
Fine, good riddance. I’m done with love. Even dogs don’t date!
[Ding! The Host has severed his romantic ties. Skill Proficiency Panel successfully bound!]
[Repeat any action to gain a skill and level it up without limit!]
I glance at a stock chart: [Ding! Congratulations, Host, you’ve acquired the skill: Financial Trading (Beginner)!]
Click, click, click! An hour later... [Financial Trading has increased to: Proficient (520/1000)!]
The greed and fear of the capitalists behind the screens are nothing but red and green lines to me!
I go for a run and end up panting like a dog: [Ding! Congratulations, Host, you’ve acquired the skill: Long-Distance Running (Beginner)!]
Lap after lap! [Your physical fitness has increased slightly! Your endurance and cardiopulmonary function now surpass those of 99% of adult men!]
From then on, a legend was born in Shanghai: the ultimate grinder.
Grind at [Finance], and I’m the Wolf of Wall Street!
Grind at [Combat], and I’m the city’s ultimate soldier!
Grind at [Driving], and even the Akina Mountain Drift King will have to light my cigarette!
(Smirks) I could even grind at [Flirting]... Pretty landlady, big sis, why are you blushing?
Wait, this panel is way too flexible! No missions, no death penalties, just self-motivation?
That’s perfect. I’m going to grind my way through this whole world!
