Chapter 46: Overpowered System
Ben sincerely believed he was making optimal use of the system.
"I mean... what else could be more important than increasing the size of my cock?" he wondered.
"And also getting strong..."
"Yes...that too."
"So what did she mean ?" Ben thought with his right hand slowly stroking his underchin.
’System,’ he willed in his mind as his status came into view.

Aside from these visible panels in front of him, the only other options are the two symbols on the upper corner: one with the symbol of the telephone, which he uses to communicate with the goddess, and the other was still greyed out.
No matter how much Ben tried, that greyed-out option was still unreactive, so he reasoned it couldn’t be that.
For his realm section, Ben would soon be raising it through the system since he can’t do it the natural way, though he would have to pace the rate of his rise so it’s at least believable.
For his penis size section, this was the option Ben had been using the most, and since the next increase would require a full million sex points, he would sadly have to hold back on that at the moment until he had enough.
The sex points section was self-explanatory; it keeps tally of his total remaining sex points, which would then leave the last two options that he has used the least so far.
Both options he has only used once actually.
The shop, he used to purchase his first test merchandise, that was subsequently stored in his system inventory, which was quite easy to use and retrieve.
Ben felt he was utilizing them properly... unless he was not.
"Wait.... a shop?"
"Why did I only imagine this shop function to be able to provide only physical goods?"
The more Ben thought about it, the more he put the goddess’s words into perspective. It appeared he had allowed his reasoning to be constrained by what the definition of a shop meant from his world.
"In this world of the impossible, with powers and quirks...can I also purchase something unnatural?"
"After all.... The prompt simply showed to search; there was never any restriction to what I can search for."
"Could this be what she meant ?"
"It’s worth a try."
Thinking along these lines, Ben proceeded to activate the system shop in his mind, as the familiar interface sprang to view.
~~~~~~~~
[Please Input Search....]
~~~~~~~~~
"Alright. Here goes nothing..."
"I need a power that would allow me to fly freely through the air."
"....."
Ben threw out the most ridiculous request that came to mind in the moment.
He didn’t request a product or goods, but for the ability to fly freely through the air, one of the most common wishes of most humans from his world.
The exact same wish that led the Wright brothers to develop the most famous means of transport of modern times.
Ben wasn’t sure what to expect... but the result left him gobsmacked... completely different from the first time he had used the system shop.

"What ?!"
Ben stared wide-eyed at the variety of options presented before him....
And he didn’t miss the fact that these were the available options to him presently....meaning there could be more in the future.
"So I can purchase abilities ?...what type of broken system is this ?"
There was also the fact that it seemed the search had brought out only abilities that his current balance of sex points can purchase.....
Meaning the other options he couldn’t yet access might just be incredibly powerful.
But as Ben looked at the options before him, he wasn’t really interested in any of them...especially the first two.
"Fuck that!. I won’t be turning myself into some fucking bird."
"But this...this is amazing!" Ben thought in delight at the prospect that this discovery held.
The pricing was a little steep....but for what he needed, it would be worth it.
Though he had selected flight ability to search for, Ben really had no present use for such an ability. What he needed most was....
"system .... Start new search..... Search for abilities that can help mask my realm."
This was a very easy one. With this ability, Ben could ramp up his advancement, not concerning himself about the fact that he would be drawing in unneeded attention in addition to all the other things he would be doing.

[Available Options:- ]
[Realm Concealment Ability (Warrior);- 500SP
Realm Concealment Ability (Master):- 5000SP
Realm Concealment Ability (Noble):- 50000SP

"That’s... cheap?" Ben muttered unconsciously, seeing the price.
"What am I even talking about?. That’s not cheap!. Only hours ago I couldn’t even afford a thousand sex points..."
"I guess what they say is true....wealth really does change a man," Ben murmured, nodding gently at his slowly changing mindset.
Looking at the options before him, it was only logical that he purchased the most expensive one. He couldn’t select the options to expand what they meant.....
but he could at least infer from the name that this concealment ability would be effective against even someone at the noble realm...which was good enough for now.
"Purchase." Ben gave the other without even thinking much about it.
Instantly, he saw his sex points balance drop by a full fifty thousand.
But Ben wasn’t troubled by this...he still had enough to do all the other things he planned for.
At the same time, a new option materialized on his status window....

Ben was almost elated seeing the addition...until he caught sight of the next line next to the skill....
"What the fuck?!....why’s it locked ?"
Ben had invested fifty thousand of his hard-earned points (literally)....
Into the purchase of this new ability, and the system had it locked for some reason....
Ben began forcing his will on that option to get some sort of reaction....
Until finally, he got a response from the system....This was the first time the system had ever given such a direct response...
[Host Lacks Natural Power....]
[Skill Locked For Host’s Safety.]
