My Life In A Fantasy, Women-Dominated World-Chapter 87: Universal Threshold

Aaron woke up with a grunt.

His body felt sore all over, muscles feeling numb and limbs aching like no tomorrow.

His head felt disoriented and ringing with a dull headache that made everything appear double or even triple.

Last time he felt like this was when he passed out drunk, or maybe even that wasn’t this bad.

Memories of the afternoon ’tumble’ came rushing over him, reminding him how he passed out after finishing inside of Claire.

"Hnngh,"

Feeling his movement over herself, Claire moaned softly, her body shifting uncomfortably under him.

"Ah sorry," Aaron now realized that he was still laying over her, his whole weight pressing onto her soft body.

Though, even after realizing, he didn’t quite feel like moving away.

His head rested on the softness of her plush breasts, a feeling so comfortable that he would’ve loved to stay on them for the rest of his life.

Alas, Claire regained her senses and pushed him off herself, taking long and greedy puffs of air as if she was suffocating earlier.

"What... the fuck was that..." Claire wheezed, coughing and massaging her head slowly, "I feel like I had my energy sapped away, I feel so tired."

Aaron chuckled, "Quite opposite for me, my cells feel as if they are bursting with energy."

His eyes settled onto her gorgeous face, blinking many times until the two Claires began converging into a single, clearer image.

"The system has a good naming sense." Claire pouted, pressing over her own body with shivers running down her spine.

With a single scan of her body, she realized that nearly 80% of her entire mana was sapped out of her, slowly recovering passively as her pores absorbed the natural, ambient mana.

"You’re calling me a leech now?" Aaron shot back, humming, "Seems one time wasn’t enough, huh?" he grinned.

Claire instantly clenched her legs, gritting her teeth and hissing at him, "You bastard, you’re using your skills. That’s unfair, I dare you to do it without them. I will show you who’s the boss."

Aaron simply laughed at her cute rants, before pulling up the status window.

He was dying to know what improvements his skill brought.

[ User: Aaron Cross ]

[ Intelligence: 58 (+38) ]

[ Magic: 190 ]

[ Additional Points: 10 ]

[ Skills: 3 / 5 ]

[ Inventory: 1/1 (Swordstaff) ]

Aaron gulped seeing his stats.

From no angle does those look like stats of a level 10 entity. His magic was already on the verge of breaking through the 200 mark, and his other stats were also improving rapidly.

What he lacked were good battle skills, but as they say, sometimes pure strength is enough to overwhelm the most skillful player.

And noting down his exp and stats, he was more than satisfied.

He noticed the increase in his strength and agility, which were Claire’s strongest suits, and he also noticed that his exp percentage jumped from 12 to 73%!

It was a rise of 61% of exp, something he won’t even gain if he slain a level 10 monster.

Nearly 6 stat points, 61% exp... all just by doing sex?

Sure, it felt uncomfortable at the time it happened, but even that was a slight turn on considering how much the pressure was enhanced.

Claire noticed his greedy, smug expression, grumbling under her breath, "What did you get?"

"61% exp and 6 stats." Aaron answered in a levelled, nonchalant tone.

As if they were rookie numbers. And they indeed were, as he didn’t wait any more seconds to dump all his excess points into magic!

However, the moment he added one additional point into magic, something unexpected happened.

His magical aura burst out of him, wrapping around him in a thin, protective embrace.

[ User Aaron Cross has broken through a universal threshold. ]

A system screen popped up, making his eyes widen as he fell backwards on the bed, startled.

But uncaring to his surprise, the holographic screens continued to pop up.

[ Stat: Magic has reached 200 Units. ]

[ Universal clause, limited growth has been applied. ]

[ Stat enhancing value has been reduced by 50%. ]

He blinked, he rubbed his eyes, he stared.

The screens stayed unchanging and his mind went blank, trying to understand what the notifications even meant.

Enhancing value has been reduced? What was his enhancing value?

He quickly opened his title and checked it, but there were no changes. All his perks remained as they were.

"What’s wrong?" Claire asked gently after noticing his panicky look.

But his mana was still wrapped around him tightly, reducing the surrounding noises and making him partially deaf, as he wasn’t able to hear Claire.

"Aaron?" Claire asked again, but no reply.

On the other hand, Aaron understood that thinking was going to achieve nothing.

He still had 9 more additional points remaining to his name, and without overthinking it, he added one into magic.

The process was smooth, he barely felt a change within himself as the magic stat only increased his total mana tank, not fill it automatically. He would need to wait for that space to get filled.

However, that wasn’t his concern.

What concerned him was the fact that...

[ Magic: 205 ]

It should be 210, not 205.

And then it finally hit him, the message about the universal clause, that his stat enhancing value was lowered by 50%.

He didn’t understand the intricacies of the matter, but he understood what it entailed.

He sighed, dumping his remaining 8 additional points into the magic stat as well.

In his books, 5 was still greater than 1.

And even if it became 1, he would still prioritize magic as that was simply the highest, and increasing it made his other stats go higher automatically.

[ Magic: 245 ]

No more clauses or restrictions came up again, and Aaron finally realized how stifled his senses felt. No sound, no instincts, it was as if he was in another dimension and only the sense of sight worked.

Looking at Claire, he noticed that she was looking at him in worry, contemplating whether to disturb his mana covering or not.

With a single thought, his mana receded back into his body, flowing seamlessly through the stream.

His eyes settled onto hers, lips curling into an obnoxious smirk that made Claire regret ever being worried about him.

"Guess my magic stat." he grinned.
