Reborn as the Darling of the Delta.

"Hey, host, don't be like this. Why are you so concerned about your power? Look, after you acquired these talents, haven't they brought joy and convenience to the people in the Special Operations Department and to your Said? And look, when you need power, isn't there [Zero] to protect you? Don't you think the positive feedback you've brought to everyone is far greater than what you would have gained by directly giving you power?"

After listening for a while, Zhang Hao decided to overclock his brain's CPU. After some complex thought, he said calmly:

"You're just trying to manipulate me. If I had the power, I could just wipe out all these bad guys. Why go through all this trouble? Besides, the talents you've given me are all support-type. What, you think I'm cute so you can do logistics?"

9527 never expected that Zhang Hao, who was usually so easy to coax, would be so smart now. After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't come up with a good solution and could only compromise in the end.

"Alright, alright, I was wrong this time, okay? Calm down. I promise you, when you level me up to level 4, the treasure chest in your Mystery Shop that month will definitely contain something that will boost your combat power, okay!"

"Hmph, that's more like it. What protagonist spends all their time in logistics? They should at least go to the battlefield to show off and flirt with girls. Right now, all I can do is get all flustered by the older women in the Special Operations Department."

When Zhang Hao thought about his treatment compared to that of other protagonists, he could only feel resentful. He couldn't help but think that he looked exactly like the manipulative, gigolo type from his past life, which made Zhang Hao, with his boyish soul, feel uncomfortable.

Zhang Hao: Just kidding, it was actually really fun! (?'?`?)

What Zhang Hao didn't know was that this talent would soon come in handy.

When it was lunchtime, everyone gathered at the table. Strangely, Roy, who usually laughed and talked non-stop while eating, remained silent.

Mai Xiaowen, who would often argue with Luna at the dinner table over Xiao Hao, was also sitting quietly eating.

This puzzled Shen Lan, who had been staying in the kitchen and knew nothing about it. He first looked at Mai Xiaowen, who was doing well and would occasionally glance at Zhang Hao while eating. However, when she looked at Luna and Zoya, her eyes revealed a sense of fear.

However, Deep Blue looked at Roy, who was usually a goofball. His eyes were now lifeless, and he was eating his rice mechanically like a broken toy, without even taking a bite of the vegetables in front of him.

"Roy, hey, what's wrong with you? Didn't you like the food today?"

Deep Blue waved his hand in front of Roy's eyes and asked in confusion.

"Uh...ah? No, no, Shenlan, your cooking is fine. It's just that I don't have an appetite today. I'm full, so I'm going back to rest."

As if waking from a nightmare, Roy glanced at Shen Lan, who was concerned about him, and almost burst into tears. He quickly got up, ate the rice in his bowl, and went upstairs to return to his dormitory.

"Is he... really alright?"

Shen Lan looked at Roy, who was swaying as he walked, and noticed that he would occasionally cover his buttocks. She asked him with some concern.

"Hmm, I'll go check on him after I finish eating. Xiaowen, wait for me too. I'll come find you after I'm done with Roy. It's been so long since we took a nap together."

Zoya/Luna: Stare >﹏< Stare

"Okay, your sister is waiting for you in the room."

Upon hearing this, Mai Xiaowen seemed to recover a bit, and after patting Zhang Hao's head, she smiled happily.

Zoya/Luna: Oh no, we've ended up making her a wedding dress for us.

But thinking about how they hadn't done well before, the two of them didn't say anything more and continued to eat quietly.

"Sigh, I really feel sorry for Roy. I think we went a bit too far. Should we take something to see him later?"

Wei Long nudged Red Wolf beside him and whispered. Although the two of them hadn't used much force, the action was indeed somewhat hurtful to Roy's pride. So Wei Long prepared a brand new pair of gloves and went to check on Roy.

"Yeah, that's true. I'll get him a box of underwear later. I saw his underwear hanging outside earlier had three holes in it."

The two men who had done wrong started talking quietly, both seemingly realizing they might have gone too far this time and starting to think about what they could do to make amends.

"I'm full. I'm going to go check on Roy first!"

After finishing his meal, Zhang Hao said goodbye to the others and went upstairs to Roy's room.

Chapter 103 Comfort

Zhang Hao arrived at Roy's room and looked again, somewhat uncertainly, at the Charm of Language (Advanced) he had previously acquired, which had a label that read...

The Charm of Language (Advanced): Users naturally develop affinity with each other during language communication, mediation, and dialogue, which, combined with high visual appeal, makes the process twice as effective.

Zhang Hao then glanced at the charm value gift pack in his backpack, shook his head, and decided to deal with these two emo people first.

"Hey! Roy, you're still awake, aren't you? I'm coming in!"

Zhang Hao called out to someone inside and then pushed open the door. What came into view was Luo Yi sprawled on the bed like a salted fish.

"Huh? What brings you here? Hey, don't try to comfort me. I'm going to be a melancholic god and make these people regret losing their former source of joy, Roy. Next up will be the ruthless Super. Roy."

Looking at Roy, who seemed completely unreliable even though he was in a "not-so-good" mental state, Zhang Hao silently thought about what he would say to comfort him before slowly speaking.

"Roy, don't be too sad. Dragon and Red Wolf were just playing around with you. I know you must be upset right now. How about I have them come to apologize to you later?"

When Roy heard that the two would bring gifts to apologize, he was already overjoyed. But he knew it wasn't the time to be happy yet. What was wrong with Xiao Hao today? Why was he so happy after just a few words of comfort?

"Alright... cough cough cough, sigh, that would be too much of a waste for them. Forget it, I'll just stay in my room and lick my wounds by myself."

Roy: No, no, I can't laugh yet. I have to hold it in. It's not time to give myself away yet.

Zhang Hao looked at Roy, who had turned away again and was silently "sobbing," and directly questioned 9527:

"Hey, 9527, why is your talent useless? Do I have to use up that charm value gift pack before I can persuade you?"

9527 stared speechlessly at the two people in the room. Damn it, didn't you see Roy's lips curl up when he turned over?

"Ding, this system is giving you a brief reminder that the person you are comforting has reached a normal level of sadness and is currently in a state of happiness."

After listening to 9527's words, Zhang Hao looked suspiciously at Roy, who was still "sobbing."

If 9527 has no reason to lie to itself, then there is only one truth!

Roy is holding back a laugh!

Having reached his conclusion, Zhang Hao decided not to waste any more time on this guy. He also hadn't comforted his dear Xiaowen yet, so he was going to spend a nice afternoon nap with her.

"Roy, you can rest here for now. I'm going to find Wei Long and Uncle Red Wolf now, and I'll come back to apologize to you this afternoon. I'm leaving, bye-bye!"

Roy: ? ? ? ? ?

No, I'm already so pitiful, didn't they think of asking me for more things? Heavens, I should have just been direct with Xiao Hao.

But just as Roy turned around to say something to Zhang Hao, Zhang Hao had already closed the door.

Roy: ......

"Sigh, Xiao Hao still cares about me and even stood up for me. Waaah, it's a pity my precious daughter is still too young. Otherwise, I could accept him calling me Dad. What a pity, Xiao Hao can't even handle the three tigresses in the Special Operations Department here. Tsk tsk tsk."

Roy sighed, looking worried for Zhang Hao, and then decided to go to sleep while he was in a better mood, otherwise he wouldn't be able to fall asleep later.

"Oh my, no wonder Xiao Hao is so popular with those three girls. His psychological counseling skills are now on par with Shen Lan's. It seems I'll have to give him a few psychological lessons later."

As Roy pondered these thoughts, he gradually drifted off to sleep, hoping that this time he wouldn't dream of Wei Long and Red Wolf's big wooden clubs.

Zhang Hao also arrived at Mai Xiaowen's room without stopping. During this time, he sent a message to Weilong, saying that he had almost comforted Luo Yi and that the two of them should go and apologize in the afternoon. Luo Yi would most likely forgive them.

Weilong/Red Wolf: As expected of Xiao Hao, I need to take some time this time to learn from him.

Zhang Hao: That's right, just kidding. There's a lot to learn here. To comfort someone, you need my advanced skills. Do you understand what I mean?

After sending the text message, Zhang Hao pushed open Mai Xiaowen's door.

"Sister Xiaowen! I'm here!"

Seeing Mai Xiaowen sitting quietly in the chair, Zhang Hao leaped into her arms and rubbed against her like a kitten.

This action successfully amused Mai Xiaowen, who reached out and pinched Zhang Hao's cheek. The soft touch dispelled some of the gloom in her heart.

"Xiaowen, what happened to you earlier? Were you bullied by Luna and Zoya? Tell me, and I'll get revenge for you this afternoon!"

Zhang Hao said in a cute but fierce tone that although it was very likely to be like lambs to the slaughter, he still had to make his stance clear. Even if he was captured, he had to go. That's what a "real man" should do.

Zoya/Luna: Oh yeah, yeah, we were just teasing you! Come to my room tonight and cause trouble! ○( ＾皿＾)っHiahiahia…

"No, Xiao Hao, it's just that I feel like they... at a certain time, are kind of scary. You know... just think about it, if Wei Long kissed you, would you feel that way?"

Mai Xiaowen really wanted to describe what happened, but thinking that Zhang Hao was still so young and probably wouldn't understand, she changed to a more tactful way of telling Zhang Hao.

"Doesn't that mean Brother Weilong likes me a lot? Uncle Uluru kissed my cheek before, even though he was drunk and smelled a bit. Doesn't that mean everyone loves me?"

"What! Uluru kissed you on the cheek while he was drunk? Wait a minute, I'll send a message to Deep Blue."

After sending the message, Mai Xiaowen sighed helplessly. She wanted to say that she hadn't just been kissed on the face; everyone really treated Xiao Hao like a child, even though Zhang Hao said he was already 16. His innocent mind, cute face, and of course, his height...

"Um! Xiao Hao, what's wrong?"

Just as Mai Xiaowen was still thinking, her mouth suddenly felt like it had touched a fragrant marshmallow. She looked up and saw Zhang Hao pulling his mouth away.

"When you kissed me like that last time, Xiaowen, I saw that you were very happy. Seeing you like this now, I want to cheer you up too."

Zhang Hao lowered his head and rubbed his fingers together, his face flushed as he spoke.

In an instant, all the fear of being ambushed by a lesbian and all other messy thoughts were banished from Mai Xiaowen's mind. At this moment, she had only one thought.

"Then Xiao Hao...please make your sister even happier...(p≧w≦q)!"

Chapter 104 Super Charm (Bonus Chapter)

(Thanks to my amazing massage from the Eightfold Heaven Night White-haired Fox (σ≧▽≦)σ.)

I won't go into the details of the previous chapter again, I know you don't like reading that. So let's continue next time.

Around 4 p.m., because he was being held in Mai Xiaowen's arms the whole time, Zhang Hao found that he was starting to have difficulty breathing while he was in a daze. He woke up a little while later with his face flushed red.

Zhang Hao woke up groggily, tilted his head back and pulled it out of the mountain, gasping for breath.

"Ugh, they all like to hug me like a pillow. No way, I need to grow taller quickly so I can hug them to sleep."

Zhang Hao looked at the quiet room, the only sounds being the ticking of the clock and Mai Xiaowen's breathing. He suddenly remembered he hadn't used his charm value gift pack yet, so he closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, then found 9527 and asked:

"9527, how good is this gift pack? It's so expensive, can it directly max out my charm level?"

"Host, what time is it?"

"Um, around 4 o'clock, what's wrong?"

"Don't dream in broad daylight. This time I can only raise it to 96. You can decide how much you need for each subsequent upgrade."

Zhang Hao: ......Useless 9527.

"Damn it, no, why does it need to be so much later? You even told me to put all my points into this bottomless pit first, waaaaah, I trusted you so much, and you actually tried to scam me."

9527 looked at Zhang Hao, who was crying and making a scene, with a dark expression on his face.

"Do you remember what my mission was when I first started out?"

"Uh, I almost forgot. Dominate the world? Or destroy Hafk? You don't mean I have to hand over 1000 African Hearts, do you? 9527, I'm warning you, don't be too greedy. Some people haven't had a single one in three seasons."

9527:........
