The Handsomer You Are, the Stronger You Become

Ssssssssss—

The aura of Kang Hyunsoo’s beauty skill, Reality Awareness, radiated from his palm.

Though the energy was invisible, with no discernable color, the caster could feel its presence clearly.

The effect, however, was undeniable.

The transparent energy emanating from Kang Hyunsoo’s palm spread throughout the area.

“Huh...? What was I doing here?”

“Oh, right, I was on my way to work!”

“Ah, I was supposed to meet my friend in front of the department store. What was I thinking?”

The crowd that had gathered began to come to their senses one by one.

Even though Kang Hyunsoo was right in front of them, they didn’t blindly rush toward him like before. Instead, they merely glanced at him with curiosity before recalling what they had originally intended to do and gradually dispersing.

Watching this, Swallow, who was flying overhead, spoke in amazement.

• The effect is incredible, Master. The people blindly following you have snapped out of it.

‘Being popular isn’t all good. It’s more stressful than I thought.’

In his previous life, Kang Hyunsoo had envied those who were admired for their looks. He had thought it would be nice if people responded to him in the same way, especially after he became the Sword Emperor.@@novelbin@@

However, just as the saying goes, "every advantage has its disadvantage," popularity came with its drawbacks.

When he was unattractive, no one paid attention to him, allowing him to move freely. But now, after becoming handsome, every action he took was under scrutiny. He constantly felt the weight of people’s stares, and, as evidenced by moments like this, he was bombarded with requests for photos and autographs that intruded on his privacy.

At least, thanks to the Reality Awareness skill, he could minimize the chaos.

‘I should avoid coming to busy areas like this in the future.’

• Master, it seems someone is inside the store.

• She’s the inheritor of the Sin of Gluttony, Master. You must be cautious.

• Consuming food increases your strength.
• Only food digestible by your stomach can be consumed.
• The energy from consumed food is stored as a power called "Gluttony Force."
