Spend Unreservedly

I'm not stupid. I swear. I know that there is a chance that I get even better skills in the future, and some that I may want to upgrade right away. However, when faced with the chance to get everything I ever wanted if I act fast, I'm gonna act fast. Dominate is one thing, but having an upgradeable passive skill is once in a lifetime. I'm fighting an uphill battle against myself to try and keep some points so I don't regret it later, but when you're in a room with an attractive woman and have the chance to fuck her right here and now, how do you expect me not to think with my dick?

Upgraded Skills:

Royal Authority (20 Skill Points) --> Holy Authority: The user gains divine presence, causing others to wholeheartedly respect, trust, and submit to the user upon first meeting. (Unaffected by resistances and immunities) Warning: May have differing effects on those who have been in contact with a deity.

Holy shit. I know I only have 24 Skill Points left, but there's no way I'm not getting this. Sure it might make things a little weird with people who I consider my equals, but that sure as shit doesn't outweigh the positives. This is a world level Skill. This is the kind of Skill reserved for divine beings, and a random guy from off the street can get it for 20 measly Skill Points? Sign me up.

Upgraded Skills:

Holy Authority (MAX)

Dominate II (3 Skill Points) --> Dominate III: Suppress the will of a target. Target will immediately change their mind about their most recent vocal decision. Warning: This does not work on an unspoken decision. The final decision will be whatever the target considers the opposite of the original decision. How the target feels about the final decision will not change from how they feel about the original decision.

Tutor II (2 Skill Points) --> Tutor III (Cost: 20 MP): The quintessential ability of a tutor. The user forms a tutoring contract with a tutee, granting the following benefits:

1. The tutor gains experience points relative to the growth of their tutee. (If a tutee gains a level, the tutor will gain a level, no matter the difference in level-up requirements.)

2. Tutees will improve 30% faster in all areas when taught by a tutor.

3. Intermediate mental magic will be applied to the tutee in order to facilitate understanding and willingness to be tutored, as well as increase respect for tutor. Higher ranking magic allows for more natural integration. (Ignores all resistances and immunities)

Warning: Tutoring contract cannot be created without consent from both parties.

Yeah I upgraded Dominate too, it just felt like the right thing to do. Even if Holy Authority is insanely effective, I don't think Laura will be able to just let go of our history. She may not bully me anymore, but if I want ****, Dominate is definitely a way of going about it. Also, seeing the specifications for Tutor III has given me an answer as to why Lily has been acting a little odd, her normal personality lashing out a bit against the new compulsions. With this, I'm all out of skill points. Better hope I won't regret it later.

I open my eyes to see Lily still writing in her diary. I'm a little nervous. Holy Authority sounds incredible when described, but now I don't know how to go about this.

"Hey Lily, could I have that for a bit?" I ask a bit cautiously, leaving space for me to use Dominate if Holy Authority isn't enough.

"Yes of course sir!" she responds a bit more enthusiastically than I expected. Even if you respect someone a lot, would you really be enthused about giving them free access to your personal diary? Whatever, I'm better off just enjoying the benefits than questioning the specifics. I take the diary from her hand, and flip through the pages. It gives me a little insight into her personality, and a vague image of her goals, but nothing substantial. I don't really know what I was expecting anyways. Maybe just the fact that it was something I could never normally see made it more exciting. Whatever the case, I have much more pressing matters to attend to. If she responded that enthusiastically about giving me her diary, how would she react to me getting a little more physical?

She's still a good bit taller than me, so I can't exactly push her down, but what I can do is grab her ass. So that's what I do. One hand, a bit of hesitation, a moment of movement, and suddenly my hand is groping and kneading her soft flesh. She looks at me in surprise, but makes no move to stop me. Shit, I still don't know how she's feeling. Her face is still the same blank mask I've been seeing since she became my tutee. This is great, but I don't know if I want to continue now. I could go out and test the true effects of Holy Authority, or I could continue here. This is my first time, and now that I have all this power I kind of want to make it a bit more special...
