Chapter 212 The power of confidence

Ben strolled up to the Latrine doorman. "Hey, we’re on the list."

The suited man eyed him up and down for a moment, then shook his head as he sneered and looked away.

Ben narrowed his eyes. "Go check your list. Like I said, we’re on it."

The doorman wanted to ignore him, but when he observed Ben’s confident body language, he restrained himself, because he knew there were some patrons who attended this club who he couldn’t afford to offend. While Ben didn’t look like one of them, his assertive posture gave the experienced doorman the impression he wasn’t lying. "What’s your name?"

Ben smirked. "Benny BeVito...+3."

...

The doorman gave the list a casual glance through thinned eyes, thinking if this brat was lying to him, he’d have the bouncers to throw his ass down the street for good. A moment later though, he blinked...because there it was!

He stared at Ben for a few moments...before opening the velvet rope. "All right."

Ben turned his head to his three friends, and smirked as he waved them over. Seeing everything that was happening, they gawked in disbelief. Yet, they soon joined Ben as they all walked inside through the dimly-lit entrance.

"Yo cuz! How’d you do that? You threaten the nut-tap?"

"Teach me the divine curse..."

"Sigh...Benjamin, I hope you didn’t offer him too much of yourself."

"SHUT UP!" Ben just got these bastards in but he wished he left them outside now...

As for how he did it? It was with an item he picked up a while ago.

’It was useful at last.’ Ben chatted with his friends while pretending it was his personal charm though...

However, all their attention was soon captured by the posh interior of the club they entered. It was simply opulent. With big eyes, everyone looked around, as blasting dance music became louder with each step further inside. What greeted them was expensive leather and suede furniture, chandeliers, and staff in suits. There was an exotic, other-worldly vibe too, due to the Red neon lighting that colored the air and the walls. Yet, what was most eye-catching, was the clientele.

The further they went in, the more people they ran into, and the more shocked they became. Every single woman was beautiful, and every man was handsome and tall! They towered over Ben! It forced him to experience a certain fantasy: ’I’m among true six-clawed dragons and phoenixes!’

It wasn’t something that pleased him though. Instead, like suffering under a dragon aura, it made him feel nervous, like he didn’t belong here!

Chuck and Antonio weren’t any better either, and Even Beluga wasn’t completely unaffected. The truth was that none of them ever stepped into this club before and weren’t sure what to expect, but now they learned they’d underestimated this place!

As they walked into the main dance area, the four PUAs looked even more awkward among the rich, tall, and beautiful on all sides... It forced Ben to stop by a wall to get his bearings, as they all followed him.

Even though he’d been successful with women in the recent past, that was still somewhat within his comfort zone, in his university environment among students. However, in this place, he held no competitive advantage! He was at the bottom! In terms of stats, which one of these men wasn’t crushing him? Which one of these women wasn’t out of his league?

Even Antonio who was more experienced looked uneasy as he turned to Beluga. "Beluga, you chose this club, but...isn’t this a bad spot for us? Only the top class girls come here. That would normally be lit, except here, they came to meet high-status dudes: millionaires, athletes, models, all categories we ain’t qualified for..."

Hearing this, Chuck and Ben frowned, seeming a bit down, because they thought the same thing.

Yet, Beluga only smiled, his confident attitude not having weakened one bit. "Look, I’m sure that being around high-class females and competitor alphas like this, your instincts are probably screaming at you that you have no chance." The three juniors exchanged glances, and understood they all shared that feeling. So, when they saw Beluga’s firm expression, they couldn’t help but wonder why he was different.

Beluga never planned to hold back though, and soon shared his secret. "Your instincts are telling you to flee, but if you want to soar higher, the only way is to challenge yourself, and the first step to do that—is to ignore those instincts!"

His eyes flared as his words captured their attention, drowning out the club music in the background. "Don’t respond based on those impulses! I know what’s going through your head: ’I’m not good enough. I’m out of my depth.’ Well, the fact is, there’s no point worrying about not being good enough! It’s useless!"

Beluga spread a helpless smile. "When I started like you, I also worried about it, and you know where it got me? Nowhere...

It wasn’t until I gained enough experience, that I realized...I was worrying about nothing! Because the reality is, to pick up the hottest females, you don’t need money and model-looks!

Hearing this assertive declaration, the three young men’s eyes widened. They understood the power of seduction skills or they wouldn’t be here, but to say you can get the best girls without those things women value so much...it seemed hard to believe.

Beluga sneered. "I know what you’re thinking, but it’s true. To get top-quality females, you don’t need to be a billionaire, all you need...is the confidence of a billionaire!"

"The confidence of a billionaire?" Ben repeated it as he and Antonio looked at each other.

"How do we do that?" Chuck’s big eyes stared at Beluga with eagerness.

Beluga nodded with appreciation. "It’s not as hard as you think. In time, you’ll realize like I did that strong game has its own status. Meanwhile, until you become an experienced veteran, all you have to do—is play the role! Act confident and you’ll become confident! If you manage to get past those instincts that keep you on the losing side, then you can condition yourself, to join the winning side!"

The three showed various expressions as they considered his words. Confidence...it was something they’d already heard was important, but was it really so magical? Wasn’t it easier said than done? It was hard to believe that’s all it took.

Seeing their doubt, Beluga only smiled, with genuine confidence... "Watch this."

He gazed around the nearby area, until he found the most gorgeous woman he could see, and approached her...

*Author’s Note: Last notice on this. For whoever missed it yesterday, this is a reminder that yesterday’s second chapter was a free prologue in volume 0. doesn’t show it as latest chapter so I had to write about it here. It adds a lot of context to the system and worldbuilding aspects of the novel and I urge you to read it if you haven’t already. It’s very entertaining as well according to everyone who’s read it so far, so if you haven’t, do so. Trust me, you won’t regret it.
