Chapter 84: Rare Gem
"Ah!" Aria yelped cutely after realizing she was still buck-naked. The girl swiftly jumped to her feet and rushed into the bathroom, but not before grabbing onto Kaiden’s hands and dragging him along with her. She wanted to finish the sensual sex they had with a playful shower, it would’ve felt awfully lonely to wipe herself clean in her lonesome.
They ended the day when Aria went home to relieve the sitter watching her siblings. Nyx and Luna stayed with him in the hospital since he needed to wait for Elysia’s go-ahead to leave the hospital, which would happen early tomorrow.
The next day, Aria quickly sent her siblings to school and rushed back to the hospital. She was expected to work in the gym today, but after seeing their success, the girl knew she would likely be quitting so that she could fully dedicate herself to their business venture as well as leveling up in the dungeons.
Aria also had ’the talk’ with her siblings. Lux took it well and assured her that no matter what her classmates said of Aria, she would always be her beloved big sister, but Damian had a worse reaction; namely, he outright refused to speak with her. Aria hoped he only needed some time to digest the news.
Once the Moon Valkyrie was back, she gave Kaiden a big hug, and the four sat down on the sofa. They promised Aria not to look at his system’s statistics until she came back.
The assassination attempt on the president’s life and the launch of ChronosX stifled the interest Kaiden’s victory rightfully should’ve brought in, but things were still looking up, incredibly so at that. They went from being no-name nobodies to having a small online presence.
His video of pummeling the shit out of David had the biggest jump, reaching 250,000 views overnight.
Nyx’s views increased by another 50,000, reaching a total of 400,000 views, and her premium video gained another 10 unlocks. Much to the pink-haired voluptuous beauty’s annoyance, Luna’s video was gaining momentum and had nearly closed in on hers at 390,000 views.
Aria’s nurse play technically resulted in 4 videos, 2 free and 2 premium.
The one Kaiden recorded had 110k views, and 15 people unlocked his premium PoV.
Aria’s PoV had only 60k views but... "What the fuck!" Luna shouted in shock.
"Damn, that’s crazy," Nyx whistled with a fulfilled grin.
"I never expected girls to be this desperate...!!" Aria muttered bashfully, with pink cheeks adorning her delicate features.
"Did they truly enjoy seeing my face this much?" Kaiden asked with disbelief. 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓅𝓊𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
The conversion rate of people who were willing to pay for the premium content on his videos was very low, about one in 10,000 people.
Aria’s female-oriented video had...
One in a thousand. 60 people unlocked the premium video where they could enjoy a high-quality fantasy ride on Kaiden’s shaft.
"I told you, porn is boring as hell. I didn’t watch such content for a reason. This is revolutionary for the female viewerbase," Nyx said.
Seeing Kaiden was still confused, Luna elected to elaborate. "I agree with the pink bimbo. Adult content is made to be consumed by a grand majority of male viewers, which shows in the camerawork. We straight women aren’t interested in watching how the actress looks, yet the camera keeps focusing on her alone."
"So you’re saying this video is a rare gem for women." Kaiden surmised once he got the gist of it.
"Yes," Luna nodded before explaining even further. "In general, fewer women are interested in porn but those that are, are kinda down bad. Most men just do the deed and exit the video while women tend to gain more emotional fulfillment from it. They likely loved watching how you reacted to the different ways Aria pleasured you. Furthermore, knowing the video featured the guy who heroically overcame all odds to protect his lovers’ image made the viewers deeply invested. To them, it was more than porn. It was a wonderful emotional rollercoaster that made their hearts melt from joy."
"... That’s amazing. In the end, it seems my approach to adult content was the right one. Rushing out content isn’t the correct way for long-term benefits," Kaiden concluded with a happy smile and went to check his statistics.
Views went from 671,398 to 965,000, meaning he had almost already met the requirement to rank his system up as far as the views statistic went, while he already shot past the goal for income as it went from 59.8 to 163. His fight with David had already earned them a good 8 Chronos as well, but those numbers were not counted toward the statistics of the system.
"We made more than 15,000 dollars..." Nyx whispered with disbelief. Her heart was beating faster than a racehorse’s. She was so damn excited! "Some people don’t make that much after working hard for months, yet we did it in a few hours!"
"This calls for a celebration!" Luna shouted with similar levels of excitement.
"What about the fangirls?!" Aria asked with a great deal of hope, which was evident in her big, beautiful eyes. She did the nurse roleplay to please her man first of all, of course, but also in hopes it would be the tipping point that broke the dam.
[Fangirls 1 → 12]
"It went up by eleven!" Kaiden announced with pure joy—he was finally released from the stress that was caused by the ambiguous requirements of the statistic. Well, he still didn’t get how it worked, but things were finally starting to change.
Kaiden was so happy that he grabbed Aria and planted her in his lap, after which he immediately started slobbering her in kisses. He did not doubt in his head that this big improvement came from the effort this wonderful existence put in for him.
"Leave some of her for tomorrow..." Luna grumbled as she eyed the silver-haired supermodel with jealous eyes.
She wanted to be the one who helped Kaiden get over this annoying hump!
Once he finally let go of his awesome lover, Nyx spoke up with an amused tone. "So what about the celebration?"
"We shall celebrate by entering our first-ever dungeon." Kaiden stated before continuing, "$15k is a truly insane amount, but we can’t earn this much every day. As I explained before, this business model I’ve crafted only works if the adult content we release remains a novelty, not an everyday occurrence. People were willing to shell out so much money to unlock our premium content not only because of the quality of our films but also because they found us interesting as people due to what happened with David. They were attached to our stories, our personalities. We will have to keep the momentum going by doing things that make people interested, and what better way to do that than a successful dungeon stream?"
"I’m so down!" Nyx shouted as her excitement turned into overdrive.
Kaiden would be lying if he said he wasn’t excited. To that end, he clapped his hands together, drawing everyone’s attention to him. Then, with a big grin, he declared, "Ladies, it’s time for Valhalla’s Sinners to gear up."
