[Congratulations, you've obtained a ***** star template]
Suddenly, a golden-colored system screen appeared in front of me and told me it had given me a powerful template, just as I had always wanted, but why did I feel uneasy inside?
I had always thought that the templates the system would give me would gradually become more powerful. Maybe the next template would be three-star, or I'd complete another two-star template and then get a three-star one, I guessed.
My worst guess was that if I completed at least three two-star templates 90% of the way, I'd move up to the three-star level.
But suddenly getting a five-star template? If I haven't completely misunderstood the system, this shouldn't be a good thing.

[Tips for Lilith]
[For it to go back to the way it was. Before I had angels to deal with twenty-four/seven. The good old days, when it was all baby blood, all the time.]
[I've been stuck in hell for a long, long time. Now it's time for chaos and fun]
[Oh, human soul. How delicious]
[You have one year to complete this template]
[Remember, host, the higher the grade of the template you obtain, the greater the rewards and punishments]
Oh...
It's even worse than I expected.
Both a female character and a full-fledged demon.
What do I need to do to advance this template? Should I cut off my third leg and eat human babies? Maybe I should use my body to seduce human men?
Damn it!
This time I might have really screwed up.
[You received a hint from Lilith: Don't worry, sweetie. I love you even more this way]
...........
Author's note: for those who don't know, Lilith is a character from the TV series "Supernatural." According to the series, when Lucifer, the chief angel god, created humans, he became jealous and seduced the soul of one of the first humans, making her the first devil and rebelling against God.
And that first devil is Lilith. You can check the wiki for more information.

Suddenly, a seductive voice came from behind my right ear, and I turned around in fear. If someone could get this close to me silently in this deserted forest, it couldn't be good.
But there was no one behind me, and a system screen displaying what I had heard explained everything to me.
Huff, I even thought someone had blown into my ear.
Yeah, actually, it's not surprising.
"Hey system, I don't know if you're aware, but Lilith is using your hint-giving thing like a normal speech bubble."
[System updating...]
[Update complete]
[Lilith: Got it. Why did hearing the voice of a lovely woman like me scare you, little Eren?]
All the hairs on my body stood on end with Lilith's tone of voice.
I can sense she's trying to use a seductive voice, but deep within it lies a dark and obsessive undertone.
Anyway, I just escaped from Orochimaru's clutches. Getting scared this quickly really makes me look like a wimp. I can't let her take control.
"First, you're not a pretty woman. Second, I'm older than I look."
[Lilith: Is that so? Ha ha ha. Looking at your soul, I'd guess you're 50 at most. To me, you're like a child who just learned to talk.]
"Nah, I think you're too old. You're an old grandmother."
[Lilith: Actually, I'm starting to think you're cute. After I'm done with you, you'll make a very good king of hell.]
"Thanks, but I won't be king of hell. For one thing, I get bored easily. Torturing souls for years and years isn't really my thing."
[Lilith: You don't need to torture children to be the king of hell. Being the king of hell means having infinite freedom. Infinite money, infinite beauty, infinite life... Think about it.]
What is this woman talking about?
Does she think she's the only one who knows me?
I watched her TV show. I know very well how skilled a strategist and liar this seductive-looking woman is.
Should I tell her that I already know her and stop trying to manipulate me for nothing? After all, if I keep this information to myself and try to play manipulation games with her, I'll probably end up being the one being manipulated.
But if I call her a manipulative bitch outright and she stops trying to manipulate me, who knows what will happen. She might demand I sacrifice hundreds of people to demonic gods in a fit of rage, just to increase the similarity by five percent.
It's best not to talk too much and to be careful about manipulation.
"Well, you could say I'm quite happy with my current situation. Being king in general, not the king of hell, means having a lot of responsibility. I don't think I could really handle such a huge burden."
[Lilith: Okay, no pressure, don't worry. I can't force you to do anything if you don't want to. Ha ha... As long as you want, you can turn yourself into a woman and try to live like me. Oh, by the way, my favorite sexual fantasy is to take possession of a little girl and have a relationship with her father. If you do that, you'll probably gain my powers in no time. Ha ha ha]
You sick bastard!
"That sounds disgusting."
[Tastes and colors aren't up for debate, baby]
