"Human flesh." the creature made a hissing sound as it throw itself weakly.
Akira crawled backward. His heart beating fast. So fast as if it would burst from his chest. "Don't come near me!" he shouted, holding the dagger up with shaking hands.
The creature didn't stop coming forward. It jumped at him with its claws out.
In a panic, Akira waved the dagger around. The blade went into the creature with a squishy sound, and green slime poured out everywhere, splashing on his hands and shirt.
"Die! Just fucking die and leave me alone!" Akira screamed, pulling the dagger out and stabbing it again.
The creature screeched loudly and wriggled on the ground, more green goo spreading out around it.
Then something strange happened.
A gross, sickly green puff of smoke started coming out of the monster's wounds, swirling around like it was alive. Before Akira could even react, the mist rushed right at him and went into his mouth and nose! Ew!
He gagged and started coughing hard, but it was useless… the mist just kept pouring inside him.
Everything blurred, and then wild images started filling his mind: bodies moving in pleasure, power sparking from his fingers, women bowing at his feet, and kingdoms stretching out as far as he could see.
Conquest. Domination. Ecstasy.
Then, a very soft and kinda flirty girl's voice popped right into his brain. "Host acquired."
Akira fell on his knees holding his head. "What... what's happening to me?"
The voice only sounded more amused. "Erotic Destiny Divergence System activated. Welcome, Akira Kanzaki. Your pathetic life ends here. Now, diverge into ecstasy."
Then, suddenly, there was a bright red text right in front of his eyes, floating on a see-through screen!
[SYSTEM INITIALIZED]
[HOST NAME: AKIRA KANZAKI]
[CHARM: 2/100]
[POWER: 5/100]
[PERV-POINTS: 50]
"This can't be real," Akira said out of breath. "I'm hallucinating. I hit my head or something."
"Oh, but it is very real, darling," the voice whispered. "You killed a lust demon at a convergence point. And now? Now you belong to me. We're bonded, you and I."
"Bonded? What are you talking about?"
"I am the Erotic Destiny Divergence System. Think of me as your guide... your partner in pleasure and power. Every choice you make will shape your fate. You can decide to seduce, conquer, or dominate. And with each success, you'll earn Perv-Points to buy skills, abilities, and unlock delicious romantic scenarios."
The text in front of his eyes changed:
[PERV-POINTS can be used to:]
- Purchase Skills
- Enhance Attributes
- Unlock Special Scenes
- Influence Destiny
Akira staggered to his feet on shaking legs. The demon's dead body had dissolved into ash, leaving only the dagger with the green goo in his hand.
"This is insane," he muttered.
But as he was talking, he noticed something. His body felt… kinda different in a way… as if he was stronger than it had been a few minutes ago.
He clenched his fist to see, then punched the air. "Am I dreaming or something?" he asked in disbelief.
"A small bonus from killing your first demon," the system explained. "But don't get cocky. You're still weak. Still pathetic. But now... now you have potential."
Akira looked down at himself. He still had the same pudgy body… the same greasy hair, and the same round face.
"I don't look any different," he said.
"Physical transformation takes time and points," the voice said with a teasing lilt. "But your stats have improved. You're a level one player now, darling. Time to start your game."
"Game?" Akira wiped the green blood from his hands onto his torn cape. "What kind of game?"
"The game of desire and destiny. You want revenge on Sakura, don't you? You want to make her pay? I can help you. I can help you make them all pay... in the most delicious ways possible."
Akira's jaw tightened. The memory of Sakura's laughter, her cruel words, the video going viral… it all came rushing back.
"Yes," he said quietly. "I want revenge."
"Good boy," the system purred. "But revenge is just the beginning. With me, you can build an empire of desire. Women will worship you. Power will flow through you. You'll become everything you've ever dreamed of."
Akira started walking back toward town, his mind racing. As he came out from the woods, the system spoke again.
"First choice incoming, darling. Will you indulge or resist?"
"Choice?" Akira stopped. "What choice?"
"Every day, I'll present you with choices. Each path leads somewhere different. Choose wisely... or choose recklessly. Either way, I'll enjoy watching you squirm."
The crimson text appeared again:
[FIRST CHOICE WILL APPEAR TOMORROW]
[Rest well, Host. Your new life begins at dawn.]
"Tomorrow," Akira repeated, looking at the dagger in his hand. It no longer seemed rusty. The symbols glowed faintly, pulsing with an otherworldly light.
"One more thing, darling," the system said. "The demon you killed? It escaped from Hell. And it won't be the last. Dark forces are trying to corrupt this world, turn it into a playground of lust and chaos. You're caught in the middle now. Fight them, join them, or use them for your own desires. The choice... is always yours."
Akira looked back at the shrine, then toward the lights of town in the distance.
"This is real," he whispered. "This is actually fucking real."
"Very real," the system confirmed. "Now go home. Rest. Tomorrow, we begin your transformation. Tomorrow, Akira Kanzaki becomes something more."
As Akira walked through the empty streets, he couldn't stop the smile spreading across his face. For the first time in his life, he had power. He had a chance, and he was going to make them all pay.
"Actually, darling, why wait until tomorrow? Let's start with something small now. Your first choice."
The crimson text appeared in his vision:
[FIRST CHOICE AVAILABLE]
[OPTION A: Suppress your urges. Reward: +2 CHARM]
[OPTION B: Jerk off to the viral video of your humiliation. Reward: +5 PERV-POINTS]
"What?" Akira stopped in the middle of the street.
