"I am absolutely going to lose my virginity in this world!"
After months of wandering lost in the forest, Noah finally caught a glimpse of the village entrance. Before him lay a stone bridge crossing a small river, leading to massive city walls that encircled the town. Suddenly, memories of the past—memories Noah had suppressed just to survive—came flooding back... The gnawing hunger that burned his stomach, the skin covered in scabs and scars, and the torture that had, at times, made him forget even his own name.
I am the Hero who once defeated the Demon King, Noah reminded himself.
Images of Aurelia and Sarah surfaced in his mind... God, how much I loved you two... Whether he had actually defeated the Demon King or saved the world didn't matter anymore. The only thing he desired right now was to release his seed into Aurelia.
Now, in this world, Noah was determined to be a new man. He would be a man who lived by his own creed. Noah tried to smirk, but his lips were so parched and sealed shut that the expression twisted into something grotesque.
"This is... isn't this the Adventurer's Town of Beginnings?!" The young man tried to shout desperately, only to choke as if his throat was packed with sand.
Noah expected a paradise of beauties and bountiful bosoms awaiting him.
Upon entering the city, Noah strode quickly with long steps. His target: the nearest inn. He had some cash on him, but the worst part of this situation was the damn new system that had been stuck to him since he arrived in this world.
> [SYSTEM: HEAVEN'S TOUCH]
> User: Noah Wolfhearts Lvl. 10
> Class: Swordsman
At first, Noah couldn't believe his eyes when all his powers suddenly vanished. When he tried to read the details, the new system displayed a description that was incredibly vague.
> [All of the User's powers and stats will gradually recover as you bring pleasure to women.]
Noah couldn't believe this was the gift God had bestowed upon him. It was just an empty explanation. He had no magical powers like before, so what did he have to show off to make women fall in love with him?
The only conclusion he could reach was that God had granted him the shittiest blessing possible.
Right now, Noah didn't care about anything else. He hurried to find a hotel or a restaurant. But strangely, no matter where he walked in this familiar place, only four years had passed, yet the Town of Beginnings had changed beyond recognition.
Frustration mixed with the scorching heat made Noah lose his patience. At that moment, he heard a sound coming from a desolate alley. Noah quickly followed the noise until he emerged onto a narrow street in a back alley.
"What do you think you're doing, huh? You think you can pull this crap in a place like this and no one will see?"
A woman's voice shouted loudly. She was surrounded by three men, each wearing cured leather armor and gripping knives. The tallest one was completely bald.
Instincts screaming that something was wrong kicked in immediately. Noah reached for the hilt of his sword... but his trusty Dragon Fang was gone. Now, only the dented iron sword of a rookie adventurer remained.
"Shut your trap. Don't think just because you're a woman, I won't dare to hurt you," the bald man declared.
"Doing this is against the law. Or do I need to jog your memory?" the woman retorted defiantly. Noah still couldn't see her face as the men blocked his view.
"You dare trick us, you little... Hand the stuff over quickly, or this won't end well," the bald man threatened.
"I'm not afraid of trash like you. Come on then!"
Three against one. The woman stood no chance! Noah decided to draw his sword, raising it to the sky and roaring. The blade tip glinted with silver light.
"That's enough!"
Noah bellowed. The group turned to look at him in unison. Strangely, the men didn't look very shocked. They stood still, then started laughing and pointing at him. Noah felt a twinge of unease. He had never seen any demon he fought stand there looking so amused.
Are they stupid? Noah tried to rationalize as he scanned the situation.
One of the men shouted, deadly serious, "Hey! What the hell is that thing!"
Noah seized the moment to dash in one swift motion. He targeted the biggest guy first. The pommel of his sword smashed into the man's face with full force, sending him crashing down immediately.
"Stop!" The young man thought he heard a woman's faint voice, but he ignored it.
Once the sword swung, his muscle memory began to flow back. I am the Hero! Noah reaffirmed to himself.
He slashed at the other two who were panicking until they staggered. After gifting them a nice view of the afternoon sky...
Noah brushed his hair back like a victor. He didn't even turn back to look at his enemies. This was a golden opportunity! He had shown off his coolness in front of a damsel in distress. Nothing could be more perfect.
Finally, the woman Noah saved revealed herself... A terrifying face?
She stood before him with a grimace. It was a beautiful, mature face. Rose-red hair, beautiful blue eyes shining with rage. A sharp screech of metal rang out as she drew her sword. Noah just noticed she was wearing knight's armor over a blue miniskirt.
Noah processed the data immediately... This woman looks like a married MILF type.
That thought strangely excited him. He decided to put on his deep, cool Hero voice.
"You're safe now..."
He tried not to look at the smooth white navel and plump hips that were heating up his blood.
But suddenly, the scene cut to black. The world spun wildly. The last thing Noah remembered was the woman swinging her iron sword at him once with a look of utter disgust.
WHAM!
His head slammed into the wall violently. Part of his body smashed through into a villager's house. His consciousness began to fade, trailing behind the shouts that followed him.
"Hey! Marcus! Hang in there! You're not gonna die from this, right?!"
In the final second before blacking out, Noah realized the truth... The big thug in leather armor was named Marcus... and he had definitely just beaten up someone he shouldn't have.
