"Hey, you." A sweet voice said, "You're finally awake."
"Ralof?" Darius turned to see the new intruder. As soon as the image of the person was processed in his brain. His mind was blown.
'How can someone be this beautiful?' he thought, mouth gaping.
He had never seen a woman so gorgeous. The most beautiful woman on earth would die of shame beside her.
While he was amazed, the woman walked towards him after putting an axe near the door, with each step her hips wide, perfect for childbirth, swayed hypnotically.
His charmed self stared at her voluptuous figure, her fingers removed the long locks of obsidian hair from her tanned face.
Her caramel eyes perplexed, she offered her dirty hand, "Why are you on the floor? You should rest more, you know."
He reached for her hand, drowning in her sweet gentle voice. The hand was calloused and slightly rough. Her grip was strong, she pulled him to his feet and analyzed his unmoving body, "Are you feeling alright?"
He never believed in love at first sight, but now he thought that it might be true. She waved her palm in front of his face, "Hello? Are you there?"
He snapped back to reality and gave the most charming smile, "Your breasts look heavy, let me hold them for you."
'Really, Darius? Sexual harassment?'
Darius was prepared to be escorted to the police station.
"No, it's fine. I'm used to them." She said with the same gentle tone.
'What?' He thought.
She moved away from there, deeming him fine, "Let me prepare food for you. And don't make sudden moves, you might reopen the wound."
"What wounds?" He asked.
"Eh? The one on your abdomen." She replied, looking at him momentarily in confusion before going back to making some food for him.
He looked down seeing half of his torso wrapped in cloth. He wondered, how did he get this wound? Then he remembered that a plane crashed into his office building while he was overtiming.
But if that was the case shouldn't he have woken up in ICU, not in an unknown house in an unknown land?
While he wondered, the system panel came online with an explanation.
[You died. You transmigrated.]
"..."
[...]
"...And?" He moved his hand in a circle, urging the system to elaborate.
[That's it.]
He rubbed his forehead, a migraine was imminent. Sighing, he asked, "You said transmigrated. Whose body is this?"
[Yours.] System said, surely.
Darius rubbed his face in both his hands. He inhaled deeply and exhaled.
"You are the master of your own emotions." He muttered, before repeating the question more specifically, "What is the name of this body? What is its history or background?"
[The name of this body is also Darius. He was born in the Kingdom of Quetzal, in the village of Eastwind on the 3rd of Ekas, Year 3300 of the Xenos Empire. The parents are Gwen, Mother, and Jake, Father. No relationships. His job was Adventurer. Adventurer rank: F. No special talents. Average IQ and EQ. Looks slightly above average nothing special. Died on the date 29th of Saptas, Year 3324 of Xenos Empire.]
"I see." He stroked his chin, "What is the name of this planet, and is it in the same universe as the Earth?"
[This planet is also called Earth but has an equatorial diameter of 102,048 km. And polar diameter of 101,712 km. The equatorial circumference is 320,600 km. And this planet exists in a parallel universe.] The system replied.
"So, this planet is 8 times larger than Earth. And in a different universe too." Darius' mind started to work fast, he needed more information about this world so he asked, "Can you tell me more about this world?"
[That is all the system knows.]
"What? But you are the system you are supposed to know everything. Don't tell me that I do not have clearance to know more because I am weak?" Darius would seriously punch the system if this turned out to be the reason. How much cliche does this have to be?
[Hey, I am a system, not a miracle. I do not know everything.] The system defended itself.
A paradox.
"Your very existence is a miracle." Darius was confused as fuck, "What kind of system are you? You don't even know the world me and you are in, what is even your purpose?"
[As my name suggests, my purpose is to help build the ultimate harem and as such I only have the ability to help you get stronger and get into women's pants.]
"Wow." He was surprised, "You are not helpful at all."
[Quest alert!]
"Hm?"
'Did I trigger a quest? This is 100% going to be a quest to find more about the world. I know it. So cliche.' He sighed, shaking his head.
However, he would not admit it but he was still kind of excited to see the quest and its rewards.
His inner gamer had finally managed to show itself after all the weirdness.

"...No use crying over spilt milk. At least, I have a system. As useless as it is, finding joy in small things is the key to happy life." Darius' motivated himself.
