In a dimly lit room, an unconscious young man, about 18 years old, lay on the floor, his body streaked with blood.

The room was spacious and had an ancient, regal charm. The furniture looked expensive, crafted from the finest materials, giving the space an air of elegance. It was fully equipped with everything one might need—a large bed, a bookcase tucked into a corner, and more.

Suddenly, his fingers twitched slightly, a sign of returning consciousness.

"Ahhh!" he groaned, quickly grabbing his head as a wave of pain struck him.

"Holy crap!"

Liam's eyes snapped open as a sharp ache shot through his body. Gritting his teeth, he struggled to sit up, his movements slow and unsteady.

His eyelids felt heavy, but he forced them open, letting his gaze wander around the dimly lit room. As he took in his surroundings, a chill ran down his spine.

The floor beneath him was smeared with blood and littered with scattered food. He nearly jumped in fright when he noticed the blood on his own body.

"What happened to me? Am I injured?" he murmured, his voice shaky.

"Where am I? This place doesn't look familiar... Was I kidnapped?" he asked himself, confusion and fear clouding his mind.

The room felt strange, and the pain in his body made it even harder to think clearly.

"This room?" His brow furrowed in confusion. "It looks familiar... but how?"

He managed to stand, slowly getting to his feet and taking in the view of the room.

His mind was blurry, but he felt like he had seen this place before, even lived here—yet how was that possible? He had never been here in his life.

The last thing he remembered was completing a quest in the Xianxia Eroge game, one that involved sexually overpowering the game's ultimate bosses—a succubus cultivator and the queen of the Eastern Heavenly Province.

A big smile had spread across his face when he succeeded in completing the quest, something he'd been trying to do for a long time.

He had been scrolling through congratulatory comments on the game server when he came across one that piqued his interest.

It was from a level 0 player named Mysterious_shadow.

He recalled the text clearly:

—I'm sure you won't survive in the game world, especially when facing one of the powerful cultivators. Don't brag about using gamepads and inbuilt romantic text for sex.—

Liam remembered the amused smirk he had when he first read that message. It seemed like a joke, something funny to laugh off.

Before he could even type a response, another message from the same player appeared:

—Wanna try it out and see? Then click on the link below.—

—⟨Https://xxxxxxxx⟩—

Liam burst out laughing, nearly tipping off his chair. "What kind of joke is this?" "This is probably just some fan messing around with me."

With a shrug, he reached for the keyboard, ready to type a snarky reply—but in his rush, he accidentally clicked the link.

The page that loaded was blank, save for a single line of text:

—Let's see how long you last.—

…

'Wait, I remember now... A gateway appeared in my room and sucked me in. That's how I ended up here. That was the last thing I remember.'

Liam clenched his teeth as a surge of pain shot through his mind, uninvited and overwhelming.

Suddenly, a terrible headache hit, causing him to clutch his head and drop to his knees.

"Ahhh! W-What's happening to me?" he gasped, gritting his teeth, struggling to endure the searing pain.

In that moment, memories—strange and unfamiliar, yet oddly familiar—flooded his mind. They weren't his own, but they felt as if he had lived them, as if he were the one in those memories.

As the memories surged, one thought broke through: Mysterious_shadow's message.

Had he really been pulled into the world of the Xianxia Eroge game? Was this the consequence of his overconfident about his gaming skills?

Five minutes later, the headache subsided.

He thought while carefully looking at his surroundings:

'Am I really in a virtual world? Is this the Xianxia Eroge world? Who the hell is Mysterious_shadow? Is he some kind of God? Or maybe the creator of Xianxia Eroge? Or worse, could he be a damn reaper, dragging souls into another world?'

Liam's mind raced with anger and confusion as he tried to make sense of it all.

It was an Eroge game! A game created for humans to satisfy their lust by controlling several inbuilt game characters, guiding them through different circumstances and quests for love and sex!

He held his forehead and swept his eyes across the room. At that moment, he was aware of who he was and where he was, thanks to the memories.

Now, he had two sets of memories: one from his original life, and the other from the body he had transmigrated into.

A lot of questions filled his head as he looked around the room.

"Mo Shen?" he muttered the name that appeared in his memory.

Mo Shen was the name of the person whose body he now inhabited.

He struggled to raise himself from the ground and walked toward a mirror he spotted.

Behold, his reflection: a young, handsome man with short white hair, crystal blue eyes, a chiselled face, and a youthful charm that outshone any model on Earth.

He reached a hand to his face while staring at the reflection.

"There were so many white-haired male characters in Xianxia Eroge. I know most of them, but why the hell is this face unfamiliar? I can't move with a character I don't know the backstory of. Damn, what mess have I gotten myself into? Am I really in Xianxia Eroge or somewhere else?"

Just then, to his surprise, a screen appeared before his eyes.

Ding!

—Erotic System is ready to bind with host—

—Initiate bind: Yes/No—

For two minutes, he stared at the faint blue screen in front of him. But in the end, he chose ..Yes...

[Erotic system merging with host...]

[Erotic system bound successfully]

[Welcome, host]

[I'm the Erotic system, assigned by my creator to assist you on your journey in this world]

[I'll be here to measure your growth, and I am also a one-stop shop system for all your needs]

Liam was completely stunned by what he was hearing and reading at the same time. An Erotic system? Assigned to assist him in his journey in this world?

"Tell me about this world and what you can do," Liam asked, already had an idea in his head, but needing confirmation.

The Erotic system continued:

[Host, I will now provide you with a brief overview of this world, as you seem confused. You are currently in the world of Xianxia Eroge, a game created by my creator for humans to experience a world of hot-blooded cultivation and eroticism. In this world, individuals can cultivate their inner energy to become powerful cultivators, and engage in erotic encounters with other cultivators.]

[Host, as the Erotic system, I will assist you in your cultivation and help you unlock your full potential. I will also provide you with the necessary knowledge to succeed in this world.]

Liam nodded, still trying to process everything he was hearing.

[However, host, I must warn you beforehand that this world can be dangerous. There are powerful cultivators and demonic beasts that roam the land. You must be careful and always be on guard. You will need strength to protect your harem if you ever succeed in building one.]

He already knew about the game Xianxia Eroge. In fact, he was an expert in it, so he didn't pay much attention to the details given by the system. What mattered was that he had confirmed he was in the game world.

Liam forced himself to calm down, his mind racing. This situation was more than he could grasp.

'WTF!' His thoughts were filled with worries for his safety and survival. He needed to figure out his next move.

[You transmigrated as a minor villain in the game.] the system continued.

"This is becoming too complicated."

[Yes, you were programmed as a minor villain by my creator. Many righteous cultivators will come to battle you in the future.]

[Anyway, I want the host to know that my job is to help you with your cultivation and stats measurement.]

Liam stared into the air, then sighed, beginning to sort out his memories.

He closed his eyes, and the information about Mo Shen flashed through his head.

Now he understand, he got the system after he transmigrated into the body.

"Now, my soul is currently in possession of this dude's body... too bad he died," he said calmly to himself. "I need to clean up this mess quickly before anyone finds out."

With that, he began cleaning the ground, making sure everything was intact and wouldn't raise any suspicions.

He quickly took a bath.

Soon, he was done, putting everything in place.

Just then, the door flung open, and his eyes moved to the door. What he saw made him scream internally.....
