'T-This is me…?' Jack mumbled to himself as he looked at his naked self in the mirror.
He was now in his stuffy bathroom, where his shower filled its entirety.
Jack's brown eyes flickered in astonishment as a wide grin bloomed on his face.
He has changed; his face, which used to be coarse and filled with blisters, has now turned fair and smooth like a baby's.
His skinny body had turned taller and was packed with muscles, while his little brother, well…
"I went from a worm to a dragon!" Jack exclaimed out loud with a wide grin as he glanced at the large snake between his legs.
But still, his heart couldn't believe it! He still had a lingering fear that all of this was a dream.
But when he placed his hand over his chest, his fears faded away.
BADUMP BADUMP
He could feel his heart thumping against his chest, but he shook his head as he tried to calm himself down as he turned his gaze to the blue screen floating in front of him.
[Welcome host, to the Lustful Harem System!]
The screen hadn't changed since then, and every time Jack looked at it, his heartbeat quickened.
But he patted himself on the chest as he repeatedly mumbled, 'Calm down, calm down.'
And it took a while for him to do so before he returned his attention to the screen.
His eyes flickered while he clenched his fists and asked, "System, tell me about yourself!"
[Ding!]
[Host, the system is called the Lustful Harem System!]
[The system helps the host seduce women and add them to your harem while rewarding the host with money whenever the host is successful!]
Jack's eyes went wide as he read the text, "Haha," and his grin widened as a small laugh escaped his lips.
'Yes! This is it!! I can finally change my life around!!!' Jack exclaimed inwardly as he clenched his fist.
His mind raced as he imagined himself living in a large mansion with women filled to its brim!
But before his thoughts could spiral further, the screen changed.
[Host, the reward for the women depends on various factors such as the social hierarchy, the taboo of the relationship, etc!]
[The basic reward is $100,000 for the first time and $50,000 from then on!]
Jack blinked while his mind spun as he looked at the numbers in disbelief, 'A-A hundred grand!'
Jack had never seen that much money in his life. He took a step back while his breath turned shallow.
"This is… amazing!" Jack exclaimed as he tried to control his breath.
But then his gaze turned resolute as he clenched his jaw in determination, "Alright, let's do it!"
Resoluting himself, Jack walked out of the bathroom, strode towards the bed, and sat on it.
His mind raced as he thought of the first target that he wanted to conquer, 'I need to choose carefully,' he mumbled inwardly.
'Although the system said that the basic reward is 50,000, it is better to aim for someone who is at a higher level on the social hierarchy!'
His eyes darted around as he thought of who could fit the bill, 'Doc—'
VIBRATE
But just as he was thinking about the professions that are a step above basic, his phone buzzed, causing him to turn towards the phone on the bed.
Jack frowned at this as he didn't expect any people to message him. The only people who talk to him are his mother and his boss at the part-time job.
'Speaking of, I need to tell them I am quitting,' Jack muttered to himself as he picked up the phone.
He unlocked it and looked at the notifications only to see that they were from a news app.
Jack's frown deepened as he pressed on the notification while wondering why he had got a notification when he had put all of them on silent.
But Jack's eyes widened when he read the content of the news article.
"BREAKING NEWS: POPULAR ACTRESS SARAH FIRED HER ASSISTANT OVER ALLEGATIONS THAT SHE HAD AN AFFAIR WITH THE ACTRESS'S HUSBAND!!"
Jack went on to read the whole news article; it stated that Darah, a popular movie actress who was about to retire, had fired her young personal assistant over allegations of her husband having an affair with her.
The article stated that Sarah had filed for a divorce an hour after firing her assistant. And it also said that her company is now hiring a new assistant for her since the actress is in deep need of a new assistant due to her upcoming movies.
Jack's heartbeat quickened as he read the article; he has always had a huge crush on Sarah since childhood and fantasised about her many times.
He put the phone away as he gazed into the air, 'What if ... I become her assistant?'
The more Jack thought about it, the more appealing it became to him. Sarah is a huge celebrity and a household name; seducing her would give him a huge reward!
'Not only that, but her connections in the movie industry…' Jack mumbled inwardly.
"Alright, it's decided!" he muttered out loud, determined, "She's my first target!"
But then,
[Host, You have yet to open your gift pack! Do you wish to open it?]
[Yes] / [No]
