A boy sat in his room, staring at the screen of his computer.
"The test will begin in 10 seconds. Be prepared."
He reached for the bottle of water on his table with trembling hands and took a sip, hoping to calm his nerves. The dim glow of the computer was the only source of light in the dark room, making the atmosphere tense.
9... 8... 7...
The seconds seemed to pass like hours. His grip tightened around his chair, and his breath became ragged. Sweat formed on his forehead, making its way down his face as if each second were suffocating him.
5... 4... 3...
He swallowed hard, his throat dry despite the water he had just drunk. His heartbeat pounded in his ears, and his fingers trembled over the keyboard.
Was he truly ready for what was coming? There was no turning back now.
2... 1...
The screen flickered, and everything around him seemed to blur as his eyes locked onto the glowing text.
The screen flashed again, and an image of a woman appeared. "Sia Kahlifa!" he shouted, his fingers moving swiftly over the keyboard.
Another image replaced the first. "Eva Sylphie!" he called out, his voice more determined now.
The screen kept changing, flashing faces rapidly. "Sary Tachibana... Agina... Lexi Luna... Natasha Nice!" He continued to call out the names, his heartbeat quickening with each one.
The air around him felt heavy.
Finally, after five agonizing minutes, the last image popped up. His eyes widened, and his voice wavered as he uttered the final name:
"Wanye East."
For a moment, there was silence. Then, the screen changed again, displaying huge letters that read:
"CONGRATULATIONS! YOU ARE THE FIRST PERSON TO WIN THE COOMER'S TEST."
His breathing stopped for a moment as he read the message before him. The words on the screen continued to shift, forming a new message.
"YOU ARE HAILED AS THE COOMER'S KING. AS A RESULT, YOU WIN THE CHANCE TO PLAY AS A CHARACTER IN THE POPULAR NOVEL 'STEAL THE GIRLS.'"
His hands trembled as he read the words. He looked up at the ceiling, his eyes teary.
"Finally... the title of Coomer's Lord. All these years of masturbation have paid off."
He wiped his eyes and chuckled before looking down. 'Mom, are you proud? Your son has become a full-fledged coomer.'
He let out a laugh, shaking his head. "I need to bust one out to celebrate this moment."
Just then, the space in front of his desk tore open, and a swirling void that seemed to be made of darkness itself cracked open. Menacing hands emerged from the void, twisting and merging before lunging at him.
"What the hell?" he shouted, his heart pounding in his chest as his palms grew sweaty, knees weak, and arms grew heavy.
In a moment of panic, he pushed himself back, his chair falling behind with a loud thud. He wasn't prepared for anything like this.
His mind raced, trying to comprehend what was happening.
Was this part of the test? Or had he just fucked up the universe somehow?
The hands continued to reach for him, the darkness swirling around them, almost like a living thing.
"No way… no fucking way…!"
Panic overwhelmed him. He wanted to run, but his feet felt glued to the floor.
His hands trembled, reaching for the mouse. He clicked desperately, but the screen was frozen. Nothing was responding.
"Am I dreaming? Am I just tripping?" He muttered, eyes darting around the room as though expecting some explanation.
The room around him felt colder with every passing second. He reached for his water bottle again, but his hands were shaking too much to hold it properly. It slipped from his fingers and rolled across the floor, but he didn't even flinch.
The void continued to expand, swallowing more of the room. He could feel the pull, like a vacuum wanting to eat him whole.
"What the hell do you want with me?" he shouted.
The hands in the void paused, as if considering his question, before continuing their approach.
"No way... I'm not going down like this."
He clenched his fists, mustering every bit of courage left in him. "Come on, you bastard! What the hell do you want?!"
The hands froze just inches from him, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Hahh... that was sc... But before he could finish the thought, the air around him seemed to warp. The frozen hands suddenly shot forward, wrapping around him in a cocoon.
"What—?" His heart almost stopped beating as the fingers tightened around him, pulling him toward the void.
