Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: Penalty

Ring* Ring*

"...Heeeey, mom—"

"Zenkichi!! Where are you?!" A piercing voice rang through the phone, almost causing Zenkichi's eardrum to nearly explode.

"Do you know how much you've worried me?! I thought you got kidnapped. Wait, are you kidnapped? That's a dumb question. Medaka-chan's security squad would've informed me about it."

'A what?!' Zenkichi's eyes as he pulled the device away from his ear, wincing at the volume.

'...What do I say to her?' After getting out of Itami and Youka's house, Zenkichi had quickly called his mom so she wouldn't worry.

But now that he was talking to her, what exactly was he going to say to her? Oh mom, sorry I wasn't home and missing school. I was out banging two chicks for the entire night and the next morning.

Like hell was he going to say that to her!

Zenkichi thought about it for a while amidst his mother's nagging and decided to tell a mix of the truth and lie.

"Relax, Mom," he muttered, bringing it cautiously back. "I was out at a friend's house to.... play video games with."

"Eh? You were at a friend's to play a game? Why didn't you tell me?! I wouldn't be so worried!"

Zenkichi nervously chuckled. "I'm sorry, mom. Things got a bit too heated with the games we played, I forgot to tell you. We actually did an all nighter, which is why I'm not at school right now."

His mom let out an exasperated sigh. "An all-nighter? Zenkichi, you understand the effects of staying up all night while playing games, right?"

"As the son of the greatest doctor of the entire city, of course I know that sleep deprivation messes with your cognitive functions, reaction time, and overall health." Zenkichi forced a chuckle, his eyes looking a bit blank.

Back when he was a child, Zenkichi had aspirations to become a renowned and skilled medical professional as his mom who took care of him all his life after his father ran away from them—all because he had an inferior complexity towards his wife.

So he studied hard for a few years, but as he grew old and experienced more of the world, reality hit him hard.

It wasn't just about being smart or dedicated.

It's simply because priorities changed. He fell in love.

"Don't worry, Mom. I'll catch up on rest and schoolwork. I just... got carried away."

Hitomi sighed deeply. "Well, as long as you understand. Since it's too late to go to school, go home. Take a nap; a healthy mind makes a healthy body. I'll be home early today so expect takeout."

"Oh! Would it be barbeque, mom? Chicken, please?"

Hitomi chuckled softly on the other end. "We'll see. See you later, Zenkichi!"

"Hm. See you later, mom."

As the call ended, Zenkichi let out a long breath, his shoulders relaxing. He was in a small park sitting in a bench under a wide shade.

He glanced up at the sky, wondering what the hell happened to his personality when he had sex with Itami and Youka.

Zenkichi is someone akin to an observer or a side character all his life; anyone would be when they're with Medaka Kurokami—the greatest genius the world has ever seen.

He was level-headed, practical, and a bit cynical, he's always been the type to go with the flow and act as the voice of reason among chaotic personalities.

Something he had to do when being Medaka's childhood friend.

Although, he kinda went through a phase in middle school... Which he likes to be kept a secret until the day he dies!

Anyways, Zenkichi was someone you'd typically imagine as someone who does vanilla sex. But contrary to his appearance, he was aggressive and dominant during sex with Itami and Youka—completely unlike someone who just lost their V-card.

Zenkichi was conscious of his abrupt change of personality and wondered if the system had something to do with it.

'Hey system. My personality....I felt like it changed. Does it have something to do with you?'

[Well it's to be expected. I am the Hentai System after all, and you're the user.]

'What do you mean?'

[User, as a healthy young japanese boy, you have seen hentai before—correct?]

'Well yes.' Zenkichi answered without any hesitation. He was only talking to his system and it wasn't like it was a big embarrassing secret.

Anyone who denies watching porn at a teenage age is either a liar, a christian, or a very sheltered child. To which he was none of.

After he first had his first wet dream, his mom was the one who gave him the talk and a couple of sex videos—drilling him the importance of protection and the risks of becoming a teen parent.

[Then by your understanding of hentais, what do you think of the main protagonists?]

'What I think about hentai protagonists...' Zenkichi pondered about it for a moment and came to a realization.

'They're mostly assholes!'

[Correct. Kind, passive and vanilla orientated hentai protagonists have been a rare breed ever since the 90s and early 2000s. From the last decade to the present, the "taking revenge and hypnotizing genre" has dominated the industry, making aggressive, dominant, and borderline villainous protagonists the norm.]

Zenkichi couldn't help but cringe. 'Those guys? Really?' He watched hentais and mostly focused on the lewd parts, rarely would he pay attention to the plots.

But on rare occasions, he would listen to it and always disliked the scums for protagonists. He somewhat understands them for having a crashout, after a tragic background, but it will never justify manipulations and inexplicable acts they committed towards women and innocent bystanders.

'So because I have you...'

[You're half correct. I'm merely a medium. The more you use me, the more you become a hentai protagonist, and according to the latest trend about them—that means you become more dominant, assertive, and, in some cases, morally ambiguous.]

[But rest assured, user, your core values and morals remain intact. My influence mainly amplifies your latent desires and instincts rather than completely overriding your personality.]

Zenkichi sighed deeply. 'At least I'm not going to turn into some psycho creep.'

He couldn't stand those hentai protagonists who crossed every line imaginable. Very rarely would they get karma, but when they do...

Well, two words: School Days.

'So, as long as I don't use you...'

[But can you?]

Zenkichi went quiet for a moment, the images of the naked bodies of Itami, Youka, and Medaka flashed across his mind.

'Damn you teenage hormones!'

[I rest my case. You're lucky. Unlike other systems, I didn't issue a mission about you fucking your mom.]

'....Yet you issued one about Shiranui.'

[Hey, she's the same age as you. What? Got something against little people?]

'Hey! You know that's not it!'

[Hmm. Speaking about missions...]

[Daily Quest: Become a Gigachad! Achieve the perfect male physique!]

[Objective: 100 Pushups, 100 Sit Ups, 100 Squats and a 10KM Run everyday.]

[Reward: You become muscular, handsome and gain 10HP(altered)]

[Failure: An hour of Steven He's "Failure" scolding you in your mind(Invalid)]

[Mission Failed!]

[Note by the Higher-Up: The penalty isn't fit for the theme of "Hentai", thus it would be altered!]

[New Penalty: Gain the status curse effect of "Raging Weiner" for the next two hours.]

[Status Effect: Raging Weiner - It causes the user's penis to become rock-hard until the effect ends. No matter if the user gets exhausted and only shoots blanks, his cock will remain standing strong. Btw, it would also slowly affect your mind and causes you to be horny to the point of fucking anything that moves.]

"....What?!"

Zenkichi's eyes widened. He looked down to see his pants pitching a tent. His breathing turned rugged, feeling his blood rushing towards his second head almost in an instant.

He could feel his blood boiling, his instincts screaming at him to give in!

'You call this slowly?!' Zenkichi gritted his teeth. He wasn't some weak minded pussy!

He was Zenkichi Hitoyoshi! Former leader of the Black Devils that had fought gangs and yakuzas in his middle school!

He was not going to let his dick control him!

Taking a deep breath, he began to think of a way to deal with this. Could he go find a "massage parlor" to help him?

'Ah fuck. Do I even have enough money?!' His face darkened as he checked his wallet.

'What the fuck am I supposed to do?'

Just as he was panicking and on the verge of losing his sanity, a metal bat appeared right before his eyes and was about to land on his "junior".

"Aaah! W-What the fuck?!"

Luckily, his reaction time and speed made it possible for him to slide out of the bench and land his ass on the ground.

He was about to stand up, when he realized that it was a bit uncomfortable with a raging boner, and that the metal bat appeared right before his eyes once more.

Fortunately, it went still.

Eyeing the metal bat, Zenkichi looked up towards the assailant with narrowed eyes.

'Tits.' Was what he first noticed of the woman with long snow-white hair, with glasses and smoking a cigarette.

She looked fairly youthful and could easily pass as someone's older sister or a young mother. Moreover, she wore thick yet revealing clothes—specifically her cardigan that reveals a generous amount of her cleavage.

"Good reflexes."

The white haired woman took a deep puff and exhaled. Her hazel eyes looked nonchalant yet also calculating.

"Boy.... you've been cursed. And it's a particularly nasty and annoying one at that."

AN: Who's that heroine..?!👀
