He didn't know how much time had passed in that situation. After being blinded by that light, León felt as if he were falling endlessly through a massive spiral.
"WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING!?" he shouted into the void, but there was no response. He couldn't even open his eyes without that light burning him from the inside.
He stayed like that, falling, maybe for about ten minutes, until suddenly he opened his eyes when he felt his body crash into something solid.
"But what the fu—"
Thas!
A dull thud echoed a second later. León had smashed his head straight into the lower part of a bed above him.
'OWWW! Fucking hell!' He brought both hands to his head, which was throbbing with sharp pain, then let himself fall back again as he rolled a bit on the mattress.
"León?... Are you okay?"
A young woman who was on the top bunk leaned down to look at him. Her face showed concern as she observed a clearly hurt León.
'?... Huh?' Ignoring the pain for a moment, he looked at her in surprise, as if she had appeared out of nowhere.
"Who ar—"
"Liria! Come here for a moment."
Another woman's voice was heard from outside the room, calling out to the young woman.
Before León could process what was happening, he saw the girl climb down from the top bunk with incredible ease, making a small jump. That movement made her breasts—large and firm—bounce heavily.
And if that wasn't enough, León was completely mesmerized by the sight of her big, round ass moving. To make things worse, the shorts she was wearing were so short they wedged between her cheeks, shamelessly outlining every tight curve.
"What?"
He snapped out of it just as Liria slammed the door shut behind her. León glanced to his left and then he saw it.
A screen appeared out of nowhere.
Thas!
"FUCKING HELL!"
Once again, he had hit his head against the bed.
Frowning, he looked at the screen, which now displayed a new message:
[Harem System]
[Note: The user is currently in a state of confusion and almost fucked up his entry into the world of: X-XX.]
[Notice: As punishment to try to avoid future problems, your statistics will be reducedby 30% for a period of two days.]
[Statistics:
Strength: 9.8 (Reduced by 30%)
Endurance: 10.5 (Reduced by 30%)
Dexterity: 8.4 (Reduced by 30%)
Charisma: 9.1 (Reduced by 30%)
Intelligence: 7.7 (Reduced by 30%)
Luck: 7 (Reduced by 30%)]
[Current Skills: None.]
[Current Objective: Unknown.]
'Huh?' He adjusted himself more comfortably on the bed and crossed his legs. "What do you mean my stats are reduced for two days? How the fuck was I supposed to know I'd appear in this place!?"
He got annoyed seeing that he'd been nerfed just for complaining after the hit, but his attention still went straight to two specific categories: [Current Skills] and [Current Objective].
'That means that… will I have powers?' The doubt mixed with an excitement that was hard to hide.
He never thought he could reincarnate in another world, much less with a system, something he had only read about in novels.
[Harem System]
[Notice: The user has doubts about the world.]
[Response: Calm down, Harem System user. As time passes, you will be able to see with your own eyes what you are capable of doing in this world.]
León rested a hand on his chin, thoughtful. That system seemed way too convenient.
"So the chances of magic existing here are high… Hmm, but whe—"
He didn't finish the sentence. A small sound, like a bell, rang directly inside his head.
[Harem System]
[Notice: The user has even more doubts about the world.]
[Response: You are in the world of: X-XX, specifically in the city of: Liboa, in a small town on the outskirts of the city.]
"So Liboa…" he murmured. "But for what reason did I reincarnate in this world?"
[Response: The conditions required to know the reason you were brought to X-XX are incomplete… Once you manage to complete them, you will be able to access all the information you desire.]
'Hmm… interesting.'
Without giving the place too much importance, he got more comfortable on the bed, resting his head on both arms while looking at the ceiling, confirming that the system screen followed him.
"So a Harem System… Does that mean I'll have some kind of harem?"
Deep inside him, a small hope was born. He perfectly remembered the feeling of having sex with two women at the same time. He couldn't help but wonder what that experience would be like with more.
[Response: That is correct, user… Correcting… That is correct, León. The Harem System will grant you missions that will serve to improve your statistics. All of them must be completed YES or YES.
You will receive buffs as rewards. Some missions will be simple, such as:
"Explore your home's yard."
And others will be ultra difficult, such as:
"Defeat the Demon Queen."
Any act of rebellion against the system or its tasks will be penalized…]
'I understand… if I do exactly what you ask, I'll be rewarded…'
He grew thoughtful at the last part.
Basically, he was a slave to the system. 'But in exchange I'd receive improvements and… women.
What does the system gain exactly from all this?'
He didn't fully trust it. In his previous life, many people spoke nicely, but in the end turned out to be scammers or something worse.
[Harem System]
[Notice: Distrust from León toward the System has been detected.]
[Response: The System is designed exclusively for the benefit of the user. It will not receive any "reward," "objective," or personal benefit from the user upon task completion. Remain calm.]
"Hmm?... Well, alright, I guess."
León didn't know how to react. That system had brought him to this world, so it could be telling the truth… or not. Time would tell.
This time he stood up carefully and looked toward a small open window.
From the strong light coming in, he deduced that whatever was outside would be beautiful.
And he wasn't wrong.
A vast green field stretched out before him, full of plants, trees, and life. In his world, such views were rare due to pollution.
"So this is my new life."
He said it firmly, as if he were finally accepting his situation.
[Harem System]
[Update: 10%... 45%... 80%... 99%]
[Notice: Updates completed… Initiating report.]
[First Mission: León! Welcome to Liboa! As your first mission, you are assigned the task: Go out and explore the surroundings.]
León read calmly.
'An eas—'
[Objective: Kiss your cousin Liria.
Reward: None. (Due to today's punishment)
Penalty for not completing the task: 5 additional hours of nerfing to your statistics.]
He froze completely, wearing a poker face. To be sure, he rubbed his eyes several times.
But no.
The text was still there.
'What do you mean kiss my cousin?'
