León stayed rooted to the spot for several seconds, his mind completely blank.
'Kiss my cousin? Seriously?'
He might be a weird otaku, sure, but incest had never crossed his mind. Not even as a fantasy.
Then, the system screen appeared in front of him.
[Harem System]
[Notice: Don't worry, León. You and Miss Liria do not share blood ties. The mission is completely valid. Good luck… and don't fuck it up.]
"Tsk." He clicked his tongue, annoyed. From the very start he'd distrusted the system, and now this was what they threw at him as a first mission.
'Wait a second…'
'The punishment only comes if I don't complete the missions exactly as instructed. If I go out to the yard but don't kiss her… is there a way around it?'
The answer was immediate.
[Notice: Interpretation error. For a mission to be considered "Completed," ALL objectives must be marked as fulfilled. If you go out to the yard but do not kiss the girl, the mission will remain "Pending" until the time expires. At that point, you will receive the punishment.]
León sighed, defeated. There was no escape.
'Great… and how much time do I have?'
[Notice: This is a low-difficulty mission. Time limit: 5 hours. Good luck.]

'This place is falling apart…' he thought as he walked through the house.
The roof creaked, the walls were full of cracks, and everything smelled of old dampness. It looked like it had been abandoned for years.
"Better get outside before something collapses on me…" he muttered, quickening his pace.
When he opened the door, the sun forced him to cover his eyes. Once he adjusted, he froze, surprised.
Green fields that seemed to stretch on forever, tall trees, flowers in colors he had never seen. The air was clean, fresh. Nothing like his old world.
To the left was Liria, hanging wet clothes alongside an older woman. They were dressed simply, but Liria stood out anyway: a white T-shirt made of thin fabric, now slightly transparent from the water, short pants, and pale skin.
When she saw him, she dropped what she was doing and jogged over.
'God…'
Her breasts bounced with each step, the wet fabric shamelessly outlining her nipples and curves. León found himself staring again.
"León! How long are you going to keep slacking off?" she scolded him. "Aunt wants you to help, that part of the rope is too high for us."
He barely heard her.
'Since when am I this tall…? I always used to look up before.'
Liria grabbed his arm and dragged him along without much care.
"Come on, move your ass."
That's when he got a better look at Aunt Alessia. An older woman, weathered by work, but with a warm expression.
"Oh? León, dear, could you help us for a bit?" she asked kindly.
He was still distracted. Liria snapped him out of it with a light punch to the stomach.
"Huh? Ah… yeah, yeah. I'll help."
He reached into the bucket without looking… and pulled out a pair of white lace panties, still damp.
'Huh?'
"You're a pervert, cousin." Liria spoke dramatically. "Even if we're not blood-related, doing that in front of Aunt is too much."
Alessia just laughed.
"I'll leave the work to you two. I'm going to prepare the food."
"That's not what I wa—"
"Yeah, yeah, sure… I believe you." Liria feigned indignation. "Out of all the clothes, you just had to grab my underwear."
León clenched his teeth. Then he smirked.
"And why would I grab your clean underwear… when I can take the one you're wearing?"
It was a joke. But Liria froze.
First, she blushed. Then, a strange smile crossed her face.
"You're acting weird today…" she said, stepping closer. "Very weird."
"Huh? What do you mean?" León tensed up.
"You never talked back to me like that. Not even when I teased you."
She grabbed him by the collar and pulled him down until their lips were just centimeters apart. Her breath was warm, sweet.
León's heart was pounding hard.
Then Liria laughed and let him go.
"Must've been my imagination… what a disappointment."
She walked toward the back of the house, swaying her hips.
León stayed still. The system still hadn't marked the mission as completed.
'Shit…'
He followed her.
As he walked, he took in the place: barely about ten old houses. A small, forgotten village.
He found her alone.
"Oh… what are you doing here?" she said sarcastically. "If you want, you can go to your room and masturbate in peace."
That's when he understood everything. That's how she treated the old León: like a pathetic virgin.
'Tsk…'
He stepped in close, suddenly.
Liria smiled, mocking.
"What's wrong? Did you get mad? Don't be such a vir—"
She didn't finish.
León grabbed her by the shoulders and pulled her against his chest.
Her eyes went wide, her face red, nervous.
"W-wait… I was just joking…"
"Shut up." His voice was firm. "I've put up with enough."
He leaned in.
"Wai—!"
He kissed her.
Hard. Deep. Without asking permission.
Liria was startled, but she didn't pull away. Her lips parted and she responded, timid at first, then with more eagerness. Tongues. Saliva. Heat.
When they pulled apart, both were breathing heavily.
[Harem System]
[Mission: Completed.]
[Objective: Completed.]
[Notice: Congratulations, León. Enjoy the rest of the day. Tomorrow there will be a new mission.]
Liria touched her lips, still red.
"León… what the hell was that?"
He just smiled.
