OP Cheat!

Creed slowly peeled his eyes open, his body sinking into the creaky old bed beneath him.

Sunlight filtered through the cracks in his window, casting weak rays across his shabby one room apartment.

The thin mattress beneath him groaned as he shifted, but that wasn't the real problem.

The real problem was his lower body.

His legs felt like noodles, his waist ached like he had run a hundred marathons, and worst of all... his younger brother felt like it had been through a war.

Creed groaned, dragging a hand down his face. "Damn… buddy, I'm sorry," he muttered, casting a pitiful glance downward. "Last night… was not fair to you."

His mind immediately flashed back to the "feeding session."

Lilith. That damn succubus.

He had thought it would be one and done. A little energy transfer, a little intimacy, and that would be it.

He also needed the release and missed the pleasure of sex, so he had not resisted at all.

But no. She didn't just feed—she devoured. Eight. Eight whole rounds!

He had stopped counting after the fifth because, at that point, he was fighting for survival.

And then, when he was utterly drained, hollow, and one step away from transcending reality, she had smiled sweetly, kissed his forehead, and said, "Master, I'll digest the 'food' now."

Then, just like that, she had transformed into a swirling, intricate purple tattoo on his chest and disappeared.

Creed clenched his fists, eyes hollow.

"This… this is the price of greatness."

It was a heavy burden, but a burden he must bear. The road to success was long and crooked, just like his little brother...

But at this point, he really wished she could just eat something else.

With great difficulty, Creed dragged himself out of bed, his muscles sore, his movements sluggish. His stomach grumbled angrily, reminding him that he had another problem.

Food.

He scanned his tiny apartment. The room was barebones—a creaky wooden bed, a tiny desk with exactly one chair, and a rusted cupboard that had long given up on its job of storing anything useful.

His fridge? Empty. His pantry? A joke.

He sighed.

Food in this world was expensive—far more expensive than it had ever been in his previous life.

Ever since the world had plunged into an apocalyptic state, with limited land for farming and dangerous dimensional beasts roaming outside the bastions, only the strong and rich could afford to really eat well.

And him? He was dirt broke.

"This is tragic," he muttered, rubbing his empty stomach. He had been drained continuously over the night, yet he couldn't even eat to replenish all the lost protein!

Just as he was contemplating whether he could somehow survive on air and willpower, something unexpected happened.

A bright, glowing holographic screen suddenly materialized before him, filling his vision.

[ Ding! ]

[ Congratulations! After a successful Primordial Exchange, the host has received 1 Primordial Essence and 1 Free Stat Point! ]

Creed blinked.

"...What?"

Wait.

Wait.

Wait, wait, wait—PRIMORDIAL EXCHANGE?!

His mind processed it for a moment before realization slammed into him like a truck.

This thing was talking about last night?!

A shiver ran down his spine. He had assumed his lazy, unresponsive system was locked behind some mysterious hidden conditions—maybe he needed to reach a certain level, complete a trial, or gain some rare resource to fully activate it.

But no.

No, no, no, no.

The hidden condition was sleeping with his summon.

Creed felt a mix of horror and deep, deep amusement.

"So… you're telling me…" he muttered under his breath, staring at the glowing screen. "That all this time I was thinking my system was lazy—but in reality, it just wanted me to get laid?!"

He had read about weird cheat systems before, but this? This was on another level.

And yet, a part of him couldn't help but feel… excited.

1 Free Stat Point.

Everyone knew what stat points were. Every system had them. Every main character dreamed of them.

The ability to instantly enhance one's strength, speed, endurance, or energy just by assigning points? It was priceless.

Creed grinned.

"Alright, alright, I see you, System. You're weird as hell, but I won't complain if you're useful."

Now the question was—where should he assign his free stat point?

Strength? He could boost his raw power. His thrusts would get deeper and farther as well...

Speed? Agility and reflexes were just as important. His rhythm would see massive improvement...

Constitution? After last night, he seriously considered this one. He didn't want to feel like a skeleton after every 'feeding' session.

Energy? A crucial stat for awakened abilities and casting techniques.

He rubbed his chin. After some thought, he decided to hold onto it for now. No need to rush—he needed to figure out his priorities first.

But then, a second notification popped up.

[ Ding! ]

[ You have received 1 Primordial Essence! ]

Creed squinted. "And what the hell does that do?"

[ Primordial Essence allows the host to enter a state of deep enlightenment instantly. ]

He froze.

His eyes widened.

His breath hitched.

"...Wait, what?"

The power of instant enlightenment!

Creed had studied this new world to the best of his abilities ever since he came here two days ago.

He knew how invaluable enlightenment was.

Normally, to enter a state of enlightenment—a moment where the mind achieved absolute clarity, allowing one to understand techniques and insights at an accelerated pace—required extreme luck, talent, and years of training.

But this…

This was a cheat.

He clenched his fist, his excitement bubbling over.

"With this, I can master techniques at a ridiculous speed!"

His mind raced with possibilities. He could grasp combat techniques faster, gain insights into powerful martial arts, maybe even comprehend multiple intents before anyone else!

A sharp determination flickered in his eyes.

At first, he had been unsure about his future path. But now?

With this cheat?

There was only one choice.

Creed straightened his back, eyes burning with resolve.

"I've made up my mind. From this day forward—"

He clenched his fist.

"I will walk the path of a Weapon Master!"
