Chapter 8: "The System From Hell"
A blue screen appeared before my eyes.
I read the contents.
And the first thought that came to my mind?
I'm fucked.

> [Congratulations, Host!]
Host has awakened a NTR syst— oh, sorry, SSS-RANK Monster Wife System!]
Host now has the ability to bond with monster girls and marry them!
Host has awakened the ONLY SSS-Rank system in the world!
---
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
An ability to make bonds and marry monster girls?
How the hell does that even work?!
---
> [New Skill Unlocked: Monster Communication]
Skill Description: Allows Host to understand and communicate with S-Rank or higher monsters.]
---
Okay… so I could talk to powerful monsters.
But how was I supposed to marry them?
---
> [System Notification: That is up to Host! You can either make them like you or forcefully take them. The choice is yours.]
---
What the actual fuck?
I sat there, staring at the glowing text, completely dumbfounded.
Was this some kind of joke?
Was this thing seriously telling me I had to seduce or forcefully take monster girls?
What kind of messed-up system was this?!
Before I could even process this insanity, another notification popped up.

I see 'Death.'
Like—WTF?!
"Ethan? What's wrong?"
Emma's voice snapped me back to reality.
I turned to her, hesitating.
"…I awakened a system."
Her eyes widened. Then, before I could react—
She launched herself at me, wrapping her arms around my neck.
"Oh my God! I knew you'd get one! I never doubted you!"
She rained kisses all over my face, giggling with excitement.
Then—she climbed onto my lap.
I felt something stir down below.
Shit.
Emma noticed.
A playful smirk formed on her lips.
"Oh?" She wiggled slightly, pressing against me. "You want another round?"
No, no, no, no.
I shook my head furiously.
She laughed.
I tried to laugh too—tried to act casual.
But then—she asked the real question.
"So? What type of system did you get?"
And just like that, the real battle began.
What the hell was I supposed to tell her?!
