Max had never been a good student in school. The troubles from his home haunted him in his studies, and he wasn't able to concentrate on his studies.
He would regularly ditch classes and roam around. His favourite thing as a kid was to sit on top of a tower and read novels.
He was an avid reader of web novels; his favourites were the Xianxia harem novels. Although he liked system-based novels, they weren't his favorite.
But,
BADUMP
Mike's emerald-green eyes trembled as his heart thumped against his chest.
"...What the fuck!?"
A rush of excitement and scepticism filled his heart as he stared at the unblinking screen.
BADUMP
"Am I hallucinating?" he muttered out loud, waving his hand over the screen.
But his eyes widened when he saw his hand pass through the screen as if it were never there.
'This! This is actually happening to me!?' he exclaimed inwardly, his heartbeat quickening.
His eyes travelled to the screen, with the words, "Welcome Host, to the Sex System!" written on it.
Max opened his mouth and said, "System," and right before him, the system's screen flickered once more and the text changed.
[Yes, Host.]
Max's eyes widened and the reply, his chest heaved up as he asked, "Are you real?"
[I'm as real as you are, Host!]
Max was still a little sceptical about the system, and before he could voice it, the system screen flickered once more and the text changed.
[You should check your body for confirmation, Host!]
Max frowned at the system's words; he narrowed his eyes as he lowered his head. His gaze travelled to his own body, "What the…?"
Now, Max wasn't skinny or wimpy. He had a healthy amount of muscle on his six-foot frame. He needed to if he wanted to intimidate people.
"I'm jacked!?" he exclaimed in shock, looking at his body. His black t-shirt stretched against his lean body, clinging to his perfect abs.
His green eyes lit up with excitement as his hands slipped into his pocket. He took out his phone, held by rubber bands and riddled with cracks.
But he ignored them and opened a camera app to see his reflection, and what he saw left him astonished.
"Fuck!" Max exclaimed out loud, looking at his own face. All the scars and marks on his face had disappeared. His skin was smoothed out and the dark circles on his face vanished.
It wasn't as drastic as his body, but the change was still visible on his face.
"Hehe," Max's eyes lit up in excitement, his body trembled with joy as he tightly clenched his fist.
"Fuck, yeah!" he yelled through his teeth, "Finally! Finally, something good has happened in my life!"
He had almost jumped out in joy, but he forced himself not to as he turned to the system screen, "C-Can you tell me more about yourself?"
He stuttered, couldn't contain his excitement, 'Although I have a faint idea of what it is, it's better to clarify it at the beginning!'
[Certainly, Host!]
[The system is called Sex System!]
[The system grants the Host skills to seduce women and reward him whenever he is successful! With the skills being Aphrodite's Touch, Zeus's Rod, Appraisal!]
[The rewards will be money that will be credited to your bank account! And the rewards will be based on various factors!]
[The more taboo your relationship, the circumstances of the women you have seduced, and the social standing of the women in society will all be calculated and given as bonus rewards!]
Max was on high clouds, his hands were trembling with excitement while he clenched his teeth, "With this power…."
His breath grew ragged while his eyes burned with desire, "With this power, I'll take over everything! I'll control the underworld and become its Godfather!"
…..
Max was walking through the streets in the middle of the night. His back was straight as a pole while a smirk was plastered on his face.
His glinting eyes kept glancing at his hand; a silver ring shone under the moonlight.
It had been a few minutes since Max's life had changed, and he had resumed his walk towards the gang leader's house.
"That bastard turned me into his slave! He made me run around like a rat while he enjoyed himself!"
He clenched his jaw while his face scrunched as he continued, "I will take revenge!"
Max has decided on his first target, the gang leader's wife.
But he didn't have much hope as he reckoned that she wasn't that beautiful or a lustful pig, like that guy would never leave his wife.
'But still, it's worth checking out,' Max mumbled inwardly as he continued walking.
He walked for a few minutes before he reached the house.
It was on the edge of the city, in a quiet middle-class neighbourhood, with a small porch at front.
Max slowly walked over, his eyes gleaming with curiosity. But his eyes soon turned towards the window to see the lights were still on.
'Good,' he mumbled inwardly, a small smile blooming on his face.
Reaching the door, he lifted his hand and rang the doorbell.
DING DONG
He then waited for the woman, his mind wandering off, 'I wonder what she looks like…'
But he didn't have to wait long when he heard a voice coming from behind the door, "W-Who is it?" The voice was soft, almost fearful.
Max raised an eyebrow at this, but still yelled, "I'm sent by Ken! I work for him!" He then took a pause before continuing,
"He sent me here to inform you that he will be staying out, and also to guard you!" Max's eyes glinted as he added the last part.
Silence engulfed the air as Max waited for a response, and soon, his smile widened when he heard footsteps from the other side of the door.
He straightened his back as the door opened.

"What is your name?" A woman who appeared to be in her mid thirties.
Her long black hair fell over her voluptuous body, which was loosely covered by a black nightgown.
Max's heart thumped against his chest as he looked at her. His eyes travelled to her ample bosom, her deep cleavage, and her nipples, which made a small bump in her dress.
His eyes lit up as he looked at her face; her ice-blue eyes pierced his gaze as he thought, 'She's perfect!'
His smirk widened into a grin as he said,
"Hi, my name's Max! Can I come in?"
