Primordial Lust System

Since the beginning of time, there was lust, and from it came life—an essence encompassing all elements within the universe. From it, volatile energy rose, birthing energies and multiple concepts, all tying back to it.

Its supremacy was undoubted. Yet years, decades, centuries, millennia, even space-time circulations later, not one had come close to comprehending the full magnitude of its essence. None were found worthy to wield its true power.

Yet you have been chosen from across different realities. You have been found to carry a spark, something burning within you. Something the concept of lust has deemed worthy enough to wield its power.

Become its champion, and once again reignite the embers of supremacy long forgotten in the dredges of time.

Wield lust to bring ruin to the universe, and hold power beyond imagination.

Do you wish to become a champion of lust?

<<Yes>> <<No>>

Rows of text filled his vision. As he drank in all the information, a crease formed between his brows. But when the full magnitude of it dawned on him, the crease smoothed.

Things were a bit different than expected. The system wasn't as simple as he had thought, the mechanics behind it were a bit... complicated.

He could understand the part about the system being ancient… but the overpowered part sounded a bit exaggerated. Lust ruling over everything? Absurd didn't even cut it.

The final part was shrouded in mystery. Becoming a champion of lust? On one hand, it sounded cool. On the other, it sounded like becoming someone's puppet.

But who was he to complain? He was weak as fuck, and now that he was offered a gateway to power, he was still hesitating.

He clenched his fists. He had nothing to lose and everything to gain. What eluded him was why this system had chosen him. It spoke of a spark flaring deep within him.

Was this because he didn't originate from this universe? A transmigrator's starter pack? Whatever it was, he didn't give a fuck, his decision was already made the moment the notification blinked in front of him.

"Yes." A whisper escaped his lips as he still grasped the naked beauty on his lap.

The words had barely left his mouth when a mystical sight unfolded.

A splendiferous light ignited in his chest, illuminating everything around him.

Including Areola, whose silver eyes snapped open, turning to the youth before her. Her mouth gaped wide as she watched him glow with an enchanting light.

Warm streams of energy flooded into his being. He felt his organs bathed in soothing currents, filling every part of his body.

With every passing second, stupendous changes unknown to him began to take place, his body recrafted to hold power never meant to be wielded by humans or any other life form.

Everything was going spectacularly fine. His wishes were coming true. Every dream of a protagonist was now unraveling deep within him—until it wasn't. Well, until everything went to shit.

[Error! Error! Error! Primordial Lust System is unable to merge with host! Assimilation to hive is halted! Host is an anomaly. Forced takeover initiated!]

"Wait, what?" Aurelian rasped, yanked from his bliss. Something was wrong, he could feel it.

Things weren't supposed to go like this. And that part about a "forced takeover"? Was definitely not comforting.

The light encasing his figure flared violently, the red sheen taking on a darker hue.

"I'm not liking where this is going." Aurelian groaned. This was starting to feel an awful lot like… something was trying to take over his body.

His vision blurred. An urge to close his eyes and drift into unconsciousness overwhelmed him, but he resisted. He had a feeling that if he closed his eyes now, he'd never open them again, or worse, when he did, it wouldn't be him anymore.

Just a mindless puppet.

"Argh, fucking hell!" Aurelian cursed, his obsidian eyes glinting with the bitterness swelling within him.

From the minute he transmigrated into this world, everything had been fucked up. First, awakening the most useless talent. Then, his status being stripped from him. And the multiple targets all painted on his back.

Before taking over this body, the former owner had been a conceited piece of shit, making enemies as if his life depended on it. And now that he'd been discarded, Aurelian had inherited an awful list of enemies. His new life could be summed up as one of those arrogant young masters who died in the first few chapters.

By all means, he should have embraced the darkness clawing at him and let go. He had nothing to fight for now. His virginity was finally broken. He had no regrets. Perhaps the peace he yearned for was in death.

Yet the moment the thought surfaced in his mind, it was repelled instantly, as if even entertaining the idea was sacrilegious.

Disgust welled within him as he inexplicably spiralled deep into the depths of his soul, tapping into something primal lying dormant there, stirring it awake.

"Hahahaha! Master, you've finally crossed into the SSS rank?! Far faster than I had ever anticipated. Your monstrous potential is as expected! Huh? Wait What is this I feel coursing into your body? A corrupted system?"

"Impudent gods! Unable to recognize the immensity of the heavens and earth! My master is not to be trifled with!"

An ancient voice, laden with incomprehensible power, echoed in his head.

And as it did, the heavy drowsiness vanished instantly. He was anchored back to reality, met with a mesmerizing sight.

The girl was shaking his shoulder relentlessly, calling his name. "Aurelian, wake up!" Her hands glowed with a silver sheen as streams of energy flowed into him, seeking to heal.

Her large cleavage lay exposed as it rocked wildly with every desperate tug.

When his obsidian eyes snapped open, a sliver of happiness crossed her face, and with it, a strange contentment washed over him.

It was good to know someone still cared. Parting his lips, he reassured her: "Worry not over me, I am not harmed. Watch over me for a little while longer."

His eyes closed once more as his consciousness drifted to the depths of his soul.

He saw no one, but he could feel a presence. He just couldn't perceive it. And as he did, a question formed at the back of his mind.

So I had an all-powerful grandpa to guide me? He just happens to be in my soul instead of a ring?

With that established, he voiced the questions burning inside him: Who are you? And that shitty excuse of a system, was it trying to corrupt me? And you...are you my cheat?

A moment of silence passed. Then another. Before the voice boomed once more:

"I see. You have yet to regain your memories… Master, they are far too powerful to be contained in this weak mortal body."

"What?" Aurelian snapped, growing more confused.

"You are weak now. Forgive me for my boldness, but listen closely. There is not much time. You were not supposed to awaken me before reaching SSS rank. Now that you have, your mortal body is slowly collapsing. Just know this—you were a powerful figure, and you still are. You merely shifted your form into this mortal body in order to achieve more. You have lived countless lives—Max, Aurelian, and so on. All you.

This body is perfect for you now. What just happened was another silly game of the gods. They have deduced your uniqueness and want to control you. It's complicated, and I can't explain it all, so I won't.

You are unable to tap into your power, so I will create a channel point for you, something familiar. A system.

With it, you will be able to access power from your past life. As you grow stronger, you will understand everything. Ascend to SSS rank as soon as possible, then I shall fully awaken to serve you once more… Master!

Now go, it is done! You shall wield the records of your past! And transcend the power you once held!"

"Huh?!" Aurelian gasped, inhaling sharply as he stirred awake. And with it, something else stirred too.

[The Supreme Records of the @£#&'* of Lust has awakened and merged with the host.]

Aurelian sat still, lost in thought, before a question escaped his lips, one he never thought he would ask:

"Who… or what the fuck am I? And even more importantly… have I just acquired an upgraded version of a system, with a grandpa in the soul who calls me master as an added bonus?"

Mumbling to himself, his brows furrowed.

"If all that is true, then… Supreme Records?"
