NOVEL WEB Chapter 1- Waking up
"Please....le-leave me...please...I...I beg you...."
My hands trembled. My mind couldn't comprehend the situation I found myself in. A current ran across my whole body as I saw the person I was currently touching in a very inappropriate manner.
'I was....experimenting...and then something erupted in the backyard...and then...I blacked out....ah, my bread must be ready....wait...what bread? Hmm...what was I...ah!'
I suddenly jumped from my spot as the woman I was holding burst into tears with her beautiful face stained with hot burning tears.
I looked at my hands...they were a little smaller and quite soft. I looked at the woman again, who still was crying...and felt like I had seen her before somewhere. However, the place where I saw her was not a real-world
'Fantasy...game? Agh...why is everything so confusing?...ah....fuck...my head....' Clutching my head I tried to ascertain the situation I am currently in.
There is a girl with bright blond hair and green eyes currently tied from her ankles and wrists. Her body was something I had previously touched and the way she was crying displays that I had kidnapped her.
The surroundings I found myself in, were unfamiliar. My vision was a lot higher than what I was used to. My body felt sluggish and so did my mind.
Amidst the whole chaos, suddenly my vision turned blank, and I fell to the ground.
'....I hope this all is nothing but a dream.'

"Huh?!"
The time I woke up, a lot of time it seems to have passed
The girl whom I held captivated–Catherine was the chosen holy maiden and someone who was not supposed to be here.
I have known her since she was one of the characters in the novel I used to read in my last life
Yes. Last life.
I died and reincarnated in this fictional world.
I had enough time to process all the memories I received from this body and conclude the situation I was in.
'The Rage of Ragnarok' was the novel that I used to read a lot in my free time. Apart from magic experimentation, I loved to read this story again and again because of my fondness for its character background, versatile power levels, and also numerous backstories of even side characters.
It was an action and romance novel, shown from the protagonist's perceptive. The novel is focused on how the protagonist joins the Royal Vanguard Academy and makes friends. He learns to control his powers and defeat all the villains in his path. Naturally, since this novel has a harem in the tag list, the protagonist gets involved with numerous girls, romantically.
The main focus of this novel is to help the hero control his powers and travel through these small incidents so that in the future he can end the war between Evil and God.
And this person in front of me was one of the heroines whom I had kidnapped.
Reason? I am obsessed with her beauty and want to steal her away from the Protagonist.
I, Blake, was a mid-rank villain who was destined to be destroyed by the hero after six days.
In this world, many individuals get unique skills upon awakening. Some receive their powers based on their bloodline, just like the protagonist.
And the skill which I possess is the Contract-Vow-Binder. That was my only skill apart from being filthy rich.
The skill allows me to form a contract just using my speech and the people or person involved in this, once agreed, have to follow the terms and fulfill what they promised in exchange for something. If not, then the Death God, which bestowed me with this blessing would come to claim their life.
The contract that I bound the heroine with was—that I, Blake would help you, Catherine Riverdale, to help make the potion within seven days in my mansion in exchange for three thousand gold coins.
Now, here is how I tricked her.
I made her vow that for the next seven days, we would prepare the potion required to treat the protagonist. As such, for those seven days, she was bound to remain with me.
In a way, it was a win-win for me.
The Protagonist couldn't come inside and take her away since the Contract formed a defensive barrier around the mansion. If tried to be breached by force then Chaterine would die. And even if he somehow enters inside, taking away Catherine would be fatal for her.
That's why for the next six days, Catherine would be held captive by me.
'Haaaaaaaaaaah....what a mess."
Canonically, I couldn't satiate my lust with Catherine since she was a holy maiden. Trying to steal her virginity or defiling her through the backdoor would incur the wrath of the Goddess of Life—Shelhendiar. Because of that, my canon counterpart begins to torture her.
Pulling her hair until it doesn't get separated from the scalp. Burning her with molten wax. Stepping on her palm while wearing pencil heels. Starving her for the six days and insulting her by not allowing her to use the washroom.
All the hideous crimes could make every single reader of this story hate Blake. When the hatred reaches its height, the Protagonist arrives and kills Blake in the ugliest fashion
Ripping his limbs, plucking his tongue, gauzing his eyes, and many more. After that, he uses a healing potion to keep Blake alive then again tortures him until Blake himself doesn't begs for death.
Then only, Blake meets his end and never appears again in the story.
And now, I am that Blake.
I looked at the blond nun wearing the school uniform and currently sprawled on the ground. Her hands were bound with an anklet which were artifacts to restrict her magic.
Physically and emotionally she is weak as such torturing her leaves permanent marks on her remembrance. It takes a long time for the protagonist to heal her.
Although I had no intention of hurting her, I knew it wouldn't help me against the hero.
As such, I tried using my previous life powers....however, something strange yet intriguing popped up,
[FnF System]
[Initialising....]
[Ding!]
[You have unlocked the FnF system!]
[All your skills and storage items have been restricted!]
[To gain them back, the host needs to gain points through FnF: Forgiveness and Favor.]
[The sins which the character Blake has committed need to be repented for. And the system points would be granted based on the Host's hard work!]
[For every fifty points that the host would earn, a skill or an artifact would be granted.]
[Forgiveness from:
1. Catherine Riverdale: 0/100]
2. Charolette: 0/100]
[Current Skill: Contract Binder]
[Possible Reward: Wind Manipulation]
[Good luck!]
....
"..." I read the content of the system while continuously trying to use my previous life powers.
However, to no avail.
My main ability of Curse and Blessings Artificer wasn't working.
One might ask, why wasn't I panicking? Well, I was a twenty-two-year-old guy who had seen various things in my life. And this situation wasn't the worst of them.
In this life, I was eighteen years old and was currently in my third year. However, I wouldn't remain alive to see my next birthday if I didn't do anything about this heroine.
From what I could see, the system wants me to achieve forgiveness from both heroines and in
return, I would be rewarded.
Sweet.
Although I wasn't too optimistic that I would get out of this alive, given how insanely overpowered the main character is, I still couldn't just lose hope.
"System...when I finish all my tasks, can I get all my previous life skills and storage items back?"
[Affirmative!]
Nice~
Once I tread through these difficult obstacles and finish all the quests this system offers, I will gain my original skills.
And when that happens...
"Muehehehe~"
....I will open a weapon store in this world as well.
******
A/N:- This one would be a little sad. Sometimes depressing. A lot of fluff and some OP battles.
I hope you guys enjoy this story as well~
