Chapter 3: Becoming a Girl

“Huh?”

Su Nian couldn’t help but feel that this system was being a bit too considerate.

Whatever he was worried about, the system seemed to address it immediately.

“Responding to the host, the system harbors no ill intentions. It only cares for the host, aiming to make the host stronger and ultimately become a god. That is the system’s [primary goal].”

Su Nian pondered this and found it reasonable.

Just like a pilot, you can doubt many things, but never the instrument panel.

As a transmigrator with an awakened system, doubting the system was out of the question!

In other words…

If he were to become a girl, he would experience 10 times the humiliation value.

Which also meant 10 times the speed of becoming stronger.

Moreover, if he completed the task and defeated that low-tier demon, he could immediately revert back.

So, in that case…

It didn’t seem like much of a problem.

If it was just a temporary transformation into a girl, experiencing the life of a stunning beauty who was the center of attention, it actually sounded quite interesting!

As for the cost of failure?

What a joke!

The reason he hadn’t defeated that low-tier horned demon before was because he hadn’t awakened the system yet.

The past was the past, and the present was the present!

Now, he had the golden finger.

He decided not to rush into a decision and first checked what he could buy with the humiliation value.

He opened the [Shop] at one star.

[System Shop]:

Strength Fruit (Permanent): 50

Agility Fruit (Permanent): 50

Wisdom Fruit (Permanent): 50

Basic Swordsmanship (100% proficiency upon purchase): 50

Clarity Potion: 10

Recovery Potion: 10

B-grade Magic Talent: 500

B-grade Swordsmanship Talent: 500

Universal Tracker (One-time use): 500

Initial Humiliation Value: 500 points

In other words.

He could now use the initial 500 humiliation points to purchase items from the shop.

It was his first time using the system, and he couldn’t help but feel a bit excited.

“System, give me one Strength Fruit, one Agility Fruit, and the Basic Swordsmanship.”

“Ding dong, purchase complete.”

…

In an instant, a red fruit and a green fruit floated in the air, accompanied by a tattered book.

Without hesitation, he consumed them.

Soon, Su Nian felt a noticeable increase in strength, and his body felt much lighter.

The effects were truly remarkable.

Basic Swordsmanship learned.

As the tattered book disappeared, the swordsmanship he had just acquired felt as if he had practiced it thousands of times, seamlessly integrating into his body.

Without needing to think, his muscle memory alone allowed him to execute all the basic sword techniques flawlessly.

Incredible!

As expected of the system.

At this moment, Su Nian was already fantasizing about becoming stronger with the system, showing off and humiliating his enemies while beautiful women flocked to him.

Just by purchasing two fruits and the Basic Swordsmanship.

He was now fully confident in defeating that horned demon.

After all, he had almost beaten it before.

As for the [Universal Tracker] in the shop, it dispelled Su Nian’s final concern.

Originally, he had been hesitating whether to accept the task.

What if he accepted the task but couldn’t find the horned demon?

Wouldn’t he be stuck in that form?

But now, with the [Universal Tracker], he was certain he could locate that low-tier horned demon.

“Wait a second.”

“What if the horned demon dies before I encounter it? What happens to my task then?” Su Nian voiced his final concern.

“Ding dong, if the target dies, the task will be considered void, and the host can voluntarily revert from the transformed state.”

Su Nian once again carefully reviewed the system’s historical dialogue-it didn’t seem like a trap.

There shouldn’t be any issues; it should be acceptable.

Well… decision made.

“Accept the mission!”

“Ding dong, the host has accepted the mission: Defeat a specific horned demon. Upon success, reward an S-grade self-selectable combat talent.”

“Ding dong, during the mission period, the host will transform into a female with maxed-out charm. The transformation will be lifted upon successfully defeating the horned demon. However, if the mission fails, the transformation effect will become permanent.”

As soon as the system’s voice faded.

A flash of white light enveloped Su Nian.

He became she.

The girl slowly raised her hand, her slender, fair fingers shimmering with a soft glow under the sunlight, a stark contrast to the rough palms she had before.

No wonder she had maxed-out charm-even her hands were so beautiful.

She felt the changes in her body: her hair had grown longer, her chest had developed, and… well, it was quite substantial.

Lastly, there was… that area.

Oh well… it’s gone now!

But don’t worry, little buddy.

When she defeats the horned demon and completes the mission to obtain the S-grade talent, that’s when you’ll return!

Su Nian stood up, getting accustomed to her new female body.

Her movements felt light and agile, and her strength hadn’t diminished either.

Good, let’s check the stats.

[Attributes]:

Name: Su Nian

Gender: Female

Height: 168 cm

Combat Power: D+ (equivalent to an intermediate swordsman)

Charm: 100 (peak human level)

Skills: Basic Swordsmanship (Mastery: 100%)

Current Mission: Defeat a specific horned demon

Current Status: Clothing 70% damaged

Only then did Su Nian realize that her leather armor and clothes were in tatters.

In the past.

When she was still a boy, it wouldn’t have mattered much.

As long as she wasn’t in combat, a piece of cloth would have been enough to get her back to town.

But the system store didn’t sell clothes…

Never mind, there’s no one around anyway.

There’s a small stream over there; let’s take a look at her appearance.

By a clear stream 30 meters from the road, Su Nian stopped.

She gazed at her reflection in the water.

It was an exquisitely beautiful face, with eyes as bright as stars, skin as fair as snow, and lips as red as cherries without any makeup.

She was momentarily stunned, lost in her own reflection.

No wonder it was a 100-point peak human charm level.

Even those heavily filtered influencers or meticulously crafted 3D models couldn’t compare to the beauty reflected in the stream.

If only…

After completing the mission and turning back into a boy, she could meet a girl like this.

Looking further down, Su Nian blushed slightly.

Due to the damaged clothing, the snowy peaks between her chest were faintly visible.

In this state, it might not be appropriate to return directly to Flash Town…

As she pondered.

Su Nian heard movement in the distance.

After hiding in the woods and observing for a while, she realized it was a merchant caravan.

Judging from their direction, they were likely heading from Green Fort to Flash Town.

Exactly the direction she needed to go.

In her current state with damaged clothing, it was a bit inconvenient.

Perhaps she could ask the caravan for a piece of clothing, and traveling with them would also be safer.

“What?”

“Only one piece of clothing left, and it’s… a maid outfit!”

Su Nian tried her best to cover the damaged areas with her hands, her moist, crimson lips letting out a melodious exclamation.

“I’m sorry, truly sorry,” said Elina, the caravan’s female boss, looking with pity at the excessively beautiful girl before her.

She handed over a small blanket.

At the same time, Elina shot a threatening glance at the guards and workers of her caravan, signaling them to stop staring.

Even so, Su Nian, facing the entire caravan with most of them staring at her disheveled appearance, still felt utterly humiliated.

This was the first time she had been gawked at like this…

“Ding dong, detected the host’s sense of humiliation from being stared at by the crowd. Humiliation value increased by 35.”

Huh, this works too?

But such humiliation value,

I’d rather not have it!

Thus, Su Nian once again faced a choice.

Should she continue wearing these tattered clothes, or should she put on the maid outfit?
