Chapter 1: Wake up the system and a better life is just around the corner!

In the dimly lit office, a cute white-haired little girl was leaning against the corner, her tiny body completely drained of strength, her teary eyes fixed on the girl in front of her.

“Wuu… I-I’m sorry, I was wrong, please let me go…”

This powerless little girl, cowering in the corner and begging for mercy, was me.

But no matter how much I humbled myself, the girl before me showed no intention of letting me off.

“Oh my~ Oh my~ Sensei didn’t do anything wrong. Sensei just wants to fulfill this time’s tags, right? So let me help Sensei achieve those tags~ If I remember correctly, this time it’s office, humiliation, and coercion, right~?”

The girl giggled as she slowly approached.

Though she said she was helping me, her eyes gleamed with a playful yet dangerous look, like a predator eyeing prey that could no longer escape.

“N-No need, I can fulfill it with another girl… Eek!!”

Before I could finish, the girl’s hand gently brushed against a certain part of my body.

With a cute whimper, my already powerless body completely lost all resistance.

Oh no, I’m done for…

How did it come to this?

The story begins that night…

In a dimly lit room, I lay alone in bed, staring at the scattered streetlights outside, thinking about how I’d have to go teach at the school again tomorrow to pay off my debts.

A wave of endless melancholy washed over me.

Others at twenty-four already have cars, houses, marry rich and beautiful women, and reach the peak of life.

Meanwhile, I, Gui Ye, was still struggling to pay off my father’s billions in debt.

Truly, a future shrouded in darkness—that’s me.

To shake off the gloom, right before bed, I decided to pick a doujin that suited my tastes and… well, use Huang Zhong’s second skill (a bit embarrassing, not sure how to put it QAQ…).

Hmm?

Tags: office, coercion, humiliation…

The cover looked pretty cute, so I went with it.

Three seconds later, with a shudder, the image in front of me lost all appeal.

What followed was an overwhelming sense of loneliness.

Staring at the doujin’s cover, I suddenly felt a pang of envy for the protagonist.

Surrounded by so many 2D girls from the start, able to do outrageous things without worrying about losing their affection—if only I could be the protagonist of a doujin…

At that moment, a wave of intense fatigue hit my brain, and my consciousness grew hazy.

So tired…

I want to sleep…

My eyelids grew heavy, and under the weight of drowsiness, I closed my eyes and drifted into sleep.

When I woke up, it was already the next morning.

Still groggy, I rubbed my eyes and got up to get out of bed.

But something felt… off.

Why couldn’t my feet reach the floor when I sat on the edge of the bed?

Looking down, I saw an unfamiliar body.

Gone was the muscular physique I’d built through training.

Instead, the body before me was that of a girl.

She was wearing an anime-themed T-shirt and black boxer briefs—clothes that fit my old body perfectly but now hung loosely on this girl’s frame.

Under the black boxer briefs, a pair of snow-white, slender, yet slightly plump short legs dangled in the air, their delicate skin tempting one to reach out and touch.

Something tickled my ear, and as I reached to scratch, I found a strand of milky-white, long hair, smooth and silky.

Startled, I looked up and met the reflection in the mirror—a young girl with a tender face, her small mouth slightly agape, staring at me with her water-blue eyes.

Her innocent gaze held a mix of surprise and daze, utterly adorable.

This… is this what I look like now?

I hurriedly reached down to my crotch, but no matter how I searched, I couldn’t find “little Guiye.”

Gone?

Thinking this must be a dream, I reached out and pinched my collagen-filled little face hard.

A sharp pain shot through me, making me regret it instantly.

I shouldn’t have pinched so hard, QAQ…

But it was this pain that snapped me back to reality, forcing me to face a truth.

“Huh?! Why did I turn into a girl?”

Then, something even stranger happened—a mysterious voice answered a question that shouldn’t have had a response.

“Host, you have awakened the ‘Hentai Protagonist System.’ From now on, you will…”

The sudden unfamiliar voice startled me so much that I couldn’t even process what it was saying.

“Hey! Who’s there? Stop hiding, I already saw you!”

I scrambled to my feet, grabbed a broom nearby, and assumed a defensive stance, scanning the room.

But there was no one else in sight.

A flash of hentai plotlines crossed my mind.

In stories like this, where someone inexplicably changes gender and then a stranger mysteriously appears in their home, it’s usually because someone wants to whisk the gender-swapped protagonist away for some unspeakable deeds.

Oh no.

Really?

But how could I, Guiye, ever let something like that happen to me?

I maintained my defensive posture, but the intruder never showed themselves.

Why is this happening?

Could it be some girl whose feelings I toyed with coming back for revenge?

In my entire life, I’ve never provoked anyone.

The only reason I could think of for someone seeking revenge would be that.

“Host, this system exists within your mind, so…”

“Waaaah! Come out already, don’t kill me! Listen, it wasn’t my fault, she was willing, QAQ…”

Unable to locate the source of the voice, I clutched my little head and crouched down in a defensive huddle.

Aside from occasionally playing with a girl’s feelings, I’ve never done anything to deserve this!

Why did I suddenly turn into a girl, and why is someone in my room?

Worst of all, I can’t even find where they’re hiding.

“Uh… Host, it’s this system speaking to you.”

The mechanical, electronic voice echoed in my mind again, and I started to realize something.

The tone of this voice didn’t sound like someone out for revenge.

“System? Oh, it’s just a system. Why didn’t you say so earlier?! What ‘star’ system? You scared me half to death!”

If turning into a girl could happen, a system popping up wasn’t that strange either.

“Hey, system, why aren’t you talking now?”

“Nothing. I just realized that in moments of extreme speechlessness, a system really can’t say anything.”

Hearing this, I felt a surge of annoyance.

“What’s that supposed to mean? You scared me, and now you’re speechless? Just tell me what’s going on.”

“Let me briefly explain. This system is called the ‘Hentai Plot Progression System.’ It was created in response to the wish you made before bed to become a hentai protagonist. It exists to help you fulfill various hentai storylines.”

At this, my heart leapt with joy.

“So, you’re saying I’m a hentai protagonist now, right?”

“Exactly.”

“Woo-hoo~!”

If I could accept turning into a girl so easily, awakening a hentai system wasn’t that far-fetched either.

As expected, when heaven closes one door, it opens another.

Sure, I turned into a girl, but if I get to be a hentai protagonist from now on, that’s totally worth it!

Excited as I was, I still had one question.

“By the way, why did I wake up like this?”

“That’s because building and operating this system requires energy, which could only be drawn from you, the host. After the system was fully constructed, to ensure your safety, you were temporarily transformed into this form. But rest assured, as you progress through hentai storylines, you’ll collect energy. Once you’ve cleared enough and gathered sufficient energy, you can use this system to restore your original body.”

“Oh, I see.”

I nodded, starting to think it over.

Sure, I’m a girl for now, but the thought of experiencing hentai storylines with all kinds of heroines—mature women, lolis, teens, or even milfs—made my heart race with excitement.

And once I clear the storylines, I can return to my original form.

It’s like getting an awesome experience for free.

No matter how you look at it, it’s a win-win. It’s like a gift from the heavens!
