Hello everyone,
From now onwards, the story will be in the first-person pattern. Please enjoy!!

"What? How is that possible? What's going on? Are you saying that I am in the game 'Arizinons Sense'?"
[Yes and no. This world is real, not a game.]
While trying to digest the explosive news I just received, I collapse directly onto my bed.
'Arizinons Sense, Ether... how could I not know these words?'
It was during my second year of high school when the game was released, and it immediately became a great hit.
Basically, it was an eroge game...
Boasting about great capture targets, adventure, action, and yes... heart-moving romance. It was essentially a story of capturing each target and expanding your harem as big as possible.
What set this game apart from others was how hard it was to capture the girls' hearts. Each character felt like it had its own life. Instead of the normal route where we have a choice to pick to increase our favorable points, you could type your words and get different responses.
The more you progress, the harder it gets as you have to work hard to keep your harem afloat.
As a man of culture, I had also played the game... secretly, of course.
Well, I could have boasted about being the top player as I had the largest harem and could keep it afloat.
The feeling of conquering the heroines was so addictive that I couldn't stop playing and ended up becoming a pro who conquered many girls that others could not.
"So, are you basically saying I was reborn in the game? But why?"
I was really curious. Why did I get a second chance? Why me?
[Well, host, to start with, this is your game world but real. There will be no second chances, no restarts, and no retreats.]
[The actions the host takes will affect the future, and everyone here is real and has feelings.]
[As to why you are here, it is because of the God of Games.]
"God of Games? Are you saying a god gave me this chance? Why?"
[The God of Games is one of the supreme gods in existence. As for the chance the God of Games gave you, it is not free.]
"Wait, not free? What do you mean?"
*Ding...*
[Main quest initiated:
Info: Take all the girls away from the main protagonist, take all the girls for yourself while ensuring that the protagonist lives a full bachelor life.
Reward: Getting to freely live in this world.
Failure: Having your soul completely tortured for eternity in hell.]
Reading the main quest I received, I had only one thought in my mind:
I was screwed!!
While taking all the women for myself and living a harem life does sound great, it definitely has a huge backlash.
One must know that the game was almost similar to reality, where only you could know the result after the action.
As an eroge, the game had the tsundere, the sadist, the masochist, the kuudere, and the... yandere.
Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against yanderes. In fact, which man doesn't love it when a woman will do anything for him and live just for him?
But when that love leads to a woman activating a god-tier forbidden magic to keep you for herself, that's when things hit the fan.
Remembering the look of the woman who manically laughed after declaring him hers alone sent a shiver down my spine.
"Wait, why did the God of Games do this? What's in it for him?"
[The host may not know this, but as the God of Games, it is his responsibility to play all the released games and completely conquer them.]
[However, for the first time, the God of Games couldn't completely win in a game.]
"So, you mean that since he couldn't complete 'Arizinons Sense', he created the real world just to torment the protagonist?"
[Correct, host. As the chosen individual, you must conquer each of the targets while making the main hero's life tougher.]
Hearing this, I was really speechless. Just because he was spiteful, he wanted to torture the game's main hero.
"So basically, I should take all the women for myself while making the protagonist a bachelor?"
[Yes.]
I was speechless. While what I said was easy, completing it was almost close to impossible.
Each of the capture targets either has immense background, power, or beauty—none would settle for just any Tom, Dick, or Harry.
Sighing while rubbing my head, I chose to temporarily put the problems on the back burner and focus on the present.
"Can you at least tell me who I am right now?"
[Host has taken over the body and become the character Austin Lionheart.]
Hearing the name, I jumped out of my bed not only shocked but also fearful.
