2 Seduction System
"Brother Yisoo..."
Maybe a minute had passed, maybe thousands of years. Unable to keep track of time, Baek Yisoo suddenly opened his eyes. A muffled, masculine whisper rang in his ears. The whisper seemed to come from both near and far. He didn't understand what it was, but the sound was thick, hideos and evil-smelling.
Like a stone falling into a lake, Baek Yisoo's consciousness began to ripple.
Who was it? Whose voice was that?
He thought that when a person dies, they go to heaven. Then why did he hear such a disgusting voice?
Or were the angels also male?
"HMPH!"
Baek Yisoo was hit hard on his body as a displeased voice rang in his ear. The blow caused him to startle awake. The pain had the effect of cold water.
"If you're so tired, you shouldn't have accepted my invitation."
Baek Yisoo barely opened his eyes and turned his head. The warm sensation of the candlelight gradually clarified his thoughts. He was no longer in the darkness. In front of him and beside him were Kwang-su and his friends, looking at him with displeasure.
"Hey!"
Kwang-su pushed Baek Yisoo's head with the tip of his finger. Unable to keep his balance, Baek Yisoo fell to the other side.
"A man leaning on my shoulder... disgusting."
Baek Yisoo blinked eyes. He couldn't believe what he was seeing. The helplessness he had felt when Namgung Bong had grabbed his throat was new.
What was going on?
Wasn't he dead?
Or did he feel that way?
He remembered his last moment. Namgung Bong had lifted him up with one hand and strangled him. His lungs had collapsed, his veins had burst, and finally he had been thrown to one side like a sack of shit. That his life was so insignificant.
Baek Yisoo was furious.
Even though it was all a dream, everything felt so real.
[Profile created.]
At that moment, he heard a cold female voice and jumped up.
[Initiating Seduction System...]
Suddenly a magenta-colored rectangle appeared in front of him. Something was written on it, but Baek Yisoo did not understand it. On the contrary, he was so frightened by their sudden appearance that he couldn't control his movements.
Bam!
His foot accidentally hit the table and knocked over whatever was on it.
Crack!
The pitcher of liquor, the appetizers and the enthusiasm of those present were smashed to pieces.
But the windows kept opening in front of him.
[Synchronization complete.]
[Missions created.]
[Welcome User.]
Baek Yisoo couldn't believe what he saw. The magenta-colored rectangles that appeared one after another were something he had never seen before.
[Debriefing in progress...]
Baek Yiso turned his head when that cold voice sounded again.
"Senior Brother, will you pinch me-"
Bang!
The unexpected punch from Kwang-su knocked him down. The pain gave him awareness. Punches and kicks came from all directions as an intense headache returned. Baek Yisoo didn't even have time to realize what was happening.
"You stupid son of a bitch!"
---
When Baek Yisoo opened his eyes, he couldn't get up because of the pain in his body. The severe headache recurred when he opened his eyes. Who knows how long he had been asleep?
"Was I dreaming? Or am I dreaming now?"
If it was a dream, he was not at peace. He had been severely beaten and after killed. Experiencing all this in just a few minutes made him think it was a bad dream. After all, no one in their right mind would think such a thing was real.
But a moment later he jumped up, startled.
"The same articles again..."
It was a half-meter-long magenta-colored box, almost a meter in diameter. It had strange characters on it that he could read even though he was illiterate.
[Beginner Gift Box]
On the magenta-colored box was a pretty, light-colored ribbon. Baek Yisoo touched the box, still unable to make sense of his situation.
[CONGRATULATIONS!]
Baek Yisoo was startled by the noise, fell back and hit his head on the ground. Suddenly, new screens opened in front of him. He kept trying to get as far away as possible, but he couldn't.
Memory Piece x1
Target Coupon x1
Free Statistics Points x4
Seduction Points x10
Koo Mihyun's Clothing Set x1
The text on the screen suddenly started flying in the air and coming towards Baek Yisoo very fast. They were very fast. Baek Yisoo was also very frightened because he didn't know what was happening. He tried to run away from the words, but he couldn't. The words entered his forehead and disappeared.
He felt something warm in his body.
Then his whole body was briefly shocked, as if cold water had been poured over his head.
"What is this?"
As if he was experiencing a sense of déjà-vu, the memories surfacing from his subconscious awakened a strange feeling in his heart. He felt as if he knew everything but had forgotten it.
[Mission Completed!]
['Making Sense of the System' successfully completed!]
[Features unlocked.]
Baek Yisoo was suddenly relieved of all his fear. It was like the sudden calming of an ocean that had been furiously surging just moments ago. All the questions in his mind were suddenly answered.

Even though he was calmer than before, Baek Yisoo was surprised by these windows that appeared in front of him. The Seduction System was a rescue mechanism invented by the universe centuries ago. Mother Earth had created it for weak, powerless women to protect them from tyrant men.
So far there had only been three users.
And he was the only man among them.
"The part I don't understand is: Why me?"
Thanks to the Memory Piece, he had memorized a detailed instruction manual for the system. That's why he didn't doubt the authenticity of the system. But when he put all this aside, a question arose in his mind.
Why was it him?
Baek Yisoo thought for a while but couldn't think of anything that made sense. He was no different from the others. He was neither lucky nor handsome. His opinions were not respectable, he was not strong or smart. He was just one of the shitty losers in this shitty world.
He put his hands on the floor and desperately massage his neck, he had to ignore this question. No matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't find an answer.
"If this system is really like this..."
He was a miserable slave who had lived his whole life to make others happy, who had no value. In all this Baek Family, there was not one person who really cared about him. He was ugly, incompetent, and worst of all, a loser.
"...I can control my own destiny!"
But the Seduction System, as it was called, focused on seduction. Although there was no limit to what a system could do, he didn't think anyone would love an ugly and worthless slave like him.
Moreover, sexuality was still a taboo for him. He had never even had a real conversation with a female fly in his life. If Kwang-su hadn't mentioned masturbation before, he might even have been distant from the concept.
He was afraid.
Of rejection and what might happen to him if he acted.
The Yuan Dynasty was very strict on this issue. A complaint to the authorities and adulterous couples were immediately arrested and dealt with by the religious authorities. Adultery was a great sin and Baek Yisoo feared the consequences.
He was so afraid that he thought for a moment that the Seduction System was a bad thing.
[Mission Series #1]
[Under the Oak Tree]
Baek Yisoo was startled but not surprised by a new window. There were many functional windows in the Seduction System, such as the Information Window, the Market, the Mission Board. Baek Yisoo had learned how to use them thanks to the Memory Piece.
The quest series represented a series of tasks that she would receive a reward for completing. From what he learned from the Memory Piece, these tasks could not be refused.
Baek Yisoo hesitantly checked the mission details.
[Under the Oak Tree: Baek Iseul and Namgung Bong make love under the oak tree, not thinking about Baek Jin Ae, whose heart is filled with hope. Record their lovemaking moment with the image stone!]
[Rewards: Free Stat Points x2, EXP 10x, Relationship with Baek Iseul 10x]
Although he understood two of the rewards, he didn't understand [Baek Iseul Relationship 10x]. But Baek Yisoo read the task again and his blood ran cold. All his thoughts about the reward vanished when he remembered the names Namgung Bong and Baek Iseul.
His fear was still fresh. Desperation and hatred still fueled his heart, but they were both out of his league. Baek Iseul in particular was known for his ruthlessness.
"There is no way I would do such a thing!"
Baek Yisoo shook his head, closed the duty window and threw himself on the bed. Judging from the messy room, Kwang-su and his friends had gone out after beating him. Judging from the heat of the appetizers, it had been at most ten minutes.
Baek Iseul and Namgung Bong were still two hours away from going under the oak tree.
