God of Systems: Maker of Heroes and Villains
Keith, a regular office worker from Earth, suddenly transmigrates to the world of the novel he had been reading for the past decade. The new world, which was also called Earth, was slightly different. People with various powers existed who were called awakeners, making this world comparatively dangerous and also mysterious. While he was thrown into the novel's world, he was also given a mystical ability to grant systems to other people. Armed with his special ability, he slowly climbs up the power ladder by taking "taxes" from the people he would give systems to. The only question that remained, was what would a realistic normal man, when faced with a similar minded protagonist, do when their goals opposed each other.

The fact that the marriage would help with the survival rate was true and was also written in the novel, but it never stated that the survival rate was a 100%. It was only after the ritual began, did Keith realise this and he just couldn't contain his anxiety anymore.
Not knowing what to do, he decided to distract himself with other things but before that, he had one thing to do. He rushed over to an inn and completed the luck ritual, the result of which was to increase Clara's luck for the next three hours.
