Bab 2: Transmigrating into the Villainess's Chamber
"Don't, don't look at me like that! I-I definitely won't fall in love with you!"
[Consumed another 99 Love Elixirs, favorability level with the witch has increased to Love.]
[Ding! The proposal command for Witch Litia has been unlocked.]
"C-Curse you, why am I finding you more and more appealing? Ha… ha… my body feels so hot…"
"You really can endure. I'm completely out of potions now."
Seeing that all the love potions he had worked hard to acquire from the Goddess of Love were used up, Wu Chen's mouth twitched slightly.
With this many potions, if not used on this witch, he could have used them to win over all the female NPCs in his entire territory.
With each level of favorability increasing by 99 points and using seven sets of potions, he finally raised Litia's affection to the Love level.
Reaching the Love level meant unlocking the option to propose with a wedding ring.
"Finally, I'm going to be the first player to marry a witch!"
"Starting with the strongest BOSS in the game as my first marriage partner, it's truly deserving of my efforts these days, spending day and night grinding!"
Wu Chen said as he took out a pair of exquisite diamond rings from his inventory.
[Divine Item: Blessed Wedding Rings (Pair)]
[Description: Holy rings forged by a goddess for her own marriage, though somehow they were deceived by a scoundrel and used to marry another woman.]
[Attributes: Both parties share half of each other's attributes. The female gains half of the male's attributes, and vice versa.]
[Mutual Life Bond: HP is combined and shared as a single health bar. If one dies, the other dies as well.]
[Daily random acquisition of 3 skills from the married partner, resets the next day.]
[Enables Friendly Fire immunity, preventing self-inflicted damage to the spouse.]
[Unique Skill·Shared Senses: Optional to activate, allows sharing of senses with the designated member.]
Divine items are even rarer and more precious than Epic and World items, the highest rarity in the game.
Divine wedding rings are undoubtedly the most precious item for marrying goddesses.
Wu Chen spent months of day-and-night grinding to gather all the materials, money, and conditions needed to forge these divine rings. Now his treasury was completely empty.
To prepare for this event to marry the witch, he had exhausted all his game reserves.
"Next, I just need to put the proposal ring on you…"
[Ding! System Error: You cannot execute the proposal command on a member of the Witches! Error Code: 0X0000CNM]
"????"
Wu Chen looked at the error message in shock.
"I'll try again!"
He tried to force the ring onto the witch's hand, but the error dialog popped up again.
[You cannot execute the proposal command on members of the Witch faction.]
"What!? This is outrageous!"
Wu Chen's eyes widened, suddenly having an ominous premonition.
Could it be…
Nowadays, many romance simulation games have a frustrating flaw.
They create extremely enticing and alluring villain BOSS characters to stir players' desires, but they never provide a route or opportunity to pursue them!
You want to pursue them? Just wait for an unknown DLC release!
Some ruthless developers don't even release DLC!
So hateful!
"Could this game have such a stupid setting too?"
Wu Chen was momentarily unable to accept it.
"Hahahaha—!!"
"Marriage? Do you think lowly humans can make a marriage pact with a witch? Don't make me laugh!"
"Unless a witch willingly proposes to a human, humans cannot initiate a marriage with a witch!"
Desire Witch Litia twisted her voluptuous body, looking at Wu Chen with gloating eyes.
"Damn it, this game is playing me!"
Wu Chen was truly annoyed.
He had nearly gone bankrupt to max out the witch BOSS's favorability, and now he was told that even with full favorability, he couldn't marry her? Couldn't someone have told him earlier?
"Wait… did you just say that witches can propose to humans?"
Wu Chen suddenly had a bright idea.
"W-what are you planning? As if the noble me would propose to you, don't get your hopes up!"
Litia guarded her ample chest, warily watching him.
"Game system, since Litia's favorability for me is Love, can I use the 'Request Command'?"
In the game, when an NPC's favorability reaches Ambiguous, players can execute a one-time request command.
Of course, requests like groping or taking advantage are off-limits.
This is a wholesome game suitable for all ages!
By requesting commands, you can ask the NPC to voluntarily give you an item they have or assist you in combat, etc.
Wu Chen gathered all the goddesses to help him defeat the Desire Witch thanks to commands received through Ambiguous favorability.
[Request Approved, Command Executable.]
The familiar female electronic voice appeared in Wu Chen's mind.
"These two rings are a gift for you, given for free."
Wu Chen didn't try to put the rings on the witch himself but instead used the gifting system to place the "wedding ring" into her inventory.
[Proposal Command Error.]
[Divine Item "Blessed Wedding Rings" ownership has been transferred to Litia.]
Since gifting the wedding ring itself was considered a proposal command, the error dialog appeared.
Nevertheless, the item was successfully transferred to Witch Litia.
"Game system, use my request command on Litia to—let Litia give one of the Divine 'Blessed Wedding Rings' to me!"
[Command Executed Successfully.]
As the system's electronic voice sounded, Litia, who had been vigilantly watching Wu Chen, suddenly began to move uncontrollably.
She pulled out a beautifully crafted diamond ring from her bosom and shakily extended it toward Wu Chen.
"Thank you, I'll take it without hesitation. I accept your proposal!"
Wu Chen quickly took the ring and put it on his finger, a satisfied smile spreading across his face.
[Desire Witch Litia has successfully proposed to the human lord Morning Star!]
[Congratulations to the couple on officially becoming husband and wife!]
"W-What!? How did this happen!? What did you do to me?"
Under Litia's semi-transparent veil, a pink magical pattern faintly appeared around her cute belly button. At the same time, the other matching ring automatically appeared on the witch's slender finger.
"Nothing much, I just exploited a bug in the system. After all, a game is just a game, and it sure has a lot of loopholes."
Wu Chen couldn't help but marvel at the situation.
Giving a wedding ring to someone was automatically recognized by the game system as a marriage proposal command.
Furthermore, the witch could only propose unilaterally; initiating a proposal to the witch was prohibited by the game. So he cleverly combined these points to make Litia propose to him on her own.
"Hehe, perfect! The first player to successfully conquer and marry a witch!"
Wu Chen was extremely pleased.
He couldn't wait to record or screenshot these scenes and post them on game forums to create a huge sensation.
Although the game had become unpopular due to its imbalanced difficulty, with many players switching to other games by the company, it was still the first virtual reality MMORPG akin to "Sword Art Online." Despite the many dropouts, almost everyone had played it at some point.
Most people knew the "witches" for their extreme power.
Finally, a player had defeated a witch and married her, and this news would undoubtedly top tomorrow's trending list!
"But before that, there's one more thing to do."
Wu Chen turned his gaze to the alluring witch bound beside him.
"You… what are you going to do?"
Under Wu Chen's intense gaze, Litia took a small step back, but due to the collar around her neck, she had no room to retreat and could only struggle in place.
"Don't you think we should have our wedding night first?"
Wu Chen flashed a friendly smile.
"No! Absolutely not! When I break free one day, I'll make you pay for this!"
Litia's ample breasts heaved with anger, adding to her enticing charm.
"Just kidding. I'm a pure-hearted person. Even if we have a wedding night, we should first build our relationship."
After all, he had fed the witch hundreds of Love Potions, so it would be very easy to woo her now.
If he pushed full throttle, he could probably have the strongest villainess in the game willingly in bed by tomorrow.
"Ah, but it's a shame this is a game for all ages."
Wu Chen sighed with a wry smile.
A kiss would be acceptable, but anything beyond that is off-limits.
How nice it would be if this were a real otherworld?!
To be honest, the game company's technology is really impressive. If one becomes too immersed in the game, it's easy to lose the sense of the boundary between game and reality.
This game is incredibly realistic.
Other players have even developed devices like microscopes after playing farming and technology tree games in their territories, discovering that the game's textures were detailed down to the cellular level!
"Don't worry. What I need to do now is marry other witches."
Wu Chen smiled.
"W-what? Just me isn't enough? You even want to target other witches?"
Litia's expression grew serious as she clenched her fists.
She had hoped that her fellow witches would come to rescue her and defeat this shameless human lord.
But now, it seemed he planned to target her sisters first!
"Jealous?"
Wu Chen pinched Litia's soft, pale cheek.
"You're the one who's jealous! Your whole family is jealous! Hmph! You want to defeat other witches, but do you have the strength for that?"
Litia retorted with a flushed face.
"You gathered all the goddesses to besiege me, but that's just a one-time thing, right? And those goddesses fell back into slumber to help you defeat me. They won't wake up for several decades or even centuries. Without the goddesses' help, a mere human lord defeating witches? Dream on! Hahaha!"
"Wife, have you forgotten something very important?"
Wu Chen waved the ring on his finger in front of Litia.
"Could it be…"
At first, Litia was a bit confused, but she suddenly remembered something. She looked at the ring on her own hand, which couldn't be removed, and her face turned as pale as a ghost.
"Exactly. As husband and wife, we share each other's attributes, health, and abilities. As your husband, I now possess combat power comparable to the witches. Next, I just need to defeat them and use the same method I used on you."
Wu Chen wrapped his arms around Litia's slender waist and walked toward another witch's territory not far away.
Could he really wipe out all the witches?
Litia wriggled her hips and made futile attempts to struggle.
Imagining the fate of her fellow witches, her face revealed a trace of despair.
...
In the following days, the game world was abuzz with excitement. Many players who had abandoned the game returned, eager to witness the legendary figure in action.
The entire continent was flooded with news. Almost every day, new reports emerged about Wu Chen defeating witches and making them his wives.
The once-feared villainous boss witches, who had terrified people across the continent, fell one by one under Wu Chen's assault.
"Seriously, I was just helping to clear out the villain bosses, yet the news makes it seem like I'm the ultimate evil boss?"
Wu Chen stared at the electronic projection screen in front of him, which was scrolling through forum posts depicting him as an evil super boss who played with helpless witches every night. His mouth twitched slightly.
"Are people really just afraid of witches? It's not that they fear the witches themselves but anything stronger than them."
"Wu Chen, you are now even more powerful than us witches. You will become an object of hostility and conflict."
Dressed in a thin lace veil with her black hair flowing smoothly, Litia, wearing a collar around her neck, glared at Wu Chen with indignation. She leaned closer to his ear, her voice sultry and enticing.
"Doesn't matter, it's just a game."
Wu Chen shrugged nonchalantly.
If this were reality, he might have criticized some ugly Earthlings, but it was just a game. There was no point in overthinking it.
"The problem now is, with all the witches as my wives, what should I do next?"
Wu Chen looked at the string of rings around his neck and felt that life with his wives was simple, mundane, and monotonous.
With the final bosses now his wives, and the demon race under the witches surrendering and leaving the continent, humanity had achieved a great victory. It seemed there was nothing more to play in this game.
Should he go and deal with the goddesses next?
[Congratulations, you are the first player to complete this game!]
[You have been selected by us. Please assist us in defeating the witches!]
As Wu Chen pondered how to continue playing the game, the system's electronic voice suddenly resonated in his mind.
"Complete the game? Is there such a thing as completing an MMORPG? Could the game finally be shutting down?"
"No! I've been battling nonstop lately, and I haven't had a chance to fully enjoy my honeymoon with my witch harem!"
Wu Chen was puzzled when he suddenly felt his vision growing hazy, and his consciousness began to blur uncontrollably.
What's happening? Is it because I haven't been sleeping well lately, and my body can't handle it?
Why does it feel like my body is being drained?
"Wu Chen? Hey! Wu Chen, wake up! If something happens to you, I'll be affected too, since we share a life-and-death bond…"
In his final moments, the anxious voice of Litia echoed in his ears.
Then Wu Chen's vision went dark, and his consciousness sank into nothingness.
[A unique individual who has completely defeated the witches has been discovered in the "River of History." Shall we proceed with the summoning?]
The system's electronic voice rang out in the void.
"Summon immediately."
A solemn female voice followed, resounding through the chaotic space.
[Outside the projection of the River of History, a thousand years have passed, and the world has changed. Even if we summon the chosen one, will he truly be able to solve the crisis?]
"Uncertain, but it's worth a try."
"As long as I expend all my power and sacrifice my life, the interesting marriage contracts will be preserved and accurately reflected in this era. Don't you think the upcoming developments will be intriguing?"
[But this will cause your death.]
"To save the world, someone must make a sacrifice, right?"
[...]
[Where should the teleportation destination be?]
"Uh… Let's choose the home of the strongest boss witch he married. I believe it will be a big surprise for both sides."
