In a world ruled by powerful Gene Warriors, he was a nineteen-year-old F-rank awakener with zero talent, working the bellows in his uncle's blacksmith shop.As a fellow traveler from Earth, he dreamed of a powerful system, strength, domination, and standing at the top.

The City Lord wants to chain you to her bed. You have the power to bring kingdoms to their knees... all you have to do is open your legs.”Alex trembled, clutching his chest where his nipples were throbbing painfully against his shirt. “I am a man!

You may know me from my work on The Great Demon SystemThe first few chapters will be on earth, then it will transition into fantasy after where things will really pick up (before chapter 10). The MC will be very unique in the way he interacts and develops, things aren't always as they seem on the surface, so I hope you look forward to it :))As is common with my novels, my MC is NOT a morally ideal person, but it all has meaning so be prepared, or excited!I've been really busy with university work lately and have been cooking this novel up. I feel like it'll be something special.5 Chapters a day until around chapter 50, then I'll post daily
