oh fuck off
our walk had grown silent and long, the sun was setting as the sky was changing colors, the stars making their appearance as we walked.
the group decided to make camp for the night, travel now would be unpredictable at best, which was fine with me but not for them.
the tents and everything was set up automatically from a small metal cube the leader threw on the ground, all the girls but Raya entered the tent with the leader, leaving the smaller one to Raya and myself.
I figured I'd call him leader for now since that's what he does for his group and I still don't know his name.
I climbed into the tent and chose a side, not even bothering with blankets or anything as I just laid on the tarp like floor, eyes closed.
muffled sounds and voices were coming from next door, great!
they're having a fuckfest next door.
Raya tapped me on the shoulder, I didn't even turn around or move as I sternly spoke.
"no."(syn)
she didn't say anything and just turned around, I thought she was going to sleep, I'd hoped that, being chased after by a masturbating person for days wasn't exactly the best for my mental health, it was flattering sure but after a few seconds it got so weird so fast, I wasn't even sure I was comfortable being next to this girl right now.
but my drowsiness has given me no other choice, drifting me off to sleep quickly.

Amira pov....
my hands worked as I uncovered my buried cache, picking up the phone inside and leaning against a tree as my legs healed slowly.
"hey its me, I need you to start tracking his aura, he's escaped again."(Amira)
"when will you learn that holding him Is only a temporary and half solution."(kina)
"when we find a way to kill him."(Amira)
"we have many ways we just need someone stronger than him."(kina)
"subject 6 was stronger, higher level too, he's next to me barely alive."(Amira) I told my sister over the phone as I looked down at the sleeping blue haired, blue eyed doppelganger to Syn, still unconcious.
[system reinitialising]
WHAT THE?!
[first system no longer sealed, previous system users will regain their systems]
my mind was refusing to belive that, we can't kill Syn, if we did systems wouldn't exist, would they? but he.....this isn't true he has nothing to do with this!
my mind raced as everything I'd believed was clashing violently in my head, just what was the truth anymore?
---
I woke quickly, sitting up only to barely stop myself at the tip of a blade.
"mind putting that down before i break your arm?"(syn)
"I would-!"(tank?)
Raya woke up and with a serious look she shook her head no at the girl, as if saying it's not worth it, don't.
and she would get the message, backing off entirely.
I followed her outside and found the leader sitting around the other girls, they had this odd....glow?
[overwhelming amounts blood toxin present]
*they look completely fine.*
[they are, do not feed from them]
*got it.*
can't exactly knock what the dude is doing, my system in the beginning was way way worse and they looked fine so it was none of my business, I wouldn't ask about the blood toxins or about anything, I didn't care and it didn't involve me.
"Syn, I was able to talk to Raya last night and wss fascinated by you, from what I hear you have incredible stamina."(leader)
either this was battle praise or him asking me to be his fuck mentor.
"I want absolutely no part in whatever is following your original statement."(syn)
he looked like he wanted to say I misunderstood but there was really only 3 ways that could've gone and all of them I wanted nothing to do with so my answer was an answer to all three, a no.
"you sure do look adorable in your sleep."(archer)
[new quest, avoid becoming a woman in his harem, reward: remain male, instant level up, failure: become female and bred]
the level of bullshit I'd been put through should not be possible and it shouldn't be able to get worse, yet here we are.
I sighed and placed my head in my hands, shaking it slowly side to side.
"are you fucking kidding me?"(syn)
"pardon?"(leader)
"if you even think of trying to turn me into a woman I will rip your balls off and stuff em down your throat."(syn)
[quest completed, instant level up]
*I fucking hate this world*
"you can have Raya though."(syn)
"HEY!"(Raya)
"look, I just got the most fucked up quest from my system so as far as I'm concerned you're on your own here."(syn)
"you're not in nature anymore its not just solely about your survival!"(Raya)
"that's all my life has ever been about, my survival."(syn)
I didn't even ask her to follow me as I started walking away with my hands in my pockets, calmly whistling as I left.

head adventurer pov...
how the hell did he know?!
no one has ever caught onto my scheme before.
I had to drop my plans right then and there because the seal was breaking on the others and I needed to fix them, the new girl leaving with Syn, behind him, he didn't even look back at her to see if she was following, he really is an impressive specimen, and that system of his, its too troublesome, it's warning was just in time as I was gonna offer him to feed from one of the girls, I knew he was a blood creature of some sort based on his eyes.
---
that quest had really thrown me for a loop, I had so many questions but one of them was something I wasn't even sure I wanted to know the answer to.
*he couldn't have made me a girl, could he?*
