Chapter 2 - OMEGA

He picked up his luggage at the airport.

Julien didn't know what to do next: "What should I do now?"​​

[System: Host can do whatever he wants. You have two options: go home or find a hotel, unless you want to stay overnight under the bridge.]

Julien frowned: "Why don't I have any memories of the original body?"

[System: You're not him. His memories vanished at the moment of his death.]

Julien quickly followed: "What if someone finds out that I'm not him?"

[System: He has spent 3 years in a foreign land, studying… so even if your character is different, no one will notice. Julien from the book doesn't have friends or close family apart from his brother.]

Julien was confused as he scratched his face: "I have a brother?"

[System: Older brother, to be precise. You don't remember? President Baume is also a supporting character in the novel.]

Julien was even more baffled: "President Baume?" Of course, he remembers, the male lead and villain are his best buddies. Come to think of it, they have the same surname, but he doesn't recall the original body having any interaction with him.

[System: Your relationship is complicated. After their parents died, they quarreled. Julien went abroad and he didn't keep in touch with him.]

Julien's demeanour was thoughtful and serious: "That's a lot of information."

And there are still many unknowns, but he has the support of the system and knowledge from the book. He felt that was quite benevolent. His mood lightened and his relaxed brows were free of frown lines.

Julien ordered a taxi and went to the nearest hotel.

The next thing he wanted was…

Julien went to a hotel restaurant and ordered a glass of wine. Before he woke up in this body, he loved drinking wine.

The wine was his only comfort throughout his 30 years of life under everyone's eyes. Even if the director lectured him endlessly, a glass of wine after work could make him happy for a while.

The waiter politely asked with a smile: "Would you like anything to eat?"

Julien grinned back: "Well, what do you recommend?"

The waiter instantly blushed and said: "Peking roasted duck with sweet bean sauce."

Julien nodded: "Alright, thank you."

Julien ate and drank until he was full and returned to the room in a good mood.

Taylor Fladgate Limited Editions 1863 - nine of the ten points. The wine was in perfect balance, with sweetness and acidity in perfect harmony and beautifully integrated spirit. On the nose, a succession of subtle spicy aromas opened up against a dense backdrop of treacle and molasses. Notes of sawn oak and vanilla gave way to a spicy surge of nutmeg, black pepper and ginger. Gradually the rich, sumptuous aromas of age emerge, walnut, marzipan, butterscotch and mocha followed by rich figgy plum-pudding notes.

He was looking forward to all the different kinds of wine he can taste in this world. Julien checked his bank account earlier with System help and it turned out there is a huge amount of money. He seemed to be a rich second generation now. He didn't need to worry about getting through every day without starving.

Maybe ending up in this world wasn't such a bad thing. He should start planning for what he is going to do after he wakes up tomorrow. Thinking about it he was so focused on studying or working that he failed to remember, but it was his dream to be carefree and enjoy his time when he was young.

Julien lay down on the bed and the ceiling began to spin.

He was drunk? After one glass?

[System: You are omega, your body is very sensitive.]

He forgot about it.

He is omega.

That means that he can become pregnant and give birth to children!

What kind of joke situation is it?!

[System: Yes. Host, you are right, in this world men can conceive children. Omega can have an Alpha's child, regardless of gender.]

[System: Do you want to have a baby?]

Julien felt a flicker of irritation: "You think I want a baby? Baby, my ass!"

[System: It is a simple fact of biology that people are hardwired to procreate and pass on their genes to the next generation.]

Julien felt like he was going to cry, throw up and pass out all at once: "Listen, System, I'm done with you. Well... I'm going to sleep, or I'll try to anyway so stop your nonsense."

That night he dreamed about being pregnant with twins. His belly was so big that he couldn't even see his feet and two kids inside laughed loud at him.

That dream was absurd and ridiculous.

After waking up, Julien stretched his waist and twisted his stiff neck, but suddenly realizing there is some kind of device around it, the movement stopped: "System."

[System: You should take off the isolator before you go to bed next time. ]

Then he reached out to touch the back of his neck: "Can I take it off now?"

[System: Yes, but don't forget to put it on before you go out.]

He hesitated, and then he removed his isolator. After a while, he didn't catch any smell: "Where are my pheromones? Don't every omega have that kind of fragrance?"

[System: You didn't experience your first heat yet and you need to do that to awaken them.]

Julien was not convinced by the System explanation: "So why do I need to wear an isolator? I don't recall the protagonist of this novel doing that either."

[System: In this society, a lot of people look down on omegas. This group is rare, but their character is mostly delicate and mellow, their strength is generally low and they can't bear any hard work. Furthermore, alpha can have children with women. The protagonist didn't want to be treated worse, so he hid the fact that he is an omega and didn't wear his isolator. You shouldn't follow the example of such behavior.]

Julien got the hint, but still asked: "Why?"

[System: When you are in heat it's impossible to control your pheromones even if you are dominant. We also don't know when it's gonna happen.]

He remembers about that kind of situation - when the protagonist's heat arrived for the first time, the male lead was by his side and this led to knotting and bonding. If alpha isn't in love with the omega and that thing is an accident, abandoned omega can die. Of course, this isn't the fate of the protagonist and male lead, but a certain cannon fodder ends up similar.

Original Julien was in love with the villain, not mutual. One day being in heat, he desperately approached the man and deliberately released his pheromones causing alpha to knot him in uncontrollable lust. After that night he kept waiting for a happy ending, but the villain disappeared.

Julien pinched the isolator, his expression complicated. Obviously, he will acknowledge the fact he is an omega and wears the isolator properly. He doesn't care about how people will perceive him. Omegas also have basic human rights.

And he won't get involved with that kind of alpha. He wanted the villain to wholeheartedly pursue his own happiness, he would quietly bless him.

Julien placed the isolator on the table and went to the bathroom to take a shower. After a bath, he finally felt alive again.
