Chapter 1 New Life? A System? A Harem?

(This is an extremely overpowered Protagonist where the Main Concept is what the title of the novel sounds like, and it's a wish-fulfilment type of novel where there are Harem, Yandere, Milf and Netori). If you are not interested in amateurish work, pleasure turn the wheels around)

In a tear-down Sect beneath the dual suns, a vast and weathered expanse of land was bathed in their radiance.

Amidst this surreal landscape, a young man of twenty-five lay unconscious upon a chair adorned with white robes.

His hair was as radiant as the moon's glow, a silvery cascade over his forehead, while his eyes held a captivating hue of purple, hinting at an inner depth.

No visible injuries marred his form, leaving no trace to explain his enigmatic state.

As if in response to an unseen cue, his eyes twitched, and with an almost instinctive reaction to the twin suns' searing warmth, he abruptly regained consciousness.

"Wha-What the!? Where in the world is this place!? N-No, t-this is the BlackStar Sect? W-Wait, I-I'm confused! How did I end up here!?"

His expression held a mixture of confusion, fear, and terror, all woven together in a tapestry of uncertainty.n0veLUSb.c0m

He was baffled by his inexplicable presence in this unrecognizable land.

"I-I was walking back home from work... a-and... w-what happened after that!? Ack!!"

He attempted to recall his last memories, but a sharp headache engulfed his mind, leaving his thoughts shrouded in a haze.

It was as though two distinct memories, belonging to different individuals yet strangely intertwined, clashed as they vied for space within a single vessel of consciousness.

Yet, amidst this tumultuous experience, an unexpected occurrence took place.

A panel of an unfamiliar golden screen unexpectedly materialized before his eyes.

[: Congratulations, due to the founding of 2 souls, and the requirement of being a Head Sect, you have inherited the Heavenly Harem System :]

Just like in every novel, a golden screen appeared to his surprise despite his panicked situation.

[: Ding Ding :]

[: The System has detected an abnormal clash between 2 souls. Do you wish to fuse the souls? :]

Amidst his confusion and relentless pain, a desperate desire to alleviate his suffering gripped him.

In this strange RPG-like scenario, presented with an unconventional choice by the enigmatic system, he found himself with no option but to reluctantly agree.

"Y-Yes," he managed to utter through gritted teeth, his hands pressed against his throbbing head.

[: The System has detected the pain is caused by forcing 2 souls to live in harmony; hence, fusion would be the solution to this problem :]

[: The Fusion of the souls would commence in 3...2...1 :]

[: 1%...4%...10%...30%...80%...100%... :]

[: Ding Ding :]

[: You have fused 2 souls into a single entity. Due to the fusion of souls, your mental stats have increased by a small margin :]

[: Ding Ding :]

[: You're the first to ever merge 2 souls into one; hence, you've been awarded 1 Universal Gift Bag :]

As his soul underwent fusion, the agonizing pain gradually subsided, giving way to a newfound relief.

However, the shadows of confusion and fear that had gripped him earlier remained, casting an enduring presence.

But in the passing moments, a remarkable transformation unfolded.

The memories and personalities of two distinct yet oddly parallel lives converged into one harmonious entity.

It was as if the man who stood amidst the tear-down sect was simultaneously both different and the same.

A realization dawned upon him, illuminating the obscured corners of his mind.

"I see... so this is how it happened, and now I know who I am..."

The once-terrified glint in his eyes dissolved, replaced by clarity, and his previously panicked demeanour gave way to a renewed sense of calmness.

'To simplify everything, I, Daniel Marz who was from Earth died from an accident where a truck drove over me'

'Yeah, pretty harsh, I know right?'

'But guess what? Instead of winding up six feet under the truck, I transgressed into this body where Cultivators roamed'

'Pretty amazing right?'

'It's hard to explain, but it's not like our souls are dead, our souls are fused, successfully creating a single entity where my memories and existence have been joined'

'To add on, we aren't that different'

'The names and ages are coincidentally the same, hence, there's no difference except the lifestyles I lived'

He calmly analyzed his situation to gain a better understanding of what happened and who he was.

'And how I ended up here is that I inherited my master's sect after he passed away today

'Of course, I'm deeply saddened as he was the person that grew me up when I had no one to turn to and now

'But still, the only legacy he left is this sect...'

'And no matter I have to move on...at least with this, he knows that I'm doing fine

'Right Master?'

He took a deep breath, a moment of calmness settling over him.

As he cleared his mind, he delved into the depths of his memories.

With each passing second, he grew more adept at understanding his situation.

And then, with a determined focus, he turned his attention towards the enigmatic system that had materialized seemingly out of thin air.

'Hmmm, I know what systems are since there are incredibly lots of novels about them back on Earth'

'But I don't get why I was given this system...perhaps asking if it may answer?'

He thought.

"Umm... system? Are you there?"

He tentatively called out, curious to see if the system would offer a response.

[: Yes, Host. I'm here, residing within your mind. :]

Much to his delight, the response was forthcoming.

Surprisingly, the voice that echoed back to him carried a touch of femininity, diverging from the expected monotone.

"Is there a specific reason why you've chosen me?"

He inquired, his curiosity tinged with caution.

The last thing he desired was to become some sort of puppet, manipulated by a divine entity purely for their amusement.

[: Indeed, there is a specific rationale behind the selection of hosts :]

[: The Heavenly Harem Sect has a prerequisite that the host must possess two coexisting souls :]

[: This is because a single soul lacks the requisite capacity and strength to effectively manage the System :]

[: Similar to a computer, the System's performance is contingent on its capabilities, mirroring its user's attributes :]

[: As such, the demand for two souls is inherent, and the System maintains a stringent policy against those with more than one soul :]

"So, that's the deal"

"I understand the necessity of having dual souls"

"But considering we're in a realm filled with cultivators, wouldn't there be others out there, somewhere in this world or even across the universe, with more than one soul?"

He queried.

Daniel couldn't shake the suspicion that in a universe brimming with cultivators, there must be individuals capable of melding or absorbing souls.

To him, the notion that he stood alone in this regard seemed somewhat dubious.

[: I understand your concerns and questions :]

[: However, it's important to note that possessing two souls isn't the sole requirement :]

[: Several factors come into play, such as willingness, emotional alignment, state of consciousness, gender compatibility, lingering sentiments, age, strength, and a variety of other aspects :]

[: The host is the very first individual chosen since the dawn of existence :]

[; As such, the stringent prerequisites aren't easily met, especially given the rarity of discovering souls of such pristine quality:]

[: Moreover, balancing the coexistence of two souls is a monumental challenge, as typically, the dominant soul engulfs the weaker one:]

[: Fortunately, the system intervened in your case. This is why you experienced that intense mental distress, it prevented your Earth soul from being consumed by the dominant soul :]

The system was explained in detail, and Daniel nodded in understanding as he finally got the huge picture of it.

"Now I get this part. My next question is, would you impose any sort of restrictions or tasks for me to complete?"

He queried.

[: The primary objective for the Host is to establish a harem sect. This aligns with the secondary requirement for inheriting this system :]

[: If you're wondering about what needs to be accomplished, it's essentially an organic progression within the system's goal of creating a sect harem :]

[: Rest assured, you needn't concern yourself with the system's origins, it's autonomously infinite :]

[: But at the same time, the System's goal is to make the host as strong as he can, hence, there isn't any restriction :]

[: The Host could do anything he wished to, even if it means murdering billions or raping, the system won't question :]

"Alright, that's all I need to know"

He sighed with a satisfied smile.

After all, he wouldn't want to be restricted despite knowing he was given a cheat.

'I wouldn't want to be those protagonists in some novels where they have time limits to finish their main goals which were imposed by their system'

He thought.
