Chapter 188: And That's How I Didn't Get a Pet

Chapter 188: And That's How I Didn't Get a Pet

I sighed and massaged my forehead, [Reader's Perspective] causes too many migraines.

Since the system user was inexperienced and lacked vigilance towards an enemy in the shadows, I was able to use [Mythomania] to hide part of [Reader's Perspective]'s presence.

That trick doesn't work on entities with strong perception abilities and great combat experience so I'll have to come up with better methods to trick perceiving entities.

One problem was that even with [Reader's Perspective] I couldn't access all of the system user's information so I couldn't see his personal information such as skills, titles, stats, name, age, or deeper thoughts.

I have to improve this skill or I may encounter unknown situations which will be dangerous.

Another problem is that even though the system user was distracted dealing with the Dragon God, he was still able to stop the robotic arm's attack which honestly surprised me.

That attack was a mixture of [Rasen] to boost destructive power, [Anti-Rasen] to negate defensive abilities, Kon's abilities to devour vitality and thus nullify regenerative abilities, Ortro's ability to devour souls, my ability to devour minds, [False Antagonist] and [Hero's Destiny] to nullify plot armor, Death Authority provided by Rushia, [Nakama Power] to increase raw power and Tsubaki's Resonance to make all those abilities work at the same time.

It's the most powerful attack I've ever done and it was still blocked by a magic gun... Stupid system users with meaningless skills.

Fortunately, I prepared that same combination of skills to attack the system user's back when he got distracted by Ortro's attacks.

However, the system user is not completely dead. I divided the soul, body, and mind like a puzzle and put various restrictions with [Anti-Rasen] to prevent his resurrection.

Since the system user is something like a newborn, his death will only give me a small portion of Destiny Energy which would be a waste.

I have many plans for the system user so for now I stored his mind in Ortro's stomach, the body in the Rasen Dimension, and kept the soul covered with [Anti-Rasen] in my hand.

System Goddess came out of my Core of Existence and took the soul of the system user.

When she held the soul in her hands, I saw a transparent panel appear in front of her. After several configurations similar to a programmer creating a mobile app, the red gem in the soul stopped shining.

System Goddess smirked. – "Ok, now the system will be paused while I focus on studying it, I learned from my mistakes the first time I found a system user so I will be careful not to kill him by accident"

The smile of this woman is worthy of a scientist during the second world war...

"What do you think is better?" – System Goddessbegan to manipulate the system in a way that I cannot understand. – "Since this system has no intervention from external entities then I can refine several low-level systems that are not comparable to a real system, but at least it will form a small army..."

"Another option is to thoroughly study this system to find a method to update your system..." – System Goddess didn't seem too thrilled with both options, although she tried to hide her conflicting emotions. – "As for the last option... I can use this system to evolve my own concept, but well... It is your choice what we will do with this system..."

I smiled wryly, it's obvious this woman wants the system for herself.

"First study the operation of this system and check if there is any useful information for me" – I found her look of disappointment funny. – "When you finish studying the system, you can keep it to improve your own concept"

System Goddess sighed. – "I understand, I will study the system and then... Eh? Can I keep it?! Love you!"

System Goddess jumped up to hug me like a koala.

While the goddess was behaving like a child, a purple-haired girl was trying to get my attention inside my mind.

"Seeeeeeeeeeenpaaaaai!" – BB was constantly screaming and I couldn't ignore her.

"What's the matter?" – I sighed.

"Ne, senpai, if the system is converted into energy, it can become the base to rebuild my body" – BB began to speak in a sugary way. – "Are you going to let your pretty kouhai be a conscience without a body? How cruel you are senpai..."

...

I looked at System Goddess. – "As I said, the system is yours"

"Yay!"

"SEEEEEEEEENPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAI!"

Oh god, the inside of my head is too loud...

I ignored BB and looked at the colossal creature that was looking at me curiously.

"So you are the Dragon God" – A dragon the size of a city... I want it as a pet.

"You look Japanese and I can smell the presence of the God of Death and Darkness in your body..." – The Dragon God seemed to feel pure curiosity towards me without a trace of hostility.

Rushia is mad at me for not letting her join in my fight against the system user so she is exploring the rubble for corpses to form undead she calls 'friends'. I'm worried about that girl's lack of social contact.

To prevent her from getting into trouble I had Kon accompany her in search of souls, survivors, and useful resources, though most of the materials were totally destroyed by the Dragon God's attack.

"I'm from Japan" - I shrugged. – "To tell the truth I am a yakuza"

The Dragon God looked at me blankly. – "I heard that you Japanese have a habit of sexualizing everything, even inanimate objects... I thought it was just a joke"

It's sad that I can't deny that, I once saw an advertisement that sexualized a soda bottle. Japan is a strange place.

"Although it's not a bad idea" - The Dragon God nodded.

"..." - You got to be kidding

"Despite being human, you are quite strong to quickly destroy the human who could easily defeat me" - The Dragon God continued to nod. – "On the other hand, my friend used to say that it would be great to have a dragon waifu or something so I think you Japanese have a fetish for non-human women"

"Wait, I don't want to hear any more of this stupidity!" – I massaged my forehead in frustration.

[Reader's Perspective] referred to the Dragon God as masculine and although I understand that there are entities that lack a gender or sex, the macho upbringing that I have had made me dislike transsexuality and cross-dressing.

"Oh" – BB seemed to find this funny. – "Senpai is entering the world of gender-bender doujins, well-done senpai~♥"

... Although I understand the meaning of the words, I don't want to understand the concept.

Unfortunately, it became clear that no one cares about my opinion as the Dragon God's colossal body was engulfed in flames as its size rapidly shrank.

"Milf milf milf milf milf!" – Navi was screaming like an idiot.

"Senpai is a lolicon so I bet she will be a loli" – BB spoke seriously.

"..." - Tsubaki thought seriously. – "I bet she will have big breasts"

"Mmmm" – System Goddess looked at the flames. – "Little girl with big breasts? It doesn't sound likely, I also think she will be a mature woman"

I sighed and resigned myself to not having a pet dragon, how depressing.

The gigantic silhouette of the Dragon God became the size of a human, more specifically a woman.

"I win!" – Tsubaki shouted with joy.

"Tch, the universe didn't listen to senpai's fetishes" – BB clicked her tongue.

"Hahaha, admire my human form!" Dragon God asked with a smug smile.

I sighed, I hate to admit it, but this deity really knew how to pick a good look.

She is taller than me, her long orange hair has a yellow streak, red eyes like gems, on the sides of her head there are two pointed horns, her figure is slim with large breasts and wide hips, behind her a tail of a dragon. Really a good look.

"Oh right" – Dragon God seemed to think of something. – "Since now I will be a humanoid woman then I will have to adopt a new name... Hmmm, my friend mentioned a legendary yakuza named Kiryu Kazuma, hmm, I know! I will be Kiryu Coco!"

(Author's Note: Kiryu Coco from Hololive)

Normally when an entity changes its name it affects the Core of Existence of said entity which can be detrimental to the soul, but Dragon God ignored this restriction and did as she pleased...

[System Notification: The entity 'Kiryu Coco' has offered a soul link contract with the user. If the contract is accepted, the entity 'Kiryu Coco' will become the property of the user, in exchange, the user must take the entity 'Kiryu Coco' to Japan and show her the yakuza culture]

Did she change her name so easily without getting any side effects?

Whatever, maybe this world has its own rules or maybe it's all convenience of the script...

I was about to say something, but a massive amount of dead energy exploded in the city.

"DAMNED WOMANIZER!"

I looked up at the sky and saw a flat-chested girl rushing toward me with an expression worthy of a serial killer.

Dragon God, or well, Coco, watched curiously. – "Huh? Since when did the God of Death and Darkness become a flat girl?"

"I'M NOT FLAT AAAAAAAAHHHHHH!" – Rushia heard us and shouted furiously.

An aura of tyrannical energy covered Coco and she rushed to face Rushia, the worst thing is that this dragon woman is only making fun of the flat girl...

As both deities began to fight causing further destruction in this charred wasteland, I could only sigh. My daughters are not born yet and I already have to deal with childish nonsense.

"You'll need to find babysitters" – Tsubaki could guess what I'm thinking so she sighed ironically. – "Although knowing you, you will get the babysitters pregnant so you need even more babysitters..."

...

Shit.
