This passing out bullshit has to stop. That was my first thought as the world once more came into focus. Luckily, I hadn't hit my head on the bed frame when I fell. Standing on my tit was... What the hell. It was a miniature succubus looking just like the ink on my tit. Yeah, she was gorgeous. Wait, she was like fun sized. I wonder how she would feel inside me.

  “I can read your surface thoughts, Sara, and to answer your question, it would be fucking mind blowing.”

  Well, wasn't she just a cheeky little slut. I grinned at her words, “ I bet it would. So who are you? My guide, I take it.” She nodded in affirmation as she kept her balance as I stood and sat on the edge of my bed.

  “My name is Ari, and well, aren't you a smart cookie. Most only choose their guides for a week. I was getting bored. I have another two thousand years with my contract with the System. For the past five hundred years, I have been in statis. Let me tell you. They say Oh, you don't dream or think while in stasis. Yeah, someone is lucky I haven't gone postal.”

  I couldn't help but giggle a little. “ Well, I am glad I could save you then. Yeah, there are some brains under these blond locks.” Actually, there was a lot of brains; I just had to be pushed to use them. Since Grandpa passed, Katie had filled that role; if she hadn't, I would have dropped out or been kicked out of college by now. Ari snapped her fingers, bringing my attention back to her.

  “ Well, let's get this show on the road. You have notifications and choices to make before the System is done with you.”

  Her talking to me made this whole thing feel even more real.

  “Yes, Sara, this is real. Not a hallucination. No, the partying you did this weekend is not returning to remind you of all of your bad choices. The System is coming, and you are really lucky to have a head start. Now chop chop. “

  I

  Impatient little imp wasn't she. Shrugging, I brought the blue screen back into focus.

  Choose your race.

  Elf (C)

  Succubus (RE)

  Futa (experimental) (L)

  Human (C)

  “So Ari, you can see what I am seeing.” I saw her nod with a smile on her face. Looking over my choices, I was able to figure out what the lettering was, but one. “ What's RE?”

  “RE is Rare Elite. The rankings are Common, Uncommon, Rare, Rare Elite, Legendary/Unique, and Mythic. There are a few higher ones, but nothing you need to be concerned about at this point.”

  Pretty straightforward forward, but it wasn't really an issue what I was going to pick. Both Katie and I loved our anime, but we really loved our henti. Yeah, we were lovers, partners in sex crimes, even a lot of our fantasies were similar. In this case, she always wanted to be on the receiving end of a futa. Though I did too, I really wanted to be the one giving it to her. It was a little game of ours with me trying to get her to submit to me, and I've gotten close a few times, but she always said if I could grow an actual cock she'd be my dirty slut till the end of time. Not thinking twice, I chose it.

  Futa (Experimental)

  On Earth-8898, during the third world war, a devastating virus was unleashed, wiping out all male DNA. In an effort to keep the Human race alive, the surviving Females of the planet came together as one, saving their race. The Futa experiment came about as a result. This version of the Futanari can cause their clit to turn into a penis, retaining the sex of both male and female. A Futa can only be impregnated by another of their race, but their seed is very potent when fertilizing another female of almost any race.

  +1 to STR,END,INT every level

  +1 to VIT,CHR, and WIS every 3 levels.

  3 Racial Abilities

  1 Racial ability or upgrade at every five levels

  Well, shit balls on a stick. I could hide it, grow it, and not have two wrinkly ball sacs getting in the way of wearing mini skirts with no panties. Win for the home team.

  Reading the stats, it felt impressive. “So Ari, how big a difference is there in ranks with the races? “ I mean, everything looked awesome, but having a base to go with would help quantify the thought/

  “Sure, basically, Common races get two stat points per level. Only Humans get free stat points. Uncommon gets three, Rare gets four, Rare Elite gets five. That is on average. Some races get added bonuses in stats, but may not get other things to balance out.”

  “And at level three, does that mean I get six stat points?” I saw her nod, and my jaw dropped. “ Fuck me.”

  “I would, but I don't have a physical form here. “

  I laughed at her playfulness and could appreciate it; I was excited, but a small part of me found some concern. If there was a System, did that mean the Earth at some point, probably soon, was about to get fucked with a big black dildo with no lubrication? I noticed Ari didn't respond to that thought, but figured I would leave that thought alone for the time being. I would start a mental list of things I need to ask or figure out. That would help me cope. I just had a feeling the list would grow more than shrink. Having a list would also help keep from feeling overwhelmed. I had a habit of doing that to myself.

  “So I am curious, is this System trying to balance things out a bit or something? “ From the stories, I would have expected more from a Legendary class, or maybe the greed goblin was coming out.

  “Yes, though not everyone, or everything, is created equal, this upgraded System is designed to allow everyone a chance to succeed. Information is harder for the Elite ruling classes to keep from the masses. Even powerful beings can be brought down with enough opponents. This new System focuses more on the whole and not the individual. It isn't perfect, but the results so far have been quite good.”

  Noticing how Ari didn't expand further, I figured either she couldn't tell me, or something I could figure out on my own. I probably just didn't need to know right now. I was just getting my big toe wet into the obviously much larger reality. Fuck people are going to lose their minds when they realize they aren't the center of the fucking universe anymore.

  Class Options

  Scribe ( C )

  Scholar ( C )

  Prostitute ( C )

  Build A Bear ( R )

  Well, that felt a bit lackluster. I sighed. Of course, I would get a prostitute. I didn't need the money. I had a trust fund I drew from. I only pulled out just enough to meet my expenses and do a little shopping. I didn't take anywhere near what I could. I always found it interesting when people offered me money for sexual favors. I didn't have a problem with doing it. I had fun doing it, and I made extra shopping money. Who was I to say no? This one time, Katie and I made ten thousand to tag-team an older guy. It was fun, and though he wasn't anything special physically, he could fuck. It was a fun time.

  Yeah, we went on a total shopping spree with that money.

  Focusing back on the choices, the first three seemed pretty self-explanatory. Sure, I could look deeper into them, but they didn't tickle me anywhere special. The name of the last choice caused me to laugh. I loved that store. Buried somewhere in my blankets, I had like three bears from there.

  “Classes are based on a number of factors, but can also be limited based on how powerful other aspects of the person are. So in this case, cause of your Legendary class and other things, you're getting a Rare class to start is the best you can hope for.”

  Well fuck me, that made sense. Again, the System ensured there was some balance. Well, let's see what this rare class had to offer.

  Build A Bear

  This class is designed for Sara as she has no idea where she has been going in life, and even her college courses have been lackluster. This class was designed specifically for her to find a path. The System is being generous. Due to your lack of direction, your skills are all over the place. Yet not only have I determined you have potential. You know basic and advanced skills that you let sit and gather dust. You want a recommendation, Sara. Take it. Focus. Otherwise, you won't last.

  Love you

  System

  +1 to VIT every level

  +2 Free points every 2nd level

  Build A Bear will offer a selection of skills and abilities based on your many interests. Once the first main skill is chosen, this class will give a complement of skills and abilities. Once the first skill package is chosen, there is no going back, no take backsides, none of that. It's time to move forward. The System clock is ticking.

  I wasn't sure how to respond. It was like getting hit with a cold fish. It wasn't that the System was wrong in its assessment. I was very aware of my own faults. Yeah, so what I had an issue with was making decisions at times, especially life changing ones, and this counted as fucking life changing.

  “Hey, Sara, snap out of it. You can self pity later. You have more notifications and decisions to make, and you don't want the System to grow impatient and make them for you. Trust me on this.”

  I glared at my little guide. She didn't back down at all, pushing me forward. Sighing, I went onto the next screen.

  Perks

  You have 3 perks available. One has been used as the guide. You have two choices left.

  Secondary Class

  Mana Manipulation (tech)

  Rapid Learning

  Charm

  Well, the first choice was easy, choosing the Secondary Class. That alone, whatever it would be, could only be an advantage. I hoped. Looking over the other three, I instantly decided against Charm. First, where did that option come from? Sure, it could be useful, but out of the three remaining, I felt it was the last choice.

  Rapid Learning

  This perk allows for a faster Ranking of skills, reducing the experience needed. Also, as a passive ability, you are always learning even if you don't realize it. Once a week, you have a chance of acquiring a new skill. It could be from certain actions or situations. Also, just over time, as you repeatedly do something that can be equated to a skill.

  Well, shit balls if that wasn't a killer perk. Sure, the Mana Manipulation perk could be helpful, but I had a feeling that was something I could possibly pick up at a later time. This, on the other hand, first felt like a huge advantage. Also, I could see chances of survival increase if things go to shit. I could be wrong. There was always the possibility that, on integration, the planet could remain the same or something better. I suppose that was possible. Grandpa always said Prepare for the worst. That is what I was doing.

  So an easy pick. Now with my perks out of the way, the next screen showed a huge list of possible Secondary classes. It was a bit much. There was no way I was going to go through every option. “Ari, out of curiosity? Is there any way I can bring a friend into the System?” Probably a big ask, but worth a shot. Katie would skin me alive if I didn't try. Of course, there were other reasons. For everything Katie was, she was my rock. Had been more so the past few years, and I wasn't sure if I could go through all of this System shit without her.

  “Technically, No.” Ari grinned, “But there are a few Secondary Classes that could be used as a workaround.“ With those words, my huge list came down to just a few choices, and I had to laugh as soon as I saw them. Now I was starting to feel a generic trope in a book.

  Harem Mistress

  Harem Mommy

  Harem Bond

  “Those are your three best options, but out of the three, I would recommend the last one. I think it would fit you and serve you well in the long run.”

  Harem Bond

  The owner of this class can form a bond with another either through a mutual agreement or through sexual intercourse. The Harem bond will allow the person to be brought into the system ahead of integration. Each bond will give the owner of this class different benefits, and the owner of this class can assign one benefit to the person bonded.

  The type of bond will dictate the strength of the offered choices.

  At level one, there is a maximum of 2 bonds allowed.

  Well, not like I was going to say no to having people close to me, and of course, possibly my own little harem. I did have extra equipment now, and I was hungry. It did alleviate some concern knowing I wouldn't be alone in this. Yeah, being alone was something that scared me. Probably not surprising, but I have always been very social, even if I was a big ole nerd. Then again, I imagine the attention I had always received from my looks was a major factor in molding that feeling as well.

  Pick One Class Skill/Ability Package

  Hand-to-Hand Combat

  Basic Weapon Skill

  Basic Ranged Weapon skill

  Basic Tech Mage Skill (prerequisite met)

  Basic Survival Skill

  Basic Sex package Skill

  Basic Charm package skill

  They all were valid options. I could see a direction each package would lead to. Still, only one stood out like a beacon in the night. Tech Mage.

  “Hey Ari. So when the System hits, what happens to our tech?” I could see her going over my options as well. Sure, at times I felt she was being a little shit, but overall she has been extremely helpful.

  She was quiet for a moment, as if thinking. “Once the System integrates everything, electronic will no longer function. Everything else that is pre-system will begin to degrade, usually around five percent each day.” I could still see her looking at my options.

  “If you are thinking the Tech option, I say take it. It is rare to get a technomancy build. Especially since you have time before it happens, you should have plenty of opportunity to train. Plus, you will be able to make your own tech. Pretty much any option on the list is good. If the System is offering you a package of things, then each one will have some sort of advantage.”

  She wasn't wrong. Fuck it, I was going to go with my gut, choosing the Tech build. With that selected, I went to the next screen.

  Congratulations, you have a bloodline.

  Succubus. (Hey, good thing your guide just happens to be one. Guess someone in your family got a little too kinky.

  Please confirm your choices and hit yes when ready.

  ….

  ….

  “Don't accept yet!”

  “Why?”

  “Cause Sara, everything about your build is a custom job, plus with a powerful bloodline. It would be the most physically and mentally demanding thing you have ever encountered. You would survive, but yeah. I can help put you under just as you accept it. It will be a dreamless sleep, but you won't feel anything while the changes happen.”

  Wait, was the little thing actually caring about me in a little way? Aww. Holy shit, I have succubus blood in me. Well, I guess some things in my life make sense now. Perhaps even before the System acknowledged it, my bloodline had been influencing my life in little ways.

  “OK, well, let's get this over with then.”

  Ari nodded, and the moment I started feeling sleepy, I accepted the System prompt and once more passed out.
