In this crossover anime/manga series, my romantic choices in my head are a bit strange.

[Choices related to Sung Jin-ah have been put on cooldown; there will be 24 hours before they become available again.]

[The prize pool has accumulated, do you want to claim it?] Holy crap, this is really some backwater system!

I suspect they didn't graduate from a proper college; they're following a heretical path of cultivation. They talk about things that violate public order and good morals, and none of the options they give are easy!

Lin Tian tried to find an introduction, such as how to use the system and what the rationality of these things meant, but he couldn't find one. He had to figure everything out on his own. There was only a gray image of Cheng Zhenya with a countdown timer decreasing second by second.

Receive award!

This time, the silent mantra worked. The words in his mind disappeared, and a glittering golden prize pool opened up before him.

[Gain Personal Physique: Extraordinary Charisma]

[Enhanced Talent Skill: Stealth]

[New player gift pack opened, obtained E-rank Hunter Physique] "Hunter Physique?"

A warm current flowed through Lin Tian's body. He clenched his fist and found that he was indeed much stronger than before. His bones cracked a few times. He took off his clothes and looked in the mirror. His body was taller and more muscular.

Lin Tian used to be an ordinary person. He thought he could only wait for Cheng Zhenyu to take him flying in his life, but with the help of the system...

Perhaps he has the strength to be no less than Cheng Zhenyu in the future?

But he quickly banished these thoughts from his mind, leaped onto his soft bed, and yawned sleepily.

"Who cares about all that!"

Cheng Zhenyu can definitely carry him, so what use is his strength? Time to sleep! Tomorrow will be an even better day!

The author's note: Thanks to the comment for reminding me, I just realized my synopsis was too offensive and half of it was deleted.

Chapter Three: Is this woman looking at me?

The next morning, Lin Tian strolled around the streets as usual.

He had nothing in this world: no identity, no money, no language skills, and he was even captured by a local gang to work as a errand boy.

However, after that gang was wiped out, he unexpectedly received a sum of money from an anonymous person. He also often chatted with this person on Instagram. Lin Tian didn't have many friends, and the only person who was willing to practice with him before was this unknown person.

With this initial capital, he managed to make a living in South Korea. He was lucky enough to buy a few houses and now works as a landlord, so he's financially secure. To help Cheng Zhenyu with his medical expenses, he occasionally does odd jobs, such as tutoring or coaching—anything that allows him to see beautiful women. His life is gradually getting better.

As Lin Tian walked, he scrolled through videos. He came to a fenced-off area with a very tall gate inside, and a mysterious deep blue vortex in the center.

This is a unique feature of this world: a portal!

"Let me check the news... Oh, it's a dungeon, a D-rank dungeon, no doubt."

Lin Tian watched with great interest the large group of hunters bustling around in front of the portal. Now that he had the strength of an E-rank hunter, dungeons seemed to be no longer a distant dream for him!

...Cheng Zhenyu?

He was surprised, as Zhenyu, with his reputation, would rarely explore D-level dungeons, and then something even more unexpected happened.

Song Zhilie, a square-faced man with short dark hair and a light stubble, and Li Zhuxi, a tall and beautiful woman with long orange hair, a gentle face, and a slightly pointed chin. Unfortunately, her coat was too long, and her figure was completely obscured.

Is today the day the story begins?

This combination is hard not to make people think!

Zhenyu, who was inside, also saw Lin Tian and waved to greet him with a smile. To his surprise, Lin Tian not only responded but also stepped forward and gave him a hug.

"Is this Zhenyu your friend?"

Lee Joo-hee looked at Lin Tian in surprise. She studied Lin Tian's handsome face for a while, and her face inexplicably turned red.

"Yes, I'm Zhenyu's friend. Just call me Lin Tian!"

"Ah! Hello, I'm Lee Joo-hee. The healer for this dungeon!" Lin Tian smiled and shook her hand, and Lee Joo-hee smiled back. "Jin-woo, going down to the dungeon again?"

"D-rank dungeons are too difficult. Wouldn't it be better to practice in an E-rank dungeon? Anyway, I'll be there for you if anything happens at home. Safety is the most important thing!"

"No, I feel bad for always troubling you, Brother Lin! I want to try my best no matter what!"

"We'll see."

"Miss Joo-hee is a Class B healer. With her here, there won't be any problems!"

Goodness, is this the pressure already?

Li Zhuxi wasn't proud of those words, and smiled somewhat awkwardly. "That's true, Miss Zhuxi, I'll have to trouble you to look after Gu Zhenyu!" Seeing Lin Tian acting like an elder to Zhenyu, and with Zhenyu not objecting, Li Zhuxi was incredibly surprised. It seemed Zhenyu and this Lin Tian had a very good relationship!

Her attitude also became more serious.

"Don't worry, I will definitely bring Zhenyu out safely!" Haha, go ahead and plant that flag all you want!

We chatted for a while longer.

Lin Tian stopped waving goodbye and found a place to sit down by the roadside after watching Zhenyu and his group disappear into the portal.

Cheng Zhenyu would be subjected to inhuman torture inside, but Lin Tian did not stop him.

Lin Tian had known Cheng Zhenyu for several years and understood him better than he did from watching anime.

If temporary suffering could bring him power, he would definitely do it! He desperately wanted to become a hunter so he could earn more money to treat his mother!

Since he was bored anyway, he sent a message to the unknown Hea on his phone.

Lin: [Log in, Nong!] After a while.

Hea: [。] Lin: [OK!]

The two chatted while playing games. Hea didn't talk much; Lin Tian did most of the talking, but Lin Tian's talent for shoveling was clearly much higher.

After winning another round, Lin Tian was still waiting for the next one when Hea said, "I'm not playing anymore after this round. I have a mission." Lin Tian already knew Hea was a hunter, but he hadn't asked what rank she was or which guild she belonged to. However, given the considerable sum she had received, he guessed her strength was around B-rank.

This mission only had one B-rank Li Zhuxi, and we weren't worried that she would encounter the Temple of Kathon, so we didn't mention it.

Okay, actually I forgot!

Do you know that Class D underground city in the eastern suburbs? I'm right at the entrance right now!

Hea replied very quickly.

Hea: [What are you doing standing there? Are you going in? I remember you don't have hunter qualifications!]

[They didn't go inside; their friends are exploring.]

Hea: [Even if they're friends, this is ridiculous! Who waits at the door like that?]

Hea: [Is she your girlfriend?] Oh my god, she actually called me Nan Tong!

【How could that be! Does Cheng Zhenyu know? It's him.】Hea: 【Never heard of him, what happened to him?】

The weakest E-rank hunter, even I can't beat him. It's dangerous for him to enter the dungeon.

Hea remained silent for a long time, until the game had been going on for quite a while before she slowly spoke:

[With a B-rank healer in the team, exploring this D-rank dungeon should be more than enough. You're overthinking it.]

Oh ho?

Lin Tian was genuinely surprised that they had found information about Cheng Zhenyu's team in such a short time.

It seems it's not just a B-class!

In short, I'm very worried; I feel like this dungeon trip is going to be very dangerous.

[You've heard the stories, haven't you? "He'll marry his wife after returning from the dungeon," "After exploring the dungeon, he'll never settle for a quiet life again," "He'll definitely bring so-and-so back safely." They said a whole bunch of things like that before they left!]

[Nine out of ten people who said something like that are dead and mutilated!] Hea: [...Indeed.]

It seemed to have remembered something bad, and didn't speak for the rest of the game.

After it was over, I left a "goodbye," and the Instagram icon turned gray. Not long after, until dusk.

puff!

The portal array flickered, emitting a sound like electricity before turning red.

Double Dungeon!

Just as Lin Tian had thought, this was when the story began! The Hunter's Guild members immediately became busy, and the area inside and out was quickly filled with people.

An unknown amount of time passed.

It wasn't until dark that a figure appeared in the portal, followed quickly by a second and a third.

This time, Song Zhilie, the captain of the hunter team, helped Li Zhuxi run out.

The first few people to come out were taken away by the guild members to inquire about the situation. Lin Tian was originally squeezed to the very edge, but Li Zhuxi saw him.

Jing rushed over and hugged him tightly, sobbing, "I'm sorry... I'm so sorry..."

With many people watching, Lin Tian couldn't be too frivolous, so he simply put his arms around his waist and asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"

He feigned realizing something, a look of panic crossing his face: "By the way, where's Zhenyu?!"

Upon hearing this, Li Zhuxi cried even harder, and Lin Tian's shoulder was covered in wet patches!

"Zhenyu... Zhenyu... Waaaaah!!!" She didn't say anything before she fainted from crying.

Lin Tian was very embarrassed. At this moment, more and more guild members arrived at the scene, including Cui Zhongyin, the guild leader of the Hunter Guild, and Bai Luhao, the guild leader of the White Tiger Guild. It was really inappropriate for him to be holding a woman.

Um……?

He saw an unexpected figure.

She has short, neat, light blonde hair, cool and sharp amber eyes, a tall and slender figure with a full bust. She is wearing a simple tracksuit with jeans, and her buttocks appear particularly broad and full due to intense training. Her legs are toned and full of explosive power.

The dancer 'Che Huiyi' is considered the female lead in the original novel who has a romantic storyline with Cheng Zhenyu.

"This is where things happen... something not mentioned in the original story. He thought their first meeting would be during the subsequent dungeon training, but he didn't expect it to be so early!"

It has to be said that the anime version was rather underwhelming, but in reality, compared to other girls he had met, Che Huiyi was still the most beautiful.

Zhenyu, you're really lucky!

Lin Tian sighed inwardly, wondering if it was just his imagination, but he always felt that Che Huiyi was looking in his direction.

The guild's medical team arrived promptly and took Lee Joo-hee to the hospital for a check-up, after which he became a person again.

Not long after.

The portal disappeared, and the subsequent plot was the same as in the original story: Cheng Zhenyu was found unconscious inside and was taken away for examination by the Hunter's Guild. The Temple of Kathon had vanished without a trace.

The crowd gradually dispersed. After thinking for a moment, Lin Tian made a phone call: "Hello, is this Zhenya?"

Does Brother Tian have any unusual fetishes? (Chapter 4)

Lin Tian arrived at the city's largest hospital.

He sat by Cheng Zhenyu's bedside, waiting for Cheng Zhenya to arrive, while reviewing the information in his mind.

Cheng Zhenya's option cooldown has ended, and the card is now flashing with colorful light, while another card has appeared next to it.

Lee Joo-hee!

She was wearing a brown coat, her eyes brimming with tears, and she looked very upset. Cheng Zhenya, on the other hand, had a calm expression, wore simple loungewear, and her face had a slight blush compared to her previous ashen appearance.

He guessed that by interacting more with the women who emitted fluorescent light—that is, the story characters—he could unlock the corresponding cards and get more rewards.

So, I need to get in touch with Lee Joo-hee next... "Brother Cheon!"

Cheng Zhenya finally arrived. Upon hearing Lin Tian say that Zhenyu had an accident, she rushed over by bus: "How is my brother?"

She had just finished visiting her mother and was halfway home when she heard that her brother had been admitted to the hospital, so she turned back, her face filled with anxiety.

"I don't know either. He was already unconscious when he was found." Zhenya stepped forward to take a look, then lifted the blanket to check if anything was missing. She breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that everything was alright, then her face turned resentful: "Brother, really, why did you have to do such a dangerous job!"

"With Brother Tian here and me around, he's really too proud to admit it!" She didn't know what kind of terrifying danger Cheng Zhenyu had encountered, and thought it was just some minor incident from before, so she didn't pay much attention.

But what she said wasn't without reason. Lin Tian had already helped him alleviate his financial pressure, yet Cheng Zhenyu still chose the path of a hunter, which was hard to understand.

It can only be explained by the plot!

At this moment, Cheng Zhenya also sat down, and for some reason, she sat right next to Lin Tian.

The blue school uniform was half-unbuttoned, and Lin Tian, ​​looking down, could just see the purple pocket with tiny beads of sweat on it, which trembled with each breath, and a strange fragrance wafted into his nose.

"Brother God!"

Her purple eyes looked at Lin Tian, ​​her sorrowful gaze appearing hazy under the overhead light bulb. "Aren't you going to help me talk to him? He gets hurt like this every time; what will happen when his luck turns bad..."

Should I advise him? Lin Tian was about to reply when he had a sudden realization.

Option A: Don't try to persuade him. Zhenyu is in the way. It would be best if he died!

—You sexually assaulted Sung Jin-ah!
