Chapter 2 - Chapter 1: The White Void and the Goddess

Ishi Kurosawa woke up in an endless white void. There was nothing around him—just an empty, blank space. His voice echoed as he called out, "Hello?"

Only the sound of his own voice answered.

"Where am I? What happened?" He asked himself, looking around. "Did I... die?"

Before he could think more, a bright light appeared in front of him. It grew larger and slowly took shape. Out of the light, a figure emerged.

A woman.

She stood before him, glowing softly. Her skin seemed to shine with a soft radiance, and her long, flowing hair moved as if it were floating. Her outfit was simple but striking—she wore a tight top that barely covered her chest, accentuating her curves. A thin cloth hung from her waist, covering her hips, but it didn't hide her long, smooth legs. The outfit was both revealing and elegant, almost as if it was designed to draw attention, but it felt like it belonged in this strange world.

"Welcome, Ishi Kurosawa," the goddess said, her voice sweet and melodic. "You've died, but this is only the beginning."

"Died?" Ishi blinked in shock. "What do you mean? Why am I here?"

"I've chosen you for something special," she explained with a soft smile. "You'll be sent to a new world, a world full of monsters, adventures... and powerful bonds. To survive, you'll need to bond with them."

Ishi's confusion grew. "Bond? How am I supposed to do that?"

The goddess smiled even more. "I'll grant you a skill. It'll help you connect with others, but it's... personal."

Ishi raised an eyebrow, "Personal?"

The goddess leaned a little closer. "Yes. You'll need to get close, much closer than you might be used to. But don't worry, you won't be alone. I'll give you someone to help."

With a wave of her hand, another figure appeared beside her. It was a glowing, small girl. "This is Sia, your personal assistant. She'll guide you."

Ishi nodded, still trying to process everything. "Okay, but... just bonding? How will that help me survive?"

The goddess's smile turned mischievous. "Oh, don't worry. It will help more than you think."

Without warning, the goddess stepped closer, gently pushing Ishi down onto the ground. Her body was close to his, and as she sat down on him, Ishi couldn't help but notice how tight her outfit was. It barely kept her chest covered, and the fabric stretched as she sat down, making him blush.

She leaned in closer, her breath warm against his neck. Ishi felt his heart race, unsure of what was happening.

The goddess whispered in his ear, her voice teasing. "Are you ready? This is just the beginning."

The goddess's smile widened as she leaned down even closer to Ishi. "To know what will happen next, I think I need to demonstrate it to you."

Before Ishi could fully process her words, she slid her bottom down, just enough to create a situation where he couldn't avoid it.

A loud, unexpected moan escaped from her lips, making the atmosphere feel far more... intimate than Ishi was ready for. Her eyes locked onto his, a playful and teasing look in them as she watched his reaction.

"W-What?!" Ishi's face turned beet red. His heart raced as the awkwardness hit him like a truck. He was so flustered, he could barely find words to respond.

"Is that really necessary?" Ishi stammered, trying to squirm under the goddess. "I-I didn't think I signed up for... this!"

From the side, a small voice broke through his panic.

Sia, the glowing assistant, stood there, her hands on her hips, watching the scene unfold with an amused grin. "Well, this is certainly... something."

Ishi turned to look at her, almost desperate. "Sia, a little help here?!"

Sia just chuckled and shrugged. "Hey, it's not every day I see the goddess get into it like this. You're really going to have to get used to this kind of thing, Ishi."

Ishi's face flushed even more as he was caught in the middle of the most awkward situation he could imagine. The goddess continued to look at him with that playful expression, seemingly enjoying every moment of his discomfort.

"See? It's not so bad. You'll need this if you want to survive," the goddess teased, her smile still wide and mischievous.

Ishi, flustered and completely embarrassed, was left speechless, his mind still racing as he tried to figure out what was happening. "But… how is this supposed to help me?!"

Sia shrugged again. "You'll get it eventually. Just try not to panic too much. Trust me, it's all part of the process."

The goddess slowly slid her hands to Ishi's shirt.

"H-Hey now!" Ishi yelped, grabbing at the fabric. "Don't just undress people— even if you're a goddess!"

She just smiled softly and whispered, "Shhh." Her finger gently pressed against his bare chest. The touch made his skin tingle, and a glowing rune slowly formed where she touched him.

"There," she said with a grin. "Your bond mark. This will help you connect with others… deeply."

"D-Deeply?" Ishi muttered, already blushing furiously.

"And for proof," she added, lowering her face toward his chest.

"W-Wait, what are you—?!"

She ran her tongue across the glowing rune. A shiver ran down Ishi's spine like a shockwave. His eyes widened, his brain short-circuited, and his body twitched like someone had hit the reset button.

Something very noticeable began rising beneath him.

"D-Done," the goddess said casually, wiping the corner of her mouth with a finger.

But then—poke.

Her bottom froze for a second… then shifted slightly as she looked back over her shoulder.

"Oh my…" she said with a teasing smile. Her voice was laced with amusement as her eyes flicked down toward Ishi's lower half.

"I-It's not what it looks like!" Ishi panicked, waving his arms. "Please stop doing weird things! This is too much!"

From the side, Sia covered her mouth, giggling. "Wow, that's the fastest I've seen someone get 'activated.' You might be a natural, Ishi."

"C-Can I at least stand up before I embarrass myself more?!" Ishi cried.

The goddess just gave a slow, knowing wink.

As the goddess slowly stood up from Ishi's lap, he tried to look away. Tried.

But his eyes accidentally caught a glimpse of something behind her that he definitely wasn't supposed to see. His whole body froze.

"Ah—! I didn't mean to—!"

But before he could finish the sentence, the goddess's foot slipped ever so slightly on the glowing floor of the void.

"Whoa—!"

Her body fell forward—and her soft, barely-covered chest landed directly on Ishi's lower half.

A loud moan burst from the goddess's lips, echoing through the white space.

"Aaaaaahn—!"

The entire void shook.

Lightning flashed above them. Cracks of thunder roared like the sky itself had blushed. Far below, in the new world Ishi would soon reincarnate into, the ground rumbled, clouds spiraled, and monsters looked up in confusion.

But Ishi? He had no idea.

His brain shut down completely. Steam might as well have shot from his ears. "I—I—I didn't—I mean—Why—!?"

The goddess propped herself up slightly, breathing out with a flustered smile. "Oho~ Ishi... was that your power waking up… or something else?"

"P-PLEASE STOP TEASING ME!!" he yelled, face red like a tomato, hands in the air like he surrendered to life.

From the side, Sia floated casually, arms crossed, giggling like she was watching her favorite romcom.

"Mother, seriously," Sia said with a teasing sigh. "Stop messing with him so much. You do know he's a virgin, right?"

"W-WHY WOULD YOU ANNOUNCE THAT?!" Ishi shouted in pure horror.

The goddess just smirked playfully. "Oh, I could tell the moment I saw him. So innocent… makes it even more fun."

Sia snorted. "Ishi, you're in for a wild new life."

Ishi slowly stood up, still wobbly from the "accidental impact." His face was red, his mind spinning, and his heart pounding like he just ran a marathon while being chased by embarrassment itself.

The goddess raised her hand with a soft smile.

"I'll give you a few starter boosts," she said gently. "A little more strength, luck, and… charm. Try not to die down there, okay?"

Her sweet, innocent smile somehow made him more nervous than comforted.

"Uh… thanks, I guess?" Ishi replied, still trying to process everything.

Then something clicked in his brain. He looked at the two of them—Sia floating beside the goddess, rolling her eyes—and suddenly asked, "Wait… You two are mother and daughter?"

The goddess nodded with pride. "Yes. I created Sia from my divine energy and blood. She's part of me, really."

"Ohhh…" Ishi nodded slowly. "So like, she's technically your daughter but also kinda like a part of you?"

Sia waved. "Yeah, yeah, it's weird, don't think too hard about it."

Then, the goddess's expression changed—her eyes narrowed playfully, her voice dropped low, and her body leaned in closer again.

"Hmm… Ishi," she whispered, "do you want… to take my first?"

Her lips curled into a teasing grin as her fingers traced the air in front of her. "I mean, I am a virgin goddess. Pure, untouched… all yours, if you want."

Ishi's soul nearly left his body.

"W-WHAT?!"

Sia nearly fell out of the air, her face turning beet red.

"M-MOM!! YOU CAN'T JUST SAY THAT!!" she screamed, flailing. "WH-WHAT IF HE SAYS YES!?"

The goddess giggled softly. "Then maybe I'd just reward him early."

"WHAAA—?!"

Ishi had fully shut down again. If his brain had a reset button, it was smashed ten times.

"I'm not ready for this world…" he muttered in a daze, legs shaking.

Sia facepalmed. "Mother, I swear…"
