Chapter 2 - Chapter 1: When the Shared Demon King Meets the Simulated Hero_2

This starts with his speedrun through the video game "Simulated Hero."

At first glance at the cover, he thought it was a strategy harem game like "Lance" or "Blood of the Saintess."

He was ready to criticize, but discovered a new world.

The hero—female.

The partners—female.

The villain—female.

It was a whole romance with Sisterhood Unlimited, so how could he not play?

But after playing for a while, he felt he had been deceived.

It's plain as day (a slap to the face)!

The illustrations and models were so well done, was it really just meant to be G-rated?

He didn't believe in that nonsense and angrily stayed up all night playing for two days and nights, finally encountering the only non-cannon male character—

The final villain of the first run, container of the Outer God Desire Mother Tree, arch-nemesis of the hero: the Filthy Moon Demon King.

He was immediately struck by this Demon King.

After all, his looks were appealing, and his lines were amusing.

"Rephya, how about you kneel down and admit your mistake, and we'll call it even."

"Besides me, no one else is worthy of a one-on-one with her."

"This hero of yours certainly brings joy."

And with that cold gaze treating everyone like trash, he felt the game's freedom was still lacking.

There was no option to kneel down and admit his mistake!

But what does a game have to do with him? Why would he recall memories from a past life?

Chloe's expression grew increasingly grave.

Because he had just been reincarnated into the world of "Simulated Hero."

At this moment, the Star Realm Ark of the human federation was sailing toward the galaxy.

The Ensar naval port at the Fallen Star Sea had not yet been overrun by demons.

The fallen Lochy people were still searching for their missing princess.

In this era where extraordinary might filled the land, he thrived at Ethereal Emblem University thanks to his "Recovery" talent.

And here was the starting point of the "Simulated Hero" story,

His tragedy began because a big shot took notice of him.

It's not gutter literature.

Someone needed his help to perform a surgical treatment.

Money...unlimited!

He thought he would just assist one surgery and gain financial freedom, so he accepted the job.

However, two weeks before the surgery, followers of the Evil God from the Crimson Church suddenly attacked the district outside the university.

There were two very peculiar victims at the scene.

One was the protagonist of "Simulated Hero," the heroic maiden Rephya.

Her talent "Holy Bone" was stolen in a blood sacrifice by the attackers.

The second was him.

He was injected with a mysterious potion, lost his extraordinary power, and became a mere mortal, even losing his Recovery talent.

At the time, he felt it was "round spicy"!

By taking the big shot's job, he had to bear the consequences of breach.

Failing to heal was one thing, but not going to heal was another.

He couldn't gamble on it.

So he discreetly procured a magic potion from the black market to forcibly boost his sequence level, planning to go all-in.

He failed miserably, losing both money and assets, and in that moment of distress, he recalled his past life.

According to the plot, soon the heroic maiden would rise swiftly with the help of the simulation system.

While he, due to the malpractice, would be held accountable, eventually succumbing to the lure of esoteric practitioners, step by step descending into depravity, turned into a cream puff by the Outer God Desire Mother Tree, and becoming a container.

"So the Filthy Moon Demon King is me?"

Calm down!

To avoid becoming "Desire Mother Tree's domestic issue," he must find a way.

Since he's a Transmigrator, surely there's some cheat, right?

"System Daddy, if you're there, give a sign... Damn, if you don't come out now, your son is gonna die!"

[Ding, keyword detected, Blessed with Many Children System starting]

Damn, there really is a cheat essential for Transmigrators!

As the name suggests, the more children, the more benefits the system provides.

Firstly, the awakened talent and cultivation of offspring can be perfectly shared with the parent.

Secondly, as offspring grow, various attribute rewards can be unlocked, enhancing oneself.

But this doesn't change his current situation.

There's just one week left before the big shot calls for treatment, does he really have to go multiply with the Desire Mother Tree?

So he set his sights on the system's special feature—

Oath Partner!

Compared to regular partners, Oath Partners have a quantity limit.

The currently open quantity is one.

But as compensation for the limit, Oath Partners not only receive system rewards through advancing romantic progress,

Even the chance for offspring to inherit both parents' talents increases by 20%, along with an additional 10% chance of acquiring new talents.

He instantly saw hope of regaining the Recovery talent.

But then he thought, even an oath couldn't save him.

One week!

Just one week!

Where does he find time to have a child?

Doesn't falling in love take time?

Doesn't rounding the bases take time?

Doesn't pregnancy take time?

And do you freaking know I'm just a sophomore?

Blessed with Many Children?

If he really impregnated someone, he'd have to face ninety-nine problems.

Getting stuck as a corporate drone is the first problem.

Childcare expenses are the second problem.

Full-payment house and car, the third problem.

...

Problem! Problem! Problem!

Who would've thought even in another world, there are steep bride prices and parenting costs?

If it were just one, it'd be fine, but a whole group? Even a family with a gold mine couldn't afford it!

Wait... Maybe it's not impossible.

For example, our game's original protagonist, the Simulated Hero Rephya.

The Blessed with Many Children System probably originated from a community brother's creation.

The love tasks tied to Oath Partners absolutely wouldn't accept substitute literature.

If the hero's simulation involves him without substitutions, doesn't that imply...

The Idea King initiates a bold hypothesis.

The Idea King decides to carefully verify.

Rephya, I'm coming for you!

...

This was his first encounter with the single ponytail girl today.

Just as he sat down after drying his hair, he heard the system prompt.

[Detected the love task of the Oath Partner being interfered by an unknown external force, the system begins intervention]

[Intervention successful!]

He found his consciousness levitating, transformed into a ghost momentarily, hovering behind Rephya.
