"Hieek! Wait, stop, stop!" a blindfolded and handcuffed girl yelped when I tried to fondle her boobs through her clothes. I pulled my hands up reflexively at her cries.
"Oi, aren't you the one who wanted this? Stop crying. It looks as if I'm raping you here," I sighed. To be honest, my heart was pounding as well. I thought I would be single for the rest of my life. I would've never thought I could find someone like her, who shared the same hobby.
"I am just nervous. Let's try it without a blindfold, alright?"
"Alright. But you must follow my instructions, okay?" I smirked.
"Okay." Sakura breathed a sigh of relief when I removed her blindfold. I smirked at her lascivious body. This childhood friend's body will be mine.
"Don't sit on the floor. Let's move to the sofa," I commanded.

I am Makoto Tanuki, just an ordinary student at Altair Academy. How did I suddenly get stuck in this amazing situation, you ask? The short answer is that I got lucky. The long answer is that I was chosen by a god and granted a system.
Blessings were rare; only one in a hundred people received one in their lifetime. I thought I would never get one, but for some reason, I was chosen by Aphrodite. A screen suddenly appeared in front of my eyes when I returned from the Academy. It was an offer too good to be true. I could now officially be called a hero.
[Congratulations. You have been chosen to be granted a system by a god! Will you accept? y/n]
I almost jumped for joy when I was prompted by the system. Only the chosen could see it. I accepted on the spot, my excitement only subsiding when I returned to my apartment. I almost got hit by a magic car when I crossed the road due to my excitement.
[Congratulations. You have acquired the system. Improve your power by utilizing the system and completing missions. Patron God Aphrodite has chosen you to be her herald.]
After agreeing, I inspected what I had gained from the system. I wondered whether I could use magic without a mana stone or whether I had a special skill.

First were the usual stats. There were STR, Dex, Int, and Stamina. These stats were what made heroes broken. They were enhanced by the system.
At first, I was bewildered when I saw my stats. After all, they were zero! That meant the system didn't give me anything! I couldn't be a hero with zero stats. I couldn't conquer dungeons or obtain relics with zero stats. Monsters would kill me in an instant.
However, when I hovered my finger over the stats, the system responded, asking whether I wanted to upgrade them or not. It also displayed the stat descriptions.
[Strength:
Increases your Strength. You will become stronger.
Requires 100 Essence Shards per point.]
[Dexterity:
Increases your Dexterity. You will become more agile.
Requires 100 Essence Shards per point.]
[Intellect:

[Stamina:

Requires 100 Essence Shards per point.]
After querying the system, I figured out that Essence Shards were basically a currency used to upgrade my stats. But the problem was how to obtain them.
Aphrodite was the goddess of love, so she required me to form bonds with female friends if I wanted to keep my system and its power. The system required a maintenance cost of ten shards per week. If I couldn't pay, I would lose the system and its power. I, a virgin, was suddenly thrust into a mission where I had to date a girl.
From the list of my female friends, I chose my childhood friend, Sakura Yuuki. I was shocked when the system issued missions for me.
[Target has been selected. Missions have been issued. Please complete them to gain Essence Shards.]

"What the fuck? Having sex with her? You've got to be kidding me!" I screamed at the top of my lungs inside my apartment.
I wasn't ugly by any means, but I had less than four days before the system took away my power on Monday. I was about to give up. Having sex just for rewards felt insincere. Still, before I gave up, I at least wanted to test the power I had gained.
That was when I swapped bodies with Sakura.
The swap was rough. The longer the distance between me and Sakura, the longer my soul had to drift through an alternate dimension. It felt as if I were lost in darkness before my eyes snapped open to a porn book.
Yes. The first thing I saw in Sakura's body was a porn manga depicting a voluptuous girl bound and whipped on her ass. I blinked for a second, wondering whether I had been transferred along with the porn book I kept hidden inside a compartment in my cupboard.
But there was no mistake. The proof was irrefutable. Sakura was half-naked. Her right hand was massaging her breasts, while her left hand held open the hentai manga I had just seen. This was Sakura's room, and this was her book.
A few moments later, I was pulled back into my own body. The longer the distance, the shorter the time. It was a total shame.
That night, I immediately received a phone call from Sakura, and we promised to meet behind the Academy first thing in the morning. At the back of the Academy, I found Sakura pacing back and forth, her arms crossed as she held her phone, checking the time again and again. Before she could call me again, I greeted her.
"So, you got a blessing from a goddess?" Sakura asked after I explained how yesterday's body swap happened. Then the important question popped up.
"So, about yesterday. Um… could you keep quiet?" Sakura asked. She was blushing, her fingers fidgeting.
"Hm? Ah, about the porn book and you masturbating—"
"Don't say it!!" Sakura hit me. Her face was red like a boiled octopus.
We were childhood friends, but ever since we entered middle grade at the Academy, we had rarely talked to each other. Sakura had her own circle, while I was mostly a recluse. She was a popular girl—her boobs were big, her blonde hair smooth, and her hips shaped like an hourglass. We were basically living in different worlds.
"Understood. I won't say it anymore"
"Geez. You're so insensitive. Alright. Thanks. I owe you one. Wait, this is all because of you, right? I'm not in the wrong. You are! You're a stalker."
"It just happened, alright? Who wouldn't want to test a blessing they got from a goddess?"
"Alright. Thanks." Sakura was about to leave, but at that moment, an idea came to my mind. This was a chance of a lifetime. My hand grabbed hers reflexively.
"Say, Sakura. Do you want to test it out? The book you were reading, I mean."
"Huh? W-w-what are you talking about?" Sakura blushed even harder. I could almost see steam coming out of her head.
"I mean, you don't have a boyfriend, right? I get you. You see, I actually have similar interests. You were reading Dominated Girlfriend by SM-chan, right? I read that book too," I said. "I also read other books, like My Exhibitionist Girlfriend and Submissive Girl Aurena."
Sakura gaped when I divulged my secrets. There were other, more dangerous things in my collection, but I won't say it even if you pry my mouth open.
"B-b-but…" she stammered. I noticed she didn't outright refuse. I was right—she did have similar interests. Well, not exactly the same. She seemed more interested in BDSM, while I leaned more toward training or cultivating pleasure. Still, it was a relief to be able to talk about things like this with a girl. Others would label me a freak if I told them my tastes.
Heck, feminists would even ostracize me if they knew my taste was a submissive and trainable girl. You see, the feminist movement had gained traction lately. I was fine with women getting the right to vote and having jobs, but when they began advocating for female-only jobs and female-only spaces in magic trains and companies, they lost my support.
"Well… I'm not forcing you. If you don't want it, then I guess it's fine. It's not like I'm blackmailing you here. Okay, see you. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. It's not like I've got any proof anyway," I said, disappointed.
I was about to give up my powers and that chance right there, but Sakura pinched my sleeve, stopping me from leaving.
"Are you free on Saturday?" She turned away, but I could tell she was blushing when she asked the question. Her long blonde hair gleamed under the morning sky.
"Alright. Let's meet on Saturday at my house." I tried to act cool, but I couldn't stop myself from grinning. Finally! Finally, I found a girl who shared the same fantasy! I was going to train her into my dedicated sex slave! This was my chance! Moreover, if I could make her orgasm on Saturday, I could keep this power!
I couldn't concentrate at all during class that day.
Finally, we returned to the present.
Sakura arrived wearing a white sundress. Students in my class often talked about her plump figure. She didn't have the largest boobs—that record was held by Suzumiya, another beauty and an idol—but that was another matter.
It was time to train her. I would make her mine! I would use my body swap ability to gather a harem!
