Chapter 21: System Error
What happened to Haru was almost like a private torture session, but not a physical one, he did not know how to choose. He knew that neither of them was really interested in him, they only wanted the money and the housing, so he did not have much to lose by choosing one, but, by choosing one of them, the one who was not chosen would feel bad and, because of that, the relationship between the three of them would be compromised.
To maintain the friendship between the three of them, he chose:
"We can share, one day each of you can give me a blowjob, or two, and I will give you a share of the money I earn from the bets. Is that okay?"
The two of them looked at each other, they did not want to admit that they had lost and ended up accepting his proposal, the two of them would share his penis and divide part of the gold coins.
"But there is one condition, the amount that will be paid has to be the same, otherwise that would be favoring one side. It is better if we agree on an amount, is that okay?" Mio asked.
Hina really did not care about the money, but she did not want to refuse the offer, money should never be refused. She knew that very well.
"Let’s think of an amount and, while you recover, you will read the book I bought for you," Hina said, pointing at a book on top of the desk.
"Book?" Mio asked.
"He needs to study, since he has to enter some university and he is not someone endowed with much knowledge."
"Calling me stupid would offend me less than that."
"I’m joking, but I’m serious. You need to take this seriously or you will end up being left out, and it is at universities that the chance to become part of the army is made possible. Research or combat, it does not matter which military profession you enter, you will be very well rewarded, and I’m not talking about money, I’m talking about a future and a long life. The pills the army gives its members can greatly increase their life expectancy."
"You talk as if this wasn’t common knowledge."
"Actually, I didn’t know," Haru said, feeling even worse.
Mio felt bad when she said those words, she did not know how to undo this. She just watched Haru pick up the book and go to bed. He lay down and opened it to a page, he was dejected.
Mio tried to say something, but Hina preferred that both of them leave him there, perhaps that would give him the motivation he needed to become a better person, or someone less worse.
He continued lying there reading the book, Mio and Hina went somewhere else, the two of them were closer, but there was still a rivalry between them. They both liked him, but in different ways, and neither of them admitted it. Nor would they admit it.
[Roll the die and multiply all your money!]
’But what is this?’
The system notifications were becoming more frequent, Haru pressed a button that appeared on the status screen and a virtual die was rolled, the die stopped and the number one was on top, he won nothing.
[Consolation prize: fifty orc crystals!]
The crystals fell onto the bed, he collected them all and put them in his inventory.
He waited for another notification, but the system remained silent.
He returned to reading, his brain did not seem to understand what was written, no matter how much he read, all the knowledge seemed to escape him. Haru was beginning to get tired, he could not focus, his mind was fading away and he was beginning to have random thoughts.
[Shop unlocked!]
He clicked on the screen and a shop with several items appeared, the items were varied and separated by category, he could choose food, weapons, clothing, and even monster crystals, any crystals he wanted could be purchased through the shop. He had an idea, buy several crystals and solve the guild’s problem. However, the shop had a purchase limit, he could only buy two crystals per day, some items could be purchased more times and others only once per day or even once per week. Besides that, only slime crystals were being sold.
[Shop removed!]
’But what was that?’
[System error!]
[Wild Fury skill unlocked!]
[Wild Fury skill removed!]
Several notifications appeared, Haru was almost going crazy, he spent several minutes trying to turn them off until he managed to do so. For more than five minutes, he had been hearing the wrong notification over and over again.
He returned to his studies.
When he was almost falling asleep, Hina appeared in the room, she commented on a system error, the notifications had also appeared for her. But neither she nor Mio knew what this notification meant, what they did know was that everyone had received several notifications at once. Something had happened to the system, but no one even knew what the system was, the ancients had simply accepted it when it appeared and taken advantage of the abilities to fight against demons, this had become normal. A power that had appeared out of nowhere and, after several centuries, the first error had occurred, it was like a bug in some game. But this time the bug had real consequences.
In the newspaper, four captains who had died in an attack appeared, the demons had taken advantage of the system error to defeat the soldiers.
"Do demons have the system?" Haru asked.
Hina thought for a moment, she had never asked herself that, she did not know the answer. She decided to search the internet, but no useful information was found. So, no one knew. Or they did not share that information.
They stopped thinking about it and decided to return to the dungeon, Mio was there, her body glowing with light, her pussy almost exposed by that armor.
They entered the dungeon and went straight to the second floor, then used the card and went to the second, then to the third until they reached the seventh floor. Haru was much stronger.

He looked at the giant tiger and began the wave of attacks, Mio was using her right hand to masturbate Haru, she moved her hand very quickly, Haru was almost ejaculating. When the jet of semen gushed out, he managed to cause visible injuries to the monster, the increased damage and the water bullets were having an effect.
The monster began to run, but Hina used a skill that restrained the monster. A few more shots and the monster began to explode, the wave of energy sent everyone flying away. They hit the dungeon wall and Mio collected the rewards.
