Guide to tamming vilanesses

Shin had woken up feeling both exhausted and satisfied, his body heavy and his mind still clouded by the aftermath of everything that had happened. As his vision gradually cleared, he noticed Eva, Lilel, and Kaho waiting quietly by his bedside.

"So... what’s your new system?" he asked immediately.

Kaho hadn’t checked it yet. "I’m not sure, I will look it up," she said.

Lilel fluttered down and landed on top of the shy woman’s head, sitting there like a tiny supervisor, already frowning in concentration. Kaho’s system wasn’t normal, and both of them knew it. Even opening it felt like trying to force a broken mechanism to work.

She had tried before, but it hadn’t gone well. There was no clean interface waiting for her, no glowing blue screen. Instead, her "system" interface was black space, filled with scattered words floating in no particular order.

Luckily, with Lilel’s help, she could send commands directly to the system. It felt like navigating a computer by the command terminal. It was weird at first, but she could get used to it.

To begin with, she searched for the name of her system. Checking the base archives, she finally found it. It was in a file called system names.

[Primary name: Perfect Mother System]

Below, a list caught Kaho’s attention. It was the deleted/discarded names.

Kaho’s eyes moved down the list of discarded names that appeared right below the main title Perfect Mother System. For some reason, the further down she scrolled, the worse the font became, glitchy, distorted, and increasingly difficult to read.

[#00000001 - Supreme Breedable Mother System]

[#00000010 - Divine Breeding Womb System]

[#00000011 - Supreme Offspring System]

[#00000100 - Hyper Impregnation Mother System]

[#00000101 - Ultimate Seed Receptacle System]

[#00000111 - Perfect Pregnancy System]

[#00001000 - Goddess Blessed Womb]

[#00001001 - Insatiable Pregnant Queen System]

[#00001010 - Supreme Fertile Vessel]

[#00001011 - Monster-Girl Birthing System]

As she continued scrolling, the names started to lose their usual elegant system style. The text grew messier, some letters were jumbled or corrupted, and the suggestions became cruder and more unhinged.

Then, the list became almost unreadable.

Until she reached the very last entry.

[#01000101 - Thousand ???? ???? babies]

Kaho blinked, squinting at the screen. The font was so broken that she could barely make out the full sentence. It looked like the system had given up on even pretending to be proper.

She felt her face burning with embarrassment.

"W-why... why are they getting so weird...?" she whispered, voice barely audible.

Shin noticed her reaction immediately, raising an eyebrow. "What is it?" he asked, his voice calm but curious.

Kaho fidgeted, clearly embarrassed, her gaze dropping as she struggled to say it out loud. Eva, on the other hand, leaned in slightly.

"Come on, tell us," she whispered in her ear.

Looking down, Kaho finally told them the safest name. "It’s called... Perfect Mother System..."

"Yes, but it also has other designations." Unfortunately for Kaho, Lilel had also read all of that. And she told them all the names.

Eva’s smile widened in amusement. "A breedable mother system, huh?" she repeated, clearly entertained. Kaho’s face turned even redder.

Her eyes darted between Kaho and Shin. "Don’t worry, I can let you be the second mother in the harem. So how many kids will you have... a thousand?" Eva joked.

Meanwhile, Kaho looked down, her whole body burning. The idea put a small smile on her face, but she simply couldn’t speak about it while looking Shin straight in the face.

"Right now it would be a bit too much..." the shy girl squeezed the words out, while she curled more and more into a ball.

"Don’t worry," Eva hugged her again. She knew sex would be a bit too much for her best friend for now. "You can go at your own pace."

Shin, meanwhile, had gone quiet. His mind was already analyzing what he had just heard. A system like that wasn’t something he had ever seen before. Not in the game, not in any variation or hidden content.

Just like Lilel, it was an unknown variable.

"Check what it actually does," he said, his tone steady.

Kaho nodded, pulling herself together as she focused again. With Lilel guiding her, she started navigating the chaotic space.

She and Lilel came up with commands to test, but the system either ignored her or responded with broken fragments that made even less sense.

"Is something wrong?" Shin asked, noticing they were taking a while.

"Shut up, I need to concentrate," Lilel snapped.

"My system is... complicated," Kaho explained in a worried tone. "I’m sorry, but I’ll do my best to figure things out. Could you give us a minute?"

Shin shrugged. It was frustrating, but he had to admit he was completely useless in this situation. So he remained silent, letting them work. Eva did the same.

"Let’s try directly finding the archive where your powers’ descriptions are stored," Lilel suggested.

Kaho thought for a second, then adjusted her approach. [Access root directory.] she typed into the interface.

Nothing happened.

She frowned slightly and tried again, altering the phrasing. [Open root.] Still nothing. [Root access.] No response. A few more variations followed, each one slightly different, each one failing just the same.

And finally, after multiple attempts, they got some reaction after going with: [List /root]

Multiple lines of text began to appear, flickering into existence as the system struggled to respond, as if it was trying to load something.

And finally they got their answer:

{root//error//redirect...}

The response was clearly damaged, but it was a response. Kaho tested a few commands, after finally getting another response with:

[List structures]

This time, the reaction was stronger. The space trembled as clusters of words shifted, grouping themselves loosely into categories.

Most of them were broken, their "names" partially erased or replaced with symbols, but the structure behind them was still there.

"I’m beginning to get it!" Lilel said with an excited voice. "Let me take control, I will try to brute force our way into the archives we need."

"Okay," Kaho nodded.

She felt a sharp flicker of pain as Lilel suddenly shone brightly and disappeared. The little fairy ’entered’ Kaho, reappearing within her interface as a small pixel-art figure.

And she soon began typing thousands of commands.

[Scan stable_nodes]

[Map structure --partial]

[Ignore corrupted_blocks=true]

Kaho soon couldn’t read it all anymore. Then, lines exploded across the interface, and another error happened.

’Fuck! Don’t fall apart on me now...’ Lilel’s complaint was represented by a text bubble.

[Trace pathways]

[Link orphan_nodes]

[Bypass permission_layer]

The little fairy tried to find another way in. She needed a path with intact indexing. It felt like navigating a densely packed city with no signs, where most streets ended in dead ends or collapsed without warning.

[Lift restrictions --temp]

[Access deep_layer_01]

’There it is...’ Lilel celebrated.

[Access node_01]

[/Open Central Archives]

For the first time, the system actually behaved like something functional.

Directories unfolded in front of them. There were thousands of archives to sift through, far too many for Kaho to explore on her own.

"I’m counting on you. See if you can find something useful," Kaho said to the little fairy.

Lilel didn’t need to be told twice. She eagerly began scanning everything, trying to make sense of the mess. From what she could tell, they had reached something close to the system’s base code.

It might not be the foundation of all systems, but for Kaho’s system, this seemed to be the deepest layer possible.

However, all she got was... {corrupted archives}.

She found a folder with all the information they could ever need. There were directories containing every future mission her system would receive, all the possible skills she could unlock, everything.

If Lilel could access this same layer in another person’s system, she could theoretically max them out with a single command.

However, with Kaho, she couldn’t do a single thing. Everywhere she looked, all she found were corrupted text archives that simply wouldn’t open or respond.

"I’m sorry..." Lilel said as she exited Kaho’s interface. "I couldn’t find anything. It’s likely you don’t have any usable skills for now..."

"Wait... what?" Shin asked in shock. "How is that even possible?"

"My system is corrupted," Kaho said quietly. "To put it simply... I think it’s broken. I can’t use it."

Lilel clicked her tongue, clearly frustrated. "Not just corrupted," she said. "It’s like the core data is still there, but the system can’t read it. It’s as if Kaho’s powers are somehow incompatible with the system itself."

Shin thought about it for a moment as Lilel explained everything she had discovered. It was actually a massive step forward in their understanding, but there was one thing that worried him.

"Do you think she’ll be called to the Tower?" he asked.

"Yes," Lilel replied in a solemn tone. "It’s inevitable. She’ll participate in the test with you."

"Hey! Why do you two sound like Kaho entering the Tower is something terrible?" Eva asked, clearly worried.

"Oh... I haven’t explained everything yet..." Shin rubbed the back of his head. Kaho was in real danger. "The first thing the chosen ones go through when they enter the Tower is a series of tests... and many die during them."

This was kept secret from people outside the Tower, but that was the brutal reality.
