I Don’t Want to Be Turned Into the Female Protagonist by the System

Su Qi, realizing the system was angry, didn’t dare tease it anymore.

After all, he was the one who wronged it first.

At the same time, he also saw that this system was great in every way, except when it came to money—it was a stingy owner.

After a moment, the system spoke first: “Host, if the photos this time get a good response, it might attract more players to come purchase, promoting a positive cycle.”

Su Qi retorted: “What you said makes sense, but what am I selling? Is it a product? It’s a virtual game.”

Not only a game, but an H-game at that.

Are you sure I’ll really make money if I become famous? I always feel like the police officers are waving at me, so scary!

On the other side, the system was still painting a rosy picture for Su Qi:

“You see, host, if you really sell 10,000 copies of the game, wouldn’t that mean you can livestream? The protagonist in the transformation novel you read yesterday was wildly raking in cash through livestreaming, earning millions per month is not a dream.”

Su Qi extracted the keywords from the system’s words: “You actually read books like me too? Then look at his system, and look at you. In the middle of the night, a bottle of wine in your left hand, a cigarette in your right, taking two sips of wine and two puffs of smoke, ask yourself, doesn’t your conscience hurt?” As he spoke, Su Qi took out his phone and pointed at the balance.

System: “Host, I am an independent female protagonist system individual. Secondly, I have no heart, nor mouth. Lastly, let me remind the host that smoking is harmful to health. And she also has ability, very skilled at making clothes.”

Ignoring the system’s retort, Su Qi continued:

“Not even considering whether the police will find me or not, even if I livestream, I don’t have any talents. I write a bunch of messy code and draw 18+ stuff. Are you sure people will love to watch and websites will broadcast it? Plus with my introverted personality, if you really make me sit alone in front of the screen, I think I’ll be awkwarded to death!”

System: He makes a good point, I have no words to refute.

Not hearing a response from the system, Su Qi began to examine the few props that were just issued.

Only after getting them in hand did he feel they were even more shoddy. Besides the magic staff that looked to be worth a few hundred, the remaining four items always gave Su Qi the feeling of paying an IQ tax.

Laying the yoga mat on the ground, his exquisite fair little feet stepped onto the purple mat. Soft and even slightly warm, it felt very comfortable. If he had to describe this feeling, it would be the sensation of stepping on poop.

Stepping his other little foot down, he hopped a few times without making a sound. The soundproofing was excellent.

And the purple color made his pair of little feet look even more delicate and dainty. If one only looked at these feet, Su Qi felt the person must be a cute little loli cherished by her father.

If it was his previous self, he never would have imagined in his wildest dreams that he would grow them on his own legs! And with such tiny feet, could he really walk steadily? Su Qi always had a fear that when walking, these glass-like feet would shatter.

The height-increasing insoles, Su Qi set aside for now. Why? Of course because his shoes didn’t fit. Size 42 shoes for his current little feet could be considered boating.

And now the system wouldn’t let Su Qi purchase clothing items, which also included options like shoes and underwear, so he could only shelve it.

But Su Qi had looked into it before. When trying on clothes, shoes would be provided for free, so he would just use them when the time came!

The soft sword looked very hard, but upon touching anything, it would soften like a ball of slime, very squishy. This technology was a few points stronger than the formless soft fixatives on the market.

Lastly was that secret manual, Mastery of Flowery Swordsmanship, looking tattered. Su Qi opened to the first page and felt like a large amount of information was forcefully stuffed into his mind. He only felt someone’s silhouette dancing with a sword in front of his eyes.

His hands and feet uncontrollably picked up the soft sword beside him and began dancing on the yoga mat in proper form.

Su Qi: ??

Two hours later, a sweat-drenched Su Qi plopped down on the yoga mat in a duck-sitting posture, panting heavily. His dainty tongue also greedily stuck out the corner of his mouth, hungrily inhaling the oxygen in the air. Both cheeks were flushed red, even his delicate earlobes were tinted pink, looking ripe for the picking. Seeing himself in the mirror, even Su Qi felt the urge to pounce.

This was a bit seductive!

At this time, the effects of his fragrance emerged. There was no sweaty odor, only his body’s faint scent becoming more aggressive.

Wanting to flip over, Su Qi’s knees buckled due to long lack of exercise. His whole body directly flopped onto the yoga mat. Then he actually fell asleep!

Before sleeping, Su Qi only had one thought: Am I this weak?

Waking up, it was already midnight. Without turning on the lights, he couldn’t see his hand in front of his face, completely in darkness. He couldn’t see anything.

That’s not right. Usually when going to the bathroom at night, even without turning on the lights, he could still see! But now it felt like, it felt like… he was blind??

Su Qi: “System, system, what’s going on?”

Su Qi opened his hands, trying to feel for the light switch in the room. But unable to see the way, he actually kicked the coffee table with his foot, and it was his little toe.

That sour feeling, although Su Qi had done this kind of thing before, perhaps because his feet had shrunk, this time it really hurt.

Squatting down and hugging his little foot, he rolled around four or five times before it eased up a bit. Thinking of his pair of dainty little feet, if they got bruised from the collision, Su Qi felt it would be a pity.

At this time, the system’s voice finally came: “Host, what’s the matter?”

For some reason, hearing the system’s voice that always lacked intonation, he actually felt this guy seemed to have just woken up from sleep. So he asked: “Were you just sleeping?”

“How could that be, haha, how could a system possibly need to sleep!” Faced with the system’s act of this place has no silver, especially adding a “haha” interjection, Su Qi felt he had cracked the case. 1
TN: Idiom meaning someone giving themselves away by conspicuously protesting their innocence when not accused of anything.

But the most pressing matter was asking why he had gone blind.

“What’s wrong with my eyes?”

The system thought for a bit and replied: “Because the host fell asleep, I didn’t disturb you. Today’s change is the host’s eyes. The host can choose a pair of eyes from the following options. Rest assured each one will be beautiful.”

Su Qi wanted to retort, why didn’t you tell me earlier about such an important matter? But he was attracted by those pairs of eyes.

He wasn’t worried about a mismatch between the face and eyes occurring. Because in Su Qi’s definition of a female protagonist, if the female protagonist had an ordinary appearance, readers or players definitely wouldn’t buy it.

Although people always say appearance is only one aspect, in the industry Su Qi was engaged in, appearance was the primary factor, followed by personality, plot, expressions, etc.

Imagine an otherwise perfect book except for the female protagonist’s looks. Would you have the patience to look for her shining points?

So there was an industry saying that good looks could win half the battle.

Su Qi was selecting from the many eyes. Each pair of eyes also had notes underneath.

It was like a game, with attribute boosts appearing.

They were charm, intelligence, purity, frivolousness, and sensitivity.

Su Qi first eliminated all eyes with frivolousness values. After all, he was a man and didn’t want to make seductive gestures. This X-ed out more than half.

After much deliberation, Su Qi chose the Eyes of Innocence.

Eyes of Innocence: Gives you a pair of pitiful eyes like a little deer’s, greatly reducing bad people’s wicked thoughts towards you and making them want to protect you.

But it could make a very small number of people want to imprison you and dye you in their colors. Pure eyes not only make you look ignorant of worldly affairs, a cute beautiful girl, but also make your body more pure and increase sensitivity.

Purity +4, Frivolousness -1, Charm 0, Intelligence 0, Sensitivity +20%

Although there were some minor issues like increased sensitivity, Su Qi felt as long as he protected himself from being caught by males, it would be fine.

As for getting caught, Su Qi’s mission wouldn’t be short of that 20%. After all, if his female protagonist self was caught by someone…

And what satisfied Su Qi the most was that this pair of eyes didn’t increase frivolousness while also not increasing charm. This thing called charm, based on Su Qi’s gaming experience, the higher the charm, the faster the favorability rose.

Thinking of the consequences if he increased charm on top of his fragrant buff…

No words were needed.

After selecting the eyes, Su Qi’s vision was finally restored.

Limping over to the light switch, he turned on the lights and brushed the hair covering his eyes behind his head.

Looking at those eyes in the mirror, Su Qi couldn’t help but gasp.

My goodness, wasn’t this too pitiful! The large eyes were full of childlike innocence. As the eyes blinked, the swingable lashes also fluttered, making one’s heart itch.

Perhaps due to the enlarged eyes, Su Qi only felt his field of vision had broadened quite a bit. As he glanced left and right, the eyeballs also rolled around, like a fairy scattered in the mortal world, making people want to taint it, selfishly wanting to imprison him.

Su Qi’s entire aura also changed from somewhat gloomy to much more lively due to these eyes. At least he no longer looked lifeless, instead gaining a touch of spirit.

Looking at his own eyes in the mirror, Su Qi was actually reminded of a once wildly popular book. The female protagonist’s eyes were also this clear.

It was a story of happiness after an ignorant young fairy was captured by humans. That book was really good, a classic…

The system observed the host fantasizing in front of the mirror, listening to his words. Thinking of the Eyes of Innocence with +20% sensitivity that was just chosen, the system reached a conclusion. So the host still likes being a lewd female protagonist?

I understand…
