The Beauty Collector

Week later

At Zeno's apartment in the morning, Zeno could be seen doing his illustrator job as he drew a character design of various female characters for some well-known novels on his PC, and in the background, Leila in a traditional maid outfit is vacuuming the room diligently.

In the past week, Leila was able to get used to her maid role in no time even though she needed him to teach her some common household chores that she was clueless about in the first few days. She was so cluelessly cute that Zeno had to punish her with a hug and head pat.

"Oh, that's right! Today is the day I can draw a Gacha again."

Suddenly Zeno paused his work and remembered that it had been one week already since the time he had drawn the Gacha. He stands up with great anticipation and quickly draws the weekly Gacha from his system.

"Yo system do your thing!"

[ Rolling... ]

[ Congratulations! ]

[ You got Super Symbiote Suit! ]

Intrigued by the name, he immediately put out a black choker from the system inventory and observed it with curiosity. It was warm and smooth in his hand but not different than a normal piece of cloth. He is not quite sure if this is the same Symbiote from Marvel as he thought.

"How should I put it on?"

He was perplexed as he tried to stretch the choker which ended up stretching like a rubber. He then wears it on his neck before suddenly he feels a connection to the choker and how to operate it as well as its abilities.

"Awesome!"

He was excited as this Super Symbiote Suit would grant the wearer all of its Symbiote abilities just without its weaknesses and extra ego. The suit will also amplify the wearer's physical abilities by ten times.

"What's the matter, Master?"

Leila who sees her master getting excited all of a sudden asks with curiosity as she turns off the vacuum machine and walks up to him. She wonders if he has finished his work.

"Oh, Leila, I just gained a powerful bodysuit to use in combat."

He turned to her and answered with excitement still on his face before his body was suddenly covered in a black tar-like substance leaving only his head and turning into a form-fitting black bodysuit that accentuated his powerful masculine form. Zeno felt an overwhelming rush of power coursing through his veins. His muscles bulged out a bit, and his strength increased greatly.

Leila was surprised by the sudden transformation and a bit aroused by his powerful presence in a form-fitting bodysuit.

"Wow, Master! You look incredible!"

She admired his new form, her cheeks flushing slightly at the sight of the big bulge on his crotch since it was form-fitting. Zeno grinned at his strengthened body, feeling more powerful than ever before. With a suggestive smirk, Zeno held out his hand to Leila.

"Come here, Leila. It's time for a little test run with my new suit."

She was delighted and eagerly took his hand, her heart racing in anticipation. Zeno then leads Leila to the bed where they engage in an intense lewd session as he fills her up nicely until she is exhausted and falls asleep.

He glances down at the sleeping maid under him with a wry smile as he kisses her lips before he goes outside to test his SS suit.

÷×÷×÷

In one of the many abandoned buildings of Kuoh Town at night, a bald woman with a creepy expression on her face and long pointy ears was dragging an unconscious man by his leg to the center of the building.

This woman is a stray devil who has been searching around for food in the dark alleys and luckily finds the delicious-looking prey in the form of a drunken salaryman whom she found sleeping carelessly on the street.

As she drags him along the floor, the man groggily starts to stir. The stray devil smirks hideously and transforms into her true form which has elongated limbs, a devilish face with wide mouth, sharp teeth, and long claws. The stray devil growls lowly as she leans over the man, her foot ruthlessly stomping on his head rendering him unconscious again. She doesn't like to eat a struggle prey after all.

Suddenly, a footsteps sound resounded inside the building, alarming the stray devil. Confused, she looks around, wondering where the sound is coming from since she not seeing anyone. Then suddenly the stray devil felt a strong grip on her neck that almost crushed her windpipe and then she got lifted off the ground with her elongated limbs flailing around in panic.

She tried to free herself but it was futile as a tall and muscular black humanoid creature with strange white marks around its eyes and no other features on its face revealed itself behind her.

The creature was Zeno who wearing a full-body SS suit. He discovers the woman who dragging a man in a dark alley by coincidence when he is testing his suit on top of a random building and decides to follow them stealthily as his suit blends in with the surroundings and becomes invisible.

When he saw what was happening he quickly connected the dot and deliberately walked up behind the stray devil with loud footsteps, distracting her from her prey. When he got behind her he simply lifted her off the ground by the neck with his hand.

"What do we have here?"

He said with a deep distorted voice thanks to the suit that marked his original voice. The stray devil, sensing the immense power emanating from Zeno, struggles to free herself but is unable to break free from his grip. Her eyes widen in fear as she realizes she's outmatched.

"Who...?"

She asks, her voice trembling. He was too lazy to think about his alias so he decided to just use his surname as the area on his mouth rips apart revealing a terrifying maw with razor-sharp fangs and a long slimy tongue.

"I am The Zavior!"

He said in a deep distorted voice before crushing the stray devil's neck like an aluminum can. Zeno watched as the stray devil's lifeless body hung limply in his hand. He then brings her head to his maw and opens it before he devours her head in one bite and then shoves the rest of the body in his maw which unhinged like a snake and swallows the body whole.

After that, his maw fuses shut and disappears, he then turns his attention to the man who is still unconscious on the floor with a nosebleed and broken nose. With a quick motion, Zeno picks up the man and easily carries him on his shoulder. He then brought him to a park nearby and laid him down on a bench before going away.

As Zeno disappears into the night, the man begins to stir. He groggily opens his eyes and finds himself in a park. Confused and disoriented with a massive headache and broken nose, he cursed out loud as he got up not knowing that he almost died earlier.

÷×÷×÷

Zeno felt a surge of demonic energy inside his body as his SS suit finished extracting and integrating the stray devil's genome into his own as well as some of the common devil's abilities but not their weaknesses.

He was back in his apartment an hour ago and currently lying on the bed as a naked Leila snuggles in his arm. Zeno felt lucky today as a smile spread across his face. He gazed down at the sleeping Leila, her head resting against his chest and her limbs warping around his. They had done it again after he came back.

He couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction from the power he had gained from the stray devil he found by coincidence and the good performance of his SS suit.

Zeno thought about what he could do with his newfound power. A devil's demonic energy can be used to cast a spell based on the user's imagination or so he remembered from this world setting. He doubts it will be that easy though since the spell will probably drain a lot of energy. Zeno decided to test it and conjure up a small droplet of water at the tip of his finger. He focuses on his demonic energy, feeling it surging through his veins toward the tip of his finger as the tiny magic circle materializes before the water droplet appears on the tip of his finger.

He releases it, watching as it flies towards the window. The water droplet hits the window and only causes a wet spot on it. Zeno couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed as the energy consumption was more than he liked for such a small amount of water. He realized that this type of magic would require a large energy and optimization magic circle to use effectively. He decided to put it aside for now and focus on Touki instead.

As Zeno's thoughts drifted towards Touki, he couldn't help but smile again. Leila had shown potential in her ability to use and cultivate superior Touki, which might make her strength reach an ultimate-class level in a couple of years.

He remembered how glad she was when she awakened her Touki as the white aura surrounded her body. She didn't want to disappoint him so she doing more than her best Zeno felt a warmth spread through his chest as he thought about Leila's dedication to him. He gently caressed her long blue hair, watching her peaceful sleeping face.

In this world, many dangers lurking in the shadows, but with his rapid growth, he was confident that he could face anything that came his way. He wonders what the system will give him next week. He looking forward to it.
