Chapter 2: I wanted to be a fox, not a fox prisoner.

I had a dream.

I found a god-tier manga on HiXmi, busted a nut, and then the owner of that body appeared.

No, to be precise, only the voice appeared. That owner suddenly told me to become an Apostle and then stole the thing I cherished most.

The most gracious tool that allowed me to endure a pathetic and boring life without committing suicide.

The tool that allowed me to feel the greatest pleasure in the world without asking for anything in return—a tool only I could use.

Yes, I’m talking about the Baby Factory Starter(d1ck).

Or should I call it the 10-Month Period Vaccine Injector?

Anyway, it was a truly terrible nightmare.

A nightmare where I lost my most precious possession and gained the most terrible burden.

"Hehehe... Yeah, fuck... It has to be a dream... I wanted to do it with a Fox Beastkin, not become a Fox Beastkin and get done..."

I opened my eyes.

Familiar ceiling, familiar background.

Nothing seemed to have changed. Except for my vision, which had become uselessly clear.

"Did I sleep with my glasses on yesterday? Why is my vision so sharp? Wait a minute... Fuck, my voice."

A voice that was low-tone but clear, not scratchy. At the very least, this voice was not my original voice.

"You finally changed it... You damn shitty mutt..."

— To call me a mutt is far too low for My dignity. If you speak such insolent words one more time...

"What are you going to do if I speak insolently? Huh? What are you gonna do? If you want to kill me, just kill me. The joy of life is gone, so I don't feel like living anyway..."

— Are you someone with no attachment to life? But why?

"Because you took everything I had. Did you really have to take it all to feel satisfied?"

As I spoke with a hollow voice, as if I had given up on everything, the Fox God spoke to me with a voice full of worry.

— This is a big problem. Without Vitality (Energy), both you and I will perish.

"What does it matter to me if you perish or not? Wait, that’s actually great. Death as the price for making my precious junk disappear... Khh... It’s truly the perfect price."

— You are being noisy. If you continue to be uncooperative, I have my own methods.

"No, you don't. If you did, you would have done it already. Like taking over my body or forcing my body to move."

I must have hit the mark, because the existence that introduced itself as the Fox God shut its mouth and went silent.

"Hah... Fuck, I said I wanted to stick it in a Fox Beastkin. I never once thought about becoming a Fox Beastkin and getting stuck."

— ...This is all your karma for seeing My naked body. Why did you look at My naked body and... Ugh...!

"What was I supposed to do when it was so turning me on?! Hey, be honest. If there was incredibly delicious food in front of you begging 'Please eat me~', would you not eat it? Huh?"

— I have undergone training to suppress such desires. I probably would not eat it.

"Don't bullshit me. How can a mere beast overcome instinct? And you, you're wagging your tail right now, aren't you? Right?"

— Ugh...!

Hearing her groan in frustration, I sighed and spoke.

"Just show your form first. You know damn well that there’s no answer while you're hiding like this."

— ...I do not know what you might do. Therefore, I will not reveal myself.

"No, look, I need to know what kind of bitch you are to decide whether to do something or not, right? To put it bluntly, if you’re really a super hot bitch, I might feel it’s a waste to let you die and go around collecting that Vitality or whatever, don't you think?"

— Is that so? Then wait a moment. I need to prepare my heart as well.

"Tsk, you were just being shy. Fine, I'll wait, so come out slowly. I need to see my changed appearance anyway."

Confirming that the voice had gone silent, I went into the bathroom to check my transformed appearance first.

It was surely going to be a body that makes people horny, but seeing it in reality is definitely different from imagining it.

When I stood in front of the bathroom mirror, I could only stare blankly at the reflection.

I couldn't think of words to describe the woman in front of my eyes.

A beauty that shames the moon and flowers?

A beauty capable of toppling nations?

No, it’s better to just use the vulgar words I usually use.

Hard.

No, if I still had it, I would have gotten hard.

And I would have undoubtedly pounced on her without a second thought.

Even if it was on the side of the road.

Blonde hair glittering like gold.

Red eyes that looked like crafted rubies.

Beautiful skin that was like white jade but looked perfectly healthy.

Amazing milk dispensers that would slap the cheeks of most big-titty girls.

And finally... nine fluffy tails sprouting from the hips.

So erotic.

To think I would get turned on by a real 3D woman, not a 2D female character. Wait, is this something that transcends 3D?

As I was grinning while thinking this, the existence known as the Fox God spoke again.

— I-I am ready. Are you ready to see My noble body and noble face?

"...Honestly, I don't think I'll be surprised by anything now. After seeing something this erotic, if I don't see something even more beautiful, I probably won't feel anything."

— Ridiculous nonsense! Why would I be any less beautiful than you! Here, look! Behold My noble body and face! Don't faint from shock!

As she spoke, the Fox God revealed herself in the air, and the moment I saw her body and face, my jaw dropped once again.

"Foxes really are beings that bewitch people. You seem like a truly dangerous existence."

— You suddenly became calm? By the way, what kind of nonsense is that? Isn't it obvious that foxes bewitch people?

"I thought there was nothing left to surprise me, but I could still be surprised. It feels like all beauty has vanished from the rest of the world."

It was true.

Even looking back at my own body that I just checked, I didn't feel turned on at all anymore. That Fox God's appearance and body were clearly a cheat code.

"...How much did you invest in appearance customization? With that level, you could ruin a few countries."

— Fufu, I actually did ruin a country. Unfortunately, I was sealed away after ruining just one.

Feeling goosebumps at her expression of regret, I said to her.

"Fine. If the person I have to serve is this hot, maybe it’s worth listening to. That semi-realistic art earlier didn't capture even 1/100th of your sexiness."

— Still, that artist's skill was quite outstanding. In this era, no one can capture even a speck of my noble face and body.

"Stop bragging now. So, what do I have to do for you and me to survive? I heard the word 'Vitality' earlier. You aren't going to tell me to roll around with men in this body, are you?"

If she told me to do that, I'd bite my tongue and kill myself right away.

As I looked at her with that thought, she spoke to me in a gentle voice.

— There is no need to mix bodies. While achieving the harmony of Yin and Yang is the best way to absorb Vitality, it is a burdensome task for you, who was a man until just moments ago.

"Thanks for the consideration. So, is there another way to absorb it?"

— It is simple. You extract emotions related to love from others. It is much less effective than Yin-Yang union, but it will allow us to prolong our lives.

Emotions related to love...

Do I have to become an idol or something, which I was never meant for?

No, that’s impossible.

If a mere vulgar hikikomori like me did something like that outside, I'd get depression in no time.

"The more targets, the better, right? For prolonging my life, and for you, whatever you’re plotting."

— Yes. I consumed a significant amount of power appointing you as My Apostle. If you do not perform well within a week, I will likely perish.

"If you perish, do I, your Apostle, perish too?"

— Your brain works better than it looks. Yes, you will perish along with me. As if you were an existence that never existed in this world from the start.

At her chilling words, I grabbed my throbbing head and opened my mouth.

"Fuck... come to think of it, this is a massive loss. Why did I have to get tangled up with some weird minor god?"

— W-What? Minor god? Even looking like this, I am...!

"A god who will perish if they just roll around doing nothing for a week shouldn't be talking big. Meanwhile, someone here has to challenge becoming a celebrity, which wasn't even in their destiny."

I'm confused.

Starting from my body changing, to the fact that if I do nothing for a week—no, even if I do something, if there are no results—I'll be erased from the world.

Why did this happen only to me?

I just watched some super hot manga and had a normal happy time.

I can't understand it.

No, I don't want to understand it.

"Hah, I'd die before becoming an idol. I have no sense for being an entertainer or actor, and since I’m a maggot who can’t act, I wouldn't last long. An athlete... What do you expect from a hikikomori loner? Fuck."

I just hate going outside, and furthermore, I hate being active.

If I liked going out and being active, I wouldn't have lived like a maggot in this cramped one-room apartment jerking off three times a day.

So what is left?

Something I can do without leaving the house.

Yet, something where I can become sufficiently famous if given the chance.

Something where, once famous, I can make enough money just by chatting.

Internet Broadcast.

"This is it."
