Picking up Girls With My System

Arthur lost both parents when he was a kid. That changed his life for the worse, and he always dreamt about a place where he could be happy again. It was hard to be alone in the world.

Reading was one of the things he enjoyed the most. It was a way for his mind to travel, wander, and get to know different realities than his own.

One day, after finishing his daily reading session and going to bed, something extraordinary happened. Arthur closed his eyes, and everything around him was dark. A strange force was pulling his body towards a speck of light in the distance. Arthur was afraid that maybe he was dying in his sleep, as it looked a lot like how people described their near death experiences.

But, he still followed it nonetheless. Arthur had nothing attaching him to the world. Whatever the light brought was worth it for him. As he got closer to it, Arthur could hear some voices. Everything felt so real, unlike the dreams he used to have.

Arthur saw through the light. It was a hole that led to another place, like a portal. When he saw that, all of the stories he read came to mind. Maybe he also would be someone transported to another world through mysterious means.

The force got stronger as Arthur got closer to the portal. Once he was close enough, it became unbearable for him to withstand. Arthur flew through the portal, arriving at a new world.

Arthur had no idea what this new world would bring him, but one thing he knew, his arrival could not become better. He landed on two mountain peaks, soft, warm, and with a smell that would drive any man insane.

At first, he could not understand where he was due to the impact of the landing. But once he did, Arthur grabbed the opportunity to stay there as long as possible.

“Jane, what is the meaning of this?” a woman said.

“I-I don’t know, teacher,” Jane said with red cheeks. She was the one beneath Arthur.

“I tried my best to use the familiar spell to summon one. Maybe this is the familiar?” Jane said.

Marget, the president of Frostpeak Magic Academy, could not understand what had happened. All familiars came from the dream world, and only beasts survived in that place. A human could not live there, and in fact, no human managed to enter there in the first place.

.

“But this is impossible,” Marget said.

“Jane, look if you two have the bonding mark.”

Arthur listened to everything carefully, trying to gasp more about the situation he was in.

“This world has magic. Probably it’s like a medieval world. I’m inside an academy that teaches magic, and someone summoned me as a familiar. Humans are not familiars, so maybe I’m special?” Arthur thought.

The thought of it made his body shiver in excitement. A new world meant new possibilities to be happy. And, for what he understood, he and that good-looking lady were bound, which was something he would enjoy.

Jane had a perfect body, and her hair color was something unique. Purple. She wore a school uniform, a basic shirt, and a skirt. But Jane also had a long cape, which reminded Arthur of the wizards he read about in books.

Arthur was not that far from her based on looks. He was a bit skinny, but tall, around 1,86m. His hair was pitch black, and his eyes of the same color.

“Hello. Can you understand me?” Jane said.

Arthur finally realized that they were not speaking English but a completely different language. And he could somehow understand everything clearly.

“I can, yes,” Arthur said.

The president and all the other students watching the scene had surprised looks. A human couldn’t appear from the dream world, and it was a human capable of understanding them.

Jane was also surprised, and she said, “do you see this mark? Could you see if you have one too?”

It was a mark made of runes. Arthur scanned his own body to see if he had something similar to that, and he did. He had it in his hand.

“Do you see this, Marget?” Jane said.

“Of course. It seems that you two are indeed master and familiar. But, we still have to study how a human came from the dream world. So, the semester will continue, and we will watch this familiar closely,” Marget said as she left.

All of the students also left to do their things. But, before leaving, they all gazed strangely at Arthur.

“Could you please get up?” Jane said.

Arthur, who was in the middle of two mountain peaks, said, “oh, right. Sorry.”

“This place is called Frostpeak Magic Academy. It is a place that teaches magic, and only women are accepted here. We all live in The Kingdom of Doressea. It is one of the Four Kingdoms.” Jane explained everything as she showed Arthur the academy.

The place was huge and had many students. It had classrooms, towers, libraries, and a place to plant magic herbs. It even had a forest of its own in the academy limits. It was bigger than the schools Arthur had in his old world.

Arthur saw how other students passed by with their familiars. Most of them were monsters Arthur had never seen. They were ugly, and it seemed that all of them were also dumb.

“All wizards always have their familiars at their side? Does this mean I’ll be able to attend class with you?” Arthur said.

It all felt like a dream, and he could not believe that his luck had been this good.

Jane was taken aback by this sudden question, and she said, “I guess. But I’m not sure if you’ll be able to learn magic. Not all humans have the talent to do so.”

The thought of having zero talent for magic crossed Arthur’s mind. That would be the worst thing to happen. This world was different due to magic. How could he not learn it?

Frostpeak Magic Academy was so big that Jane did not have the time to show all of it. They explored some places, and she showed Arthur where they would be sleeping. The academy had three buildings where students slept. Why three? The academy’s course had three years, and these buildings separated the students according to their years.

Jane, for example, was a rookie. She had a great talent for magic, but she still was starting her journey.

The dormitory was somewhat crowded. It was not night yet, but the classes for the day had finished, and some students did not like to go out. Jane’s room was on the sixth floor, and as they did not have an elevator, Arthur had to use the stairs.

“I know it is not the most luxurious, but it’s a good place,” Jane said. Maybe it was not luxurious by Jane’s standards, but Arthur thought that the place was almost like a palace. It was impossible to compare that place to his tiny old apartment.

The room had a king-sized bed, a bathroom, and a kitchen. The kitchen did not get Arthur’s attention, as it only had some balconies. The bathroom, on the other hand, had a hot tub.

“There’s only one bed. I’ll talk to the president to provide us with another one. Don’t worry about it,” Jane said.

“I’m not worried. Only one bed would be the best…” Arthur said.

“Yeah, I know, but we,” Jane stopped talking, “what did you say?”

“Nothing. What did you hear?”

“Anyway, I’ll talk to Marget about this. You can stay here or wander around if you want.”

“Okay. Stay safe, Jane.”

“Bye,”

She left to take care of the bed problem. Arthur thought about exploring more of the area, but something else stopped his tracks.

[Name: Arthur Willians(RANK F)

[Level: 1]

“This is like an RPG. But where are my experience points? How can I level up? And why I don’t have mana? Doesn’t that mean I can use magic?”

After that, another notification popped up in front of his eyes.

[Unique Skills]

[Dream Realm Absorption]: You’re a remnant from the mythical Dream Realm. You can’t regenerate mana outside the Dream Realm, but you can absorb mana.]

[Dream Realm Bestial Evolution]: All of the Dream Realm beasts evolve through generations. It’s how they grow stronger. You can earn experience points by having sex with others. Don’t worry, you can’t have babies with humans.]

Arthur stayed frozen for some time. This system was too good to be true. He knew that this world was magical, and he had a skill that could absorb mana. Doesn’t that mean spells are useless against him?

And, if that was not good enough, he could become strong by having sex. Frostpeak Magic Academy was a place only women entered. It was the perfect place for him to level up.

“This is a heavenly place for me. I’m already good-looking, and now I’ll also get strong enough to face anyone,” Arthur thought.

Arthur got out of his room with another plan in mind. He had to conquer all of the beauties inside the academy.

“Maybe I can find the first one tonight?”
