LIGHTNOVELWORLD Chapter 5: Mission.
Spinning the wheel for the last time, the holographic screen turned red. Orion shivered to his core
"Why is it red, Ishita?" Orion asked, feeling a bit surprised.
{It is red because the last spin includes certain abilities that the host will use to defend himself..}
"Make sense. So, what did I receive?"
{Congratulations, you have successfully achieved Energy Drain!}
"What? Am I going to suck the life out of people?" He inquired, confused.
{You got it right, host.!!}
"Before we finish up, I've noticed that your voice seems to switch between a female and male tone.."
{Ok, I'll stick to one.}
"Yes! To become stronger, I'll have to charm some ladies. I can't wait. And darn, it's already dark. Luckily, I have some cash. I'll need to book a room in a nearby hotel. Tomorrow, I'll head back home; I can't go home with a torn shirt. She will immediately sense what happened."
Orion breathed a sigh of relief. He had lost his legs, but now he had them back, along with a system.
"Don't worry, I'm coming to get you all. This time, I won't just cripple you, but kill you all."
{I sense a desire for revenge, host. It seems you really must have hated those boys.}
"Ah, how do you know there are boys? I thought the system didn't…
{I looked at your memories, I saw how you got your ass kicked.}
The system lied.
"I see, fair point. Hmm, let me check how much I got here."
Orion removed his phone from his pocket; it had a small crack on the screen, but luckily it was still manageable.
"I've got 10 gold biocreds. 1 gold biocred will do for a night," Orion said as he began to walk.
•••••••••••••
Approaching the impressive entrance of a massive mansion, Orion noticed a holographic screen displaying the words 'The Luminous Haven'.
This renowned hotel was known for its luxurious accommodations and top-notch service. The building itself was a striking combination of glass and steel, exuding elegance and sophistication.
As Orion entered, he was greeted by a lush garden and colorful flowers, adding a touch of tranquility to the bustling city surroundings. The area was bustling with people, all drawn to the allure of this prestigious establishment. Why?
Because 'The Luminous Haven' is known for having one of the best brothels in 'Antibio Earth', attracting visitors of various races seeking pleasure or a place to rest. The establishment is renowned for its safety and quality food offerings.
Orion hoped they had a spare room for him to rest for the night as he entered through the revolving doors and was greeted by the grand lobby. The floor, polished marble, reflected the soft, ambient lighting from crystal chandeliers hanging from the high ceiling.
On his left, a peaceful fountain bubbled softly, its water shimmering in the light. The walls were adorned with beautiful art pieces and large mirrors, creating a feeling of depth and opulence.
Opulent seating areas were spread out in the lobby, featuring comfortable armchairs and sofas in deep, warm hues. Visitors chatted and unwound with beverages in hand, as employees moved elegantly, catering to their requests.
But he was aware that all eyes were on him, as his clothes were tattered and unkempt.
Orion approached the reception desk, a beautifully crafted long counter made of dark mahogany that glimmered in the light. A wall painted in soft golden tones behind the desk created a cozy atmosphere and featured the hotel's emblem, a shining sun peeking out from behind a horizon.
A young woman with long brown hair and black eyes stood behind the counter, wearing a crisp and immaculate uniform.
She had a plain glass and a mole on the side of her nose. Her gaze never left Orion, and a smug expression appeared on her face as she looked at his torn top and trousers.
Her large boobs pushed out of the white office top she was wearing. She later smiled warmly at Orion and said, "Welcome to The Luminous Haven," in a smooth and welcoming tone.
"How can I help you today?" she asked, her bright smile putting Orion at ease.
"Hello, I'm Orion and I would like to make a room reservation."
The receptionist nodded and promptly checked her computer. Just then, the phone next to her rang. Instead of a hand picking up the phone, a large tentacle reached out, grabbed it, and answered the call.
Orion was completely taken aback, despite being familiar with the Kraken from stories. However, he had never actually laid eyes on one before. Witnessing a Kraken had always been a dream of his.
The Kraken in front of him had massive boobs, larger even than those of his aunt. He let out a sigh and waited patiently for her to finish her phone call.

"What the fuck!?" Orion screamed, and a few people close to him turned towards him to see what happened. They saw nothing but a tattered man and continued with their activities.
The receptionist stared daggers at Orion, who immediately put his head down, embarrassed.
"Yes, he is here. I'll send him to the suite soon, Lady Katherine," the receptionist said over the phone.
'What the heck, Ishita.'
{Is there any issue with the host?}
"Sure, there is. How can I have a one-night stand with her? "I do not know her; I just met her," Orion mentally said, almost pleadingly.
{That is your problem, host. Failure to complete the mission will result in a punishment.}
"You…"
"Ah, yes, Mr. Orion. Your reservation is already booked. Here is your keycard for room 2222," the lady said, smiling as she passed a sleek, metallic card across the counter.
"But... I…"
{Host, you should just go along with it. Free room, there is no harm in it, right?}
"There isn't, but if they do find out, I'll pay immediately," he replied to Ishita before taking the keycard.
{Okay.}
"The elevator is on the right." She handed him a brochure.
"This contains information about our amenities, including the rooftop pool, spa, and dining options. If you need anything at all, please don't hesitate to contact the front desk."
"Thank you," Orion said, taking the brochure.
"Enjoy your stay, Mr. Orion," she replied with a warm smile. Orion walked towards the elevators.
He stepped into the elevator and pressed the button for the twenty-third floor. He couldn't help but sigh as he was tired.
•••••••
Once in his room, he wasted no time in shedding his clothes and stepping into the shower.
"Finally, some peace and relaxation after a long day," he thought as the warm water cascaded over him.
{Nice body, host. Don't you think it's the perfect time to take the Elixir, host?}
'Ahh, yes, I forgot.'
Coming out of the bathtub, he wiped his body.
"So, can I have the Elixir, Ishita?"
{Yes, host, stretch your hand forward.}
Poof~
A small, elegant silver bottle materialized in Orion's right hand. It was made of smooth, polished silver that shone brightly.
The surface was adorned with intricate patterns that sparkled and reflected light beautifully.
Upon opening the bottle, a shimmering liquid with a deep, red color was revealed. It seemed almost glowing, with iridescent specks swirling gently within.
Orion took a whiff of the fragrance, which was a delightful blend of citrus and blooming flowers. Despite his reluctance, he quickly consumed all of it.
After waiting for about Three minutes later, he examined himself in the mirror and noticed that he was still as pale as before.
"I guess it's fake then."
{◉‿◉}
After three additional minutes, Orion's stomach rumbled before his bones started to creak. He was in agony, struggling to suppress a scream. Then, the pain subsided.
Looking in the mirror, he noticed that his previously pale face had turned snow white, his once faint red eyes now a vibrant crimson, and his black hair appearing shinier, darker, and sleeker.
His abs seemed to increase a little. He smiled in satisfaction, then he looked at his dangling manhood and it increased in size.
"Oh shit," he screamed a little, looking at his manhood.
{Be happy now you got a rock, better put it into practice.}
The system said.
"Shut up," Orion said to the system, embarrassed, and immediately left the bathroom.
He immediately froze when he saw a naked woman on the bed with a cloth tied over her eyes. The sight of her pink walls caused Orion's penis to become erect.
