I was your typical rich child that was spoiled and bratty.
What would you expect from a guy whose parents barely cared for?
I was born into a very rich family. Very rich, I must imply, I could get anything I want.
Literally anything.
My birthday gifts were simply cheques of a few million dollars or sometimes on special occasions like Christmas I would get yet another supercar.
Yes. I had everything that people would have to work their asses off for, just by being in a rich family.
But work was all my parents saw.
They worked and worked and worked.
They never cared for me.
They never told me they loved me, never spent more than ten minutes with me, except maybe from my birth.
But I heavily doubt so.
But I had everything, and nothing at the same time.
You may be jealous, but such materialistic items did not fill what I actually wanted.
I know that there are many people who are in worse situations than me.
I did many things to gain their attention, even tried to severely injure myself once, yet they never ever came to visit me, in my hospital ward.
But just sent me yet another Cheque.
Money was their love language to me.
Or probably they just didn't want to see me, and decided that money would keep me from bothering them.
The only text or messages I got was during special occasions like my birthday and more money.
Family love was what I wanted.
But it was too much to ask after having everything.
I was the lucky kid in everyone's eyes.
Or perhaps I just wanted what I could not have.
I had everything but love.
So I tried to escape.
To escape my reality of no one caring and loving me.
Escape in games.
The pixels on screen became my solace.
Fighting games were lackluster to me.
I could buy my way to the top.
Buying overpowered equipment that could one shot any enemy.
And the top leaderboards were just a competition of who paid more.
They were boring, I could easily win.
After all I had more than enough money by my side.
Gacha were even worse.
Every single thing could be obtained by just a swipe of a card.
A trifling amount of just tens or hundreds of thousands and I could easily become the strongest.
Why grind the game where a few bucks would have saved hours of your time?
I am a pay to win player.
Players that were hated by every single community.
Players that just swiped their way to victory.
Victory and triumph over them made me feel happy.
It gave me my escape.
That was built upon hate from others.
But they were still boring.
Boring.
But there was this game.
I would describe it as a masterpiece.
It was a legendary game.
The game
Ok it was a dating simulator.
But it was not just there.
It was notoriously hard to win over the hearts of the female heroines.
Yeah….
I am simp Kay?
Ok fine, it was not just a dating sim, it was an eroge game, and…..
It was realistic….
I mean at least I could feel love there….
Ok fine, I was horny.
Now shut the fuck up.
It was fun though.
A game that actually required time and not just money.
Dating simulators are overrated, I played them countless times.
Win over the girl's heart with gifts.
Swipe and she is yours.
But this game was different.
The heroines do not just reject you.
If you fail, you fucking die.
And then you fucking restart.
The main character eternally changes and always regenerates.
Whenever you die, the character you have is officially deleted and you get another random character with random attributes, traits, charisma and stats.
Yes, when a character dies, you can never get it back to matter what, you can only get another random character with completely different looks, skills and attributes.
You can never ever get the character back.
Which sucked if an op character died.
Characters are random and there are some that are very overpowered.
Never had I ever thought I would play a game like this.
But it was really fun.
It was a pretty popular game.
But quickly died down due to the notorious difficulty of winning over the heart of a heroine.
But I basically had no life since I did not need to work.
So…
Yeah I played the game for thousands of hours.
The thousands of hours were spent resetting the protagonist, for a perfect one, that can win over their hearts.
Then after thousands of resets I got him.
The character that was the closest from perfection.
As expected from putting in thousands of hours and resetting countless times.
Elysius Elrowich.
Prince of the empire.
First in line of succession.
Incredibly good looks.
Mind you, he had the highest charisma stat I had ever seen.
But except for one thing.
He is incredibly weak.
His strength was the lowest I have ever seen.
But not really my problem since the only use of him was to conquer the heroines I could not get.
But charisma was just one thing.
You have to type in the right words if not even the highest charisma stat could not help you.
The characters had powerful ai that would make it very fucking hard to get them.
They were very advanced and smart.
If they do not like you, you have a fucking high chance of death.
And if you wanted to marry them?
You had to research them, research what they liked, use words to win them over, and you had to give gifts according to their mood.
That was the challenge, deciphering their logical minds, using gifts to navigate moods, and leveraging noble or royal birth to avoid the untimely deaths.
All the heroines had different personalities which are distinct.
Thus I conquered only seven this round since he is very weak, and some heroines that hated the weak were nearly impossible to conquer.
Of course there were other factors.
Like being too weak to get to hell or the forest of elves to get the heroines.
So I used different characters of course.
Hard right?
A noble or royal birth was very important for the protagonist.
That meant that you would have more funds to buy items through trial and error and that they do not just kill you because of your status.
But also there are some heroines who hated nobles.
If you were a commoner they would be able to kill you without thought.
But if you had a high status they would not be able to defeat you.
Of course high strength stats and overpowered traits were very important.
I once tried that path, using overpowered characters that were stronger than the female heroines, but most of the heroines were nobles that commoners and low ranking nobles could never meet.
So I scraped that path.
That was why I used him
He looked good, and had a high status which means he could meet the otherwise unobtainable heroines.
And there I was.
Tens of thousands of hours in and I finished the fucking game.
The game showed my character overview.

But it was dismissed with a thought "Yeah right, Perma-Death, the creator must find himself funny, lol." I said softly, as I laughed at the creator of the game.
But I was still uncertain but who cares.
As I thought a system window surfaced.
"What the fuck is that shit?" I said loudly, clearly shocked and scared.
