Omnipotent Husband System
Chapter 1: System Activated.

Hao Ren was coming back from a high school reunion party and he was drunk. It was not a bad reunion but for people like him these gatherings did not fare too well either. He was an epitome of average men. People who nobody would remember or miss when they were gone.

Just like at this moment, his classmates did not even notice that he took off from the gathering. They might look for him when paying the bills. Hao Ren navigated his way to the beach opposite the hotel they were gathered at.

Hao Ren decided to settle down on the cold sand as the ocean breeze brushed against his face. He raised his head to look at the sky and then he turned to check the surroundings before he spoke out loud, "Fuck you!"

It was a burst of frustration that was being silenced by the wave. Hao Ren raised a bottle of beer he had been holding and took a big sip before he yelled, "Fuck you, God of systems!"

He chugged down the contents of the bottle before he fell on his back and stared blankly at the stars. After some time he said, "I read as many novels as I could. I prayed to as many gods as I could during my teenage. Then when I thought miracles do not happen, you send me to this beautiful world. I was so happy thinking you will give me some special ability to change my average fate.

What did you give me? You gave me nothing, but a broken system. Oi! System, wake up you freeloading parasite, wake up and tell me why did the god of systems fuck me over like this?"

*Ding: Host, nobody has done anything bad to you. Also, there is not such thing as God of systems.*

Hao Ren groaned and protested, "You are a scam, alright, everyone else gets systems that make them rich and strong. What did I get? Tell me what are you."

*Ding: I am the Omnipotent Husband System. My task is to make sure that the host achieves the supreme status among husbands in the world.*

Hao Ren chuckled and asked, "What are the requirement to activate you?"

*Ding: Host should get married to trigger the system activation.*

Hao Ren was so pissed that he laughed like a maniac for a few minutes before he got tired and said, "You should have made me stronger or richer and then tasked me to get a wife. That would have been fun."

The system said, *Ding: Host is under strong influence of alcohol. It is advised that you go to sleep.*

Hao Ren vented his frustration for a long time before he passed out on the beach itself. He was not originally from this world. He was a mediocre man in his past life, and when he was on his death bed, he only wished to be successful the next time over.

When he crossed the darkness he was here, in a new world, with the same name, and the body of a newborn. He was reincarnated and transmigrated. Apart from this fact, he did not remember anything else. For all he cared it was a good thing that will not give him any distraction. However, in this life and world also, he was just a mediocre person.

Hao Ren was sixteen when he found out about the system, but there was a catch. The Omnipotent Husband System would only activate upon his marriage. Over the years, he tried many times to date women, but they all just passed him a good person card, meaning friend-zoning him.

...

The next morning, Hao Ren woke up because of his phone ringing. He was groggy and his head was aching so bad that he could not help but groan. He picked up his phone and asked, "Yes, Jin."

Jin was his best friend, who said, "Ren, did you forget the interview in Empress International?"

Hao Ren was shocked and said, "I will come right over, bring me a change of clothes. I will meet you at the complex opposite the company."

He cursed himself but quickly got up on his feet and rushed to the location. However, the curse of being average did not leave him. He did not make it to the company in time. He cursed himself for wasting ten minutes in changing clothes and brushing his teeth.

His friend had been disqualified too but that guy went to join his girlfriend's small company. Hao Ren sighed as he trotted down the sidewalk. Unknowingly, he came across the Marriage registrar building. His gaze fell over a couple walking out of the campus with big smiles on their faces. Hao Ren could not help but feel increasingly depressed by his current situation.

Just when he was about to turn around and get a taxi, someone held his hand. Turning around, Hao Ren found a beautiful woman, a kind that existed in his fantasy. However, since he already knew that such a woman was out of his league, he asked, "Is there anything you need from me?"

The lady replied in a cold manner, "Did you bring your identification card?"

Hao Ren nodded mechanically, and the woman said, "Good, would you like to marry me?"

The young man smiled and thought, 'It seems I am still in a dream on the beach.'

He could not believe what was happening. His mind was in a fluster and the only chance where such a woman would ask him to marry her, was in a dream. Thinking like this, he nodded and the woman dragged him inside the building.

Hao Ren followed the procedure happily, he clicked one single photo and then signed the forms and relevant documents easily. After everything was completed, the government official said, "Congratulations, you two are now married."

Hao Ren bowed to him in thanks before he turned to look at the lady who seemed to be thinking something. Suddenly, another official said, "Come along, the office will provide you with a complimentary commemorative photograph."

The couple walked over a black board and stood together inside the frame. The photographer said, "Come on! You two are newly married, why don't you stand closer and give us a smile."

Hao Ren looked at the lady who took half a step closer, and did the same before he turned to look at the camera with a smile on his face.

At this moment, a mechanical voice echoed in his mind, *Ding: It is detected that the host has completed the activation quest. Activating System in two hours."

Hao Ren could not believe this, he had dreamed such a thing many times, but his system would never activate, to confirm his doubts, he pinched his thigh hard and sensed the pain. A tear mixed with pain and joy formed at the corner of his eye and slowly slid down his cheek as the photographer clicked the picture.

The lady and the cameraman were surprised and the former asked in a calm manner, "Are you okay?"

Hao Ren turned to look at her and said, "This is the best moment of my life. Thank you."

He was euphoric, and his voice was so vibrant that the cameraman could not help but click another picture of the couple.
