I, the slave boy, awaken with the most potent seed!!

High compatibility without the XX virus can facilitate other benefits, but it does not enable the acquisition of abilities.]

Zafron nodded slowly, trying to piece together this new information. \'So, I could potentially have a strong connection with someone, but without that virus, I can\'t copy their abilities? That seems... arbitrary.\'

"Is there any way to increase compatibility with someone who has the XX virus?" he asked.

[Yes, my lord. Prolonged exposure and interaction can gradually increase compatibility. Think of it as a talking stage. Getting to know the subject and making your presence felt in subject\'s life could help. However, the process is often slow and unpredictable.]

\'Great,\' Zafron thought sarcastically. \'So I\'ve stumbled upon this incredible ability, but it comes with all these caveats and complications.\'

A new thought struck him. "Aurelia, you mentioned that the XX virus enhances women\'s abilities. Does that mean Cassandra\'s slime magic is a result of the virus, or did she have that power before?"

[I\'m afraid I don\'t have enough information about Cassandra\'s specific case to answer that definitively, my lord. The XX virus can enhance existing abilities or potentially unlock latent ones.]

Zafron flopped back onto his bed, his mind swirling with questions. \'This is all so complex. And potentially dangerous. If this information isn\'t widely known, what would happen if it got out? And what are the implications for me, now that I know about it?\'

He sat up again, a sudden urgency in his voice. "Aurelia, how secure is this information? Who else knows about the XX virus and my ability to copy powers?"

[The information is highly secure, my lord. Only you and the system have access to this knowledge. It\'s not stored in any external database that could be compromised.]

Zafron let out a sigh of relief, but tension still knotted his shoulders. \'At least that\'s something. But it also means I\'m alone in dealing with this. I can\'t exactly ask Matilda or Mara about it without revealing everything.\'

As the weight of his newfound knowledge settled over him, Zafron felt a mix of excitement and trepidation. The possibilities were tantalizing, but the responsibilities and potential dangers were equally daunting.

"Thank you, Aurelia," he said finally. "That will be all for now."

As Aurelia\'s form faded away, Zafron lay in the darkness, his mind racing. \'What do I do with this information? Should I actively seek out people with the XX virus?\'

\'Although when I think about it, the chances of meeting another person with the virus could be slim. After all, encountering Cassandra was purely by chance. It would likely be easier to find a job than to stumble upon someone with the XX virus. For now, my focus should be on Cassandra Beaumont, who I\'ve confirmed has the virus. That means my next move is clear: I need to pursue her,\'

\'It\'s not just about enhancing my potency. Seeing how she handled those men in the alley with her slime made me realize that a combat-related ability could be extremely valuable. If I had her slime abilities when I first encountered Gustavo, things might have turned out very differently. I was essentially a sitting duck during that fight.

I can\'t continue like this; I need to gain every advantage possible,\'

Zafron sat back, determined to fully understand his new capabilities. "System, display my profile."

The familiar screen flickered to life before him, showcasing his attributes.

As he reviewed the information, he muttered to himself, "My physical stats have improved, but after today\'s events, it\'s clear I need to be even stronger. If I keep facing enemies like that, I\'ll need to upgrade my physical stats significantly. There\'s no guarantee I\'ll always have someone to help me out."

Turning his thoughts to Aurelia, he spoke up, "Aurelia, is there a way to upgrade my physical stats other than through intimate encounters? I need a more practical method to enhance my strength, endurance, and agility."

Aurelia materialized in response to Zafron\'s query.

[My lord, physical attribute enhancement can be achieved through several methods beyond intimate encounters. One effective approach is engaging in daily quests designed to challenge and develop your physical prowess. These quests can be tailored to target specific attributes such as strength, endurance, and agility.]

[These quests will provide you with experience points that contribute to the improvement of your physical attributes over time. Engaging in these activities regularly will help you achieve a more balanced and robust physical profile.]

[Would you like to include a daily quest to your quest board? These quests will update every day, providing you with tasks designed to help improve your physical attributes and overall abilities. Each quest will offer specific challenges that contribute to your growth.]

Zafron considered the offer for a second. Perhaps this was his way to increasing his stats without constantly needing to lay the pipe down on a woman. "Yes, that sounds like a good plan. I\'ll take the daily quests."

[Understood, my lord. I will now add a daily quest to your board. You will receive new quests each day, and you can track your progress and completion.]

The system screen updated, reflecting the new daily quest feature. Zafron nodded in satisfaction. "Thanks, Aurelia. This should help me stay on track."

[You\'re welcome, my lord. Should you need further assistance or information, do not hesitate to ask,"

As the night deepened, Zafron decided to settle into bed, the day\'s events swirling in his mind. He pulled the covers over himself. Despite his weariness, his thoughts remained sharp, reflecting on the new information and quests that awaited him.

Meanwhile, across town in Drakoria, Cassandra lay in her bed, her breathing heavy and ragged. Beads of sweat glistened on her forehead as she tossed and turned. She grinded her waist below the blanket.

"Mmmmphh~"

Her mind was flooded with images of Zafron, his face vivid in her thoughts. Her body reacted to the lingering sensations, and she moaned softly, the sound escaping her lips in a whisper.

The room was quiet except for the soft rustle of the sheets and her labored breaths. Cassandra\'s fingers traced the contours of her damp skin as she envisioned the man she met today doing unholy things to her. No longer was her imaginary man faceless. He now has a face. Zafron\'s face.
