A wasteland mercenary binds his survival to a deadly mutant through a system that trades intimacy for evolution.
Mercenary Ethan survives in a ruined world until a malfunctioning Love System links his advancement to Emily, an SSS-rank mutant capable of ending him instantly. The system converts physical closeness into tangible supplies: a handshake produces fresh meat, a first kiss yields a crucial vaccine, and deepening bonds unlock a genetic evolution serum granting access to every resource category while rivals remain restricted to single abilities. As Emily's affection metrics climb, the once-feral predator begins to yield, yet her attention grows more volatile and intense. Ethan leverages this dangerous connection to climb from scavenger toward dominance over the wasteland.
