A mercenary's defective romance system binds him to a lethal mutant, turning intimacy into the wasteland's ultimate survival currency.
Ethan scrapes by as a mercenary until a glitched Love System activates, designating Emily — an SSS-rank mutant who could dismantle him barehanded — as its sole target. The system translates physical milestones into scarce commodities: a handshake produces fresh meat, a kiss yields a vital vaccine, and deepening affection unlocks a genetic evolution serum granting access to every resource class while rivals stay locked to single abilities. As Emily's feral instincts warp into possessive devotion, Ethan leverages the bond to climb from scavenger to contender for wasteland dominance.
