Title: Lord of Mysteries: Lord of Love
Description: *Blank*
—-------------------------
He woke up
"Ugh…."
Head throbbing, he instinctively reached out his hand towards his side, trying to grab at his phone and check the time-
Only to find nothing
"....."
Frowning, he opened his eyes
While his vision was blurry, he could…barely make out his surroundings
He was in an unfamiliar room
'Did I get kidnapped?'
The room was….bad. It didn't lack anything, it just seemed very behind the times
Plopping his feet on the ground, he slowly stood up
Cautiously, he reached out to the doorknob of the door-
It turned, and the door opened
'Not locked?'
It seemed whoever kidnapped him didn't do a good job at it….
His eyes darted around, taking in the sight of this 'house'
'Now…. where is the bathroom?'
…
..
.
He found it
Of course, opening every door in the house wasn't really efficient…. But he really needed to pee!
It wasn't really wasteful. It helped him get a better understanding of this house
Why was he wasting time when his potential kidnapper could potentially be searching around for him?
Simple. The house was too… primitive
Well, not exactly.
He wasn't an expert in history… But he could recognize this as a Victorian era England style of house.
The only reason he could tell is because he had visited quite a few of these historical places.... Since that era fascinated him
What really convinced him, though, was that his body was different.
His body was… shorter. And the previous marks on his hands were…. Gone.
For now, his conclusion is that he transmigrated…. Or that he became younger and was kidnapped.
For a kidnapper who has the ability to make him younger, he doesn't hold much hope of resisting.
Click
He closed the door of the bathroom.
Again, this bathroom seemed primitive. It definitely wasn't a bathroom of the 21st century
Thankfully, it had a mirror
"Huh….."
Looking at his reflection, what greeted him was the puzzled face of a 16-year-old
The boy had blonde hair, blue eyes, and could already be considered handsome
He brought a hand up, touching his face in amazement.
The reflection mimicked him
But he noticed something-
There was something inside him… that he could call upon
At this point, he couldn't be bothered to care. He risked it.
His appearance had changed.
It was amazing. But he wasn't sure if he actually transmigrated… and if he actually did… What world did he transmigrate to?
Was it a fictional one he once knew? Or one entirely unknown? Maybe just a parallel world?
He couldn't be bothered to care. His situation is dire.
He doesn't have the memories of this body, he doesn't know anything about this world.
And the potential friends or family of this body would surely notice something wrong
So-
He called upon this…thing. It was the only thing he could do in this situation. It might be his cheat, or it might be something dangerous
[Get Creative]
"....."
He touched the mirror, eyes dazed.
Indeed
It was a cheat
…
..
.
He sat back on his bed, starting to examine his 'cheat'
[Get Creative], the particular cheat ability of a protagonist from a harem anime
It could use Life points- LP for short- to create any skill imaginable. Different skills require marginally different LP costs to create
These points were generated by fulfilling the desires of the skill holder
His eyes turned
[LP: 10000]
Where did these points come from?
Perhaps from this body? After all, life points- it sounds like something that is tied to life.
And the body is..... life?
….He doesn't know what he is talking about. But he doubts that these points followed him from his previous life/body
Regardless-
What skill should he create?
A skill to generate more LP?
He would do that… If he wasn't actually unaware of the world he found himself in.
He needs to know about his current situation before actually spending these valuable points.
Standing up once again, he went towards the window.
Grasping the curtains, he exerted strength to open them.
He needs to know the current time. He couldn't find a clock in his room, and he didn't really have a phone to tell the time.
Swish
He pulled them open-
And crimson moonlight poured into his room
Eyes widening, his hands trembled
'Please don't….'
Praying in his mind, his gaze turned to the moon
'I'm fucked'
He stopped himself
Thoughts blanking out, he tried to stop himself from thinking of the most dangerous possibility-
Heart beating erratically, his hands trembled more intensely-
He brought his palm to the window, tracing a vague outline
The crimson moon seemed to boil, gathering together-
'KianaI'mAtomicSasukeNarutoBleackOnePieceShadowSubarashiPainEsdeathOverlodAlbedoPeStigmaWinOverdoseSexDrugsReproduction-'
Random thoughts spilled in his head, his attention splitting as he barely managed to use his new ability
[Get Creative]
'OliviaEmmaLPCreativeCreateEditBestowMemoryAlterationSealSealSealSealSealSealSealSeal-'
Spots of silver appeared on the normally crimson moon, as if an entity was coalescing the red tide that was enveloping the satellite
[Memory Seal]
[LP: 1000]
'MysteryEnemyStarCthulhuEldritchCosmos-'
The distant planets twinkled, as if coming alive-
-He felt his memory getting sealed, losing all access to it-
Plop
He dropped to the ground, his back hitting the floor as his random thoughts finally stopped
"Fortunately…I sealed it…."
Even though his back was painful, he still let out a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he managed to create a skill to seal his memory of these terrifying beings
No, he wasn't sure that he was in the Lord of Mysteries universe.
However, when he saw crimson moonlight, his head instinctively thought of that.
Question: What do you think of when you have recently finished reading Lord of Mysteries and Circle of Inevitability, and see crimson moonlight?
Obviously, one thinks of why the moon is crimson, and more specifically, about who made the crimson moon like that
In fact, it was so difficult not to think of "It", that he had to think a bunch of incoherent random stuff to preoccupy his mind to give himself enough time to seal his memories
"The more you know, the easier it is to get corrupted"
He muttered, finally standing up
In fact, he still isn't sure if he transmigrated into the Lord of Mysteries universe.
But…. Just to be sure, he sealed every memory of Eldritch beings and their names.
No matter if they were from H.P lovecraft, or if they were from other pieces of fiction.
And he sealed his memory of everyone and everything that would know of him if he knew about them.
"Phew…"
He breathed a sigh of relief, lying on his bed yet again
He hopes that, after he sleeps, he will wake up back in his own world.
It was unlikely, but he still had the hope of all of this being a dream
"..."
If it isn't a dream… Hopefully, no 'being' from the starry night noticed him
…
..
.
Dazedly, he opened his eyes
Gideon Moore
Yes, that was the name of his current body
'All of that wasn't a dream….And indeed…. I'm in the world of Lotm'
While sleeping, he dreamed of the memories of his current body.
It was like watching a movie.
He stood like a spectator, watching the life of Gideon Moore up until last night
His family was average, neither poor, nor rich.
They had a nice house in Backlund, and hired a small number of servants to take care of the chores
….Until….His parents died
"....."
He was silent.
Since he had been given compensation in hundreds of pounds…. The parents of this body probably died because of a Beyonder incident
"Haah…."
He sighed. Though he watched all of that like a bystander, he still feels bad. He could see that the parents of this body cared
….However, now, without parents, it makes things more convenient for him
'Whatever….From now on, I'm Gideon'
He wanted to give himself another name.....But that name was, unfortunately, already preoccupied
"....."
The original Gideon didn't have any friends. The death of his parents had caused him to change.
He had fired almost all servants, leaving only a laundry maid to take care of his clothes
…Once again, how convenient for the new Gideon.
The original Gideon's death, however, wasn't a reasonable development.
"...."
Massaging his temples, Gideon sank deep in thought.
Lord of Mysteries… A world with Beyonders, Madness, Corruption, and most importantly…. Eldritch Gods that want to invade Earth.
…He really is thankful that the first thing he did after seeing crimson moonlight was sealing his memories of 'them'
Just knowing about them causes them to know about you….And then that leads to a gruesome, corruption-filled death
…Or something worse than death.
….Everybody can die from the slightest thing.
And the apocalypse is coming
It's now February 1348- roughly one year before the protagonist Klein- or rather, Zhong Mongrui- descends
And then…. The 'games' will begin
"....."
What should he do?
What can he do?
Make a skill for remembering stuff, and then do the incantation like Klein, to get the Sefirah castle?
…This wouldn't work. If he does that, he will get corrupted and killed by the Celestial Worthy
"..."
Actually…. Should he even become a Beyonder?
With [Get Creative], Gideon can create any skill/power he wants as long as he has enough LP.
Meaning, he can get powerful as long as he satisfies his desires.
"Is that enough?"
Gideon whispered to himself
Was it?
The LP he could generate at a time was… small.
Especially now.
The fastest way to do so would be to indulge in lust…. And that was difficult for him, who had no partners
….And he didn't have access to those noble balls to seduce some noble ladies
Well…. He could always find a Demoness
'After all, the taste of a Demoness ain't bad'
He lampooned for his second 'senior'
Hey, he had to confirm that particular statement of Roselle's!
…

(A/N: A Lord of Mysteries fanfiction about....love and lust.
Surprised? Of course. Lord of Mysteries is known for strict non-romance, and an eternal virgin MC. There are also very few Lotm fanfictions with romance in them.
Though, considering the nature of Lotm's universe... It makes sense.
How would such a power like [Get creative], who thrives in harem worlds like DxD and Danmachi, work in Lord of Mysteries?
This scenario is interesting. And I do have a plan for the MC to get reasonably overpowered.....Though I don't know when/if I'll continue this
-And no, it won't be pure smut with no plot)
