I Don’t Want to Be Turned Into the Female Protagonist by the System

The yoga mat was covered in sweat stains, and the room was filled with a faint fragrance. At this moment, Su Qi’s cheeks were flushed red, and he was panting heavily.

Looking like he was about to breathe his last, the soft sword in his hand still danced on its own, the range of motion not showing any signs of deflation, as graceful as a startled swan, dazzling to the eyes.

“Ha- ha, system, I can’t go on. Stop, stop it!” Su Qi desperately begged for mercy.

He felt like all the muscles in his body were trembling wildly. Even each step his little feet took felt like stepping on cotton. Rather than him controlling his body, it was more like a puppeteer was manipulating him, and he could only be forced to dance.

“Believe in yourself, host. You can do it. You should know that all people who have had great epiphanies were once beyond help. If the mind doesn’t die, the Dao isn’t born. If you’re at a dead end, then break through with unstoppable momentum.”

The system actually gave a philosophical answer, making Su Qi pause for a moment before realizing this was from today’s morning news headlines, right? Although it sounded quite cool, he really couldn’t go on.

His jade feet lightly tapped, followed by a stunning backbend. During the backbend, the soft sword in his hand never stopped, performing fierce chopping motions, looking majestic, like a fairy dancing among the flowers.

Only after the finishing move of 13 sword thrusts did Su Qi finally break free from that terrifying state.

His arms and thighs were trembling wildly as if cramping. No, they were cramping. Even his calves seemed to be shaking like a sieve, especially intense under his fair skin.

At this time, Su Qi couldn’t care about his cramping calves. What was more serious was his waist. As a male, he had never practiced dance before. This full backbend really felt like it would break his waist, now sore and painful.

“System, is this secret manual poisonous! Just the second page is like taking my life! I’m afraid if I turn to the third page, this manual might want me dead!

What kind of setting is there where you have to keep practicing when you’re not proficient? Other secret manuals bestowed by systems directly grant mastery, like Doraemon, where you learn it with a ‘beep’. How come yours requires me to practice step by step?”

Only after lying on the yoga mat for ten minutes did Su Qi barely have the energy to complain.

“Please regulate your cognition, host. Give up on the utterly shameful idea of gaining without labor. Not to mention your idea is extremely unscientific, just having this thought is wrong.

If there really were such a shortcut, wouldn’t that be disrespectful to ordinary people? Could it be that a lifetime of effort by others is inferior to a secret manual?”

From its unperturbed tone, Su Qi heard a hint of lecturing. Although hearing the word ‘science’ from its mouth felt a bit discordant, as it itself was still a being beyond science.

But he had to admit, this system’s values were quite upright. And it was true, as the system said—if one became proficient in everything after binding with a system, wouldn’t that be disrespectful to others?

Before Su Qi could think further, the system explained again: “Although this system cannot allow the host to achieve the ideal effect in your mind, that’s why this system launched the intelligent learning system. Through repeated practice of a movement, muscle memory is achieved.

And since the host has no foundation in dance and sword dance, if learning on your own, the success rate would be minuscule. That’s why the forced assistance effect of the secret manual can be used. Objectively speaking, if there was no forced execution, when would the host give up?”

Su Qi always felt that with more contact with him, the system’s learning ability was getting stronger and stronger, and it was becoming more and more articulate. And what it said really made a lot of sense.

He had flipped through the book at 2 pm after finishing lunch.

Around 3:10 pm, he had already started complaining. Because after an hour of exercise, his muscles had started to ache. Without the help of the secret manual, he probably would have given up in about an hour.

At four o’clock, he had no strength at all. His body was completely dragged by the secret manual to make corresponding movements.

Just now at five o’clock, Su Qi only felt like he was about to die. But his body took action one step ahead of his mind.

Thinking about it this way, it also felt quite remarkable, although not particularly user-friendly. For example, his butt now—because of the leg-opening movements just now, Su Qi felt like his tendons had been stretched a bit. If only his height could also increase a bit, that would be great.

Being just over 1.7 meters tall was indeed a bit short.

“System, at this rate, even if I don’t rest for the next few days, I won’t be able to finish learning this thick flowery secret manual!”

Su Qi didn’t want his money to go to waste. Thinking of the draconian clause that the entire photoshoot would be void if a single photo was subpar, Su Qi felt his temples throbbing.

“Rest assured, host. All decisions made by this system are within the host’s usable range and will not exceed the syllabus. After all, we are a whole—prosperity for one is prosperity for all, loss for one is loss for all.” The system replied.

Su Qi glanced at the somewhat tattered thick secret manual, estimating there were at least 150 pages of content left. Just the ten movements on the second page today took him 3 hours. He really couldn’t figure out where the system’s confidence came from.

Forget it, don’t think about it. Perhaps he would know the answer the day after tomorrow. Perhaps it was related to the abilities he would awaken later. Thinking this way, Su Qi actually started looking forward to his changes the next day.

He even developed the thought that having new and interesting things appear every day like this was quite nice.

How could I possibly have expectations for turning female? No way, no way!

Having gone through yesterday’s experience, Su Qi didn’t want to sleep on the yoga mat again this time. He climbed onto the bed that still had Wang Yun’s lingering scent. The quilt was as light as a feather and extremely soft.

In no time, Su Qi fell asleep. Because he exercised too much, his breathing even let out some faint snoring sounds.

It wasn’t even 12 o’clock yet. If someone were beside Su Qi, they would discover that Su Qi’s figure was slowly changing.

His flat chest slowly bulged out, becoming more and more round and full like inflating balloons, finally stopping when they were like two apples. The bones of his waist were also slowly undergoing a transformation.

If the previous Su Qi, even when soft and cute, would still have some hardness from male bones when hugged, then the current Su Qi would feel like a truly soft and tender girl when embraced.

A waist that couldn’t be gripped with one hand, bones no longer as wide as before, making his entire being seem much more petite, paired with those slightly protruding jade rabbits.

Although the changes to the bones on his chest were huge, the biggest change was to the pelvic bone. It’s known that the biggest skeletal difference between males and females is this.

Because females have to shoulder the great mission of carrying a fetus.

This also resulted in females having wide and short pelvic bones, while males’ are slender and long.

With the change in pelvic bones, if one observed carefully, one would discover that Su Qi had actually gotten a few centimeters shorter. But this didn’t mean those centimeters disappeared, but rather relocated to other places.

The sleeping Su Qi only felt like his butt seemed to have gotten bigger. After wiggling a few times, he fell back into deep slumber. His perky butt supported on the bed actually sank in even more than before.

If Su Qi knew his height had been exchanged for his perky bottom, who knows if he would cry for a while.

But right now, he didn’t have this thought. He was still having sweet spring and autumn dreams.

In the dream, he was still a boy. His left arm around Wang Zijin, right hand touching An Ning’s thigh, with Wang Yun sitting on him. Bai Miao stood on the side holding a lunchbox feeding him. Full of bliss. He even revealed an infatuated smile, completely unaware of the changes to his body.

The system observed Su Qi’s figure, especially fond of the size of those jade rabbits on his chest.

Although they weren’t the huge type the host liked, it had also looked through a lot of information, especially the host’s works.

Most of the characters Su Qi drew initially had barely a handful. Then as the main storyline progressed, the female lead would start growing from small to big.

The host particularly liked this kind of gradual process. This time, let him personally experience it!

Surely the host will praise me!
