"I want a female harem!"
The man removed his cloak and revealed a 20ish old man. He wasn't fat, but clearly out of shape and his face was more pizza then face. Add to that, he had a poorly shaved beard with patches all over. His hair was brown. No glasses, though, and I amused myself with the thought that he was so close to the typical loser nerd look.
"My, my... How ambitious," I said. "Most folks looking for love would settle for one lass, but you want a whole harem. Might you tell me WHY you want a harem though?"
"I-I'd rather not go into specifics..."
Timid fellow eh... "I say 'might', but its more of a requirement. No motive, no wish. I can't craft a challenge based on your wish alone you see. It must be personal, or it would have no challenge or meaning. So speak up or get out."
"I-I'm always alone, somehow I managed to land a rather well paying job, but no one's interested in me..."
"That's well and good son, but that explains your desire for love, not a harem."
"Well... Surrounding myself with more women is a fantasy of mine. To have so many satisfied and lusting after me while I not needing to worry of them abandoning me or growing jealous of each other. That is a dream come true."
Seeing as that is the most I will get, I decided to begin the challenge proper. With a snap of my fingers an notebook appears in my hand. Its has a pink leather cover, with a heart sticker on the back. Of course, I added the words "LOVE NOTE" on the front; I felt that the reference was almost required.
"Well then, this here is the notebook that will grant your wish. However, as I mentioned prior, my magic comes with a test. A test where failure equals death."
He gulps, clearly he didn't know all the details.
"Tell me, have you seen a show called 'Death Note?'"
"No, I never heard of that..."
How uncultured, and disappointing seeing as I had just assumed he was a nerd from his appearance. My mistake.
"No worries, I'll just explain the rules. This book is very simple to use. All you need to do is write down the full name of a woman while visualizing their face. Once you do, they will become incredibly horny. They will not be able to climax, no matter what you or they do."
"Wow..."
"Now here's where the challenge comes in. You have to add five names to this notebook and no last name can be the same with any other. You have only one day to achieve this however. Should you succeed, then the notebook will be yours for good and it will gain the ability to permanently bind the women in it to your will. Should you run out of time..."
The lights dimmed and my eyes began to glow a slight tinge of green.
"...Then your name will be written on grave."
"Uh..."
"Concerned. It's only fair, we all only have one life to live. And to risk yours for the absolute control of so many is a bargain. The challenge will begin ONLY if you take the notebook. Leave, and you will never find this place again."
He stares at the notebook in my hand, the menacing lighting clashing with the pink color of the book. Clearly he's conflicted.
"Time to choose... What will you do?"
