The Anime Trope System

by Alvin Atwater

  As if he’d get far. Clyde pulled the enemy attracter from his inventory. One last idea. One that required the strain of his luck stat.

  The tentacles froze, confused and curious. He waved it. It flashed like lightning multiple times, engulfing the entire area. Hundreds of flaps immediately filled the air.

  "This is the stupidest thing I’ve ever done," Clyde said softly. Yet, the tentacles seemed amazed as harpies swarmed the area. "Let her go. See those women above. You’ll have more fun with them. An offering to you, great abyss lord."

  A dark laugh filled the air, everywhere and nowhere.

  "Very well."

  The tentacles tossed Melody onto Clyde then multiplied into hundreds. The harpies, set on nosediving toward the young man, met resistance. Tentacles wrapped around all of the unsuspecting birdwomen, dragging them to the ground. Many were violated on the spot. The slime ripped away all clothing.

  "We will find you! Oh!" one of them screamed as a tentacle shoved into her, thrusting like a machine.

  Clyde had an iron grip on Melody as they darted away as fast as their legs could muster. Fifteen minutes later, they stopped in the middle of the street to rest. The redhead wiped away the last of her tears. New streaks replaced them. She did the unthinkable, diving into Clyde, face against his chest, crying.

  [Your relationship with Melody has changed from feared to absolute endearment. She owes you her life. You mean everything to her—risking yours when you could’ve let her die horribly.]

  [Your bravery has been noted by someone of great power.]

  [You have completed the secret quest: Do or Die. A brilliant plan for a near-impossible quest. Reward: $1000. 10,000 EXP. You have reached level 21! Stats increased! Your Heart protection has reached level 4!]

  Even though just rewarded for being heroic, Clyde snapped Melody out of her weeping to point at the treat that grinned a few yards from the duo. The lamia and honeybee laughed.

  "We have enough to cum at least five times," Sui said.

  "It’s all thanks to some light signal. To think we almost missed ya," Abby said then licked her lips.

  Clyde’s HP only recovered to thirty percent. He lacked the MP to Flash step. Fuck. They left one problem for another.

  Episode 10 (PART 3!)

  "Well fuck," Clyde said. "This has been one hell of a night. Slime monsters, then freaking harpies snatching me, tentacle abominations, and now you two. What a night."

  He checked his stats.

  [HP: 35%]

  [MP: 23%]

  "Can we talk about this?" Clyde said as he backed up, Melody with him. The poor girl looked terrified. He threw the hint at the redhead again. "Talking," he emphasized that while giving her a tap, "will help us understand each other."

  Melody still didn’t comply, pale at the sight of the approaching monster girls. Despite having maxed out charisma, she’d be of no use.

  "You know that’s not a bad idea," Abby the honeybee said, still grinning.

  "Oh we’ll talk alright," Sui, the lamia said. "We’ll converse in moans and grunts, again and again. You’ll even be inside of me. It’d be…crushing."

  The monster girls burst into laughter.

  "That was terrible," Clyde groaned softly. The young man whispered to Melody. "Use your charisma please."

  The redhead shivered then forced her eyes off the smug monster girls.

  "It only works for humans," she said. "It’s a political skill, not necessarily a charm."

  "Feels like a charm," Clyde said.

  "Hey, that girl’s in her panties," Abby said. "Maybe she’d like a stinger inside of her."

  Sui laughed.

  "What about a little tail? You know how the end of our tails work."

  "Oh fuck this, run!" Clyde yelled, but suddenly found himself wrapped by a snake-like tail. "Get it off—get it off—I don’t like snakes, man."

  The honeybee held a struggling Melody on the ground, laughing.

  "Do you want to watch?" the lamia whispered to Clyde then licked his ear with a forked tongue. Chills struck the young man, but his scuffle was useless. A man simply stood no chance against this kind of muscle.

  "Yeah, no," Clyde said. "I’m not all big on the rape thing. A dinner and a chat along with consensual sex, I’m up for any day."

  "You humans are no fun," Sui said. "And the most fun part about sex as you call it is the lack of consent." The lamia laughed then licked Clyde’s neck.

  "This is fucking crazy," the young man hissed. As a man from earth, the last thing he’d ever expect in his life was to—a lick across his face interrupted his thoughts.

  "Let’s make you watch a bit." Sui turned Clyde to witness a hungry Abby rip off Melody shirt then bra. The redhead looked as if she tried to activate a skill only to fail. "Foolish girl. Abby’s hidden ability, Aroused Safe Zone disables all magic use for anyone with physical contact with her."

  Clyde shook his head. Monster girl trope. Villain revealing important details that should be kept secret. Wait…there had to be a way. The end of Sui’s tail wiggled near him excitedly. He may not be able to move his arms, but his mouth was another story.

  Abby inserted two fingers inside of Melody, gliding her tongue around the girl’s chest. She set the fingers in a motion that made the redhead quiver and convulse. She glared defiance at the honeybee.

  "All of this is making me so excited," Sui suddenly whispered, jolting Clyde’s attention. He did not want to be raped by a snake woman. Hell, she may put her tail in places where it didn’t belong. He’d die first before letting that happen.

  Her red tail grabbed his shirt, pulling. The end of it was just there. Then a morbid thought crossed into his head. There stood a chance that she’d crush him rather than loosen up. His HP wouldn’t hold.

  Suddenly Melody let out a half-scream, half…something. The Lamia let go of his shirt as she turned to look, forcing Clyde to witness. Abby pulled her large stringer out of redhead. The honeybee had a frantic grin, as if she lived, breathed, and died for sex. She spread her victim’s legs, assumed a mount, and rode, hard and fast. Melody shook, her breasts bobbing. Abby kissed her, then licked over her face.

  Sui’s grip on Clyde greatly loosened as she watched with awe, allowing the young man access to his arms again. He softy shook off the numbness. Slowly he reached for the tail, intent to at least bite it, but Sui suddenly laid him on the concrete, frantically pulling off his shirt.

  "You know, this is quite uncomfortable," Clyde said. He hid his fury beneath nonchalance. "And I’ve sweating from the running."

  "Sweat on your athletic body," Sui said, face flushed then ran a forked tongue from his neck to his chest. "You have no idea what you’re missing, puny human, so I’ll give you a taste. And once you go snake, you’ll never forsake."

  Clyde’s jaw dropped. Sui quickly forced her tongue inside, massaged then pulled back before Clyde could bite it. The defiance from the young man seemed to make her twenty times hornier, especially when he spat to the side, sneering. With him still trapped within her snake coil, she shifted so that his lower body would be free. "Now to get off these annoying pants."

  Melody suddenly let out more screams. Sui squealed in delight as she turned to see the honeybee repeatedly thrusting her stringer inside the redhead. Insane ecstasy took over Abby’s face.

  Clyde felt chills—this snake girl would want that too. He needed to talk his way out this, utilize his own charisma stat for once. She looked at him, longingly, smirking evilly.

  "Look, I can give it better," he said, almost forcing the words out. "I’m no receiver."

  The lamia’s eyes widened then she burst into laughter.

  "You know, I considered doing that very thing as a punishment, but if you’re a plow guy, prove it. I may even give you privileges while you’re my sex slave. You may even get to wear clothes once a month."

  Sui yanked off his pants and before he knew it, he found himself curling his fists—she nearly engulfed it all, her long tongue wrappe
d around his manhood. He nearly released. She abruptly stopped but made one mistake as she prepared to mount. She loosened her grip way too much.

  With one hand, Clyde grabbed the end of her tail, causing the lamia to convulse. His other hand was aimed at her face.

  [You’ve entered combat!]

  [Activated Spirit wave!]

  "Sayonara," Clyde said as he used up the last of his magic to unleash a blast that hurled the snake woman so hard, she crashed into a heap on top of the honeybee.

  Episode 10 (Part 4)

  [Enemy: Sui has been inflicted with Spiritual blight! Spiritual blight has caused extended paralysis.]

  "Melody, get up—run!" Clyde yelled. He didn’t have to tell the violated redhead twice. She kicked the shit out of the honeybee, grabbed her clothes, and took off in a dead run. Clyde grabbed his too and started after her, only to feel something crash into him from behind. "Keep going Melody, all of my efforts will be for naught if you’re caught." Melody hesitated for just a bit then nodded, tears streaking from her eyes as she escaped.

  He felt a twinge of pain and the injection of something foreign in his arm. Clyde let out a yell but as quick as the agony came, it went, replaced by something else.

  "I don’t know what you did to Sui and I don’t care but I wasn’t finished!" Abby snarled, flipping Clyde over so that his back was to the ground. "That’s fine. I’ve always preferred men anyway." She kissed him while massaging his horn. "You were the one I wanted. You’ll be my entertainment until that blight from Sui wears off. I’ll make sure to cum a few times before she eats you."

  Somehow, Clyde didn’t give a shit. No…he wanted this, too bad. He’d stay there for an eternity if it meant having sex with the bee woman. The young man knew these thoughts was the effect of the venom but couldn’t help himself. His erection tripled.

  Abby smiled with glee.

  "You’re mine. I can’t let Sui have you—oh!"

  Her face flushed as she assumed the mount. Clyde felt the monster girl tighten a little as she laid forward, giving him a face full of too-perfect breasts. She rode him, but it felt amazing. Better than anything he’d ever had. He wasn’t sure if it was due to the sting. Whatever she injected into the young man, made him want to fuck forever. The lustful sting, he believed. "Oh! Oh damn! For a human, you’re the best I’ve had—oh!"

  The bee woman kissed Clyde wildly as she motioned her hips, engulfing his horn. "What do you think, human? Feels good doesn’t it? Your slave days are going to be the best of your life. And now that you’ve been inside me, you’re going to take—oh! Oh! Ugh! Yes! Responsibility." Suddenly, she began a wild ride then grabbed onto Clyde, kissing him, as she climaxed. The juices felt warm on his horn. "That’s only one. You interrupted us remember." She rode and rode, until Clyde felt himself release what felt like barrels into her. He thought he’d wilt but didn’t. "My venom will keep you willing and going until I tire. I hope your blight will hold or else, I may have to kill my own friend. Unless she still wants you inside her." The bee woman licked Clyde’s neck, bouncing at a steady pace. "One thing you should know. Contact with my juices greatly expand your life span. So you’re pretty much immortal." She smirked. "Unless I’m killed in battle, we’ll be having this kind of skin-ship forever. But hey, I’ll find more creative waves to entertain you with my stinger." She rode and bounce and rode, moaning in almost childish glee. She managed to get her tongue inside his mouth for a honey-tasting tongue kiss.

  Just then, Clyde felt the bee girl tighten and convulse. His load exploded into her like a popped balloon, yet the venom still kept him erect. The bee woman resumed the galop.

  "Yes! Yes! This is the greatest moment of my life, you’re mine! You’re mine forever. Oh, you’re lucky I’m not compatible with humans. You’d have an army of children."

  "Don’t you ever get dehydrated?" Clyde somehow managed to say, against the murkiness of his mind. He fought to keep his sense of self, strained internally against the poison.

  "I drank plenty of water before this," she replied, slowing her bounce into a more graceful, practiced motion. "Don’t confuse me for a puny human. We can ride for days. And I’ll know if you need a break, so don’t try anything."

  Clyde’s MP had regenerated to twenty percent, but he needed ten more to activate the spirit wave. Even more for it to be very effective.

  "You could always marry me, puny human," Abby said. "Bond to me eternally, serve the demon lord, and I shall give you pleasure whenever you desire. You’ll even get the chance to taste my honey. Honey that not even my master had the chance to experience."

  The bee woman convulsed again, hugged onto Clyde strongly, digging nails into his back. Her warm juices drenched Clyde’s lap.

  "Okay this is ridiculous," he said as she began the ride again. As if he hadn’t blown multiple loads already, he climaxed.

  "Indeed, and you love it. Even if you don’t, I do. Oh! Fuck! Yes, that’s the spot! Oh! Oh! OH!" She started a machine-like gallop that looked as if it wasn’t going to stop anytime soon. "Yes. Hon, do you want another dose of the stringer. The cooldown period is almost over." She kissed him. "Ugh! I will never let you go. Or share you. You’ll become my husband—only I can make use of your talent."

  Clyde’s MP had reached forty percent. Just where he needed it. He allowed himself to get pleasantly raped in order to unleash unleashed another spirit wave. Only he couldn’t. Why didn’t it work? "Want to touch my breasts?" she pulled the young man’s hands up until they were cupping perfect melons. He unleashed another load. Abby seemed elated because she kissed him vigorously, passionately, then rode harder.

  They climaxed at least twelve times as minutes passed. Clyde realized his mistake and the reason why the bee woman didn’t restrain him. Her hidden ability negated his skills. He’d have to try to physically overtake a superwoman. Yeah…that probably wasn’t happening. Monster girls sometimes had the strength of ten men.

  If only he had some high-level physical abilities to guarantee his success. The young man silently vowed to himself to join the dojo seriously if he made it out of this.

  Fuck this. He was glad that despite the skill-negation, the monster girl didn’t have the HP and MP halving effect with the rapes. This next move was a gamble.

  With all the strength his muscles could afford, he fought against the venom, then flipped Abby to her back. A spray of her climax showered the air.

  "Why you—"

  Clyde forcefully injected all of his magic into his bracelet—he had just enough to pay for the cost.

  [You have invoked a summon. Number of summons remaining: 1]

  "You puny human—how dare you flip me and not even continue the dance. I’ll give you pain now."

  Clyde simple flipped the bee woman off, his eyes hardened. She looked surprised as he nonchalantly put on his sweat pants and shirt.

  "You’re pushing through that venom—and then insult me? A human!" The bee woman snarled as she stood, stinger at the ready, advancing. Sui stirred, then jumped up, deadly fury in her eyes.

  "What are you doing to do, kill me?" Clyde said.

  A stinger lurched toward him only to be caught by a hand. That hand snapped it in two, causing Abby to howl in utter agony.

  Alice stepped forward dressed in an orange and black, shirt and shirt combo, short black cape on her back. Vicious black aura surrounded her, attuned to the rage of her glare. With a short wave her hand, Clyde felt her healing magic restore him.

  "You’ve hurt my Clyde," Alice said. "Wounded his pride, hurt his friends, and then you’ve tried to kill him."

  "Princess!"

  Both the monster girls had their faces to the ground. "We didn’t know—please—"

  A blast of magic the size of a building engulfed the monsters in a fit of screams that died into ashes.

  Alice turned her gaze to Clyde. It softened. She dove into him, for a hug that seemed almost too good for the young man.

  "Are you okay?"

  "I am now," he said
, thrilled to see her, relishing her embrace. They both pulsed, the compatible souls synching.

  "Why are you in the middle of nowhere?" Alice said as they both let go, almost reluctantly.

  Clyde told her everything, leaving off certain parts of the story. She burst into laughter from his encounters, especially with the harpies. Apparently, Alice wasn’t fond of the winged women.

  After half an hour, the duo reached Clyde’s side of the city. He didn’t have to rely on his Mental Navigation System thanks to Alice.

  "I can sense that your friends are fine," she said, "but you’re going home to wash and change. And equip up a little. If what you say is true, I’m willing to bet one of the other eyes of my father laid a trap around it."

  Clyde opened his mouth to protest but Alice wasn’t having it. In the end, he followed her suggestion, albeit under a caring glare.

  Episode 10 (Part 5)

  There were immediate responses after Clyde posted in the group chat. Good thing he left his phone on the charger. Well, it’d be safe in the inventory, unless he died.

  Upon meeting up with the others, he nearly chuckled at the hell he sensed deep within their eyes. Chika almost knocked Harumi to the side in her rush to hug the shit out of Clyde.

  "I was so frightened for you," she said. "I felt so powerless when that thing carried you off."

  Neko sighed.

  "Took a lot of effort to get some sense into that one’s head. Just blindly going off in a general direction would only serve to get herself killed. We had to trust in your power to get back to us."

  "I admit, even I felt a rise of panic after you were launched off like that," Toru said. "It woke that one up though." He pointed at Dark. "Pulled some kind of miracle, unleashing everything he had on his slime captor."

  Harumi looked weary of Alice but approached Clyde anyway. She seemed to glance at him with a healer’s eye, nodding at what she saw.
