After Time Stopped, I Was Surrounded by Beautiful Women

On the day they were finally meeting in person, Li Yi discovered that his best gaming buddy of seven years was actually the nation's goddess.

The moment they met, a mechanical voice rang in his ears:

Host has replaced the chosen one to meet the Daughter of Destiny. Villain System successfully bound.

You have stolen the Daughter of Destiny from the chosen one. Reward: 1 Brilliant Chest.

You have stolen the chosen one's opportunity for the first time. Reward: quality upgraded by two ranks. Congratulations, Host, you have obtained the Epic Time Magic.

After a series of System notifications, Li Yi noticed that his buddy had a Brilliant Chest floating above her head.

He tried touching it. Ding! Chest System activated. Brilliant Chest opened. Congratulations, Master, you have obtained Grandmaster-level ancient martial arts.

Li Yi: "..." Why are there two Systems?

And when he met his best buddy of seven years, who had played games with him all that time, who had he stolen her from?

Did I steal from myself?

If he could get double rewards, stealing from himself wasn't out of the question.

But could someone explain why, as he kept stealing opportunities, he ended up surrounded by beautiful women?
