404 never could have imagined why it had to be so unlucky. Just after being created, it got caught up in the Disaster Beasts' escape from the Space-Time Administration. So much for becoming a power-fantasy System. It had to switch careers and become a Disaster Beast recovery System instead.
404: Me? Recover Disaster Beasts? Is this for real?
Its kind-hearted superior told it that it wouldn't be difficult. The Disaster Beasts would flee into small worlds and possess pitiful souls with tragic lives. All 404 had to do was find a Host from the same world to comfort and save the poor soul... and the Disaster Beast would be forced out!
And so, a gullible little System set off on its journey.
1. High-ranking Great Flame Demon legion commander × low-ranking succubus slave
“You expect a demon to show warmth and love...? What, are you out of your mind?”
2. Noble young heir to an interstellar conglomerate × discarded android who has gained consciousness
“Wow! I never thought you could actually find a treasure in a junkyard~”
3. Newly appointed lord × mixed-blood half-beast slave
“Mixed blood is a miracle of love. I want to build an ideal city where no one is discriminated against. Will you help me?”
4. Chief exorcist of the capital × seemingly pitiful fox spirit (?)
“My mission is to protect the capital from attacks by powerful demons. As for a weak fox spirit like you... I suppose you won't hurt anyone if I let you stay.”
5. The righteous beacon of the cultivation world (?) × a demon dragon who makes trouble at every turn
“So you can look like this... Tsk, I never knew.”
6. To be continued
P.S. This is a top-focused story written for my personal tastes. I love stacking nonhuman and redemption elements, so I hope everyone who shares my tastes enjoys it~
