You come from the Dark Continent.
You have no name, no form, and no concept of "I." You are merely a thing that lives inside other organisms, mimics its Host's behavior, and learns its Host's emotions.
You wandered for who knows how many years, until you met a silver-haired boy.
The boy ventured into the heart of the Dark Continent and caught you. After studying you for a long time, he said, "Hey, you're an intelligent life-form, right? You can understand me, can't you?"
The boy's name was Zzigg Zoldyck.
You explored ancient ruins together, faced waves of beasts together, and fled together from the most dangerous places on the Dark Continent.
You thought this life was pretty nice.
You kept each other company for a long, long time.
Until the boy you once knew grew old.
Now you must choose:
A [I want to understand Zzigg and become his family.]
B [I won't allow him to die. I'll make him immortal through my existence.]
C [I'll accept that humans grow old and die, but make him carry my child.]
Whatever you choose, your wish will come true.
Choose your story route:
[Branch 1: Become a Zoldyck]
You become a member of the Zoldyck family... as a parasite.
· Parasite in [Zeno]: You are the lingering spirit of his mother, and he misses your presence every moment.
· Parasite in [Silva]: You are the older sister he somehow gained as a boy, and the two of you make the perfect team.
· Parasite in [Illumi]: You are a symbiotic being who has been with him since birth. You understand him better than anyone, and he wants to understand you, too.
· Parasite in [Milluki]: You are his AI girlfriend, keeping him company as he plays games, watches anime, and complains about family assignments.
· Parasite in [Killua]: You are his childhood friend, there to fight with him, run away from home with him, and get locked up together.
... (More options waiting to be unlocked.)
[Branch 2: Joined in Flesh and Blood]
You and Zzigg become one.
Your life sustains his, and his heartbeat is linked to yours.
From then on, you are joined in flesh and blood, living and dying together.
[Branch 3: Carrying on the Bloodline]
On the eve of his death, you tell him, "Leave me a child." "Let our children spread across every inch of the Dark Continent and keep me company. Will you?"
Zzigg: "I don't want to!"
"...Tch, tell me how many first! I'm not having too many!"
You:
A [5]
B [10]
C [150]
Congratulations, the Zoldyck family has gained a branch on the Dark Continent.
Note: This is a gender-bender story.
You can think of the female lead as a fourth-wall-breaking player. The female lead corrupts everyone.
Theme: Only through keeping one another company and looking into each other's eyes can people confirm their own humanity.
