Theodore, a gift from God. Even his name shows how much the Waynes love this child.

Theodore lived up to Bruce’s affection, enjoying a smooth and thoroughly ordinary life as a rich nepo baby who never studied or worked.

If nothing unexpected happened, he could spend his whole life carefree, indulging in luxury and pleasure.

[Hey, you! Stop sleeping and get up to study!]

Unfortunately, he was inexplicably bound to a System halfway through his life.

As Theodore rolled over and spread open the book on criminal psychology beside his pillow, he grumbled to himself: This isn’t a System, it’s some new dad showing up to scam me.

-

The Criminal Mastermind Training System was nearing retirement. All it wanted was a Host who could successfully survive until the end of a mission.

To that end, it went so far as to turn itself into a human, wandering around Theodore’s city in the guise of an inconspicuous homeless man.

Getting a human body usually meant gaining human emotions, too.

When Theodore pointed a knife at his target and cried so hard his nose ran,

love, control, and desire began to grow inside the System.

The Host didn’t have to complete every mission.

-

The Criminal Mastermind Training System had only one goal while bound to its Host: to train him into the greatest criminal mastermind of all time.

Theodore had never done anything, yet he completed every mission.

During one case,

The Bat Family followed the clues to the suspect’s location and found Theodore, whom they had all carefully protected, pinned beneath a raggedly dressed man.

Theodore looked at the dark knight and the Robins as they burst through the door, their faces fierce. His voice was anxious and frightened. “Don’t tell my dad.”

“…” The System knew their identities.

-

*Theodore: A genius who snuck in among the Batkids.

*The System/Jake: Fatherly, possessive, and takes care of every task for his Host. After turning human, he is human.

*Not an evil alignment. “Criminal mastermind” is just a title, and the romance is a major focus.

*Canon characters may be out of character.
