Chapter 1: The King of Lust

• Setting:

The chapter opens with Riya's ordinary day at home. His family life is seemingly peaceful, and everything feels routine. Riya is sarcastic and quick-witted, especially with his sister, who enjoys teasing him.

• Father: Quiet and distant, Riya's father spends most of his time working and avoids talking about deeper matters.

• Mother: Loving, yet somewhat absent, like she has something on her mind she can't share.

• Sister: Riya's younger sister loves to needle him, creating a fun and playful sibling dynamic. She's often the only one who can get under Riya's skin with her teasing.

• Mood:

There's a sense of normalcy, but Riya feels disconnected. His sarcastic comments mask his deeper frustration with the monotony of life. It's clear that Riya is longing for something more, though he doesn't know it yet.

• Scene:

• Riya wakes up, gets ready for his day, and shares lighthearted moments with his family. His sister mocks him about some minor thing, and his parents give him their usual indifference. Despite the warmth, Riya feels a subtle sense of boredom and dissatisfaction, unsure of what's wrong with his life.

• The peacefulness of his normal day contrasts with the feeling that things are too predictable, too stable. Riya yearns for something different, but he has no idea that something world-shattering is coming.

Riya Falls Asleep – Meeting Merlin

• Setting:

That night, after a normal day, Riya falls asleep exhausted and frustrated with the monotony of his life. As he drifts into sleep, he enters a strange dream-like world, unlike anything he's ever experienced before. The environment feels simultaneously familiar and alien, filled with shifting lights and shadows, as though the very landscape is alive.

• Merlin's Appearance:

• Merlin (Lady Avalon) materializes before him, dressed in a form that exudes both power and seduction. Her presence is overwhelming, and her appearance is a mix of allure and mystery. She explains that Riya's life is no longer as it seems.

• Dialogue: Merlin speaks to him gently but firmly, revealing that the Saint Graphs of every female Servant are now bound to his soul. This is why his reality has shifted. His powers are awakened, but they come with the need to seduce and connect with each Servant to unlock their full potential.

• Merlin explains that Riya's emotional state—especially his anger—will play a significant role in how he taps into these abilities. She teases him, suggesting that he's not fully aware of how powerful his anger can be when harnessed.

• Merlin's Manipulative Side: She's playful, but there's a darker edge to her words. She tells him that to survive in this new world, he'll need to use the powers of the female Servants to protect himself, but doing so will come with consequences—emotional, physical, and spiritual. She emphasizes the power of lust as a necessary tool, but leaves the full impact for later exploration.

The Shady Figure

• Setting:

The scene changes. We cut to a shady figure standing outside his house in the dark.

• This figure is cloaked in shadow, their face hidden. They're standing still, watching Riya's house with unsettling focus. There's an almost predatory intensity in their gaze, as though they know exactly what's happening inside—and they're waiting for the perfect moment to strike.

• The figure's presence is ominous, hinting that there are other forces at play in this world, and they have their sights set on Riya.

• Mood:

The scene leaves readers with a sense of dread. his life has already attracted dangerous attention. This sets up a feeling of looming danger, and we're left wondering who this figure is and what their intentions are.
