The Zombie Dating System

Three years into the apocalypse, Mike is murdered by his wife Sarah and best friend Ethan, who plan to eat him. He awakens as a zombie and unexpectedly activates a romance system that demands he woo attractive women to earn rewards.

Mike learns his consciousness will be erased if he fails the mission within 24 hours. Just as he despairs, the system detects a female target with an attractiveness score of 93, who is shocked to see a zombie that can dodge bullets.

Mike flees from a gun-wielding Jessie while the system urges him to conquer his target. During the chase, he spots a female zombie in danger and the system identifies her as an eligible target, making Mike realize the mission never specified human women.

After shaking off Jessie, Mike receives a system notification that rescuing her has earned favorability and completed one-third of the conquest. His physical abilities increase by ten points and his human form restores by ten percent. He tests the boost by tearing Jessie's clothes with ease, then asks the system what counts as conquest and learns that a kiss is enough.

Mike realizes Jessie has been tailing him. She declares he can reproduce and must be killed to prevent a zombie population explosion. After Mike kills another zombie to protect her, the system notifies him that Jessie's approval has risen, completing two-thirds of the conquest and boosting his physical abilities again. Mike is baffled that bondage can raise approval and wonders if she is a masochist.

After subduing Jessie, Mike's system detects two highly attractive women nearby. He recognizes them as the ones who turned him into food in his past life and decides to get revenge by boiling water to make soup.

Catherine and Anna are threatened by armed men. Jessie shows up but is outmatched without her gun. Mike arrives carrying three guns, drives off the attackers, and declares he will settle the score with Jessie once and for all.

Ethan and his men spot the zombie and mock it before ordering an attack. Mike crushes a Damascus steel knife with one hand and smashes two men's heads. Injured, Ethan realizes the zombie is sentient and decides this is their best chance to kill it.

Jessie stops Ethan's men from attacking Mike, raising suspicion. Ethan's reinforcements arrive and order the women captured and the zombie chopped up. Mike checks his system, then forcibly kisses Jessie to complete the final step of capturing her heart.

Mike completes the romance quest and gains the zombie army summoning technique, doubled physical abilities, and partial restoration of his human traits. Realizing he still has corpse breath, he asks Anna and Catherine for help. Ethan's men mock the kiss as a bluff, and Mike challenges whether they still think he is bluffing.
