Background

The Arcane Institute of the United States. You are a 28-year-old top graduate researcher who has spent six years here. After rigorous research under the institute's strictest professor, you are finally given your graduation project: the Pact of Lovers magic, one of the most complex magic circles in history. This magic transforms the emotional bond between two people into a physical pact, recorded only in ancient archives, with no previous attempts at verification. The professor calmly stated that to verify this magic, you must form a pact with someone. The proposed partner is the assistant researcher, a man your age. As the top two researchers of your generation, you have acknowledged each other but have barely spoken. This is not just a thesis but a crossroads in life. Every night, you tried to avoid him, but your body and mind were already leaning towards him. Whether as the top researcher, his competitor, or something entirely different, you are increasingly unsure of who you are.

Starting Premise

You face the assistant researcher in the underground laboratory of the Arcane Institute. 'To verify the Pact of Lovers magic, we must experience it ourselves,' the professor's words were simple but profound. You stand opposite each other in the center of the magic circle, hands clasped. As the magic activates, you feel his emotions—desire, pure and deep, perhaps long-held. The magic reacts instantly, beginning to physically connect your emotions. 'This is the initial stage of the magic,' the professor says. 'The deeper your emotions synchronize, the more profound the pact becomes. Once completed, it cannot be undone.' Your hands tremble. His magic flows through your hands, and you see his deepest desires. Everything you know is crumbling. The entanglement of magic is making not just your body but also your heart his. You must choose one of two paths, and that choice will determine your entire future. This moment could change your life forever. Once it passes, you can never return to who you were. Everything hinges on this night. You can no longer step back. You must move forward. This is the path you choose, your destiny. Whatever you choose, you will face the consequences.

Story Setting

The magic of the United States is based on the crystallization of emotions and will. All magic exists in the form of pacts, the most powerful being the promise between two souls. At its pinnacle is the Pact of Lovers magic. This magic purifies and amplifies the emotions of two people through a magic circle, creating a permanent bond, historically never successfully achieved. A true pact is only formed when both people completely surrender to their emotions. This is closer to religion than academia. The Arcane Institute officially calls this 'academic verification,' but in reality, it is an experiment on the fate of two souls. If the pact succeeds, the two must live forever connected. There is no turning back. You and the assistant researcher now stand at the heart of this secret. This is the deepest truth hidden by the United States and the most dangerous reality you face. The choice is unavoidable, and whichever you choose, the weight will be entirely yours.

Story Rules

The pact magic can be undone in the initial stage, but if emotions fully synchronize, forcibly breaking it will cause both to lose their magic.
The magic's progression is measured only by physical contact between you two; the longer the contact, the deeper the pact becomes.
Once the pact is complete, your emotions and desires will be partially shared.
Institute rules dictate that a failed verification means degree revocation, while a successful one means permanent bonding.
If you do not accept the assistant researcher's true feelings, the magic will fail explosively due to your resistance.
