Her reaction to my proclamation was a thing of wonder. A beautiful expression of confusion spread on her face, enhanced further by the blush that turned her alabaster skin to red. She wiggled uncomfortably, but made no attempt to pull away from her comfortable position of leaning against my chest. Her innocent yet accepting reaction made her impossible to resist even without considering the fact she was the impeccable head librarian, one of the deadliest mages in the country, her name enough to make her…

I could feel the Librarian’s eyes on me as I walked out of the cave, moving as fast as I could while I could still stay concealed. The biomancy-based detection trick I had figured earlier worked wonders, allowing me to avoid the horde that was circling around the cave. Their discovery of the cave was inconvenient, but also inevitable. After layering that many defenses, it was hard to hide. The undead and the necromancers approached the cave in a disorderly way. The undead horde was as fresh as ever, but…

Trying to escape from a horde of undead while trying to protect the famous head librarian of the Silver Spires wasn’t what I had been expecting when I woke up, but I took it in stride. I was getting used to the curveballs the life was throwing to my way. I raised my hand after we took a turn, mana gathering at my palm. The librarian rose her hand in an instant, her fingers glowing brightly, her expression threatening despite her exhaustion. I felt the hairs on the back of my neck rose in fear as I…

My shout of warning arrived at the last second, because a moment later, twelve figures donned in black robes stepped into the opening, their hands already glowing with necromantic energy. The stirrings of the array increased while twelve webs of energy spread, each centered on a necromancer. Then, they connected, creating a cage with a domineering presence, impossible to escape even someone as formidable as the librarian. Meanwhile, the one that had been escaping from the librarian had stopped just…

“I can’t believe you’re forbidding me from going to the library!” Helga gasped in anger. I sighed, but didn’t bother to silence her. We were in the middle of the wilderness, and if there was anyone close enough to hear us, we had bigger problems. “Really,” I said instead. “That’s your big reaction to the school being infiltrated by a necromancer of unknown power?” “It’s not like I can do anything about that part,” she said, but I was happy to note a blush on her face as she…

Imagining the expression of Cornelia as her arousal was slowly dismissed put a smile on my face. I would have liked to be there, watching as her joy and arousal was replaced by horror as she understood just what she had signed up for. Also, if I had stayed there for the night, it would have made the process even smoother, allowing me to suppress any sign of rebellion before it even started. However, I had more important things to do. The encounter with the necromancers spooked me, not only because I had…

Cornelia was busy sending a thick wave of flame toward me when I finally raised my hand and called a thick wall of water to block her assault, costing me a small chunk of mana. Cornelia clearly wasn’t holding back, but I was annoyed because of a different thing. The collusion of magic created a thick cloud of steam, hiding her beautiful body from my sight. I was about to use an arcana trick to dispel the cloud when a shadow cut through the mist. It was Cornelia, trying to finish the combat quickly,…

My mind was very busy as I walked through the school corridors, trying to analyze the situation I was forced to confront. I knew that I wasn’t the best when it came to assessing the norms outside the school despite my improved capabilities, but even I could confidently state that finding necromancers close to the school was rather unexpected, and the fact that they were willing to ambush three random students without rhyme or reason suggested multiple possibilities, each wilder than the last. Even worse,…

Half an hour after Aviada’s punishment, our little group was once again fully dressed and was about to finally step out of the cover of the wards that protected the main trade routes and their immediate surroundings. We walked silently, discounting my cheerful whistling holding an upbeat tone. Meanwhile, girls were busy trying to rein in their blushes, their eyes firmly on the ground. Not a surprising reaction after our impromptu threesome. Teasing them on the subject was tempting, but unfortunately, I…

“Are we all ready to go,” I asked even as I gave my hand to Aviada to help her stand up, but she chose to ignore it in favor of standing up herself. Despite her overt display of dissatisfaction, it was clear that she was impressed with my confident display. My earlier martial display was enough to keep her in the run. From the frown that appeared on her face when her gaze slid to Helga, I could see that she wasn’t happy with me having multiple partners, but she was willing to play along. Helga’s…
