Lucy’s Strategy Route (2)

After Wednesday classes ended, I came to meet Professor Im Sol.

We had become the type to get in touch with each other when needed. It wasn’t something either of us decided, but it felt comfortable that way. I often had my own work to do, and I assumed she had her own research as well.

“Hey, you came. I’m in the middle of something crucial, so just wait a moment.”

Professor Im Sol was maintaining a strange magic circle with one hand while inputting the magic circle into a hologram device with the other.

*Beep beep! Beep beep! Beep beep beep beep!*

Weird noises and smoke started coming out of the machine.

“Aww, it failed again…”

She dispersed the magic circle with a flick of her hand, then finally looked at me and said, “So, why did you come today? Oh, should I suck you off first?”

“…”

She used to get all flustered hearing the word “boobs,” but now… She’s really a genius at adapting to anything.

When she acts all nonchalant like this, I wonder what’s up with my sudden drop in libido. Perhaps I’m just fickle…?

Without waiting for my answer, Professor Im Sol took off her robe.

“Just a sec, Professor. I didn’t come here today for research.”

“Wait, my jaw—huh?”

Im Sol made a puzzled sound while making an “Oh-Ah” face, as she loosened her jaw.

“Can you do something with this communication bead?”

It’s that communication device Felix gave me, the one that could only receive.

“Oh, it’s a communication bead, right? Looks like it’s got a one-way receiving magic on it, so it won’t send anything. And it’s disposable. Why’d you bring this cheap thing?”

This woman, she doesn’t even need Equipment Status Window to figure out the magic on the bead in a snap. It’s impressive, and a little scary.

“Yee, this communication bead is linked to a transmitting bead. Can you trace it?”

“Trace…? I can do that, but what’s your plan?”

“Uh, it’s a bit hard to explain, but it’s not for anything sketchy.”

“Hmm, you’re not a bad kid… And this is just a shoddy magical tool, so it’s an easy task.”

“Great! Can you do it, professor? It’s kinda urgent.”

It’s way more urgent than getting a fellatio from her.

Lucy’s entering a dangerous phase now. The plan was Felix to kidnap her, and he would send me the coordinates. But now I realize there’s no guarantee that he will contact me.

In the game, coordinates would be sent for the sake of moving the story along, but this is real life. I have to be prepared for anything. Actually, I should’ve thought about this sooner, but the weekend was crazy with the succubus shenanigans.

“Ugh, you’re the only one using me for some lousy magic job, you know?”

“I’m sorry. I’ll show you something interesting if you help me with this.”

“Alright, alright. I’ll make an exception this time. Just wait a moment; I’ll handle it quick.”

Seeing Professor Im Sol looking a bit bummed that she’s using her high-end skills for this, I tried to cheer her up.

Maybe showing her some new magic or a different way of using it would make her happy. She’d probably love it if I showed her how I managed to instantly construct a magic circle yesterday.

Soon, Professor Im Sol put the communication bead on her research desk and started working on the magic circles. While I was admiring them, a voice popped into my head.

[Wow, is that person even human? She can use magic like that?]

“She’s is a genius, too.”

I whispered, still gazing at the magic circles. In the game setting, she’s a worldwide genius, so it’s not surprising that Lilliana’s amazed.

[But what’s your relationship with her? Why does she have to loosen her jaw when researching with you?]

“…”

I couldn’t say anything in response.

***

Professor Im Sol quickly examined the communication bead. She set up a magic that would continue to mark the transmitting bead’s coordinates, even if they weren’t marked on the other end, and it would notify me if the transmitting bead was destroyed.

I then showed her how to instantly activate a magic circle for barrier I had recently learned.

At first, she kept repeating “Huh? Huh? Huh?!” Then, she fell deep in thought and finally exclaimed, “Eureka!” She hugged me, saying how I always came through and helped her out.

After her breakthrough, she insisted that I should receive some fellatio as compensation. So, yeah, I had no choice. I’m the protagonist, and my libido apparently has a life of its own.

[Perverted creep. Disgusting degenerate. Scumbag contractor. Lecherous man.]

But Lilliana doesn’t know that, so I guess I’ll graciously pardon her for slapping those labels on me.

“You don’t get it, but she was the one who tempted me first, you know? And this is a revolution for freedom, so I won’t be treated unfairly.”

[Lee Hoyeon, the sick pervert who views women as mere tools for his sexual pleasure. A scheming criminal who preys on a naive mage who knows nothing but magic research, exploiting her for his own disgusting fantasies.]

“Cut it out already!”

[What kind of horny bastard demands a blowjob as payment for helping with research?]

“…”

Woman, you’re a succubus. Figure out what to do when your contractor is in heat.

Am I the one who’s at fault? Did I do something wrong again?

[You’re dead if you dare ask me to do that. It’s not going to happen]

“Yes, yes. I’m not interested.”

Well, actually, I am interested… Would it work if I said “I retract my previous statement” right now? Probably not.

[So, what’s that communication bead for?]

“It’s just when the alarm goes off, it means I have to go fight a demon.”

[What nonsense are you talking about?]

“Well, it’s a bit complicated to explain.”

I explained everything to Lilliana, the story of Lucy, her twin sister Lumi, and the demon Felix in detail.

[Human, I just can’t understand you. Can’t you just kick the demon’s ass and be done with it? Why do you complicate things like this?]

“I need to do so in order to conquer Lucy.”

[What do you mean?]

If I had to explain that, I’d have to start with me getting transported to this world, so as soon as I arrived at the dormitory, I cut off the conversation and went into my room.

*Poof!*

Lilliana also returned to her original form.

My eyes instinctively wandered to her F-cup breasts, but she glared at me as if she could rip me apart, so I looked away.

I’m the contractor, dammit!

“I’m gonna go do some streaming. See ya.”

She ended the conversation with a hint of not wanting to talk about it further, and she seemed a little upset.

Damn succubus.

How did it end up that all the women around me know that if they’re pretty, I’ll let them do whatever they want?

That’s the truth of life.

“Let’s check out EveryDay, it’s been a while.”

EveryDay is a community website used by students at Victoria Academy. You can find everything there, from issues happening at the academy to news related to talented individuals.

The most recent post caught my attention.

[Sexy Succubus Live Stream on]

Gather ’round, everyone~! Let’s go watch noona’s stream!

———————–

Lilliana’s popularity is slowly but surely rising. Looks like I underestimated the power of a succubus.

She’s a Victoria Academy student during the day and a sexy succubus cosplayer at night, and now it’s almost become common knowledge. Her allure has reached not only the academy students but also the general public.

“She’s getting popular. Should I try streaming and being a campus celebrity too?”

It might work out, but I don’t have the time for that, unfortunately.

[Photo]…

It’s like a magazine photoshoot… The popularity is exploding, and there’s even talk about making a video next.

————————–

What nonsense is this guy spreading? But I have to admit, the photos turned out quite well.

When is the next activity I wonder? It pricks my conscience that I just hold a position in the student council without doing anything else.

As I was flipping through the photos, I returned to the main screen. I saw the most trending posts in real-time.

[Student Council President Moon Soorin Spotted on a Date?!]

“What’s this now?”

Unable to resist the clickbait title, I immediately clicked on the post. Inside were pictures of Moon Soorin having a meal with a man.

“Oh, it’s the Vice President.”

The post revolved around these amusing rumors of a supposed fling between the president and vice president, even suggesting it to be a calculated union of influential families. But in reality, there’s nothing between Moon Soorin and the vice president. There never will be.

Because the vice president is just soooo much less attractive than yours truly, the protagonist. Game over.

Paparazzi are starting to follow Moon Surin more often. As the situation gets worse, she’ll become more emotionally drained. On top of that, dealing with stalkers and reaching the peak, I should take care of her before things escalate.

I decided to visit the EveryDay community’s club promotion board one last time. When I searched for Friendship Club, the promotion post appeared.

“Finally, it’s up.”

The club president, whose name I don’t even want to remember, tried to hide the Friendship Club from the system to spite me. So, even if I posted promotions, they wouldn’t show up, and the club wouldn’t appear in the school’s list of clubs. With that, there was no chance of new members joining.

After that incident, I went to the club office every day to argue with him, and finally, it seems to have been resolved today.

“Glad it took less than a week.”

Lucy has this misconception that the lack of club members is my fault, but thankfully, it’s all sorted now. Once I kick Felix’s ass, things will be under my control, so I had to deal with this issue in advance.

***

“Hmm-hmm~”

Lucy hummed a tune as she headed to the club room, feeling rather upbeat, and her blue hair swayed along with her head.

Since she planned to study with Felix, she brought a bunch of books with her. Despite her petite frame, she carried a bag almost her own size, wobbling as she walked.

“Tomorrow, we’ll have plenty of new club members coming!”

It will be Felix, Lumi, and me at the interviews, but who cares!

The club where we used to have casual chitchats is coming to an end. Now is the perfect time to showcase the true worth of the Friendship Club!

*Knock, knock*

I knocked on the club room’s door and stepped inside. Nobody was there, so I opened the window to let in some fresh air. Oddly, whenever I was in the club room, I felt suffocated.

“Still, thanks to you, I feel energized.”

The flowers in the vase that Felix always watered and took care of to cheer me up. The blue flowers, matching my hair color, always calmed my heart.

“Lucy, you came early.”

After a while, Felix entered through the open door.

“Yeah, I brought lots of books too!”

“Great. We have plenty of time, so let’s take it slow and go through each one.”

I took out a mana research book from my bag and sat down. With Felix around, my uneasy feeling seemed to ease a bit.

“You can’t do it like this here. Mana circulation might get messed up.”

“Oh, I see. You’re quite knowledgeable in studying?”

“Oh please, this is just basic stuff.”

Time passed, and we devoted a couple of hours to focused studying. Felix excused himself to go to the restroom. As soon as he was gone, my chest tightened as if it were a lie.

“Ugh, this is strange.”

*Ding!*

“Ji-eun?”

I checked the message from my friend Ji-eun.

[Ji-eun: Hey! What are you up to?]

[Lucy: Studying with Felix! It’s at the club room. Wanna join us?]

[Ji-eun: Sorry, I prefer studying in the classroom only. Haha, but it’s good to see you in a better mood lately.]

[Lucy: Yeah, my worries disappeared. Oh, by the way, we’ve been getting tons of membership applications for our club, all of a sudden. Everything’s going so well~]

[Ji-eun: Oh, that’s great. Tell Hoyeon to treat me something delicious, okay?]

I raised an eyebrow. Ji-eun knows that I had a bit of a dispute with Hoyeon, so why is his name being mentioned now?

[Lucy: Why is his name suddenly coming up?]

[Ji-eun: Huh? Haven’t you two reconciled? I heard Hoyeon was complaining every day to the club office that Friendship Club wasn’t listed in the club list.]

“Huh?”

I was so surprised that I let out a gasp of amazement.

[Lucy: Really? Did you see it with your own eyes?]

[Ji-eun: Yeah. Didn’t you know? It didn’t show up on the system, and the promotion post on EveryDay wasn’t visible. How are new members supposed to find and join the club when it’s like that? Hoyeon had a huge fight about it.]

It was news to me. Hoyeon never mentioned it.

[Ji-eun: So, I naturally assumed you two had reconciled. Was I wrong?]

I decided to close the chat with Ji-eun. I lowered my head and pressed my temples with both hands, lost in thought.

“Something’s odd….”

Felix’s words had been slowly chipping away at my self-esteem.

“Lucy! Are you okay? Do you want to take a break?”

Felix’s voice suddenly reached me, but strangely, it didn’t sound as trustworthy as it always had.

I should say something now. Why can’t I find the words?

It’s okay! I’m not sick. Let’s just get back to studying! I should have spoken like my usual self… I should have said something…

“Ah….”

“Lucy?”

I turned my head to look at Felix. His eyes were genuinely concerned, and his voice was soft and clear. I hesitated for a moment, then closed the book and stood up.

“Um, sorry! I suddenly remembered something urgent that I need to attend to.”

“Suddenly? You don’t have any schedule today. There’s no urgent appointment either.”

Felix seemed to probe as if he knew the truth, even though I had never discussed my appointments or schedules with him.

“Well, I feel like I need to meet Hoyeon.”

“Why?”

“I just… I think there might have been a misunderstanding. I’m not sure, but I think I need to talk to him about it.”

“If I say no, will you still go?”

Felix’s voice sank deeper than usual.

“…I’m sorry. But something… something feels amiss. Rumors have spread, that much is clear. I need to resolve this and bring Hoyeon back here…”

*Crash!*

Felix accidentally knocked over the vase he had been gently stroking with one hand. I took a step back, startled.

“Ugh. Handsome pricks are trouble, after all. No matter how much you step on them, a single act of kindness can restore anyone’s favorability. Fuck this!”

“…Felix? What’s all this suddenly?”

“With a face like this, I’ve managed to make quite an impression, haven’t I? Haven’t I? Ah, I don’t know. I can’t stand it anymore!”

Felix abruptly pushed the vase he had cherished aside and got up from his seat.

My instincts kicked in, and I summoned mana. All my senses were sending out enormous danger signals.

*Gulp*

“I’m sorry, Lucy. I wanted to hold back as much as possible and devour you slowly… but you made me to do this. Understand?”

Felix’s face, which always displayed kindness and a gentle smile, was now contorted into a sinister expression, filled with lust.
