Click, click.
"Hic... Hoo..."
Every time the dean's fountain pen clicked, Teacher Senia flinched as if she were being whipped.
She probably thought she was just startled out of fear, but to my ears, it sounded downright lewd.
Maybe the dean noticed it too, because he cleared his throat with a "Khem" and shot us a stern look.
"Professor Senia Reeves."
"Eek! Y-Yes?!"
"I know your usual conduct well, Professor Reeves. Many students and fellow professors praise you."
"Y-Yes?"
Teacher Senia had clearly braced herself for a scolding, so she looked utterly bewildered by the sudden praise.
"You handled that task I asked you about so well. After the other professors saw our student Arthin in person, they say he's finally regaining his motivation to study. It's truly heartening."
My name came up out of nowhere, so I glanced between the dean and Teacher Senia, trying to figure out what was going on.
"N-No, it's nothing like that! Arthin just listened diligently to the lessons!"
"Haha, such humility. The other students seem to adore you too. Your affability is a true educator's virtue."
Only then did I piece together what was happening.
That time she asked if I'd be open to private lessons? It wasn't her idea—it looked like the dean had directly suggested it.
Thinking back to how the professors had been yelling "Arthin is amazing!" like foreigners in those national pride YouTube videos every class, I couldn't even imagine the pressure she'd been under.
'But she never said anything about studying hard for her sake.'
Considering her gentle nature, she probably held back on purpose.
In her mind, Arthin Ludwig was a fragile student prone to suicidal impulses. She wouldn't want to burden him by saying the dean was watching.
Teacher Senia was a sweet girl with a heart as soft as her voluptuous body.
"We'll overlook that little mishap earlier as a mistake. My secretary forgot to turn on the cooling artifact, after all. Just be more careful to avoid repeats, Professor Reeves."
"Th-Thank you..."
At the dean's lenient tone granting forgiveness, Teacher Senia—her pointed ears perked up like a rabbit evading a predator—relaxed with a relieved "What a relief."
After that, he went on at length, but boiling it down, it was mostly the dean probing my abilities with questions and answers.
And since I hated the hassle, I brushed it off vaguely with the unicorn's merits.
'Can't take the dean's disciple route here. My free time is precious.'
Dean Luberus Tristigion was more famous as the era's greatest archmage than as the academy's head.
He'd inherited the title of the first Tristigion—the inventor of the mnemonic magic system I used most, which memorizes spells in advance—for five generations. His skill was the strongest in history. I figured he was on par with one of the Demon King's Army's top legion commanders, like the lich.
The problem? I wasn't aiming for legion commander level.
'I have to kill the Demon King. If even the strongest ever is just legion commander tier, how am I supposed to handle him?'
Plus, my magic was basically a hack from a devil contract in my third regression. Now, I relied on memory to recall useful spells and knowledge from back then. In front of a real archmage, I could run out of tricks fast.
To make the hack sound cooler, I'd call it a combat-specialized magic system.
"Well, if Student Arthin's will is so firm, this old man has no choice but to back down. I thought you'd make a fine rival for my disciple."
"You're too kind. Besides, I've decided to study under Teacher Senia for a while."
"Oh dear! Of course a young man prefers a young female professor over this old one! Can't be helped."
Decisively, I'd resolved to become the prized pupil of the busty blonde teacher.
As I mentioned it, Teacher Senia gazed at me with a touched expression. That's how you build favor.
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇ "Phew! I'm so glad I didn't get in trouble! I was terrified they'd dock my pay!"
As soon as we left the dean's office building, Teacher Senia grabbed my hand and bounced around in joy, relieved.
Jiggle, jiggle.
Her intense movements made her breasts bounce visibly even under the thick robe. It was a delightful sight that warmed my heart just watching.
"It's all thanks to you studying so hard, Arthin! I don't know how to repay you!"
Her eyes sparkled as she leaned in close. At the same time, a screen popped up before my eyes.
📜 NEW QUEST 📜 Complete Your Harem!
You can't bear to abandon any of your precious lovers, or maybe you're just a naughty philanderer!
A quest made just for you! Try conquering many women as your own!
Male lions grow stronger to protect their pride of females!
Once a heroine's favorability hits 100 and she pledges her love, you'll get the rewards!
Women Conquered So Far: 3
⚙ SYSTEM NOTIFICATION ⚙ Teacher Senia's favorability has just reached 50! Raise it higher and aim to recruit her into your harem! It was a harem-related quest alert from the quest system that had appeared recently.
Naughty philanderer? A bit unfair, but the part about getting stronger was spot on.
The day Violet and I confirmed our love, my 1st Stage Mana Essence trait leveled up to 2nd Stage. And the reward points? A whopping 100,000.
Four Phoenix Feathers at 25,000 points each. Two Dragon Hearts at 50,000 each. Insane rewards.
'...Is this really the system and the world telling me to gather more women?'
For someone conservative about love like me, a harem quest was incredibly awkward.
This world wasn't even a game to begin with—what the hell was favorability?
Truth be told, the original story had no status screens, so I had zero knowledge about the system and no basis to judge.
'Sure, Shaomei talked about three wives and four concubines and gave permission. Agnes did too. But still... two Dragon Hearts, though...'
...Well, if they like it, maybe it's not so bad? That thought was starting to creep in.
In the original, to seal a Black Dragon—one of the Demon King's kin—Kaiyen had to sacrifice the Dragon Heart he carried. And that was two of them.
'...For the greater good, for the greater good, it should be fine, right?'
The resolve not to use the shop inside me was crumbling under the temptations of harem and points.
But absolutely, it wasn't because her jiggling breasts mesmerized me. My little Arthin swelling up wasn't controlling my brain. This was just considering other means to protect my women.
Really.
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇ Thankfully, Teacher Senia didn't notice my erection.
"Well, I'll head to my lecture! See you later!"
I waved goodbye in that awkward, hunched stance guys take, seeing her off.
Once she was out of sight, I shoved both hands in my pockets to hide the bulge as best I could. But my little Arthin was more excited than I'd thought—obvious even from outside.
I was usually well-endowed when erect, but this was the first time it'd been this bad in public. I panicked.
'Why's it so intense? I'm not some horny monkey!!'
...Then I remembered I hadn't properly masturbated in ages.
Sure, two days ago I'd spent a hot night with Agnes and Shaomei.
But Arthin's body had vigorous libido. Bluntly, the aphrodisiac I took every morning with black sesame powder worked great.
Couldn't jerk off secretly next to a sleeping unicorn—I'd get caught and teased 100%.
In the end, even with the overflowing energy boosted, I had to endure when it wasn't enough.
'...Damn it, guess I have to handle it solo.'
I shuffled around awkwardly, searching for a public restroom on the academy grounds.
"Ah, there it is!"
The vast academy naturally had public restrooms. How'd they manage sewer systems in a fantasy world? Don't ask. They have cooling artifacts that are basically ACs—they figured it out.
I burst into the restroom and grabbed some tissue from the dispenser.
'Last time I jerked off in a bathroom was the army. Now I have girlfriends, and I'm doing it in a toilet...'
Felt pathetic, but wandering around this erect would've started rumors like "He conquered the imperial princess with his dick."
"Looks empty, any stall will do... Aaaah?!"
"Hello, Young Master Arthin?"
I opened the innermost stall, and there was Sion, primly seated, greeting me.
"Wh-What are you doing?! How are you even in here?! Are you a pervert?!"
"...Hehe, I saw you heading to the restroom and came ahead to wait."
That meant she'd been tailing me.
"Don't stare at me with such intense eyes, Young Master... It's embarrassing."
I gawked in disbelief, and for some reason, Sion blushed.
She was definitely insane. What reporter waits for someone in the men's room?
"Just get out and wait... I'll do my business and come out."
"Your business—what business do you mean?"
Then, with eyes sharp like a snake eyeing prey, she ogled my bulging crotch. I hurriedly covered little Arthin with both hands.
"Where are you looking?! You pervert! Is that why you came?!"
As I yelled desperately, Sion licked her lips, looked up, and flashed a seductive smile.
"Hehe, don't be so harsh. I came because I completed the task you gave me."
I froze at that. Sion slowly stroked my thigh with a bewitching grin.
"I found the signs of the villain you mentioned. Will you really chase me away so coldly?"
Her hand crept upward, but I couldn't bring myself to stop it. Hard to deny her sweet voice was shaking me.
I'd endured hundreds of tortures, yet powerless against a woman's temptation?
'No, not this crazy bitch! Remember, Arthin—recall her madness!'
I squeezed my eyes shut, recalling Sion's insanities.
Sion cursing me, insulting me, dogeza naked...
Ah, fuck.
The image of her naked, submitting in dogeza—now my pants weren't the issue; my dick felt ready to burst.
Then, something popped up before my eyes again.

'...Sorry, girls. This... this is for you...'
I slowly lowered my hands from covering little Arthin.
It was the moment my pride crumbled to the system's capitalist temptation.
Sion smiled at the sight.
