Cheon Seo-yun nodded nonchalantly as she ate her omurice, then answered Park So-yul's question with a casual affirmation.
"We were together."
"...Just to make sure, you two didn't... you know?"
Park So-yul seemed to have noticed that neither Cheon Seo-yun nor I had shown up for physical training and was asking about it.
From the start, since we'd been together as a guy and a girl, it was natural for her to think that way—but just as I was accepting it as reasonable, Cheon Seo-yun responded again.
"Yeah. We had sex."
"Whoa..."
Park So-yul looked at me with eyes and an expression mixed with shock, embarrassment, and admiration.
Thinking back on it now, it probably looked like I'd brought a girl to the clubroom on the very first day we got it and slept with her.
"Is that why you made the club?"
As expected, Park So-yul was thinking the exact same thing as me and asked just that.
If we were just looking at the results like this, I had nothing to say in my defense—but it wasn't because of the club.
"What are you talking about? You were the one who suggested making the club."
"I suggested it, but you must've loved the idea deep down. You slept with Cheon Seo-yun right after we made it."
Park So-yul spoke with half-certainty, then turned to Cheon Seo-yun and asked her too.
"Cheon Seo-yun. You didn't ask him to do it first, right?"
"Yeah. I was just lying there, but he kissed me first."
Hearing Cheon Seo-yun's response, Park So-yul shot me another look that said, Of course.
"And he kept making me say dirty things. I tried to resist somehow, but I ended up losing and submitting."
"......"
With Cheon Seo-yun's follow-up, Park So-yul now looked at me like I was trash.
Honestly, it wasn't wrong, but stripping away all the context made me feel like total scum.
'Nah, it's not that different, is it?'
From pouncing on her first to getting half-forced permission to take interest in the other girls too.
Even thinking about it myself, I felt like a scumbag, so I decided to just lean into it at this point.
"There's no way I'd be satisfied with just touching your body."
"I knew you were into girls' bodies. I just didn't expect it on the first day of the club."
From her response, it seemed Park So-yul had anticipated something like this happening eventually.
"Anyway, since I did it with Cheon Seo-yun, from now on I'll only touch Cheon Seo-yun's body, right?"
"No, we'll just take turns like I said before."
"......Why? You want to do it with me and Joo Ha-yeon too?"
Instead of answering, I nodded.
Park So-yul gave me a fed-up look at my response, then turned to Cheon Seo-yun.
"Cheon Seo-yun. You okay with that?"
"I like it when Lee Seong-min holds me."
In response to Park So-yul's question, Cheon Seo-yun bluntly said she liked being held by me.
"You like it?"
"My strength and magic power go up every time."
"What?"
When Cheon Seo-yun mentioned her Limit Break ability, Park So-yul looked at me like she was checking if it was true.
Since Cheon Seo-yun had already spilled it, I couldn't deny it, so I nodded and confirmed.
"Yeah."
"That's an innate ability too?"
"If it's innate, then yeah."
"How many innate abilities do you even have?"
Park So-yul looked utterly baffled as my innate abilities kept coming out no matter how much she dug.
Still, with her wariness spiking just from me sleeping with Cheon Seo-yun, this seemed like a great way to win her over.
"And your strength and magic power go up every time you do it with her? What kind of innate ability even is that?"
Regardless of her heightened caution, Park So-yul looked seriously confused.
'Should I fan the flames of that confusion here?'
I thought this might be my chance if I wanted to hold Park So-yul later too.
After mulling it over briefly, I made up my mind and went straight for it with Park So-yul.
"Wanna do it now?"
"W-What?"
"Your strength and magic power go up. Didn't you come to Hero Officer Academy because you want to get stronger?"
Saying that, I stood up and approached Park So-yul.
As I strode toward her, Park So-yul looked even more flustered, not knowing what to do.
"Just think of it as getting held to build your strength, not because you like it."
"W-Wait. This is too sudden; I can't process it."
Surprisingly, Park So-yul seemed weak to this kind of aggressive push.
"What's there to process? Just lie down. I'll handle everything else."
Park So-yul shot a pleading look at Cheon Seo-yun.
But Cheon Seo-yun just munched on her galbi, watching the scene unfold.
"It goes up every time, so you could probably even reach S-Rank. Don't you want to be an S-Rank hero?"
"S-Rank...?"
Huh?
At the mention of S-Rank, Park So-yul looked massively shaken.
Considering how rare S-Rank heroes were in this world, it made sense.
"Yeah, never mind. Pretend I didn't say anything."
In the end, though, Park So-yul couldn't accept it and bolted out of the clubroom.
But my goal had been to stir up confusion in her, so mission accomplished on that front.
'Now if I just use Limit Break to amp up sexual arousal, that should do it.'
Thinking that, I returned to my seat, and Cheon Seo-yun refocused on her meal.
She'd used up a ton of energy from this incident, so her portion was two or three times the usual.
'Anyway, this morning's practical combat class.'
Even though Park So-yul had fled the clubroom, we'd see her again soon enough.
As I pondered what kind of reaction she'd have then, Cheon Seo-yun asked about what I'd said earlier.
"Can you really reach S-Rank?"
"S-Rank? Probably. You could too with hard training."
"You should hide that."
Cheon Seo-yun said I should keep Limit Break under wraps after hearing my answer.
I didn't get it at first, but then Lee Seojun explained via telepathy from nearby.
-There are fewer than a thousand S-Ranks worldwide. That's why she says to hide that sleeping with you makes someone S-Rank.
I understood easily thanks to that, but it felt pointless anyway.
"It's fine. I have no plans to blab about it. Besides, you were the one who mentioned the ability first."
"I was helping you."
Cheon Seo-yun claimed she'd been helping me sleep with Park So-yul.
'Did she really help?'
If she had, then maybe she really had fallen for me like Lee Seojun said before. I wanted to check.
With that thought, I leaned in close, and Cheon Seo-yun immediately offered her lips and tongue in response.
Smack. Slurp.
Even as I kneaded her breasts or slipped my hand under her skirt, she opened her body to make it easier for me.
"When I hold Park So-yul later, I'll hold you too, so wait for it."
Finally, when I said I'd do Park So-yul with her too, Cheon Seo-yun stared at me blankly for a moment before nodding readily.
"Okay."
"Next week's practical combat class is uninhabited island survival."
Uninhabited island survival?
I headed to the group training grounds for practical combat class as soon as time allowed, together with Cheon Seo-yun.
There, along with Park So-yul—who was conspicuously avoiding my gaze—Oh Ye-rin, and Jeong Yu-mi, we heard about next week's lesson.
-It's exactly what it sounds like: spending a week on an uninhabited island. As long as you handle food and sleep, it's not that hard.
I nodded nonchalantly at Lee Seojun's explanation.
With my full abilities unleashed, I could live comfortably anywhere.
'An uninhabited island goes without saying.'
Hunger? Solved with Collection Cuisine Summon.
Sleep? Just use the terrain.
-And obviously, you can use points to make survival easier.
As Lee Seojun brought up points, Instructor Kang Ju-young up front did the same.
"You'll be living on an uninhabited island for a week. It's just survival, so it shouldn't be too tough. That said, you're allowed to bring items purchased with points."
At the same time, one student raised their hand and spoke to Instructor Kang Ju-young.
"Instructor! Besides point purchases, what basic items do we get?"
"None. You'll head out in whatever you're wearing right now. If you're worried, buy what you need with points."
For reference, I currently had 5 points.
Just the 5 I'd earned from yesterday afternoon's elemental magic class, but I wasn't concerned.
'Though Instructor Kang Ju-young knows about my Collection Cuisine Summon.'
She'd restricted my points because of the club, so maybe she'd tell me not to use it for this island survival either.
'Eh, no big deal if I can't.'
Honestly, I could last a week without eating or sleeping if needed.
Well, with my physical abilities sealed now, it might be tougher, but not a real problem.
"Instructor! Do we move in teams?"
"Are there monsters on the island?"
"Does it go through the weekend?"
Instructor Kang Ju-young calmly regarded the students firing off questions before speaking up.
"Quiet."
"......"
"......"
It was the same magic-enhanced voice projection technique she'd used before.
With that, she silenced the class instantly and gave a brief explanation.
"No teams. Act individually. And this affects your grades, so do your best."
From what she said, Instructor Kang Ju-young was only giving the bare basics.
The rest we'd have to learn on our own, it seemed—but luckily, I had someone to fill me in.
-No monsters, just summoned beasts wandering around. Catch them for points. Around day 3 or 4, you can fight other cadets and steal their points too.
I got a quick rundown from Lee Seojun on the uninhabited island we'd be heading to next week.
Survival itself wasn't hard, so skipping that—catch some summoned beasts and a few cadets, done.
'Shouldn't be any trouble.'
In fact, neither Cheon Seo-yun nor Park So-yul looked too worried.
With my summoned cuisine handling meals, we could rack up points easily.
Plus, the other teammates, Oh Ye-rin and Jeong Yu-mi, had some points saved up already and didn't seem to take it too seriously.
