Surely Not...
No way.
Glancing downward, I found myself staring at my own reflection in the mirror's surface. Several mirrors had been placed directly beneath my skirt! But their angles were clearly not aimed at my face.
Adjusting to the setup, I soon realized my underwear was now visible in those reflections. White mesh fabric adorned with a red ribbon, and the pale, smooth skin of my buttocks wrapped around it.
Hngh…?! These bastards, using such a classic trick?!
In the original game, Sera had worn pants on her first day at the academy. And she was raped right there in the classroom. That was exactly why I had tried so hard to prevent wearing a skirt today.
Even in pants, her figure was so alluring that several male students couldn't hold back. They began snipping away at her uniform with scissors, bit by bit, until her most intimate areas and underwear were barely concealed. Unable to restrain themselves any longer, Grenol the instructor and the male students gang-raped her in the classroom.
But today… I had no choice but to wear a skirt.
Because my adoptive mother, Village Chief Puyor, had dressed me in nothing but a skirt before rolling me up in a straw mat and sending me off to this academy. Thanks to that, the pent-up male students had gathered mirrors from everywhere and scattered them beneath my uniform skirt.
What… what do I do…?
If I cleared away these mirrors, the frustrated students might pounce on me at any moment. Maybe… I should just leave them…
…
And so, with every male student free to ogle the underwear beneath my skirt, several class periods passed.
*
Pshhh…!
Just from staring at the underwear peeking from under my skirt, some students became so aroused that they started nosebleeding during class. This scene felt oddly familiar, like something from the village square…
Then, a message appeared.
Congratulations! You have completed the 'Event' required for the 7th Awakening.
Clear Condition: Make every group member around you suffer a nosebleed!
※ Physical attacks are not permitted.
How petty. The condition that had been marked as 「??」 only revealed itself once it was fulfilled.
Soon after, the next awakening message appeared.
You have awakened as the 'World's Supreme Ultimate Beauty'!
Description: The highest-class ultimate beauty whose reputation for being the most beautiful spreads wherever she goes in the world. You may acquire the 'Price Discount' skill and the 'Free Ride' skill.
Urgh, what is this? I had high hopes for what skills I'd get after reaching the 7th Awakening, but all I received were 'Price Discount' and 'Free Ride'…?
“Hmm, why are the students… nosebleeding like that? Students who are bleeding, please step out to the restroom for a moment!”
The person currently teaching in the classroom was Bright Clear. In Korean, it meant something like 'clear and bright.' She taught herbalism and first aid at the academy, but she was originally from a noble family and a renowned alchemist.
There was a reason this teacher, who could have taken a professorship at a university, had come to the academy instead… It was her pure desire to nurture alchemy talents from a young age. She had volunteered to teach at this humble rural academy because she wanted to raise a personal disciple.
Of course, even if it was humble, it was still the academy located in the Selton Viscount's territory, which was far larger than Purshers Village.
Yet Bright Clear's family was so prestigious that they had even produced a court count working in the capital, Lusa.
“You there, why… do you keep giggling while looking at the new transfer student?”
Bright Clear tilted her head, completely unaware of what was happening to me or the mirror palace the male students had set up beneath my feet. I shot her a desperate, pleading look, repeatedly glancing down at my feet with a troubled expression.
“Ahem…? Miss Sera. Please read page 35 of the herbalism textbook.”
“Y-yes…”
Normally, when asked to read aloud, students were supposed to stand. But I couldn't get up now. If I did, every mirror beneath my feet would clearly reflect the shape of my buttocks.
“The wild herbs growing around Selton Town include…”
“You need to stand up to read, Miss Sera.”
“A-ah… Yes.”
Left with no choice, I stood and read, desperately trying to cover the underside of my skirt with both hands so my buttocks wouldn't be exposed. Behind me, the male students snickered and whispered.
“Kek, look at that. She's trying to cover it, so she knows we're watching, right?”
“She might be a perverted exhibitionist who enjoys this.”
“I hope so. Then we could take turns with her every day.”
They're insane, insane, insane… I have to get expelled or suspended from this academy as soon as possible! Otherwise, I might become the school's public property.
Amid the students' constant giggling every time I stood to read, the day's lecture classes finally ended.
＊ ＊ ＊
The final class was practical training. We each held a sword and received direct swordsmanship instruction from our homeroom instructor, Grenol.
Of course, once students advanced in grade, they would be divided into classes like swordsman, mage, or support combatant. But there was no such distinction in the first year.
“Alright, today we'll take time to review what we learned last session! M-Miss Sera… huff huff. This is your first swordsmanship class, isn't it?”
Grenol wiggled his creepy eyebrows and scanned me with an extremely unpleasant gaze.
“Ah, yes… it is my first time.”
“Then our Miss Sera will need… a great deal of my personal guidance, won't she? Hehe!”
Shit, something feels off…?
*
Suddenly, Instructor Grenol approached and tightly embraced me from behind. In that position, he grabbed my sword along with me, gripping it firmly with both hands.
“Hngh…! Wait a second… Isn't your posture a bit too close?”
I had no choice but to protest. How dare he lay hands on a lady so carelessly? If I let Grenol's vile behavior slide, all the male students at the academy might start treating me as easy prey and harass me.
“Oh, really? Then fine. Like this, like this. Try swinging it once.”
Shhhhhh—
Grenol demonstrated a personal ultimate technique that only a master of upward strikes could perform. Even the students who had underestimated Grenol's swordsmanship skills clapped in surprise.
“Haaah… How can you teach something this difficult to a beginner?!”
“Now, like this, like this… Hehe. What, is this hard? Then I'll correct your posture for you.”
Grenol drew closer with an even stickier gaze. I shook my head firmly.
“I can do it alone…”
I tried swinging the sword on my own, but since I had never attended a kendo dojo, my movements looked awkward even to me. When I swung again in that clumsy form, Grenol suddenly shouted.
“Aigoo! You're single-handedly disgracing the entire academy! That's not the right movement! Stop right there.”
I extended the sword tip forward in a low stance, putting weight on my left knee and thrusting ahead. Following Grenol's instruction, I froze in that position.
Then Grenol approached and suddenly placed his hand on my buttocks.
“Wh-what are you doing right now…”
“Hey, what are you doing? How dare you talk back when your instructor is trying to teach you?! Aren't you ashamed to waste your tuition?”
“Ah, then I'll drop out…”
“Whoa whoa whoa, do you know how rare it is to learn from such a dedicated instructor?! Learn properly, you brat!”
Smack—
Grenol struck my buttocks while saying that. Then he reached for my chest as well, attempting to sexually harass me under the guise of posture correction. Staring straight at him, I spoke.
“That's enough. I can't attend this academy any longer!!”
“H-huh…? What did you just say?”
“Ooh~”
“Sera's got some fire in her personality?!”
Puyor, my adoptive mother, might be a little disappointed if she found out. But a student's human rights came first, didn't they? If I properly testified about everything that happened today, I might even get to live a life of leisure at home. That was what I had thought.
“Hey, you! Grab that bitch!”
＊ ＊ ＊
It happened in an instant. The gang rape that was originally supposed to occur in the classroom… instead unfolded on the training grounds as the male students seized me and began tearing apart my uniform skirt from all directions.
