Special Transfer Student in Steamy Peril
I'm a special transfer student at Elan Academy. And I'm still a virgin. Even pushing past twenty-five, I was a virgin—no magic powers like those community rumors suggested. But no matter how much of a virgin I was, I had zero intention of losing it in some forced situation like this.
"Husband. Stay still. It'll feel so good soon♥"
"S-stop! You crazy yandere bitch!"
"Haa♥ So that's it, husband. Tsun. De. Re♥"
Eldina Prosche hadn't been like this originally. Ever since her personality shifted, she'd gone off the rails. Forget the Act of lying—her Abl of Alteration······ this power was way more dangerous than I'd realized.
I should've seen it from the name 'Alteration'······ This is straight-up common sense alteration!
Common sense alteration was a staple trope in those adult games, and my absolute least favorite one. I didn't hate adult games, but that? Hard pass. I was the type who enjoyed steadily building affection levels. That payoff of finally winning over a heroine after grinding her favor? Pure satisfaction. Forced affection boosts via common sense hacks? I didn't hate them, but they weren't my thing.
And now Eldina wasn't just maxed affection—she'd become a whole different person, personality and all.
Everyone else hated Eldina, but I loved her. She was the first character I'd ever designed, sure, but it was her man-hating trait that hooked me. Slowly breaking down that hatred until she fell head over heels for me? That was the perfect heroine route ending.
This isn't my Eldina!
The Eldina straddling me now? Not the one I knew. She was just a female beast obsessed with one man. No way was I letting her take my virginity.
Dr-r-ruck—! The door at the hot spring entrance slid open.
"Who's there!? H-help me out!"
I barely twisted my head toward the entrance and yelled.
"What the hell's this situation?"
Sky-blue bob cut, turquoise eyes······ It's Esil!
Esil Rubr. One of Elan Symphonia's conquerable heroines, the genius swordswoman dubbed the Small Sword Saint. Unlike Eldina, she always ranked Top 3 in popularity polls.
"Esil! Help me out!"
"How'd you know my name?"
"Ask later—deal with this woman on top of me first!"
Esil just stood there blankly, staring back and forth between me and Eldina. What the—no, why're you just standing there when I asked for help?
"Husband."
"Eek!"
Eldina leaned in close, eyes wide like she might snap any second. I flinched hard.
"You eyeing some other girl besides me?"
"Th-that's······"
Damn, terrifying. I could feel the heat radiating off her—was that killer intent?
"Can't even speak? Husband. No. Duh, should've thought of something simple."
Eldina pulled away from me. Finally giving up? Nope.
She glared at Esil like she wanted to murder her.
"First, kill that thieving cat. Then finish up."
What kind of monster did I create?
The monster born from my lies began conjuring a fireball aimed at Esil. Not the standard fireball—this was pitch-black, hellfire-level stuff.
"You planning to attack me right now?"
"Die, thieving cat!"
Eldina hurled the black flame orb at Esil.
Esil summoned a sword from thin air. Her Act of zoning out unlocked the AblMirror Mind—the power to manifest a mind sword through sheer blank-minded focus. In other words, the blade in her hand was a heart sword. Unbreakable as long as her will held firm—and in the hands of a genius swordswoman like Esil? It was······
Esil cleaved the black flame orb clean in two. The shattered fragments scattered everywhere······
"Hot hot hot!"
Some debris hit me too, leaving a minor burn. Lucky it was just fragments—what if it'd been a big chunk?
Slicing that thing? As expected of the Small Sword Saint.
No wonder they called her a sword genius.
"You attacked first. No complaints if you go down."
Esil closed in on Eldina at blinding speed.
"This thieving cat!"
"Don't like cats. Dog person, if anything."
Eldina tried to backpedal in panic, but Esil's sword was faster. In a flash, the flat of the blade struck multiple spots on Eldina's body. She crumpled forward with a thud.
"Done."
Esil sheathed her mind sword and approached me.
"Who're you?"
"Me?"
"Who else? Why were you doing that with Eldina?"
"Wasn't my idea—she was about to force herself on me."
"More importantly, outsiders banned here. Women's bath too—how'd you get in?"
Esil cut straight to the core issue. My answer here could decide if her sword ended up at my throat.
Wait, do I even need to agonize over this?
No need for excuses. I had my Abl, right? The Act of lying granting Alteration could bail me out of anything.
Just make myself 'authorized.'
No outsiders allowed? Become authorized. This was probably the hot spring attached to the women's dorm at Elan Academy. So academy affiliate: student or teacher.
Teacher? Hell no—too much paperwork. I'd set the workload brutally high: constant cleanup after rowdy students. Pass.
Student it was.
"Truth is, I'm actually a special transfer student enrolling at the academy soon."
Alteration triggered.
Alteration content: Han Ijun is a special transfer student enrolling at Elan Academy soon.
Alteration in progress.
Alteration complete. Memories of Elan Academy affiliates altered.
Suspicious intruder → Special transfer student at Elan Academy: Change complete.
"Come to think of it, yeah. Heard the principal mention a special transfer student coming soon."
"Right. That's me."
"Authorized, got it. But doesn't explain why you're in the women's dorm—women's bath."
Next issue hit. Authorized? Check. But why here? Still unexplained.
Easy fix with another alteration.
"Well, see. I'm kinda broke. Told the principal I needed cash before enrolling, so he asked me to clean the women's dorm hot spring during off-hours. I said women's bath was iffy, but he swore it was empty time, no worries. What could I do? Needed the money. Came in thinking it was empty, and bam—that girl goes nuts and jumps me."
Alteration triggered.
Alteration content: Han Ijun was introduced by the principal to a cleaning part-time gig at the women's dorm hot spring during off-hours to earn money.
Alteration in progress.
Alteration complete.
Special transfer student trespassing in women's dorm hot spring → Innocent victim jumped by a girl while on cleaning part-time duty.
Eldina was my alteration, so not totally innocent, but the system says so, so whatever.
"That it? Makes sense."
Esil nodded, convinced. She'd have bought a half-assed excuse anyway—hated hassle, after all.
"Transfer student's name?"
"Me? Han Ijun."
"Han Ijun. Weird name. From the East?"
Made sense—this was a medieval Western fantasy world. 'Han Ijun' stuck out.
"Yeah, from the East."
That one line fixed it. The East was mysterious to continentals—exotic name from exotic place? Shrug.
"I'm Esil Rubr. First-year, Class A at Elan Academy."
"Esil, huh. Might end up in your class—not sure. Either way, nice to meet you."
"Buy me food, maybe."
"Uh, sure."
Esil Rubr's affection has increased.
Esil Rubr → Han Ijun Affection (♣) 0% → 5%
"Now get out."
"Huh?"
"Gotta bathe. Planning to stick around?"
"S-sorry. I'll head out. See you later."
I scrambled out of the hot spring as fast as I could.
