I Teleported Into the Academy of a S*xy Game - Chapter 132: Festival (3)
Festival (3)
“Uh, uh… Magic?”
“Yeah, you became incredibly powerful out of the blue yesterday.”
I don’t have any intention to scold her; it’s just a casual conversation between us. I’m genuinely curious about the kind of magic that can break the contract.
“Oh, that, um…” Liliana casually put down the takoyaki she was nibbling on, scratched her cheek and said, “I honestly don’t know.”
“You don’t know?”
“I just couldn’t control my lust all of a sudden. I’ve been suffering, and then you walked in, and, well, things got a bit wild…”
“Hmm… What about those horns and wings that popped up?”
“Horns and wings on me?”
“Yeah, it was pretty cool.”
“Wow, you should’ve taken a pic!”
Since Liliana is clueless too… What do I do? I can’t drag her to Professor Im Sol for answers. Sure, I could let it slide, but the worry is that something might go down in a situation I can’t handle.
“Speaking of, my mom always told me to be cautious around guys.”
“Tell me more about it.”
She dropped a bomb that seemed pretty important. More info about her origin might unfold. I leaned in, ready to soak it all in.
“Uh… Honestly, she rambled on about something while I was gaming, but I wasn’t paying much attention… I don’t remember anything other than that.”
“Huh?”
This succubus, really…
Thinking about it, Liliana scored pretty high in the heroine system. There has to be something. I’ll dig into it when the opportunity comes up. I don’t know how, but I’ll just have to wait for the right moment.
“Alright, let’s just eat the takoyaki.”
“Okay.”
Liliana, not bothering whether she remembered or not, devoured the takoyaki. I checked out other students enjoying the festival and left Liliana to her feast.
Night is slowly settling in. First-year students, now fully recovered from the survival test fatigue, are trickling out to enjoy the festival. It must’ve been pretty rough even for those who got eliminated early, stuck in a cramped quarter for days.
It’s peaceful.
These days, the demon group, Pandemic, is laying low. They might be gearing up for the next terror plot, but there’s no sign of it. Of course, terror hits come out of the blue. In the original game, depending on the route, they happen a lot around the third or fourth day of the festival. So, I’ll be keeping an eye on things starting from the third day.
“Liliana, craving anything else? Starting tomorrow, I’m swamped too. If you want playtime, you’ll have to wait a bit. Let’s check off your to-do list tonight.”
“Um, then… Should we head back to the dorm?”
“Already?”
Of course, slipping in early is better with more first-year students emerging.
“Just because…?” Liliana stabbed a takoyaki with her toothpick and playfully licked it.
“…Alright, let’s go.”
Now it’s crystal clear from her manner. Sigh, let’s see who wins tonight.

“Ugh…”
This morning was a bit of a pain. My back was seriously acting up. Right after the survival test, Liliana caught me for a wild night of sex. Sure, I took control later, but damn, it drained the life out of me.
After sparring with the vice president, I stumbled back to the dorm and crashed like I’d hit a wall. When I woke up, Liliana and I hit the festival to play. Then, back at the dorm, I unleashed the beast once more and gave her another session of my magic wand.
Liliana, wearing a satisfied smile from our night, slept peacefully beside me. I got up, stretching and yawning, and decided it was time to face the day.
“No matter how I look at it, it’s definitely a warning for the guys.”
Liliana’s mom probably caught wind of her intense sexual desires. Maybe it’s not a warning to be cautious around men, but rather a message to men encountering Liliana to watch out. Otherwise, it just doesn’t add up.
“I’d better freshen up.”
It’s already lunchtime. Time to meet Lucy and Lumi, the twin sisters.
I perked myself up, grateful for the Elf Essence. Without it, getting out of bed might have been a struggle. Leaving the succubus in peaceful slumber, I ventured outside to meet the twins. We agreed to rendezvous at the central fountain, and I strolled there leisurely.
The outside atmosphere is still buzzing. Given the festival’s purpose to ease exam stress, this lively vibe will probably continue all week.
“Tomorrow, I’ll swing by Professor Im Sol’s place… maybe catch up with Ahyeong. Then, there’s Soorin to see, and who knows, Alice might reach out too… Ugh, my head hurts.”
So much on the to-do list. For now, focusing on today’s tasks, I headed swiftly towards the central fountain. Some clubs set up booths, but nothing particularly appetizing caught my eye.
“Hey, girls!” Upon reaching the central fountain, the twin sisters were already there.
“Uh, hi…”
“Hello, Hoyeon.”
I greeted them cheerfully, but Lucy’s response was off.
What’s up?
★ Heroine Status Window
[Lucy]
[Affection: 88]
[Lust: 40]
[Appetite: 60]
[Fatigue: 55]
Current Status: Maybe we’re bothering Hoyeon…
What’s going on with her?
It would be more convenient if the status window showed everything at once. Right now, it’s a bit awkward since I can only see her current thoughts.
“What’s the plan for today?”
It would’ve been great if there were some fun activities prepared, but I didn’t get around to it due to enjoying my time with Liliana.
“I… I want to go the arcade.”
“Arcade sounds good.”
I noticed some students had prepared a lot at the game club or whatever, so that should be a good option.
“…”
Lucy still didn’t seem pleased. She’s a bit frosty.
“Lucy, what’s up? You seem a bit low on energy.” I expressed my concern to her.
“Is it okay to hang out with us…? What if your girlfriend finds out?”
“…?”
“Hmmph!”
Lumi swiftly covered her mouth in reaction to Lucy’s bombshell remark. She stared at me with wide eyes, clearly shocked. I, in turn, found the situation even more bewildering.
What kind of nonsense is this?
“No, really, what are you talking about? I don’t have a girlfriend.”
Wondering why she would make such a statement, I quickly tried to make sense of it. Thinking about it, there was only one conclusion I could draw. During the survival test, she didn’t have this attitude. It’s clear she caught wind of me hanging out with Liliana at the festival last night.
Lucy, weren’t you tired? You could’ve taken a day off or something! Still, there’s no turning back now.
“But, yesterday…”
“The person I was with yesterday is a senior related to the student council. She went through a lot because of me, so I bought her some food.”
It’s an on-the-spot excuse, but it’s alright. I mentioned a senior related to the student council and myself being part of it, giving me a plausible excuse.
“Oh, I see… I misunderstood… Sorry.” Lucy blushed and bowed deeply, seemingly relieved it wasn’t a girlfriend.
“Uhk… I-I never believed it from the start… Kkuk.”
Lumi was so shocked that she couldn’t stop hiccuping.
“I was quite shocked too. Lucy, you should’ve asked first.”
“Sorry…” Lucy apologized for misunderstanding the situation she had concocted in her head.
“No worries, it’s fine.”
What should I do with her…
Suddenly dropping such a statement left me feeling a bit flustered.
Lucy is in quite an awkward situation now. It would have been easier if I had made her completely mine like Liliana, but managing relationships becomes challenging when I’m still in the process of conquering other girls.
Given Lucy’s sociable personality and frequent interactions with friends, these misunderstandings might happen again. Of course, it’s not exactly a misunderstanding, but still.
I’ll have to keep an eye on opportunities.
Certainly, Lucy will have a chance to be conquered. It would be best to do it with Lumi, but let’s not get too greedy.
“So, shall we head to the game club? It looks like fun.”
“Let’s go, let’s go!”
“Sure.”
Today, let’s enjoy the festival with the twin sisters.

“Aaargh!”
In a spacious room within a massive mansion, a man seated at an elegant desk was tearing at his hair in frustration.
“A disgrace for the third year? Let’s damn well figure out who’s the real disgrace!”
Shin Dongmin, his hair disheveled, glared at his smartwatch while absorbing the venomous comments about himself. In a fit of rage, he forcefully swept all the books on the luxurious desk onto the floor.
“I’ll kill them all. Every single one of them…”
“You’re nothing but trash.” But behind Shin Dongmin, a middle-aged man suddenly appeared and spoke.
“Ah, Father…”
“Beaten by a first-year and dragging the name of the Shin Young Guild through the mud. Is crumbling like this the extent of your capability?”
It was Shin Dongmin’s father, the mightiest figure in the Shin Young Guild, who had arrived personally. He glared down at his son with icy eyes.
“I’m sorry… Father…”
Approaching his son, the middle-aged man seized his face and forced him to look up. The grimy eyes were disgusting and malevolent, yet a burning desire still flickered within them. It was the flame of ‘desire.’
“Failure is something everyone experiences. It’s undoubtedly tough if it’s your first failure in life. But stand up. Behind you is Shin Young.”
“Father, what’s this…?” Shin Dongmin scrutinized the documents handed to him by his father one by one.
“They are all people who will support you. Restore the guild’s standing that you allowed to crumble.”
“Father…!”
“Never fall apart like this… You are my son. You can definitely succeed.”
“Yes, somehow. Somehow… I will get revenge!” Shin Dongmin clenched his fist and looked at his father.
The middle-aged man nodded and left the room. Returning to his room through the corridor, he sat at his desk and bowed deeply.
“Ha… Why did he turn out like this… Where did that bright child from the past, full of wit, disappear to?”
Yet, from a father’s viewpoint, he couldn’t abandon his child. Aware that he was on the wrong path, he still had to look out for him.
“Dongmin… Please, stand up again.” He joined his hands and prayed to some unseen force.
On the other hand, Shin Dongmin examined the documents from his father and raised the corners of his mouth.
“I will never collapse like this…”
Suppressing his anger, Shin Dongmin slowly reconsidered the situation. And he recalled the last words spoken by Lee Hoyeon.
[If I win, you promised to do anything, right? Don’t approach the president again. If you do, I’ll really kill you next time.]
“Kuk. That’s right. It was planned from the beginning! That bitch offered herself to that bastard while ignoring my feelings! That slut…!”
Bam! A mana-infused fist struck the desk and split it into two. Shin Dongmin breathed deeply and bit his lips.
“All because of that bitch… Moon Soorin…”
The reason all this started because of her. If that damn woman had just accepted my feelings, none of this crap would’ve gone down.
There wouldn’t have been any conflict with Lee Hoyeon. Hell, even before that, he wouldn’t have set foot in the student council. It’s all because that woman vouched for him.
“I will make you taste the pain I’ve endured.”
Blinded by ugly jealousy, Shin Dongmin, who hadn’t regained his senses, planned revenge with the power of his father.
