"Woah... that's a really cool ice sculpture," Matthew said with wide eyes as he gazed upon the Hero Association frozen in ice.
{My Lord, we have done what you asked us. Anything else you need?}
'Hmm... what's your name?' Matthew asked, realizing it wasn't Pearl speaking.
{Yumiko, my Lord. Just like Pearl, I'm one of the group's officials, stationed in the Northern region of the planet.}
'That would be... Asia? I guess it makes sense her name is Yumiko.}
'Did you tell them about my identity?'
{No, my Lord.}
'Mhm...? Why not?'
{My Lord, the Death's Hand Group has a lot of enemies. From every part of the entire planet, if your identity were revealed, our enemies would definitely focus on you.}
{And while we could handle them, we wouldn't be able to snag their resources before other groups stepped in.}
'I see.... Then, good job. Take a break or something.'
{Then... can I request a reward?}
'Sure? Anything.'
{A-ah... I heard that Pearl gave you a blowjob... so, could I, um, do something similar?}
'...I said anything, Yumiko.' Matthew sighed inwardly.
'If you want to have sex with me, just ask. I'm a still a man after all.'
{R-really!? Then, yes, I'd like that, my Lord!!}
'Alright, meet me at my dorm when we're back at the Academy.'
{Yes!}
"Students, gather around!" Lilian, with a tired expression, ordered.
She looked exhausted, with dark circles under her eyes.
It seemed the Hero Association was struggling deeply against the Death Hand's Society, which pleased Matthew.
But, he also had two other big forces that were going to be quite difficult to deal with.
The Light Church and the Royal Family.
'Honestly... dealing with the Royal Family shouldn't be too hard, but the Light Church... that'll be a challenge.' Matthew pondered.
'They've got a major advantage against us... I need to figure out how to neutralize Holy Magic without using my powers.'
He thought inwardly, but then, his thoughts were interrupted by Lilian's voice.
"Sadly, our visit here is coming to an end. There were some setbacks, and the Hero Association nearly got wiped out," Lilian announced with a heavy sigh.
"At 8 PM today, we'll head back to the academy. Enjoy the rest of your day in the capital. Dismissed." She declared.
"Oh, and someone take Leon to the healers." she added in frustration.
Immediately, the students buzzed with whispers about what had happened, while Stacy's gaze lingered on Matthew's back.
And he easily noticed that.
'What is it now...?' He wondered.
However, she suddenly walked away, and Matthew's eyes immediately sharpened as he saw her taking a familiar emblem from her pocket.
Immediately, he went to a corner and turned into a shadow, following Stacy.
"Cardinal John, could you get me information on what happened to the Hero Association?" She spoke to the emblem.
"Yes, our Apostle!" A voice came out of the emblem.
"We've already gathered information, and from what our information dealers have discovered, the Death Hand's Society launched an attack at the Hero Association."
"It seems that the Hero Association has offended their Lord. Someone who nobody has ever seen. So, my guess is that the "Lord" is one of the students in your class."
"What's your guess?" Stacy asked.
"Apostle, my guess is Matthew. Only he could be the Lord of that vile society! He's a demon and must be exterminated immediately!"
"And also, before this happened, Matthew offended 'Ulric Preston', a pretty prestigious person in the Hero Association, he also comes from the Preston family. This Ulric was very angry at Matthew and even wanted to force him to do something he didn't want to do, but in the end, he was arrested for traficking himself."
"There's also when the Hero Association 'punished' Matthew, and he was forced to use one of his class skills. So, for the church currently, only Matthew could be the lord of the Death Hand's Society."
"Alright... thanks for the information. I'll contact you again soon."
"Always, may the Goddess bless you, Apostle."
Putting the emblem back in her pocket, Stacy suddenly sat down and leaned against the wall.
Matthew's eyes were confused as she did so.
However, he was already satisfied with the information that he had just gotten, so he was about to make his leave when...
"Matthew..."
Stacy suddenly whispered his name, which paused his steps.
'...Why did she call my name?' Matthew looked at her.
And suddenly, Stacy reached out to her breasts and squeezed them tightly.
"....."
'What... what's she doing?' he thought, utterly bewildered.
"I can't feel a thing... but why does it feel so good when Matthew touches me?" Stacy pondered, her brow furrowed in confusion as she stared at the ground.
"I don't understand..."
'The fuck...?'
"Ah~... Matthew, I want you... I really want you..." With a sigh of pleasure, she brought her fingers to her lips, sucking on them seductively.
"Mhm... I really fucking need you..."
Her hands gradually went lower, reaching out to her cave, which seemed to be already wet.
And despite her inserting her fingers inside it, she really couldn't feel anything.
"Fuck... I really need you, Matthew~~"
"You can only be mine~♥♥♥!!"
Seeing her actions and words, Matthew got out of there.
"...I don't know if she's a Yandere or not." He mumbled to himself.
Although her words and actions can partially prove it... he's not entirely sure.
After all, a Yandere is someone who is obsessed with the object of their affection. And there are many types of Yanderes.
They can commit violent acts and even imprision you; that would be the classic Yandere.
But Stacy didn't do anything like that. She only admitted silently to herself that Matthew could only be hers.
"However... if I had to guess what type of Yandere she would be, it would definitely be the two-faced type."
"Acting like a pure girl on the outside, while deep inside... well." He sighed deeply.
He furrowed his eyebrows with a thoughtful expression.
'However... if she's that obsessed with me...'
'Bringing down the Light Church would be quite easy...'
His lips curled into a deep smile.
