"As you can see, by pressing my body against him like this, I managed to increase my mana pool—usually, it's barely more than a trickle," Yuuna explained, a sly smile playing on her lips as she gestured to her body pressed firmly against him. "And my mana is already full now, even though it usually takes about ten days to recharge completely. That's not something we can just brush off."
It was true. Yuuna felt her mana replenish almost immediately, surging back into her as if she hadn't used any at all.
"This kind of power boost is impressive, especially considering that I have little to no bond with Okumura-kun," she continued, her voice taking on a thoughtful tone. "All I did was masturbate him—nothing more intimate than that. If that alone gave me this kind of boost, then just imagine how strong I'd become if we reached the highest possible bond."
They all silently acknowledged the potential. The increase in strength would be massive.
"Hina, did you notice anything different, like a sudden surge in strength after you had sex with Okumura-kun?" Yuuna asked, her gaze shifting to Hina.
Hina shook her head. "Although... I did feel something strange inside me," she admitted, her voice wavering slightly.
"And that is...?" Yuuna pressed.
"Something that's making my... lust grow."
"Well, that's likely just your nature as a succubus kicking in," Yuuna replied with a knowing look. "I guess you haven't bonded deeply enough with Okumura-kun to see a real difference in power yet." She turned back to the rest of the group. "Alright. Now that you all understand, I want each of you to work on strengthening your bond with Okumura-kun."
Every pair of eyes zeroed in on Kouhei, and he couldn't help but flinch under their collective gaze.
"Um," Nagisa raised her hand, a mischievous glint in her eye as she smirked. "Does that mean we have to do naughty stuff with him, like you did in the recording, Pres?"
"Not necessarily," Yuuna replied, shaking her head. "You don't have to have sex with him, per se. Just being close, spending time together—anything that deepens your connection with him could work. But as the head of the Sarushima clan, I'm ordering all of you to find a way to make it happen."
***
By the time Kouhei realized it, night had already fallen, and he found himself back in the room Yuuna had assigned him. It was spacious, with a bed so large it seemed like it could comfortably fit three people.
She didn't choose this room for that reason, did she? Kouhei thought, a nervous smile twitching on his lips as the implication settled in.
With how aggressively Yuuna had pushed for bonding with him, her intentions were more than clear.
"Still, I don't have a clue how this is all going to play out. I'm not even safe, and I've got the heavenly army after me. How the fuck did I end up here?" he muttered, running a hand through his hair.
It was no wonder he kept asking himself that. Just two days ago, he'd been a regular student, and now he was tangled up in a situation straight out of a bizarre fantasy. Thinking back on it, he was surprised he hadn't lost his mind completely after all these shocking revelations.
"I... want to see Saonji-san before I sleep..." he mumbled to himself, the words slipping out before he could stop them. "Wait, why the hell am I even saying that? God, I'm embarrassing myself. She doesn't see me like that. She only did what she did because her lust pushed her to."
Kouhei tried to keep his thoughts from drifting into dangerous territory, practically nodding his head like a reflex to shake away the creeping thoughts. But then, the quiet of his room was broken by the soft creak of the door opening.
"Are you still awake, Kou-kun?" a voice came, low and almost teasing.
"K-Kiyohara-san? W-What are you doing here? At this hour?" Kouhei's voice cracked as he stared, caught completely off guard by her sudden appearance.
"Well, I couldn't really sleep," she replied, her tone casual but with a hint of mischief. A faint smile curved on her lips as she continued, "I thought I'd join someone who might be having the same problem. Lucky for me, it's you."
"Uh..." Kouhei stammered, his thoughts tangled up as he tried to figure out her intention. Like the President and Hina, Nagisa was a mystery to him—he couldn't read her at all, which only made him more uneasy.
"You don't have to worry. I won't bite," she teased, stepping closer, her eyes gleaming with a playful edge.
"That's not exactly what I'm worried about..." Kouhei mumbled, his voice barely above a whisper.
Nagisa's appearance didn't make things any easier for him. She was draped in a sheer, see-through negligee that clung to her curves. Beneath the delicate fabric, her black lacy bra cradled her breasts, the straps pressing lightly into her smooth skin. A matching suspender belt sat snugly around her hips, the garters trailing down her thighs, keeping her sheer black stockings perfectly in place. The lace panties she wore barely concealed the most intimate parts of her body, hinting at what lay beneath.
Kouhei couldn't stop his throat from tightening as he took in the sight. The student council members were all... well, they had figures that made heads turn. Big breasts, curvy waists, bodies that practically screamed sensuality. It was no surprise that the council office had earned the nickname boner room among the students—walking in there was a surefire way to get a rise out of anyone.
Kouhei never really found himself affected. But now, caught in this unexpected situation, he couldn't stop the heat from surging through him, feeling his body react as he tried to suppress the urge to get hard.
"Is it okay if I call you Kou-kun?" Nagisa's voice was gentle, almost sweet, as she stepped closer, the soft click of the lock echoing sharply through the room as she turned it behind her.
Why is she locking the door? Kouhei wondered, his throat dry, even though he had a pretty good idea why.
