98 - The Witch in the Fire






 After staying up all night watching anime, I slept like mud in a log cabin by a quiet lake until past noon.

 What disturbed my restful sleep was the news of an emergency from my alter ego, Hurt C.



"Erotic girl is here!"



 I looked down at him and said, "What?" in my sleepy mind. I could barely reply.



"You know, that dusky, erotic senior high school student with the Yandere flavor."



"...... Uh, Zahra something like that?"



"Yes, yes. I don't know why, but he came to visit Hurt. Not Charles. I don't like that type. They're more like natural enemies. You deal with him.



 If I'm not good at copying (you), then inevitably I'm not good at copying (you), right?

 Well, Zahra-senpai had something to do with me, so I didn't have to go to him. ...... What did he want?



 I got up suspiciously, got dressed and went to the meeting space in Professor Tia's research building where Zahra-senpai was waiting for me.







 Zahra-senpai was sitting across the table from me, and she was licking me with a sly look, as if she was trying to get a good deal on me.

 I'm getting nervous.



 Professor Tia is not here. Iris is in class.

 Mr. Porcos, the man who guided Zahra, is also gone, preparing for class or something.



 It's just the two of us. I can hardly breathe. I'm sleepy.



"So, what do you want from me?"



Let me introduce myself first. I'm--"



 Zahra senior is going around giving information that she already knows. I think I'm going to yawn.

 When he finally finished introducing himself, he leaned forward with his hands folded on the table and his large breasts resting on them.



"Now, let me get down to business. Do you have a girlfriend?"



"...... yes?"



"Oh, that's too bad. You already have. May I ask who?"



"Oh, no. It was not an affirmative response, but more like a question back to me as to what my intention was in asking such a question."



"Did you mean that much by that one word? Well, okay. I guess I'd better start from the beginning, since you don't seem to know what you're talking about.



 I was lightly dissed, but I was too sleepy to care.



"The purpose of asking the opposite s*x if they have a partner is usually to find out if they <."



"Yes. ......"



"In short, I am interested in you. But even though we are both nobles, I'm not going to ask you to marry me out of the blue. You want to enjoy free love, don't you?"



"Hah ......"



"You're so unenthusiastic in your reply. Are you listening to me?"



"I'm listening, but I don't understand why we are facing this situation."



"It's good to be honest, but you have to think for yourself first. I'm sure that if you use your head a little, you'll figure it out."



"I'm not very perceptive."



 Zahra-senpai exhaled and cowered her shoulders.



"It's not so much that you don't understand me, but that you're not aware enough. You are quite a famous person in the academy, aren't you? In the short time since I entered the school, I have completed an assignment to explore the Olympian ruins and have been excused from classes. With your good family background and good looks, there must be a lot of girls who want to get close to you, right?"



"No, nothing like that."



 In reality, there has never been a confession event of any kind.



"Oh, I'm surprised. Am I the first?"



 He nods his head.

 I regretted that I hadn't served her tea by now, but decided that I didn't need to entertain her.



I wondered if she was too proud and reserved. If that's the case, you're lucky.



 Zahra-senpai was beaming, but if she had been more perceptive, she would have known that this was heading towards a <.



"Hey, if you don't have a specific partner right now, you could try dating for a trial period, right? At the very least, it's a good idea to make sure you're physically compatible, right?"



 She posed as if she were hugging her own breasts and looked at me with a bewitching gaze.



"I'm not interested.



 Zahra-senpai's eyes widened when I clearly and unequivocally refused.



"It feels good, doesn't it?"



 Maybe so, but the fact is that I'm not interested at all.

 I should have been attracted to it if I had been a virgin since my previous life, but strangely enough, I have no desire for s*x since my reincarnation.



"Please leave."



 Right after I said that, I thought, "Oh, no.

 I must use this man to solve a mystery on a magical level.



 Well, it's hard to do when he's coming at me so hard, so I might as well give up and attack him from behind while he's trudging home. A devil's thought.



 But Zahra-senpai doesn't give up.



"It's just a trial. I'd like to get to know you better too, and I don't think there's any harm in that, do you?"



 I fear the reputational damage of befriending a slutty b*tc*? Let's not say that. I can at least read the air, even I can.






 Now, let's think about how to get rid of the senior who is not ready to give up.

 In this case, I have someone I like! >>How about a simple boy's move?






 Yeah, I saw that in an erotic manga. This is no good.

 What do I do?

 Sleepy and foggy in my thoughts, I decided to do what I had to do because it was already too much trouble.



 I was gathering magic power in my eyes.



"Hey, Zahra Yessel, if you're here, why don't you at least say hello to me too?



 Professor Tia, who was also smiling, came into the room with bloodshot eyes.

 Where the hell have you been?



 Zahra-senpai, who was sitting in the position she was standing in, half leaned over and turned her eyes to Professor Tia.

 Without knowing it, Zahra-senpai's back came into view....



"Come on, Mr. Hurt, this is your chance! Get on with it - hmm? Huh? I can't move. ...... No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.



 Shut up.

 I'm already doing it, so shut up.



 I realized that I had a strange switch on.

 Well, it can't be helped. The situation is the situation.



"......What? Is that thing ...... warding?"



 Zahra-senpai stood up suspiciously,



"What? I can't move!



 The warding immediately restrains them,



"You're a demon!"



 He made a likeness of Shiva, the Black Warrior, and struck a decisive pose.

 Unlike the copy, it does not move automatically, so I control it.



 Well, I'm surprised.

 I tried to see the tube that should be growing out of his back, the concept of magic level, but I couldn't see it at all.



 This is just like him.

 The demon we caught, Baru Agos...
