Suspicious Magic Circle

Ti remaining until the first class 2 days.

===============================================================

A day had passed since I holed up inside the building to avoid the Saintess. Fortunately, there were no major movents such as the Paladins breaching the door or announcents of bounties for capturing an Illusion Wizard.

I just have to hold out for a few days. Just a few more days.

In case the Saintess decided to visit, I sared all sorts of Illusion Magic over the building we were staying in. With this, unless Yuna ca and fired a Yuna Death Beam, we could definitely buy so ti.

So, Im sure there wont be any issue nowis what I thought.

But then, a serious problem arose from an unexpected place. Im talking about Pink-Haired Lesbian, whom I thought would be fine even if the sky collapsed.

Thirty-one, thirty-two.

.

Two slis were repeatedly jumping and landing. To be honest, that wasnt really a problem. Whether slis jumped or did sosaults, it didnt matter as long as it was at the right ti and appropriate place.

But, you knowmy chest was a highly inappropriate place.

This crazy Pink-Haired Lesbian was now blatantly blatantly rubbing her chest against mine. It was a crude expression, but what was I supposed to do when she was being so blatant?

I could hear the sound of our close-knit friendship beginning to crack. How could this concept called friendship be so fragile?

I thought it might be a misunderstanding, but it wasnt. Believing it to be a misunderstanding after experiencing this would actually be stupid. Sothing had gone wrong with Pink-Haired Lesbians head.

Looking back, there were signs since the ti we buried the Demonic Sword. Even if we were cool enough to talk about panties, didnt she utter lines that inflated that kind of curiosity to the max?

I advised her seriously.

Your brain is short-circuiting. No, maybe its malfunctioning.

What?

Do you not find it strange? In terms of your own common sense.is it really, truly correct to rub your chest against a mans chest?

Pink-Haired Lesbian tilted her head with her usual expressionless face. She truly looked puzzled. Then she responded like this.

Let say this again. You are overthinking. Mr. Crazy Wizard. I am rely doing push-ups.

And Im saying why would you do that on top of ?!

Theres no particular reason why it shouldnt be on top of soone, is there?

Say sothing that makes sense!

The most frustrating part was that Pink-Haired Lesbian wouldnt accept the assumption that shewas under so sort of ntal debuff. The world was vast and there were countless types of magic, you know? Where was this baseless confidence coming from?

After having always tornted Tower Master Yuna with nonsense, now that I was in the sa situation as her, I understood how she felt. I was way too harsh. I should repent. When I return to the Purple Magic Tower, Ill make sure to hug her tightly.

I grabbed Pink-Haired Lesbians cheek and stared with all the strength I could muster. Even if it ant having a showdown, I couldnt just stand by and let this continue.

Think about it seriously.

Ive put quite a bit of effort into my ntal barrier, Mr. Crazy Wizard.

Im telling you, youre under so sort of magic, okay? Like one that makes you see n as won or maybe sothing that increases sexual desire.?

Ha, it is definitely not sexual desire. That much I am sure of.

Get your chest off of first before saying that!

Please refrain from staring so blatantly. I understand the instincts of a male, but we should still maintain a modicum of decency to each other, shouldnt we?

!!

I felt the back of my neck stiffen because I was so infuriated. Calm down. Getting angry would only result in my loss. The opponent was a pitiful patient under the influences of magic. I should take care and cherish her. I couldnt just leave her be and let her be fucked over by such malicious spells.

No, but seriously

If it wasnt for the Sexual Desire Suppression Magic, I would have been in trouble at least a dozen tis by now. Sothing would have happened for sure. But instead of praising my patience, she dared to behave so recklessly? It was disgraceful, so maybe I should get so kind of compensation, shoul

No!

I writhed in ntal agony.

Please, Pink-Haired Lesbian.Im actually struggling. This is my lifelong wish. Just do one ntal Cleanse with mana. Just once.

Why? Whats making you so serious?

She seed to have finally sensed the seriousness after I hit the Grand Bow, the most advanced form of a plea in human history. Pink-Haired Lesbian, still a bit dubious, gathered mana into her fingers.

It was like washing off thighs, sticky because of spilled cola, with water. Though a trick to clean the mind with the flow of mana once, it had a certain side effect of scratching the ntal barrier that had been set up.

This was why Pink-Haired Lesbian hesitated. After all, a certain percentage of the carefully built ntal barrier would be blown away, so it wasnt sothing to be taken lightly, no matter the circumstance.

Pink-Haired Lesbian let out a deep sigh and then flicked her forehead with her mana-imbued fingers.

I shall grant it since you said it is your wish. See, there is no way I could be under hypnosFUCKING HELL!

YOURE BACK!

I shouted in joy, overwheld with emotion. My brother from another mother. The other ball in a nutsack. My good friend, who had fallen into female depravity, had finally returned as a man! It had truly been a lonely and solitary ti.

When I ntioned buying a peach to eat, she crossed her arms and quipped, Arent there two ripe ones right here?.

And when boredom struck late at night and I asked her what stockings would suit Red Tower Wizard, she responded Would you pick out so for too?.

Didnt every move she made emanate a distinct feminine allure? That thick sll that scread female?

But the present Pink-Haired Lesbian, who had never once raised her voice before, was cursing with the vigor of a true Top G. It was a spirit that surged up from her very core. Perhaps, her dantian, if I wanted to put it in martial arts terms. This was very, very good. I asked her another question, just to confirm.

What do you think of your indecent behavior all this ti?

You must have enjoyed it quite a bit. There is no need for thanks.

Her complexion that didnt change a single hue and her deanor that waved off as if to say Always be thankful confird it was the Pink-Haired Lesbian I knew.

.You really are back!!

I hugged Pink-Haired Lesbian and cheered. I had finally gotten my friend back.

===============================================================

We entered an Ergency Strategy eting. After all, this incident ant that there was sothing shady and strange going on at the Academy.

It wasnt a sniper targeted at Pink-Haired Lesbian specifically. After capturing and experinting on Red Tower Wizard and the passerby, we found a common increase in anxiety or fearalbeit very slight.

In terms of numbers, it was about 1%.

Others experienced amplified anxiety, so it was a mystery why Pink-Haired Lesbian alone suffered from increased sexual desire.

Anyway, even I, a genius (prospective) Archwizard, couldnt easily penetrate Pink-Haired Lesbians ntal barrier. If she was affected, the entire Academy must also be under its influence. The output was weak, but the magic was quite intricately crafted.

Unbecoming of her, Pink-Haired frowned before muttering.

It seems like a significantly cunning trick. I cannot detect it at all.

It seems impossible to catch with conventional thods.

Its weak effect actually made tracking it more difficult. A spell that doubled emotions could be easily detected and tracked, but a magic that barely increased them by 1% was like chasing a mountain breeze.

Is there no way?

Crack. Crunch.

A violent noise ca from Pink-Haired Lesbians clenched fist.

I made an expression of understanding. If I had been manipulated into flirting with a male friend by soones sche, Id want to fold them in half, whoever they were.

Before that wrath could be aid at , I racked my brain.

Theres always a way. After all, Im a genius wizard. Status Window!

Ding.

A translucent square hologram appeared before my eyes.

Of course, this wasnt sothing like a Status Window I received as a privilege of reincarnating from my previous life. It was purely crafted with Illusion Magic. It lacked features like boosting stats or understanding everything about soone just by looking at them.

However, it could display emotions in very detailed nurical values.

Status Window

Curiosity : 50.3

I slightly opened my ntal barrier in this state.

Status Window

Curiosity : 50.8 ( 0.5)

I detected the amplified value next to my emotions original level and displayed it.

Magic usually radiates outwards, so the closer to the center, the stronger the effects tend to be. If we track in the direction where the numbers increase, we should be able to locate the source.

Interesting. How high exactly is a Curiosity value of 50?

When averaged at the Purple Magic Tower, it was around 20, I think? The Tower Master and I were similar, around 45 or so.

If the average at the Purple Magic Tower is 20, then a typical value would be around 5.

Thats slander.

Who does she think we are? How was she viewing the Purple Tower? Wasnt it possible for soone to like, I dont know, swap bodies with their younger brother? That wasnt all that bad, right? At that level, it could be considered a sane curiosity.

We were ready to track the source of the unidentified emotion amplification that was placed at the Academy.

The problem was, it was quite a delicate situation for us. So, we couldnt really wander around freely. But there was a card up my sleeve for that too: Disguise. A male wizard and a woman dressed in a formal suit going around together would certainly attract attention, wouldnt it? So

Overlay : Genderbender.

I put on the hologram. When I checked in the mirror to see if the magic had taken effect, it had. Absolutely perfectly. A purple-eyed beauty with long black hair smiled back pompously. I didnt forget to change the voice as well.

Ah ah. Mic Test Complete. Should I cast it on you t..Dont look at like that.

What?

I said dont look at like that.

For a mont, I thought a wild lion had appeared right before my eyes.

===============================================================

As I fought off Pink-Haired Lesbians third inquiry about whether she could try flipping up my skirt, I reached a certain suspicious building. Given the vastness of the Academy, it seed there were places that had rarely been touched by human presences.

Im talking about places that were naturally forgotten due to incidents or deteriorated buildings. And I caught a signal from one such abandoned building.

There doesnt seem to be anything particularly suspicious.

Nah, I can tell in an instant. Lift the carpet first.

As Pink-Haired Lesbian pulled back the dust-laden carpet, a door leading underground was revealed. Of course, as well hidden as it was, the basent door was also magically fortified. And what do you know? It just happened to be Illusion Magic.

Yap.

I lightly rolled my foot, smashing it to pieces.

Was that Yap ant to seduce ?

Agh damn, seriously.

I shivered while releasing the TS hologram. Despite that, Pink-Haired Lesbians eyes still roared like a wild lion. Was she getting more affected because we were getting closer to the center?

I felt that if this wasnt taken care of quickly, sothing might happen to . As such, I opened the door and hastily descended into the basent.

The passage was quite deep. Only after climbing down the ladder for a long while, my limbs tingling because they were about to cramp, did my feet touch the ground. I tapped the walls of the passage. They were solid.

It must have taken a considerable amount of ti to build such a stable facility, huh.

Pink-Haired Lesbian clenched her fist and took the lead.

Stay behind .

Your gait is weird. Walk properly.

If it bothers you, then do not look.

How can I not look when youre walking like th.Alright, Ill close my eyes.

When Pink-Haired Lesbian turned around, I saw that her eyes were completely fucking unhinged. So obviouslyI was scared shitless.

As the influence of the magic grew, it seed that Pink-Haired Lesbians wrath increased significantly along with her sexual desire. At least, it certainly seed that way judging from her gait, which seed to seductively sway her hips, and her sighs of utter frustration. It was as if she couldnt even control her own body.

Was Pink-Haired Lesbian maybe under so curse?

After walking in silence for tens of minutes, we reached a large do-shaped empty space, revealing a densely-drawn magic circle on the ground. I was astonished by its scale and intricacy.

This isimpressive. Its not an independent or singular magic circle. Is there a satellite magic circle or sothing?

It seems to be a complexly designed giant magic circle, impossible to decipher its aning unless the central magic circle is found. In essence, it is akin to a blind person touching an elephants leg and thinking its a wall or a tree.

Upon careful observation, I could discern the function of the magic circle. This spaces magic circle served as the core axis as well as the command center.

There was sothing that ca to mind. Sothing that I had noticed, but didnt think much of before.

When I wandered around the Academy, I often saw objects that contained a bit of mana yet didnt seem to have any magical significance. Things like scribbles written on walls or decorations in the shape of magic circles on shop signs.

By secretly laying a magic circle across the entire Academy after fragnting and hiding itits effect was exerted through this core magic circle. And that effect was.

It amplifies the targets strongest emotion by 1%.

It encouraged suspicion in those who were full of suspicion, love in those who were in love, and jealousy in those who were jealous. Very discreetly and subtly, at that.

Since it added a percentage rather than a fixed amount, the effect of the magic circle would be greater the more intense the emotion the target harbored.

?

I turned to look at Pink-Haired Lesbian. If Pink-Haired Lesbian was already doing shit like rubbing her breasts against my chest with just a 1% amplification, even though others were only experiencing amplified anxiety or pain, then

What.

N-Nothing. Its nothi.

Pink-Haired Lesbian maintained her usual expressionless face, but the tips of her ears were red. So even she was capable of embarrassnt, huh?

She chewed on her lips before speaking with a sigh.

It is because I am a Dream Demon. Dream Demons are born with strong sexual desires, after all.

Succubus?

Yes.

You an, the kind that seduces n and sucks their vitality drShit, Pink-Haired Lesbian, behind you!

Rumbleeeee-!

A massive shadow, about 3 ters tall, rose behind Pink-Haired Lesbian. There was no way a facility this elaborately made would lack a defense system. It was a misstep. I tried to counter with magic, but

AHHHHHHHH!!

I scread in utter terror instead. Why? Because it was a golem. The bane of all Illusion Wizards.

Even as the golem rose behind her and lifted its massive arm to strike her down, Pink-Haired Lesbian continued calmly.

Being born with it is one thing, but I didnt want to succumb to it and live that way. Sharing love with many people through deceit.and continuously changing partners was not the life I wished to live.

I get it, so just run for n!

That is why I chose to live in my own way. As such, there is no need to worry. Mr. Crazy Wizard. After all, I will not sneak into your bed in the dead of night to suck you dry.

I told you to dodge!

Was there ti to snatch Pink-Haired Lesbian away and also avoid the golems attack? No, action must precede calculation. Right as I was about to take a step forward after infusing my entire body with mana

Sssskrrrrrrrrr-.

The sound of chains dragging was heard.

tamorphosis () True Desire Restraint ().

Dozens of chains materialized from thin air, swirling into a large circle as they tightened.

Sssskrrr-! C-Clang!

The golems arm was bound. Pink-Haired Lesbians arm was bound. The golems leg was bound. Pink-Haired Lesbians leg was bound. The iron chains restrained Pink-Haired Lesbian and simultaneously, the golem as well.

Wrapped tightly in chains, Pink-Haired Lesbian spoke in a low voice.

I like pure love, you see.

Cracreeeeech. As the chains dug in fiercely, a cold tallic scraping sound followed. The golem shattered into dozens of pieces, returning to re rubble.

.

She was so fucking cool.

Or at least she would have been if she hadnt fallen over and floundered around while tied in chains. I approached her cautiously and looked down to speak to her.

The chains that shattered the golem have disappeared, but why are the ones binding you still here?

Its because thats the kind of tamorphosis I have. Originally, it was ant solely for self-restraint. I just applied it in combat by being a bit creative.

I asked while looking at Pink-Haired Lesbian, still tightly bound in her own tamorphosis.

When will they be released, then?

The duration of the restraint varies with the power used, but this ti, it should be about an hour.

Your eyes are sparkling right now, you know? Like, to the point that its kinda pissing off.

Its because while tamorphosis is activated, Im freed from all passions and worldly desires.

Pink-Haired Lesbian smiled warmly, seemingly illuminating the surroundings with a serene glow. It was as if she beca a Sage during the ti that her tamorphosis was activated.

Then, does that an youre not a lesbian?

Both are fine. In essence, it doesnt really matter to . But making contact with the opposite sex tends to amplify my worldly desires. That is why I try to avoid them as much as possible.

.

Her straightforward answers without any hesitance indicated she was freed from all emotions, hence the lack of awkwardness or embarrassnt. She would honestly answer anything when in this state.

During this ti, Pink-Haired Lesbian would answer everything, huh.

I pondered for a montand then asked cautiously.

Were friends, right?

Yes.

Content with her answer, I didnt pry any further.

===============================================================

I decided to take over the magic circle that amplified emotions throughout the entire Academy. Playing with peoples emotions was bad, right? Though I wasnt sure whether it was the Academys creation, a wicked Black Wizards sche, or the achievent of so crazy students.

Now, it was mine. An hour flew by as I tinkered and modified the magic circle.

What are you planning to use it for?

Auxiliary Output.

Casting Illusion Magic on all Academy students was deed too ambitious, right? Well, not anymore. With this modified magic circle, delivering a spectacular performance to everyone attending my class would be nothing to . I could do it effortlessly.

The first class was approaching. It was ti for Illusion Magic to go /genesisforsaken
