The Blood Witch approached .
Every ti she blinked, her long eyelashes brushed lightly against her eyelids.
“Aren’t you curious?”
“…”
“I can tell you, since it’s you. How I take from others.”
Swoosh.
Her fingers touched my cheek.
As lightly as a breeze.
Each slow movent of her touch sent my blood surging.
Her hand stopped near my collarbone.
“Big and firm.”
She traced my collarbone as if appraising it.
Her heated breath tickled my skin.
My senses sharpened.
Calmly, I spoke.
“As a mber of the Bloodstone Cult, I suppose you do take things from others.”
“That’s right. But I don’t kill.”
“Are you trying to brag that you’re different from the others?”
“No.”
She smiled at .
“I’m saying that I can let you experience it too.”
It was a laugh soaked in decadence.
Perched on the desk, she leaned toward .
Her upper body swayed gently as she laughed.
Her outfit was revealing, flowing like a thin veil.
I could guess how she drained energy from others.
‘… It must be the sa principle as a succubus.’
After all, Fantasy X Academy was a fantasy world.
It was cliché to have at least one overwhelmingly seductive succubus villain.
Just from her outward appearance, I could see the signs.
Jet-black, decadent long hair in a hi-cut.
Her curves—chest, waist, and hips—were strikingly disproportionate to her overall slender fra, almost violent in contrast.
A body most n would lust after.
If she had wings and a tail, she’d objectively be a succubus.
‘…But to , she just looks like a spider.’
There wasn’t a shred of desire in .
Instead, I was simply curious.
“It doesn’t seem very efficient.”
The Bloodstone Cultists fundantally absorb everything their target has in order to grow.
Whether it’s useful or not, the belief is that anything accumulated is beneficial.
That’s why they absorb entire life forces.
But the Blood Witch was different.
“How do you think I absorb energy?”
“Whatever it is, wouldn’t it be less effective than direct absorption?”
She smirked, lifting the corner of her lips in a confident sneer.
Instead of answering, she lowered her hand.
Her fingers trailed down my torso, brushing against my abdon.
“You know…”
Swoosh.
Her touch glided as if searching for sothing.
“The great elental energy inside your dantian—it’s so pure, so refined. You must have filtered it over and over again to cultivate it.”
“…That’s right.”
“I do the sa.”
“…?”
“I don’t consu just anything. I select carefully—absorbing only the most pristine and immaculate energy. If you want, you can feel my dantian as well.” РÃΝ𝘖ᛒĚŠ
Her breath grazed my ear.
Sticky and hot, like she had already found her next al.
The wet sound of saliva pooling in her mouth followed.
“I only consu perfection. So, you should consider it an honor.”
Slither.
The Blood Witch slid smoothly off the desk.
And landed right onto my lap.
“You’re so perfect… I could just swallow you whole.”
Sitting atop my legs, she t my gaze.
Everything—her lower body, upper body, even her eyes—
Was pressed against .
Heat radiated from her.
A scent—bitter yet sweet—lingered between us.
Her crimson eyes shimred with excitent.
A thrill so intoxicating it reeked of indulgence.
Without realizing it, I leaned my upper body back.
“It’s no use running away.”
The Blood Witch whispered with a smile.
“You sll so good. No matter where you run, I can find you.”
Her breath, whispering by my ear, was hot.
Clamp.
A sharp pain pricked my ear.
She had bitten it.
— Haa.
Her following breath filled my ear, hot and damp.
Sothing slick and warm wrapped around my earlobe.
It was unmistakably her tongue.
“…You taste good.”
She sucked without regard for the faint lisp in her voice.
“Get a grip.”
I grabbed her shoulders and pushed her away.
A thin string of saliva stretched between us as she looked at .
“…Why? You’re enjoying it too.”
Her crimson eyes, flushed with excitent, observed .
She looked like a serpent savoring its prey before swallowing it whole.
A chill crawled up my spine—
A primal warning.
I firmly pointed at the book.
“I’m focusing on this right now.”
“One ti, and your mind will feel refreshed. The union of yin and yang is the principle of nature. Nothing about it is unnatural.”
The way she whispered made her seem like a nine-tailed fox this ti.
Or maybe it was because she was subtly moving her hips on top of .
“There’s even a real training thod like this… What do you think? Curious?”
She knew I was interested in training and discipline.
That was why she was using this approach.
Her temptation was no ordinary seduction.
But I remained calm.
I had no intention of giving my heart to this woman.
And my body reflected that.
Did she sense it from my expression?
The Blood Witch, who had been staring into my eyes, sighed.
“You were like this back when the Lust Potion spread in the Academy too.”
Lust Potion.
She must be referring to that ti I was suddenly overwheld by arousal.
“So it really was the work of the Bloodstone Cult.”
“I wasn’t the one who did it. But I did observe. I was curious about what kind of person you were.”
“…”
“That potion… If you had been ruled purely by lust, it would have engraved itself into your body. You would’ve lived the rest of your life in heat, like a mindless mutt. Eventually, you would’ve joined our cult without resistance. But you endured it.”
Ahahaha.
She laughed.
“You have quite the self-restraint, don’t you? Not laying hands on soone you’re not emotionally attached to.”
She stroked my head as if I were praiseworthy.
Monts like these made think—
How could I defeat this woman?
One thing was certain:
Now was not the ti.
“Don’t worry. I won’t fall for an alluring witch like you.”
“Hmmm.”
“Now move. I want to master these techniques as soon as possible.”
“Still, I’m glad you called alluring.”
Her crescent-moon eyes curved as she chuckled.
Swoosh.
A sweet scent tickled my nose before fading away.
“Fine. A man loses rational thought once his energy is drained. I’ll cooperate this ti.”
“…Thanks.”
“But don’t push away too much.”
Licking her lips, the Blood Witch stepped back.
Thanks to that, I could finally turn my attention back to the three Skill Books on the table.
As I stared at them, a thought crossed my mind.
I turned to her.
“I have a question.”
“Go ahead.”
“Why not just master all three at once?”
A brief silence.
And then—
“Ahahahaha!”
The Blood Witch clutched her stomach, laughing so hard her face twisted.
“Haah. You’re really sothing else, aren’t you?”
I shrugged.
Wiping away tears of laughter, she finally spoke.
“These are supre techniques, far beyond what a re human body can handle. Even the cult leader probably hasn’t mastered a single one completely.”
That made sense.
These Skill Books contained the very essence of the Bloodstone Cult—their deepest, most forbidden arts.
It wouldn’t be sothing that could be learned easily.
“Of course, you do have the talent for it. But think—why do you think the cult leader gave you all three?”
I considered her words.
“What happens if I master all three?”
The Blood Witch t my gaze and answered simply.
“You’ll beco the demon who rules the world from below— Heavenly Demon. ”
“…”
Not exactly an enticing title.
It reminded of what Oscar once said—
‘One of the possessed ones will destroy the world, and the other will save it.’
The Heavenly Demon was undoubtedly the one ant to destroy.
‘Well, not that I’ll master them all anyway.’
These were the Bloodstone Cult’s techniques.
They were fundantally based on absorbing life force—essentially, a vampiric system.
Even fully mastering a single one was likely impossible.
But then again…
Using them in my own way was a different matter altogether.
I reached for the first book.
Or at least, I tried to.
“…”
The air in the room was too thick, too heated to focus properly.
“Why are you looking at ? You prefer over the book after all, don’t you?”
The Blood Witch had taken a step back, her eyes still brimming with desire.
“…”
I let out a small sigh.
There was no way I could focus in this environnt.
‘Maybe I should ask for a place where I can be alone.’
Then I rembered—
Fantasy X Academy’s Training System.
[Secluded Training]
A buff that activated when one started learning in a completely isolated environnt.
Experience, proficiency, and knowledge acquisition—all of it could increase up to tenfold, depending on the conditions.
At first glance, it seed overpowered.
But the restrictions were severe.
The mont secluded training began, the player lost all control.
No movent. No actions. Nothing but staring at the screen.
Even small distractions weren’t allowed.
The system forced constant engagent, requiring players to keep tapping the screen manually.
An insane system.
‘In the ga, it was useless. There were always too many other things to manage for players to justify locking themselves away.’
But now?
The situation was different.
I was already kidnapped.
There was nothing else to do except learn these techniques.
There was no reason not to enter Secluded Training.
Of course, the Bloodstone Cult still saw as a prisoner.
Whether they would allow it was uncertain.
But—
This was the Bloodstone Cult.
They might actually support if it ant perfecting their techniques.
If that was the case…
“I need so cooperation from you.”
“Cooperation?”
She tilted her head.
It was the first ti I had ever asked her for anything.
That was probably why she looked so surprised.
“I need a place for Secluded Training.”
Her eyes widened.
