Upon returning to the Purple Magic Tower, Tower Master Yuna was restless.

Let me explain in a more detailed manner. With a strangely reddened face, she pressed down on the hem of her skirt with one hand while bringing her thighs together, moved very cautiously, and looked at me with raised eyes in a restless manner.

Because she was trying to press down her already short skirt, the top of it was halfway up her pelvis instead of her waist. As a result, a slight part of her underbelly was visible between the skirt and her top: her fair and white skin.

I casted a Self Sexual Desire Suppression Magic once more. Thanks to that, I was able to remain calm.

Why are you acting so timid?

That, uh, because you said it might suit me

What?

N-Nothing! Its nothing! Did you have a good visit to your hometown..?

Ah, well. It wasnt bad.

My home environment wasnt good in my previous life and I confirmed it didnt seem to be any better in this life either. And more important than that was a suspicion of human trafficking tied to the Purple Magic Tower.

Pink-Haired Lesbian explained that it was highly unlikely for the entire Purple Magic Tower to be involved in human trafficking. The first reason was that if there had been such large-scale movement, the Imperial Defense Bureau would have obtained intelligence regarding it already.

The second reason was that they didnt really have a need for humans. It wasnt like they were Black Wizards. But honestly, about 70% of the research conducted in the Purple Magic Tower did require people. Like for research about turning happiness into pain or something.

The reasons Pink-Haired Lesbian provided did not completely dispel my suspicions. Basically, the only thing that was certain was that nothing was certain.

And, if I had suspicions, all I needed to do was ask.

Going out of my way to investigate behind their backs only led to misunderstandings, thus becoming the dreadful trifecta of regret, obsession, and exhaustion. I decided to ask the fidgety Tower Master directly.

Tower Master. Youre hiding something from me, right?

N-n-n-n-n-n-no, I-Im not, thOUGH?!

Even saying that she was hiding something wouldnt have been as obvious as now. It was the face of someone who had too many things to confess and be guilty about, so she didnt know where to start. I sat on the office sofa and tapped my knees.

Lately, the Tower Master had gotten used to dangling onto some part of my body like a sloth whenever she was bored, so I prepared a place for her to hang onto for this time as well.

Lets sit down and talk. Together.

R-Right now, I-I think thats a bit. I-Ill just stand o-over h-here!

.

I guess it was a bit unsightly and indecent for a grown man and woman to stick right to each other. Even so, I felt a bit sad. After all, if a puppy that always begged to play with you suddenly went I dont wanna play with you and ran away, wouldnt a cold autumn wind brush past your heart?

Moreover, it wasnt an animal, but a person. I felt something beyond just emptiness; I was scared shitless. What the fuck? Did I do something wrong? Did she get grumpy because I went back to my hometown with only Pink-Haired Lesbian?

I started overthinking.

No, stay calm. I just need to ask one thing at a time. The Tower Master wasnt the type of person to play Twenty Questions of Guess why Im upset like my ex-girlfriend did. If I took it step by step, my unilateral misunderstanding would be resolved.

There were two things I wanted to confirm. The human trafficking suspicions of the Purple Magic Tower and in what manner the Tower Master viewed me.

Choosing the Purple Magic Tower was definitely my decision. I remembered that. I liked Purple Magic Tower Master Yuna. I could feel a clear sense of familial love from her. But how did she think of me?

The difference in our status was clear. I was a child of a commoner and she was of noble birth. The difference in level was also clear. She was an Archwizard who had achieved Sublimation and I was a lowly wizard who hadnt even achieved Metamorphosis.

It wouldnt be strange if she saw me as a pet or a toy. If thought about from that perspective, many things become understandable. Im talking about the physical affection that was so aggressive and extreme that it made me wonder if she even considered me a man.

If that was the case, then wasnt it natural for her to hide things from me?

The favor that the weak received was just a form of sympathy that could be withdrawn at any time.

In the end, even this life was the same. After all, wasnt a child from a rural village, who merely farmed potatoes, sold by his own father because he wasnt worth anything?

I was scared.

I had spent a whopping 10 years with the Tower Master. As such, even the courage to ask her now, right to her face, came from the trust that was built over the years. Stay calm. We had been together for a long enough time and.I think were close to each other.

Lets not get caught up in negative thoughts all by myself. Suspecting alone was not like me. Moreover, the probability of approaching the truth was low if I did so. I had to ask. Human trafficking, how she thought of me, purchases, my father who had sold me, the hillside slums, but ex-girlfriend, family.

My head was spinning so much that I malfunctioned, thus resulting in my mouth moving on its own.

Are you perhaps regularly purchasing other men?

?!

No, I mean, what I wanted to ask is, so likeDo you like me, Tower Master?

??!!!!

So what I mean is, are you, perhaps, collecting people without letting me know..

!!!!!!!!!

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

I was currently receiving emergency Nadenade.

The Tower Master, who issued a Code Yellow Alert to signal OoC1Out of Control upon seeing me spout nonsense with my eyes spinning, said she would give me a lap pillow, so I should lie down. And I promptly did so.

I had lain down in a direction where I could see the Tower Masters belly and thighs, but she, who was unusually sensitive today, stuttered, Ill kill you if you dont immediately turn your head the other way, in such a pretty manner. So, I had no choice but to lie down facing outward.

The Tower Masters hand brushed through my hair. She carefully stroked it, before suddenly getting all playful again by tying it up. My hair turned into a palm tree before returning to normal.

There was a ticklish sensation. And it was also a bit embarrassing.

Ther Tower Master, completely engrossed in playing with my hair, hummed a tune while braiding it. I wonder. What had my hairstyle turned into now?

Thinking I should break this slightly awkward and hesitant atmosphere, I spoke up.

Can I touch your calves?

Whats with that ambiguous request.?!

Its said that one should always start negotiations with the big things.

How trivial of a request were you planning to ask.

Unexpectedly, it seemed like she was allowing it, so I gently massaged the back of her calves. It wasnt meant to really mean anything, you know? I mean, didnt it feel good to squish something soft? Like slime.

.

Someone from the Purple Magic Tower / Someone impersonating them has been consistently receiving people.

In exchange for my trust, I playfully asked.

Will you save me even if I dont do anything?

Eung, Ill save you.

But why?

Because youre my first friend

.

Before you came, the people of the Purple Magic Tower were afraid of me. They saw me as something moredistant than a human like them. Although we were in the same Magic Tower, we only researched on our own. And I deliberately tried not to approach them either.

But you were cute even when we first met.

E-Eung, its thanks to you that we could joke around with each other, share stories, and all that.

I only remember doing research, though.

Yes, that research. Like when you went around asking to hear the sad masterpieces of everyone you met while saying it was to collect data for sessions, or scattered One-Time Wish Vouchers in order to get body data scans..

It was tough retrieving all those. I had a headache making excuses to Senior Scarface who kept wanting to swap bodies just once.

Are you perhaps going off-topic because youre shy?

Yes.

Friend, she says.

Yuna said it was thanks to me, but strictly speaking, I was the one being helped. Even now, I was still receiving help, wasnt I?

The simulation I had longed for was already completed. Now, it was just a matter of occasional maintenance and gradual version updates while enjoying my hobby of playing TRPG.

I had so much I wanted to show. The charm of TRPG lay in the ability to enjoy worlds across a tabletop. With simulations, the experiences could be broadened even further. I could show what the sea looked like to those who had never seen it before and provide a family to those without one.

If they dreamt of being a Hero, I could make them one and if they aspired to be knights, I could grant them a sturdy body. A lover to those desiring love. A formidable foe for those seeking a battle.

If I managed to obtain the Dragon Heart by slowly coaxing the Imperial Prince and Princess, it would be the icing on the cake. With nearly limitless energy, it might even be possible to run a server that operated indefinitely like in game fantasy novels. Perhaps, an entire Open World could be created.

But these were as good as achieved already.

Thus, the section where I had to fill out my lifes goal remained blank.

Even if I couldnt repay the kindness I received tenfold, I did at least want to give as much as I received. I thought it would be niceif I could be of help to Yuna, who had always been looking out for me.

In order to not forget this thought, I made a note of it in the highest place in my mind, where it could never be submerged.

I was about to head to the Academy soon. I would be separated from the Tower Master for a while.

For a moment, I pondered what I could do to help the Tower Master from there. And then, it dawned on me. What a wizard needed most was a greater budget. And the higher the Magic Towers popularity, the more budget they would receive.

.Youre not having some strange thoughts, right?

I should lure the Academy students by making Illusion Magic go viral.

And creating wonderful memories for their school days would be great too. After all, there were plenty of events stored in my head that could make academy life enjoyable. Whether it was the Tower of Trials, Hidden Pieces, raising Illusion Pets similar to Tamagotchi, or even suspiciously suspicious martial arts manuals. I had it all.

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

Imperial Prince.

Next, Ill explain the power dynamics within the Academy. There are two major factions. They are called the Gold Faction and the Rose Insignia Faction. The Gold Faction is centered around the best disciple of the Gold Tower Master, who is a key figure, and is based on the overwhelming wealth of the Gold Magic Tower

Imperial Prince.

The Rose Insignia Faction is also known as the Nobility Faction, formed around the Duke of White Puritys only daughter and is an Anti-Gold Faction group. Though lacking in wealth, their unique leadership and broad-mindedness hold the academys

IMPERIAL PRINCE!!

Stop interrupting the flow, Crazy Wizard. What is it?

Second Prince Irid looked down at me with an annoyed expression and crossed legs. I was definitely taller than him even if we were sitting, so how was he able to look down on me? Was this some secret technique of the Imperial Family?

I wore a genuinely curious expression and asked.

Why do I have to listen to all this?

Because someone like you is only able to cause less trouble if you know the Academys power structure.

No, that wasnt enough. What I envisioned was the curiosity of a seven-year-old boy. An endless barrage of Why? until his curiosity is satisfied!

With determination, I bombarded him with Whys.

Why?

Because you can only fulfill your duties as an Academy Professor without getting fired if you cause less trouble.

Why?

Because only then can we use your abilities to enhance overall strength and provide practical experience for all the students in the academy.

Why?

Because boosting the Academys overall strength elevates the Empires national power while also solidifying your position within the Academy.

Why?

Because a strong position in the Academy ensures long-term employment, thus allowing you to closely monitor and capture any Black Wizard fraktsiya3means spy in Russian that are hiding inside.

Wh. No, wait, seriously why for that?

Because I told you to.

Ah.

No wonder the conditions were so good. It turns out I wasnt being sent to the Academy to have fun.
