It’s Because of You

“Lady Sylvesta.”

“Yes, Professor.”

“Please stand and solve this problem.”

At the professor’s words, singling out Helen for not paying attention in class, she looked at the problem written on the desk.

It was an advanced formula for fusion magic.

Fusion magic was a spell formula that no wizard should ever be ignorant of.

It was a mandatory spell to know in order to use various types of magic in conjunction.

It was such an essential subject that even wizards who had not entered the academy were said to have all completed the basics of fusion magic.

And the spell written on the blackboard was an advanced version of such fusion magic.

It was an advanced spell formula needed to fuse four or more spells.

Helen was dumbfounded by the sight of the academy’s third-year students writing spells that they couldn’t even implement properly on the blackboard.

Wasn’t it blatant?

-If you want to skip a grade, you must solve this problem.

That meant the professor had that much expectation for her, but,

‘Did he think I wouldn’t know?’

Except for Max’s illusion magic, which was not properly taught anywhere, let alone the academy, there was almost nothing she didn’t know.

Even if she hadn’t been paying attention in class, this much was a very easy problem for her.

Even if others didn’t know, Helen had been familiar with the theory of this magic for a long time.

There was no way she wouldn’t know, as she was so serious about all her classes that she wanted to graduate next year.

Helen confidently stepped forward and wrote down the answer.

“Perfect. As expected, Lady Sylvesta. It was good to see you solve the problem so well, but don’t be complacent. You must always keep your mind and body in order.”

Obvious praise and coaxing words.

‘He’s probably going to say that I can establish Sylvesta’s prestige by skipping a grade.’

Helen predicted the professor’s next line.

“You’ll be able to establish Sylvesta’s prestige by skipping a grade.”

It was an obvious line that was exactly the same.

“Yes.”

She also gave a formal answer and returned to her seat.

‘Boring.’

In the past, she thought that each of these praises was an act of establishing the family’s prestige.

She always enjoyed it because she thought that elevating the family was what she, as a member of Sylvesta, should do.

But now, unlike before, it was very boring and tedious.

Rather.

-Is this all you can do?

-The name of Sylvesta will be tarnished.

-The head of the family will shed tears if he knows.

-It was terrible. Lady Sylvesta.

Max’s voice blaming her was clearly heard.

‘Am I crazy?’

Why that man?

What was so good about the man who always insulted her and Sylvesta?

Of course, the acts he did were good.

She felt sensations she had never felt before several times, and she felt countless unfamiliar emotions.

At first, she approached him under the pretext of Yuris’s weakness, but now that was not important.

“Haa.”

How did it come to this?

She tried to erase the thoughts that came to her mind.

She hadn’t been able to concentrate in class because of that thought, and it would be a problem if she still couldn’t get out of it.

In the end, Helen couldn’t concentrate properly until the end of the class.

She stopped masturbating by subtly touching her pussy with a pen, but that didn’t mean she was in a state to listen to the class properly.

“Haaa…”

After class, Helen sighed deeply and leaned back in her chair.

There was still a week left to take the exam.

‘I have to endure more here?’

Just imagining it made her breathless.

The desires that she couldn’t express were becoming more and more solid inside her.

‘Can I endure it?’

It didn’t seem like it would get better if she just kept holding back like this.

She had felt several times that the more she held back her desires, the more they tormented her head.

‘But I don’t want to go first…’

It was pride.

The pride of the Sylvesta family’s daughter.

She had even told Max that she wouldn’t visit him during the exam period.

It was a way to further strengthen her will.

But it turned out that it would be a shackle.

‘I didn’t know I would be so distracted.’

Numerous temptations tormented Helen, but she had never been so tormented.

Hadn’t she overcome all the temptations and come to this place?

It’s all because of that man.

‘Max…’

If that man hadn’t done nonsense with illusions, she wouldn’t have had to suffer like this.

Of course, it was Helen herself who asked him to show her the illusion, and it was her will to visit him again.

But that wasn’t important to Helen now.

“It’s all because of that person.”

If he hadn’t been a little less good, this wouldn’t have happened.

Wasn’t it that person who made her body unable to be satisfied even if she masturbated once a day?

“I have to go and argue with him.”

This was definitely not an excuse to see him because she wanted to see him.

It was just to argue about the unreasonable parts.

It was to scold Max for not being able to take the exam.

That was it.

I saw Helen who came to my store.

“Didn’t you say you wouldn’t come until the exam was over?”

“I did.”

“Is the exam over already? As far as I know, the Imperial Academy’s final exam is next week.”

“…”

Helen, who was glaring at me, bit her lip.

“You know that much?”

“Of course. There is no one among the nobles and wizards who does not know the schedule of the Imperial Academy’s final exam.”

When it was time for the final exam, a huge mana barrier was set up to cover the entire academy to prevent the magic used by the students from falling into the city and causing damage.

There was no way that wizards who felt mana would not know this.

I’m an illusion magician, but I’m also a magician.

I knew better than anyone that the final exam was still left.

There was no reason for Helen, who said she wouldn’t come until the exam was over, to come at all.

“Anyway, what brings you here?”

Helen, who heard my question, came into the store.

“I came to ask for responsibility.”

“Responsibility?”

“Yes. It’s because of you that I can’t concentrate on studying for the exam.”

“…Why is that my fault?”

“Of, of course it’s your fault! You made me like that! You keep making me, huh? Have those weird imaginations!”

Helen, who shouted angrily, glared at me.

“Isn’t that because Helen is a pervert?”

“Ugh! N, no! It’s not my fault, it’s definitely your fault…”

Helen, who was about to speak, closed her mouth.

“It’s only a loss for me if I get angry anyway.”

“You’ve become smarter, Helen.”

“…”

I asked Helen, who was staring at me.

“Then let’s go back to the main point. Do you want to do it?”

“…”

“You better answer honestly.”

“…No.”

Helen shook her head.

“You didn’t come to do it?”

“Th, that’s right! Do you think I’m a fool who can’t even take care of the exam period because of some desire? I am Helen de Sylvesta, the proud daughter of Sylvesta!”

“Then you can go back right away.”

“…”

As I was about to open the door again, Helen grabbed my hand.

“We’re not done talking yet.”

“Is there still something left to do?”

“Yes.”

Helen, who hesitated for a moment, slowly opened her mouth.

“…I want to make a bet.”

“A bet?”

“Yes!”

Why suddenly a bet?

‘Ah.’

I see.

“Are you here now to experience the illusion under the pretext of betting? That’s difficult. Don’t we have a promise with each other anyway? That we won’t do it until the exam. Why are you doing this when you just said you wouldn’t do it?”

“…That’s not it.”

Helen, whose face turned red, shook her head and denied.

“Wasn’t the bet about going into the illusion and finding out if it’s real or not?”

“I knew better than anyone that I couldn’t win that anyway. So I want to make a bet with a different event.”

This is unexpected?

“What do you want to bet on?”

“If I win, I want you to apologize and take responsibility for making me fall into lust, including the statement you just made.”

“Okay. Then what happens if the young lady loses?”

“Of course…”

“Will you apologize for the insults you just made to me? Is that what you’re saying?”

“How did you know?”

“I just had a feeling.”

This was the conclusion I came to because Helen seemed to have come without any particular purpose.

Anyone could see that she was nervous because of the desire that she couldn’t see the illusion.

This could be defined in one word.

Sexual frustration.

‘A noble young lady is so sexually frustrated that she breaks her own words and comes to find me.’

It was a part where I could see how much her heart moved.

“Wouldn’t the bet become boring if that becomes the betting condition?”

“Huh?”

I said to Helen, who was blinking her eyes.

“How about this. If Helen loses in this bet, she will experience the illusion in our store.”

“Ha, have an illusion experience?”

“Yes.”

As if my suggestion was embarrassing, she looked at me with a blank face for a while.

“You’ll be forced to do it. Inevitably.”

“…”

“I think we had the same kind of betting conditions when we first came to our store.”

“…I did.”

“It’s the same condition as then. If I win, Helen will be the tester to experience the newly improved illusion magic circle this time, and if I lose, I will apologize for the illusion magic I have done so far.”

“Responsibility?”

“Of course I have to take it. I will kneel down and praise the greatness of Sylvesta. That’s what Helen likes the most, right? Praising the family.”

“…”

“Helen can decide the event. I’ll give you that much.”

Helen, who was hesitating, looked at me and said.

“There is a game that nobles use to promote friendship and improvisation.”

“A game?”

“Yes.”

Helen put the bag she was holding on the desk.

“Do you know chess? It’s a game based on the equipment from the war. Do you know how to play?”

“I know.”

“As expected. Teacher also has some culture?”

Inside the bag placed on the desk were a luxurious wooden chessboard and chess pieces that seemed to be made of ivory.

“Let’s compete with this.”

Helen’s eyes sparkled.

Is this a desire to win?
