Chapter 24: True Education…?feat Assistant

“H-Haa… G-Go away…! D-Don’t come near me…!!”

Helena resists desperately as I approach. But unfortunately for her, she’s under the full effect of the attraction potion, and her strength is no match for Allen’s.

Honestly, this feels less like an attraction potion and more like a really strong aphrodisiac.

She’s trying to resist, but she’s not exactly fawning over me… she’s just panting heavily, like she’s in heat.

I just wanted her to be more compliant… I didn’t expect this…

Maybe Allen messed up when he made the attraction potion and ended up creating an aphrodisiac instead?

This is going to be less about education and more about… training.

…My instincts say this isn’t so bad, but logically, it deviates from my original plan.

“Huh?”

“Haa… haa…”

“…What’s this?”

A small, reddish, heart-shaped pupil appears in Helena’s eyes. Does this mean it’s working…? I mean, you see this kind of thing all the time on… certain websites…

It’s… a little ridiculous. But it’s also fascinating that something like this actually exists.

“Sigh…”

“Haa… A-Allen… No, f*ck! What am I… Hmph…!”

Helena keeps trying to speak, then stopping herself, as if she’s fighting an internal battle.

“Are you struggling?”

“Haa… haa…”

Slap!

“Hmph!”

And why is she making that sound when I slap her?

Anyway, it’s time to begin. Time to unleash Allen’s pent-up frustration.

“Hey, answer me. Are you struggling?”

“Y-Yes, you bastard… Hmph…”

“Yeah, you probably are. But you know what? When you guys were tormenting me, do you think I wasn’t struggling?”

“Wh-What nonsense…”

Slap!

“Haah!”

“Shut up for now. Only answer when I tell you to.”

“Hmph…”

“I tried to talk to you guys countless times. But you didn’t give a sh*t about my opinion. Yerin was always clinging to me, Lilia just gave me chores, Angelina treated me like a punching bag, and you… you just swore at me.”

“You wanted to talk about why I left, right? If you were treated like that, would you have stayed? Answer me.”

“B-But that’s because you were… f*cking useless…”

“Hmm… Yes, that’s a very Helena-like answer.”

Slap!

“Kyaah!”

“Our proud elf probably doesn’t know, does she? How hard I… no, Allen worked to become someone worthy of the hero’s party, how much he accomplished.”

“But since I was so obedient, you probably just saw me as a s*ave. And now, that s*ave has escaped.”

“Why are you trying to catch me again? If I’m as useless as you say, wouldn’t it be better to find another s*ave?”

“…Answer me.”

“Oh, so you’re not going to answer me now?”

Slap!

“…Hmm?”

What, why isn’t she reacting? Did I hit her too hard? Did she pass out?

No, this is just the beginning. She can’t collapse now.

“Hey, get up. I didn’t give you that potion for you to pass out. Get the f*ck up.”

Slap slap

“Haa… haa…”

Oh, good. I don’t know if she woke up or if she was like this all along, but she’s still panting.

…But something’s different.

Before, her panting sounded like a mix of arousal and exhaustion…

Now…

“Haa… haa…”

…It sounds like the panting of an animal in heat.

“…Ah, f*ck. Seriously.”

“Haa… Ah, Allen…♥♥”

…I didn’t mean to push her this far.

My plan was for Helena to be unable to resist, but still able to listen to Allen’s words. It was supposed to be a re-education disguised as training, to make her understand what she did wrong and how much Allen suffered.

But this… it’s like I’ve created another Yerin.

I said there was a heart-shaped pupil in her eye earlier… Now it’s bigger, more prominent.

Damn it, this novel isn’t supposed to be R-19, and this isn’t some H-site.

Why is this happening…? Attraction, you said. Attraction! This is just… a mindless female.

Grab

“…Huh?!”

“Haa…♥ Allen… this…”

Helena clings to my leg, trying to bury her face in my crotch.

“Hey, no. Get off.”

“Hmph…”

I push her face away.

Grab

“Kyaah!”

I grab her by the hair.

Slap slap slap

“Hey, snap out of it. You can’t be like this. This is inconvenient for me.”

I’m not slapping her as punishment this time, but to try and bring her back to her senses…

“Kyaah♥ Haaang♥”

“F*ck, I’m going crazy…”

She’s not snapping out of it. She’s completely gone, getting turned on by this.

“Should I give her an antidote?”

This is worse than when she was in her right mind.

At least then, she was strong-willed and capable, and we could talk. But in this state, she’s completely irrational, driven only by her desires.

I need to find an antidote and give it to her…

“Ah, Alleeeen…♥ I-I’m soooorry…”

“What?”

“I… I knooow… I-I did terrible things… I knooow… but hearing it from Allen… I understand even more…”

Oh?

Cancel the antidote. This… this is interesting.

Her breathy voice and cutesy tone are a bit much, but if we can actually talk… that’s something.

I should hear her out.

“…So. You knew?”

“Y-Yes…! H-Helena knows she was wroong…”

“What did you do wrong?”

“I… I said mean things to Allen… and… I looked down on Allen…”

…Something’s off. She sounds… passive.

Could it be?

“What should happen when you do something wrong?”

“P-Punishment! I need to be punished, Allen… Hit me again, like before…♥”

Damn it, she’s just trying to satisfy her own desires. She’s just repeating what I said, not genuinely repentant.

Let’s change the plan. It’s too late for an antidote.

Instead of making her regret her actions, I’ll go in a different direction. A direction that’s ultimately more convenient for me.

Slap!

“You’re hopeless.”

“Kyaah♥ I liiike it…♥ More♥”

“Alright, if you want punishment, you’ll get it. But in return, I’m never going back to your party. Deal?”

“Huh?”

“I’m not going back to the party. Understand?”

Of course, I wouldn’t go back even if she asked, but let’s make it official.

Plan B: Take advantage of Helena’s current state to get what I want.

“Ah… b-but… the p-party…”

But she’s not reacting immediately. Hearing those words seems to have brought her back to her senses a little. Her voice and tone are somewhat normal again.

No matter what Helena and I talk about, her ultimate goal is to bring me back to the party. She can’t deny that.

“…Then fine. Just buy your potion when the master comes out and leave.”

“Aah… b-but Allen…♥”

“I have nothing more to say to you. Just get lost.”

Click

I unlock the door.

“Huh…? R-Really? You’re really not going to do anything…? Why… why? I was wrong, Allen… Punish… punish me more…♥”

“Just go. The master’s experiment should be over soon.”

“…”

Helena is probably torn between the last vestiges of her rationality and the overwhelming instincts that are about to consume her.

‘Should I leave, for the sake of the party and my future? Or should I stay and indulge in this momentary, intense pleasure?’

Either way, it’s a win for me. The latter is much better, of course, but even the former isn’t a loss.

…I never thought the attraction potion would be this effective.

Honestly, I just made a plan and didn’t expect much, but this is turning out to be quite an extraordinary situation.

“…?”

“O-Okay…! Y-You don’t have to come back to the party, Allen… B-But instead…”

“Can I… can I come see Allen again later…?”

What is this?

“…Alone?”

“Yes…”

“Why?”

“T-To see Allen’s face…”

To see my face? What kind of ridiculous reason is that?

Is she trying to trick me somehow…?

…Wait, no. That’s not it.

Has she… completely fallen for me?

Maybe I can indulge my own desires a little…

“…There are conditions. Three of them.”

“Wh-What are they…?”

“First, when we’re alone, you will call me ‘Master.’ You’ve looked down on me as an idiot until now, but let’s switch the roles of master and s*ave. And you will use honorifics.”

“Yes… Ah, yes! Master♥”

It worked? Making a beautiful elf my s*ave… this is quite something. I never thought this would actually happen.

“Second, you will never mention the hero’s party again. When we meet, it will be a private meeting, not an official one as members of the hero’s party.”

“Yes…”

“Finally, you will space out your visits. Once a week, at most.”

“N-No…! What am I supposed to do in the meantime…?”

“Think. If you leave every day, won’t the others find out?”

“…Is it bad if they find out?”

“What do you think they’ll say if they find out about this relationship? Yerin will definitely go berserk, and Lilia and Angelina will…”

“Okay, then…”

“Good. The three conditions are agreed upon. Then…”

Slap!

“Hmph…”

I don’t know how long the attraction potion lasts. If I send Helena back after it wears off, I might get assassinated by an elf.

But this situation itself… it’s good. I’ve already got Helena under my thumb.

She’ll obey me, even if it’s forced.

I know I keep saying this, but I never thought this would actually happen.

Am I… getting myself into something I can’t handle, something far removed from a peaceful, slow life…?
