Chapter 249 – Academy Arc (22) – Private Tutoring 5
250. Academy Arc (22) – Private Tutoring 5
One day, back at Charlotte’s mansion.
“Meeeooow!”
“Hyaang… Ah, ahh! Shasha. …Ugh. She got away.”
“Hehe. It’s because you hugged her too tightly.”
The Bengal cat with perked-up ears, the one Charlotte was raising, seemed annoyed when Charlotte hugged her too tightly against her chest. It smacked her chin and ran away. It stood in front of the study door, looking intently as if asking to be let out. She reluctantly grumbled and let the cat out. She had brought it specially because they had talked about cats before.
And as always, it was time to study magic.
We also went outside for practice, and my magic skills had improved noticeably compared to the beginning. I could use basic magic like fire arrows and ice arrows, and their power was quite impressive. It took a while to cast, but Charlotte said that if I studied the theory thoroughly and memorized the formulas, it would become faster and more proficient.
“Amazing, my eyes weren’t wrong. To learn basic magic this quickly.”
“Well, it’s still slow to cast… I heard you’re already working on advanced magic, Charlotte?”
“Hehe. I’m aiming to become a great mage like my mother, after all. Well then, shall we take a break and then study theory?”
After eating the fruit brought by the maids, we returned to the study.
The place where we always studied.
A series of strange experiences naturally came to mind.
As we opened the thick books and studied magic theory, I was inwardly conscious of her. Some time had passed since we opened the books, but there was no action from Charlotte’s side.
The maids had clearly been pushing her with all sorts of suggestive hints. So I thought Charlotte would change quickly, but her current tense expression was very different from a seductive attitude.
As I was thinking this, Charlotte, who had been glancing at me, opened her mouth.
“…I’ll try something different today.”
“Something different?”
“Yes, give me your arm for a moment.”
I tilted my head inwardly at her sudden request to extend my arm.
Charlotte, with a somewhat nervous face, rolled up my sleeve and grabbed my arm.
-Woooong….
Soon, I began to feel the flow of mana from her.
…………
…………
Charlotte had been agonizing a lot before acting. But she decided to use magic, thinking that she wasn’t doing anything particularly bad.
“Charlotte. What is this…?”
“…This is to check how smoothly your mana circulates. Now, focus, and try to accept my mana as it resonates with you.”
“Okay.”
A slight circulation of mana began to occur between the two of us. Soon, Charlotte slowly changed the operation of her mana and cast a mental magic spell on Raul. She had told him to speak honestly before using the confession magic before, and the magic she was casting now was a similar mental magic.
“…If you can hear me, answer my words.”
“Yes, I can hear you.”
“Shasha is a troublemaker, repeat it three times.”
“………………Shasha is a troublemaker. Shasha is a troublemaker. Shasha is…”
Charlotte checked a few more times like that. At first, she was a bit hesitant and nervous, but it seemed like the magic was working well. In the first place, very few people can resist mental magic that interferes from such a close range. Unless they were a hero or a saint.
“…Hmm.”
As long as the control was secure, it wouldn’t be harmful to the body… She had no intention of misusing it. She just wanted to accept what the maids had told her, and she wanted to confirm Raul’s true feelings to see if it was correct.
How many people wouldn’t use their power if they had it?
Charlotte justified herself like that.
Looking at Raul, who was standing blankly, she asked him various questions.
Then, she asked about Raul’s ex-girlfriend, which she had been curious about from what she had heard before. It was a story she felt uneasy about letting go.
…This much should be okay.
“You said you broke up with your ex-girlfriend quickly. Why? And what do you mean by ‘we didn’t match’?”
“…………That’s…”
Even though Raul was under the influence of mental magic, he seemed hesitant. She was thinking about whether she should focus on her mana again when he opened his mouth.
And the story that came out was quite stimulating for her, who was a virgin.
“My girlfriend was very small. About this much below my chest… It was difficult because my dick wouldn’t go in during our first time, and even after that, she said it hurt a lot when I put it in her pussy. It was hard for me and hard for my girlfriend… So we naturally grew apart and broke up.”
“…………………………Ugh.”
Charlotte had never imagined that a sexual topic would be involved. No wonder he couldn’t say it last time…
“Well then…”
She was going to go in gradually, but since a sexual topic had come up, Charlotte went straight to the point.
“What do you think of my appearance lately…? You know, I dress a bit lightly… Don’t you think it’s vulgar?”
Even though the other person was under mental magic, she spoke cautiously, which was also part of her personality when talking to herself.
“Not at all. It’s incredibly hot. To the point where I get bad thoughts.”
“R-really? You said it’s incredibly hot.”
Charlotte’s face turned red as she rolled her eyes around. She thought that now he would definitely tell her, so she probed a little further.
“What kind of bad thoughts do you have specifically…?”
“First, I want to grab those big breasts and suck them roughly.”
“S-suck them? Ugh…!”
Charlotte instinctively protected her breasts with both hands. And she muttered in a sulky voice.
“Ah, nothing comes out, so what kind of delusions… How vulgar.”
“And then I want to get on top of you, Charlotte…”
“W-wait. Just a moment. Stop! Stooop!!”
“………….”
At Charlotte’s shout, Raul’s mouth closed.
She rearranged her scattered mana and regained her composure.
The content of his words had gone too far.
Of course, it wasn’t that she was strongly repulsed.
The explicit vulgar words that Raul was saying were really embarrassing, but she was also getting a little excited. She was the one who cast the mental magic in the first place. Honestly, everyone can have dirty thoughts in their mind.
Charlotte hesitated alone and then asked again tentatively.
“Do you… like me that much…?”
“…………Yes.”
“…………………….”
Charlotte’s ears turned an even deeper red.
To find out such inner thoughts with mental magic, she felt pathetic, but the sweetness that accompanied it was unavoidable. He liked her… At this moment, Raul seemed to be feeling embarrassed instinctively as well, and his face seemed to have turned slightly reddish.
“But you’re holding back? Even though you have such bad thoughts and you l-like me…”
“If it’s the Allton family… Charlotte, you’re far above me, a commoner. It would be difficult.”
Raul added.
“And… I can’t even touch you, but sometimes when you dress like that, I think it’s too much. Actually, there’s a female student who’s been approaching me at the academy lately, and I’m wondering if I should turn my eyes and focus on reality rather than an ideal.”
‘S-so it was because of the difference in status, just like the maids said? …I was too naive, unlike myself, since this is my first time. More than that, another female student is already aiming for him…’
Charlotte felt a thrill at him calling her an ideal.
Perhaps she had no choice but to take the initiative.
It was the first time she had become so strongly conscious of someone as a woman. Besides, he had been constantly worrying about it too.
‘The maids are right. Raul is just a commoner. I was too naive. I am Charlotte Bronde of the Allton family. I should act like myself. I can get what I want with my own hands.’
‘Since you’re in an advantageous position, just do as you please.’
The two maids had kept telling her that.
‘He’s just a commoner anyway.’
‘He’s already fallen for you, so you can do whatever you want with him.’
‘Act for yourself, miss. You’ve been holding back a lot, haven’t you?’
‘Just do what you want, miss. We’ll do our best to keep it a secret…’
‘Okay… Then, shall we move forward a bit.’
Charlotte began to ponder hard on her own.
Let’s take the initiative.
But her head was already a mess, not knowing what order to do things in.
Should she keep up the physical contact?
Should she k-kiss him? If so, when?
Or should she go to the next step?
Is it too much of a jump at once?
Should she go back to physical contact?
But that feels too blocked…
No, maybe something more aggressive would be better in the current situation…
‘…Mastering all the advanced magic would be easier than this.’
She understood the situation, but she also felt resentful towards Raul for not approaching her like a man. But that thought didn’t last long.
‘Haa.’
She only knew about romance and sex from the romance novels she had skimmed through.
Her head was overloaded, so she decided to think about it again slowly.
In the end, the only indicator she had was experience. When she tapped Raul’s arm with her chest, his reaction was so good.
‘Oh…’
Then, Charlotte suddenly remembered those moments. When she played dirty tricks, Raul would keep making up questions to see her chest closer and feel her chest rubbing against him. And she would grin and enjoy Raul’s reaction.
That kind of feeling.
So… if she threw out more bait more boldly, wouldn’t Raul catch on and play along?
She suddenly had that expectation.
‘Yes. That’s it……’
After a while, Charlotte, having finished thinking, withdrew the magic. Since she had interfered with his subconscious as much as possible, Raul probably wouldn’t remember.
“The flow of mana is quite good, you’ll have no problem continuing to learn magic.”
“Is that so. You suddenly grabbed my arm, so I was like, ‘Huh…?’ What was that about?”
“Hehe. What were you thinking? Well then, shall we study again?”
With those words, Charlotte turned the page and started studying again.
How much time had passed?
When she thought the atmosphere was ripe enough, she began to act.
“Aaaah…”
“What’s wrong all of a sudden, Charlotte?”
“I think I have a cramp in my leg. Once I get a cramp, it doesn’t go away easily…”
Charlotte was actually crossing her legs a bit, so she said that while uncrossing them.
“I’m sorry, but could you massage it for me? It keeps tingling.”
Did it sound awkward? She looked at Raul, her heart pounding inside.
That was because below the shorts Charlotte was wearing, her alluring thighs and calves were exposed. It was not strange to feel a strange sensation. Moreover, she was wearing light lady’s slippers, which meant that if she took them off, she would be barefoot.
“…………Of course.”
“Oh my, then… here, please?”
Charlotte turned her body towards Raul and stretched out her beautiful bare leg.
Raul, with a flushed face, held her leg as if it were something precious. And he began to massage it, touching it little by little.
Swoosh, swoosh….
‘Haa… It, it feels strange……’
It was a strange experience to entrust her skin to a man for the first time. Raul’s warm hand was gently stroking her calf back and forth, and a thrilling sensation she had never felt before washed over her.
Soon, Raul’s touch was softer than she had expected, and as time passed, she felt strangely calm.
In short, it felt good.
Raul massaged her leg, squeezing it little by little, and then pressed down on the soles of her feet to loosen them.
“Ugh… Ugh. Hmmm… Ummm…”
“……………….”
Raul flinched when Charlotte let out a pleasant voice, and it was clear that he was focusing on her intensely. Raul paused for a moment and then started massaging her leg again.
At that sight, Charlotte felt a strange sense of accomplishment in her heart.
She smiled unconsciously and made mischievous eyes.
Moreover, Raul glanced at her and then his hand was slowly moving up from her knee towards her thigh. Charlotte blinked her eyes seductively at his suggestive and alluring actions.
‘He’s horny.’
“Aah… Then, please do the upper part too~”
“…Yes. Then.”
Touch, touch.
Raul’s hand freely caressing her soft leg.
‘Aah… This is it. This is it……’
Charlotte looked at Raul with glazed eyes and raised the corners of her mouth in satisfaction.
She just needed to find a suitable reason to create bait.
She had confirmed his true feelings, and it didn’t matter that she didn’t know about normal dating. She just had to do it her way.
“Ugh. Hmmm… Ungh… Yes, there. Focus on that spot~”
“Here, you mean?”
“Yes~ Hmmm…….”
And so, the two of them were able to enjoy a suggestive skinship while pretending not to know each other for a while.
