Chapter 238 – Academy Arc (12) – So Why A Cross-Dresser?
239. Academy Arc (12) – So Why a Cross-Dresser?
Kneeling between my legs was a petite figure. Seeing Lewin obediently listening to my words, I felt a pleasant sensation, as if I had acquired a new pet.
Wouldn’t she like it if I treated her like a pet in reality?
Suddenly, Mary, who had been imitating a dog, came to mind.
“Woof…♥?”
Swish, swish, swish….
I stroked her head, then leaned forward and gently scratched her chin.
It was clearly an act of treating her as something less than human, but it was hard to find any sign of dislike from Lewin. Moreover, as I gazed intently at her with a serious expression, focusing on the act, Lewin trembled, as if feeling a thrilling sensation inside, and made a seductive expression.
“You’re really cute….”
“Hauu…?”
“I’m saying you’re cute. And you listen to me so well… you’re like a bitch, so hot.”
As I spoke with a serious face, as if it were the truth, and with a blush of lust, she found sincerity in my words. Of course, it was a blatant expression, but for Lewin, such explicit expressions might be a method.
She probably didn’t have any confidence in her own figure, to be honest. If anything, it was more like an inferiority complex.
So, I had to make her fully aware that internal factors like ‘obedience’ and ‘flattery’ more than made up for external factors like figure and appearance. Only then would she gain self-confidence and be motivated to seek pleasure as a female.
Then, I would soon be able to see Lewin, who would ‘want’ to become even cuter and more obedient.
“I, I’m hot… …Uuuu♥”
Looking at her expression, it seemed that an indescribable, erotic feeling was flowing into Lewin.
“If you keep listening to me like this, I’ll keep finding you cute. Next time, I’ll give you an even bigger reward… okay? From now on, you’ll be mine whenever I want.”
“Y-yes… I’ll, I’ll be Raul’s…♥”
“Hehe. Good, you’re a good girl.”
After stroking her head once more, the atmosphere gradually shifted, and an awkward mood followed. Whether it was ‘mine’ or whatever, once we returned to reality and our usual state, it was a different story. And Lewin’s face was burning hot all by herself.
“Ugh…………”
Well, of course. The room was still a mess, soaked with her fluids. The fact that she had been doing such vulgar, animalistic things all by herself didn’t just disappear.
“You feel like you’re going to die of embarrassment if you come to your senses now, right?”
-Nod, nod
“Then, should you suck my dick some more?”
“Hyaak….”
My dick, which had already started to stand erect again, made Lewin’s eyes widen in surprise.
“Ah, th-that… …Uung♥”
I grabbed the back of Lewin’s head and slowly pulled her towards my dick. Then, she put her nose to my dick, which was giving off a lustful scent, and sniffed it lightly.
“Haup…♥ Slurp. Chup. Slurrrp. …Chomp, chomp, chomp, chomp♥”
She began to deliciously suck on my sperm-soaked dick again.
…………
Indeed, once she came to her senses, shame rose up in Lewin.
I left Lewin, who was trying to stop me, and helped with the cleanup. I even took away my pillow, which she had been stubbornly trying to protect, saying she would do it herself. My pillow was completely soaked, especially the vertical part, and it was quite amusing to imagine exactly how she had been masturbating. She must have been riding it like a horse, changing directions.
“From now on, if it’s hard to hold back, tell me honestly. That’s an order.”
“……Okay.”
After the cleanup, I asked the dorm supervisor for extra bedding and got a set. And although it was a bit late, we were able to have dinner together at the dining hall, which thankfully hadn’t closed yet.
Since the place was practically empty, I decided to ask her why she had been cross-dressing.
Lewin was from a small duchy called ‘Liapol,’ which was attached to Glishen. Since it wasn’t strong, it had been absorbed by Glishen a decade or so ago.
However, there was a peculiar clause in Liapol’s law: women were not allowed to inherit the family’s legacy. The man who inherited it had to be a real blood relative of the family, not an adopted one. They could bring in an external man through a marriage alliance, but eventually, everything would be taken away according to the rules, so who would want to do that?
Many nobles of Liapol had helped in the process of absorbing the duchy, so Glishen was respecting the local traditions to some extent.
Lewin’s biological father was an old bourgeois of the region, and unfortunately, he had lost his only biological son in an accident and had become bedridden with grief. At that time, another family with a grudge against them had politically pressured them, and as a result, the local baron and family heads were about to gobble up all their assets.
That’s when a brilliant idea came up: they quickly brought in a 13-year-old daughter of a concubine who lived far away, disguising her gender. People didn’t know her well, and her unique ash-colored hair clearly showed that she was a member of the family.
That was Lewin.
It wasn’t that she was an extraordinary filial daughter who agreed to it; the family head, knowing that she had lived a meager life, offered her and her concubine a deal with the condition of a wealthy life. From that point on, Lewin had lived as a man for several years, and according to her wish (or rather, semi-threat) to develop herself through swordsmanship, she came to the academy.
She would probably continue to act until her newly born younger brother grew up. But even if all the rights were properly transferred, would the family head allow Lewin to cause trouble by revealing her cross-dressing?
Having almost been burned once, they must be working hard to launder their assets.
“You weren’t from an ordinary background. So, you wouldn’t have known anyone here?”
“There is one person. Ferris might also be from Liapol. Of course, she wouldn’t know someone like me.”
“Ferris?”
“Yeah, the Bourbon family was really powerful in the Duchy of Liapol. Probably even more so than now.”
I never expected to hear about Ferris here.
Considering that she was plotting to assassinate a baron, she probably wasn’t in a position that was too far removed from power.
Is she active in a place where it’s difficult for women to gain power?
That was an interesting story.
“I see. How frustrating… From now on, let’s try to learn the joys of living as a woman little by little?”
“………………..”
-Nod
Lewin, with a small spoon in her mouth, had a blush on her cheeks.
Oh, you cute thing.
…………

My diligent academy life continued.
Even though I had given her private lessons last time, Charlotte was surprisingly difficult to meet. Even though she and the Alton family were quite well-connected, it seemed that she was busy meeting various acquaintances, probably because it was the beginning of the semester. Still, we had made an appointment to meet again soon.
I also diligently trained in the swordsmanship department and continued to develop myself.
On a day when there was a theory class in the department.
After class, I looked around the hallway, searching for the male student I had recently become close with.
‘That Edmon, he said we’d have lunch together, where did he go?’
He wasn’t a particularly important guy, nor was he a Lewin mk2. I could ignore him if I wanted to, but in an environment where I was overly surrounded by women, the presence of a same-sex friend like Edmon gave me a different kind of stability. We even sometimes exchanged dirty jokes.
After wandering around for a bit, I saw Edmon sitting on the outer railing of the department building. I naturally tried to greet him, but his face looked a bit strange.
His face was swollen, as if he had been beaten by someone.
‘Who the hell did this?’
He was the first same-sex friend I had truly made since coming to this world.
He had a slightly cheeky tendency, but he was a decent guy.
I felt inexplicably bad.
“Hey, what’s with your face?”
“What? Is that Raul… Never mind, just go away.”
“You think I’ll just go away? Who beat you up?”
Edmon hesitated, as if it wasn’t a big secret.
“Don’t be like that, just tell me. Let me hear it. What if I get beaten up for doing something wrong?”
I sat down right next to him, making it clear that I was going to listen, so Edmon sighed and began to tell me his story.
As I had learned while living here, most of the swordsmanship department was under the influence of Bourbon, and the magic department was under the influence of Alton.
There was no particular reason for the division, it was just that there were many practical benefits for the students.
Even if Ferris herself was in the political science and diplomacy department, the Bourbon family itself was considered a prestigious swordsmanship family, and the Alton family had produced super-elite mages, so…
Of course, it wasn’t like there was an extreme division, and there were quite a few exceptions for political and other reasons. Still, roughly 30% of each department was under the influence of each of the noble families… This was a significant number.
It seemed that they were fiercely clashing behind the scenes.
In Edmon’s case, his family was economically tied to the Alton family. Because of this, he had almost no allies in the department, and it was easy for him to be disliked by the students on Ferris’s side.
What happened to him was simple. Edmon, who was less skilled, had luckily gotten a chance to attend a special swordsmanship lecture, but a noble student from the Bourbon line had called him out and pressured him to give up his spot. Edmon had tried to be as humble as possible and asked them to let him off, but in the end, he had been beaten up.
He didn’t have a powerful backer like a noble,
Nor was he skilled enough to have a promising future.
Moreover, since he was just a commoner, there was no reason not to beat him up for being so arrogant. This wasn’t just happening to Edmon.
Even though they were all equal academy students, they naturally divided into groups of commoners and nobles. It was as if the nobles’ sense of privilege was actually amplified in a place that was supposed to be equal. Perhaps it was because they were putting people who were not equal in the same place that it made the young boys and girls so arrogant.
There was something like a disciplinary committee, but if you snitched, you could get targeted even more, so they just endured it like this.
“So, what happened?”
“Hehe. I got beaten up because I didn’t give up my spot. Well, my body is a bit sore, but I think I’ll be fine by the time I go to the special lecture tomorrow.”
“That’s a relief. What a shitty thing to happen.”
“Yeah, it’s really shitty. …Ptooey!”
Still, it seemed that he was quite determined, considering that he had gotten what he wanted. Looking at Edmon with new eyes, I thought about getting him a potion.
…………
After having lunch with Lewin, we walked together through the vast grounds of the academy.
But as the saying goes, speak of the devil, and there she appears. Since we had been talking about Ferris, she actually appeared on her own.
It wasn’t Ferris herself who appeared, but a female student who approached me and delivered a message.
“Miss Ferris… no, Mr. Ferris would like to have a brief meeting with Mr. Raul. She’s in the department building right now. Do you have some time, Mr. Raul?”
“Right now?”
“Yes, please follow me.”
Her confident attitude made it clear that she wasn’t considering a refusal. After asking her to wait for a moment, I looked at Lewin, who was next to me. But she was looking up at me with a strange expression.
“What’s wrong, Lewin? Do you have any idea what’s going on?”
“Yeah. I think she’s probably asking you to join Ferris’s group… I’ve seen senior students being invited like this a few times.”
“But those were seniors, right?”
“That’s true, but Raul is already standing out. So, I think the offer came a bit early. That’s amazing…”
Lewin looked at me with envious eyes.
Indeed, it seemed that they were trying to get their hands on all the promising talents.
Well, I had met her briefly last time, and I would have to go and see what was going on. After seeing Lewin off, I followed the female student to the political science and diplomacy department building where Ferris was.
It would be nice to see that beautiful silver hair again after a long time.
