(POV Rory)
He stared at his reflection, short-cropped blonde hair and brown eyes. A smile plastered on his face but it never reached his eyes. It never did, he had experience throwing this smile on his face but he could not hide the falsehood of it. All the public ever saw beneath his golden lion’s head was a confident smile that promised everything would be fine.
That feeling of confidence was something familiar to him. The feeling that he had the wh...

I was confident I had a handle on what this world was offering. All the signs were rather clear after all. The only sign it was missing was a prophecy of a saintess saving the world.
I may be bitching about this but being inside of an Otome Game was not that bad. At least there was a clear magic system that I could lean on here. I’m not sure if I could learn the magic here but it was worth trying. Which meant I had to pay the absurd price of admission to the academy.

“When you said you were hiding things from the Rebellion I figured you meant more abilities but this is something else. I have been all over the elemental nations and I can confidently say this place does not belong there” Tsuyukoi said as she she looked over the bustling crowds.
Thankfully the people here spoke English so the Japanese coming out of her mouth did not alert anyone. I was not sure but this place put off vibes that Nobility played a big role. So if the words...

Just want to see where interest is at. Pretty sure Chat is the main pull here but I could be wrong. Multiple picks are allowed.

After that brief moment, things calmed down slightly in the room. I still had my head buried in that woman’s chest but the somber mood was no longer so heavy. She seemed happy enough with my offer even if it was not what she wanted.
“Thanks, Ito-kun. Sadly since I can’t take you away with me I am going to have to hold up my end of the bargain.” She spoke out lightly as she held onto me.
I stiffened in her arms but let out a sigh. I could argue that sh...

Tammi had a lot more information about this city than Cole expected. She knew a large amount about what the Empire was doing and she offered some rather valuable targets with a small shrug.
She did not see the need to protect the Empire’s interest when they did not bother to care for her. She was just a worthless pawn in their eyes. That may change because of her gaining powers but Tammi would know the truth of everything. Even if they roll out the red carpet and say the sw...

Turns out Tammi had a lot more information about this city than Cole expected. She knew a large amount about what the Empire was doing and she offered some rather valuable targets with a small shrug.
She did not really see the need to protect the Empire’s interest when they did not bother to talk to her after all. Cole was sure if they knew even a tenth of what she was capable of right now they would do everything they could to get her on their side. Rolling out the red car...

When he opened up the door to the motel room he booked for Tammi he did not even have a moment to collect himself before he had arms wrapped around him. Her head was buried in his chest and her arms were wrapped tightly around him.
He ignored the hot wet feeling soaking into his chest. He held her close and tried not to worry too much about her. She was still wearing the mask Cole gave to her which was great. The last thing he needed was for her real face to get out there. Co...

“This is completely and utterly unacceptable! Who decided it was a good idea to room me with this brutish thug? Are you trying to put my chastity in danger!? Who knows what this degenerate would do sleeping in the same room as me!?” Stella shouted at Kurono trying to get her point across.
She had dragged me back to the director's office when it became clear that yelling at me was not going to solve anything. I’m not sure why she pulled me along but when I tried to slip ...

Cole woke up feeling an odd mixture of emotions. There was no grand confrontation at the end of his epic quest. There was not even a mildly discomforting conversation at the end of the day.
That notion should not have him feeling an odd mixture of emotions but it certainly did.
Worrying for what was to come and how he was going to handle it. Fear over the impending danger he was going to put himself through. Elation over finally having the power to fight back...

“This is absurd,” Kurno spoke out numbly with an absurd expression on her usually lazy face. I mean I could not blame her for her reaction.
It was only understandable seeing the sheet in front of her and what we had just been through.

The two of them lay in the bed just basking in each other's presence. The worries about what was to come were temporarily forgotten as Cole wanted just to enjoy this moment.
Still, even if he wanted to stay like this forever he knew that he could not. The world around them would not stop spinning just because he wanted after all. At least not yet.
So he started to get out of bed and let go of Tammi's hand. Before he could fully leave she grasped onto his hand. Cole looked over a...

Cole looked around quickly making sure no one caught sight of what was happening. He picked this alley because of the lack of cameras and the mugger probably picked it for the same reasons.
Actually considering how the guy looked it might have just been bad luck that Cole encountered him. Something told him that cameras were the last thing on that guy's mind.
Just because there were no cameras here did not mean there would be no one watching. Kaito's skills came in quickly here ...

The world cracked and shattered around him. The dark and foreboding alley shifted into a vast expanse of never-ending crystals. The sea of crystal-like objects reached towards the starry sky as if trying to reach out for the ever-expanding void.
Before him stood an imposing crystalline tower. As he got a better look at it he knew that this thing was not just a gem. Beneath the beautiful aqua crystal was an organism. It was hard to call it a living thing but as the flesh underneath the ...

Tammi was sure about a lot of things in her very short life. She was sure that you either took things or you had those things taken from you. She was sure that if you could not struggle against the tide you might as well lay down and pray. She was sure that pretty words and moral standards were next to useless. She was sure that she was not a good person but honestly, she could care less.
Good people did not live long healthy lives. That little lesson applied triple when you ...

Since I now had qualifications I only had one more thing to do. I traveled toward Hagun Academy. It might be a bit reckless as my identity was still a rather large blank but I was not too concerned about what was going to happen in this world.
Don’t get me wrong the clashes of power that happen in this world are absolutely insane. With weapons Manipulating abstract concepts like wounds, transparency, dragon, and god for bid literally wish fulfillment. This world might masqu...

As humiliating as it was to be held all the time it did have its perks. Ringo did not really have an impressive bust the feel of her breasts on my face was nice but this was a completely different experience.
I tried not to think about it very much but it was literally being stuffed in my face. It was rather distracting so I did not even notice when we reached another room.
The three of us were in a rather spacious room in comparison to the one I received but...

I had taken the slot for the mission once again. It was not exactly fair to the others but I wanted it. I could always make it up to Rias in other ways. She may want an anime-like journey and I could still provide her with that after we this mission is done.
I likely had to spend a lot of time with Ashley after this to make up for being away as well. Even she was going to see me again the very second I left.
Not that it was going to be a hassle to do th...

I had all of my ducks in a row now. Slughorn was all for presenting on my behalf when I showed him my little trick. I knew the guy was using me and while he liked me I was sure he knew I was using him.
The bait was just too tempting for him to back off now. He would just have to be even more careful when dealing with Tommy boy.
Speaking of which I was rather irritated that my moves were being restricted because of him. I changed my whole plan today beca...

After prying Mika off of me I was dragged over for a meeting. I should have expected something like this. Honestly, it was becoming more and more clear I needed to get away from this world for a little while.
I will say that I had made bonds here but I was not going to leave forever. I still had a promise to keep after all.
When we reached the meeting room I met all the regular players that I expected. The various Clan heads but two new faces were at the tabl...

As expected as soon as I started talking about the various recipes that I had prepared Slughorn's eyes lit up. All the things that I had prepared for him were not anything really that special but they did blow anything that the prince family had produced out of the waters.
Meaning while these potions were not anything special to me they certainly had an attractive pull towards Slughorn. Perhaps I was not giving these potions enough credit but when I brewed a literal luc...

Ringo and I have been sitting around doing nothing for the entire day. As you can imagine that has not been a pleasant experience for either of us. Ringo clearly was having issues sitting around doing nothing even if we did chat. I on the other hand was being bothered by her being bothered.
It was annoying but that was the price that had to be paid for our safety. Although I will say I was incredibly annoyed that I had to deal with her asking if we were done constantly. It wa...
