Chapter 10: The Substitute

Later, after the exposure incident an Olivia being invited to dinner this Saturday. It was getting late and I needed to get ready for class, so I went back upstairs. Getting my uniform and gathering my things, I left home.

But all at the same time, as I was going to school, something popped up in my head about the system.

Isn't it kind of like those things from a webnovel?

"Hey, so I have an inventory?" I asked the system itself.

[ Inventory: Unknown: Error: Error ]

"So. . .No inventory huh?"

[ Idiot Demon, You Might Not Have An Inventory But You Can Still Buy Spatial Storages, Maybe Somethin Useful ]

"But spatial pouches cost like 10 gold? and that's really like 10,000 copper units, does it look like I have that?!"

[ Find A Way To Make The Money Then, Hunt, Like your Father Told You To In The Letter, How Bout You Accept Some Quests You Retarded Fucking Demon, Incubus ]

"Yeah, yeah, I get it, but does it look like I have the time to do dat? on a serious note, I really don't have the time"

"Are there any other ways? Because hunting isn't?"

[ This Is Why I Don't Call You My Master. . .Listen Here U Dumb Demon, Lo– I mean Rin, See Even I'm being Some What Respectable To You, You Should Do The Same To Me, And Now You Should Listen To Me When I Tell You To Go Find A Dungeon Rift And Gain Some Experience Points To Utilize More Of The Systems Functions And Also Gain More AP Which Is Attribute Points, They'll Become Something Very Useful For You To Have ]

". . . .Uh" I was at a loss for words, is it helping me?

[ For Fuck Sakes, You're An Incubus And You're literally The Brother To The Succubi. They're All Your Sisters So Just Take Some Tips From Them And Use Your Skills To Your Advantage; Seduce Someone To Get Your Way! ]

"Why are you telling me this?"

[ Shut The Fuck Up, Take That Damn Hormon Blocking Ring An Use Your Natural Pheromones To Hook Anyone Onto You, It'll Work Unless Their Resistant Or Immune! ]

"What? You want me to hypnotize someone?!"

[ You're Exhausting To Talk To, I'm Going To Sleep ]

"Um. . . Okay then, good night?"

"Wait, but before you do, what was the point of that life or death mission, you haven't explained anything to me!"

[ Uh, Your So Annoying! The First Mission Was To See If You Truly Were Deserving Of Being An Incubus And Also The Master Of The System, So We, Gave You A Rank A Mission, It's Was A Requirement To Complete, And With Your Flawless Timing. Missions Will Now Start From E And Then They'll Get Stronger The More You Progress, So When You Get To Level 5 You'll Be Getting BP, More To Your Knowledge, Blossom Points, Which Are Used In The System As Currency For Systems Shop Functions ]

"Geeze, why is everything so complicated"

[ They're not, your just incredibly slow as you are ]

"What does that mean?"

[ I Mean Your Good As You Are, At Least You're Not A Monster. Like The Demons Before You. You're Decent ]

Hearing the Systems voice sounding like that, almost as if they had a long past dealing with other demons who were incredibly evil, I sympathized with it just now.

"Thanks, I'll try to live up to your expectations then"

[ Ha! You're Funny: I Don't Have Any For You Yet~ ]

"Then I hope when they come, their all good"

. . . . .

After waking for a while, I ran into Anita and Andrea and when seeing them, they look so much alike, they're not twins but they look like exact copies of each other.

And paying no mind to them as they came across my path and stopped when seeing me, staring at me, going over to them as they were in my way, I smiled at them.

"Morning ladies, on your way to school as well?"

I asked, an Anita who looked flustered nodded her head, I forgot she liked me? But do I need to persue her any? No I don't think I need to anymore, that's good.

I don't like being manipulative or manipulated, I don't want to tread her differently, honestly I'd just like for us to be friends, after all, I have Olivia now, so it's great~

Joining me for a stroll to school, after a minute, Anita had shocked me, "I heard that we're going on a training expedition this Monday, to some training camps?"

Shocked, I said, "Training camps?"

"Yeah, I heard it from a 3rd year. Apparently, at the start of each year, student are required to spend about a little more than a month at a training camp to adjust them to their classes, especally the ones having to deal with magic related subjects, like ours for example"

"What do you mean like ours?"

"We're going to be send to a Physical Stream And Mana Manipulation training camp, camp S&MM" she told me.

"S&MM?"

"Its a strength and mana manipulation course, oh and as for the last of the week, we're going to have to create something with the skills learned, quality doesn't matter only if it works it does, that's what we'll be graded on?"

"Wow, you really know a lot? Thanks for letting me know ahead of time, it's good to be prepared," I said with joy while putting my hands over my head looking forward.

But then looking over, "Hey Andrea? You're going to our school as well?" I said but kooking at her she was in a standard schooling uniform, it made me wonder?

"Kinda? I'm a substitute teacher, filling in for Me.Izawa the academy teacher who joined a joint company not too long ago, I'll be taking his place for a while too"

But then thinking about what she said, that sounds like it's really useful, and also kind of interesting too, I like it.

"Miss Andrea," I switched up my tone with her, "You said you were filling in for Mr.Izaea right, does that mean your going to be an alchemy teacher here now?"

"That's correct, why, are you his student?"

"No, but I've been curious in potion craft for a while, and I've been making prototype potions for a while too. But every time I make something it's always a failure?"

"Ah. . .You want me to teach you some I presume?"

It was mine she was reading my mind right now. . .

"If you wouldn't mind" I was determined about it.

"Okay, I'll teach you some but you mind sharing what you've created so far already, I do wanna know now?"

And hearing her, I didn't hesitate to tell her it.

"I wanna make a Mana potion using moon pearls and a few other things," but as I said that they both turns their heads looking at my like I was insane? What I sat?

"I should report you, you do know having moon pearls have been forbidden by the city lord right? Or how bout you give me a valid explanation and I'll forget bout this"

I think I might need to mix the truth. . .Shoot.

"Ugh. . .So basically long story short, my mana is ass, I can't control, I have this ring to help suppress it for the most part but it drains my mana and I need to refill it from time to time, but I can't recover fast enough"

I said using all my breathe, but taking a big breathe I kept on talking, and with another I said in one go.

"But I ran out the other day and now want to recreate it but I don't know how other than using this one method"

I said running out of breathe and grabbing my chest.

And hearing me, she raised a brow while looking at me.

"I guess. . .I can let it slide, also I'll help you too, but I do have a question? And it's how do you get your Mana to come back without this. Also don't you know the moon pearls have a strong aphrodisiac affect to it, that is why it's illegal to own them?" she said in question to me.

And to be honest I don't know how to recover Mana. . .

All I know is I feed on sexual energies, and that's it?

Wait, do I even recover my magic? Do I actually?

But just thinking of something on the spot, I said back to her with the most serious face, "I recover using sleep, it helps and then depending on if I'm with someone, I'll usually leach off their Mana through, intimate acts"

Hold my hand and I might show you. . . Hehehe.

Wait why the hell am I horny? Geeze me!

"Okay. . .I guess I can shaparon ya on your camp trip too because this looks like an issue and we may need your free time to work on it, but really, sleep is good for it"

But the crossing her arms, she said too.

"Also I can share some on my Mana with you so you don't pass out, your not going to get much sleep there so I'm just going to hope we come up with something?"

But as she finished those words I grabbed her hand as sparkles literally radiated off of me, "Thank ya so much! You don't know how much of a life saver you are! You won't regret taking me on this, I promise you that!"

Me and alchemy never got along so this is a good new set of pace, now I have a alchemy teacher with me~. . .

. . . . .

On the way there she ended up quizzin me an we ended taking about theory's. Equivalent exchange, and I'm also pretty sure we annoyed Anita along with our chattering.

But during our talk I felt kind of embarrassed though, an I'm saying this because I knew they kept looking at the mark on my neck and I'm glad they didn't bring it up.

And getting inside school there was still plenty of time left before class, so turning to them, "Hey, I'll see y'all later, I'mma find something to do in the meanwhile"

I said and we all split off into different directions.

But while I was looking to waste time, I looked over to a tree and I guess I'll rest under it, and going to the middle of the campus, and under a cherry tree, with the best shade, I walked over to it and sat under it's shade.

And as I sat there for a few minutes, my eyes started getting heavy and they started to shut. . .I feel asleep.

. . . . .37 minutes passed . . .

After a while of dozing off, "Wakie Wakie~" this familiar voice said sounding childish, but at the same time it is mature and suddle? Kind of like a caretaker in a way?

But ignoring them, I felt as someone sat on my lap, and not doing anything as I'm way too tired for this, I didn't do anything, till seconds later where they shook me.

Shaking me violently, and waking me all the way up!

And waking up, I pleaded, "I didn't do it!" I said not to be in any way incriminated with anything! But then looking in front of me, no one's there, looking around, no one?

But then as it looked like I was being played by a ghost I felt a touch on the back of my neck, and if send shivers down my spine, making me tense up and jolt straight.

squeaking, I squealed before I saw who was not sitting on my lap, "Olivia? What are you doin? I asked confused as she was continuously messing with me; scaring me.

•...•

But not getting a direct answer, she said with a big old smile on her face, "Morning, I hope you know class's start soon?" she said right before leading into me.

And whispering close into my ear, "Or do you want to be punished by me~" she said flirtin heavily, an sadistically.

And fighting back against her this time, I said, "What if I want to be punished?. . . " I Challenged her, but instead she just flicked my forehead, and the she got off me?

"If that's the case then I'll be punishing you in the name of the student council, but if you really want that, Rin, then by all means, I don't mind doing them both?"

She said scaring me all the way, what does she mean?

So then with a straight face and a ghostly dead look, I stood up and bowed mildly towards her, "I'll be heading to class, have a good day Olivia. . ." I said as there was no way in hell I was going to let that ever even happen.

And it's mainly because she mentioned those monsters.

Ugh. . .The student council, the elite savages of school.

They're all a dangerous bunch, and she's the head of the disciplinary community, which is all of the punishments.

So walking away I said bye to her again and she giggled as she told me to hurry up and have a good day today.

Geeze, she's lucky I love her. Because if I didn't I would have been avoiding her all together, she is menacing....

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Before, no one really knew what the mark on my neck meant, but as soon as they saw that little scene in the courtyard with me and Olivia, rumours quickly spread.

The Queen Of Sadistic has found her newest target, ah poor freshmen is marked by the head of the disciplinary committee that has fallen to her accursed ill-gotten trap.

Yet little did they know I wasn't stuck with her, it was more like she was stuck with someone like me. . .

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Finally getting to class and sitting down, *Boom!* Marc came over slamming his hand on the desk wit Lily next to him, "Bro! We know your with Olivia!" he said but I'd never tired hidin it from anyone other than my sisters?

"Don't lie! The mark on your neck says everythin! We just want to know why and if she's hurting you in any way or form! *whispering* I'll tear out that crazy bitches throat"

And hearing him and ALL of what he just said to me. . .

"What?!" I was serverly confused on how this transpired.

"You know she's a torturer right? I don't care if she's one of your closest friends, I'll put her in her place for you!!!"

Marc said completely serious. . .But why is he???

And hearing his reasons, I couldn't hold back laughing, n' when hearing Matc, Lily basically did the same thin too.

But laughing even more as I'm going to answer him.

"Hahaha! Yeah, I'm with Olivia? What about it" I asked.

But then Lily slammed her hand down, "Is it by choice!"

And nodding my head I answered her, and Marc yelled.

"Dude has she done anything to you yet? Is she forcing you to do stuff? By that mark on your neck we're already assuming she did something major to you! So all I really need to know as of now. In this motherfucking moment, was there consert! Did you consent to that vile bitch!"

Marc Said interrogating me.

But hearing him I laughed harder.

Saying, "Bruh, I'm fine. Can't you tell from seein me now. Also don't jump to conclusions so fast guys, after all we have known her for a long time and she's. . .Harmless" I said with a smile making them think I'm crazy right now.

And they didn't believe she's harmless, they've seen her fight an they've seen her serverly beat up 7 guards while after beating a whole competitor sports team. . .Alone.

And looking away, I whispered to myself, "Plus, I couldn't exactly control myself either? What if it happens again when I'm having my real Estrus Cycle, that'll be bad"

I said subconsciously.

"What you say?!" Marc was confused.

And Lily jumped up again.

"You do know she's a torturer right? Imagine all the crule things she had planned for you. . . you're crazy not to be scared of what she'll do to you. . .You know you are?!"

But hearing her I started giggling, "You know I was the one who got her into these ideals right? When we were younger an she was curious, I sort of sparked the flame and kept fueling it. . .Plus, she liked girls more, boys are too boring, they just cry and weep she's told me" I said.

And Lily took a step back in sheer shock along with Marc, and having to rethink all of what was in her head, I smiled at her as she realized I was the reason behind it.

I'm sorry, I couldn't help it back then, I was so bored. . .

Marc and Anita who joined in the last moment were all in shock, and Lily had to go and sit back down after hearing all of this, but when she did, she turned.

And looking at me, she gave me a thumbs up, "Okay, I'll approve of this then. . .Just please remember she is ah beastkin, and a tiger for fucks sakes, so don't you dare get overpowered or used by that bad bitch. . ." she said right before pulling out her notebook for class.

And whispering something over to Anita, I chuckled, "Ha it's not me she should be worried about not the other way around" I said with a lustful flicker in my mind.

But then I looked over to the shocked an mumblin Marc, "You...You're..Why...What...How...You...Encouraged...Her..Sic...Sick...Habits...-" I think he might be broke, oh yea, she punished him once back when he hit on her?

Haha, that was his greatest mistake and it was also her funniest experience, tieing him up from a leaning tree.

Standing up, I went over to help him as he dramatically fell to his knees, today's going to really be a long day. . .

And all while I was doing this, I felt eyes on me and it's from the same girl, why is Anita always staring at me? I can't tell if it's because she likes me or is annoyed by me today? Unless she sees something on my back actually.

"Hey, Anita do I have anything on my back"

Startling her, "Huh? Uh no?!"

"Ah. . ."

But then in the next moment the door slammed open.
