For the past five years, the Seven Stars Sword-Art Festival has been completely dominated by Bukyoku Academy.
Every year, the top three spots were filled by Bukyoku Academy students, while the other six schools seemed to exist only to fill space, never making it to the finals.
Over time, Bukyoku Academy had come to embody the aura of Japan's number one knight school.
This situation greatly displeased the board at Hagun Academy. In response, they dismissed the previous Director and spent a fortune to recruit Shinguuji Kurono as the new Director.
The former Director had been a typical corrupt politician, often forming cliques, engaging in shady dealings, and issuing unethical orders to curry favor with superiors.
When Shinguuji Kurono took office, she showed no mercy, firing every single teacher aligned with the old Director's faction.
However, this left Hagun Academy critically understaffed. Competent teachers were few and far between, leading to situations like Oreki Yuuri being hastily promoted to a homeroom teacher despite his limited experience. This also explained the drastic reduction in elective courses this year.
Desperate for personnel, Shinguuji Kurono reached out to her rival and friend, Saikyou Nene, inviting her to temporarily teach at Hagun Academy.
Saikyou Nene, who happened to hold a teaching license, agreed to help out.
"Aiya, I never expected you, Little Junior Brother, to enroll at Hagun Academy," The legal loli said, laughing mischievously. Her sharp, fox-like eyes sparkled with playfulness as she sized up Ryoji.
Hidden behind her folding fan, her tongue instinctively licked her slightly dry cherry-pink lips.
"It's been years since we've seen each other, Little Junior Brother. You look like you've developed quite nicely. Come, let Senior Sister take a look!"
Her predatory expression was completely unmasked, boldly declaring her intent. She made no secret of her hunger— specifically, her hunger for him.
Moments like these made Ryoji curse his handsome features.
Why did I have to be so unlucky as to look this good? His looks seemed to magnetically attract certain types of admirers, especially overly aggressive ones like his Senior Sister, who radiated pure carnivorous energy.
Ryoji now fully understood the despair of being a helpless little lamb pursued by a hungry predator.
To be honest, legal lolis weren't even his type.
Her figure lacked any curves, resembling that of an actual elementary school student. Her flat chest was as barren as a dry plain, constantly emphasizing her inability to "play Aces."
Of course, voicing such thoughts in front of her would be courting disaster. He'd instantly experience the love of his First Senior Sister in the most painful way imaginable.
"I think we should create a mood for this kind of thing. For instance, maybe we should stop by the convenience store first?" Ryoji hesitated, attempting to signal his rejection subtly.
"You're right. Buying condoms beforehand is important," The legal loli agreed with an approving nod.
Hiss!
Nope. Legal Loli's level is too high.
As someone who had spent two lifetimes stuck in the talking nonsense phase of relationships, Ryoji was no match for this shameless expert in lewdness!
"What condoms? Is that something a teacher should be saying?"
Bang!
Before she could respond, a figure in a suit appeared behind the legal loli and smashed a fist down on her head. The sound of metal clashing rang out.
"Woah! That scared me! It's Kuu Chan!"
The legal loli leaped behind Ryoji, sticking out her tongue at Shinguuji Kurono.
"You better watch yourself. If I'd reflexively fought back, I might've accidentally killed you," Ryoji joked with a smile, standing in place as if nothing had happened.
He decided to ignore the small hands wandering across his back.
"Kill me? As if! Now hurry up and follow me. I was wondering why you disappeared in the middle of class— you ran off to harass a student?"
Shinguuji Kurono rolled her eyes, looking unimpressed.
"I get that you're at that age where you're starting to feel those urges, but let me warn you: hands off my students."
She walked forward, grabbing Saikyou Nene from behind Ryoji like a misbehaving kitten. The comical size difference made the action look utterly ridiculous.
"What do you mean your student? He's my Junior Brother! Why can't I make a move on my Junior Brother? Are you trying to interfere in my family matters now?" Saikyou Nene protested, flailing her hands and kicking her short legs as she broke free from Shinguuji Kurono's grip.
"Huh? Oh~! So this is the Junior Brother you've been obsessing over for years?" Shinguuji Kurono paused for a moment, then suddenly understood.
"W-Who's been obsessing over him for years!" Saikyou Nene's eyes widened instantly as she glared fiercely at Shinguuji Kurono.
"I'm warning you, don't spout nonsense! I'm always the one people obsess over; I would never obsess over someone else!"
Her cheeks flushed crimson, making her look shy and bashful. Her gaze darted away evasively, and the commanding aura she exuded earlier had vanished completely.
She was embarrassed.
Shinguuji Kurono knew her rival well.
Unlike Kurono, who had married and retired in her early twenties, Saikyou Nene had never been in a relationship. It wasn't for lack of suitors— many had confessed to her, but she rejected them all without exception.
"If I recall correctly, the lock screen on your phone— which hasn't changed in years— has a picture of a very cute kid, right? I thought it looked familiar before, but now that I think about it, isn't that—"
"Ah! W-Woah! Stop talking! If you keep spouting nonsense, I'll kill you!"
Saikyou Nene suddenly screamed, attempting to drown out Shinguuji Kurono's words.
"Quit yelling. Your Junior Brother already left."
Kurono landed another punch on her forehead, her expression exasperated.
"Eh? Really?!"
Saikyou Nene spun around. Sure enough, the beautiful boy behind her had disappeared. He must have taken the opportunity to slip away during their argument.
"Damn it! After waiting so long for him to finally be at an edible age, he escaped!"
Her face was full of unwillingness.
Considering her personality, it hadn't been easy for her to wait patiently all this time for her Little Junior Brother to grow up.
"Hey, Kuu Chan, give me back my Junior Brother!"
"Cut the nonsense and get back to class already!"
…
"Terrifying 30-year-old hag!"
Ryoji had quietly slipped away during their argument. He didn't breathe a sigh of relief until he was safely back in his dorm room, his heart filled with grievances against the 30-year-old loli.
Just look at her; you can tell she's been eyeing my body for ages! I nearly fell into her trap today!
As expected, boys need to protect themselves well out in the world. Otherwise, they might accidentally fall victim to the schemes of an old loli!
But now he was faced with a troubling dilemma.
With the legal loli teaching at Hagun Academy, it was true that, as his master had said, if she were willing to help him, she could drastically accelerate his growth.
Her ability to control gravity was perfect for physical training, providing extraordinary effects that could rapidly enhance Ryoji's physical abilities in a short period.
But that old loli had always been after his body. If he sought her help, she would definitely take advantage of the situation to demand some unspeakable things...
Ew... then again, it's kinda thrilling to think about!
