Vol. 1 Chapter 9 – The Girls’ Dormitory

Twilight came early at Toyoashihara Academy.

From the academy grounds, surrounded on all sides by mountains, even after the sun had set, the sky remained dyed in madder red.

“Alright, is this about good enough?”

The student dining hall, lit by retro-style lamps, had other students besides Touma and the others who had come for dinner.

The doors leading out to the terrace were closed, and more than half of the tables that would be packed during lunchtime had been partitioned off.

The kitchen counters, with their wide variety of food, were also closed, especially the light meal sections, but the staple food corner and dessert corner were still open.

Touma was exasperated when he heard that even alcoholic drinks, which were not listed on the menu, would be brought out if ordered.

On a table near a partition, with no other students around them, the hors d’oeuvre-style dinner dishes that they had each split up to buy were spread out until the tabletop was completely filled. hors d’oeuvre-style¹

“Well then, to celebrate our first successful return alive from the dungeon.”

“Cheers!”

Mai, who cheerfully raised her glass with the mood, immediately reached for the cake piled high on a large plate, as if she had been waiting for this moment.

“The sweets here are crazy good. The pâtissier-san’s work is super good.”

“You’re starting with dessert right off the bat?”

“Tsk, tsk, tsk. Sweets and dessert are two different things~. By the way, this one here is for dessert.”

Mai tossed a cutely decorated petit choux into her mouth, then showed them the colorful sweets arranged on another plate of the same size.

“How much did you even get? Just looking at it is enough to give someone heartburn……”

Seiichi was not bad with sweet things either but the amount of fresh cream used alone looked like it could fill an entire rice bowl.

“True, the food at this cafeteria really is good.”

Touma reached his chopsticks toward the roast beef piled up like a mountain on the plate, sloshed it generously through the gravy sauce heavily seasoned with pepper, and stuffed it into his cheeks.

The roast beef, vivid with lean red meat, looked truly delicious, but Seiichi found himself wanting to tell him to eat at least a little vegetables too.

“Touma-san is a carnivorous-type boy, after all.”

Holding a faintly warm bowl in her hands, Shizuka had a blissful look on her face as she held a spoon in her mouth.

Judging from how she had lined up chawanmushi in front of herself, she was the same kind as Touma and the others.

“They really do things at their own pace, seriously.”

Seiichi, resting his elbow on the table, smiled wryly.

When Seiichi picked up a fried potato, Mai grumbled at him.

“But it’s rare extra income, you know. It’s that thing, a reward for myself?”

After having the goblin crystals appraised at the purchasing department, they had earned two hundred thousand sen, which was a large amount of income for new students.

For reference, the crystal of a level one normal goblin that popped up on the first layer was one hundred sen.

The appraisal standard for monster crystals was level × rarity correction × one hundred (sen).

The rarity correction had a large effect on the appraisal price, but rare monsters did not appear often enough to be hunted on purpose.

“Looks like there was a rare individual mixed in. Probably that big one with the club.”

“……The one that got chopped off, right?”

“Well, Touma was the one who beat most of them down, though.”

Touma, who continued silently eating meat, gave a thumbs-up with a poker face.

“Prey should be shared.”

“Touma-kun, you’re so generous! If we can earn this much, then we can eat anything we like every day.”

“Happiness, it is.”

“You’d get sick of eating heaping piles of cake every day. Actually, you’ll get fat.”

“I have a body type that doesn’t get fat, so there’s no problem.”

At Seiichi’s words, Shizuka twitched in reaction, reacted once more, then looked at Mai with resentful eyes.

In reality, as students moved up in year, advanced further in dungeon exploration, and gained more financial leeway in sen, it was common for them to invest in improving their standard of living, such as enjoying good food.

Menus that cost over ten thousand sen per plate were aimed exactly at those kinds of high-level students.

Those expensive sen-priced goods were set up for students who had sen to spare, and they did not correspond proportionally to real-money prices.

They were also a status-like hierarchy element that differentiated the dungeon group from the enjoy group.

“Be careful. If you stand out too flashily, people might start watching you for weird reasons.”

Resentment and envy, in other words jealousy, could be called a habit rooted in human instinct.

Especially in Japan, the bad habit of hammering down any nail that sticks out was deeply ingrained.

“I’ll leave that kind of thing to Seiichi. Just put the amount I’m allowed to use on my card, okay?”

“……You don’t think I might skim some off?”

Mai, holding a spoon loaded with cream in her mouth, grinned with a nihihi.

“That’s fine?”

“Damn it, she’s taking advantage of me.”

Shizuka gazed enviously at Seiichi and Mai as they playfully bantered, with Seiichi flicking her forehead.

The sen gained from this dungeon dive had been split equally among the four of them.

“For a while, we’ll have to prioritize getting our equipment in order too. We don’t have room to waste money.”

“Then we’ve gotta keep attacking the dungeon like crazy!”

“Raising our levels and gaining real ability comes first. If we do that, we can shut the people around us up, but……”

Seiichi casually looked around and confirmed that no one was paying attention to them.

“What I’m about to say, you absolutely must not tell anyone.”

“Um, is this a setup? ……No, you’re serious, aren’t you?”

Noticing Seiichi’s serious expression, Mai straightened her posture.

“Yeah.”

“Understood.”

After confirming that Touma and Mai had nodded as well, Seiichi lowered his voice.

“Absolutely don’t die. At the very least, we’ll move in a way that avoids a total party wipe. Do you understand what that means?”

“Um, those crystal-like things we got from Touma-kun. Could it be that those dropped from us?”

The three soul crystals that Touma had secured during the first dungeon dive.

“Don’t go dungeon diving with any party besides ours. Those guys don’t have them anymore.”

At Seiichi’s words, spoken with his expression wiped clean, Mai’s body shivered with a chill.

It was the kind of cold sensation that made her feel as if she had heard something she should not have heard.

“I still think it’s better not to tell them things they can’t do anything about even if they know. Is that fine with you, Touma?”

“Yeah.”

“You understand by now that this academy isn’t normal, right? Right now, it’s not like you can’t still run away from the academy……”

“No way, I don’t want that!”

Mai’s face changed color as she planted her hands on the table and half rose from her seat.

If she had any other choice, she would not have come here in the first place.

Shizuka nodded as if agreeing with Mai.

“Then we’re all in the same boat. First, let’s get stronger. Everything comes after that.”

＊　＊　＊

“First of all, even inside the dorm, be careful when you’re talking in secret. There are normal things like listening devices around.”

Mai and Shizuka were surprised by Seiichi’s warning, but at this point, it was nothing new.

It would probably be better to keep the fact that Seiichi was a Yo○tuber a secret from Mai. 

After Touma and the others finished their celebration at the student dining hall, they temporarily split up and returned to their own rooms. Then, for some reason, they were facing one another again.

Or rather, Touma was inside the girls’ dorm.

To be precise, he was intruding on Shizuka and Mai’s room.

The heart-pounding feeling of stepping into a forbidden garden was irresistible.

Well, the building itself was not all that different from Black Cormorant Dorm and White Crane Dorm.

The interior felt slightly more girlish and a distinct feminine scent drifted through the air.

On the way to the room, Touma had passed by several girls living in the dorm. The ones who looked like upperclassmen gave him looks that seemed to say,『you sure are a lustful one, while the ones who looked like new students looked at him with fear in their eyes』.

They should not have been his classmates, so just how far had the reputational damage spread?

“Ahh, how do I put this…… I’ll apologize first. It was my fault.”

Seiichi, sitting on Mai’s bed, lowered his head.

He was directly facing Touma, who was sitting on Shizuka’s bed.

Maybe the shape of the rooms assigned to new students was the same for both boys and girls, because the desks installed side by side near the window were the same too.

Over there, Shizuka and Mai were sitting on chairs, silently watching Touma and Seiichi.

Mai in particular was looking at them with extremely worried eyes but Touma still could not quite grasp the situation.

“What are you talking about?”

“I’m grateful that you’re willing to let it slide, but I don’t want any resentment left between us.……I knew Shizuka was being gang-raped over there. I knew and I still egged it on. Shizuka, I’m sorry too.”

“Um, no…… That is……”

With both hands placed on her closed knees, Shizuka looked at Touma as if troubled.

Now that he thought about it, it did feel like various intruders had come around for a while from the very first day.

After making Seiichi’s bed reek of male musk, they had ended up being late over and over too.

“Touma-kun, I’m sorry. I noticed too but I didn’t say anything.”

“Mai, this has nothing to do with you.”

“It does have something to do with me. If I’m the only one pretending not to know, then I won’t be able to become Shizuka’s friend.”

Mai shook her head with teary eyes and held Shizuka’s hand.

“Mai-san……”

“I’m sorry I made you the sacrifice. I…… I’m sorry.”

Shizuka, who was holding Mai’s shoulders and calming her down, looked to Touma for help with an expression that seemed to ask, What should I do?

“If that will make the two of you feel better, then I don’t mind being toyed with however Touma-kun likes, or e-even going through the same thing.”

“Wait, Mai. Then I’ll……”

What exactly was Seiichi planning to do?

Was he going to hold some kind of wasshoi festival with a dozen upperclassmen from the boys’ dorm and livestream it? wasshoi²

There was no way that would earn anything.

Though some corners of the internet would probably give it a frenzied live commentary.

“Calm down.”

Since Touma’s bad reputation as a DV bastard looked like it was about to gain the added nickname of bisexual, he decided to clear up the misunderstanding.

“Shizuka was……mostly not subjected to sexual assault.”

Whether that included things from Touma, or shame-play that felt like being visually violated, was hard to say.

Since Touma was apparently bad at explaining things, he left it to Shizuka herself.

“……So basically, Touma turned the tables on all of them?”

“Mostly.”

After all, executing people just for looking at Shizuka would be a little too much like a genocider.

“Then you were having lovey-dovey sex with Touma-kun the whole time?”

“……Um, y-yes.”

“Was the reason you looked so sleepy because Touma-kun wouldn’t let you sleep?”

Mai, who had gone from crying to laughing in no time at all, teased Shizuka with a smug grin.

Shizuka, blushing and looking down, answered honestly but it was quite the shame-play.

Things like soft restraints using a towel, and the ongoing anal development, had ended up being leaked completely to the You○uber.

“……I thought Seiichi was perverted too, but Touma-kun is amazing. I’m impressed. Please forget the part where I said you could do whatever you liked with me.”

Touma wished she would stop looking at him with such a serious face and eyes full of respect.

Also, he had no intention of laying a hand on his best friend’s woman from the start.

“No, even so, the fact that I set this up with malicious intent doesn’t change.”

“Uu……Th-then, if Seiichi watches over me. Also, I want to give my first time in the back to Seiichi, so that part is off-limits.”

“Mai, then I’ll……”

Even if Seiichi offered up his first anal, Touma would honestly have no idea how to handle it.

Shizuka-san, whose breathing had subtly grown rough, probably had the hidden potential to be rotten after all.

Since the situation was becoming impossible to control, Touma pulled Shizuka, who had started preparing various things, back down and made her sit.

“I’ll accept the apology for everything all together. Shizuka, is that all right with you?”

“……Yes.”

She looked a little dissatisfied but had she wanted to see some kind of push-push play?

＊　＊　＊

Touma had vaguely realized that things would probably turn out this way and in the end, they ended up staying overnight in Shizuka and Mai’s room.

“Mm…… up we go.”

Mai sat down on her own bed, then slipped off her sweatshirt.

After taking off her baggy top, Mai’s upper body was clad only in a cute yellow brassiere.

Rather than making him feel erotic, it gave off a healthy sort of sex appeal and looked adorable.

“Whoa, you really don’t hesitate, huh?”

“Well, we already did lewd stuff in the dungeon while showing each other and if we’re going to act together from now on, it’s necessary. There’s no way Seiichi can hold back.”

“You get it, don’t you?”

Seiichi, who had been sitting cross-legged, caught Mai’s body in his arms and reached a hand toward her lower half.

It was that.

The kind of situation Touma had seen in X videos picked up with search terms like『orgy』or『dorm』.

As for Touma, he was on Shizuka’s bed, sitting formally on his knees with their knees facing each other like an arranged meeting.

He was not confused about the act itself but it had a rather stylish movie-scene feel to it.

The way Shizuka slowly, drew closer from her side, as if to trap his knees between her thighs, put a nice pressure on him.

Was Shizuka’s loungewear today what they called a one-piece camisole?

It might have been a simple design, perhaps even plain in a certain sense but it matched Shizuka’s modest, Yamato nadeshiko-like atmosphere. Nadeshiko³

The thighs that were slowly being revealed little by little with that movement were very brilliant.

Because Touma had once been into foreign stuff for a while, his thoughts had turned English.

The recent Shizuka-san was a little scary, because if he chickened out here and ran away, she seemed like she might seriously cry and do something like cut her wrist.

To begin with, Touma was not enough of a moralist to run away from a meal set right in front of him.

Without overthinking it, he should treat it as though it were just the two of them and let’s try.

“Ah……”

Touma grabbed her waist and pulled her toward him as if sliding her butt along the sheets, then laid her down within reach.

The hem of her camisole slid up dramatically, exposing her lower half, which, unlike Mai’s, was plump and suited for easy childbirth.

Rather than the synchronization of direct touch, Shizuka seemed relieved by the fact that Touma himself had actively sought the act.

A man who could pretend not to notice a girl cutely asking for him like this and simply sleep beside her would either be severely impotent or be a Zen monk on the verge of enlightenment.

During sex, they would inevitably synchronize heavily no matter what he did, so Touma decided to take the stance of attacking from his side.

He stroked her cheek with his right palm, transmitting his own level of sexual arousal as though letting it blend into her.

Just that alone made Shizuka writhe as if she could not endure it, twisting her thighs together as her breathing grew ragged.

Touma placed his left hand on her breast, which was being pushed up by her underwear to create cleavage, and even through the cup, he scratched at the firm, hardened tips he could feel.

Kari, kari, each time he scratched, Shizuka’s body arched slightly.

It seemed Shizuka would not mind even if he grabbed her bare breasts with both hands from the start and went straight for『let’s insert』but her hidden-status-like masochism value seemed like it might grow into a strange territory, so Touma restrained himself.

Shizuka took the thumb of his right hand, the one stroking her cheek, into her mouth and sucked on it with little『nn, nn…』sounds.

When Touma reached a hand between her legs, the area near the base was already faintly hot.

He placed the back of his finger on the hollow of her pubic mound and, through her panties, slid it smoothly from top to bottom.

In time with her waist rising with little ku, ku motions, her legs gradually opened.

Clothing was psychological armor, a kind of suit of armor.

In sex, the extraordinary act of undressing and becoming naked served as a signal for mating.

By contrast, deepening the act while still clothed was like softening one thin layer of aversion toward sexual intercourse.

For Shizuka, who had not had very good sexual experiences, it was an important process.

It was absolutely not Touma’s sexual preference.

It was not.

Touma stroked Shizuka as she licked the finger tracing her lips with pero pero motions, then peeled her panties down from her butt as if removing an eggshell.

On top of the soft flesh of her butt sinking into the sheets, the cleft of her flesh filled the air with a female scent.

He parted the moist, soft folds and slipped his fingertip into the fleshy hole opened at the bottom of the valley.

When he looked down at Shizuka because of the sticky sensation his fingertip caught, her face, turned away as if she understood her own condition, was very red.

No matter how much Shizuka did not want to admit it, there was no doubt that she had grown into a lewd body.

Touma bent and rotated two fingers, spreading the lubrication inside the hole and loosening her up.

He licked the fingertips he had pulled out and tested whether the entrance had widened enough.

Feeling air slip inside, Shizuka placed a hand over her mouth and looked up at him with moist eyes.

It was probably time.

Touma and Seiichi were still wearing their uniforms so they could go straight to school.

Touma had her fold them so they would not wrinkle, then transformed first into his completely bare form.

“……Waha, that definitely is……”

“……For now, Shizuka’s exclusive, then.”

Touma could hear some noise but being the sensitive soul he was, he ignored it.

If they started judging him like at an exhibition, there was a high chance he would brokenly shut down.

As for Shizuka-san, she seemed to be waiting while staring fixedly at his male organ without so much as a sideways glance.

Touma wanted to learn from that lionheart of hers.

＊　＊　＊

“Ah, ah, nn…”

“Ah… ah… i-it’s amazing…”

The gishigishi sound of the bed echoed through the room.

The two different rhythms naturally fell into step and even when one side stopped, it slowly resumed and continued the duet.

The air in the room, which had felt chilly, was now boiling with a stuffy heat.

“Se…iichi, you’re amazing… even though we did it so much in the dungeon…”

Seiichi, leaning his back against the bedboard with his hands clasped above his head, raised the corners of his mouth in a grin.

Mai, completely naked, was straddling Seiichi’s waist on the bed with her back turned to him, looking back with an expression that had melted into a daze.

Inside the butt that she kept shaking on her own while leaning forward, the penis that had been inserted exclusively into her ever since they entered the academy was swelling angrily, as if to say this still was not enough.

It was not that he had become delayed because of insufficient stimulation. Rather, he had released semen several times at just the right timing.

Each time it was poured into her, Mai also felt the heat seep thickly into the depths of her hips, becoming an ache that guided her deeper and deeper.

“Ah.”

Pechin, her butt was slapped with an open hand and Mai’s butt dropped as her thighs trembled in jerks.

The inside of her butt , which had taken him all the way to the base, squeezed down tightly.

“I’ve ended up with some pretty nice stamina. Level-ups really are something, seriously. I can feel good in Mai’s ass as much as I want.”

“Nn… geez, being made to go along with this… my head’s going… stupid…”

“Sorry about that. You’re already mine.”

“Unn!”

Pechin, her butt rang out again and Mai arched her back happily as she tightened her butt around him.

The side light shining over the bed made the small breasts she held against him tremble softly, giving the scene a sensual glow.

“Ah, ah, nn……”

Shizuka moved her hips up and down in a steady rhythm, clinging to Touma from the front.

She fit snugly into Touma’s lap as he sat cross-legged, her arms wrapped under his shoulders as she hugged him tightly.

Her skin, damp with sweat, was already bare.

Since Shizuka especially sought skin-to-skin contact during the act, Touma accepted her service mode while savoring the softness of her breasts as they were pressed against him and flattened.

“Shizuka seems like quite the spoiled little one, huh?”

“Yeah.”

At the teasing words, Shizuka tightened her arms with a firm gyuu, as if refusing to let go.

“That’s fine.”

“Kuha, so you like spoiling her, huh? Sounds good to me. That’s the devoted type, right?”

Touma soothed Shizuka as she hugged him tightly, as if trying to burrow into his chest.

Her butt, continuing to move with little kyu, kyu motions as though trying to offer even a little pleasure in exchange for his warmth, was endearing.

Perhaps she still felt resistance to showing such a seductive state in front of Seiichi and Mai because she did not want to separate from Touma’s body.

Even so, among their companions, in order to clearly show that she belonged exclusively to Touma, she offered her body of her own accord and devoted herself fully to serving him.

Touma’s penis stirred stickily between the flesh, digging into a spot that felt hopelessly good and Shizuka let out her usual moans.

The up-and-down movement of her butt gradually grew slower, while instead, strength gathered in the thighs clamped around Touma’s torso.

Before long, Shizuka, having reached the very brink while squeezing the penis she had taken all the way to the base, trembled in Touma’s arms.

Touma stroked Shizuka in her most adorable state, slowly adoring her as he gave the final push and slid deeply in.

Shizuka, struggling as if she were drowning, was gently held in his embrace.

After reaching deep, Shizuka rested her cheek on Touma’s shoulder and entwined her arms and legs around him tightly so they would not separate.

After that, Touma would surely use her body until he was satisfied.

It was a kind of beloved feeling of being toyed with, different from simply enduring.

A bliss that came from being able to entrust everything about herself to him.

“……Shizuka looks really happy.”

When Shizuka, with a melted expression, turned around, Mai, held in Seiichi’s arms on top of him, was smiling happily.

Shizuka nodded with a small kokun and murmured in her heart,『You too』.

＊　＊　＊

“Feels like we’re getting a ton of attention.”

Rude, staring gazes were directed at Touma and the others’ table.

Considering two guys had slipped into the sacred territory known as the girls’ dorm, it was only natural.

“I’m used to it.”

Seiichi, making a manly but hopeless kept-man kind of remark, bit into his sandwich.

The breakfast they were having in White Crane Dorm dining hall was a buffet-style sandwich meal.

Apparently, breakfast often leaned toward bread.

At Black Cormorant Dorm, Japanese-style meals based around rice and miso soup were the main thing, so this felt fresh.

Breakfast was the source of the day’s energy, so Touma was also eating heartily.

They were not the type of sandwiches where ham and lettuce were placed between slices of white bread. Rather, they seemed to be submarine-style sandwiches, with salmon, tuna, thick-cut tomatoes, and colorful ingredients tucked into slightly firm koppe-pan.

The one with what looked like prosciutto inside was good, so Touma went to get seconds.

The lunch-lady-like woman in charge of serving gave a wry smile as she made him more.

“This really is awkward.”

“You’re not holding back at all, are you? Actually, it looks good, so give me one too.”

Touma had brought back enough for about three people, so giving him one was fine.

Perhaps because of the effects of leveling up or something, he felt like he was not getting enough calories.

It seemed like he might end up finishing every last sandwich piled on the tray without leaving any behind.

The girls around them were looking at him with impressed eyes.

The reason those gazes did not seem to have the same thorns as last night was probably because Shizuka and Mai, who were sitting beside them respectively, were, how to put it, all soft and fluffy.

They were like a full puppy and kitten or perhaps like they were still half-asleep.

For some reason, some of the girls were even looking at them with envy.
