Chapter 67: Report, I Want to Be… Ahem
"Henie?"
Viktor stood by the bed, casually tossing the blanket in his hand to the floor, staring at Henie for a good while.
Only then did Henie stretch lazily, rubbing her eyes and mumbling groggily.
She opened her slightly blurry eyes and saw Viktor standing by the bed, but showed no signs of alarm.
Instead, she grinned at Viktor with a silly smile, squinting her eyes, and crawled onto Viktor, hanging on him like a koala, continuing to sleep.
Viktor: "..."
Viktor felt his sanity was about to collapse.
Vega, perched on its stand, watched the two of them, chirping with laughter.
Sensing Viktor's cold gaze, Vega stopped laughing, flapped its wings, and flew out.
Before leaving, it didn't forget to add:
"Well then, I won't disturb your lovely time."
After leaving, it even remembered to close the door.
"..."
Although he didn't know what unhealthy thoughts this damned crow was having.
The current situation made Viktor somewhat afraid to move.
Henie was wearing only a thin nightgown, revealing large patches of pristine skin, a sudden burst of allure, incredibly tempting.
He tried to remove Henie from his body but didn't know where to start.
The problem was significant; the seductive aura unique to succubi reached Viktor's nose, teasing him.
No matter how you look at it, Viktor was only human. Under the provocation of this seductive aura, he breathed heavily, almost unable to calm down.
He leaned down, placing Henie, who was hanging on him, onto the bed.
If someone were to see this posture, it would appear as if Viktor was pressing down on Henie.
As if the next second, some kind of unmentionable act would occur.
But after doing all this, Viktor just softly called out the girl's name.
"Henie."
As if by some magic, hearing someone call her name, Henie blinked groggily.
This time, she truly woke up.
She opened her eyes and immediately saw Viktor in front of her.
"Eh!? Professor?"
Her face turned as red as a ripe apple, and she couldn't help but cry out:
"What's going on here!"
Despite her words, she made no move to let go of Viktor. Perhaps because Viktor's appearance was too sudden, she forgot that she was clinging to Viktor like an octopus.
Viktor's face was terrifyingly gloomy as he calmly said to Henie:
"This is my room."
"Ah!"
...
Henie zipped under the covers in a flash, hiding in the corner of the bed, shivering, with only her head peeking out.
Whether out of fear or confusion, she kept apologizing to Viktor.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"
"I don't know why I fell asleep in your room, I originally came to report something to you..."
She stole a glance at Viktor sitting in the chair, her cheeks flushed.
She had thought she was dreaming about Professor Viktor, but it turns out that wasn't a dream just now...
Although her heart was filled with a sense of happiness, Henie was still a bit afraid that Professor Viktor might be angry because of this.
It seemed that Professor Viktor's expression wasn't very good.
"So, you planned to come find me dressed like this?"
At this, Henie was so frightened that she quickly tucked her head under the covers too, not daring to look at Viktor, repeatedly saying "I'm sorry" from under there.
"When I wake up too early, I get a bit confused, so... I forgot to put on my outer clothes..."
Henie's voice grew smaller and smaller, finally becoming as faint as a mosquito buzzing in the air, barely audible.
Listening to her explanation, Viktor's face remained dark.
Succubi were truly dangerous creatures.
He had almost lost control earlier.
Succubi possess a unique charm and sweet aura, which they use to attract men.
After gaining magical power, her succubus traits were constantly revealing themselves.
Perhaps Henie herself didn't know she had such abilities, but it was like a succubus's instinct.
Even unconscious behaviors, the seduction unique to succubi would still affect Viktor.
Paired with her thin nightgown, it was enough to make one feel lightheaded.
Viktor had to use [Self-Suggestion] three times in a row before he could calm down a bit.
In the game, he had seen succubi before, and even personally killed several.
But in the game, when succubi cast charm on players, it would only give players a 50% damage reduction debuff. After all, players in the game couldn't even take off their underwear, so naturally, there wouldn't be any other effects that would make one's blood boil.
But now, Viktor was a human with feelings.
He had to lecture Henie more, at least to prevent her from continuing like this.
Otherwise, he might really do something against the girl's will.
Helplessly, Viktor's words could only contain more intimidation.
"Remember, no one can endure you forever, Henie."
"If there's a next time, I'm not sure if I can refrain from doing something inappropriate."
"..."
Hearing these words, Henie suddenly poked her head out, looking at Viktor carefully.
"...Really?"
Her tone seemed to carry a hint of anticipation.
Viktor: "?"
Wait, this isn't right, is it?
"If it's Professor... I, I can..."
"..."
Henie looked at Viktor somewhat shyly, the blanket seemingly unconsciously slipping down to reveal her pristine shoulders, her eyes alluring.
Viktor closed his eyes.
This is impossible to suppress.
A pure and beautiful girl, with eyes full of you, is truly hard to refuse.
But...
He reopened his eyes, stood up, his gaze returning to complete clarity.
"Henie."
"Um... yes?"
She looked up at Viktor like a panicked little deer, seemingly a bit flustered, yet with a hint of expectation.
"At least for now, I won't accept you."
"..."
As the words fell, the light in Henie's eyes gradually dimmed a bit.
Although Henie had always known.
She had never had any expectations.
She clearly knew the gap between herself and the professor, so she only needed to secretly like him.
Henie liked the professor, but she wouldn't let the professor be troubled because of her.
Even if she just secretly liked him like this, liked him for a lifetime.
Even she herself wouldn't know.
Since when could a succubus be so faithful?
Wait a minute?
Henie's eyes regained some light.
Didn't Professor Viktor just say,
At least for now?
She looked up at Viktor somewhat disbelievingly, but could only see his usual indifference.
"You're very weak, you can't even be called a mage right now."
"At least reach a level where you can barely keep up with me."
She stared blankly at Viktor, but the next second, a black robe fell on her face, burying her.
With her vision completely blocked, Henie could no longer see Viktor's figure. She wanted to pull the robe away, but only heard Viktor's voice:
"Put on your clothes properly, don't forget you still have something to report to me."
After leaving these words, there was only the sound of a door opening and closing.
When Henie managed to pull the robe away, Viktor had already left the room.
But a sense of happiness intertwined in Henie's heart, her memory seemingly still retaining Viktor's words.
"Catch up to... Professor Viktor?"
As the most renowned genius mage, Viktor had already reached the fourth tier level at a young age.
Could she do it...
However, after the intertwining of happiness, the magic power inside her began to surge like seawater.
This gradually strengthening magic power seemed to prove something to Henie.
Catching up to Viktor was not an impossible task.
Henie hugged the robe, cheering herself on.
In fact, Viktor didn't know that succubi had another major characteristic that players would never discover.
That is, once a succubus has set her sights on someone, she will never give up.
She will always chase this target, catch him, and never let go even in death.
Until this body withers away.
"I can definitely do it, definitely!"
...
When Viktor walked out the door, the crow was dozing off on the handrail at the top of the stairs.
Viktor said nothing, walking up to Vega.
He grabbed its neck in one swift motion.
The crow woke up instantly, its one eye bulging as if suffocating!
"Let go, Viktor! Let go! Are you trying to suffocate me... Just kidding~"
Vega revealed a teasing look, easily breaking free from Viktor's grasp.
It flew to Viktor's shoulder, somewhat disgruntled as it preened its feathers—it said its feathers were very beautiful.
Well, it's hard to understand a crow's aesthetics.
Soon, after tidying its feathers, Vega mocked Viktor in a very annoying tone:
"What's the matter, our great Viktor finished so quickly?"
"Even without counting the time to undress, you only took five minutes, isn't that a bit...?"
Vega looked Viktor up and down, its eyes full of mockery.
"Sometimes I really want to tear that bird beak of yours apart."
Viktor calmly responded to Vega, walking straight towards the study.
Hearing this, Vega didn't shut its beak. Instead, it laughed even more uncontrollably, holding its stomach with both wings and chirping with laughter.
"No way, between being a beast and being less than a beast, you actually chose the latter?"
"Are you perhaps... not up to it?"
Viktor still ignored it, continuing to walk on his own.
Vega got more and more excited as it spoke, giggling towards the end.
"Hey, she's a succubus, you know. There will always be a day when she can't hold on anymore."
"You can't believe that a succubus will never... right?"
Viktor stopped in his tracks and looked down at Vega.
"Since she is Henie, she will only obey my orders."
"A succubus that's too weak cannot withstand the magic power of a fourth-tier mage. Acting on impulse would only harm her."
"So, she needs to become stronger."
Vega listened, somewhat bewildered. Soon, it understood Viktor's meaning, and a dense cunning appeared in its eyes.
"You can even utilize the admiration of those close to you. Should I say you're cold-hearted or praise you for your foresight?"
Viktor no longer paid attention to it, leaving only Vega's voice echoing in his ears:
"I hope that when the time comes, you won't include me in your schemes as well."
