Chapter 135 - 134 - Momoka Punishment

Elliot’s questions and curiosity can be answered easily. Just by showing my student card, which was linked to my identity stored on the main server of Special High School, It can answered Elliot’s curiosity and questions. While handing over my student card, I also persuade Elliot to scan the QR code located on the right end of the card. Beep... Elliot quickly scanned the QR code that copied my student ID number. After copying my student ID number, Elliot smiled wryly after seeing my original ranking. "You are an asshole, Weiss." "Since when did you become this strong? Even though your main ability is only long-range support magic. How could you get an anomaly rank that is not detected by the system? If I hadn’t come to meet you in person, you will become a ghost, who wandering around Class S," said Elliot with a comment that made El Ria and Momoka curious about this. "Well, it can’t be helped. The re-test they did wasn’t much different from the previous one. You know... I don’t like doing the same thing twice. Because I was easily annoyed, then I showed my true abilities as someone who can use basic magic based on the situation that had occurred in the Dungeon. Long story short, I managed to surpass the record achieved by the first rank in Class S," I replied while creating a new lie, so that Elliot wouldn’t make a big deal out of it. What happened during the re-test is an unspoken secret known only to those concerned. I also used another lie to cover up a re-examination that was used as a cover for researching the apocalypse disaster that had occurred in another world, and lured one of the sages from another world into a trap that was being prepared by Dontol Xu Mei. It would all be too complicated to tell Elliot, who had been my best friend since junior high school, and I didn’t want to make him feel guilty after finding out such a big, scary secret event. Elliot, who already knew my real ranking, understood the reason why my name was not listed on the system, who only displayed rankings from one to one hundred students. "I didn’t think it would become something this big. If other students knew about this, then you would get all kinds of battle challenges from any students from other worlds," said Elliot while handing his smartphone to El Ria, who was curious about my real ranking. "Yeah, that’s going to happen anyway. Unless, they have the guts to challenge someone from Class S with a slightly higher number of combat ability points than a Great Hero from another world," I replied while drinking the remaining half of my double shot coffee. Slurp... Slurp... While enjoying the comfortable feeling of caffeine actively moving in my body, I also feels more energetic and free from drowsiness for a while. It made my brain think hard about the possibilities that would happen in the future after my ranking became public knowledge after get restricted to access by the public, and breaking the limits of the capabilities that the Special High School apps was able to show ranking list. "Whatever happens in the future, it looks like I’ll have to work hard like I did in middle school again, huh?" I continued, saying something that made El Ria and Momoka curious again. "You triggered it yourself, idiot. You’re already at the age where you should take responsibility for doing something stupid with your own hands. You can’t just wash our hands of it because you’re still underage anymore, you know." "Hey, I’m still an underage if I use my birth date." "Isn’t that only valid for a few more months?" "At least I’m still an underage compared to you, who are already old." "We’re only a few months apart, you’ll be as old as me!" While Elliot and I were joking around, I suddenly felt something wrapped around my arm. By the time I realized it, I was too late to dodge Momoka’s succubus tail. "Oh my older brother, this seems different from what I’ve heard before," Momoka said in a soft, valley whisper, and the movement of her Succubus tail that still wrapped around my arm. "M-Momoka?" I tried to stay calm after her Succubus tail locked my body movements to stay sitting on the sofa. "Yes, my older brother? Do you want to express your guilt after deceiving your cute little sister and making her worry endlessly earlier?" Momoka replied, apparently still remembering the illusion of deception I had performed on her. Glup... I swallowed my saliva after seeing Momoka’s seriousness in punishing me, who had succeeded in making her believe that I had been demoted to Class A. "I-I can explain that—" "I don’t need that explanation!" Momoka retorted in a quick, terrifying voice. Grriitt... The succubus Momoka’s tail tightened, making my arm feel numb. In this situation, I tried to find a way to escape the life-or-death situation of Momoka’s tight tail. My body, which had just received caffeine intake, triggered my brain, which was working hard to think of a reasonable reason. "I was going to say the same thing to Elliot," I said in a gentle tone and tried to ignore my arm that was numb from the pressure of Succubus Momoka’s tail. "As you know, the re-tests administered directly by the sage from another world are an internal secret and are known only to those concerned," I continued, using a serious tone. Grriitt... "What I have said should never be known to you. Isn’t that right, Hermione?" As the Succubus Momoka’s tail began to wrap around my arm even tighter, I relied on the luck of one of the Maids tasked with protecting me from a long-range spy spell. Brrrttt... Zzzrrrttt... I smiled in relief after Hermione answered my words with a phone call. "See? Right now, I’m being watched by one of the sages from another world whose job is to ensure this secret doesn’t get out. I hope you’ll keep my anomalous ranking a secret," as if to add a dramatic touch, I gave a warning to Momoka, El Ria, and Elliot. Like pushing my luck to go too far and hit the maximum jackpot, it made Momoka lower the intensity of her Succubus tail’s pressure on my arm. Swiiilll... While untying her Succubus’s tail, I saw Momoka’s face drooping down in despair after hearing my explanation. Even though it was just an explanation I made up by pushing my luck, at least I could still survive for tomorrow. My arm, which was numb after feeling the strong grasp of Succubus Momoka’s tail, couldn’t be moved. "Momoka..." I called her and smiled flatly at her. "I can’t feel my arm that you have wrapped tightly with your Succubus tail," I continued, smiling flatly at her. Deg... Deg... My body suddenly felt unbearable fatigue, and my vision became blurry. Thanks to Momoka’s Succubus tail wrapping tightly around me, it temporarily stopped the flow of blood that supplied oxygen to my brain. Even with my body under the influence of caffeine, who keeping me awake, it still couldn’t counteract the lack of oxygen circulating in my blood vessels. Bruukkk!! With a flat smile directed at Momoka, I fell unconscious with my eyelids wide open. "W-Weiss?" Momoka tried to call me by swinging her Succubus tail, which slapped my face. Plaakk... Plaakk... Even when I was slowly fainting like this, I still managed to get a slap from the Succubus’ tail. My pride as an older brother seems to have fallen in Momoka’s eyes. Blink!! Blink!! Just as my body felt heavy and my consciousness began to fade, I was suddenly shocked by a white light that filled my vision. The white light that filled my vision looked like a spotlight shining directly at my face. At that moment, I was greeted by someone I knew. "Ara~ Ara~ good morning, Master Weiss. I hope this ability of mine doesn’t surprise you," greeted a nine-tailed fox girl I had become acquainted with me. "Ashitaka..." I returned her greeting by calling her name. Twwiittcchh... Twwiittcchh... "Fufu~ Yes, Master Weiss. Did you miss me?" said Ashitaka, who was in her nine-tailed fox girl form and waving all her fox tails. "You get an unusually way to met me, huh?" "Yes, this is something that must be done to get out of the Dungeon and not be known to the public eyes. Does performing the astral projection make you feel uncomfortable, Master Weiss?" Ashitaka asked, which made me aware of my condition while performing the astral projection. I immediately looked around and realized my main body was lying on the floor with my eyelids open. "W-What happened, Ashitaka?" I asked, feeling something that defied logic and science. "Fufu~ don’t worry, Master Weiss. You were just unconscious and performing astral projection using my special ability," Ashitaka replied with a sweet smile. "This feels weird and makes me uncomfortable." "Everyone feels the same way. You’ll get used to it after doing astral projection a few times." "I hope, I don’t do astral projection too often." "Fufu~ I will still come this way. Unless Master Weiss gives me a phone number or social media account, and make Princess Amagi can contacting you personally rather doing this." "Ahh, so this is about Princess Amagi, huh?" "Fufu~" Twwiittcchh... Twwiittcchh... Whether this was a coincidence or not, Ashitaka’s arrival helped me in several ways, especially with Arvis, who wanted to be my Maid in the future and want to get proper training as a Maid. "If you’re here, that means the training is almost over?" "Yes, Master Weiss. Princess Amagi has become an obedient Maid to her Master along with the other fox girls." "That’s a good thing, do you mind training a female Oni to become a maid who obeys her Master?" I said as if wanting to give Ashitaka another task to do. "Master Weiss, I am ready to teach all the women who are willing to become your maids in the future. Does that mean I am officially became the one who will teach the manners and etiquette of a maid candidate?" Ashitaka asked with a sparkling look in her eyes. "I think that’s a good idea for a while." "Then, I will gladly undertake the duties of instructor for your future Maids candidates. Then, I will take my leave to report this to Princess Amagi, Master Weiss." "..." before Ashitaka left, I asked Ashitaka one important thing. "Ashitaka, you already know my social media accounts. Why go to such hard ways to meet me?" I asked, sensing something strange. Ashitaka and I already exchanged messages several times using social media, so there is no other reason for Ashitaka to use her special ability like this. "Master Weiss... a maid who misses her master will sometimes do anything to meet her master. Including performing astral projection like this," Ashitaka replied with a smile before disappearing, and my vision was filled with darkness again.
