Chapter 121: Survival Test R18 (14)



After wrapping up dinner, we had a bit of time before bedtime. Alice was swinging her sword in a corner for training, while the twins and I were sitting around the campfire, chatting.

"So, you spent three days with Alice?"

"Yeah, is that so strange?"

"Guess not…"

Lucy couldn\'t hide the envy in her eyes upon hearing about my three-day hangout with Alice. It wasn\'t the food she was jealous of; she probably wished she\'d been the one hanging out with me.

"Hoyeon, how many teams have you run into?"

"I\'ve bumped into about three or four, I guess?"

"Wow… We lucked out with just one encounter."

"Still, you came out on top. Pretty impressive, right?"

"Yes… Hehe."

Nice one, Lumi! Her progress is shining through more each day. It\'s satisfying to see her putting in the effort to improve.

"…"

Lucy, on the other hand, was eyeing the two of us as if trying to figure out the perfect moment to jump into the conversation.

She\'s becoming more like Lumi…

While things have been going smoothly between us, seeing me get chummy with other girls seems to get under her skin. Especially when the three of us are together, I catch those hints.

I should probably figure out how to get things started with Lucy… Maybe during the festival?

With so many unpredictable events happening lately, progress in winning Lucy\'s affection has stalled. In the original game, resolving the Felix incident would\'ve naturally boosted her affection just by spending ordinary time together. But the current situation doesn\'t allow for more quality time with Lucy or Lumi. Maybe I should think about juggling both of them at the same time. Allocating shared time for them might just do the trick. I\'ll ponder it more once this survival test wraps up.

I checked the point rankings.

———————–

Current point rankings on the island:

1. Nam Daeun – 1,320p

2. Lee Hoyeon – 450p

3. Alice – 404p

4. Kim Younghan – 370p

No changes in the rankings yet. Nam Daeun is firmly in the lead, followed by me in 2nd place, Alice in 3rd, and Kim Younghan in 4th. But Kim Younghan seems to be closing in on Alice bit by bit.

He might outscore us by tomorrow…

If we\'re short on points, we\'ll have to go all out on the last day. Survival is all well and good, but our aim is to clinch that 1st place.

"Can I get some water?"

"Oh, sure. Here. You\'ve been working pretty hard."

Alice, wrapping up her sword-swinging workout, took a sip of water beside Lucy.

Is she getting ready to call it a night?

"Let\'s hash out our watch plan. Lucy and Lumi probably haven\'t had a decent meal like us and might not have slept comfortably. Can we set them up in a good spot?" I looked at Alice for her approval. The twins likely didn\'t enjoy a proper meal or a cozy place to sleep.

"Do as you please."

Luckily, Alice gave the green light.

"Alright, Lumi\'s up first. I\'ll take the second watch, Alice the third, and Lucy will be the last. Sound good?"

"Thank you, Hoyeon."

"Oh, come on… But thanks."

Lucy and Lumi looked at me with grateful eyes, but there was a plan in motion. After swapping with Lumi and finishing what we couldn\'t do before, I would give an amazing mana massage when swapping with Alice.

"So… shall we get some sleep?"

Day 5, afternoon.

A massive grizzly bear made a weird noise as it met the ground. A sizable scar adorned its belly, and Nam Daeun stood before it while whipping her sword clean. Having already taken down more than ten monsters, she showed no signs of slowing. She darted towards the next monster, and her sword\'s sharpness overwhelmed its feeble attempts to keep up.

"Wow… She\'s more of a monster than the grizzly bear…"

"This idiot…" Kim Younghan knocked the head of a baffled student but kept his gaze on Nam Daeun.

But really, she\'s a monster…

Of course, he didn\'t let it show like the idiot next to him.

"Good work."

"Here\'s the points."

"Thanks. I\'ll transfer the contact voucher."

Nam Daeun didn\'t dwell on conversation. She simply distributed points after the hunt, accepted the contact voucher, and vanished.

"Is she calling her boyfriend with that? She\'s so keen."

"Who knows… I really don\'t get her."

"Girl that pretty must have a boyfriend, right?"

"Forget it. Quit speculating and focus on your work."

"Yeah, yeah, Captain No Fun."

"…"

Kim Younghan watched Nam Daeun\'s figure retreat as he absentmindedly scratched his head.

The plan was flawless. Using Lee Hoyeon as bait, he gathered the students, and as the representative, Kim Younghan collected points. Currently, his team has surpassed 70 members. Even those initially uninterested were drawn in by the sheer number of people.

The only unsettling factor is Nam Daeun. Despite being on the same team, she didn\'t receive a share of the food distribution, avoided mingling with other students, focused on hunting monsters, and made repeated calls from an undisclosed location. Kim Younghan couldn\'t shake the uneasy feeling of not knowing what Nam Daeun was thinking.

Now distanced from Kim Younghan\'s team, Nam Daeun used the contact voucher.

[Available slots: 1. Time: 5 minutes. The academy does not engage in eavesdropping or recording. However, if any actions affecting the exam are revealed, severe punishment may follow.]

Drrrring-

Nam Daeun skillfully operated her smartwatch, waiting for the connection sound.

[is?]

"Hey, are you well, Dahee?"

[Yeah! Sis, I\'ve been waiting for your call!]

"I\'m glad to hear. Were you not bored?"

[Uncle Mingyu played a lot with me! Sis, since you got first place, he even bought snacks! Thank you!]

"It must have been nice…"

The leader of the Buyers Guild practically held Dahee as a hostage. Despite growing up, the term "Uncle Mingyu" still didn\'t roll off Nam Daeun\'s tongue easily. But since she had never directly insulted someone, she didn\'t know that method either. Just like an elephant raised since childhood that couldn\'t rebel even when it grew up, Nam Daeun\'s defense mechanism is thick unless someone touches her younger sister.

[Sis, are you coming to see me next week?]

"Of course. I\'ll buy lots of delicious things."

With her practical test first-place status confirmed, Mingyu began treating her well again.

Just by looking at that, it\'s clear he was right when I was little… but it won\'t last more than a month.

Nam Daeun swallowed a sigh and continued the call with her little sister.

[Can\'t you come this weekend? I really want to see you, sis…]

"Sorry, I\'m currently in the middle of a test."

[The practical test is over, though, right?]

Nam Dahee sent a pitiful look to Nam Daeun and asked, "That\'s true… But I have a debt to pay…"

Originally, she had intended to give up the moment she was told that she couldn\'t contact her little sister for a week. However, the face of Lee Hoyeon, who graciously yielded the 1st place in the practical test, kept coming to her mind. She then found out that communication vouchers could be obtained from monsters she defeated by chance. From that moment, Nam Daeun began to formulate a plan. A plan to convey points to Lee Hoyeon and make him the 1st place.

[Really?! Uncle Mingyu said people must repay their debt. Otherwise, he said they\'re a bad person!]

"You shouldn\'t say that…"

[Okay! If Big Sis says so, I won\'t!]

"Hehe… I love you, Dahee."

[I love you too, sis!]

Nam Daeun continued the call with a contented smile.

"Hoyeon… Wake up, Hoyeon…"

I opened my eyes, feeling someone tapping my cheeks.

"Oh. You\'re finally awake."

Inside the small tent, Lumi was waking me up.

"Mmm… I\'ll get up."

"Okay."

Even though the tent wasn\'t vast, with three of us, we had to sleep close. I grabbed water from the subspace pouch to quench my thirst and make sure not to accidentally touch Lucy\'s arm as I got up.

Lumi went ahead and sat in front of the crackling campfire.

"Oh, Hoyeon… um…"

As if expecting it, she stood up, and I pulled her into a hug, then gave her a kiss. The soft sounds of breathing and the gentle forest murmurs filled the tranquil woods. The Rune Barrier had already been set up when I left the tent. To the drone in the sky, it probably looked like I was just sitting by the campfire.

"Lumi, wanna go for another round?"

I told her to wake me up 30 minutes earlier than planned. I checked the time, and she got it right. It\'s been a bit over an hour since I passed out, feeling a bit groggy, but I can tough it out.

"Y-Yes… to make up for what we missed earlier…"

"Strip." I kept it short as my hand found its way to her chest.

"Mmm…"

As my hand roamed over her body, she started to peel off her clothes. Getting naked in the middle of the woods might be a little unconventional, but Lumi tossed her outerwear onto a nearby rock and slid her stockings down.

"Were you expecting this during your watch?"

"Mmm…"

Her already wet entrance was eagerly waiting for this.

"I\'m putting it in."

"Yes, yes… Mmm… ♡"

My penis slid into her welcoming warmth.

***

"Ah, ah… I… I… Ahh!" Lumi, who was holding onto me tightly and quivering, let out a delicate moan.

"Yes… I\'m about to come, Lumi…!" I wrapped my arms around her tightly and released the last of my seed. She shuddered against me, her small frame trembling, and our lips soon met in a kiss.

"Umm… So good…"

I savored the post-coital bliss with sloppy kisses as I greedily cupped her luscious breasts. As my rod began to soften, she drew it out of her steamy pussy and dropped to her knees. I stroked her hair and gazed the display above.

Watching the stars while getting my dick sucked feels incredible.

Glancing at my smartwatch, I saw I had only 10 minutes to wake Alice.

"Lumi, we went on for too long. Alice needs to wake up now."

"Huh…? Oh, it\'s been two hours already…"

"Sorry, I lost track of time. You go in first and sleep. I have to switch with Alice."

"Okay… I\'m… well… fed. Thanks, Hoyeon…! Blushing, Lumi thanked me and quickly scampered into the tent.

"What the…" I couldn\'t help but chuckle. I thought it was kind of cute in its own way.

I spent about 20 minutes tending to the dying campfire, adding more firewood to make it burn stronger before heading into the tent to wake up Alice.

"Alice… Wake up." Since I wasn\'t sure how she\'d respond to a playful poke on the cheek like Lumi did, I decided to go for a more direct approach.

"I\'m up…"

Luckily, she woke up quickly.

"Yeah, come out slowly."

I had to wake Alice up a bit later and time it carefully so that Lumi would already be asleep. It meant sacrificing some sleep and waking up early, but I had no other option. Success in building a harem comes with less sleep.

But as I glanced at Alice, who had managed to sleep for a solid four hours, she appeared even more exhausted than me, despite my measly two-hour slumber.

"Are you alright? You seem really worn out."

"I\'m… just not a morning person," she replied, her gaze briefly meeting mine before shifting away.

Ah, so it seems that mornings aren\'t her strong suit.
