Using the excuse of processing a backlog of legislative bills, Erika remained cooped up in her office for an entire week, which happened to match the vacation time Evelyn had originally promised her.
During that period, the girl conducted extensive research on her newly acquired Status Window System, discovering that its structure and usage were unexpectedly convenient.
For instance:
Perhaps due to some subconscious psychological cue, if she looked closely at the words ‘Seductive Enchantress’ in the Class column or let her finger linger on the panel for a long time, a detailed explanation of the item would pop up.
**[Class: Seductive Enchantress Level 9]**
**[An existence whose charm, temperament, and appearance exceed normal thresholds. When seducing others or being seduced by others, the Charisma stat receives a corrective boost. As the level increases, this effect will strengthen further.]**
**[Note: The charm boost depends on the target and may be bidirectional. (In incredibly small text)]**
Well… it was basically like that.
But as for her seducing others or being seduced? That hadn’t happened, had it?
The only ones she felt she had physical contact with were Evelyn and Emil. She considered herself an honest, well-behaved half-fairy who had never seduced anyone. Being seduced was limited to those two wicked young ladies whose charm was so lethal it didn’t distinguish between men and women.
Then why was the level so high? ‘It must be because my initial level was high,’ she thought. ‘Besides, most people seem to find me quite annoying.’
In any case, the important thing was that although this so-called ‘Seductive Enchantress’ class mostly seemed useless to Erika, who couldn’t even imagine being in a relationship, it was unexpectedly helpful at specific times.
Despite receiving a sharp chop to the head, the girl did not back down. She stood up with a *whoosh* and continued to stare at Emil with shimmering eyes.
In Emil’s eyes, those usually eerie, charming, and fragile eyes now possessed a rare hint of aggression, making the usually lively and fiery girl feel a bit flustered.
According to Erika’s observations, the taller girl was actually the type who had zero resistance against a forceful offensive.
“Lady Emil…” When the girl called out the other’s name in a slightly dazed voice, the heroic blonde girl grabbed her ponytail with her right hand and tilted her head, her face flushing red.
“Even if you look at me like that, I will absolutely not let you touch me there again! Last time was the final time. There won’t be a next time. How dare you ā “
Even though Emil was acting as if she were just talking to herself to play it cool, Erika could clearly see that she had been deeply moved by her teary Fairy Eyes.
She knew this because the words ‘Seductive Enchantress XP +5’ appeared before her eyes.
Therefore, Erika summoned her courage again and voiced her next request. “I wouldn’t dare presume to touch your most precious place, however, as a substitute…”
“As a substitute…?”
Erika paused. When saying something important, one must never appear rushed.
By remaining calm and giving the other person time to breathe and focus, the speech would be more effective. Only then would the listener develop a greater sense of anticipation.
Erika called this the ‘basic quality of an actor.’
However, Emil naturally could not endure this ‘one-beat pause.’ Looking extremely anxious and restless, she kept urging her. “…So what is it? Just say it quickly. You know I don’t like dragging things out, right?”
The long-eared enchantress felt the timing was right and spoke cautiously. “I wouldn’t dare hope to touch them… but could you let me see?”
“See… see what? See what?”
“I want to see your breasts, Lady Emil!”
“See what! Are you insane!?”
Emil hurriedly used her hands to pull the collar of her dress upward, completely concealing the cleavage. Her voice was even a bit hoarse. “You idiot! Do you think we’re five-year-old girls entering a bathhouse together? Even if we’re both women, is that something you can just see whenever you want, you rude person!”
She turned her face away, her ponytail swinging to the front and resting against her white collarbone. She whispered to herself, “Do you even know what that means…”
Unexpectedly, while Erika was still smarting from the rejection and trying to come up with a new plan, her fairy ears rarely missed an important piece of information. She was simply troubled that the taller girl’s reaction was even more intense and difficult to handle than she had imagined.
‘I guess the rumors about girls giggling and showing each other their breasts in the locker room are fake!’
Even with the Charisma bonus, it seemed that things that were off-limits remained off-limits. From this, it was clear that this system had not yet reached the level of a game cheat code.
As the daughter of a great Marquis, Emil Lioness practiced her concepts of chastity quite resolutely. Without a confirmed relationship, it was likely impossible for anyone, male or female, to feast their eyes. The last time she succeeded was probably only because Emil felt guilty and wanted to compensate her.
She was gaining useless knowledge in every aspect.
Erika was busy thinking about her new discoveries and had temporarily stopped talking when a voice came from the side again. “…Hey, there’s no need for you to be that depressed.”
“Huh? Do I look depressed?”
“Yes. Just like Marguerite in *The Lady of the Camellias* that you told me about. It makes one want to see inside your heart… Ah!…”
Emil stopped halfway through her sentence. She seemed to have suddenly lost her voice out of shame because of her own words. Her face instantly became scorching hot, like a branding iron that had been in a furnace for too long.
While Erika (Not Responding) was still feeling confused, she heard Emil speak in a voice as faint as a mosquito. “…Seeing my whole body is… is too absurd. But… but we can change it to something else…”
“Change to what?”
The taller girl lowered her head, gathering her ponytail into one hand while using the other to slightly pull down her back collar. She turned her body slightly, revealing her nape to Erika.
Her usually energetic voice was now muffled and unclear. “I can… I can let you touch the back of my neck…”
“Eh? Really?”
Although she didn’t have a specific fetish for it, usually, whether it was Evelyn or Emil, it was always up to them whether they were the ones initiating or if she was.
She had been incredibly passive. Did she finally have a chance to launch a proactive attack?
Furthermore, the girl could vaguely sense that this gesture carried a special meaning, which made her feel a bit surprised.
“That… but there’s a condition.”
“A condition?”
“Yes. Aren’t we… aren’t we in an equal relationship? Then we must each agree to a condition from the other. Tomorrow, I’m going shopping in the city… and you have to come with me. Also… don’t tell anyone about what happened today. Do you understand?”
Erika nodded repeatedly.
*Thump-thump, thump-thump.* At the same time, the girl’s heartbeat began to accelerate violently.
She finally had a chance to do this without the scent of body wash and without being the passive party. Although it didn’t touch any sensitive or private areas, this gesture looked very… uh, erotic!
“I have one last question. Have you ever done this with anyone else…?”
‘Wait, the thing I did with Evelyn was just bathing, right?’
So, the girl answered quite righteously, “Never!”
Emil seemed to let out a sigh of relief and whispered, “That’s good then…” She looked over with burning eyes, slightly bending her knees to bring them to the same height. “In that case, does that mean you still don’t understand the meaning of this gesture?”
“Yes, of course.”
*Rustle, rustle.*
Emil said nothing more and gently moved backward until she was right in front of the girl. This caused Erika to take a small, nervous step back.
*Thud.*
Her back hit the large tree. She was like a small animal that had been backed into a corner.
‘Wait?’
‘Why does it feel like I’m still the passive one?’
