I Was Reincarnated As An Instructor In An R18 Game... - Chapter 92

After a while, I woke up to the sensation of someone gently stroking me.

When I opened my eyes, Lucienne was holding my head in his arms and staring at me with a tender, blissful expression.

The feeling of her large br3asts pressing against me was pleasant, and as I turned to my side, I hugged Lucienne and spoke in a slightly apologetic tone.

“It seems I fell asleep… I’m sorry.”

“It’s fine. I got to see your cute sleeping face.”

As Lucienne shifted, pressing her chest against me, I kissed her over and over and buried my face in her enormous br3asts.

Enveloped in the sweet scent, I was intoxicated by the soothing feeling.

All the while, Lucienne kept running her fingers tenderly through my hair.

I took Lucienne’s hand, stood up from the bed, and we headed into the bath together.

The innkeeper here must be fond of baths. This time, it was a Western-style bathhouse.

We washed each other and flirted a bit before stepping out of the bath together.

To my surprise, the clock read 10 p.m., even though it felt much later.

After talking it over with Lucienne, we decided to head home and left the inn.

When I said, “We’ll have a more relaxed time next time,” Lucienne’s face flush with happiness as she nodded in agreement.

Having escorted Lucienne home, I got back to Suzuya and saw most of the tavern cleanup was already done.

I stopped by the kitchen, where Niimi was cleaning, gave her a hug and a kiss, then got started on the detailed cleaning.

According to Niimi, Foria-san condition has been improving quite a bit.

I smiled at Niimi, who was beaming with joy and said it was all thanks to her and Elysia.

Niimi gave me a soft smile at my words, then hugged me from behind and stayed like that for a while.

The next day, at the training grounds.

The sky was overcast with rain clouds directly above, casting a dim light over our training.

Before training began, I let the students know that we would stop if it started to rain.

Even with a strong body, you can’t beat sickness. It’s important to stay cautious.

While scanning the students during training, I noticed a particular scene out of the corner of my eye.

A female student was talking to Roy, while behind him, Lucy tilted her head with a curious expression.

…So this is that event, huh.

I muttered to myself internally and casually approached Roy and the others, trying not to seem suspicious.

In this event, Roy gets invited out by a female student named Linare.

Linare has shiny, wavy chestnut hair that flows past her shoulders, and her personality is grounded and dependable.

She’s great at taking care of people and picking up on social cues, which helps her stay connected with her peers.

Notably, Linare is second only to Erika when it comes to chest size in their year.

Linare’s invitation is actually a trap, and if Roy goes along, he ends up getting attacked.

It wouldn’t be so bad if that were all, but it also damages Roy’s relationship with whichever love interest he has the highest bond with at the time.

Though it’s a short span of three days, an additional event always triggers during it that further damages the relationship.

I’ve watched countless gameplay videos, and no matter how careful the player is, the event always happens.

If it happens, several of Roy’s love interests end up leaving him.

If you turn down Linare’s invitation, she ends up leaving the academy, though the reason is never explained.

After that, her family’s bakery closes down, and she disappears.

As I casually moved toward Roy under the guise of watching the students, I noticed he looked uncomfortable.

With an anxious expression, Lucy gently pinched the back of Roy’s clothes between her fingers.

With a small sigh, I called out to Roy and his group.

“What’s going on?”

“…!”

“Instructor Reid… No, it’s nothing. Sorry, Linare. I already promised Lucy I’d spend time with her today, so I can’t go.”

“Y-Yeah, I understand.”

Lucy looked visibly relieved by Roy’s response, then took his hand and walked away with him holding hands.

Linare gave me a polite nod, though offering a small smile there was a glooming aura surrounding her.

As I addressed Roy, I caught the hopeless look that briefly flashed across Linare’s face.

“Linare.”

“Eh… yes?”

Just as I thought, she’s smiling, but her mood is heavy.

Kneeling down on one leg, I met Linare’s gaze and asked with a sincere expression.

Since not even the analysis team knew the reason, asking her directly was the only option.

“You seem really down. What’s wrong? Will you tell me? I get the feeling you’re about to disappear somewhere.”

“…What do I do… Instructor, what should I do~~~?”

“Whoa!? Hold on, calm down… s-sorry!”

In response to what I said, Linare’s face contorted like it was about to break, and she started crying.

Linare was hiding her face with both hands, but tears were falling to the ground.

I gave Linare a quick apology, then picked her up in a princess carry and started walking toward the academy.

While Erika was staring at me with a doubtful look, I used my eyes to urge her to come along.

Erika noticed my gaze, let out a deep sigh, wiped her sweat with a cloth, and followed after me.

At a corner of the academy, hidden from the students’ view, I lowered Linare to the ground as she continued sobbing messily.

Linare leaned her back against the wall, hugged her knees, and sobbed uncontrollably.

Erika, having caught up, saw Linare’s state, rushed over in a panic, and took out a cloth from her magic bag. While wiping Linare’s tears, she looked at me and asked with a suspicious expression.

“What in the world happened?”

“I don’t know. The atmosphere felt off, so I tried to ask what was going on…”

“Then she ended up crying?”

“…Yeah.”

Erika tilted her head and looked worriedly at Linare, who was still crying.

I dropped to one knee, looked into Linare’s face, and gently asked her.

Not to pressure her, but so that she would start speaking on her own.

“Linare?”

“I c-couldn’t, sniff, invite Roy-kun outtttttt.”

“…Are you sad because you couldn’t invite him?”

“Meeeee and my moooom are gonna be sooooold!! Waaahhh!!”

“…! Where is your mother right now!?”

At Linare’s words, I stood up quickly and spoke firmly with a serious expression.

Erika’s face also turned grim at Linare’s words. She stopped wiping tears and placed both hands on Linare’s cheeks.

Linare, face scrunched from crying, responded to Erika and me.

“Still, sniff, at home, at the bakery…”

“Erika, I’m counting on you for the rest. It’s fine to cancel training. Go with Linare to Croana’s and explain everything.”

“I understand… Please take care of Linare-san’s mother. Just make sure…… you do not do anything reckless, alright?”

“Yeah, thank you!”

I gave Erica, who was worried about me, a slight smile, then quickly returned to a serious expression and started running.

Within the academy, Croana’s place is the safest, and Fia and Lea are there now as well.

While running to the main gate of the academy, I muttered softly.

“Sharle.”

“…Yes.”

“Roy was targeted. Going after the hero’s son is not something to take lightly.”

“My comrades saw it too. They have already gone to investigate.”

“…Will you help me?”

Sharle laughed at my question, and I felt a gentle hand stroke my cheek.

Touching my stroked cheek with one hand, I showed a surprised expression and looked beside me with just my eyes.

Of course, there was nothing or no one there, but I couldn’t help looking.

Up to now, I had only experienced indirect signals such as warm breezes and noises.

However, it was the first time I was touched directly, and I was surprised.

Maybe my expression was amusing, Sharle spoke with a voice that seemed to be laughing.

“I will help. Do you know the location?”

“…Yes, I know.”

I had already grasped the location of the bakery without needing the analysis team’s help.

I put strength into my legs and increased my running speed.

I ran with all my might, wishing to make it in time.
