They had just become friends with Hachiman first, that's all. Their relationship with him was closer, and Hachiman didn't dislike them. If Hachiman had become friends with Kita Ikuyo, Miura Yumiko, and the others first, they probably would've felt inferior and been too embarrassed to get close to him.
"Uh, haha... I think... whether it's Nogami or Hamasaki, we could be a bit gentler in our attitude... it's not like we absolutely have to turn them into s!aves..."
Hearing Yuina's friendly question, Kita Ikuyo's expression turned extremely stiff. Her small pale hands clenched into fists against her thighs, her head lowered, not daring to meet their eyes as she stammered softly in persuasion.
Normally she wasn't this shy or timid, but right now, how could she dare to speak loudly?
Even though she knew Nogami and the others didn't have a good reputation, liking to secretly bully people, they had never been caught by the disciplinary committee, and some of the victims didn't dare speak up either.
But Minami and Rin were sitting there with their wet thighs still un-dried, seriously discussing right in front of her how to "educate" female classmates into becoming Hikigaya-kun's s!aves... that was terrifying.
If she hadn't hung out with Nijika and the others, hadn't been put on Hikigaya-kun's "table" together with them and eaten up piece by piece by him, would she also have been dragged over by Rin and the others and "educated" into becoming Hikigaya-kun's s!ave?
Actually, when Kita Ikuyo heard Ijichi Nijika say that the three gyaru girls in their class often sat on and under Hachiman's desk chatting with him, she was completely stunned.
Then Yamada Ryou even said that if the four members of Kessoku Band couldn't rehearse smoothly and failed to perform successfully at the next concert, they might have to invite Hachiman over again, have him hold Ijichi Nijika and conduct from the center, using a baton to improve their coordination and chemistry. She didn't even know what expression she should make anymore.
She had originally thought that what happened in the Service Club's family restaurant, where everyone got put on the table and completely eaten clean by Hachiman, was just a special case. No matter how embarrassing or awkward, it all happened in private spaces.
But now... They were all the same age. So why were these people so outstanding? Whether it was class, eating, or holding concerts, no matter what they were doing, they could activate some kind of invisibility magic and do such outrageous things at the same time? Did you all learn magic and become magical girls just to do this?
Even so, no matter how unwilling she was to take part in those activities that absolutely couldn't be told to outsiders, she still had to face the difficult issue brought up by Yuina and the others.
Re-"educating" Nogami Izumi and those gyaru girls... wasn't that a bit too much?
Even though what Nogami and the others were doing, bullying classmates, was indeed bad, already crossing into school bullying, and they were not just ordinary problem students, she felt it was right for them to receive some punishment. But turning them into s!aves...
She felt like, if they did that, they would be the ones bullying Nogami and the others instead.
"Forget it. If Kita doesn't want to get involved, we won't force her. Let's just enjoy these games together tonight."
Seeing Kita Ikuyo hesitate, clearly uninterested in the idea of turning Nogami Izumi into Hachiman's s!ave, even somewhat resistant to it, Rin waved her hand indifferently.
This kind of thing wasn't easy for Kita Ikuyo to accept, but it didn't matter. At worst, they could find someone else.
What they didn't say was that being dragged over and "educated" into Little Hikigaya's s!aves might actually be the best outcome for Nogami Izumi and the others. After all, Sobu High was no longer the same place where any random rich girl could run wild.
So many important figures were gathered there now. Even if Nogami and the others restrained themselves and behaved like good students, they could still be "settled" at any time. That was why they thought they could "save" them.
They had pulled Kita Ikuyo over mainly because she was also a gyaru under Little Hikigaya, thinking she could join this kind of gyaru bullying game and compete with Ijichi Nijika to see who could last longer. It wasn't necessary for her to help.
"Then let's start by approaching Hamasaki and the others. Hamasaki and Sasaki both seem to do part-time modeling like Marin, and their figures and looks are pretty great."
Minami nodded with a grin, her gaze falling on Kamijo Maki on the big screen, who had already reached a critical state and urgently needed Hachiman to suppress her.
"Among them, Kurumizaka seems to be a rich young lady too. Her family runs a big cosmetics company. She's probably similar to Maki, who's playing with Little Hikigaya right now, so she'll likely be willing to get close to him."
"After pulling them in, we'll have to keep working hard too. We can't let them take Little Hikigaya away."
Although they weren't very close with Hamasaki Reina, Sasaki Yukina, and Kurumizaka Ruri, they were all fairly active gyaru girls, so they knew a bit about each other, just in different classes. [T/N: These three guarus are also in my other Hentai World fanfic.]
But ever since they started frequently posting photos of Little Hikigaya that made the gyaru group chat envious, most of the topics in the chat ended up revolving around him. There was no end to discussions about him, and the chat, which originally included gossip, cosmetics, clothes, and all sorts of topics, gradually shifted.
After all, they all knew there were really a lot of girls in Sobu High connected to Little Hikigaya. Just picking a few could fuel gossip for ages.
Recently, the gossip had even reached the point where someone who skipped class saw several young, beautiful female teachers enter Hiratsuka-sensei's guidance room at once. Could it be that Little Hikigaya was inside receiving "guidance"?
"Don't worry. There aren't exactly few pretty girls around Little Hikigaya, and he's never disliked us. Why would he change his mind just because a few new gyaru show up? Anyway, now that we're done chatting, Kita, it's time for you to activate shared sensation and enjoy this with us, right?"
Yuina had no doubt about Hachiman's affection for them. She turned and smiled at Kita Ikuyo.
"Huh? Y-you guys go ahead, I'm heading back first!"
Kita Ikuyo froze for a moment, then quickly covered the shared sensation collar on her neck and tried to stand up to return to the Kessoku Band group next door.
There was no way she'd activate the shared sensation function here. If she couldn't hold back and cried out, drawing everyone's attention, she'd be utterly humiliated.
This wasn't just a possibility. It was guaranteed. It would definitely happen.
Everyone experienced this kind of thing differently. Some were extremely sensitive, others more dull.
But right now, the girls playing criminals in the Barrier of Desire game were all very close to Hachiman. Just lightly patting their soft, round cheeks made their moist lips part involuntarily. If she activated shared sensation and felt what they were feeling, she absolutely wouldn't be able to endure it.
"You've already experienced it personally with Hachiman, being this shy won't do."
Yuina was prepared. She grabbed Kita Ikuyo's hand and pressed her back onto the sofa.
"Hehe! Yeah. It's not your first time, what are you afraid of?"
"Don't worry, we'll set up soundproofing. No one else will hear."
Rin and Minami stepped forward to help, activating the shared sensation collar around Kita Ikuyo's neck while setting up a simple soundproof barrier around their area.
Although almost everyone in the club had learned this soundproof barrier magic, and using it basically announced what they were doing, it didn't really matter. As long as they weren't seen directly, it was fine.
Every member of the Service Club had a shared sensation device. What kind of situations might occur had long been understood. Anyone who truly couldn't accept it wouldn't still be in the club.
They knew Ichinose Honami had connections with multiple groups. No one was restricted in what they did. Kita Ikuyo could attend rock parties with Kessoku Band and also play gyaru bullying games here.
"Don't... stop... I, I..."
Kita Ikuyo wanted to struggle, but once the shared sensation activated, she could only cover her small mouth tightly, her petite body curling up on the sofa, eyes fixed on the big screen, feeling as if every movement was happening to her.
Weren't they supposed to be "educating" Nogami Izumi and the others?
Why did it feel like she was the one being educated
Ah... why did Shion, who looked so pure, feel this intense after just a few hits.
In less than ten seconds, tears welled up in Kita Ikuyo's eyes, on the verge of spilling over. But before they could soak the sofa, she noticed Hitori Gotou on the next couch staring at her.
Their eyes met. A flicker of hope rose in Kita Ikuyo's heart. She shakily reached out her hand, hoping Gotou Hitori would save her, or at least tell Ijichi Nijika and the others. Even if it was embarrassing to be discovered, at least she wouldn't have to endure this anymore.
However, the moment Gotou Hitori saw her reaching hand, she shrank back like a startled animal.
That act of avoidance, of seeing but not helping, made Kita Ikuyo freeze. The hope that had just risen shattered instantly.
'Bocchi-chan?'
'Bocchi-chan!'
'Help me!'

At the very center of the large living room, in the best viewing position, the blonde elf princess Iris looked around, from Komachi and Shion's group to several demi-human groups nearby. She slowly withdrew her gaze and smiled at Lala beside her.
"Lala, how many do you think the club president can successfully challenge tonight? Isn't the number a bit too much?"
Because so many new members had joined the Service Club, they adopted this method tonight to help newcomers integrate quickly. Although most were willing, when you counted carefully, there were still too many people.
But the more newcomers there were, the easier it was to blend in and confuse the president so he couldn't tell who was who. Otherwise, no matter how they disguised themselves, he'd easily see through it.
Well... even though he'd probably like it, a surprise is only a surprise if you don't know.
"He should... be able to succeed... We might not win, but Hachiman won't lose."
Lala stared intently at Hachiman, who was continuously punishing Asai Saki and Sakurase Shino, not stopping at all as he developed Hayasaka Ai's magical girl potential. Her long, smooth legs were crossed on the sofa, tightly clamping the cushion in her arms.
There really were a lot of them. So many that Hachiman had no rest at all. But every time she felt his body might have reached its limit after a long stretch, she would notice waves of dense life energy surging out from within him.
In the past two days, she could no longer sense his limit. With so many people at once, plus those succubus demi-humans draining his life energy, there might be a chance he couldn't recover.
But time was also a serious issue.
Although they couldn't resist him at all anymore, even just a few kisses from him made her feel like she could barely cling to him, her body craving his energy desperately, their own physical strength was also very strong. With so many people taking turns, the time others covered was enough for them to recover.
"Lala, you really are obsessed with the president. But it's not our turn yet. Let the others play with him a bit longer."
Seeing Lala's gaze completely locked onto Hachiman, looking almost as if she could feel everything without even using a shared sensation bracelet, Iris laughed softly and waved Leticia over.
"Leticia, go inform Lady Lumaria. Tell the others to get ready. Those who haven't made up their minds should decide immediately. The Barrier of Desire is about to be cleared by the president."
"Yes, understood, Princess Iris."
The elf elder-sister Leticia hesitated, nodded, her cheeks slightly flushed as she stepped away on her long legs.
'Lady Lumaria... that is my mother...'
Even though she had been picked up and raised by her mother under the elf mother tree, her mother's reproductive period should have long passed. Why would her mother also participate in this so-called playful assistance service game?
Iris watched Leticia's tall, full figure leave, narrowing her eyes slightly, not bothering to explain to someone like Leticia, who preferred staying deep in the forest making potions.
The president was no longer just assisting them with pregnancy. He had become the true savior of the elves. If he wished, even high elves revered as reincarnated goddesses could be assisted.
With his ability, even one or two "assists" would greatly boost the recipient's strength. The stronger they became, the more they liked him, and the greater the increase.
This couldn't be hidden. These weren't powerless newborns, but powerful figures already under attention. Other factions would soon notice, but no one could take him away.
All the stage props for tonight's game theme were ready. All functions had been tested. Now they just needed to enter, take positions, and wait for the president to clear the stage and move on to the upgraded Barrier of Desire level.
Even with many newcomers, everything was still under control. They already held the advantage. No matter how much others pleased him, he still liked them the most.
Even Kaede, who used to get the most jealous, had stopped being jealous and instead helped bring in newcomers to make him happy. Didn't that say it all?
In the future, princesses, knights, and shrine maidens who learned of his abilities would also come to serve him. Maybe even the proud dark elf queen would kneel before him.
Starting from the elf race, then to human kingdoms, all races, all nations, every beautiful woman serving him alone.
Thinking that their elf savior might achieve world peace in such a way, where future "wars" between races would only happen in bed, Iris glanced at Vignette and Gabriel nearby, who sat uneasily waiting for dawn, her mood extremely pleasant.
Absolute equality and peace didn't exist. But peace could be achieved in another way. This was the elves' pursuit of nature and life. As long as everyone served the same person, great harmony between races could be achieved. World peace!

[Barrier of Desire Game Stage]
"Gulp..."
"Master, which three criminals who prayed most devoutly will you forgive?"
Hayasaka Ai, who wanted to become a magical puff, watched as Hachiman finished punishing the last criminal, Kamijo Maki. Only then did she use the cleaning and calming magic she had just learned, slowly grabbing his thigh and climbing up, speaking softly and respectfully.
The "criminal" Kamijo Maki's pink lips were slightly parted, her eyes half-open unconsciously, as if she had lost awareness under interrogation, making soft bubbling sounds without speaking.
Actually, Kitagawa Marin, Sakurase Shino, Asai Saki, and Shion before her were all about the same. Not one of them hadn't wagged their tails and begged Hachiman for mercy and punishment.
But they had already been developed and awakened into magical girls by him. Their physical strength and recovery speed had greatly improved. It had only been about twenty minutes of "prayer punishment." No matter what, they wouldn't collapse into unconsciousness. They were already gradually regaining clarity.
"Let's go with Marin, Shino, and Shion. As for Saki and Maki, you'll have to wait a bit longer."
Hachiman patted Kamijo Maki's round, firm hips, speaking while turning to Hayasaka Ai, who had also progressed quickly, raising his hand to gently stroke her head.
Hayasaka Ai, whose side ponytail had already turned into long loose hair, said nothing, simply lowering her head slightly, making it easier for him to control her.
She had already felt the power flowing through her body. She understood that the so-called magical girl awakening ritual hadn't deceived them. It really required Hachiman to infuse energy to awaken their magical potential.
It was just that her talent in this area didn't seem very strong. Even without a shared sensation bracelet and without syncing with more sensitive girls, she couldn't last half an hour.
After finishing with Sakurase Shino and Kitagawa Marin, Hachiman focused on developing her magical girl potential, then quickly continued punishing Shion and the others, as if doing so caused him no trouble at all, merely costing a bit of time.
Such strength. Such ability... If he removed all limits, how fast would magical girl awakenings proceed?
No wonder so many major families and conglomerates sent their heirs here. Even if they didn't know the specifics, they must have roughly analyzed how powerful Hachiman was.
He was so powerful that all the schemes within the Shinomiya family had become meaningless. Only Kaguya, as an illegitimate daughter, could represent the family in contacting him.
Crack!
As Hachiman finished speaking, while Hayasaka Ai was still thinking about how to offer her loyalty, the seemingly sturdy Barrier of Desire began to crack and collapse.
Shion, Sakurase Shino, and Kitagawa Marin, who had been imprisoned in the walls, were freed one after another.
Kamijo Maki and Asai Saki remained trapped, but now each was confined within a thin wall, with space in between that could be walked through.
"By the way, are Maki and Saki going to stay locked up like this for a while?"
Hachiman released Hayasaka Ai, walked around the wall, and stood in front of Kamijo Maki and Asai Saki, looking at their flushed faces.
Even though they were perverted masochists, he didn't usually play this kind of game. Was he really supposed to just leave them there?
"Yes. Master, in front of them, you will complete the final stage-clearing ritual with the three criminals you have forgiven. After that, we can challenge the upgraded Barrier of Desire."
Hayasaka Ai quickly stepped to his side and bowed slightly as she explained.
"Still have to do a stage-clearing ritual..."
Hearing her words, and knowing what these late-night activities usually involved, Hachiman naturally understood what the so-called ritual meant, though he still felt somewhat speechless.
