Making the losers of the game watch the winners enjoy themselves, what kind of cruel, heart-piercing thing was that?
If he failed to clear the next game stage, did that mean Asai Saki and the others would have to keep the shared sensation running all night without actually being able to join the game?
However, seeing Kitagawa Marin, Sakurase Shino, and Shion all silent, their eyes fixed straight on him as if waiting for his command, Hachiman didn't say anything and simply beckoned them over.
"Master..."
Kamijo Maki watched eagerly as Kitagawa Marin, Sakurase Shino, and Shion enjoyed themselves to the fullest, wondering what she lacked compared to them.
Asai Saki also stared straight at Hachiman.
Both of them were the same kind of pure-love obsessives. There wasn't much difference between them. At most, Kamijo Maki was a rich young lady from a wealthy family, while Asai Saki was a disciplinary committee member with a more pure and serious outward image.
But when they first got involved with Hachiman, it was purely for the thrill. They were different from those who approached him for benefits or power.
What they wanted was more affection, not more suffering.
Others got to eat while they didn't, and they could only watch and drool, this kind of game was way too much.
Even though they had just eaten earlier, and this game was something they had agreed to play, being imprisoned in the wall, watched by everyone, and punished harshly by their master.
"Master, are you not satisfied with my younger sister Yuki? I think she's quite cute and very obedient, but it seems like you didn't 'eat' her."
After being left aside for a while, Kamijo Maki swallowed hard and couldn't help but ask about her younger sister Kamijo Yuki while Hachiman was rewarding Shion.
Originally, she thought bringing her cute little sister along, the two of them together, would let the master reward her properly.
Who would have thought that her sister Yuki's first appearance in front of the master would only be sitting on the coffee table with Kanzaki Moe and Fueguchi Hinami, putting on a little performance for atmosphere, without even getting a kiss from him.
'So embarrassing! So embarrassing! When I first met the master, I went straight onto his bed.'
"It's not that I'm dissatisfied. I just want to eat her later. I'm thinking about whether to eat Yuki together with you, or put her together with Moe and Hinami."
Hachiman toyed with the maid ribbon on Shion's head, then released it and pulled Kitagawa Marin and Sakurase Shino into his arms, smiling at Kamijo Maki.
Since Maki had already brought her sister right to his doorstep, how could he possibly let Yuki leave?
Although Maki and Yuki weren't twins, it was still rare to have a pair of sisters who were both obsessive and perverted like them.
It was just that at the time, he had to deal with Kirishima Touka and Yoshimura Eto. If he added Yuki as well, there wouldn't be enough time, and it wouldn't be as enjoyable.
After all, once he ate Yuki, then Moe and Hinami would have to be included too. He couldn't play favorites.
"As long as you like her, Master."
Hearing his answer, Kamijo Maki, still stuck in the wall, immediately revealed a bright, alluring smile, her eyes misty, blinking as if imagining something bold and exciting.
If the master didn't like Yuki, that would be troublesome. Fortunately, he did.
Then she could go all out helping the master deal with the young ladies at Excellent Academy.
There were more and more people here at Sobu High. She definitely couldn't compete for his favor here, but if she could bring him to Excellent Private Girls' Academy, she was confident she could turn that entire academy into a service academy exclusively for him.
"Master, I have a younger sister too. Her name is Asai Shiki. She's serious but easily influenced, a bit introverted, but also somewhat secretly bold. If you like, I can also—"
Seeing Kamijo Maki successfully offering her sister, Asai Saki quickly spoke up to recommend her own.
As if she didn't have a sister, of course she did.
"Master, I have more too! There are lots of beautiful girls at Excellent Academy! A girls' school full of rich young ladies has so many pure and cute girls!"
Kamijo Maki shot a glance at the overly eager Asai Saki and immediately interrupted, stopping her from doing the same thing.
"Alright, stop it. Don't make a fuss. Just rest properly. You don't need to use the shared sensation collar for now. Turn it on again after I leave. I don't know how long the next stage will take."
Hachiman looked somewhat helplessly at the suddenly bickering Asai Saki and Kamijo Maki. These two didn't seem very reliable either.
Of course he knew their situation. It was one thing for them to offer their own sisters, but they couldn't just grab any random beautiful girl and send her to his bed.
If it really came to that, not to mention Iris's elf clan, even any large family or conglomerate could throw money and produce countless beautiful girls.
But if it turned into that, he would just become a tool for awakening magical girl talents.
He would decide himself who to awaken and who to strengthen. He couldn't let others control that.
As his words fell, Asai Saki and Kamijo Maki obediently fell silent. However, their cheeks grew even redder, their eyes fixed on Shion, Sakurase Shino, and Kitagawa Marin competing for rewards in front of him, as if imagining themselves in their place.
Feeling their burning gazes, Shion, Kitagawa Marin, and Sakurase Shino unconsciously sped up. Especially Sakurase Shino, her small, delicate nose caught that intoxicating scent, and she sank deeper into the fullness of her reward.
Unlike Shion, who looked pure but was actually very scheming, or Kitagawa Marin, who was fashionable and lively, Sakurase Shino was quiet and reserved. She wasn't proactive and didn't belong to any particular group, at most occasionally hanging out with Hayase Saki and the others.
However, as a silent, timid succubus, Sakurase Shino had an extremely gentle personality. Whenever something happened, she would blame herself first, thinking it might be her fault.
But it was precisely this gentle and adorable nature that made Hachiman feel the urge to tease her.
Seeing Hachiman pull Sakurase Shino's hands behind her back and make her face Asai Saki, Shion's eyes rolled, and she immediately started helping him from another angle.
No matter their appearance or personality, any of the five "criminals" willing to participate in this live late-night service game were far from normal.
Probably Kitagawa Marin was the most "normal" among them, but the way she was now completely enjoying being treated as a slave and an obsessive meant she wasn't all that normal either.
In the Service Club, Kitagawa Marin could fully cosplay as a slave girl, letting her master Hachiman handle her however he wished. Even if others saw, she didn't have to worry about embarrassment after removing the costume.
Because the outfits people usually wore in the Service Club were even bolder than many of her cosplay costumes.
Everyone played big. At most, she was just a little bolder. Compared to Asai Saki and the others, her level didn't even count as much.
Next time… next time, should she bring other models or cosplayers she knew to join the cosplay?
A lot of games and doujin plots were like that, right? Being dragged down by good friends and falling together into that kind of ending.
She could even invite the Juju-sama she admired to come to the Service Club and cosplay together, take some private photos of serving the master. That would perfectly recreate those story scenes.
Even though those photos could never be shared publicly and would only be seen within the Service Club, there were still plenty of people there. That many viewers was enough.
Ordinary cosplay couldn't reach her level. At most, they could take normal photos. They couldn't go this deep into the role.
A service-themed convention held inside the Service Club? Perfect, there were many newcomers who hadn't officially joined yet. They could act as the convention audience.
Not only could it be an extremely bold service convention, they could even play out time-stop plots and hidden scenarios.
Thinking about recreating game scenes in real life, Kitagawa Marin trembled with excitement, already wanting to go ask Yumiko for her opinion.
Looking up at the person her best friend liked, her master, Hachiman, Kitagawa Marin felt the impact again and again, swallowing hard, her eyes misty, her face full of intoxication, as if she too had been tamed just like Sakurase Shino and the others.
She'd ask Yumiko and Nijika later, see if they had any characters they liked.
Even if Yumiko and Nijika didn't know much about this, it didn't matter. She had already arranged to go to a convention with Princess Lumaria this weekend. They could gather reference material there, and after that, they could come back and hold their own service convention.
Yumiko, Nijika, and she herself were all magical girls now. If they found suitable characters, they could use magical girl transformations to perfectly cosplay together.
While Kitagawa Marin and the others were still acting as the sinful slave prisoners under Hachiman's radiance, the participants for the next upgraded Barrier of Desire stage had already begun arriving at the game site.
The walls looked no different, except now there were five additional openings. This Barrier of Desire could accommodate ten participants.
Compared to the previous one, this upgraded version not only held more people but could also move and adjust.
It could be a single barrier, or split into left and right, or even form four sides, front, back, left, and right, surrounding Hachiman in the middle.
But the biggest difference was that above each position on the walls, there were now display screens showing what was happening on the other side.
Because this stage wasn't like before, where everyone was experienced and familiar to him.
Among the ten "criminals" to be punished this time, there were not only experienced veterans but also complete newcomers. Some of them had never even met Hachiman before. So extra rules had to be added, otherwise he wouldn't be able to tell who was who.
After all, many factions had joined, each able to send people, even bringing allies. Without hints, the range was too wide.
However, this time everyone wore shared sensation devices, bracelets, collars, leg bands, and so on. The images on the screens didn't necessarily show the person currently being punished. Adding screens could even mislead him.
So even with the screens, guessing everyone correctly was still difficult.
"Everyone pick a position. As long as the Savior can't see your face, you can use whatever posture you want."
The elf elder-sister Leticia arrived at the scene. Seeing everyone looking at each other hesitantly, she immediately understood they were still a bit shy and spoke with a smile.
"If anyone wants to withdraw now, it's still fine. But after five minutes, it won't be allowed. The Savior is almost done over there, and we need time to switch."
"If you don't want to leave, get ready quickly."
Tonight's activity was mainly for fun and to help the newcomers integrate, not to make things difficult for the Savior. Princess Iris hadn't set strict rules.
As long as everyone enjoyed themselves, that was enough. Focusing too much on guessing correctly would miss the point.
Just like their blindfold games, sometimes it wasn't that they couldn't guess, but even if they could, they would pretend not to know and keep playing.
Once morning came, when it was time for breakfast and school, everyone would return to normal and stop obsessing over the night, until the next late night when the games resumed.
"Time's about up."
With Leticia's reminder, they exchanged glances. The experienced ones stepped forward, while the newcomers followed, imitating their postures.
Some simply bent forward like before, supporting themselves on the other side. It wasn't too tiring.
Some knelt and stayed still as the barrier extended and closed, stopping just before touching them. Compared to standing, this posture exposed more of their smooth backs and delicate feet.
Others faced forward while kneeling. As the barrier closed, an additional opening appeared, revealing their mouths but not their faces.
The Barrier of Desire didn't restrict posture. Any bold idea could be tried.
However, just as a mature elf woman in a high-slit white gauze dress, with a slender waist tied by a thin ribbon, full figure, snow-white skin, and pointed ears turned to join, Leticia suddenly reached out and stopped her.
"Um... Mother, are you really going to participate? It's still possible to switch. Princess Nina or Mage Saffi could take your place. Didn't other elves come with us this time?"
Leticia spoke hesitantly, trying to persuade her.
Yes, this elf woman, who didn't look much older than her, was her mother, Lady Lumaria.
Elves had long lifespans, and with wars between races occurring every few hundred years, natural aging was rare. They were either children, youthful maidens, or mature women.
Although her mother had adopted her after reaching adulthood and many years had passed, by human standards they only looked a few years apart, like sisters.
"Leticia, don't you want me to receive the Savior's assistance and give birth to a high elf for our race?"
Lumaria turned, looking at her calmly, smiling slightly.
With the same gentle temperament, Lumaria appeared even more composed and noble than her daughter.
"N-no... I just think you're not in your reproductive period. It might be better for Princess Nina or Saffi to do it."
Leticia shook her head. As a home-loving elf, her views differed from humans. She had no objection to her mother finding a partner, as long as she liked him.
Though "partner" might not be the right word. The Savior's status was too high. Only Princess Iris could truly claim that position.
But since her mother couldn't conceive outside her reproductive period, receiving assistance might be wasteful.
The elves hadn't produced high elves for a long time. With the spring drying up and the mother tree weakening, they urgently needed a solution.
Now that they had found their Savior, they couldn't afford to waste his energy.
Although her mother was strong and would grow stronger after assistance, Princess Nina and Mage Saffi were also powerful and would benefit even more.
"Hehe! Don't worry. Even if I'm not in my reproductive period, Princess Iris said I can still receive assistance to strengthen myself."
Lumaria smiled warmly, explaining patiently.
"Though Nina and the others would be ideal, her former hero companion died in human conflicts. Since she was brought here, she can't avenge them, so she's not in the right state."
"As for Saffi... since she and others appear often in public, their rapid growth might attract attention. Also, a demon king may have fled to this world, so human knights and saints have come as well."
"One of Saffi's companions is a princess of a human kingdom, so she's staying with them to gather intelligence. She can't stay here all night."
Even in decline, elves remained powerful. Some stayed hidden in forests, others protected their lands, while some, like Saffi, ventured out, forming parties or rescuing enslaved elves.
Princess Nina had once been such an adventurer.
But demon kings came and went. Even when one fell, another would rise.
With dwindling numbers, elves no longer actively fought demon kings, focusing instead on survival and reproduction.
Still, with heroes now appearing in this world, it was hard to say whether human forces were truly chasing the demon king, or seeking the elves' Savior.
"I see..."
After hearing the explanation, Leticia nodded thoughtfully.
