I Became The Academy Necromancer
Chapter 345: Side Story - There’s No Way That Could Happen

Erica was sitting with her legs crossed and her arms folded on the opposite sofa.

She was wearing a hotel bathrobe as she didn’t have anything else to change into, but unlike Deia, she was meticulous.

Her neat appearance clearly reflected her cold emotions.

Deia had gone into the bathroom.

She had quickly packed her things, saying she was going to change, but she hadn’t come out till now. It seemed like she was struggling to compose herself after that embarrassing episode.

“Huff.”

With a short sigh, Erica uncrossed her arms, picked up her wine glass, and held it out to me. When she silently requested me to refill her glass, I complied without much reaction.

Though she seemed calm from a mere glance, her drinking pace was surprisingly fast.

Perhaps it was because she found it delicious, but the slight twitching around her eyes suggested otherwise.

She quickly emptied her glass in one go as if she were drinking soju, then gave me a deep look before offering her glass again.

“Don’t drink so quickly.”

“Pour it.”

Her voice was a strange mix of whining and grumbling, and I had no choice but to fill her glass.

Without making any noise, Erica silently emptied her glass again.

“Puff.”

This time, she let out a peculiar sigh and extended her glass toward me once more.

I knew Erica wasn’t very good with alcohol, but she drank so quickly that her cheeks were slightly flushed, and her hand holding the glass wobbled slightly.

“Erica.”

“Hurry.”

She was slurring on her words, indicating that she was probably starting to get drunk, but she was stubborn and wouldn’t let go of the glass.

“Last onee.”

She let out a small snort, and her voice rose a little, likely because the alcohol had begun to loosen her up.

Looking at her bathrobe, which had been tightly secured before, it was now slightly loosened.

“This is the last one.”

With a sigh, I refilled her glass again, and she drank it in the same manner as before. I had witnessed this scene three times in a row, but her reactions kept changing.

Even though the alcohol wasn’t very strong, Erica got drunk quickly, gazing at me with a dazed expression before asking.

“About Deia… are you looking at her in that way?”

It seemed she had gotten drunk quickly in order to gather the courage to ask this.

“That’s impossible.”

She was my little sister. Although we were not blood-related and we didn’t grow up together, I was still her second older brother.

I had never looked at Deia that way.

“Reallyyyy?”

“Yeah, so don’t jump to any misunderstandings, and just go to sleep. I think it would be best if you sleep here with Deia tonight.”

“What about youuuu?”

“I’ll have to go back.”

Thinking about it, I realized I hadn’t informed the others that I would be staying over.

After adjusting my artificial body, I naturally ended up here, swept along by Deia and Erica’s actions, leaving me no opportunity to contact anyone.

Erica pouted and walked toward me, sitting down beside me.

She placed her hand on my thigh, then leaned her body into mine, preventing me from leaving.

“Let’s sleep here togetherrrr.”

“But this is Deia’s room.”

“Didn’t you say you two are siblingss?”

I thought that both Findenai and Erica shouldn’t be allowed to drink. If they showed this kind of behavior to others, it would be a big problem.

Especially since Erica could become the next archmage, she would hold an important status.

Now that I think about it…

Suddenly, I remembered what Erica had said about Stella earlier.

Realizing how mentally strained I was, Erica muttered that she should have ignored Stella’s advice.

“Earlier.”

“Hmm?”

Did Erica fall asleep while leaning on my shoulder? She made a snorting sound as she woke up.

I almost told her to go back to sleep, but I felt like I might not get another chance if I didn’t ask now.

“What was it that you regretted following Stella’s advice about?”

Erica tilted her head and smiled slyly, rubbing her cheek against my shoulder.

“Are you curious?”

“…”

I wasn’t curious anymore.

Just as I was about to say that, Erica lifted her hand from my thigh and lightly tapped her lips.

“If you do it, I’ll tell youu.”

“So you’ll betray Stella for that?”

“Hurrryyy…”

I wondered what kind of reaction she’d show tomorrow if she realized what she was doing now.

Unlike usual, Erica became quite bold after having a little alcohol.

I cautiously turned only my head and kissed her lips. The sweet smell of alcohol and her lemon scent filled the air.

“Hehe.”

We didn’t even entwine our tongues, just a quick peck, yet Erica twisted her body and came closer, seemingly pleased.

“The Saingtess said that we should—?”

Then, Erica revealed something rather shocking.

She explained that Stella had intentionally told her and Findenai to act jealous in order to apply psychological pressure on me.

The idea was to make me feel the strain of choosing between them.

If the pressure continued and I couldn’t choose anyone, I would naturally move on to the next step and accept all of them.

“What is this…?”

It seemed like an absurd plan.

I wasn’t sure if it was really Stella’s plan, but it showed how desperate she was.

I need to think this through.

I wouldn’t just let Stella off the hook, but at the same time, it meant that even the former Saintess had been pushed to such extremes.

I felt somewhat sorry but also a little annoyed.

Especially when I remembered how anxious I had become due to Stella’s scheme that I even seriously considered attaching a male-genital-shaped tool to my artificial body today.

“Zzzz.”

Then, the tattletale somehow fell into deep sleep.

I gently pushed her messy blonde hair aside.

I wondered if Deia was still in the bathroom, but just then, the bathroom door swung open forcefully.

“I’m going to go n—”

Just as I was about to carefully shift Erica and lay her down next to her.

Deia, who had said she’d change into pajamas, was still wearing the bathrobe.

The important thing was that she had undone her belt, leaving what was inside completely exposed.

At least she wasn’t completely naked this time—she was wearing a black lingerie, which covered most of her.

“You… you…!”

I hastily turned my head away.

Deia seemed either angry or embarrassed, but her face turned bright red as she strode over and sat down beside me.

“Hmm.”

On the left, Erica clung to me tightly, holding onto my arm as if she didn’t want to be separated from me.

“What are you looking at?”

On the right, Deia, with an annoyed tone, had both her legs draped over my thighs, looking like she was angry about something.

I found myself completely surrounded in this situation.

Even if I tried to say something, I ended up biting my lip because Deia’s stretched-out, fair, bare legs were right in front of me.

“Behave yourself.”

I said, sounding irritated, but Deia just snorted and responded.

“Why? I’m just trying to be comfortable in my room. You’re not having lustful thoughts about your little sister, are you?”

She provocatively raised and lowered her legs, tapping my thighs playfully.

Frowning deeply, I responded firmly.

“That’s never going to happen.”

“Hmph.”

With a sharp snort, Deia grabbed the bottle of wine next to her and took a big gulp before glaring at me.

“Is that so? Is that really what you’re saying?”

Saying this, she slowly started moving closer to me.

***

A slight rewind. Deia, embarrassed after showing her naked body to Kim Shinwoo, had run into the bathroom.

For the first time, Deia felt fear upon hearing Erica’s cold voice. She pressed her warm cheeks with her palm and stared at herself in the bathroom mirror.

“I’m crazy… I must have been crazy.”

At first, she was a little annoyed.

She thought it wouldn’t hurt for him to say something nice since she was going to meet someone for an arranged match.

But later, she got a bit excited when it turned into a playful game of hitting, which somehow led to this situation.

“Ah, shit… What should I do?”

She was just excited to meet him after a long time.

She hadn’t been in control of her emotions.

Did it show?

It must’ve shown, right?

That she hadn’t yet given up.

She had toldo Darius and Kim Shinwoo that she had completely let go of her feelings.

She pretended to be irritated and refused to talk about it any further, claiming it was a part of her dark past. She came to this place and went on the arranged match to gain their trust and prove that what she said was true.

Actually, the reason she arranged the match in Loberne was because Professor Fel Petra was staying at Loberne Academy.

She wanted to know more about the artificial body that Kim Shinwoo was using.

Luckily, she managed to keep that secret from being discovered.

“Ah, what should I do… What should I do?”

Her flushed face wouldn’t return to normal.

For now, she changed out of her bathrobe and into the pajamas she had brought. Normally, she wouldn’t wear underwear underneath, but she put on lingerie to firmly show that she had no ulterior motives and wasn’t interested in Kim Shinwoo anymore.

She carefully buttoned up her black pajamas all the way to the top, intending to show that she was decent and no longer had feelings for Kim Shinwoo. Just as she was about to open the bathroom door and step out…

“About Deia… are you looking at her in that way?”

Erica’s voice, already tipsy from alcohol, reached Deia’s ears.

“That’s impossible.”

Deia also heard Kim Shinwoo’s calm response, which sounded too indifferent.

Crack.

At that moment, Deia’s grip on the bathroom doorknob tightened.

It felt quite frustrating that he could answer without hesitation or a hint of emotion even after seeing her naked body… no, it felt like shit.

I’m going to hold it in. Calm down, you crazy bitch.

Deia forcibly suppressed the anger that was bubbling up inside her. After all, wasn’t she someone who always tried to act rationally?

She couldn’t let herself be shaken here.

After a deep breath, Deia finally began to calm herself.

Just as she was about to step out of the bathroom again carefully…

“…!?”

What came to her view was Kim Shinwoo kissing Erica, who was acting all cute and clinging to him.

It was brief yet intense—a sight she could hardly believe.

“Hehe.”

Upon hearing Erica’s joyful chuckle, Deia’s rationality flew out the window.

Deia immediately entered the bathroom again and calmly and orderly began unbuttoning her pajamas.

Her hands were quick and precise; her emotions were boiling like a volcano.

Huff.

That could happen.

Right.

Of course, that could happen.

That’s right.

After all, they were siblings.

That’s right, we’re siblings.

There was only one crazy person who felt a desire for their sister’s naked body in the world.

And Ms. Erica was his fiancée.

Strictly speaking, she was his ex-fiancée, though.

It’s not weird.

It was only natural for them to kiss.

His relationships with women are a bit complicated.

He has no right to say anything about Deus.

Well, that could happen.

At least it was not as blatant as a certain person.

Yeah, yeah.

After seeing her own naked body…

I should understand.

He kissed someone else?

I know that could happ—

Thud thud thud.

Deia, who was only in her lingerie after taking off her pajamas, took a deep breath and threw the robe onto the floor.

“Shit, there’s no way that could happen, you bastard of a brother.”

Just because I am your sister, you don’t feel desire?

Fine.

Try holding it in.
