Chapter 82 - Spring Vacation (3)
"Are you sure you don't want to talk to her, Leon?" Titania asked, looking at me just as I decided it was time for us to leave.
"I don't really think it's necessary," I replied casually.
"Is that so?" Titania tilted her head, her eyes narrowing slightly as if to gauge my sincerity.
Honestly, I didn't think it was. As far as I was concerned, the only thing connecting me to Zeruel right now was her mother being admitted to Leonamon. I was helping with her condition, sure, but that was it. That was the only tie Zeruel had to me. Of course, it wouldn't hurt if that connection grew into something more, but for now, I wasn't exactly holding my breath.
"I do," I said firmly.
"Well," Titania smirked slightly, "I wouldn't mind if you added her to your harem. Zeruel's a good girl—attentive, focused, and putting every ounce of effort into keeping her spot in the Gold Class. Honestly, I admire her dedication."
Titania wasn't wrong. Zeruel probably had the potential to graduate at the top spot in the Gold Class, and it wouldn't surprise me at all if that happened.
Anyway...
Now that the signing-up process was done, we were relieved it hadn't taken as long as we feared. We'd expected to be stuck there until twilight, but it only ended up taking three hours. Still a lot of waiting, but at least we had time left to enjoy ourselves.
And enjoy ourselves we did.
The girls seemed to have a great time, their laughter and chatter filling the air as they let go of the stress from the academy. With spring vacation here, it made sense for them to relax and recharge. Seeing them so happy, I couldn't help but smile too.

By the time we wrapped up, it was late at night. We'd gotten so caught up in the fun that we lost track of time.
I accompanied them back to the academy. When we arrived at the Gold Dorm, the place was silent as expected. Most of the Gold Class students had likely gone home for the break, leaving the dorm empty.
"I think I'm the only person left in the Gold Dormitory right now," Titania said with a small laugh. "Even the dorm mother is out."
"Exactly why I'll be sleeping here for the entire spring vacation," Trill chimed in, her tail swishing lazily behind her.
So, they basically had the whole dorm to themselves. Not bad. The Gold Dormitory was way more spacious than the Silver and Bronze ones, with facilities that made it feel more like a luxurious retreat than a student dorm. They were definitely going to enjoy themselves.
"Oh, right! Leon!" Titania called out just as I was about to say goodbye. She flashed a mischievous grin, one that practically screamed trouble—but the kind of trouble I wasn't about to pass up. "Come inside with us! I have a surprise for you!"
Her grin widened, and I could tell whatever she was planning was something I wouldn't be able to resist. Still, I decided to play along, pretending I had no clue what she was up to.
"Alright," I said with a slight chuckle.
And with that, I followed them inside.
***
When I first visited Princess Myrcella's room, I'd already gotten a glimpse of how extravagant the Gold Dormitory was. Now, standing here again, I couldn't help but think it was unfair—downright cruel, even—how much better this place was compared to the other dormitories.
"Right, Leon?" Trill chimed in as I stood there taking it all in. Like me, Trill was from the Bronze Class, and she shared my background of the modest Bronze Dormitory. "No matter how many times I walk into this place, I still can't believe it's a dormitory. It feels more like a museum! I mean, look—there are statues everywhere, the lobby is as big as ten of the Bronze Class rooms combined, and there's even a fountain in here!"
She wasn't wrong. Just from looking around, it was clear the academy prioritized the Gold Class students. After all, they were the ones most likely to graduate and become the next generation of magic knights. Naturally, the academy lavished them with resources. The Silver and Bronze Classes didn't even come close to this level of privilege.
"I kind of feel like I don't deserve all of this," Titania admitted with a soft laugh. "I think I only got into the Gold Class because of my status."
It wasn't an unreasonable thought. Titania was a princess, after all—a princess from another nation, no less. If she'd been placed in another class, it would have sparked unnecessary drama. But I didn't think her status was the sole reason she was here.
"I don't think that's true," I said, turning to her. "You're talented, Nia. It's only natural you'd be here. Honestly, someone who can wield a sword better than most people doesn't belong anywhere but the Gold Class, don't you think?"
Hearing that, she smiled.
"Thank you, Leon," she said softly.
After a bit more walking, we reached her room. I'd been here before, and while it was slightly smaller than Princess Myrcella's, it was still impressive. The bed was massive, her closet was packed with dresses—both formal and casual—and her academy uniforms were neatly arranged.
"Now then, Leon," Titania said with a mischievous glint in her eye. "Would you mind waiting here for a bit? Trill and I need to get your present ready."
I had no idea what this present might be, but I had a strong feeling it was something I'd like. Well, no point overthinking it. I'd just have to wait and see.
So, I stayed outside the room, leaning against the wall. Just like Titania had said, the dormitory was completely empty. Even the dorm mother was absent. While I waited, I took a closer look around. The place was full of intriguing details, like the portraits and plaques honoring the school's founders. Apparently, this dormitory had been standing for over 100 years. It used to be a king's residence before it was converted into a dormitory for the academy's cadets.
The dormitory could house up to 500 people, which was impressive. Even with the 400 Gold Class students spanning from first to fourth year, there was still room for another hundred. The sheer scale and history of the place were remarkable, but what struck me most was how completely different it felt compared to where I stayed.
"Well, now I understand why so many people want to get into this class," I muttered to myself, glancing around the lavish surroundings. "You could live the high life here for four years, and honestly? It'd be worth it."
Of course, not everyone was drawn to the Gold Class just for the luxury. Some people genuinely wanted to become magic knights—people like Zeruel. Others aimed to climb the ranks for the prestige and opportunities it brought, like Hereon and Shredica. Shredica, though, managed to skip many of the hurdles entirely by securing a recommendation and landing a spot in the magic knight ranks. Honestly, it was pretty incredible.
After waiting for a while, I heard a voice from inside the room.
"Leon, it's fine now. You can come in."
They'd taken about twenty minutes to get ready, which felt like forever and made me even more curious about what they had planned. Excited, I opened the door—and what I saw made my breath catch.
"Leon~"
Titania and Trill were lounging on the bed, clad in nothing but lingerie. The sight was enough to make any grown man weak in the knees. Two stunning girls, lying there in their underwear, looking at me like that... My pants tightened immediately, my body reacting before my mind could fully process the scene.
"Do you like your surprise?" Titania asked, her voice playful.
She was wearing a sultry set of red lingerie paired with matching red stockings adorned with delicate floral rose patterns. The contrast of the bold red against her fair skin was mesmerizing.
Trill, on the other hand, was dressed in black lingerie, the intricate designs mirroring Titania's. The dark fabric clung to her slender frame, accentuating her curves in all the right ways.
"Trill said she wants to lose her virginity now so you can enjoy her more when her heat comes, Leon," Titania added with a sly smile.
I knew Trill's heat would arrive in winter. I'd told her I could wait, but it seemed she wanted to take this step sooner.
"P-Please, take care of me, Leon," Trill stammered, her cheeks flushed a deep crimson.
My heart pounded in my chest. Was I really about to have a threesome with these two gorgeous girls? It wasn't as though the idea was new to me—I'd already experienced a threesome with Irene and Gabrielle. But this felt different. Unlike the competition that marked that encounter, this was softer, more intimate.
"Are you just going to stand there, Leon? Or are we going to start?" Titania teased, her lips curling into a mischievous grin.
Her words snapped me out of my daze. I stepped into the room, closing and locking the door behind me. The Gold Dormitory was completely empty tonight, which meant there was nothing stopping me from savoring this moment to its fullest.
