The staff room smelled of old coffee, chalk dust, and tension.

Every head turned the moment I walked in. Teachers who normally wouldn't glance twice at me suddenly froze mid-sentence, eyes following me like I was dragging a corpse behind me.

The Vice Principal didn't say a word. He just gestured to the empty chair in the center of the room, the kind of spot you put someone when you wanted them surrounded.

I sat. Calm. Straight-backed.

Military habit, never give the enemy the satisfaction of seeing you flinch.

Around me, voices picked up again in low tones, like I wasn't even there.

"Isn't he the one from yesterday?"

"The cafeteria scene… unbelievable."

"Shoku-sensei's class, wasn't it? Figures."

"Still, for Hoshino-sensei to… hug him like that in public…"

I could practically hear the unspoken words: scandal, disgrace, troublemaker.

And yet, not all eyes carried disdain. Some lingered too long. Some flicked away quickly when I caught them staring. Desire and judgment danced in equal measure.

"Silence."

The Vice Principal's voice cut the room clean in half. He adjusted his glasses, the light flashing across the lenses.

"Sakamoto Renji. Do you understand why you've been called here?"

I let a beat pass before answering. My lips twitched into the kind of smirk that always pissed off brass officers back in the day.

"Rumors?"

A ripple went through the room, some gasps, a cough, a disapproving scoff.

The Vice Principal's eyes narrowed.

"Exactly. Your name has been at the center of… disturbing reports. We will not allow misconduct to poison this institution's reputation. Not from staff, and certainly not from students."

His words were sharp. But as I scanned the room, my gaze caught on four faces, Rika, Reina, Mayumi, Saki.

Each tried to wear their professional mask.

Rika's knuckles were white against her desk, like she was holding back from speaking.

Reina's lips curved in that faint, unreadable smile, her eyes flicking toward me with something softer.

Mayumi's jaw was clenched, her arms folded tight across her chest, but her blush betrayed her.

Saki… she just stared, calm and mysterious, like she was enjoying every second of this circus.

Yeah. This wasn't just a hearing. This was a battlefield.

And I was the only one smiling.

---

The Vice Principal leaned forward, fingers steepled, eyes cold.

"You think this is amusing, Sakamoto?"

I met his gaze without blinking. "If I did, I'd be laughing."

A ripple of unease moved through the room again. Some of the younger teachers glanced at each other like they couldn't decide if I was brave or suicidal.

"Let's not waste time," the Vice Principal continued. "You've been seen… too close with several staff members. Shoku-sensei, Hakari-sensei, Takahara-sensei… and now Hoshino-sensei. Do you deny these… allegations?"

The word allegations hung in the air like a guillotine.

Rika's lips parted, but she stopped herself, biting down on her words. She was seconds away from stepping in, I could see it.

Reina crossed her legs slowly, deliberate, the whisper of fabric pulling some eyes away from me. But her expression stayed unreadable, that cool, knowing nurse's mask.

Mayumi shifted in her seat, her blush spreading higher, betraying everything she wanted to hide.

And Saki?

She just smirked. Like she was the one pulling the strings, the ghost whispering rumors into every ear.

I leaned back in the chair, arms draped over the sides like I owned it.

"Deny?" I said, tilting my head. "No. I don't deny anything. Because I don't owe anyone here excuses."

Gasps. Outrage. A chair scraped sharply against the floor.

One older teacher slammed his palm on the table. "This is insolence!"

The Vice Principal raised a hand, silencing him. His eyes locked on me like steel.

"You've been warned before, Sakamoto. You're on thin ice. The reputation of this school—"

"Is already in shambles if all it takes is gossip to shake it?"

I cut him off clean.

The silence after that felt like a trigger had just been pulled.

Even Rika looked stunned. Reina's lips twitched into the faintest smirk. Mayumi's breath hitched audibly. And Saki? Her eyes gleamed, proud, as if I'd just said exactly what she wanted me to.

The Vice Principal's face darkened. He wasn't used to a student talking back, much less winning the room while doing it.

But he had one weapon left.

"Then explain this," he said, sliding a folder across the table. "Statements. From multiple students. Claims of inappropriate relationships between you and certain staff."

He didn't need to say it. The weight in the room doubled.

Everyone was staring.

This was no longer a hearing. It was a witch hunt.

And I was the firewood.

---

The folder landed in front of me with a soft thud.

Thin. Not even twenty sheets. But everyone stared at it like it was a smoking gun.

The Vice Principal's voice was sharp. "Multiple witnesses. Are you going to tell me they all imagined it?"

Before I could answer, the System's voice slid into my head, smooth and electric.

[MILF Harem System Notice]

Emotional Sync detected.

Threat level: Authority Suppression.

Passive unlocked: Dominance Aura (Lv.1).

– Confidence +25%

– Intimidation effect +30% against weak-willed targets.

– Lust Resonance triggered in bonded MILFs.

I exhaled slowly. The air felt lighter in my chest, heavier for everyone else.

I pushed the folder back with one finger. "That's all?"

Murmurs. A few jaws clenched.

"You call this evidence?" I said, my voice calm but cutting. "Anonymous scribbles? Jealous classmates? That's your case?"

The System pulsed again.

[Lust based Dominance Aura Active]

Targets affected: Rika Shoku (loyalty conflicted), Reina Hakari (arousal rising), Mayumi Takahara (shame intensifying), Saki Hoshino (glee + lust resonance).

I leaned forward, elbows on the table, my eyes sweeping over the staff one by one.

"Let's talk reality. Shoku-sensei has been my teacher for years. Hakari-sensei is the nurse everyone depends on. Takahara-sensei sacrifices her time coaching sports. Hoshino-sensei!" my lips curved "—just a new teacher. These women hold this school together. And instead of respect, you think rumors written by kids matter more than their reputations?"

That hit.

Rika blinked fast, caught off guard. Reina shifted, her eyes narrowing in approval. Mayumi's hands clenched on her skirt. And Saki? She bit her lip, like she was watching her personal performance.

The Vice Principal slammed his palm on the desk. "Enough! You dare lecture us—"

"Yes."

The word cracked like a whip.

The whole room froze.

"I dare," I said, my voice deep, steady, and suddenly commanding. "Because you can't scare me with paper. You can't shame me with whispers. And you sure as hell can't break me with empty threats. I've faced worse than this."

For a second, no one breathed.

The System purred in my ear.

[System Alert]

Dominance Aura amplified.

MILF bond reaction rising.

– Rika Shoku: Loyalty tug +20%

– Reina Hakari: Arousal +15%

– Mayumi Takahara: Submission instinct triggered

– Saki Hoshino: Excitement overflowing

Reina finally leaned forward, speaking for the first time. Her tone was velvet and steel.

"Vice Principal," she said, smooth as honey. "Unless you have real proof, continuing this line is not only unprofessional… it borders on harassment."

The tension snapped. Like a gunshot had just gone off.

---

The Vice Principal's jaw worked like he was chewing nails. He leaned forward, voice dripping with venom.

"You think this is a game? One more step out of line and I won't hesitate to expel you, Sakamoto. Permanently. You'll be gone from this school by tomorrow morning."

The threat rang through the room like a hammer blow. Several teachers exhaled in shock. Expulsion was no joke. It was the nuclear option.

The System flickered.

[Warning]

Hostile threat detected: Expulsion.

Counterplay recommended.

Passive: Unbreakable Presence activated.

– Fear resistance +100%

– Aura pressure nullifies intimidation.

My lips twitched into a grin. "Expel me?" I said, voice low, amused. "For what? For being accused without proof? Or for making you feel small in front of your own staff?"

That landed like a bullet.

A few teachers sucked in a breath, stunned that I'd just thrown it back in his face.

The Vice Principal's face turned scarlet. "You—!"

But before he could finish, the sound of a chair scraping against the floor cut through the room.

Rika.

She stood, hands trembling at her sides, but her voice… her voice was clear.

"That's enough."

Every head snapped toward her. Rika Shoku, the homeroom teacher who never raised her voice, who always kept her composure was glaring at the Vice Principal.

"You want to destroy a student's future over rumors? Over gossip?" Her eyes burned. "Do you even hear yourself? This isn't discipline. It's cruelty. And I won't stay silent while you do it."

The room went silent.

Reina's lips curved, pride flashing in her eyes. Mayumi looked like her heart might burst. And Saki… oh, Saki was practically glowing, savoring every second.

The Vice Principal's face twitched. He hadn't expected open rebellion, least of all from Rika.

"You… are defending him?"

"Yes," Rika snapped, louder than anyone had ever heard her. "Because he's worth defending."

The weight of her words crashed into the room like thunder.

The System chimed in my ear, smooth and satisfied.

[Emotional Sync: Rika Shoku – Deepened.]

Loyalty threshold rising.

Lust....100%

Passive unlocked: Protective Flame (Lv.1).

– When MILF defends host, emotional bond accelerates.

And just like that, the tide was broken.

The Vice Principal tried to bluster, tried to speak, but his authority was already slipping through his fingers.

Because the staff had just seen it: not a delinquent kid cornered by accusations — but a student who had teachers willing to risk everything to stand at his side.

---

The Vice Principal's mouth opened, then shut again. His authority was cracking — everyone could feel it.

He finally slammed the folder shut and shoved it aside like it burned his fingers. "This isn't over, Sakamoto. You're being watched. Step out of line again, and I'll end it."

Empty words. The System hummed in my head.

[Authority Suppression Broken.]

– Vice Principal intimidation nullified.

– MILF emotional bonds strengthened.

Reward granted: Skill – Silver Tongue (Lv.1)

• +20% persuasion in tense confrontations

• +15% charm effectiveness on bonded MILFs

I stood slowly, letting my chair scrape against the floor. The sound made a few teachers flinch.

"You're right about one thing," I said, looking the Vice Principal dead in the eye. "This isn't over. Because I don't plan to stop."

Gasps. Murmurs. A storm of emotions.

But I didn't give them time to speak. I turned on my heel, heading for the door, my presence filling the room like a fire that refused to be smothered.

And as I walked out, I felt their eyes on me.

Rika's — wide, torn, but blazing with loyalty.

Reina's — sharp, approving, faintly hungry.

Mayumi's — flushed, conflicted, trembling.

Saki's — gleaming with wicked satisfaction, like she'd just won twice over.

The System's final whisper wrapped around me like smoke.

[System Notice]

Mission Complete: Survive the Lion's Den.

Bond levels increased across all MILFs present.

New Quest Available: Turn Whispers into Chains of Desire, for a fuck festival!!!

I pushed open the door and stepped out into the corridor.

And even though my back was to them, I knew the truth:

I wasn't the one being hunted anymore.

I was the one everyone else had to survive.
