The tower grand was, as the name might suggest, grand. A skyscraper, and the only one of its kind in the entire world. Once it stood even taller than the royal castle, but along with the sorceress's disappearance, the tower fell as well. Now, a place infested with noble talent, the tower grand was reduced to nothing more than a connection building centre.
Realizing that, as she sat amongst the many students as a disguised woman, Aura let out a yawn and eyed her surroundings to find some form of entertainment. The voice of a sage teaching some basic magic formula at the very front echoed through the classroom, with not a soul paying any attention.
'This guy's useless…' Having decided on attending classes as all sages would eventually show up in them, the succubus's plan was to act as any other student and learn as much as possible about the sages. 'But this is so boring, time was when these theories people were born with like instinct, but now you have to teach them? What has the world come to in a thousand years? Ughh…'
Like a grandmother scoffing at modern change, she rolled her eyes and kept scanning through the crowd. And that is when she noticed something–a couple sitting at the very edge of a fleet of chairs, getting a little intimate behind the bodies of those in front. A girl's hand tenderly touching her lover by the thighs, her hand roamed across his groin with delicacy and deliberate touch.
Peering into her mind, however, Aura found that the girl was simply after the young man's wealth. All the while, there was another man plaguing her head–a rival of the same man's family, who'd set her on this path. Together, the two hoped to plunder the secrets of his family, and already it seemed that the girl had him wrapped around in her hand.
'Ahaha~ At least there's some fun characters in here.' Turning her attention to the exact opposite side of the aisle, she dug her eyes into a group of nerdy-looking boys. She could smell their virginity from her seat, and desperate as they were, they could never say no to a girl when asked to do their homework or fill out an assignment. And yet the most they would ever get out of those transactions was empty praises to their face and being a topic of gossip behind their backs. 'Why don't they just wait for their parents to choose a bride that will eventually make their lives hell? Trying to act as good guys when they're only being nice for a chance at sex. Better a monster than a loser and a failed manipulator.'
Scoffing at them, Aura brought her eyes back to the teacher. An older man, possibly in his late fifties teaching the students about the theory behind magic's inner workings. The concept of the life force and the soul, conjuring what turns concentration into focused mana, was but an elementary subject; even so, from the supposed intellect of the nobles, this was what was considered as higher education in this age.
'Amiena would've spat on your grave, professor.' Disappointed even more, Aura peered deeper into the sage's mind. Just a few levels under Cill, he wasn't all that impressive, although there was one thing that she found quite curious. The frame of a young girl–one of his students–lay bare as he thrusted along. He was fucking her pathetically, and she was yawning between his failed attempts to make her cum. 'Ahhh~ This is why I love fucking people's memories.'
Looking around some more, Aura quickly found the girl in the professor's memory. Sitting in a corner with her curly blonde hair, she was chatting away with her friends and paid no attention to the lecture. She'd already paid the price to pass after all, and not just to one professor, but to nearly every single one of them.
In a way, she was more of a succubus than Aura. A woman who slept around for advantage couldn't be me, the devil thought. For her, one man was enough, and the thought of anyone else touching her was reprehensible enough for her to burn her own arm. In others, however, she admired the quality as it showed how little difference there was between a human and a succubus.
'I would love to pick her brain before we eventually start slaughtering these pigs.' Smiling ear to ear, Aura leaned forward on the desk and rested her chin on her wrists. Humming along to her own tune, she connected her mind to the rest and scoured through their memories for more juicy details. And like any campus, far and wide, there were scandals and secrets buried everywhere. 'No way! Ahaha~!'
Opening her eyes to one particular memory, the succubus eyed a young man sitting in the front. He looked average with a flimsy body, and yet somehow, he'd gotten the attention of an older lady who just so happened to be his best friend's mother. Sure, the widow had made the first move on him, but the man did not step back either.
For many years, the woman had kept herself true to her husband's long-gone spirit, but on one faithful day, she'd found herself falling in love with her son's best friend. It did not happen in a day or week either, but was rather a slow process. She fought the urge at first, but then reluctantly stole every chance she could get to be alone with him or to brush a touch.
The young man wasn't blind to her hunger either, and when the dam of her desire broke, he guzzled her sweet nectar. Had it been just that, however, the story wouldn't have excited the succubus as much. But at the end of that whole unraveling, she'd found one grave piece of information.
'She got pregnant, but to keep the illusion of purity, she seduced her own son, ekeke~...' The child now being nurtured in the duchess's belly belonged to her son's best friend, but in his mind it was he who was the father–a well-known but less spoken fact in his household. 'Poor little things, these humans. They think the purity of their blood means they need to recycle their genes through the same machine.'
Shaking her head with a smirk, Aura leaned back in her chair and returned her attention to the girl she'd noticed first. Her head hunched over the groin of the man she was manipulating, the girl was sucking his cock while a handful of her friends kept silently giggling beside her. As for the young man himself, he had the seat in front of him gripped tightly–almost as if his life depended on it.
Struggling to hold himself, it wasn't long before he came, and as he did, the girl lifted her head, and her throat bobbed as she gulped his babies.
"There, now you owe me one~," she whispered with a gentle smile on her face.
Smiling right back, not knowing that he was being webbed by a spider, the youngster gave her a nod, and the two agreed to meet by his house. For what reason exactly? Aura never tried to pry for some things were better left to interpretation, and knowing everything often spoiled all the fun.
Returning her mind to her task, she stopped to wonder how Valentine was doing with her part of the plan. Taking over people's minds and turning them into half-puppets–free for control most of the time, but at a moment's notice, could be turned into zombies, vampires, or puppets.
'I should start making progress too. Wouldn't want that bitch to get ahead of me.' Closing her eyes, she plunged into the sage's memories and this time, absorbed everything he knew in a matter of a few seconds. For the most part, there was nothing important in his head. A weak man in a position of power abusing the girls with the promise of getting them higher–that's all he was, and most of the other male sages around him were pretty much the same.
As for the women, they were far hungrier for power than the men were for young flesh. Almost relating to the female sages in his memory, a smile took over Aura's face, although one thing in particular concerned her, and that was the fact that only Cill was a mystery to him. It seemed that the woman was close with the Mediora sage, so much so that the two often talked in confidence, which led to the others keeping their distance.
'I know that she's hiding her true appearance, but I never did dig too far into her head, did I?' Drawn by the allure of the unknown, she decided to unravel the mystery behind this strange woman the next time she met her face-to-face. But until then, she had another task, and with the first class over, it was time for the other sage to come and reveal his secrets to her.
Unfortunately for Aura, however, nothing more scandalous ever came up. Even so, leaving a spectre of her aura in their heads, she readied the sages for when the fiend decided to take over this place.
'Now then, time to implant fake memories in some lovers and give the losers boners that shall last forever but go down the moment they get a chance to fuck a girl~.' Making her own fun, Aura could've stayed in the class forever. But of course, she couldn't. Her husband was waiting for her report after all.
