With great powers, comes a great harem!

[Yuki’s POV:]

“It’s you, who says your terminal is broken, but surprisingly it’s not the first time I am hearing this excuse, so don’t expect me to believe you this easily. ”

It has been more than an hour since I have been brought into this interrogation room or more precisely the staff room.

I have been asked what and why such an incident happened to which I answered truthfully, however, it doesn’t seem they believe me even a minuscule. It was understandable for them to bear such thoughts about me since I do not possess any reputation amongst teachers based on which they could form any judgment.

My terminal was taken for inspection and in the meantime this blue-haired teacher whose name I heard to be Kazuya was asking me the same things over and over, trying to get something out of me.

My mental barrier was attempted to be breached but the teacher failed at it. I don’t know whether it was banned for them to use mental interference on students or that pink-haired teacher was just ashamed of himself for not being able to break a teenager’s barrier since I haven’t been asked to take down my mental shield even once.

Of course, I wasn’t going to voluntarily do that since leaving my mind vulnerable to others was anything but settling to me. If someone gazes upon that incident where I was given blessings then who knows what kind of interrogation I would face.

“As I said, sir, I was just following the instruction provided to me by the terminal. And in the first place, how could I know that, that cabin belonged to a girl when I had just begun schooling today?”

I couldn’t help but let my annoyance get blended into my voice since my stomach was rumbling with hunger and headache elevating second by second. I was already too tired from all the moving I did today and also that PE class.

However, it seemed I went a little over the roof.

“Raise your voice once again and I would put you in detention straight for two weeks, even if you come out innocent today.”

Gritting my teeth I glared at the professor who was just abusing his powers here, but in return, the professor remained indifferent like he doesn’t concern himself with the future of any student.

I mean, two weeks of detention is a very heavy price if I consider the re-evaluation test.

“Can I ask the punishment of peeping toms, professor?”

Since I was free I asked the question. I was confident that they would find the bug soon enough so why not make this professor excited by the thought that I was getting nervous here?

With a smirk, the frost-hair replied, “You know how many toilets are there on the first floor?”

I shrugged with a slight shake of my head.

“Twenty-four. And barging into someone else’s room without permission would grant a student a week’s worth of toilet cleaning punishment. Ah, and most importantly, the punishment goes with a mana restrictor, in case someone tries being crafty while getting punished.”

“…”

…now I was praying that they find the bug since I don’t want to rot in those many toilets for a whole week.

“Professor Kazuya.” The lady who took my terminal came back to call the man before he walked away, only after giving me a squinted glare.

What seemed like an hour but only a few minutes went by, I saw the same man walking inside with a terminal in his hand.

“Here’s your new terminal. The old one would be used to catch the hacker who planted a bug in your device.”

Unsurprised, I asked, “So am I free to go?”

He nodded with a sigh.

Really, man? Why does it feel like you wanted me to see me in those dirty toilets so much…?

I was about to turn on my heels and walk out of the place when suddenly something came up in my mind as I asked.

“Umm…since my precious study hours have been wasted for something I never did and I was also targeted with that fireball earlier, shouldn’t I be given some compensation?”

It was a huge risk asking for compensation but it wasn’t some entirely baseless demand.

I am the victim here who has been getting bullied by my classmates. And now these people wasted more than an hour of mine in nothing but just asking the same thing again and again.

The teacher again squinted his already small eyes before he spoke in a heavier tone, “What do you want.”

“Just the permission to access the library after schooling hours. I will just be there for two hours after attending all my classes and this would continue only for a week.”

I made my point clear so the professor doesn’t count this as an absurd request. I need to get my hands on some offensive spells as soon as I can since I am running short on time.

My skill Book Worm would let me learn any spell but it would take me time to master them. And since it would look weird to be in meditation sitting in front of a book, I need to be alone while I absorb the knowledge.

Borrowing books wasn’t an option in the libraries until you don’t reach the third floor. Weird rule. Nothing I could do about it.

“Fine. But no stealing stuff, alright?”

*****

After reaching my room I didn’t immediately parted the door but knocked on it first. Twice, thrice, but no one answered from the other side. I used Mana observation which wasn’t that good yet, but I was able to perceive at least thirty meters around me for any presence.

“Well, they won’t prank with the same trick twice.”

I sighed and parted the door and found darkness greeting me from the other side.

“Turn on the lights. And tone down the ac to sixteen degrees.” I told the A.I. which would work only through my voice.

The very first thing my eyes caught sight of was a blue envelope that was lying on the ground, some meters ahead of the entrance. It seemed someone had slid it from the gap.

I postponed my curiosity to discover my dorm room for later since this envelope held my priority for now.

To be on the safe side, I cast a barrier around myself in case some lethal weapon is applied to the envelope or maybe some sort of spell goes off.

Taking out the letter I began to read the content.

[To Yuki-san.

I believe the recent incident into which you were pushed, was plotted by someone from the freshmen year. I can’t say their names but I would like to warn Yuki-san to be wary of the twins. It might be a little too much to ask when I am not revealing my identity but if possible then remain indoors as much as you can after schooling hours for the time being and also avoid meeting any female. Especially in private.

From,

A well-wisher.]
