Chapter 4: I will get my revange someday...

Viola had a peaceful sleeping posture, remaining in the same position almost all night. Her breathing was steady, and she looked adorable in her sleep, a stark contrast to her imposing aura when awake.

Warned not to touch her, Leoni didn't dare make any rash movements. His horns and tail could be hidden with just a thought, so they didn't bother him while sleeping.

After a relatively peaceful night, Leoni, both physically and mentally exhausted, fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes...

...

"Wake up, lazy cat."

Groggily opening his eyes, Leoni found Viola's face very close, almost filling his entire field of vision. Her beautiful face was framed by black hair that lazily fell on Leoni's cheek, tickling him slightly with each of her "sweet" breaths.

"Get up quick, sister will take you to breakfast."

As she spoke, Viola straightened up and, before leaving the bed she didn't forget to pat Leoni on the buttocks.

He felt her attitude had changed from last night when she first discovered he was only level one. From disappointment and dissatisfaction to curiosity and closeness – did it really take just one night?

Viola used her magic to create a basin of clear water for Leoni to wash up. After he finished, she carefully wiped the water droplets off his face with a towel.

When leaving the room, Viola even put her hand on Leoni's shoulder. Each time Leoni showed an embarrassed expression, she would smirk and pull him closer to herself.

On their way from the dormitory to the dining hall, every female succubus they passed looked at them with envy. And no one dared to approach Leoni to chat, respectfully nodding to Viola when their eyes met.

'Could it be that Viola had a high status in the succubus academy? Anything she claimed as hers, no one dared to bother?'

Leoni shook his head. How quickly he had adapted to the local customs, naturally lowering his status to Viola's "property" His current low level didn't mean he'd never rise.

'Men don't have magical power, right? Women have higher social status, right? I, Leoni, will become the first max-level male succubus in this world. Then, I'll subdue all those scornful big sisters who looked down on me!'

"What are you grinning about? Choose what you want to eat"

Jolted back to reality by Viola's pat gently on his head, Leoni decided to focus on surviving under Viola's "claws" Not getting kicked out by her would be a victory.

Leoni glanced around the succubus academy's cafeteria, surprised to find it not much different from the world he had known before. The breakfast options included fried eggs, bread, vegetable soup, and nutritious porridge. He had expected something more exotic, considering demons supposedly needed to consume magical energy to survive.

After choosing a fried egg, a slice of bread, and a bowl of unknown vegetable soup, Leoni sat down and watched Viola produce a cherry-pink card from nowhere, handing it to a cafeteria worker who swiped it on a stone tablet.

"What's that card, sister Viola?"

"Hmm? Oh... It's a magic card, engraved with wealth information using magic. It's universally accepted in the demon world. Just deposit earned gold coins periodically to the department operating the magic cards."

'So, it was basically a demon world bank card'

Leoni hadn't expected life in this world to be so convenient; he thought it would be more like a medieval world with low productivity.

Having magical power really changed everything, making many aspects of life develop in a completely different direction.

"When I earn money... I'll pay sister back..."

"Hahaha~, you're really cute. The money I earn is more than enough to support you..."

Hearing this, Leoni froze with a slice of bread in his mouth.

'Did I hear that right? Being supported by a rich woman... I am essentially being kept by a wealthy patroness!'

Suppressing a grin like he had succeeded in a conspiracy, Leoni's eyes twitched. 'Forget about rising to full level to subdue the bad sisters. Now, all he wanted was to stay by Viola's side and enjoy life...'

"Don't get too happy too soon, Don't think you're special just because you're the only male in this academy. Without magic, ability, or wealth, I hope you understand your place, little Leoni..."

"Yes... Sorry, sister Viola..."

Cough cough... Being kept by a wealthy woman meant bearing humiliations, something Leoni was mentally prepared for. Being scolded a bit wouldn't kill him.

"However... you're pretty and cute, and have a good personality. Sister happens to need a 'pet'... Ah, no, a 'servant' by her side. You understand what I mean, right?"

Great, so this was waiting for him. A "pet"... Not even regarded as a person? There should be a limit to looking down on someone!

Despite feeling like he was being commanded and coerced, Leoni nodded in agreement to Viola's demands. In this foreign world and under her roof, he didn't have many options. He couldn't expect to be on equal footing with her in this female-dominant society, especially without any magical power or status.

"Good. I'll set some rules for you. You need to ask my permission for everything you do, including eating, sleeping, going to the bathroom, and so on. Basically, every aspect of your daily life. And you must call me 'Mistress' Understood?"

Leoni nodded again, though the rules seemed overly strict. Even prisoners weren't regulated this much. He glanced at Viola's playful smile, realizing her psychological bent.

'A thrill of dominating and controlling others – she was a control freak...'

"Understood?"

Viola's expression darkened a bit, and Leoni wondered what he had done wrong.

"Understood, Mistress!"

Luckily, Leoni was quick to respond. He had already felt Viola's intimidating anger. If he hadn't said " Mistress " in time, he couldn't imagine what might have happened.

Viola's red eyes calmed down again. Her gaze, always filled with desire and a teasing smile, made Leoni uncomfortable...

"Mistress... may I eat my breakfast?"

Now understanding Viola's character and preferences, Leoni quickly tried to please her. He arranged the bite of bread he had just taken back onto the plate and looked at Viola with a pitiful expression.

'Why did I suddenly feel so submissive...'

"Yes, you can~. Finish eating and go to class. After class, come to find me immediately. My office is on the second floor of the administrative area, with 'Viola' on the doorplate."

"Okay, Mistress..."

"Hehehe~, you're so cute, little Leoni~"

Leoni finished his breakfast absentmindedly, using his ability to secretly observe the levels of the surrounding succubus. Except for Viola, most of the female succubus studying here were only around level 10. Seeing this, his level one status didn't seem so outrageous.

They parted at the intersection leading to the academic area. Before leaving, Viola traced her finger from Leoni's waist up to his neck along his spine, causing him to shiver and flush.

Leoni wasn't usually one to change easily, but he didn't want to resign himself to being kept and treated like a pet by Viola. The humiliation of being treated as such would, he vowed, be repaid someday...
