### Chapter 17: How to Steal a Wizard's Woman (1-1)

"Armonia, good morning~"

"There is no separate morning here, but good morning."

Armonia corrected me as she accepted my greeting.

She was scrubbing the floor with a long mop in the ship's corridor.

Armonia, who was cleaning, was wearing a sailor uniform.

...Not the kind of sailor uniform high school girls wear.

It was a real sailor's uniform.

A sailor's uniform with black as the base color and white stripes forming patterns.

"Armonia, do you wear that uniform every time you clean?"

"Yes, that's correct. Wearing the proper uniform is important."

"Ooh…"

I took out my notebook and wrote.

* * *

List of outfits to wear when having sex with Armonia.

- Suit

- Captain's uniform

- Sailor's uniform

* * *

One more item was added to my wish list.

I wrote "sailor's uniform" in my notebook and looked at Armonia again.

Armonia was staring at my notebook intently.

"…"

"Huh? Why?"

"I saw you writing something."

"…You don't need to know."

"…"

Armonia's eyes didn't leave the notebook.

Well… even though I said she doesn't need to know, she kept looking…

I pretended to be indifferent and put the notebook in my pocket.

Viola was walking from a distance.

She was wearing a modest dress that she could wear where I lived.

"Ms. Armonia, I finished cleaning over there. Mr. Suho, are you awake?"

"Yeah, Viola is diligent."

"Cleaning is so much fun!"

"Haha… that's good."

Oh my….

I told her there was no need to clean in that place.

For Viola, cleaning was a kind of play.

To her, this place was a paradise on earth.

Although the interior of the ship was limited, it was free.

And she had a companion.

At first, she found Armonia a bit intimidating, but she quickly got used to her.

If the other person didn't push her away, Viola would always rush in.

It had been a week since Viola came here.

When she first arrived, I explained this place to her.

It's a ship called Kibotos, and it belongs to NTL Corporation….

After hearing my explanation, she said….

-What's a ship?-

-Uh… it's like a boat.-

-What's a boat?-

-Uh… it's something that floats on the sea.-

-What's the sea?-

-….-

Viola's mind was truly a blank slate.

Perhaps Viola knew more about sex than common knowledge.

In the end, at Armonia's recommendation, we started with letter education.

She was being educated through educational videos.

It was more effective than Armonia or I teaching her.

Viola was always watching TV unless she was gathered to talk.

She really liked anime….

And the bedroom.

This place had the Kibotos control room (including the warp room), two offices, and one living room.

I was staying in one of the offices, and Viola was staying in the remaining living room.

However, I had never slept in the office.

I hugged Viola from behind.

"Su, Suho, A, Armonia is watching…."

"Hehe, I know…"

"Hmm…."

"…"

Armonia's expressionless face excited me even more.

I had slept in Viola's bedroom every day since I came here.

Most importantly….

Viola's living room was next to Armonia's office.

What was she thinking while listening to our lovemaking?

Just thinking about it was thrilling.

But my intimate moment with Viola was interrupted by Armonia.

"Mr. Suho, I have something to tell you about today's mission."

"Huh, now?"

"Yes, I was going to tell you after you woke up."

"Ugh… okay. Viola, I'll be back."

"Hmm… okay."

I left the reluctant Viola and headed to my office with Armonia.

Armonia told me to go in first and wait in my office while she finished tidying up.

"Okay."

After hearing the sound of her entering her office, I thought, "Do I really need to go to my office?"

"Wait, if it's just a casual conversation, can't we do it in Armonia's office?"

I immediately turned around and entered Armonia's office.

"Armonia, can't we just do it… here…?"

"…"

"…"

What I saw was Armonia taking off her sailor uniform top.

She had on a white bra that contrasted with her silver hair and pale skin.

She looked at me for a moment, then continued changing.

Wow, her panties are black too….

She started changing into a suit without any hesitation, even though I was watching.

I realized something about Armonia while watching her.

Armonia is the type who takes off the top first….

I'm the type who takes off the bottom first….

After calmly changing into her suit, Armonia approached me.

"I said I would come, so what brings you here?"

"Uh… I thought we could do it here…."

"No, the facilities in your office are better, so I think it's better to use that."

"Uh… okay."

Wow, how can her expression not change at all….

Maybe she's a cyborg or something?

Just as I was gathering energy to have sex!

Armonia turned her head with a *click*…

(*Click, I am a cyborg.*)

So creepy….

Armonia and I entered my office.

I sat in my desk chair, and Armonia stood next to me like a secretary and started her report.

Armonia told me about the aftermath of the previous request.

"The hero is now crossing the desert to find his sister in the city on the other side, causing chaos."

"… He really crossed the desert?"

"Yes. Thanks to the content you wrote, he is expected to achieve results beyond expectations."

At the time, I had casually written in Viola's letter that he would cross the desert.

I had written it without much thought.

Most importantly, the country on the other side of the desert allows slave trading, and they are stirring things up there.

They are mobilizing all their forces to catch the hero….

"How long did it take to cross the desert?"

"It is estimated to have taken about 5 days."

"… How long would it take for a normal person to cross it?"

"A normal human would take at least 3 months to cross it without any means of transportation. In other words, it's impossible."

"… Wow. But if you know it takes 3 months, wouldn't it be normal to think it's impossible?"

"It seems he doesn't have that much rationality left."

"Wow…."

According to Armonia's additional report, Krell is gone.

According to witnesses, a large fire suddenly appeared in the village, and Krell evaporated….

"Man… I thought I would just mess with the village chief and be done with it. I didn't expect this."

"From just this information, it's clear that you successfully provoked the hero's anger."

And the anti-hero army, which lost the hero, is now in chaos.

However, the hero's corruption has not yet spread.

Since only a week has passed, it seems difficult for the corruption to spread.

It might just be covered up….

Armonia said that if the hero continues his "30,000-mile journey to find his sister," it could not only turn the tide but also completely change the game.

In some sense, he was a truly remarkable person.

"I will inform you if I receive more information in the future."

"Okay~"

"This is about the next mission we will take on."

Armonia displayed a screen on my desk.

The screen showed a long list.

"Due to the skill shown in the recent mission, more requests have come in than expected."

"Oh… there was only one before, right?"

"Yes. Moreover, that request was not of interest to the Zodiac. They didn't think we could be of much help."

"Well, what did you expect from a bunch of newbies."

There was no need to view the Zodiac's actions negatively.

It was a natural reaction.

They probably thought, "If we fail, we'll just have wasted 20,000 enels."

Armonia said that she had only received the content of the requests over the past week and had not accepted any.

She explained that if she had accepted one she liked, she might have missed out on a better request later, so she took a break.

"Most importantly, I think we should approach this mission differently from the previous one."

"Huh? How?"

"First, let me explain the difference between long-term and short-term missions."

Armonia explained that the incoming missions were divided into two types.

Long-term and short-term missions.

Long-term missions are those that receive enels in installments over a certain period and are performed over a long period.

Short-term missions are those where a down payment is received once and the task is expected to be completed in a short period.

For long-term missions, the Zodiac side will take measures to allow other tasks to be taken on during the downtime, and the methods vary, so they will be explained when the request is accepted.

"The long-term missions are listed from 1 year to 10 years, and the short-term missions are listed in order of contemporary stability."

"… 10 years?"

"Yes, but I don't recommend it. In fact, I suggest blocking the side that made such a request."

"Let's leave it for now. Who knows. But it's not like they're using slaves…."

Not all members of the Zodiac are the same.

Requests come individually to the agents of the gods affiliated with the Zodiac, not from the Zodiac organization.

Without knowing the content, it's not right to say they're all bad, but 10 years is too much….

"My personal recommendation is this one."

"3 years… a magic school?"

"Yes, the era is similar to the medieval period."

This mission is set in a similar medieval era.

However, unlike the previous location, this place is peaceful and not at war.

"Krell was peaceful, but only in that area…."

"Yes, I think the risk of life-threatening situations will be minimal, similar to before."

The starting point of the mission is to enroll in the Strata Magic School, the continent's top elite institution.

The admission requirement is to be 20 years old and have a certain level of talent.

However, it's not just any school.

Strata, the only magic school in the world, is so prestigious that even the royal families of various countries bow to enroll.

My mission is to seduce the woman who is expected to be the top student at such a magic school.

The problem is….

"I don't have a girlfriend yet."

"Ah~ You don't have a girlfriend, but you have someone you like?"

"Yes, the reason the Zodiac side set this as a long-term mission is because of that."

Well, even if you're not dating, you can still break someone's mental state, but it would be weak.

To break a bulletproof glass, one hit is not enough.

You need to shower it with multiple shots.

Only then can you ascend with a "Hallelujah~."

"The best part of a long-term mission is that you receive enels on a weekly basis."

"Hmm… it's good, but if I fail later, won't I have to return it?"

"If you fail, your credibility will decrease, but the enel support is a basic condition. You don't need to return it."

"That's a relief."

There's no penalty for failure.

Moreover, the reward for a successful long-term mission is very high.

"The reward for a successful mission is 10 million enels."

"Wow."

The enels for a long-term mission were indeed huge.

"So if I successfully complete 30 long-term missions… hehe…."

"…Yes, you will reach your goal."

Armonia used 30 million enels to summon me.

And 10 times that is 300 million.

It was certainly a high number.

But to me, it was just a number.

Every game has an end.

There's a saying, "A game without an ending is trash."

That ending is definitely….

I looked at Armon
