Chapter 11

“The formal training starts today, and it will be quite tough, so everyone should be mentally prepared.” After everyone finished breakfast, we gathered at the same venue as yesterday.

“Yes, teacher.” The students seemed quite enthusiastic about this. It seemed they could put in a good amount of effort and give them a good workout, because they might not be so interested later.

“This morning’s training involves completing a designated task. You will form groups of three to carry out the task. You can choose your teammates yourself. Then come here and draw your task. It will be written on the task sheet. There are various different tasks here, and you will draw one randomly. There will be some difficulties during the task, so you need to be careful to deal with them. Now, you can form your teams first.”

After I finished speaking, the students dispersed and went to find their own friends. Soon they formed small groups of two or three. As expected, after I suggested forming teams, Charlotte pulled Cecilia and Houki Shinonono together. It seems that she wanted to form a team. I have to say, daughters are really their fathers’ little darlings.

“Students who have formed teams can come to me to pick up their tasks.” I saw that most of the teams had been formed, so I took out the machine and let the students choose. Before they gathered, they changed into the IS training armor. The students pressed the machine, and the task was automatically loaded into the training armor.

Soon, the students who had formed teams lined up and came to me to receive their tasks. As expected, Charlotte and her group were first in line. Charlotte walked over with Cecilia and Houki Shinonono with a grin, winked at me secretly, and even stuck out her tongue playfully.

I gave Charlotte a “good job” look. My daughter is really capable, even helping her father with the affairs of the harem. With a daughter like this, what more could a father ask for? After today’s training ends, I will definitely pamper Charlotte.

Charlotte readily accepted the mission and then left with Shinonono Houki and the others. I watched their graceful figures as they walked and discussed the mission until the next team arrived. Only then did I look away and continue to supervise the students as they received their missions.

“Alright, Mr. Yamada, let’s go inside.” After the students had received their tasks and set off, I led Maya Yamada into the building and into a monitoring room. As soon as we entered, we saw multiple screens displaying the students’ actions, clearly indicating that it was a monitoring room.

“Teacher Jian, the surveillance equipment here is so sophisticated, it’s really impressive.” Yamada Maya walked over to observe with a curious look. This equipment is no less advanced than that in the IS Academy. This surveillance system doesn’t seem to be built into the IS training armor; it’s as if the surveillance is coming from somewhere else.

“Thank you for the compliment. We’ll keep watch here in case anything happens.” I pulled out a chair for Yamada Maya to sit down.

“Okay, thank you, Professor Ken.” My gentlemanly behavior made Yamada Maya feel a little goodwill towards me. After seeing Yamada Maya sit down, I also pulled out a chair and sat down next to her.

Basically, all the students in each scene have already set off, but their goals are different due to the different tasks. Some are to obtain a certain item, some are to defeat a specific target, some are to fight against another group, and so on. However, I am mainly focused on Charlotte’s group.

I remember their mission was to go deep into the forest to retrieve something. The location of the target had already been marked in the mission log. The IS training armor could show that Charlotte and the others rushed to the destination after receiving the mission and had now entered the forest.

“I wonder what kind of enemies will appear. Will they be the same robots as yesterday?” Charlotte asked her friends as she walked in the middle, keeping a watchful eye on her surroundings.

“Very likely, but whatever comes, I will deal with it decisively.” Cecilia, leading the way, remained confident, which was part of her charm.

“With Miss here, it’s really reliable, isn’t it, Houki?” Charlotte said with a grin, changing the subject to Houki, who had been relatively quiet the whole way.

“Yeah, whatever the enemy is, we’ll just defeat them.” Shinonono Houki was gradually starting to integrate into the trio’s small team. It wasn’t that Shinonono Houki was aloof, but rather that she didn’t have many friends before, so she was a bit reserved when interacting with others.

“Wait a minute, something’s approaching.” Cecilia, who was walking in front, raised her hand to signal. Charlotte and Houki Shinonono also noticed the rustling sound of rapid movement at the same time. Just as they had said before, the group stopped and prepared to confront the approaching enemy directly.

“Here it comes.” A green shadow rushed out of the bushes and attacked Shinonono Houki. Thanks to the reaction ability that had been gradually improved under my training, Shinonono Houki blocked the attack with his sword. The green figure, whose attack had failed, used the rebound force from the collision with the sword to retreat back into the bushes.

“You hid so fast, Houki. Could you even see what it was?” Cecilia frowned, looking at the spot where the green shadow had just disappeared into.

Shinonono Houki recalled what she had just seen: “It looked like a feline, more like a tiger, but it was moving too fast, so I didn’t see the details clearly. But since it could withstand a knife, it should be a robot.”

“It must be the teacher. The teacher said last night that it was newly prepared when she went to make adjustments.” Charlotte looked around warily. After the robot hid, it didn’t make any noise, like an assassin waiting for its chance.

“It should be. Teacher Jian just likes to try new things. This robot seems to be agile, so everyone should be careful.” Cecilia initially reminded everyone in a serious tone, but then she seemed to remember something, and her pretty face instantly turned blush.

“Um.”

“No problem. Oh, Cecilia, why is your face red?” After Houki Shinonono gave a brief reply, Charlotte, in her response, glanced at Cecilia’s suddenly flushed cheeks and asked with some curiosity.

“It’s nothing, I just suddenly felt a bit hot. Okay, let’s focus on the enemy in front of us.” Cecilia turned her head away guiltily. She couldn’t very well say that she was thinking about Teacher Jian’s various ways of teasing her. That guy always had new tricks up his sleeve in that area. She didn’t know why he knew so many. He must have been with a lot of girls. Hmph.

“They’re here.” Thinking about it, Cecilia felt a little petty. “They have such a perfect girl like me, yet they’re always flirting with other women. It seems I’ll have to discipline them properly when we get back.” Although Cecilia’s mind was wandering a little, the moment Charlotte called out, Cecilia immediately turned to Charlotte and fired a shot.

With a loud “bang,” Cecilia’s bullet struck the green shadow, causing it to fall to the ground. Only then did the three of them truly see its dark hue. Just as Shinonome Houki had said, it was indeed a feline, a green robot shaped like a leopard. Its exterior material was exactly the same as the round robot from yesterday, both smooth and shiny, only the color was different.

“It seems this is the obstacle to our mission.” Cecilia raised her gun and aimed at the green panther. Judging from what she had just seen, the gunshot had caused limited damage to it, only some scratches. So Cecilia didn’t rush to fire. Instead, she had Charlotte and Houki Shinonono separate and slowly approach from both sides to see if close combat would be more effective.

The green leopard clearly didn’t intend to wait for Charlotte and Shinonono Houki to get close. It suddenly pounced after Shinonono Houki and the others had only taken a few steps. Cecilia saw the green leopard move and immediately fired her gun. However, for some reason, the green leopard was even faster than before, so this time Cecilia’s bullets only grazed a few targets.

“Be careful, this leopard is even faster than before.” Cecilia had just finished warning when Charlotte was already engaged in combat with the green leopard. Because the green leopard was too fast, Charlotte could only parry at the moment. Upon seeing this, Shinonono Houki immediately rushed over to help, and Cecilia also readjusted her shooting aim.

After Cecilia and Houki Shinonono joined the battle, the situation improved significantly. However, due to a lack of coordination, they were still evenly matched with the green leopard. Cecilia provided ranged support with fire, while Charlotte and Houki Shinonono engaged in melee attacks. However, the green leopard was too agile, and they couldn’t find a way to defeat it for the time being.

Just as Charlotte and her friends were looking for an opportunity to coordinate, the green leopard was also quietly changing. Its body became more slender, and its originally smooth surface gradually developed armor. Charlotte and her friends noticed this change, but they couldn’t stop it. Even if they occasionally saw it or shot at it, it only grazed them and didn’t cause any damage.

After the green leopard completed its transformation, its speed increased even further, and its defense became stronger than before. Cecilia’s bullets dealt less damage to it than before, which made Charlotte and the others a little anxious, wondering if the creature would continue to transform.

“Looks like we’ll have to finish this quickly. That’s what I say, but I don’t really have a solution. Cecilia, Houki, do you have any ideas?” Charlotte asked helplessly, looking at the green leopard that had dodged her horizontal slash.

“My shots aren’t having much effect on this green leopard. Maybe hitting a vital spot would work, but it’s too fast and hard to hit,” Cecilia said, somewhat frustrated. This was much harder to deal with than the round robot from yesterday.

“That’s right, I don’t have any good ideas right now either. I can only try to improve our teamwork.” Houki Shinonono nodded in agreement.

“Teacher Jian, isn’t the enemy Cecilia and the others assigned a bit too strong?” Yamada Maya compared the enemies the other students encountered and found that the robots the other students encountered were at most two or three times stronger than the round robot from yesterday, but the leopard that Cecilia and the others encountered was several times stronger than the round robot.

“Well, the capable should do more. With Cecilia and the other two’s strength, solving this shouldn’t be a problem.”

“But this is probably beyond their capabilities,” Yamada Maya couldn’t help but ask, seeing my calm expression. The green leopard had already begun its second transformation, and its attack power was clearly stronger. Cecilia and the others were now starting to find themselves on the defensive.

“Yes, their strength is far more than that.” To Yamada Maya’s question, I just smiled enigmatically and didn’t answer her directly, letting her continue watching and find out for herself.

At this moment, Charlotte and Houki Shinonono, both melee fighters, were in a sorry state due to the attacks from the green leopard and could only focus on defense. Although Cecilia wanted to help, her bullets were directly cut by the green leopard. The green leopard’s claws were much sharper than before, but fortunately, the energy shield was there to block the claw attacks.

“It can even transform again? Isn’t that too unfair?” Cecilia looked at the green leopard, whose strength had greatly increased after transforming again, somewhat speechless. At this rate, the mission might fail.

“Bang.” Houki Shinono turned to the side and barely blocked the green leopard’s attack with her sword. But after the green leopard’s first attack failed, it immediately launched a second attack. At this time, Houki Shinono could no longer block it. Fortunately, Charlotte, who was standing to the side, used her sword to slash upwards, causing the green leopard to give up the pursuit.

“Damn it.” Charlotte was about to give chase when the green leopard turned the tables on her. Charlotte quickly retaliated, but after its second transformation, the green leopard had improved its strength in attack. So, in this hasty exchange, Charlotte staggered. Fortunately, Cecilia saw this and immediately provided support fire.

Houki Shinonono quickly came to help, and together with Charlotte, they attacked. Cecilia took the opportunity to shoot. In fact, the three of them were cooperating much better than at the beginning, but the green leopard was now even more at ease than before, and its attacks were effective time and time again. The situation was really not optimistic.

Gradually, as time passed, Charlotte and Houki Shinonono’s stamina began to wane, and Cecilia wasn’t in much better shape. Having realized that ranged attacks weren’t very effective, Cecilia had also joined the melee combat. Cecilia was skilled in long-range artillery fire, but her stamina wasn’t as good as Charlotte’s. In addition to her sword, Cecilia also used a small pistol during the battle, firing it occasionally, somewhat like a gun-fu.

The green leopard, which had been difficult to subdue for a long time, had accumulated many wounds, but none of them were fatal. It just looked rather pitiful. If this dragged on, the outcome would be hard to say. However, at this moment, the green leopard’s eyes gradually turned black. It seemed that the final setting I had made was about to be activated.

“What?” After the green leopard’s eyes turned completely black, it knocked Charlotte back several steps with a single claw. The approaching Houki Shinonono was also knocked back. Cecilia’s close-range shot was dodged by the green leopard. Knowing that they could not relax for even a moment, Charlotte and Houki Shinonono immediately attacked again with their swords.

“I didn’t expect this thing to become so strong.” After fighting for a while, Cecilia, who was weaker in close combat, was hit by the powerful green leopard and sent flying. She crashed into a tree before coming to a stop. With one less person to restrain them, Charlotte and Houki Shinonono, who were already exhausted, were even more vulnerable and were quickly defeated one by one.

“Is it really still too much worse than my sister?” Shinobu Houki murmured as she lay on the ground. The three of them had done their best, but the leopard kept getting stronger and stronger, which was beyond their ability to handle. They had been full of confidence, but they didn’t expect to mess things up so early.

“I won’t give up so easily, Cecilia and Houki too, right?” In just two minutes, Cecilia and Houki were knocked down one after another, leaving only Charlotte standing and confronting the Leopard. However, her energy shield was now exhausted, and her stamina had reached its limit. But the thought that her father was watching her gave her the motivation to continue fighting.

“That’s right, how could I possibly be defeated by something like this?” Cecilia leaned against the tree and stood up again. Since she was physically weak, she did not use close combat again, but instead took out her gun and started shooting from a distance.

“Yes, it would be too embarrassing to give up like this. Thank you, Charlotte and Cecilia.” Houki Shinonono is a child who never gives up. She was just feeling discouraged for a moment. Seeing her friends working so hard, she immediately cheered up again.

The three women resumed their battle with the green leopard, but having only barely managed to hold on, they were quickly knocked down again. Undeterred, they immediately got up, picked up their weapons, and continued fighting. After several such encounters, all three were exhausted and could only sustain themselves with their knives or guns.

“Teacher Jian, why don’t we let them give up?” Seeing her students fighting so hard, Yamada Maya felt both gratified and heartbroken, because it was clear to everyone that they wouldn’t win if they continued like this, and would only suffer more.

“Indeed, it’s about time.” Just as Yamada Maya said, it’s about time; if we continue any longer, it will be a bit too late.

“Phew, Cecilia and the others have tried their best. Ken-sensei, the enemies you arranged were really too strong. How could they possibly complete the mission like this?” Yamada Maya breathed a sigh of relief when she heard me say that, and then gave me a reproachful look.

“Beep—beep—beep—.” Just as the Green Leopard was about to deliver the final blow, a message suddenly came from Shinonono Houki and the others’ IS training armor. At the same time, the Green Leopard also stopped, as if waiting for something.

“Alright, I’ve seen your performance. You all worked very hard, and I’m very satisfied. So it’s time to give you a reward.” Before Charlotte could even click to view the message, it opened automatically, and my voice came through. Hearing my voice, Charlotte and Cecilia felt much more at ease. Although Houki Shinonono wasn’t quite as dramatic, she inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief as well.

“Hmm~” As soon as I finished speaking, a needle protruded from their IS training armor, pierced their delicate skin, and injected some liquid into their bodies.

“Teacher, what is this?” After the liquid injection was completed, Cecilia felt a warm sensation throughout her body, sweeping away her previous fatigue and making her feel fully revitalized. Not only that, she felt inexhaustible energy and even seemed to have become stronger.

“This is a special potion made by the teacher. Just like the special drink made by the teacher, it has unexpected effects.” Seeing that Shinonono Houki and the others had re-established their fighting stance and were ready to start the battle again, I nodded in satisfaction. It seemed that the effects of the potion had begun to take hold.

“Teacher, this potion is really effective! I feel better than ever before!” Charlotte swung her knife forcefully, creating a whooshing sound. At that moment, the green leopard, which had been offline, finally came back online and immediately attacked Charlotte and her companions.

“Not only that, I feel that my body has indeed become stronger.” When Houki Shinonono faced the green leopard again, although it wasn’t very obvious, because she had been fighting the green leopard all along, even if it was a little bit, she had definitely become stronger.

“Let’s go again, Green Leopard. We won’t give up easily.” Cecilia raised her gun again. Her sharp senses as a marksman allowed her to perceive that the Green Leopard’s movements were slightly slower than before. Of course, it wasn’t that the Green Leopard was slower, but rather that her dynamic vision had improved.

“Wow, Teacher Jian, what happened to Cecilia and the others?” The students who were just feeling sorry for them suddenly became energetic again. How could this be? Judging from the few words they had heard before, it must have been the work of this mysterious teacher.

“As I just said, I only used some medicine to allow them to continue fighting.” This special medicine, needless to say, is the same as the special beverage, mainly made from my semen, but the semen content is much more concentrated than that of the special beverage with just a little bit of it.

“Could it be some kind of stimulant?” The effect of making someone feel completely refreshed is too strong, which easily makes one think of some illegal banned drugs. Although Yamada Maya felt that I probably wouldn’t use such a harmful drug, she still couldn’t help but have some doubts.

“I understand your concerns, Ms. Yamada. Don’t worry, these medicines not only have no side effects, but also have other good effects.” Yamada Maya’s concern shows that she is a good teacher, so I am happy to dispel her doubts.

“Really? That puts my mind at ease. I’m sorry, Ken-sensei, I was a little doubtful of you just now.” Hearing me say that, Yamada Maya breathed a sigh of relief, and then bowed to me to apologize.

“It’s nothing, it’s nothing.” I smiled nonchalantly, then placed my hand on Yamada Maya’s shoulder. I could feel the softness and elasticity of Yamada Maya’s delicate body as soon as I touched her. However, I didn’t do anything too much, just helped Yamada Maya up from her bent-over position.

“Thank you.” Yamada Maya was a little shy. She usually only interacted with girls at Is Academy, and it had been a long time since she had been in such close contact with boys. In addition, she had a rather gentle personality, so it was inevitable that she would be shy.

While I was interacting with Maya Yamada, Charlotte and the others’ battlefield was also changing. They discovered that the potion’s strengthening effect did not disappear instantly, but was continuous. They could all feel their bodies and abilities gradually increasing.

“Wow, teacher, this potion is amazing!” Cecilia, who had been feeling the changes in her body, was so surprised that she didn’t know what to say. Houki Shinonono and Charlotte nodded in agreement.

Now that some time has passed, the three of them have made significant improvements in strength, agility, and stamina, which has given them more confidence in fighting the green leopard. With improved teamwork and greater strength than before, they have gradually turned the tide and overcome some of their disadvantages.

Meanwhile, Maya Yamada in the monitoring room also noticed this and stared at the monitor screen in disbelief. Not only had she been fully revived, but she also had a buff. This was just too overpowered.

This situation became even more exaggerated after another ten minutes or so. Yamada Maya opened her small mouth in surprise, looking like she wanted to say something but was worried about how to say it. Watching her small mouth open and close, I really had the urge to shove my penis into her mouth.

Why is Yamada Maya like this? It turns out that Charlotte and the others’ situation has changed drastically. The three of them can now go toe-to-toe with the Green Leopard, and even have a slight tendency to put pressure on him. How could this not surprise Yamada Maya?

Charlotte would slash with her sword, and as the green leopard narrowly dodged, Cecilia would shoot at its joints, causing it to lose its balance. Then, Shinonono Houki would finish it off, which usually resulted in damage to the green leopard.

With the green leopard constantly taking damage and Houki and the others growing stronger with each battle, the fight was drawing to a close. The green leopard could no longer evolve, and Houki and the others had almost finished strengthening themselves. It could be said that the mission objective had been achieved.

Charlotte shattered the green leopard’s armor with an uppercut, and Cecilia pressed her advantage, firing a bullet into the limb with broken armor, severing the green leopard’s forelimb. Taking advantage of the green leopard’s unstable descent, Shinonono Houki slashed its abdomen, sending the green leopard flying backward and crashing to the ground.

The three didn’t let this golden opportunity slip by. Cecilia fired continuously, causing the green leopard, who was trying to get up, to fall to the ground again. Charlotte and Houki Shinonono rushed forward at top speed, and the two of them stabbed the green leopard in the head. Both knives were simultaneously plunged into the green leopard’s head.

“Yay, we finally defeated this troublesome robot!” After staring at the green leopard, whose eyes were lifeless and which lay motionless on the ground, for a while, Charlotte happily hugged Houki Shinonono and Cecilia to celebrate this hard-won victory. What made her even happier was the love from her father. Charlotte knew that without him, they could not have defeated this green leopard.

“It seems we should thank our teacher properly when we get back.” Houki and Cecilia were also very happy. At this moment, Charlotte’s eyes darted around, and she smiled slyly, mentioning me.

“In the end, this enemy was still arranged by him. Well, at least he helped us in the end, so let’s give him a small reward.” Cecilia and Houki Shinonono knew that Charlotte was talking about me. Although Cecilia’s tone seemed indifferent, the slight upturn of her lips when she mentioned me betrayed her.

“That’s right, the teacher really helped us a lot.” Shinonono Houki nodded in agreement. At the same time, she also thought that I had been tutoring her for a long time, but she hadn’t had a chance to thank me properly. It seemed that she could take this opportunity to repay me.

“In that case, it’s decided. Now let’s hurry up and finish this task.” Charlotte waved her little fist. Although she really wanted to go back immediately and give her father a big kiss, the task was not yet completed, so she could only speed up and finish the task as soon as possible to go back.

Cecilia and Houki Shinonono had no objections. After a quick check of their equipment, they found that everything was fine except for the energy shield being depleted. So the three of them set off again for the mission location.

“It’s really over. That green leopard, they really defeated it.” Yamada Maya stared in disbelief at the second half of the battle until Cecilia and the others started again. Only then did she react, blinking her green eyes and looking at me expectantly.

“That’s right, really.” I calmly patted Yamada Maya on the shoulder, looking very serious. See, do I look like I’m lying to you? Besides, the facts are right in front of you.

“That’s amazing.” After confirming it several times, a feeling of joy welled up in Yamada Maya’s heart. She was really happy for her students. Seeing their significant progress, Yamada Maya was overjoyed, and in her excitement, she hugged me, who was standing next to her.

The first thing I could feel was the amazing softness of her breasts, which made me marvel at how real Maya Yamada’s large breasts were. Her delicate fragrance was also very alluring. Her voluptuous body leaned against my chest, instantly making me feel hot all over.

“Um, sorry.” Of course I wouldn’t refuse such a perk, so when Yamada Maya finally realized what was happening, she hurriedly let go of me, her cheeks instantly turning as red as a ripe apple, making me want to kiss her.

“It’s okay, I was just excited for a moment, I understand.” I’d love to come more often if there were benefits to be had, why would I mind?

“Alright, the students have almost finished their tasks. I’ll go prepare now, and I’ll leave the supervision to you, Mr. Yamada.” From what I can see on the monitor, the faster students are already finishing their tasks. I need to go outside and wait for them to return and hand in their assignments.

“No problem, leave it to me.” Seeing me turn and walk out of the monitoring room, Yamada Maya breathed a sigh of relief. Honestly, what was I doing just now? I actually went and hugged a man. How embarrassing!

I returned to the location where the mission was issued to wait, and also to retrieve the defeated robots. I can repair them and reuse them, so they won’t go to waste.

While I was fiddling with the robot retrieval, a team had already returned, but it wasn’t Cecilia and her two companions. This was because Cecilia and her group had spent significantly more time fighting the Green Leopard than the average student, so even if they rushed to the mission location at top speed, it wouldn’t have been as quick. Moreover, there were actually more than one wave of enemies, just not as strong as the Green Leopard.

“Teacher, we’ve completed our mission and are back.” At this moment, the energetic trio of girls appeared in front of me. Although they had some bruises, they still radiated cheerful smiles, which made me want to pat them on the head.

“Well done! You’re the first team to complete the mission, you deserve praise.” After patting each of them on the head to confirm the mission, I let them go inside to change out of their gear and wash up. There were also special drinks I had prepared for them to recover. As soon as they heard about the magical and delicious energy drink, the three students ran inside excitedly.

Next, students gradually returned. Cecilia and her group arrived after about half of the team had returned. They appeared to have suffered more casualties than I had seen in the surveillance video, as they must have experienced two more battles after that.

“Teacher!” Charlotte’s purple eyes lit up as soon as she saw me, and she rushed towards me. Seeing this, I had no choice but to open my arms and hug Charlotte, who was like a swallow returning to its nest. Because of the armor, I couldn’t fully feel the girl’s beautiful body, but the girl’s sweat and fragrance mixed together were enough to make my heart flutter.

However, there were still some students around, so Charlotte didn’t hold on for long before letting go. At that moment, Cecilia, with a slightly jealous expression on her face, and Houki Shinonono also came over.

“Here, these are the items needed for the mission.” Cecilia handed me a metallic briefcase. Seeing that Cecilia looked a little jealous, I reached out to pat her head.

Because there were other people around, Cecilia felt a little embarrassed if I touched her head, so she tried to avoid it, but in the end she couldn’t escape my grasp. My hand gently stroked her soft golden hair. Cecilia, who was initially a little resistant, suddenly blushed and lowered her head for some reason, letting me do as I pleased.

“Houki, you’ve worked hard too.” At this point, her relationship with Houki Shinonono was at most that of good friends. It was inconvenient to do anything intimate, especially in public, so she could only offer a verbal compliment first.

After I gave the three girls a brief compliment, they went back inside to clean up. After all, other students were coming to hand in their tasks, so they couldn’t stay too long. I watched the three beautiful girls go inside and then continued to wait for the students to return.

“The students have basically all registered.” I looked at the task registration form and nodded in satisfaction. Although some groups failed to complete the task, the enemies I set up were inherently quite difficult, so it was expected that some teams would not be able to complete it. As long as everyone gives their best, that’s fine.
