Hell's Academy

Chapter 109: Night Time Training

"Alrok and Howard get along really well. I don't like him," Harley tapped her foot impatiently. It was a few hours before midnight and she was getting a little bit worried.

Monica and Reece had decided to let her and Howard sleep together tonight with them staying in a separate room. They'd probably only stay up talking, and kiss a little bit. However, she couldn't help but feel her heart rushing faster and faster. 

Before she grew her horns, she regularly snuck out to bars with a fake id to try and meet an older man. Her parents regularly left for the weekends and got home late at night. She felt abandoned, and just wanted something to fill the void of her heart. 

She figured if an older man let her stay in his apartment, she'd be able to find love, even if it meant getting in over her head. However, no matter how many bars she went to, it seemed like no man would approach her. Thus, she was surprised Howard didn't seem to notice her flaws. In fact, he looked at her like she was just a normal girl. Her personality usually scared people away, however, Howard was even stranger than her! He literally asked every girl he met to sleep in his bed! 

"Howard, please don't fall for it. I've seen men like Arlok before. He's trying to get something from you." Harley stretched and lied down in the bed. "I'll give him 20 minutes. If he's not here then, I'll just go to sleep."

"Hey Howard. You're so strong now! I'm scared," Alrok tossed Howard a gift with a smile on his face. "I got you this fruit in return for the Night Lotus. If you eat it, you'll wake up tomorrow feeling like the king of the world!"

"Heh, thanks Alrok. However, how did you find me? How did you know where I was?"

'Well, Nellon told me the Sixth Station almost got destroyed by a Founder, so it wasn't too hard to figure out!' Alrok thought and laughed merrily while looking at Howard. He obviously wouldn't dare tell him the truth and instead made up a story. "Ha, It's simple! We have a bond! I could find you anywhere! How are things going with the girls?"

"Is that important?" Howard nervously smiled and laughed. He put his hand behind his head and couldn't help but think of Harley's embrace. "I-I I want to talk about the Alliance! Barabin told me that I have to learn to be in charge! State your terms!"

"It's simple, Howard. We'll discuss it in the morning," Alrok pointed at the mountains in the distance. "However, I promise, there will not be a single thing in the Furnace we will not be able to claim when the Horned and the Mocralin join together! I can't wait!"

"Heh, I got to go," Howard turned around, sensing the lingering eyes of Harley reaching out for him from his room. He felt his heart beating faster and faster. He'd never slept with Harley alone and he couldn't wait to grab her with all his might. "You want to meet tomorrow by Relonton Mountain right?"

"Yup, just if you really want to be a leader, you should come by yourself." Alrok smiled and pointed at the box in Howard's hand. 

He'd handed Howard a Sun Intoxication Orange. It was a fruit about the size of an apple that smelled really sweet, but caused lethargy. If Howard ate it, he'd spend the next week feeling like he was dreaming. However, the best part about the Sun Intoxication Orange is that it looked exactly liek a Night Lotus Fruit!

He imagined Howard would eat the fruit immediately tonight, and expect to wake up in the A rank. Thus, when he came to meet him, he'd be easier to slay than a low class zombie. A feeling of joy appeared in Alrok's heart. He couldn't help but smiled and pat Howard on the back.

"Ha, well, go get some rest! That girl's hot! I'll introduce you to my wife tomorrow. You'll love her! She's really muscular!" Nellon turned and walked into the darkness before he said one final thing. "However, Howard, you might want to eat that fruit before you go to bed with her! I promise it will have good effects!"

Howard smiled and nodded his head before he turned and walked back into his room.

Harley feigned sleep on his bed, but could sense Howard's eyes tracing up and down her body. She had on a black dress, and had the most beautiful smile with her eyes shut tight. He traced her curves before he slowly skulked into the sheets of the bed. Smiling as he put her hand against her waist.

"Harley, are you sleeping?" Howard said with a smile, gently touching his lips against her beautiful pallid skin. Underneath the moonlight, her skin almost seemed to shimmer in Howard's eyes. Her beautiful pink lips gently moved up and down with her beating chest. He could even feel her smiling as he gently tucked her into his embrace. 

"Because if you're not, we have a lot of training to do."

"What kind of training? What did that loser ask you to do?" Harley opened one eye and crossed her arms. She was upset that Howard took so long to come to bed. "I thought he wanted an alliance. What was that about wanting to meet you alone tomorrow. I don't like him."

"Heh, he wants me to eat a fruit that he got me, but I can't! I'll just tell him I did tomorrow!" Howard smiled and rubbed his nose against Harley's nose, and gently moved down to her lips. "Now, I want us to train at kissing tonight! I feel like I owe you for earlier."

"That-that sounds like fun," Harley pushed her lips into Howards and let the heat of her body spread into his. She hugged his torso and smiled gleefully as he tucked her in his embrace "However, mmm, how much… practice have you had?"

"Too much!" Howard smiled and shut her eyes before continuing his pursuit of her lips. "Enjoy it okay? Tomorrow is going to be an insane day. I might even have to kill someone."josei
