The Anime Trope System: Stone vs. Viper, #8 a LitRPG (ATS) Read online

  “Not now,” he whispered. “The others—oohf.”

  Her tongue curled around his horn and the blowjob took over. Arousing a fully adult hellhound monster girl. Clyde shouldn’t have expected anything less. She didn’t stop there. Matsume laid him back, ignoring his attempts to reason with her and quietly, but wildly rode, as if she was sex starved for years.

  It finally ended when she convulsed. He quickly covered her mouth until she finally relaxed and laid on top of him. Sensing that he didn’t release yet, the lust returned to the woman and she remounted, juices oozing.

  “Aren’t you satisfied?” Clyde whispered. “I really should get out of here, before the others start to get suspicious.”

  Natalia’s blabbing finally stopped, conclusiveness at the end. If she left, he’d have to come out of the closet. The problem was…

  “Never,” Matsume whispered, riding harder. He almost burst, but strained to hold it in, not willing to impregnate the woman or make a mess all over the closet. He put strength into wrestling the monster girl off him, as well as zipping his pants and fixing his uniform.

  “Can this not wait until we get home?” Clyde said.

  “Oh,” Matsume said, sense returning to her. “There are plenty of empty rooms I could pull you into.” She licked his neck. “Still, why wait when the closet is more fun?” He sighed then listened for Natalia’s “ciao.” It didn’t come. She sat on a desk, awed and adored by the other girls. Seth and Toru snickered. Yusuke sighed.

  “Where’s Clyde?” Alice said.

  “He probably left, dudette,” Seth said. “Doing leader stuff and what not.”

  “I doubt he’d bail,” Chika said. “You guys completed most of the signs.”

  “We’ll be fine until he gets back,” Toru said.

  “He obviously left to take a leak,” Yusuke said to Clyde’s relief. The sensible man with the most convincing lie. Stars seemed to emerge in Chika’s eyes, causing the young man to frown. Matsume attempted a rape, but he held her back with a single hand. She pouted.

  “I’m going to step out and make a phone call,” Chika said. Alice sensed her bullshit right away.

  “Oh no you don’t!”

  Alice chased the silver-haired girl. Natalia, to his relief ran after them, her trailing words being,

  “There’s no way I’ll miss this! I’ll get to see pervy-nii’s pee-pee.”

  Clyde felt like killing himself at the embarrassing comment. Instead of laughing, Toru, Seth, and Yusuke cringed.

  “I swear, Clyde’s going to prison,” Yusuke said.

  Clyde quickly wrestled Matsume to the floor, pinned the horny woman, then tied her up using rope made from his Energy Materialize skill.

  “It will despawn shortly,” he said softly. “Now go back to your nap.”

  He made sure everything was smooth uniform-wise then smoothly exited the closet.

  “Do you understand why I had to hide?”

  The others’ faces were blue, mouthing, “you fucking idiot.”

  Natalia, grinning evilly, anime-dove into the young man, her spot from behind the door…not so obvious from his closet angle.

  “Pervy-nii really, you’re terrible at hide and seek,” the loli said, snuggling into him. “No one saw you leave and your three idiot friends are terrible liars. Especially dummy-ninja.” She stuck her tongue at Yusuke, soliciting a glare. “At least lemon-head sounded more convincing.”

  Seth shot the loli a blank stare seconds after Toru did.

  “One job,” Clyde said to the men. “One job and you—”

  Natalia almost kissed him, but his mystic senses allowed the man of nature to move in time. And six of their classmates were watching, eyes wide.

  Clyde laughed sadly and softly, attempting to pass the ordeal as a joke.

  “All of the gym training improved my reflexes.”

  This fucking loli’s going to get me arrested, he furiously thought while glaring daggers at her.

  “Onii-chan,” Natalia said. “You promised to…deflower—”

  “Alice,” Clyde said as he bolted out the door. “Help!” The loli chased him.

  “She’s going to end up pinning him one day,” Toru told Seth and Yusuke.

  “How will he explain the situation to the cops,” Seth said, laughing. “Rapey loli keeps sexually harassing him.”

  Yusuke whacked him on the head.

  “Are you still going to take us to whatever place you had planned the other week?”

  Seth grinned.

  “Are you sure you two can get away from your girlfriends?”

  “I’ll pass,” Toru said.

  “Oh come on,” Seth said. “Fine, I’ll just ask Ashard.”

  “Is he still here?” Yusuke said.

  “He’s at the palace,” Seth said. “I think he’s leaving on Sunday. Natalia still needs his help with something.”

  “Replacing me at the first chance you get,” Toru said, feigning hurt. “I see how it is.”

  Seth shrugged.

  “Where we’re going will have a lot of girls. You wouldn’t be able to face your sweet, sweet Fumi anymore if you go.”

  Toru rolled his eyes.

  “I’m a busy man.”

  “Ashard it is, then,” Yusuke said.

  “What are you idiots talking about?” Kitome said, barging in between them.

  “Nothing,” Seth said. “If you want to know, then transform right here—”

  Toru and Yusuke winced as Kitome punched him in the gut then delivered a formidable German suplex.

  The other girls in the class shook their heads or sighed, silently declaring that the idiot pervert had no hope.

  Episode 41 (Part 4)

  Sato Academy…

  Clyde stepped outside into the evening for some refreshing cool autumn air, a can of hot coffee in hand. He decided now was a perfect time to address delayed prompts and buy something from the weekly ID Store. Hopefully, he’d get something game-changing.

  [Current declared fiancée(s): Melody]

  [Quest: buy Melody a ring or something that symbolizes your proposal. This quest is mandatory and cannot be refused. The priority set is to: ASAP.]

  [Congratulations for using your head and accepting Melody’s soul-oath. Your next step is to set a wedding day. You could always follow the traditions of Melody’s home world. Get her pregnant first then have the ceremony the next day. Keep in mind that it is not like a human wedding.]

  [Your fiancée, Melody’s current mood: heart-fluttering happiness.]

  [Melody has fallen head over heels in love with you.]

  [Base HP and MP bonus from Melody: +100%]

  [Perk bonus on hold until you marry her: *Tier 0 skill: Soul Illusion*. You will be literally invincible for 3 minutes; however, your attack will be down by 20% unless you invoke Mystic wrath. Warning: Tier 0 skills will drain an enormous amount of MP at once. Be wary of that when combining it with another MP drainer such as Mystic wrath. ]

  [In Melody’s world, a fiancé is called the Soother.]

  Clyde spit out his coffee like a dragon breathing fire. SOUL-OATH MEANT FIANCE? He gulped, pacing, heart pounding. He wasn’t ready for this.

  [Your readiness for this is currently at 101%]

  You evil system , he angrily thought.

  [Ahahahaahahaa]

  Why was the universe’s AI so… Clyde let the thought drop. He planned to give himself at least a year to think about it and weigh it against the chances of being thrown back into his timeline as Mortem promised. Just because he was growing into the power of a god didn’t mean he was the most powerful.

  Was that why Melody was practically all over him earlier? He wiped the blood from his nose. If he was being honest with himself, he’d—the young man shook away the perverted thoughts. Think, Clyde, think.

  [If you attempt to “undo” your soul-oath, you will be given an instant game over.]

  I wasn’t thinking of undoing it, you evil system, Clyde thought. Truthfully, he j
ust wanted to process everything. Melody knew about the girls and their feelings—they discussed it, clean and briefly. Yet, she took the head-jump over his life mate, Chika, and even Harumi. But why didn’t she explain the soul-oath to him?

  Could she be waiting for the other women? Clyde just didn’t know, except that Melody was his fiancée.

  Mom, it seems like I’m getting married, he thought. Ironically, society on Earth always demanded a wait period, which he believed reasonable. If you still had strong feelings after a few years, then she had to be “the one.” In Satovia, that logic was bullshit and ignored.

  His plans were to get all the relationship levels to at least closer level ten and in love first. How could there be a marriage without actual love?

  [You are still on the right path for this; however, that won’t stop any of the girls from getting a proposal out of you. Due to not learning much about the realm of your fiancée, you accepted a proposal without a second thought. Congratulations. It is wise to be confident about your harem. +20 to charisma and intellect]

  System, I’m going to kill you , he thought. Why didn’t he receive the prompt asking for an answer like it did with Ming?

  Melody clouded his thoughts. The sweet smell of goddess-grade perfume, strawberry panties, her blushes—he wiped the blood from his nose again. Stupid nosebleeds.

  Her personality was just adorable. The young woman proved time and time again to be reliable, even during the Nezerath raid when she ripped through his mansion’s barriers like tissue paper. Smart, sweet, strong, and also clumsy, pure, a hopeless romantic—he still didn’t forget her daydream—the young man realized that he didn’t mind the early proposal.

  He still felt like Alice should’ve had this first…But did it matter? Not really.

  Seeing that it was pointless to get angry at the system, the young man accessed his ID store, available to him every Thursday. This would allow him to purchase potentially awesome, broken, whacky, or completely stupid items. The system forced most of his choices by selling many items at unreasonable prices, while having one specific item discounted.

  [Items available: Ass blaster 4000 (4.2T). Book of infinite sex positions + weird ones (99T), Sun drip potion (24M), Loli whistle (905T) Super Health Potion (1200), Super MP Potion (1250), Recipe of Love (50,000), Ultra Super mega special awesome equipment set (250 quadrillion), *Book of telekinesis*. (10M).]

  He thought about buying the Sun drip potion to compliment the Moon variant he owned, but decided to go with the book of telekinesis. His mind played all of the super hero shows that featured telekinetic heroes doing epic shit. This would be a nice feat to add to his power pool. Astral projection and telekinesis! He’d be feared in no time.

  [You have purchased Book of telekinesis!]

  [Balance remaining: $ 61,255,400]

  He wasted no time using the item. As it glowed and burst into a million golden sprinkles, he knew.

  [Congratulations, you’ve unlocked the telekinesis magic line.]

  [You’ve learned Telekinesis- Object control level 1. You may move small objects through telekinesis. This skill has 3 levels. Practice and EXP will strengthen it.]

  Clyde aimed a hand at the trashcan ahead. With just a thought, he made it rise into the air.

  “This is hilarious. I can’t wait to level this thing up.”

  He sat the trashcan back down. A girl, he believed was Misaka went pale then hurried back into the school. “Ah, she saw that.” He shrugged. Nothing he could do there. She was pretty cute though.

  Clyde saw Harumi walking out of the building. Smiling, he waved at her to join him.

  “Why are you out here alone?” she said.

  **

  Miles in the air….

  Tessa’s spirit beast, a giant eagle with snow-white feathers and piercing gold eyes, soared against the cold winds. With just an hour or so left on the trip, she couldn’t wait to get into a nice, warm bath. Maybe have a cheat day, order pizza. Watch this world’s shows, which were all anime to her. She thought of the old world for just a second then snapped the mental lid as if it contained a wild animal. She let go of Earth some time ago. Satovia was her home…

  If it weren’t for the Viper, she’d be a queen. Golden statues would’ve been erected in her name. She’d lead her people into an age of awesomeness. Maybe.

  Still, what was her purpose for being the Wind? Lady Venus seemed to direct her toward a heroic path. It also felt like she prepared something for the Stone. What did she mean by this trip being weird?

  Episode 41 (Part 5)

  Sato Academy….

  Early evening….

  Clyde loved talking to Harumi. Thanks to fighting by her side in many life or death situations, he overcame the need to accidentally look at her breasts during a conversation. He always maintained eye contact. Well, he became a master at doing both.

  Harumi’s interests were wide and vast, but her passion for being a chef outshined them all. His own overall goal to save this planet and end the stone-viper games for good felt too large for a conversation. When the system announced the territory ordeal, the idea of being a ruler came to mind. Sure, politics sucked, but the government let demons roam free to devour humanity and now teamed up with the Yazuka. What a fucking mess.

  “How long do you two plan to laze around?” Kitome snarled from the door.

  The duo hopped from the bench, laughing as they hurried to join the others.

  A couple of hours later, Clyde could see everything coming together as stand after stand was erected around the school’s track.

  Somehow Seth and Natalia were in charge of the footraces and games. Clyde just knew they were going to be ridiculous. Sazuki oversaw the process of all construction, except the stage. Most of the girls gave it no more than a passing glance, but the guys. They definitely knew the plan.

  Despite everyone working together on such a beautiful evening—starry skies and slightly cool breezes—there was a rivalry brewing amongst the classes. Class A acted superior to everyone, starting off the division. Soon following up was B and D. Clyde’s own class eventually left the “no fucks to give” zone to join the war. Team Stone didn’t seem too interested, but the young man couldn’t help but overhear one of the bets.

  “If we win, you’ll have to fork over your Team Stone members to our class,” some rich girl said then did the unthinkable. The rich anime girl laugh with the hand gesture and all. “Ohohohohoho.”

  “Yeah, Class C will be winning this one,” Clyde said. He knew damn well that the wealthy asshats would pull strings and ruin his class schedule.

  “Kun, kun, I smell fighting spirit.” Ruri wagged her tail. “It makes me want to try that howl Natalia keeps bugging me about.”

  “Ruri—”

  “Awooooooo!” the hellhound howled, gaining Clyde’s blank stare. Fortunately, she wasn’t loud, and no one paid attention to them, other than Naomi, who walked toward the duo.

  “What’s up Naomi?” Clyde said.

  “Hi, uhm, Harumi needs you,” she said.

  “She didn’t just text,” Clyde said.

  “Her battery died,” Naomi said. “I told her I’d relay the message.”

  “Are you headed out?” Clyde asked.

  “No, I’m taking pictures and assisting my class,” she said.

  “You smell really tired,” Ruri said. “Are you sure you don’t want to rest?”

  “Smell?” Naomi said looking at her in confusion. Seconds later, it hit her. Since the blush was cute, Clyde let Ruri off the hook. “I’m sure everyone’s tired.”

  Clyde decided to say the old cliché anime line, which was true in most cases. He doubted the journalist would listen without his insistence.

  “Don’t push yourself,” he told the green-haired girl. She smiled.

  “I won’t.”

  He didn’t get the chance to watch her walk away—Ruri was all over him.

  “Clyde, you shall treat your hellhound princess waifu to some meat.” She
placed her hands on her hips, looking pleased with her declaration.

  “Since you didn’t ask nicely—”

  “Pleeasee,” she said, teary, holding onto the young man.

  “You don’t need my permission to—” He halted his words, instantly realizing that he…was Clyde, not some dense buffoon. Sheesh, what was with him? It had to be the awe of knowing that his upcoming marriage included a super-hot goddess. “If you want to eat together, just say so.”

  Ruri blushed.

  “I…you know, never had a mate. No guys for friends. So I don’t know how.”

  “You ask the same way as always,” he told her.

  [Talent, main character stuff: Head pat.]

  He didn’t trigger that, but went with it. The hellhound melted into it, her tail wagging faster.

  “Let’s finish this up here first,” Clyde said, “then we’ll eat afterwards. Do you see how hard everyone’s working? Let’s not be the slackers. Tomorrow, you’ll be able to eat as much as you want.”

  Ruri’s tail wagged faster.

  “Ooh, I can’t wait. Awooo!”

  “Okay, let’s squash the howling thing,” Clyde said.

  “Party pooper,” Ruri said.

  Clyde felt a tap on his back. He turned to see Airi, dressed in a casual skirt, smiling at him.

  “Since you convinced me to stay, are you going to ask me to marry you like in the movies?” she said jokingly.

  “Maybe,” Clyde said.

  “He’s going to marry me first,” Ruri said, then giggled. “So, what do you think of our setup so far?”
