https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/22/ Ice Lily pried open my lips and pushed the ice cube between them. It must have been melted in her mouth because it was smaller than I thought. The inside of my mouth chilled down as the ice turned to water on my tongue. With each drop of water trickling down my throat, the … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 22 →

https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/21/ Contract I knelt in front of Lily as she was still sitting in her chair. My body naturally moved that way without her having to order me to do so. Lily put her hand on my cheek and stared into my face. "You have such a pretty face." "Not as pretty as Lily-san's." "Flatterer." … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 21 →

https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/20/ Pass It's now the third day for our role-specific training. So far, I have done nothing besides practice my twerking. I do have a couple dances in my back pocket that I learned from my grandma, but none of them are able to buff my allies in a battle. So the fact that I'll … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 20 →

https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/19/ True Intentions "Apparently I'm not stopping when I need to during my dance. My coach told me to be 'more aware of when you're moving or staying still'. Could you watch and tell me what you think?" Lily gave me another small nod, but she still looked unsure of herself. She's probably worried about … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 19 →

https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/18/ Instinct With my head buried in a comforter, I only had Lily's smell to stimulate my senses. This isn't a punishment anymore. For me, it is a reward. But what is going to happen? "Stretch your legs." I straightened out my legs like I was told to. The comforter was quickly rolled up, stopping … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 18 →

https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/17/ Question Naturally our destination was Lily's room. I heard the lock click behind me almost as soon as I walked into the room. Lily took a seat on her bed by herself. Since she hadn't given me any instructions yet, I stood in the doorway and simply waited. "What's the matter? Come here." I … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 17 →

https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/16/ Thief The five of us came together in the bathroom. Earlier, we watched from the shadows as the nobles took a bath together. "What are we doing here?" Ran's already formulated a plan in her head, but she hasn't shared it with us yet. "We're going to confiscate all of their underwear." Everyone looked … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 16 →

https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/15/ Food Waste As soon as I returned to the dorms, I was taken by Melia and dragged to the dining room alongside Peony. I lost my way racking my mind around who I would dance for and didn't get back until late, but Melia was still there waiting for me. Peony was pretty annoyed, … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 15 →

https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/14/ Role Model I learned my dance wasn't terrible since it had an effect on Melia which gave me some confidence. I practiced some more on my own in front of the dorm mirror before heading over to see Rose again. I have a newspaper reporter with me today. She is a young girl, and … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 14 →

https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/13/ Experiment Melia ran up to me with a worried look when I came back to our room after leaving the infirmary. "Lily-chan! Are you okay? Is there any pain?" Melia checked all over my body for any injuries. She also pinched my upper arms once or twice which was a little weird since I … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 13 →
