Okay. Okay. So that didn't go well. She hadn't been prepared for his great big... What do you call that? Heroism? Over the top attitude? Idiocy? Categorising this was a waste of mental energy, the real goal was getting him hooked on her body as soon as she could make it happen.
Alright. So. All future plans must take into account his extreme nature, and accommodate accordingly. Which presented a major problem. This was the kind of guy you practically had to pin down and sit on before he understood you wanted sex, and the second she tried that she'd open up the company to a liability lawsuit on the grounds of sexual harassment. HR would get involved - it would be a whole thing.
Once, down in the Abyss before this job Mayoko gotten involved with HR once. It was not something she wanted to experience again.Especially after she'd learned that the Abyss had been involved in training roughly half the HR departments in the human realm.
In other words she needed him to come onto her to avoid improper office conduct, but at the same time he wouldn't come onto her because she was his boss. In all honesty she was half considering throwing on a disguise and meeting him outside of office hours for a quick fling, and then go from there - but no. No, she'd been up here long enough as it was to get into this damned position, she wasn't throwing it all away at the first sign of difficulty. She was close to him. She was in his life. It might not happen right away, but she would wear him down. Over time. Hopefully before her son knocked up some human bimbo - problem for later, focus on the mission!
Her new plan was a simple one. It was a classic. She'd accidentally trip into his lap while he was sitting at his desk, and accidentally smother him with her boobs. Then, she'd apologise and strut off - then bend over to pick up a pencil that she'd dropped. Due to the position of his monitor in his office, she'd set it up so that he'd see the reflection even if he wasn't looking. It would be a slow burn, but if she kept on making him aware of her body, aware of what she had going on, he'd break sooner or later no matter how stupid or - whatever his deal was - he happened to be!
"How are you finding things?" she asked in as husky a voice as possible while still being cool as a cucumber and leaning against his door frame. She sipped from her cup of water, fresh from the water cooler and made ready to step into the room. Let's see now. Three steps into the room should be enough. She'd spin around right about there, spill the water down her top and then hello marshmallow hell! It was perfect. This was her speciality at Succubus School, she'd even written a dissertation on it.
One thing she hadn't counted on, though. Was him sitting at his desk. With his shoes off. Using his hands <i>and</i> his feet to type on the keyboard. At the same time.
"It's going well!" he said. "So far I have thwarted five major security leaks, and had ascertained another ten. They too shall fall before the hour's end - no, the next half hour. My honour demands no less!"
Ugh... Why... why was she so wet all of a sudden? Hearing him talk like that did things to her that shouldn't be done so easily to a succubus with her experience. Maybe it was because she'd been out of the game so long? A-Anyway! She couldn't pull her trick off with him sitting like that, she'd break his legs! Besides which, fixing that many security issues... that was kind of hugely important.
"Alright, now that you've finished your three o'clock flirting attempt, it's time for your meeting with the manager from the Kyoto branch."
Right, of course. They were here to discuss - Ack! Someone stepped out of an office and made her spill her water all down herself! Ooh! Just what she didn't need at a time like this!
<hr>
This might come as a surprise but humans, as a whole, are both incredibly smart and incredibly dumb. It's often quite hard to tell which category a given person falls into, but talk with them long enough and you can usually figure out that they're incredibly dumb.
Regardless. Keeping things stable in a world full of supernatural beings wasn't an easy thing. The age of rationality had done wonders for humanity's safety and development. Letting them know at large that monsters lurked among them would unsettle that order. Which is why The Order existed. To monitor. To keep track of things that go bump in the night.
And oh, there were many of those running around. Vampires, ghosts, otherworldly spectres of all flavours and variety. Cults, wannabe warlocks, fanatics that took their religion a little too seriously (even by the standards of a fanatic) and unlocked something magical they really ought not to have... Oh yes, all manner of factions existed within the human world as regards the supernatural, and so far as The Order was concerned only one thing mattered. Keeping the peace. Keeping the masquerade. That hadn't actually been the phrase they had used ,by the way, until a certain company released a certain role playing game. It had been so... Apt and appropriate that they appropriated it. Couldn't help themselves.
Enter Kashiko Sora. From the day she could understand the concept, she had known she had been destined for greater things. It had been foretold. Before her twenty fifth birthday, she would be part of a call to arms. One of those who would assist a hero in saving humanity from... something or other. It was a bit vague on the what. Or the why, or the how. What mattered was that she would be one of three destined who would stand by him and give vital assistance as he saved the day.
That destiny had led The Order to move her into this position as an executive for this company. A few mind altering spells here and there, and she was in. Unfortunately... they got the branch wrong. Right company, right time, but the wrong place. Well, she was here to rectify that. If she could. Apparently the hero had started working here today... but that was all the information they had.
The door to the office opened up, and in walked the prettiest woman that Sora had ever seen in her life. A stunning, curvaceous woman who looked like she had been poured into that office dress. An effect somewhat amplified by her damp cleavage.
"You must be Kashiko Sora. I've heard quite a lot about you."
"Likewise," Kashiko said to the woman in front of her. Well, that was truer than probably expected. Naturally, The Order had done a background check on everyone that worked at this office. In the case of Yoshifumi Mayoko it was fairly simple: Single mother with a playboy son. Long standing working relationship with the company who ascended quickly through the ranks, nothing worth noting here.
"Well, best if I'm off then," said the secretary. Who was a woman that Kashiko honestly couldn't say she knew much about, but Sora had a theory: An undercover succubus trying to seduce the hero to the cause of Darkness. That had been warned about in their prediction, and it wasn't hard to imagine the hero going for someone with that kind of personality.
It would be much better for the world if the hero wound up with Mayoko, in her opinion. A stable career woman with a good head on her shoulders. Give her son a father figure to look up to, someone who could reign him in a bit... Exactly what the boy needed in her mind.
"So, it's good to see you come up from Kyoto branch," Mayoko said, pulling up a seat and wiping herself down from a towel that she had retrieved from... somewhere. It was rather difficult for her to focus on anywhere but the woman's chest. My goodness. "How are things going over there?"
"Perfectly fine," Sora said. Then... she realised a fatal flaw in the plan. "We should be on target for our... Ahem."
The fatal flaw was quite simple. Something obvious, that she should not have overlooked. In all of her planning for this meeting, in all her attempts to set up her position, there was one thing she hadn't found out: Exactly what it was that this company did.
"Yes, of course," Mayoko smiled. "You've not had any problems with the - "
An ambulance with its siren blaring drove past outside.
"No, no problems at all," Sora said, internally screaming at the timing of that ambulance. She had to think. There had to be some way around this. Some way to find out what this company does! "What about you? Do you require any assistance at all with your projects?"
"Well, our -" a fax machine went off with surprising loudness " - Is running a little behind, and our - " a plate broke from the next room, and somehow completely drowned the woman out " - Might not hit the deadline, but we're working on it."
"I... see..." Sora said. She coughed politely into her hand. Then she looked outside, gasped, and said "Oh my goodness, is that King Kong wrestling Ghidora?"
"Where?!"
While the other woman was paying attention elsewhere, Sora quickly cast a soundproof spell on the room. There! No external sounds, no sirens, no plate crashing, no employees yelling, nothing would interrupt them now!
"I'm terribly sorry, that must have been the aurora borealis. I always get them confused."
"The aurora borealis?" Mayoko asked. "This time of year? In this part of the country? Located entirely above the Tokyo city skyline?"
Sora nodded. Mayoko shrugged. "I suppose we all have our quirks. Now, I was hoping you might be able to help me isolate this one problem we were having with -"
Suddenly a burly muscular and extremely… manly… man swung in through the window, somehow opening it from the outside and landing squarely in between the two women while also holding a writhing King Cobra in both hands.
It's a funny thing. For all of her life Sora had held back from the pleasures of the flesh. She'd been holding herself back for the fated hero for all of her life. Some had warned that this would result in some... peculiarities in her sexual life further down the road, but one thing was absolutely certain.
“This is what happens when you let a stoned middle schooler write your website!” He shouted.
If she was certain of nothing else in her life, she was going to somehow have a threesome involving the other two people in this room. Probably after she uncovered and vanquished the succubus secretary.
- Sora begins plotting to get these two into bed.
- Meanwhile, Seji's influence on the girls at school starts to freak him out a little.
- Atsumi attempts to train Seji to make him a better hero. Makes him a better incubus by accident.
- Later that night Mayoko collapses onto the couch, thoroughly exhausted by her failed seduction attempts.
- Out of nowhere a villain shows up to menace our hero, starting him on the path!
- Something else
Wonderful continuation.
ReplyDeleteA suggestion: it feel a bit unexplained that Kashiko believes the secretary to be a succubus, maybe give a sentence or half on why she believe that.
