Chapter 5
Lucas woke up late the next morning.
The reason? A certain veela came in his dream and caused him to have nightfall.
He looked down at his member that was still completely erect. Already seven inches at 14. This has to be abnormal, right?
But what was even more abnormal was the fact that he could not remember the previous host getting a hard on, like ever. He was always… soft.
'Something's fishy.'
Living with Veelas, not getting a boner, is that even possible? Did the previous owner have a questionable sexual orientation?
Lucas had many doubts, but then a memory popped in his head that cleared his doubts. From time to time, the previous owner is made to drink some sort of potion after reaching puberty.
It all made sense now, why could they leave a pubescent boy to take care of their beautiful daughters.
'Damn…'
But to not be able to get it up, the previous owner had it rough. Lucas did not know if it was cruel or merciful though.
The previous Lucas was a pussy. Even if he felt sexual desires, he would have never been able to satisfy them on a real woman.
Fortunately, whatever explosion he had gone through in the woods, it seems to have cleared all signs of the potion from his system, as evidenced by the healthy erection he is sporting right now.
'I'll have to be careful with this,' Lucas decided.
No matter what, he has to at least make sure that the bitch Apolline doesn't find out that he is no longer under the influence of the potion, lest she kicks him out of this house, or worse, have him ingest the potion again.
Lucas looked down and realized that his member was still standing up straight.
'What to do with this now?'
Remembering the dream which was the cause of this, he sighed. Now Fleur is bothering him even at night.
'Focus!'
Lucas shook all dirty thoughts out of his mind. It was the third day since his transmigration and today, he had decided to start working out. His body right now is a weak and skinny mess, and he intends to make it better.
Putting on some clothes and shoes, Lucas went running. Last night, he had to stuff himself with plenty of healthy, protein-rich diets. Now it was time to make it reach the right places.
People in his previous life would try to stay fit even when the most difficult physical work they'd have to do in their lives would be climbing or running to catch a leaving bus.
In this world, you can literally get hit by random curses just for annoying someone, and everyone is walking around carrying potentially lethal weapons called wands.
Lucas decided that increasing his strength and stamina was the top priority right now.
He first ran around the perimeter of the mansion, passing by the Greenhouse, the pool, and the Garden with various beautiful magical flowers.
The air he breathed was extremely fresh, and the weather was pleasant, neither hot nor cold. He had to admit, it was a nice place to live, at least in terms of comfort and aesthetics.
Unfortunately, his run couldn't last long as he got tired very quickly. But he was still surprised by how much better it was compared to the previous day.
With the current state of his body, he shouldn't even be able to do this much.
He ran till his feet gave out, after which he began doing stretches and HIIT, targeting all the muscle groups one by one.
He also measured his current stats: he could run around 1000 meters, do one push up and 3 knee pushups, 6 squats, 5 bicycle crunches and so on in one set.
Pitifully low, right?
But it's still much better than yesterday, when he got tired after barely a minute of dodging Fleur's spells.
By the time he was done, he felt like dying. His whole body was aching and his lungs were on fire, inhaling oxygen like there was no tomorrow.
But he was filled with happiness hormones. The concept of being able to boldly challenge his physical limit without fear of backlash, and the knowledge that he progressively get stronger brought him a feeling unprecedented hope that never existed in his past life.
After a rest he repeated the routine again, after which he dragged his aching feet back to the Chateau. Going into the servant's bath, he prepared hot water and soaked himself for a long while.
Another thing he noticed was that he could recover very quickly, with little to no muscle pain. After drying, Lucas looked at himself in the mirror.
Yesterday, he could see all of his bones clearly outlined due to lack of muscles and fat. He didn't know if he was tripping, but today, the outline didn't appear to be as pronounced as yesterday.
All these peculiarities were making Lucas perplexed.
'Is this normal?' He wondered yet again.
Since he had a sick body in his previous life that didn't improve no matter how much he tried, he wasn't very familiar with how exactly it worked, though he was pretty sure it isn't usually this fast.
'Maybe it's just a Magical World thingy,' he decided, before putting on some clothes.
As he came out of the bathroom, he ran into Apolline, who seemed to be waiting for something.
"Vivienne, where are you?!" She called out.
Fortunately, it seemed like she hadn't noticed Lucas yet. Lucas tried to quickly slip away, but—
"Lucas." Apolline seemed surprised to see him, but then the same distasteful look settled on her flawless face.
"Well, someone is up early today. Are you really the Lucas I know?" She jabbed sarcastically.
'Actually, I'm really not.'
"I'll wake up early from now on, mistress."
Apolline seemed to have nothing negative to say to that. "Well, since you are here, you might as well prepare the bath for me. Vivienne is nowhere to be seen."
Lucas inwardly sighed as he went into the main bathroom, the one used by the mother and daughters.
It wasn't his first time entering the place since he had done the same thing for Gabrielle and Fleur, but he still found the bathroom to be quite a luxurious place.
Beyond the translucent screen was a bath akin to a swimming pool. The floor was made out of beautiful veined marble and the walls had the coating of shinny French oak.
Lucas walked past the translucent screen to turn on the silver faucets, which were built in the shape of birds. Apolline stepped in after him, coming to stand on the other side of the screen.
"Remember, some lavender, some bathing oils, hot water mixed with moderate amounts of cold," she said, beginning to take off the clothes.
!!!
"Y-Yes, I remember," Was she fucking serious? He could see her from this side!
While the bath filled in, Apolline slowly took off her clothes, making her the blurry outline of her lithe figure visible through the translucent glass that was now covered with steam. It seems that she didn't really care if he was a boy or not due to the potion.
Lucas had to adjust his clothes to hide the reaction he had popped up in his pants. Very soon, the bath was prepared, just as Apolline stepped out from the other side of the glass.
Fortunately, or unfortunately, she was wearing a bathrobe now, though it was extremely short, like the one Fleur was the day before yesterday.
Lucas didn't need to be told to fuck off. He left before his reaction could be seen by Apolline.
Before leaving though, his head automatically turned to catch a glimpse of her shapely figure stepping into the water, but he left as soon as he saw her head turning in his direction.
Lucas hadn't walked for long before he was stopped again, this time coming face to face with the twins again.
Lucas tried walking past them, but two spell hit him from behind, one hit him in the back while the other behind his feet, making him fall.
"What the hell?! Didn't I warn you two yesterday?!" Shouted Lucas in annoyance.
Ruby slowly walked up to him, putting her heel on his head.
"So, it wasn't a coincidence. You really have grown a backbone, huh?"
Under ordinary circumstances, Lucas would have enjoyed the view of her long legs and red panties visible through her short maid-skirt. But right now, he was in no situation to do so.
"Release me now, or I'll tell Gabrielle, and Miss Fontaine!"
"You're annoying," said Violet, clicking her tongue.
She flicked her wand and his mouth of seal shut, making it impossible for him to shout for help.
'Damn it, they're serious!' Lucas realized that he should have already shouted for help.
But, he's never been in a situation where two beautiful girls would tie him up, so he hadn't been able to process the fact that he was in actual danger right now.
Ruby removed her leg from his head and crouched in front of him.
"Now, tell me, how did you become dumb enough to stand up to us? No matter what, you're just a squib.
"No one would favour you over us. We're honor students of Beauxbatons. Don't you see that?" Asked Ruby, jamming her wand under his chin.
"All I see... is a red camel toe!" Said Lucas.
??
Ruby was confused at first but then she followed Lucas's line of sight that was directed under her skirt and gasped at his sheer audacity.
And in that time, Lucas snatched the wand right out of her hand and turned her around, hooking his arm around her neck and poking her cheek with the wand.
Surprised, Violent raised her wand, but Lucas hid himself completely behind Ruby, not letting her have a clear shot.
"You two need to get it through your head. Messing with me has consequences."
"Let me go right now! Cough—" Ruby struggled to free herself, but she was caught in a very compromising position, being held in a sleeper choke. In that posting, even without having any strength, Lucas could still hold her down easily.
"Merde! What is happening here?!" Demanded Miss Fontaine, arriving at this moment.
Lucas let go of Ruby, who quickly scrambled to her feet, turning to look at him furiously. Violet opened her mouth to answer Miss Fontaine, but she closed it back, not knowing what to say.
They were bullying Lucas?
She can't outright admit that, it would get them punished.
Lucas was bullying them?
That was even worse. They were sixth year Beauxbatons Witches, highly gifted in magic and professionally trained in dueling.
Was a 14 year old squid, skinny and frail Lucas giving them trouble? Yeah, they'd rather commit suicide before they admit that.
"We were just playing Miss Fontaine," said Lucas, pulling his leg out of the rope that was binding them.
Miss Fontaine looked at the twins in fury. "Haven't I already told you guys not to bother him? And Lucas, you have to start telling me when they bully you," she said as she waved her wand and the ropes vanished from Lucas's legs.
"We–" Ruby tried to argue, but realized that she couldn't say it was the other way around. "We really were playing, Miss Fontaine."
So, she just agreed with Lucas's story as she got up, dusting her jiggly butt, and Violet nodded, agreeing with her.
"Lucas, we'll play later," She said to Lucas as she picked up her wand and left, Violent following behind her. Around the corner, she gave Lucas a 'you're dead' look before she left.
Miss Fontaine came forward, helping Lucas up as she checked him for injuries. "Are you alright? Have they done this before?" She asked in concern.
Lucas shook his head and laughed. "I'm fine. We really were just playing. Didn't you see? I was holding down Ruby. That wouldn't have happened if it wasn't a game."
Miss Fontaine looked at his sunny smile and finally believed him, breathing a sigh of relief. "Then I'm reassured."
But then her eyes widened. "Oh merde, I was in a hurry!"
"I've already prepared the bath," said Lucas, making her stop. "Oh, you did? You're such a sweetheart."
Miss Fontaine hugged him. "Mistress Apolline hates tardiness. I shouldn't have stayed up till late last night."
"It's no big deal, Miss Fontaine."
As they walked in together to prepare dinner, Lucas's eyes turned cold, thinking about Ruby and Violet.
It was his fault. He should have seen it coming.
He had failed to notice just how bad Ruby and Violet actually were.
They were severe bullies and had a high superiority complex.
When their victim lets them do anything for a long time and then suddenly starts to show signs of resistance one day, it doesn't occur to them that the victim would really be able to do anything.
Instead, it only angers them due to the fact the person who is below them actually tried to fight, prompting them to double down on the bullying.
Just like that, Ruby and Violet know that Lucas is a pussy. He could have complained so many times in the previous days and never did. So, they just have to remind him of his place.
Still, they shouldn't have done that.
Lucas didn't care what they did to the previous owner. But he will simply not tolerate this.
Simply telling Miss Fontain was not an option.
Yesterday, when he encountered them, he had just transmigrated, and didn't know that he wasn't actually a squib. Now, things are different.
Ruby and Violet were going to pay, but not by him complaining to Miss Fontaine or Gabrielle. No, that was letting them off too easy, and they'd only repeat their actions.
He is going to have to teach them a more permanent lesson.
…
Lucas stood in front of Fleur for their next training session.
Today, Fleur was wearing shorts and a sports bra, giving him an even more arousing look of her bombshell figure.
Fleur studies him with narrowed eyes before nodding. "You're not scared today as well."
"Scary is not the word I'd use to describe you," said Lucas.
Fleur fired a stunning spell on him and he dodged.
"You are better prepared too." The corner of her mouth curled up as she started the volley.
Today, she was going completely chantless, meaning the spells were much more unpredictable and her casting speed was higher.
After dodging a few times, Lucas got tired and missed a step, causing him to be hit by two stinging hexes back-to-back before Fleur stopped.
"Get up," she said, waving her wand.
"Wait!" Said Lucas, raising his hand. "This is not fair. You are using your wand while I have no weapon. Do you also expect to fight in real battles like this?"
"Of course not! I was just–"
"Just practicing your aim at a live target? I think you've done that well enough. How about practising with an opponent that can fight back?" He asked, his gaze went to the swords stored in the shelf.
Fleur raised her eyebrows. "Are you serious?"
Lucas shrugged. "Are you scared?"
A light sword was swept up from the shelf, falling in front of Lucas. "Pick it up."
Lucas didn't need to be told twice. As soon as he picked up the sword, Fleur fired another spell. He tried blocking it with the sword, but of course he missed.
He had to resort to dodging yet again. But now, while getting out of the spell's path, he would also try to catch it on the sword.
After a few attempts, he actually got one, causing a grin to spread on his face. Fleur didn't seem to like that though, since she fired a series of spells at once.
One landed on the floor, another he avoided, but before he could see the third, the floor turned slimy, causing him to slip.
The third spell hit him as he fell.
Fleur twirled her wand, looking down at Lucas with disdain. "Don't get too cocky just because I've been going easy on you."
She sighed, firing another spell at Lucas. "Why couldn't you have had this improvement before. We could have moved on to actual practice."
But Lucas remained motionless, even as he was hit by the spell.
"Lucas?" Fleur's brows furrowed. "Hey, get up!"
She quickly jogged over to check for injuries. "What happened to you now?" She asked, prodding him with her toe.
But at this moment, Lucas moved. He turned around and grabbed onto her ankle, and then pulled.
"What–?!"
Caught off guard, she went down without resistance. Instantly, Lucas climbed over her and hit the wand that was about to fire another spell, sending it flying.
With the wand gone, he pinned her down, straddling her while holding her wrists. "I win," he declared.
"What–No! This is cheating!" Exclaimed Fleur, struggling to break free.
"How is this cheating? If you aren't prepared for surprise attacks, then maybe you aren't ready for the tournament."
"Let me go already, you squib!"
Lucas was about to let her go, but he stopped when he heard that. "I won't, if you call me that."
Fleur widened her eyes, as if unable to believe his daring. "You saw what happened yesterday. I'm not a squib," he said.
"That must have been an accident," the veela denied, still struggling. In the process, her perky derriere rubbed against his hips, inevitably causing a reaction.
"You have a wand!" Apparently, Fleur also felt it. And coincidentally, her reasoning for the erection was exactly the same as her sister's.
Lucas was momentarily distracted, and she took advantage of it. Freeing her wrist with a twist, her hand reached directly for the 'wand' in his pants.
Of course, what she gripped was something else entirely.
"Wait–"
Before Lucas could stop her, she had already gripped this wand, causing him to jerk instinctively.
But Fluer wasn't as innocent as Gabriel, as she immediately understood that what she gripped was a wand that was used to shoot a different kind of magic.
She let go immediately and rolled away, rubbing her hand on the floor in disgust.
"I thought you were on potions?" She questioned sharply, her crystalline cheek now sporting a healthy flush.
'I'm dead.'
Lucas knew it was probably over.
"Yeah, it seems that they wore off."
Her nose wrinkled in disgust. "I'll get Miss Fontaine to make you another one immediately," she said, standing up.
"Wait!" Lucas immediately pounced on her, pinning her back to the ground. "Hear me out first!"
"I didn't use to… feel like myself when I was on potions! And… my reactions were also dull!"
Lucas managed to churn out these responses while trying his best to suppress Fleur's struggles.
Her strength lessened when she heard those words, the gears turning in her mind.
"Didn't you notice? I have been different in the past few days! I have been a better training partner to you! My reaction speed is better, and I am also no longer afraid of the spells!"
"You are… indeed quite different," she admitted, deep in thought.
"Aren't I? If I go back on potions again, you'd miss a willing and capable training partner! Do you want that to happen?"
"But… you will be affected by the allure."
"I seem to be immune to it. Aren't I normal for the past few days?"
"Connard! How is this normal!" She exclaimed, trying to move her lower body away from it.
Connard is French for asshole.
It was only then that Lucas realized that his package was directly parked between her valley.
Fleur's sudden movement caused friction between the two sensitive organs, and slightly high pitch gasp escaped her lips while Lucas's wand throbbed a few times instinctively, as if having found a target.
"Wait! I'll get off!"
Lucas was already tired, and his skinny body couldn't really hold on much longer. With the way Fleur's powerful thigh were moving, he could sense a very painful crotch kick coming if the veela continued to struggle.
Lucas slowly let go and Fleur immediately backed away, covering her private area with her palm.
Fleur's sharp gaze landed on the tent in his breaches, causing Lucas to in turn cover himself.
"Believe me, this reaction is not due to the allure! It's a normal reaction any male would have if he has close contact with a beautiful woman! It will not make me impulsive!"
Fleur was silent for a long moment, looking down at Lucas's private area. "Alright, but you need to listen to me. Or I'll report it right away."
'As if I had a choice before.'
"Deal."
Fleur nodded. "Alright, take off your pants."
"... What?"
