Getting spoiled in a woman dominating world

*tap* *tap* Brandon and Eira were hurriedly rushing through the Academy halls.

Eira, her blonde braid swinging with each stride, shot Brandon a sidelong glare, her lips twitching in frustration "Idiot, idiot, because of you... we are late for the team combat examinations."

Brandon smiled dryly as they quickly jogged "Don't worry, we can catch up."

Eira's eyes narrowed, her pace quickening as she weaved around a group of second-years "Don't you have some other time to... do things with Sister Ravene?"

"if we docked points because of this, I am gonna kick you."

She shot him a final look, before they reached the training hall entrance and quickly entered the room.

Holographic projectors embedded in the ground pulsed faintly with their lenses ready to sculpt entire battlefields, while large mechanical emitters lined the walls, humming with the potential to generate physical constructs that mimicked real-world opponents.

Several instructors stood at the front and one of them, a tall woman with short silver hair and blue eyes, stepped forward.

The Ascendant class was already assembled, as they formed loose groups near the arena's center.

Lee Haeun looked at Eira and Brandon stepping in and raised an eyebrow "Cadet Eira and Brandon, both of you are late. Care to explain?"

Eira gave a faint nod and replied "Sorry, Instructor Haeun. We… got held up in the research wing. It won't happen again."

Brandon smiled faintly "My fault, Instructor. Got distracted by some fancy tech."

Haeun's gaze condensed and she gave a nod "I suppose you two can form a team... others have already formed teams."

Brandon turned to look at Elena, who was waving her hand enthusiastically while standing near Calistra.

He nodded his head "Yes, Instructor Haeun. We two can form a team."

Nodding her head, haeun turned to look at everyone "As a reminder, the team combat examination tests your synergy against low-tier C-rank Aberrants and supporting D-ranks."

"Coordinate, adapt, and neutralize all targets within five minutes. Failure to do so will cost you points. Understood?"

"Yes, ma'am."

---

"Cadets Eira and Brandon, your turn," Haeun announced, gesturing to the arena, her tone carrying a hint of expectation after their yesterday performances.

"Step forward and prepare for the team combat examination."

Eira's heart skipped as she retrieved her pistol from her bracelet.

The arena flickered and the holographic projectors surged, transforming the chamber into a dense forest.

Towering trees loomed overhead, their canopies blotting out the artificial sky, casting dappled shadows across a forest floor thick with moss, roots, and scattered leaves.

Vines draped from branches, swaying in a simulated breeze, while patches of mist curled through the undergrowth.

The emitters hummed and three C-rank Aberrants Stalkers with panther-like constructs, along with armored plates and glowing green eyes, were flanked by five D-rank Aberrants.

Haeun's voice crackled through hidden speakers "Neutralize all targets within five minutes. Coordinate and adapt. Begin!"

Eira darted to a massive tree, its trunk wide enough for cover, and scrambled up its roots, perching on a low branch to gain a vantage point.

Her green eyes scanning the forest, tracking the D rank aberrants skittering through the undergrowth.

"Kael, draw the Stalkers to the clearing." she called, her thumbs aligning on the Lazara's grip.

Brandon rushed forward, his ring pulsing as he summoned his dual etherblade daggers.

He sprinted through the undergrowth, his boots crunching leaves, and leaped onto a fallen log "On it!" he muttered as he slashed the air, drawing a Stalker's attention.

It roared as its green eyes locked onto him and charged, its claws tearing through vines.

Brandon dodged, rolling under its swipe, his daggers carving a glancing strike across its flank, luring it toward a small clearing where Eira had a clear shot.

Eira's gaze narrowed as she aimed at the two D rank Aberrants scrambling up a nearby tree.

Bang! Bang! Her plasma rounds seared through the mist, clipping one node and missing the other.

Her impact radius was tight... 10.2 cm from her solo exam, but she gritted her teeth at the miss, adjusting her stance on the branch.

The second Aberrant lunged with its claws inches from her perch, but she leaped to a higher branch and fired, hitting its node.

In the clearing, Brandon faced the first Stalker, its armored plates gleaming as it swiped, its tail whipping through the air.

He ducked and slashed its leg node, staggering it, but the second Stalker flanked.

He spun, parrying with one dagger while the other slashed, grazing its flank.

"Eira, pin the D ranks." he muttered, his eyes flicking to the three remaining D-ranks converging from the undergrowth.

Eira nodded and a blue glint passed through her eyes as she activated Gravity Vortex.

WOOSH! A large blue rune materialized on the forest floor beneath the three D ranks.

The air warped, crushing the aberrants to the ground, their screeches turning to frantic clicks.

She raised her pistol and fired three shots from her perch, hitting the three D ranks, instantly killing them.

Brandon seized the opening, diving under the first Stalker's claw to slash its neck node.

The second Stalker roared, but he vaulted onto a low branch, using it to spring toward a vine-draped tree.

He swung and slashed his blade mid air carving into the second Stalker's back node, staggering it.

"Eira, neck node on the first." he muttered as he looked at the third Stalker circling the clearing, its green eyes glinting through the mist.

Eira leaped to a higher branch as she aimed at the first Stalker, its neck node pulsing red beneath its plates.

'Breathe in… aim… exhale.'

Bang!

The shot hit the node and the Stalker roared, its form destabilizing.

She fired again finishing it, its body dissolving into static.

"One down!" she shouted, her heart soaring at their seamless teamwork.

The third Stalker charged toward Brandon, its claws tearing through a tree, splinters flying.

He rolled and parried its slashes as he drew it toward Eira's line of sight.

The second Stalker recovered, flanking him, but Brandon slashed his dagger, hitting the second's leg node, slowing it.

"Eira, vortex the third." he glanced at her and poke as he dodged a tail whip.

WOOSH! The rune appeared beneath the third Stalker, crushing it mid-charge as its armored plates creaked under the force.

She aimed and hit two shots to its neck node.

"Third's gone!" she shouted, leaping to a fallen log, her boots skidding slightly.

Brandon closed on the second Stalker and its movements are sluggish from his earlier strike.

He feinted, drawing its claw, then spun, and his daggers slashed in a cross-combo, hitting its neck node with pinpoint accuracy.

"Graagh!" The Stalker roared, and he finished it with a spiraling slash as its body dissolved into static.

The forest fell silent and the simulation ended with a chime as the mist and trees flickered back to the neutral arena.

The screen above flashed: Team Score: 94/100, Synergy: Exceptional, Time: 1:35, Evaluation: Outstanding Coordination, Elite Target Prioritization.

Eira jogged to Brandon as she high-fived him, her chest heaving with adrenaline "We crushed it, Brandon."

Looking at her smile, Brandon let out a chuckle and replied "You did exceptionally well, Eira."

Hearing his praise, she nodded her head as a shy smile appeared on her lips "You too..."

The evening sky was painted with streaks of crimson, gold, and deepening indigo as the sun dipped toward the horizon, casting a warm glow over the backyard of the house.

A pair of chairs and a table sat beneath a faded awning.

Brandon was sitting on the chair with Elize sitting on his lap.

Elize's thighs straddled above his thighs as her simple cotton dress rode up slightly to reveal the smooth curve of her legs.

Her hair, which was loose from its morning ponytail, cascaded over her shoulders, catching the golden light.

Elize's lips pressed against Brandon's lips as she hungrily kissed him.

She sucked on his lower lip, savoring the taste of him and the warmth of his mouth.

Her hands tightened around his neck, her fingers threading through the dark hair at his nape, pulling him closer.

Brandon reciprocated with equal fervor, his hands gripping her waist, his fingers digging into the soft flesh beneath her dress, pulling her closer until there was no space left between them.

He deepened the kiss, his tongue exploring her mouth.

A bit later, he pulled back slightly, his lips brushing hers in a softer kiss, then trailing to the corner of her mouth, her jaw, and the sensitive skin of her neck, eliciting a soft gasp from her.

"Elize…" he murmured against her skin, and his hands slid up her back, tracing the curve of her spine through the thin fabric of her dress as he pressed another kiss to her collarbone.

Elize's breath hitched, her head tilting back to give him better access, as she surrendered to the sensation of his lips on her skin.

His hand went down, squeezing her thigh as his fingers traveled up to her inner thigh.

She let out a giggle and spoke "This... kinda feels right. Being with my boy like this."

Brandon raised an eyebrow in amusement "Is that so?"

Elize pinched his lips gently, her fingers brushing against his mouth as she nodded "Yeah... this feels great."

His gaze lowered, his eyes drifting to the soft curve of her chest, barely concealed by the thin fabric of her dress "Well, it would be better if you could.. ahem..."

She noticed his gaze and a teasing smile appeared on her lips "Does my boy want to see Mom's breasts?"

He nodded his head shamelessly, and seeing this, her eyes crinkled with affection "Bad boy, lusting after your own Mom like this..."

Tilting her head, she replied "Well, obviously I can't remove my clothes out here... but if you want..."

She leaned forward and whispered "I will let you slip your hand in and grope them. You are my darling after all..."

Upon hearing this, Brandon couldn't help but chuckle and she kissed him, giggling against his lips.

"Kael..."
