--- Forest Dungeon Level 1 - A few hours earlier ---

A slim girl with slightly green skin leaned out from behind a tree and looked at a group of people who were fighting against two goblins and a big old tiger. She had been hunting it, but unfortunately, before she could lead it into her trap, the tiger attacked the group of humans, and she could only watch as they fought with her prey.

Resigned, she wanted to back off and look for another target, but then her gaze stopped on a man who had fallen to the ground. That was him. The man from her dreams. She stood frozen with her bow in her hand, not believing what she was seeing.

For the past week, every night she had the same dream--she had dreamed of a young man, a human man, with whom she had traveled through the forest. They had talked, but no matter how hard she tried she could never remember about what. When they had finally reached a small lake, he had stood in front of her, brushed back her green hair from her face, grabbed her chin, and connected their lips in a long kiss.

He pulled her petite body to himself, pressing her against his muscular frame, and then their kiss became more intimate. Ultimately, they fell to the ground and had passionate sex, but she had always woken up just as she was about to orgasm.

Every night she woke up aroused, with memories of this man. A human man. It was unreal, as she had never had sex before, and she had never seen a human up close. She had only seen them from far away, always careful not to risk fighting against them. They were always in a group, and she couldn't tell how strong they were, so she preferred not to take the risk and instead hunted wild animals.

She had never seen a human from close, yet in her dream, she saw his face in every detail. And at that moment, he was there, getting up from the ground to immediately jump in front of the tiger, which was preparing to leap forward.

Instinctively, she created an arrow--it flashed with her green nature magic--and she was already lifting it to draw her bow but didn't make it in time, as the tiger jumped on him. He managed to block the beast but lost his weapon. Fortunately, two of his friends jumped forward and attacked. He grabbed a new weapon from another girl and rushed to fight a goblin.

She stood there between the trees and watched him fight--he wasn't fast, and it didn't look like he was hitting hard, but he certainly knew how to use his sword. She knew that she shouldn't be there, that she was alone, and these people were six, and additionally, one of the girls, light-haired, was extremely fast and a serious threat.

The girl knew that she should back off, that she should leave, and she would have done so long ago if only she could take her eyes away from that man--the man from her dream.

When the humans won the fight, they collected their loot and talked. He was the closest and had turned his back toward her, but she was too far away to hear anything. In her dreams, she couldn't even remember his voice, and finally she had a chance to hear it.

Against all reason, she started to move closer to him.

She heard his manly voice, deeper than any man in her village. She couldn't understand what he said, and she wanted to get even closer. Suddenly, she snagged a branch of the bushes she was hiding in.

He turned quickly, but she crouched in time, hiding in the bushes. Her clothes matched her green skin and hair, allowing her to blend into the surroundings.

His face turned toward her, she had much better look at it, but she already knew it well from those moments at the lake. It was exactly the same as in her dreams, and she wondered how it was possible as she was certain that she had never seen him before.

The bright-haired girl stopped next to him, and they talked briefly, but the hiding girl couldn't understand a single word. She remained without moving, hoping that they would not notice her. The human woman stood there with her daggers--she was too fast, and running away would be impossible. The forest girl knew that she wouldn't escape if they noticed her.

When the pair of humans turned away, she breathed a sigh of relief. She still remained in place, observing them, this time not risking getting any closer. After the people that she watched finished their conversation, they started travelling through the forest.

Her instinct told her that she should get back to her home, but she didn't know if she would ever meet him again.

Memories--very vivid--of what he had done to her in her dream made her feel a need inside herself, one that she knew only he could satisfy. In the end she followed after him with her eyes focused all the time on him.

The man that she watched, turned around a few times, looking toward her, as if he could feel that she was there. However, his eyes never focused on her when she was hiding in the bushes or behind the trees. Even though she knew it was a horrible idea, she regretted that he had never noticed her.

The group of people reached one of the entrances to another world. The girl immediately noticed treants that stood by the portal. She watched the group carefully, worried that they might fall into a trap.

She considered shooting an arrow at the monsters by the portal to warn them, but before she could make a choice, the man from her dream pointed at the trees.

When his friends shot their missiles, she realized that he had also noticed the treants and smiled, impressed by his knowledge and perceptiveness. The group of people had a fire mage with them, and a shiver went through the girl's body as she saw the flames engulf the monsters. They killed them without trouble and collected their loot.

After a short talk, which she couldn't hear because she was too far away, they started to wander, staying close to the entrance, and she realized that they were looking for more monsters.

When one of the other men, with a sword, passed a third time by the group of camouflaged lizards, she decided to help them. The next time someone got close, she shot her magic arrow near the monsters, scaring them away and making them run. The humans noticed them without a problem as they started to move, and the monsters rushed at them.

It seemed that they would defeat them without trouble, as the light-haired girl killed the first lizard with one hit, but then the shorter girl with a shield got bitten. The forest girl frowned, knowing that those beasts were venomous.

The fight ended moments later, but the wounded girl looked like she was about to pass out. The man of her dreams held her, then passed her to the other two. A moment later, they were running toward the entrance and vanished into it.

The girl stood there, staring at the black stone that led to an unknown, alien world, and she realized that the man of her dreams had just vanished--and she would never meet him again.

Unless he visited her again in the forest bed of her dreams. A strange feeling of loss filled her, but she decided to return to her village, knowing that being so close to the portal was too dangerous, especially when she was distracted.

--- Asher Montgomery ---

Ava ran out of the room. Asher wondered why she was acting so weird, but he also needed to talk with Elara.

"El, that comment about Sebastian and Tiff--"

"I'm sorry, Asher, okay? I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said it."

"Elara I'm not doing anything behind your back and we agreed on this whole harem thing."

"I know..."

"Do you regret it now?" Asher asked.

Elara stared at him in silence, trying to process her emotions and what she felt.

"I don't think so... I don't know, Asher," she said, frowning. "Right now? No. But I'm scared that I might regret it tomorrow, or in a week, or a year. Who knows? This isn't a normal relationship, and... and I have no idea what I have gotten myself into. I don't know what I was thinking..."

Asher himself felt lost, trying to put it all together--new people, a new place, exploring, and changes in their relationship.

"We are in it together, El. Whatever happens, we are together. And we will handle it, okay? Nothing will change that. No woman will come between me and you. I promise that everything will be good and that you will never regret it."

Elara slightly nodded and kissed him, but their kiss was short, as Asher's phone pinged with a new message.

He pulled it out and looked at it for the first time since he had gotten back from the dungeon. He unlocked his screen, and when he saw what was still open, he immediately pressed it to his body.

"What was that?" Elara asked, looking at him. With her head on his arm, she had seen his screen too.

Asher felt his cheeks blush. "Umm... Rachel sent me some... encouragement to make sure I would return from the dungeon," he said, then pulled his phone from his body to show Elara the photo Rachel had sent him.

"Do you like it?" Elara asked.

"She's attractive, and the photo really emphasizes it," he said, trying to be honest.

"I wasn't asking about her," Elara said. "I meant the photo. I've never sent you anything like that before," she added, watching him. "Do you want me to?"

"I'd love that. But only if you want to," Asher answered, grinning.

Elara nodded and looked back at his phone. He closed Rachel's photo and saw that he had three new messages, all from Madelyn. In the first one, she had asked almost an hour ago if he had left the dungeon already. The next one was ten minutes later, asking him to write to her when he did. And the last one was a minute ago, asking again if they had left already.

"I will invite her to talk, okay?" Asher asked Elara while writing his reply at the same moment, letting Madelyn know that he was fine.

Elara nodded, hugging him as he texted Madelyn.

"She will be here soon," Asher said, putting his phone back and hugging Elara.

"You really did well today," Asher said. "I know that you are strong and fast, but those monsters didn't have a chance against you."

"It's all thanks to you, Asher. Without your upgrades and boosts, I wouldn't be so fast or so strong."

Asher nodded, knowing that it was true, but on the other hand, he had only given her statistics, and she was the one fighting, the one dealing the damage. Those stats were helping, and she had them thanks to him, but in the end, she was the one killing the monsters.

"The whole team with your boosts and the first-level dungeon is a joke, not a challenge," Elara said. "We will see what boosts other women get, but if you could bring them to my level, then we could quickly go for the bosses."

"We need to be careful not to jump in too soon if we start feeling too confident."

"I know, Asher, but with your boosts, we for sure don't need to reach the recommended fifth level. Your skills are worth much more than those few stat points or upgraded skills. Much more."

"Let's first focus on completing a team," Asher said.

Elara nodded. "Fine," she said, then brushed his neck gently, shifting her lips over his skin until they met in a kiss.

Asher's phone interrupted them again. Madelyn was outside, and Asher went to let her in. He opened the door, and Madelyn stood there in her standard, too-big clothes.

"Hey," he said.

"Hey," she answered.

Asher was glad that nothing happened to her, and he wanted to hug her. However, he stopped himself, unsure if she would be comfortable with that.

"Come in," he said.

Madelyn walked into the living room and greeted Elara. She sat where Ava had been earlier, and Asher joined Elara. The three of them started talking about their explorations. At first, it was awkward, but after a brief moment, they all relaxed, acting as they had before Maddy had opened up to them.

Asher was glad that it was like that--especially since Madelyn had said that morning that she wanted to get her old life back, to live normally again. He decided to be there for her when she needed him, but otherwise, treat her as he always had, giving her the space to live that normal life as his friend.

--- Asher Montgomery ---

After talking about their explorations with Madelyn, Asher knew that time was getting short. He and Elara were set to meet with Rachel in the evening, and they still needed to talk with Tiffany, Naomi, and Sam about his class. He sent a message to Tiffany, asking her if they could meet and discuss something.

She replied immediately, that she was available the whole day. To not prolong things even further, Asher decided to get it done as quickly as possible. He and Elara said goodbye to Madelyn and walked to the library, where they were supposed to meet Tiffany.

The library was deserted--there was literally no one there. No one thought about books and learning after they had just finished their first explorations. Asher and Elara found Tiffany in a secluded part of the library.

Tiffany had her head lowered, her hair covering part of her face, her arms sagging as she sit slumped, and she stared at her hands, which she held on her knees. Asher had the impression that she looked sad. Together with Elara, he approached the table and sat in front of her.

"Hey, is everything alright?" Asher asked.

"Yeah," she replied quietly.

"We need to tell you about something," Elara said.

"I know," Tiffany answered, whispering.

"What?" Asher asked, surprised, wondering how she could know, as there was no way she could have found out about his class unless Ava or Rachel had told her.

"Don't worry, I understand. I didn't do a lot, and I got myself wounded..." Tiffany wanted to say something else but stopped and closed her mouth, lowering her head.

"Wait. Wait, what are you talking about?" Asher asked.

Tiffany wrinkled her forehead slightly. "You don't want to explore with me anymore. Because I'm too weak," she whispered. "It's okay, I understand. Maybe I will find a new team for tomorrow. Or I would skip one day. I know that I'm not as strong as Elara or Ava. I thought that I would manage better, that maybe somehow I could handle it, but I know that--"

"Tiffany," Asher interrupted her firmly. "It's not why we want to talk with you."

Tiffany looked at him, frowning.

"N-No?" she asked, surprised.

Asher sighed. "No. We want to create a team with you, and we want to go to a dungeon with you tomorrow. It's... You should know something," Asher said and paused.

He realized that there really wasn't a good way to explain this. 'Listen, we want you on our team, but there is one condition. You need to suck my cock every day, and you will be fine.' Asher frowned as this thought came to his mind.

"Asher has some kind of special class," Elara spoke instead of him. "I'm so strong thanks to it."

Tiffany glanced at Elara, but her gaze quickly returned to Asher. He felt his cheeks warm. "It's a really weird class," he murmured.

"It's Harem Master, and the name is quite literal," Elara said. "To use skills on you, he will need to add you to his harem, but he can also upgrade your class and give you completely new skills."

Tiffany stared at them with her eyes wide open.

"That's true," Asher added. "But if you join us, you don't have to do anything. You won't be obligated to anything, but you just have to know that our team... won't be quite normal."

"How... How does it work?" Tiffany asked.

"To add you, I need to kiss you."

Tiffany averted her gaze, with her cheeks blushing slightly.

"Then I will be able to boost you. I have a skill that can grant you ten points in any stat for ten minutes," Asher said.

"That's... That's a lot."

"And he gave me new skills," Elara added.

"New skills?" Tiffany repeated, staring at Elara, but then her gaze returned to Asher.

He sighed before speaking. "One of them allows her to deal an additional thirty damage in a single attack, and the second one grants her ten points in agility for around three to four hours, but..."

Tiffany averted her gaze from Asher.

"There are additional conditions for using these skills--of a sexual nature," he explained.

There was a moment of silence in which Asher waited for Tiffany to process everything he had told her.

"Are--are you joking?" Tiffany asked quietly.

Asher shook his head.

"Does Ava know?"

"She already joined."

"And you and her?" Tiffany asked.

He felt his cheeks blush, but nodded.

"And if I join, then..."

"You won't have to do anything," Asher said quickly. "You don't even need to become a member."

"Oh..."

There was a moment of silence as Tiffany avoided his gaze.

"You don't need to answer now. We just wanted you to know before our exploration tomorrow."

"Do Naomi and Sam..." Tiffany trailed off.

"They don't know, but we'll talk to them in a moment."

Tiffany nodded. "So, I... need to think about it," she murmured.

"Of course, Tiff. No pressure, okay?" Asher said.

Tiffany nodded again.

"Just don't tell anyone about this, okay?"

Tiffany nodded, got up and quickly left the library.

"Are you okay?" Asher asked Elara. "You were quiet."

"Now, it's your choice, Asher. I will help you and let you know what I think, but..." Elara shrugged. "You decide now, so you should talk to them. I explained parts when you didn't know how to start, and then it went fine," she added, shrugging again.

Asher nodded, realizing that this made sense, even if he still didn't feel comfortable talking about his class with strangers. And he had to have the same conversation with two more girls he knew even less.

"Okay, now it's time for Naomi and Sam," he said, and they headed with Elara toward the library's exit.

--- Asher Montgomery ---

Naomi and Sam wanted to talk immediately. They had swapped rooms so they could be together, and they invited them there to talk in private.

Asher knocked on the door, which opened immediately, and he saw Naomi standing there. When their eyes met, she closed the door in front of his face. He glanced at Elara, surprised, but the door opened before he even had a chance to speak.

Naomi still stood there, but now with her head lowered. "Sorry, hey, come in," she said and moved back from the door. Asher was still confused but entered the room.

It was exactly the same as the rest of the Academy's students' rooms. It was clean; only a few books lay on the bed or nightstands.

Sam sat on one of the beds, leaning back against the wall, holding her phone in her hand. Naomi approached her and joined her on the same bed.
