Lillith - Chapter 32 - Sidesilvern
**Seraphina stared in disbelief at the group in front of her.**
With her arms crossed, a serious face, and furrowed brows, she couldn’t believe what she was seeing.
“I asked you to select your most powerful students… and you call… your best student, okay… but then you bring two students who aren’t even halfway through the course?!”
“My apologies, ma’am…” Armand replied, standing upright, though a certain discomfort was evident in his gaze.
Seraphina let out a long sigh, running her hand down her face.
“Ugh…”
She remained silent for a few seconds, watching Armand closely, almost as if she hoped he would change his mind just from the weight of her stare.
“I hope you know what you’re doing… I trust you.”
“I’ll bring the necklace. I promise!” Armand responded firmly.
Without another word, he turned on his heels and left the room with the three students following closely behind. The atmosphere lightened the moment the doors closed behind them.
“So?” Celestina asked cheerfully, walking beside Armand and looking at him curiously.
“Then grab your magic backpacks, we’re leaving! Let’s take advantage of the portal room already having a gateway to Sidesilvern.”
Lillith let out a teasing laugh.
“Your balls probably wouldn’t survive another long trip, professor. I wonder how those thieves are doing, huh?”
Before she could continue, Emma yanked Lillith’s hair hard, making the girl stop laughing and try to pull away.
“OW! Emma!”
“Focus,” Emma replied, letting go of her classmate’s hair.
The four continued walking toward the portal room. The hallway was silent, except for the group’s firm footsteps. As they entered the room, they saw a man sitting behind a desk, dressed in simple cloth garments, completely out of place with the school’s usual luxury.
The man adjusted himself in the chair as he noticed Armand's arrival. His eyes widened slightly when he saw who accompanied him.
“Oh, oh, good morning, Mr. Armand!” he said with a rushed smile.
As the students entered, his gaze immediately dropped, shamelessly scanning every detail of Lillith, Emma, and Celestina’s bodies.
“Good morning as well… to the lovely companions…”
Emma rolled her eyes, clearly already used to the portal room operator’s behavior.
“We want to go to Sidesilvern. Can you help us with that?” Armand asked.
“Of course!” the man exclaimed, jumping up with energy and walking over to a circular platform at the back of the room. He began drawing runes and symbols on the ground with an enchanted staff.
“The paradise city, huh? Taking a beach vacation to enjoy the view of these girls in bikinis?”
The comment made the girls huff. Celestina crossed her arms, Emma frowned even harder, and Lillith just shook her head in disdain.
Before they could react, Armand interrupted them, shifting the focus.
“Come on, grab your things. The platform’s right over there.”
They obeyed, walking with determined steps toward the platform.
“This is business. The rest is none of your concern,” Armand said coldly, not even looking at the man.
“Straightforward as always… well, have a good trip. The portal is ready.”
The man tossed a feather into the center of the circle, which disintegrated into light the moment it touched the surface.
Armand stepped in first. Emma followed him. Celestina came right after, face beaming with excitement. Lillith, however, paused for a moment, noticing the man’s eyes still locked on her body.
She turned and walked toward him with a seductive smile on her lips.
“A little thank-you for your service…” she said, approaching with charm.
The man grinned from ear to ear, puffed up with ego, clearly thinking he was about to receive some kind of reward.
That smile vanished the moment Lillith’s knee slammed violently into his testicles.
“OOHHHHHH!!”
The cry of pain echoed through the room. The man’s body crumpled, and he collapsed face-first into Lillith’s cleavage, who merely gave him a light push, causing him to fall to the floor groaning.
She turned without even glancing back and stepped into the portal, disappearing into the magical light.
“Shit… my balls… that’s the third time this week…” the man groaned, writhing on the floor with his hands between his legs.
---
**“Ugh, how can this be? A school this rich, run by a woman, and it still has people like that?!”**
Lillith grumbled as she walked alongside the others, still visibly upset with the portal room attendant.
But then she stopped, blinked a few times, and for a moment, forgot her frustration.
She was finally taking in her surroundings, and what she saw left her speechless.
It was almost like a tourist beach. They were on a wooden structure over the water, well-built and adorned with luxurious details, yet still maintaining a rustic charm. Above, a canopy made of wood and straw provided shade, and a long bridge led to the white sandy beach.
People strolled about, some fished peacefully, while others appeared to be simply using the teleport platforms stationed there. The sea sparkled under the sun, and the breeze carried the light, salty scent of the ocean.
Lillith sighed, enchanted.
**“What a beautiful place…”**
A refined man, dressed in a white suit with light blue accents, approached them with a smile.
**“Good morning! Welcome to Sidersilvern! How can I help you?”**
Armand replied promptly.
**“Hi! We’re here to participate in the Palm Tree Tournament.”**
**“Ah yes, in that case, take the bridge and speak with one of the ladies in green clothing!”**
**“Thank you!”**
The girls also nodded politely as a gesture of courtesy.
They began crossing the bridge, admiring the beautiful structures around them, all in harmony with the local nature. The architecture combined polished wood, enchanted glass, and colorful stones. It was a seaside city that radiated magic and tranquility.
It was, without a doubt, the most beautiful city Lillith had visited since entering the magical world.
As they crossed the bridge, Armand approached a woman in a green uniform. She wore an elegant beret, a dark green blazer, and underneath, a white blouse whose top two buttons were undone due to the volume of her bust.
**“Excuse me,”** Armand said.
The woman turned, but her eyes didn’t go straight to his face. They went down… straight to his pants.
And there, she saw it.
**“Holy shit?!”**
She thought, eyes wide, mouth agape at the clear outline of two round shapes beneath the fabric.
She quickly shook her head, as if to dispel inappropriate thoughts.
**“Sorry—hello, good morning, how can I help you?”**
**“Well, we’re looking to enter the Palm Tree Tournament. The guide told us to talk to you.”**
**“Oh, yes, of course haha… That’s my job.”**
She still seemed a bit dazed by the sight.
**“Well, I’m one of the tournament secretaries! From now on, I’ll be responsible for your group. Please, follow me!”**
The group followed her along a long path paved with magical stones that subtly changed color upon touch. They climbed an inclined road leading to the top of a mountain. From there, the view was indescribable: the vast, glimmering sea, the spiraling streets of the city below, and at the center, a massive stone arena.
They entered the arena's reception, where they were taken to a cozy room with comfortable furniture and flowing curtains.
**“This is my office. Here we’ll do the registrations and preparations! The event will last four days, so I’ll also be in charge of your hotel arrangements.”**
**“Alright, how do we start?”**
Asked Armand.
**“With registration, of course!”**
The woman smiled, handing out forms and pens to Emma, Lillith, and Celestina.
But when Armand reached out, the woman pulled the paper back.
**“Ah, first, I need to tell you something specifically.”**
**“Huh?”**
**“Even though it’s written in the rules, it’s important to say, because some men apparently don’t know how to read: we are NOT RESPONSIBLE for your balls. If you lose one in battle, tough luck. No one told you to fight women.”**
A chill ran down Armand’s spine.
**“Okay, okay, I know, please, the contract.”**
He extended his hand again.
The woman finally handed him the paper, but quickly continued:
**“Also, this is important for all of you.”**
She pointed to a line in the contract.
**“Killing is forbidden! If the enemy surrenders or falls out of the field, the match is over!”**
Everyone nodded, understanding the rules.
Finally, they signed.
**“Great! Now we need to mark you as competitors!”**
The woman extended her hand, and a magical stamp appeared.
It glowed with golden light, pulsing with energy.
She approached Lillith.
**“The stamp uses the user’s mana to create the mark, so we must stamp the spot with the highest mana. Forgive me for this.”**
She pressed the stamp against Lillith’s right breast. Lillith merely raised an eyebrow.
**“Nah, it’s fine.”**
She continued to Emma, then Celestina, repeating the process.
When she reached Armand, he puffed out his chest, expecting it to be there.
The woman looked at him with disdain and almost laughed.
**“The point of highest mana, sir…”**
Armand froze for a second.
**“Huh?!”**
**“Please, the point of highest mana.”**
He knew exactly what she meant. And how risky it was—especially when it involved women…
But there was no choice.
With a heavy sigh, Armand sat in the chair in front of her.
With a tense expression, he shifted slightly to lift himself just enough to expose the area… still covered, but visible enough.
The woman gave a mischievous smile. Ever since she saw him, she had been waiting for this moment.
She raised the stamp with all her strength.
And brought it down with even more force.
The impact was precise and brutal.
The stamp crushed directly onto Armand’s right testicle, vibrating with magical energy as the mark was imprinted.
Even through the clothes, the pain was real.
The mark was now bound to the skin and would remain visible regardless of outfit changes.
Armand let out a sharp sound, trying to suppress a scream.
**“Ugh…”**
**“Was all that force necessary?”**
Asked Emma, crossing her arms.
**“Just wanted to make sure the mark worked, hehe…”**
Armand sat frozen in the chair, sweating cold, trying to pretend everything was fine.
But Lillith and Emma knew.
They knew they’d be waiting at least five minutes for him to recover.

The secretary smiled and approached them with a paper in hand.
"This is a discount coupon exclusive to participants. I highly recommend the Arvaria Hotel—it's the closest to the arena and also the top-rated. A touch of luxury, with the comfort a tournament like this deserves."
"Thank you," Armand replied, taking the coupon.
They left the room and followed the indicated path. The hotel was truly impressive. It had a rustic yet refined architecture that matched perfectly with the paradisiacal environment. The structure used lots of varnished wood, polished stones, and lush vegetation that seemed artistically arranged. The balconies were surrounded by hanging plants, and the walls were adorned with subtle magical symbols and drawings that softly glowed at night.
The room they received was simple compared to the rest of the hotel’s luxury, but still comfortable: a classic solo room with four aligned beds and enough space for everyone to have privacy. The window faced an isolated beach, separated from the public one by a natural fence made of tall trees and a barrier of large stones. Near the sand, there was a small training field with combat scarecrows and magical targets for spell practice.
Seeing the landscape, Celestina’s eyes lit up with excitement.
“Armand! We can train there before the tournament starts!”
But he quickly shook his head.
“No. The recommendation is to save energy now, Celestina. It’s not worth wearing yourself out early.”
The girl slumped a little, sitting at the edge of the bed.
“Okay…”
Armand raised an eyebrow, watching her expression in silence for a few seconds. Then he turned to her and calmly asked:
“Are you nervous about the tournament?”
She nodded, a bit shy.
Armand let out a short, sincere laugh.
“I get it. I was the same during my first big tournament.”
He turned his face toward the window, watching the secluded beach, the sun already starting to set, turning the sand golden.
He stood in silence a bit longer, then clapped his hands.
“Well, in that case… why don’t you clear your mind?”
“Huh?”
He pointed to the beach.
“Look at that sea, right there, just for us. Why don’t you call Lillith and Emma and have some fun? I have to say… ever since I became a teacher, I’ve rarely seen a beach. You girls should enjoy it while you can.”
Celestina looked again at the view, then at Armand, and smiled.
“Alright!”
She got up with energy and left the room, heading to the cafeteria where Lillith and Emma were. Meanwhile, Armand walked slowly toward the sand of the training field. He stopped, extended his hand forward, and closed his eyes, concentrating. A small energy began to form in his palm. It grew, took shape, and pulsed. It was close.
But then it vanished in the blink of an eye.
“Damn it…”
Armand whispered, clenching his fists.
“Ever since I used that against Eliza… I haven’t been able to do it again… Why?...”
He turned and walked back into the room just as the girls returned, excited, going straight to their magical backpacks.
“Let’s go, let’s go!!” shouted Celestina.
“So much energy... haha…” Emma said with a soft smile.
The three of them entered the bathroom to change. Celestina came out first. She wore a simple yellow bikini, tight around the bust. She went straight to Armand.
“Hey, aren’t you coming too?”
Armand looked out at the beach through the window, thoughtful.
“I’m not sure…”
“Aww come onnnn,” Celestina insisted with a smile.
He looked torn. On one hand, he was tired. On the other, the idea of relaxing with the girls didn’t sound bad.
“Come on, professor, have some fun with us. You deserve it after everything you’ve been through…” said Emma, stepping out of the bathroom wearing a red one-piece that hugged her curves.
Armand sighed.
“Alright, fine… I’ll go.”
“Haha!!! We can play some games!” Celestina cheered.
Lillith finally came out of the bathroom, wearing a green bikini. Her top was strapless, emphasizing her bust.
“Ready?”
The three ran excitedly toward the beach, while Armand followed at a more relaxed pace.
“COME ON, PROFESSOR!!!” shouted Emma.
Armand walked to a table under a beach umbrella, unbuttoned his shirt, and placed it on the chair. Then he began walking toward the sea. As soon as he took off his shirt, Emma and Celestina froze, staring at him like two zombies.
“Hey, are you two okay? Hellooo?” asked Lillith, confused as she looked at the two.
The group spent a few hours enjoying the beach. They played beach ball, built sandcastles, swam, and then lay in the shade chatting. Until Lillith had an idea.
“Let’s play piñata! It'll be fun!”
“With what?” asked Celestina.
Armand smiled.
“Leave it to me.”
He extended his hand and conjured a watermelon. A simple magic, but rarely used, since magically generated watermelons often lacked flavor.
He tied the watermelon with a rope and hung it from a thick tree branch on the beach.
“Done!” said Armand.
Lillith took a blindfold and started tying it around Emma’s eyes.
“Can I go?” asked Emma.
“Yes, go,” replied Lillith.
“A little to the left! No, no, my left—I mean… there!” Lillith guided, definitely in the worst way possible.
“Turn a bit to the side, that’s it! Now go straight.”
Armand watched with a strange expression. That wasn’t the direction of the watermelon. He frowned and stepped forward.
“One more step, one more, yes! Now hit with all your strength!!!” Lillith shouted.
“Alright!” Emma replied, raising the wooden bat.
Armand’s eyes widened.
“Emma, wait, that’s not—”
But it was too late.
The wooden bat came down hard, hitting Armand square in the testicles with a dry thud.
*CRUNCH!*
“uh…”
That was all he managed to say. A thin, weak sound, as his body froze in pain.
“I think I hit it, I think I hit it!” Emma said excitedly.
She hit again, still blindfolded.
*CRUNCH!*
“Ha! Take that!!!”
“Em…Ma… My… balls…” Armand whispered in complete despair.
“Huh?” Emma slowly took off the blindfold and saw Armand nearly in tears, curled up in a fetal position, hands between his legs.
“OH MY GOD, ARMAND, I’M SORRY, I’M SORRY, OH SHIT! I’M SO SORRY!”
Lillith was on the ground, rolling in laughter.
“HAHAHAHA DID YOU SEE THAT, CELESTINA?! HIS BALLS MUST BE FLATTENED NOW! HAHAHAHA”
Celestina, meanwhile, covered her mouth with her hands. She said nothing, but her eyes were wide. Still, behind her hand, a contained smile was clearly visible. She wasn’t sure if she felt sorry, or if she found it hilarious.
Armand remained on the ground, breathing heavily, staring at the sky.
“W… what… was that…”
Lillith was still laughing.
“It was… it was art… a performance, HAHAHA!”
Emma was kneeling beside him, not knowing what to do.
“Professor, I swear it was an accident! Oh my God, are you okay?!”
Armand didn’t answer. He was still trying to remember how to breathe.
