No XP, Just Seed : My Apocalypse Cheat

008 Ririsa's Story

My name is Ririsa. I’m twenty-five years old, and I’m the founder and CEO of Nexus Materials.

To outsiders, I’m a brilliant, charismatic young entrepreneur deserving of endless praise. But behind all the sweet flattery lies a reality that most people know nothing about.

Standing at the top of the ladder didn't happen because I’m some kind of super-genius. I was born into ridiculous wealth. From the moment I entered this world, I never had to worry about a single cent.

The finest education money could buy, abundant capital, direct connections to influential figures—I had all of it right from the start.

It was purely through those privileges that I managed to build my company, Nexus Materials.

People praise my business success, oblivious to the fact that my birthright paved the way. Without that head start, my chances of making it would have been under ten percent.

I’m not trying to put myself down—it’s just the raw truth. Without extreme privilege, nobody reaches the pinnacle of success as fast as I did.

Alright, enough about my background. Let’s get into the actual story from my perspective.

I have an acquaintance I consider like a younger sister to me. Her name is Elena.

Elena is a gorgeous, brilliant girl. Like me, she was born into wealth, but her family was far stricter, harsher, and more oppressive than mine.

They placed impossibly high expectations on her—unreasonable expectations, if you ask me. They demanded flawless perfection in every aspect, especially regarding her Class.

And when she failed to meet those absurd demands, that cold-blooded family cast her aside without hesitation.

Honestly, when I first heard the news, my hands shook with rage, my chest burning and my jaw clenched tight. I was furious enough to consider taking them on directly.

But once I cooled down and thought logically, reality set in. All I had was money; picking a fight with a family centered on physical power was impossible.

After some tense negotiations, I managed to pull Elena out of their clutches, sparing her from the tragic fate of a forced political marriage.

Once things settled down, I asked her to stay at my house while I went off to work at Nexus Materials. Before stepping out the door, I gently stroked her hair and told her to get some rest and ease her mind. Elena gave a quiet nod.

Imagine my shock when I returned home that evening to total silence. She had left—disappeared without a clue or a single note indicating where she went.

Panic-stricken, I immediately ordered my subordinates to scour every corner of the city. Yet days slipped by with not a single word about her whereabouts.

Every night my chest ached and my eyes grew swollen from worrying about her safety. But no matter how heartbroken I felt, I had to keep working. I was the head of Nexus Materials, after all.

Thousands of employees depended on me. So I forced myself to organize stack after stack of documents, somehow managing to complete my duties without major issues, even while my mind wandered elsewhere.

As I was staring blankly out the office window, lost in thought, an urgent report suddenly arrived.

My secretary knocked loudly on the door and delivered wonderful news: Elena was back!

Desperate to see her, I started to sprint out of the room, but my secretary grabbed my hand, urging me to calm down first.

The moment the door opened and Elena stepped inside, my eyes locked onto the handsome young man standing close beside her. His name was Kael, and he seemed extremely suspicious to me.

Admittedly, Kael was strikingly handsome. He looked to be around twenty, with a subtle, enigmatic charisma that was hard to put into words.

When I heard the status of their relationship, my mind went completely blank. And when Elena revealed her Class as Mage Queen, I assumed they were putting on an act to fool me.

'How on earth could Elena suddenly acquire a Class as exalted as Mage Queen?'

Everything changed when I openly expressed my doubts toward Kael. Crossing my arms, I gave him a sharp, probing look filled with skepticism.

Sensing my pointed suspicion, Kael shifted his footing slightly. Suddenly, a thick, lethal aura burst forth from his body!

Whoosh!

The air in the room instantly turned heavy and ice-cold! The overwhelming pressure sent shivers down my spine, as if invisible hands were crushing my chest and wringing my neck. My breath hitched, my eyes widened in shock, and my knees trembled violently.

Clack!

Fortunately, Elena quickly stepped between us to protect me, instantly cutting off the terrifying aura. If she hadn't, I would have passed out cold right in front of them.

Once calm was restored, we turned to their main purpose: finding an investor willing to fund their adventures.

Truth be told, even without the Mage Queen Class, I would have willingly backed them as their primary investor, though my personal funds were somewhat limited.

But with the Mage Queen Class proven right before my eyes, I didn't hesitate to throw the full weight of my vast corporate resources behind them.

I immediately took them down to my private underground armory. Inside the dimly lit, sprawling hall, rows of rare weapons, protective armor, and top-tier magical artifacts were on display. I told them to take whatever they needed.

They agreed to stay at my house for the time being. Deep down, I wouldn't have minded if they moved in permanently, but they politely declined the open-ended offer, opting for a temporary stay instead.

That night was supposed to be just like any other. But as I walked softly past their guest room, I froze. From behind the slightly ajar door, I caught the faint sound of Elena moaning!

My knees nearly buckled on the spot. Swamped by my insane work schedule, I didn't have a boyfriend—I barely even encountered men my age.

And there was no way I'd ever be attracted to the middle-aged, balding corporate heads I usually dealt with, which explained why I was still single.

I had no intention of eavesdropping on their privacy, but as those breathless, feverish moans grew in intensity, something deep inside me awakened. My blood rushed hot straight to my head.

Before I knew it, my hand slipped downward, sliding under my favorite purple lace panties.

You can probably guess what happened next. That's right—there I was, Ririsa, leaning against the wall outside their bedroom, touching myself to the sound of a girl I considered my own sister!

It was utterly humiliating, my heart hammering against my ribs, but I completely lost control. My fingers moved faster and faster until an explosive sensation shattered through me at the peak of my climax!

Panting heavily, I stumbled away on trembling legs and hastily dispatched my automated vacuum robot to clean up every wet trace from the floor.

The thrill of that night proved dangerously addictive. Over the next few nights, I found myself right back outside their door, doing it again and again.

When Elena was in a foul mood and brooding the next day, I almost flew off the handle at Kael, assuming he was the cause of her distress.

But once I learned what had actually transpired between them the night before, my frustration vanished completely, replaced by sympathy for Kael.

I asked him to cheer her up, and Kael handled it brilliantly!

Remembering my resolve, I swore to myself that I wouldn't eavesdrop that night. I made a solemn promise to exercise self-control.

Yet because I had restrained myself the previous night, the agonizing craving for that sensation consumed me even more fiercely. Overridden by desire, I gave in once again, racked with immense guilt.

Luscious moans drifted through the dark hallway once more, setting my body trembling in the night.

Seconds after the final moan faded into silence, I tried to slip away on weak, unsteady legs.

But just as I turned on my heel to leave...

"Leaving so soon? How about we talk for a bit?"

Thump!

My body froze at the sound of that deep voice. The blood drained from my face as I slowly turned around.

There, leaning casually against the open doorway, was Kael. He was wearing nothing but a pair of thin briefs... with a very prominent bulge out front!

"K-Kael?" I stammered, my throat instantly going bone-dry.

Kael flashed a subtle smile, but my mind was far too chaotic to grasp the meaning behind his mysterious expression.

To be continued...
