You are the disciple, I am the master. (2)

After the old feelings I thought were over with my teacher were resolved.

I wish I could have said that we could have just brushed it off and parted ways right then and there, but Master clung to my body like a baby koala, still in the same position he had fallen in, and wouldn’t let go.

“Teacher, this is a bit uncomfortable.”

“Hold on.”

“Why are you acting like this when you’re not even a child?”

“Be quiet. Replenishing ingredients.”

“What are my ingredients?”

“I don’t know.”

The sobbing lasted only a moment.

The teacher, who had returned to his usual self, put his small arms around my waist as if he would never let me go, and when I tried to take it off, he wrapped his arms around my legs and made me hang on.

Haha, this is driving me crazy. This posture is really bad.

I’m a guy too, but I don’t want to get labeled a lolicon for telling my childish teacher that I have a weird feeling about him.

In the end, I couldn’t let go of the teacher who was hanging on, so I got up from my seat and moved to a nearby bench and sat down there.

“… No way, is it heavy?”

“No way. Are you 30 kilos now, Master?”

“What a crazy guy. Asking a girl how much she weighs?”

“I am asking because you are a teacher and not a woman.”

“Washpal.”

I am very happy and glad to see Master’s appearance now completely returned to normal.

I never thought that he would regret what happened that day, that he had done something wrong to me.

Thinking that I too was a very clueless disciple, I lightly hugged her.

“Hehehe?!”

“Pfft! What is that strange sound? “

“You, you, what the hell are you! Seriously, you’re not in heat, are you?!”

“Please… That part of you, Master, is like an old man. Why on earth do you keep making sex jokes out of the blue? Just, I also need to supplement my Master’s ingredients.”

“… Yeah, right. Not now. I can’t handle it with this body.”

“Huh?”

What does this mean?

I was just responding that it was the first time in a long while that I could have a normal conversation with the person who was my protector and my strong father, but I couldn’t understand the Master’s answer.

Before I became this small, Master would never know how hard it was for me because I would always hug him and sleep while drinking.

If it weren’t for self-hypnosis from then on, I wouldn’t have been able to control the natural phenomena of my young teenage body.

As I was replenishing some unknown ingredient with the Master, who seemed to have shrunk both physically and mentally, the Master finally said that it was enough and asked me to let go, so I lightly released his arm, but he did not let me go and just raised his head and started moving his mouth.

“I have a lot to ask.”

“Ask me. I’ll answer everything I can.”

Once I decided to listen to the Master’s story, leaving open the possibility that the matter from last year could not be answered yet, she immediately started asking questions.

“Why didn’t you come to the rooftop and leave with Yuria?”

“Well, I originally planned to pack my bags at the Magic Tower. After all, I was in that situation with the Master, and it was also a situation where I would be a burden to the Magic Tower. On top of that, if I went to the Magic Tower, the Master would get really angry and say things like, “I told you so!! Why are you being so stubborn and going to an academy!! What kind of a guy are you…!” So I couldn’t possibly go.”

“… Yeah, yeah. I think that might be the case.”

“And thanks to being able to quickly come to the empire with Yuria, my magic circuits and arm that were injured at the time were all healed. To be honest, it was a bit painful.”

“Shitty bastards. You fucking kingdom. You said you were giving me first aid but you wouldn’t let me see you. Were you really sick?”

“It was quite severe. My skin was puckered with nerve necrosis, my magical circuits were all blown away, and it felt like the inside of my arm was constantly exploding. “

“… This bitch Nora really needs to get beat up.”

“Huh? Why Nora?”

“He said it wasn’t that bad. It was just that his arm couldn’t move. He said he could get it treated later.”

“Haha! Looks like you really hated me.”

“Twin year.”

After that, I answered all the questions my Master asked me honestly, such as why I started calling Yuria-noona “noona,” where I live now, and whether I plan on returning to the kingdom.

When I told her that I was sharing a room with Yuria, she shook her head and told me to get away from that girl right away, but what’s the age difference between you and me?

Besides, my daughter is a classmate of mine. So I told her not to worry about any mistakes that might happen.

“Are you really an idiot… “

“Huh?”

“… Okay, I’m done. Let’s talk later.”

Piana instinctively felt that there was nothing more to say, so she just kept her mouth shut.

I want to somehow keep that wet-ass girl away from me, but right now, there’s a chance that the inner intimacy within Rudis is higher with Yuria than with me.

There is a reason why they say that if you scratch and scratch, you will get a sore spot. If you try to forcibly tear it off, this old man will be really insensitive to women’s feelings, and you can’t guarantee that his male instincts won’t kick in when he realizes that the wet girl has approached him with malicious intentions.

That bitch’s breasts were too threatening even to me, a woman like me.

“Fucking disciple.”

“Yes. You damn master.”

“Promise me just this one thing.”

“What kind?”

“When you sleep at night, always lock the door and sleep. And. Be prepared to move to the accommodations I will decide later.”

“Huh? Wait a minute. I can’t go to that kingdom anymore… “

“Yeah, I get that. I don’t intend to force you to go since you don’t want to. In the first place… Judging from the way you’re attending the academy here, it seems like you really want to attend it, so don’t worry about it even if you say you’ll graduate. I’ll just give you a place to stay in the empire, so move there. In the first place, you don’t intend to continue to cling to that little… Yuria, do you? “

“That’s true. I’m an adult now, and I have to take care of my own household. I feel bad about always being in debt to my older sister.”

“Sa, Sallim…! Ahem, right. That Sallim is something I’m saying I’ll take care of ‘as your guardian!'”

I don’t want to see my disciple clinging to someone else.

For that reason, the Master’s words telling me to end my cohabitation with Sister Yuria were very logical.

Hmm. Certainly, if the Master helps me, I will feel less burdened and I will be able to achieve my dream of owning my own home.

Besides, seeing Yuria’s defenseless appearance every morning is honestly becoming too much for me.

I live with my older sister, Suin, so I can’t have any time alone where the smell definitely lingers.

This means that self-hypnosis is not a panacea.

“Okay, I will accept your consideration. But then, what should I do for you in return?”

“… I see. Just live in the house I gave you no matter what happens.”

“Are those the exchange conditions?”

“Just shut up and take it.”

“… Yep.”

I was scared by the look in my teacher’s eyes that seemed like she would hit me if I spoke any more, so I answered her first. With a satisfied smile, she buried her face in my arms and rubbed it once more before finally leaving me and standing up on her own.

“Then, that woman’s daughter. You want me to treat her?”

“Ah! Right. Yes. Can I ask you to treat Ellis?”

“Tsk. You really are a slow-witted guy. Why would you want to help a girl who abandoned you, switched to another guy, and even got kicked out?”

“Haha! But she’s Yuria’s daughter, right? And it’s wrong to say she switched to another guy. Ellis never looked at me like that in the first place.”

“… You’re really good at everything, but you’re blind when it comes to love.”

“Huh? What did you say?”

“Okay. I’m just talking to myself.”

The teacher, who seemed to already know what I wanted, listened to me straight away, but then turned around and tried to leave.

Oh, wait!

“Master!”

“Huh?”

“Well, I have one more favor to ask.”

“… Yeah, wash it. Tell me, it seems like the one you love sucks your spine in every era. “

“Huh? What did you say at the end… “

“You’re just talking to yourself! So what?”

“Oh, can you please give me just one cell phone? There is no way to contact the Master in the Empire.”

“Ah.”

My cell phone was confiscated by the kingdom, and the empire does not have a cell phone supply that can be used by warlocks.

Even though the Black Tower sells a few to the Empire every year, those items are given priority for purchase by those with the Dark Magician trait, leaving ordinary Dark Magicians like me with no choice.

Anyway, now that my relationship with my teacher has been restored, isn’t it funny to live without contacting him at all?

I asked the teacher for a cell phone in that sense.

“Okay, use this.”

-Whew!

“Huh? This is Master’s…!”

“It’s the latest model phone. Contact me often, no. Every day. And… I see. I’ll charge you for the phone separately.”

“Ah, I’ll give it to you now. I have money… “

“No, let’s go out and date later… Let’s go for a walk around the city. That’ll be fine.”

“Huh? Wait a minute! This is so expensive… “

“Okay. Okay. “

“Yep!”

When I stood at attention and answered in an atmosphere where I felt like I was going to get hit again, the teacher nodded as if he was satisfied, then turned his back as if he really wanted to go.

Hey, wait!!

“Ah, damn it! If you have something to say, just say it quickly! Why are you holding me back when I’m trying to be cool?!”

“I’m sorry. I also have something I want to give to you, Master… “

I don’t know what’s cool about having tears and snot all over my face, but I handed over a note to my teacher, who was trying to show off anyway.

“What is this, a love letter?”

“It’s better than a love letter from a disciple. Read it after you arrive at the top of the tower.”

“If you read it now?”

“It explodes as soon as you read it.”

“Washpal.”

After finishing the conversation with my usual playful attitude, I saw my teacher off.

You came to see me, but if we break up like this, I don’t know when we’ll be able to meet again.

We couldn’t even eat together, so I started to feel a little sorry about sending him off like this.

“Take care. Next time you come, I will definitely go see you first.”

“… Kick. Yes. Oh, disciple. I had something to give you too. Come here and bow your head. “

“?”

After hearing the Master’s words, I half-bent my knees and met her gaze. She came to me with an evil smile, just like her old dignified appearance, and grabbed my face.

-side.

“… I’m not a kid anymore.”

“I know. But I’m still your ‘dad’.”

Her round lips left a mark on my cheek, barely touching my lips, as if showing off her presence, and I glared at my teacher with a slightly red face, but she seemed to enjoy my reaction and laughed loudly as before, turning her back.

Seriously, how long are you going to treat me like a child? If you keep doing this, my heart will burst.

“See you later!”

I tried to see her off loudly to hide my embarrassment, but this time she just waved and left without saying anything.

Well, I guess we’ll meet again someday. You said you’d take care of my house, so maybe you’ll send me, Lord Butop?

I haven’t even been able to properly greet Loken, so when we meet, I’ll make sure to apologize and ask how he’s doing.

Thinking that way, I was about to return to my lodgings, but then I stopped again and looked back at my teacher.

“Oh, by the way, I didn’t ask how you knew Harbrang.”

I thought I should catch him again, but well. There was a high chance that he had found me while looking for me. Thinking that, I went back to my dorm first.

*

“You damn vicious little bitch. Are you looking at me?”

“… What is it.”

After parting ways with Rudis, Piana deliberately entered the forest near the deserted black magic lab, and as she spoke into the empty space where there was no one, a beautiful woman who seemed to shine like a star in the night sky appeared out of the darkness.

“Did you see? Unlike you, I can kiss you directly.”

“Ha! You mean ‘dad’? And it’s just a kiss on the cheek!”

“But it would be much more natural than doing it ‘forcibly’ like you did, right?”

“Ugh… !”

Piana was sure that she would be watching nearby, so she kissed Rudis first to show off.

If it were his old self, he would have been embarrassed and made futile efforts to make his disciple fall in love with him, but now it’s different.

Since Yuria struck first, it was important to prove first who was the woman who would truly have the upper hand.

“Rudis won’t give it to you even if she dies.”

“Me, too… !”

“Ha! If you’re hesitating because of your daughter, then go ahead. I would never take my family hostage and threaten them.”

“That’s it… I thought you’d help me with that part, so I’ll thank you in advance.”

“Huh! No need. Originally, I was just going to tease you because you looked good, but I’m going to tease you enough to make you laugh and then treat you. Instead, I’ll put a condition on you too. “

“… … “

Piana just said she wasn’t threatening, but there’s no reason for her to help her daughter out of good will alone.

Yuria, who understood Piana’s words, felt uneasy about how much of a price she would ask for, but no matter how much she was given away, she was still a daughter who was born with pain in her stomach.

As I nodded my head, determined to pay whatever price I could for her, Piana snickered and said mockingly.

“Give up on Rudis and completely fall away.”

“I hate it.”

“Kick! I knew it. Is a man more important than your daughter’s life as an inspector?”

“… That’s like asking me to choose between mom and dad.”

“If it was your daughter, I think she would naturally choose her mother?”

“… … “

As Yuria’s already pale face turned even paler at her words, Piana covered her mouth in satisfaction and chuckled, and Yuria bit her lips even more at her actions.

Of course, since Piana had Rudis’s request, she planned to treat her daughter right away. However, she had no intention of just forgiving Yuria, who had played with her by pasting Rudis’s lip marks on her chest, and she moved her lips again, thinking that she had gotten her revenge to a satisfactory degree.

“Let’s stop joking here.”

“… I guess it wasn’t a joke.”

“Oh my, you’re quicker on the uptake than our disciple?”

“So, what do you really want?”

“Don’t touch Rudis until I get back. That means don’t attack him at night like you did before.”

“!”

Yuria was so surprised by Piana’s story that her tail and ears perked up.

She is the lord of the Black Tower of the Kingdom.

Just being here now is considered a huge irregularity, and the way she spoke about coming to the Empire seemed like it was already a certainty.

“No way… Are you thinking of coming to the Empire too? What about the Black Tower?”

“That’s none of your business. Promise me, and sign the contract with the magic seal. Otherwise, your daughter will… get treatment, but I can’t promise how long it will take.”

“… That’s a threat.”

“It’s a deal.”

If it was really a threat, you could tell him to really get out of here and let go of his daughter’s hand.

However, Piana knew that she would not give in to this, and she also understood well that if she gave in to this and disappeared from Rudis’s sight, Rudis would not forgive her.

So what he has to do here is to completely control the situation where Yuria goes berserk before he gets there.

Before she returned to the arena where she would literally have a showdown over the man she liked, it was important to prevent Yuria from forcibly attacking Rudis.

“… Haa, [Yuria Portward] will fulfill the conditions that [Fiana Stone] just mentioned. “

“[Piana Stone] received a promise from [Yuria Portward]. If she does not fulfill it, she will cut off both your arms and your daughter’s arms.”

“… … “

The two people who had signed a contract with each other’s names turned their backs on each other as if they had no more business with each other.

As the night deepened, the forest regained its silence.

“… On one side, a married woman with a daughter, no. A widow? And on the other side, a master who wants to seduce her? The girl’s rivals are all in strange states.”

No one noticed that there was a princess like moonlight watching them.
