The professor was lecturing diligently in front.

Ironically, the lecture content did not enter my ears at all.

‘Am I…am I mistaken..?’

married couple.

The final relationship between a man and a woman.

Touching a person’s sexual parts was a privilege reserved only for married couples, an expression of love, and a step toward adulthood.

At least that’s what he was taught.

But if what I learned is true.

What on earth was that I saw before?

I’ve seen women link arms occasionally, but I never dreamed of them touching each other’s breasts.

Besides, Iris doesn’t just touch. She grabs. She shakes. She pinches… –

pop-

The memory was so stimulating that my whole body turned red from head to toe.

An obscene act that is too shameful to even imagine.

I just couldn’t understand it.

So I asked Lily.

– If Iris is okay, then it’s okay, right?

Her answer only served to further confuse me.

‘Lily, doesn’t this seem strange?

I don’t know.

I really don’t know.

It felt like the common sense I had taken for granted was crumbling down.

‘Okay..! Let’s stop thinking about it.’

okay.

It wasn’t my job anyway.

As Lily said.

As long as Iris liked it, it would be fine. Whether it was dating women or touching each other.

After all, everyone’s standard for happiness will be different.

As long as Iris was happy, he had nothing more to worry about.

I guess I should concentrate on class.

There was no time to rest and slack off like this.

My goal is the Great Sage. And more than that.

To surpass his realm, you have to work harder every minute and every second.

With that thought in mind, I looked back at the front of the classroom.

Two people who had not been there before were standing in front of the desk.

One of them had a familiar face.

One of the most powerful men in the empire.

Lord Darkhan, who sits in the position of chairman of Regis Academy.

The chairman whispered something to the professor, who had a look on his face that said he didn’t understand English, and then he left a girl behind and leisurely walked out of the classroom.

After that, the professor looked confused for a moment.

After a few coughs, he opened his mouth.

“It’s embarrassing, but…the transfer students are already here. Come forward.”

His words caused the whole class to become noisy.

“Transfer student? Suddenly..?”

“Hmm. Did you take the entrance exam?”

“Of course! The Academy is not a soft place.”

“Wow. Isn’t it so cute?”

While various reactions were coming out, the professor focused attention by slamming the desk several times.

“Please accept all of the chairman’s wishes. Hey, transfer students. Come out and introduce yourself.”

“Nuh…yes..!!”

A girl running towards the teacher’s desk, showing a cute reaction of surprise.

She must have been very nervous. Her eyes and body were trembling, and I could clearly see that from the back of the classroom.

“Ah..hello…my..name is Sera..! I enrolled in the martial arts class…”

A pleasant, soft voice flowed from her mouth.

She must have been quite embarrassed. She blushed and lowered her head.

I looked at her like that for a moment.

A girl with decent brown hair and eyes.

Although her hair color was clearly not flashy, her sunken face and the fresh atmosphere she gave off combined to create the image of a lovely girl.

‘….She’s so cute.’

Just looking at it gave me the impression that I was in a good mood for some reason.

Because of her favorable impression, I wanted to become friends with her.

Looking to the side, Iris was also staring at the girl with a strange expression.

Did you feel anything for the girl?

‘I should try talking to her after class.’

My heart started to flutter a little at the thought of making new friends.

Groan-groan-

During break time, several people were gathered in the middle of the classroom and making a fuss.

“You’re so cute!! Where are you from?”

“Ah..uh! Th..that’s….”

“But a martial arts class!! You look too skinny for that?”

“That’s right. It looks like he can’t even lift a sword..?”

“Looks nervous…so cute..”

“Your skin is so white! Are you the type of person who doesn’t go out much?”

“It smells good too? I don’t know why, but I feel like I’m falling for it…”

“Ugh..”

The girl, trapped in the middle of a bustling crowd, was sweating and struggling.

‘…What are you all doing? The child is suffering.’

At first glance, he doesn’t seem like an open-minded person. If you push him like that, he’ll obviously hate it.

I jumped up from my seat and strode toward the crowd.

“Huh?”

I pushed my way through the crowd and reached the center, grabbing the girl’s hand. A cute sound escaped her mouth.

As I walked out of the classroom, the girl followed behind me as if she was being dragged.

So, me and a girl named Sarah came out into the hallway outside the classroom.

Sarah took a look at my face and opened her mouth with shaking eyes.

“Ah..Ariel..?”

“Huh?”

For a moment, I wondered how he knew my name. But when I realized that I had a name tag pinned to my chest, I was able to quickly erase my doubts.

I shook hands with the girl who was very agitated for some reason and greeted her.

“Hello! As you can see from my name tag, my name is Ariel. Nice to meet you.”

Sarah stared blankly at my hand for a moment, then smiled beautifully and took my hand.

“Yeah. My name is Sarah. Nice to meet you, Ariel.”

….nice to meet you.

I felt slightly awkward hearing her words.

After I finished my declaration, I felt like I wanted to get closer to her.

“Do you have time after class? I’ll show you around the school.”

“Uh….”

A girl who hesitates and mumbles for a moment.

I wonder if he already has another appointment.

But after a while, she smiled brightly at me.

“Yeah! Thanks Ariel.”

I stared blankly for a moment at her bright and lovely smile like the sunlight.

‘…..really cute.’

A pure girl’s smile, just like something out of a fairy tale.

If I were a man, I might have fallen in love with her.

But since they are both women, that can’t be happening.

.

.

.

The time to leave school has arrived before we knew it.

“This is a martial arts studio. Sarah, since you are in the martial arts class, you will probably be coming here often from now on.”

“Yeah. I see.”

I showed Sarah around the academy.

Then, for some reason, I felt a sense of satisfaction when I saw her following me around like a puppy.

Sarah looks at the academy with an expression full of excitement.

A smile kept appearing on my face at the sight of her like that.

“Hmm… I think I’ve seen pretty much everything. Is there anywhere else you’d like to go?”

“Ugh.. No! Thanks for introducing me, Ariel!”

When Sarah smiled brightly and took my hand, I felt my heart beat softly.

“Uh..yeah..”

Her warmth was transmitted through the hand I was holding.

I looked at Sarah’s face, feeling slightly dazed.

Her vibrant eyes, clearly a dull brown but shining brightly.

Her cute nose and lips, and the blush that rose slightly, made her look so lovely.

“Huh..? Ariel, do you have something to say?”

Sarah tilted her head and asked me, wondering if it was strange that I had been blankly staring at her for a while.

“Ah..no! Sorry. I was just thinking about something else for a moment.”

“What are you thinking? Are you worried?”

Sarah looked at me curiously. For a moment, past memories passed through my mind.

“Umm….well…I do have one concern.”

At my words, Sarah ran to me with her eyes wide open, grabbed my hands, and looked up at me brightly.

“Tell me. I want to help Ariel.”

“Ugh.”

Thump-thump-

My heart raced with joy at the sight of her radiating a lovely atmosphere.

My mind went blank slightly due to the unfamiliar feeling.

Let us look at our hands intertwined.

For some reason, a desire to link hands flowed into my head.

‘What…what are you doing, Ariel! To a girl like me?’

no.

No.

…Wouldn’t something like a handcuff be okay?

Anyway, a lot of other kids do it too.

Holding hands was a common expression of intimacy even between women.

Behavior that is not strange at all.

I guess I’m overreacting because of Iris’ strange behavior yesterday.

With that in mind, I carefully straightened my palm.

She covered my fingers between the joints of her soft knuckles.

Then, a deep sense of fulfillment filled me in my heart.

“?”

Sarah stared at our hands for a moment with her eyes wide open. Soon after, she smiled bashfully and tightly held my hand, accepting my handcuffs.

‘Ugh..’

Boom bang-boom bang-

Her girlish power, which could be called destructive, made my heart start to beat like crazy.

Sarah… why are you so girly!!

Well, of course it’s natural since you’re a woman…

But Sarah was much more feminine than any other woman I’d ever seen.

No woman he had ever seen before was so pretty and lovely.

Even if she were called a heavenly woman, she would not be lacking in anything.

Even a woman like me could feel this excited. It was as if I was born to seduce people.

‘Calm down, Ariel. Sarah is a girl. She’s a girl.’

Although he tried hard to suppress his heart, it still kept pounding loudly.

“What are you worried about? Huh?”

“Ugh..!”

I had no choice but to open my mouth as she looked at me with that fatal look on her face and asked me back.

“What do you think about women showing affection to each other?”

“Huh? Affection?”

“Yeah. Like kissing. Or touching each other’s bodies..”

I couldn’t say that I touched her chest.

I’m afraid you’ll think I’m weird.

I hated it when Sarah looked at me like that.

‘..Sera will definitely think it’s strange.’

I don’t know why Lily said it was okay, but Iris’s actions were clearly wrong.

but.

“Ugh….. Isn’t that normal between women?”

“Huh..?”

I blinked blankly for a moment at her answer.

“That’s…normal? For girls to touch each other?”

“Huh? Isn’t that usually the case..?”

Sarah looks at me as if she’s looking at a strange person.

Soon she spoke to me with a faint smile on her face.

“Ariel. You lack common sense.”

Ppachik-

For some reason, her bright smile seemed to make me feel slightly warm.
