Chapter 24: A Problem with Daily Life?

“Are you really leaving?” In the office of the Swordsman Academy, a red-haired elf dressed in a teacher’s uniform, exuding a mature charm, asked the young girl in front of her.

“Yes, teacher. Isn’t it a wife’s duty to follow her husband’s footsteps?”

Aisilis seemed very respectful towards this red-haired elf. As for this red-haired elf, she was none other than Komia, the one who had taken Aisilis away from Nordanlon back then.

Elves possess long lifespans, so after several years, Komia seemed to have not changed at all.

If one had to point out a change… there was one.

The proud 36D on her chest seemed to have swelled another size, showing signs of heading towards a 36E.

And because of the form-fitting teacher’s uniform, the 36D on her chest appeared even more magnificent~

And when Aisilis looked at Komia’s chest, her originally respectful gaze instantly turned crestfallen.

“You’ve grown up too,” Komia said, looking at Aisilis with gratification.

“Yes, it’s so useless, why does it have to grow so big,” Aisilis replied dejectedly, still staring at Komia’s chest.

“Look at people in the face when you’re talking to them!” She grabbed Aisilis’s face with both hands and squeezed her cheeks hard.

“Nngh~~ sowy…” Because her face was being pulled, Aisilis couldn’t even speak clearly.

“Sigh, so why then? Why the sudden change of heart to let your husband go on an adventure? I remember you wanted him to stay by your side and not go anywhere.” With a sigh, Komia rested her hand on her forehead and asked.

“Teacher, if you used this kind of surveillance skill on your work, then…”

“Answer my question.” Grabbing Aisilis’s cheeks again with both hands, Komia said angrily.

“~~Nngh nngh~ yes.”

“The Yuren of now yearns for freedom. If I forcibly keep him by my side, Yuren will eventually develop a rebellious spirit. This was already proven at the villa. In a severe case, he might even lose his mind in the end. Although that wouldn’t be so bad, for me, a mindless Yuren is just an empty shell. While it could let me release my desires for a while, if I can’t have Yuren declare his love for me, that’s something I absolutely do not want to see in the future. Besides, Yuren’s desire to experience the outside world is only because he hasn’t yet understood its cruelty.”

Pausing for a moment, Aisilis continued.

“As long as I wait until Yuren understands the cruelty of the world and is in a state of despair, then I just need to appear by his side at the crucial moment to completely possess Yuren’s mind and body.”

With red cheeks, Aisilis said this calmly.

“I see. So it’s like fishing. After the fish is hooked, you don’t pull the rod first, but wait until the fish is exhausted, then reel it in in an instant. Truly worthy of being my disciple. What a terrifying plan.”

“If you please, call this ‘the correct way to raise a husband’,” Aisilis said.

“I never thought you would have such an idea. It seems love hasn’t clouded your judgment. You’ve grown too.”

Looking at the Aisilis before her, Komia smiled sincerely, praising her student.

“Yes, I’ve grown too. But growing to this extent, will they really not sag?”

Aisilis once again stared at Komia’s chest with a dejected expression. Komia’s mouth was clearly twitching.

“Shut up! How would someone flat-chested like you understand? This is a gift from Lord God.”

Grabbing Aisilis’s face with both hands, Komia once again said angrily.

“Nngh nngh nngh~~~~”

After a while, Komia seemed to have calmed down and sat down weakly on the chair.

“Looking at you now, I’m reminded of when you first came here, calling me ‘big sister’ with every word, and the scene of you having to sleep with your head on my chest at night. It was so nice, I really want to go back to that time…” Komia rested her forehead on her hands, her elbows on the desk, seemingly lost in memories.

“I’m sorry, teacher. That’s your fantasy, not a memory.” Aisilis mercilessly shattered Komia’s fantasy.

“Tsk, you’re even destroying my fantasy. Are you a demon?” Komia looked at Aisilis with disgust. She suddenly leaned in, her face mysterious as she whispered,

“So, have you two done it?”

“Yes, of course. As husband and wife, isn’t that a matter of course?”

“Then you two… how many times?” Komia seemed very interested in this topic.

“…13 times.” After lowering her head and being silent for a moment, Aisilis answered affirmatively.

“13 times, huh… to be honest, that’s less than I imagined. I thought that after you met, you would just swallow him whole. I didn’t expect you to be so restrained.”

“Tsk, there’s no choice. Yuren isn’t very enthusiastic about this kind of thing, and those 13 times were all when I was imprisoning him in the villa, forcing him to do it, which led to what happened later. But compared to that, I did gain something. At least I’ve made him acknowledge the fact of our marriage.”

Aisilis looked very annoyed. Indeed, compared to what happened later, this gain was indeed a bit small.

“But teacher, now is not the time to be concerned about me, is it? Still no suitors? Or did teacher’s perverted desires scare everyone away?” Aisilis’s tone changed as she said this with a blank expression.

“Ngh~ I’ve been one-upped… Are… are you really that concerned about your teacher’s lifelong affair?” Supporting herself on the desk, the veins on her forehead popping, Komia tried to calm herself and asked.

“Of course, although I don’t usually show it, I’m quite concerned about teacher’s lifelong affair. After all, you’re almost 200 years old, yet you’ve never been in a relationship. People wouldn’t believe it if you told them, and having a teacher like you, I’d be embarrassed too. Please think about me.” Aisilis continued her attack.

“Th-this kind of thing is about fate, and… and why should I care about those stinking men? They’re only interested in my appearance. What I like are those cute children… yes, cute children are my love.”

As if finding some kind of breakthrough, Komia nodded and said.

“Is that so? Is teacher using this as an excuse? Hmph… I guess so, after all, you’re an old woman. There won’t be anyone pursuing you, right? After all, you’re an old woman.”

“You…” Komia stood up with a ‘swoosh’, glaring at Aisilis. With the exaggerated movement, the proud 36 on her chest also swayed up and down.

And although Aisilis looked at Komia calmly with a blank expression, when she saw her chest sway, her eyes still twitched.

This scene was seen by Komia, who thought to herself, ‘The opportunity for a counterattack has come.’ At the same time, she calmly sat down. As she sat down, she intentionally or unintentionally leaned forward, placing her entire chest on the desk.

Aisilis looked at the chest on the desk, which had become slightly rounder due to the pressure, and the twitching at the corners of her eyes became more obvious.

“Oh, it seems I’m not that old. I always have something that some people envy.”

“Hmph, it’s just a burden… and Yuren wouldn’t like something like this anyway…”

“Oh my, I seem to hear the sound of someone being jealous.”

“How pathetic. Is this excess fat all you can show off now?”

“Yes, it’s a pity that some people don’t even have a little excess fat. I have to say, it’s really sad.”

“…”

“…”

The two of them bickered fiercely in the room… if anyone knew that this was how Aisilis and Komia usually got along, their jaws would probably drop.

Inside an inn in Erisburg. Liya and I are currently resting at this inn. Although we’ve said we’re going on an adventure, we need to prepare various things. Plus, Aisilis seems to be going to say goodbye to her teacher. Although I also offered to go and thank Komia, Aisilis flatly refused. So we’re resting at this inn.

Speaking of which, this inn is the same one where I washed dishes back then. It seems to be one of the properties Aisilis bought back then. To come to this inn again as the owner, I’m filled with emotion. But by comparison, I’m more like a freeloader.

I chose a seat by the window, casually ordered some dishes, and then watched the passers-by outside, feeling a sense of emotion. I used to be like these pedestrians, busy every day, doing things I didn’t like to survive, and pleasing people I hated. But now I’m sitting here with a sense of understanding. I have to say, life…

The inn was very efficient, and the food came quickly. I wasn’t too hungry, so I ate quickly. But when it came to paying the bill… the same tragedy happened again… I… have no money.

Because Aisilis usually takes care of everything, and I don’t like shopping or anything, so even though Aisilis once gave me a card, I don’t know where I lost it.

Very good, so now there are three solutions.

First, have Liya come down and pay… does Liya look like someone who would carry money?

Second, reveal my identity… no one would believe me if I said it, and I’d be laughed at as a joke.

Third, wait for Aisilis to come back… I don’t know when she’ll be back. It’s only noon now. If she comes back at night, does that mean I have to sit here until then?

It’s over, none of the three solutions are feasible. Sitting by the window, I rested my hand on my forehead and sighed. At this moment, a somewhat familiar voice came to me.

“Hello, sir. Are you finished with your meal?”

I looked up and saw the waiter who had appeared beside me at some unknown time. Holy cr*p, it’s the same guy who made me wash dishes last time. The waiter was also a little surprised to see me clearly, but after a second, his waiterly composure made him immediately smile again… At the same time, he asked,

“Excuse me, cash or card?”

I glanced at the door… sure enough, those two burly men were there again. Are you kidding me…

Komia and Aisilis sat weakly in their chairs. Was the final result a mutual destruction?

Aisilis stood up first and said to Komia,

“Well, teacher, after all that’s been said, I hope you’ll reflect on it. I should be going now. If I’m away for too long, Yuren will miss me.” (That’s right, he misses you a lot right now.)

Komia sat up straight and said to the departing Aisilis,

“You were so cute when you were little, but why have you become like this?”

Aisilis, who was about to walk out the door, turned her head, her eyes filled with tenderness as she answered,

“Because of love! Teacher.”

Then she left without looking back.

“Love?” Lying on the desk, Komia fell into deep thought.

“In front of Yuren Xing and not in front of him, she’s a completely different person. To be liked by someone like that, should you be considered lucky? Or unfortunate?”

“Ah, my work. Damn it, my work for today!”

Aisilis enjoyed Komia’s screams from behind, but her mind was completely on Yuren Xing…

“I should hurry back. Yuren is waiting for me~” Licking her lips, a flash of red light passed through Aisilis’s eyes…
