I told a bad joke to Vita, and somehow ended up getting psychological counseling from Onyx. I feel a little humiliated, but I am glad to know that I am healthy both physically and mentally as a result of the counseling. It is my imagination that I feel emotionally scarred.

"Gina, how are you feeling?"

I gave up on the Guavard imprinting and went to check on Gina. I found her in the living room of our house, relaxing and drinking tea with Sara. From the looks of it, she seems to be doing okay.

"Ah, Master. Yes, I'm much better now thanks to Sara and Puru-chan. I tried to be careful not to drink too much, but I was feeling a bit dizzy. I'm sorry.

Gina apologizes apologetically, probably feeling bad that she got a hangover even though she was careful not to drink too much. Normally, she has a certain degree of moderation in her drinking, and I guessed it was the spirits that had made her drink too much.

Even diluted with fruit juice, it would be more expensive than ale, and the sweetness would make it easier to drink. She must have fallen into the cocktail trap. I guess Pru's healing didn't help him recover completely, but I'll stop treating Moon to show him the dangers of distilled spirits.

"Well, you can drink too much in paradise, but you never know what they will do to you if you get drunk and lose consciousness, so be careful when you drink in town."

If one of my disciples is taken home by a guy from the neighborhood, I'm confident that I'll snap for sure, so please be very careful.

"Yes, I'll be careful. I'd hate it if he took my wallet or something."

...... isn't what I'm worried about, though. I wonder if she's going to be okay, even though she has a very selfish body. As a teacher, do I have to educate myself about men as well?

I say to hell with it, all men are wolves! Of course I am! It would be easier if we could make a kind of reopening of the situation, but the dignity of the master would plummet. Besides, I'm sure I'll cry ...... if Gina brings her boyfriend to the party with a proper male consciousness.

"Um, yeah. I'd be sad if someone stole my wallet."

I didn't know what to do, so I ran away. I wonder if Shilfi and the others will do something about it if I talk to them? I glanced at Sylphy, who did not seem to be interested in the topic at all. I don't think this is very promising.

"Sister Gina. That's not what Master wants to say.

In mild despair, Sarah entered the conversation.

"Hmm? No? But the master says it's true, right?"

"It's hard to explain from the master. Master. Since you seem to have a hard time explaining it, do you mind if I explain it to you?"

Sarah explaining? Does that mean you understand men and women? You mean to say that you are knowledgeable even though you are still in the upper grades of elementary school and have been living in a slum for some time? You're kidding, right?

"Um, ...... Sarah, do you understand what I'm trying to say? You're still a kid, right?"

"Hmmm, Master. Slum kids are precocious. They listen to adults to protect themselves."

Sarah looks kind of grown up. But yeah, I guess there are a lot of men in slums who talk about women in a vulgar way.

When I was in upper elementary school, I was just starting ...... puberty, right? It's not cool to hang out with women. The difference in environment is scary.

"Um, may I ask you a favor?"

I don't know why I used honorifics, but it doesn't matter since I was in a position to ask for a favor. Sara-san, you're very reliable.

"Yes. I'll leave it to you. However, it is indeed hard to talk in front of the master, so please leave the room ...... and we will move to Gina's room. 

Please.

"What? What do you mean? Sara? Master?"

I asked her to help me, and she walked back to her room with Gina's hand in hers. I'm worried that Fuku and the others went with her, but Gina, study hard.

If Gina's selfish body pretends to be an insensitive protagonist, pathetic men in tears will be mass-produced, and those who can't take it anymore may end up becoming criminals.

"...... Yuta, I don't think it's right to leave it to Sara, do you?"

"I can't help it if I can't. Sylphy didn't seem interested, and I'm not sure if I want Dine to explain it to me. I'm a little embarrassed to ask Dolly to do it, and if I ask If to do it, I'm afraid she'll beat me up. Maybe Sara is the best person for the job."

If I asked Nomos, he would be angry, and Vita might be ...... Vita is the spirit of life, so I think I can handle it, but Gina would be awkward because her gender is male.

"But, you could have asked Marie, Sonia, or Martha to do something about it without asking the genie, couldn't you?"

"Ah! ...... I was completely missing the idea of asking people to do things for me."

Marie and Sonia were not likely to be reliable since they had revealed themselves as virgins in front of the public, but Martha would be fine. I completely forgot that I had thought of asking Martha to educate Gina before. My brain is turning into a "genie" when it comes to asking for a favor.

What are you going to do? Do you want to go stop Sarah and Gina now?"

"Hmm. Sara seems confident, and Gina will realize that she doesn't know enough if she is taught by a child Sara. I'll leave it to her.

Sylphy looks at me. I have a feeling that he can see right through my bitter excuses.

Gina seems to be okay, so let's go check on Belle and the others. I'm worried about how Sakura is doing.

I force myself to end the conversation and leave the house. Today is a day to be mentally trapped. I was happy in Mohammed Kingdom. .......

*****

When I came out of the house, I heard the happy voices of little children coming from the spirit tree. It seemed that they had finished playing in the maze and moved toward the spirit tree.

"Darumasan fell down ......! Ah, Rein, it moved!"

"Cue."

It seems that they were playing <>, and Rain was caught in a feint by Flare, who was playing the role of an ogre. It's kind of funny.

"Ah! Yooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

"Belle. I'm moving, man!"

"Whoo!"

Belle, realizing that I had come to see her, tried to fly toward me with a big smile on her face, but was unceremoniously declared out by Flare. She looked at me with a startled look, and then I felt sorry to see her flying to Flare with a dejected look on her face. I'm sorry for interrupting you.

Tamamo, Moon, and Sakura were already captured, and only Tulu remained. It's the final showdown. The captured little kids are screaming for Tulu to save them. They are having so much fun.

"Here we go! Daruma-san koro-n-da!"

Tulu, who is cautious by nature, is not fooled by Flair's feints, and slowly moves closer and closer.

Flare also tried to catch the last Tulu, and did the high-speed Daruma-sansan tumble and the super high-speed Daruma-sans tumble. He tried all his tricks to catch the last Tulu, but could not reach him.

The distance between Flair and Tulu was already less than one meter. The next step will decide the game. It's a tense moment.

"Got it! Ruma! Three koron."

"Kittens."

"Flair made the wrong choice. Feinting in close combat wastes time. She should have tried to win the game with ultra fast or fast chanting.

Sylphy analyzes the cause of Flare's defeat. I don't think she's wrong, but I don't think Sylphy has ever played before. I wonder why he is so confident.

Well, it would be tactless to nitpick. Let's concentrate on <> for now. The arrival of Tulu at the flare causes all the little ones who were being held captive to run away.

"Yoo-tah," "cue," "good job," "coo," "......," "ah!"

For some reason, the bells are flying towards us. According to the rules, we have to go back to the start line, but I'm kind of glad. What's that? Flare is flying in with them. Does this mean that Daruma-san has already fallen? I stroke the gathered belles.

"Sakura. Are you having fun playing with the others?"

"Yes!"

Sakura nodded with a big smile. You can tell she's having fun just by the look on her face. I wasn't too worried because Belle and her friends are such good kids, but it seems they've settled in perfectly now.

"Yuta, you know what? Next time!"

What's next, Belle? I thought I petted her as much as I could before Sakura, does that mean I should pet her once more? I don't know about you, but I'll nudge you as many times as you want if that's what the Belles want, okay?

"No. This one."

I patted his head, but he was wrong. Belle is moving her hand up and down as hard as she can.

"...... Oh, you want to use handbells?"

"Yes. Hand-under-the-glass."

Next he plans to teach Sakura music. He wants to teach Sakura a lot of things.

"Ah, master."

As I walked back to the house listening to Bell and the others, I bumped into Gina. It's natural, since we live together, but it's a little awkward.

"Uh, ah, Master ......, Master is, uh, ......."

"Um, what's going on?"

Why is Gina glancing at me and blushing? 

"Master, do you want to xxxx and xxxx and xxxx girls too?"

...... did I just mishear that? I think I heard an impossible word.

"I'm sorry. I didn't hear you right."

"So you want to do xxxx and xxxx and xxxx to girls?"

I didn't hear it in my head.

"Hey, why do you want to ask me that?"

"Because Sarah said that if you get drunk and fall asleep unprotected, they will take you away and the next thing you know, they are forcing you to do xxxx and zzzz's and you can't escape. ......"

"Do not use such vulgar language!"

Yes, I wanted to do something about Gina's defenselessness, but you can't tell her so directly. I don't want to believe that these words came out of Sarah's mouth!

No, it's not her fault. Those slum shits are vile.

"Yuta. I think we should clear the slum once and for all."

I'm inclined to agree with Sylphy, but I don't think we can just clear the land just because it's vulgar. Also, I find Sylphy attractive with a slight blush on her cheeks.

"Yuta. Handavelu."

As I was confused, Belle intervened, who couldn't wait to see me. Right, they wanted to use handbells. Well, things are a bit of a mess.

Anyway, next time we go to the labyrinth city, I'll ask Martha to re-educate not only Gina but also Sara and Kikka. I can't ask him to do it for free, I should pay him the tuition.
