Chapter 101. Former Hero?Being trained.

Rithina is happy.

Although she usually shows a radiant smile, I can say that today’s smile is special.

The reason should be obvious, it’s because I have accepted her proposal.

[I’ll send a letter to my honorable father immediately, or maybe tomorrow!

After the reign is established, I will ask him to reserve the various expenses and secure the capable people whom he will dispatch.

As for the things that seem necessary, I’ve already calculated them]

Rithina take out a letter from the shelf while saying it in a seemingly lively voice.

Oi, wait.

Why has the letter to the King-sama already been completed?

Does that mean that she has foreseen whether I would accept proposal or not?

Does she simply believe that she can rely on me?

I suppose it’s half the former and half of the latter.

Oh well.

It’s good and all, but even if it’s nice to have the people arranged beforehand, we still have to annihilate the monsters and the bandits first, right?

I wonder, shouldn’t I be more worried about whether that expenditure goes well?

No, if I said I would do it, I would surely do it without fail.

More importantly, what about the reward? Hey, where is my reward?

Being restless, I begin wandering behind Rithina who is preparing to send the letter.

However, Rithina doesn’t bring up the subject of the reward.

Eh?

Don’t tell me, she hasn’t forgotten about it or anything, right?

Maybe I shouldn’t stay behind her and move in front of her and start appealing some more?

Rithina puts the letter into the envelope and finishes sealing it with a stamp while I am worrying about my options.

Calm down, me.

The reward will surely come after this.

Only due to my anticipation, I straighten my somewhat slouching posture and face Rithina.

Doki-doki.

[Haruto-kun]

[Ye-yes!]

Even my voice becomes excited after being called out by Rithina.

I have been telling you, I’m not a dog, me!

[Then, shall we begin today’s study?]

I let out a considerably hysteric voice towards the words which I couldn’t believe to have departed from Rithina’s mouth.

No-no-no, wait. This is strange.

Look, today, I have definitely been deciphering the letter for a whole day, you know.

Thanks to that, I have managed to understand the subject of the letter and have generally accepted Rithina’s proposal.

Everything, I have done everything for the sake of the reward. Yes.

And yet, is she saying that we are going study during the night too?

No-no, she’s kidding, there is no way…

No way… that’s absurd…

This is a protest. I should voice my objection with a resolute determination.

Such injustice cannot possibly be permitted.

[Well… to-today is already… still…?]

[That’s because today will be a special session, you know]

Rithina says something with some deep meaning when I try to raise a protest. She also takes out a little box from the luggage that she bought today when she went out with everyone.

[S… special session?]

I wonder in what way?

My gaze focuses down on a small box held by Rithina.

And then, this little box is flipped open.

[T-this is… Glasses!?]

The thing inside the little box, it’s the glasses.

Even if they look unfashionable with their thick black rim, those are unmistakably glasses.

I have never seen anyone in this world wearing glasses at all.

I don’t know the exact reason. Though I think it’s because there are no people with extremely bad sight. They are correcting their eyesight by subconsciously strengthening their physical abilities with magical power, I suppose.

No, such inquiries do not matter at the moment.

The most important thing now is the fact that there are glasses here.

[Although I had them be made in a hurry, do they have the same shape as what Haruto-kun described?]

Said Rithina.

As what I described…

Now that she mentioned it, I did say something along the line of “If Rithina wears glasses, she will look more like a female teacher” when Rithina-sensei was teaching me around one week ago.

I remember that we have talked about this and that in regards to the form of the glasses at that time.

I see. So she was paying attention to our conversation at that time, and then she had them expressly made?

Jiiin.

I am feeling somewhat happy.

[They are really good]

[Is that so? I’m glad. Fufu]

It is because I looked strange as I was deeply moved inside? Or is it something else? Rithina shows me an extraordinary smiles.

I want to hold Rithina and bring her to bed just for that smile alone.

However, this is where I will be patient.

I take out the glasses from the small box and look over their details.

Is it because they have been made in rush? Or is there no technology to work on fine details? The part which hangs the glasses on the ears doesn’t seem to fold.

Their shape is completely fixed.

Well, it’s not like it damages their appearance as glasses, but it will be difficult to store them like that.

The lens are properly inserted into the glasses.

No, seeing as how it doesn’t look like the lens are made with glass, should I still call them “lens”? Oh well, whatever.

Even so, how admirable of her to be able to reproduce the glasses which I described based only on my verbal explanation to such an extent.

Awesome.

[Then, I’ll wear it immediately]

[Ah, yes. Please do]

Although I was in trance while looking at the glasses, I came to my senses due to Rithina’s words, and handed her the glasses.

Rithina puts on the glasses now.

Ooh, awesome.

The impression of an enigmatic female teacher.

Though I’m kinda prejudiced because my teacher in the sixth grade of elementary school was wearing eyeglasses at that time, but anyone who just wears glasses will be totally seen as teacher to me.

[H-how… is it?]

Feeling a little bit nervous, Rithina asks about my impression with an upward glance.

At this moment, I have understood what I have to say.

… No, simple flattery or a stereotyped compliment won’t cut it, I should say what I feel from the bottom of my heart.

[They really suit you, You look the most charming than ever]

[I-is that so? Thank you.

B-but, what a mysterious feeling. Fufufu]

Even if she is told that they suit her, she might not understand it. Is it because the item called “glasses” is not popular here, I wonder?

However, Rithina’s face still blushes a little. She goes full “deredere” mode.

Yep, she is so cute.

[T-then, shall we start studying now?]

[Yes. I understand… Ah, that’s right]

[? What is it?]

Rithina switches from the “dere mode” to the “teacher mode” and tries to start a lesson now, but suddenly I get hit by an idea.

[Please wait for a moment]

I say to Rithina and then move to the one of our small rooms in the hotel.

In the hotel we are staying at, there are three rooms besides the large room with the bed.

We will go to one of the rooms to hold a lesson eventually, so I go to the room where our baggage is placed and get something from the bag.

After that, I return back to the large room with the coveted item.

[Rithina-sama. Please hold this during the study session]

I hand over that item to Rithina.

[Is this … a whip?]

Yes, the whip. The one which teachers use.

Since I don’t have the teaching stick, so I decided to substitute it with the short whip that I have stolen from the room in the basement in the Royal Capital.

Rithina is wearing glasses and holds a whip.

This is amazing.

From any angles I see her, she looks like a female teacher.

When she hold the whip in her right hand and bends it a little with her left hand, she looks way too perfect.

[Whip… a whip…

Ha-Haruto-kun, for you to having such hobby…

But, this might also be good… Maybe…]

While I’m being fascinated with Rithina the female teacher, she voices a small complaint as she holds the whip.

Eh? Eh?

Rithina-san, aren’t you misunderstanding something?

[Ano… Rithina-sama?

The purpose for having you hold that whip is…]

Apparently, we produced a weird misunderstanding. When I try to say something to resolve it, the back of my hand is stricken with a *swoosh*.

It hurts, you know?!

[Haruto-kun. During the studying, whispering is forbidden.

Sit down on the chair quickly]

Hii.

Rithina’s switch has been flipped.

Being overwhelmed by this mysterious intimidation, I sit on the chair like I was told.

Is this is the power of glasses, I wonder?

Looking at me who obediently followed her order, Rithina’s face is blushing like she is in daze.

It’s totally like… there is a new door was opened inside Rithina.

Her class has changed from the Princess to the Queen.

[Now, first, start writing from this sentences.

…. Nevertheless, it’s very hot today]

While giving instructions to me, Rithina say that and unfastens the button on the clothes, exposing her cleavage.

No-no, although it’s certainly hot today, isn’t there some other reason that you are feeling hot right now?

That aside, Rithina is currently wearing glasses, exposing her cleavage, and also holding whip in her hand.

Uwaa, this is amazing.

When I am looking at her appearance, my hand is suddenly stricken against the desk by Rithina.

[I told you to write the sentences down, where do you think you looking at?]

It surprised me.

S-so scary-yy.

Even her tone is changing for some reason.

It’s like she is really a Queen. Of a different kind.

“I want her to abuse me like a pig more”…

No, as expected I just can’t say it.

The angry Rithina brings her face close to me.

She shows a smile like she is enjoying it, she looks incredibly erotic and captivating.

And then, her breast also comes near if it’s the most natural thing.

So close, so close, so close.

If you go on like this, I’ll see end up seeing it, you know.

There is no reason for me not to see it.

Wait, what with this situation? Is it “candy and whip” kind of situation?

But… I still think that it’s still not that bad.

[Haruto-kun is also feeling hot, right?

For every one subject you solve, I’ll unfasten one button]

As she says that, Rithina brushes gently the tip of the whip she is holding in her hand across my cheek.

Hiiii….?!

Why? I was just being patted with the tip of a whip, why am I getting thrilled?

Am I gonna see the heights that I have never seen yet?

This feeling, it kinda remind me of something.

I wonder what it was.

However, my study session with Rithina has advanced without me having time to remember it clearly.

Two hours later.

I persisted till the end during the one hour of language studies as well as one more hour of physical studies. Then today’s session ended.

Rithina has also exhausted her strength during physical studies, and is now peacefully sleeping on the prepared sofa.

It’s indeed a full-packed two hours.

While we were at it, Celes entered in with the drinks. She then instantly made a U-turn and went out.

It seems she has been compromised, that girl.

In any case, there is Celes’s case to consider, and I just remembered that feeling that I felt at the beginning.

It’s “that”.

The sense I felt when I was being stepped on by Laurier.

I see, it’s that kind of feeling.

When I was correcting Rithina’s clothes, I was thinking about something.

If I obtain some money, I should try to make the high-heeled shoes.
