After that, I stopped by a magic shop and bought three beginner's magic textbooks, and gave one each to Rio, Iris, and Maifa.

　After finishing our meal at the town restaurant, we left the town gate and headed back to the village.

I ate, I ate, I ate, I'm so full.

I'm not sure what to make of this. I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that.

　I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one.

　It's a great way to make sure you're getting the most out of your money.

　In the midst of all this, one Iris tugged at the sleeve of my dress and gave me a worried, apologetic look.

...... But doctor, are you sure you want to do this?　We've been treated so well ...... by you, and you've paid a lot of money ...... for us, haven't you?

　It's a beautiful blonde haired, blue-eyed girl who looks up at me like that.
　What is this, it's so cute.

　Also, as expected of Iris, even though she's just a child, she cares for you like an angel.
　I'd like to give Maifa a taste of her own medicine.

　But, well...

"Oh, no, no, no, don't worry about it. You'll pay for it with your body.

"What? ......

　When Iris heard my words, she whisked away from me at high speed like a wild rabbit.

　I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that. ......?

　In the event that you have any questions regarding where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site.

　On the other hand, Maifa, who has taken the same distance, is giving me a look.

"...... brother, please elaborate on what you mean by 'pay with your body'.

　Oh.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'm not. I was just thinking that one day I'll earn some money from my job as a demon hunter and get it back to you.

"...... Well, that's what I thought.

　Maifa sighed huffily.
　I'm not sure what to make of this.

　I've paid for food and haircuts for the three of us, clothes, weapons, and magic textbooks, and that's a pretty big chunk of money.

　And in the future, if there is any need, I will have no choice but to pay for a while.

　However, I am not a parent of three, and it is not a healthy relationship for a teacher to pay for a student's upbringing and materials.
　However, I don't think it would be possible for me to apply to the association as a necessary expense for education.

　However, without a certain amount of educational materials, it is impossible to provide adequate education, and without enough food, clothing, and shelter, it is impossible to provide education.
　In order to raise Rio and his family properly, there are certain expenses that are necessary at the very least.

　So I was thinking of a little trick.

　When I was a teacher in the capital, I couldn't do it because of the noise from the association and parents, and the large number of students I was taking care of, but now, in this environment, I can do it.

　That is to say, once Rio and the three of them are raised to a certain level, they can actually do the job of a Demon Lord Hunter for practical training.

　In this way, they would be able to kill two birds with one stone, gaining experience in actual combat and earning money.

　If I, as the teacher, keep an eye on them, I can take cover immediately in case of danger, and the danger is minimal.

　However, even if they are all geniuses, it would be premature to make them do it at this stage.

　The strength of demon lords varies from one to another, but they are generally more formidable than ordinary monsters.
　They often lead herds of monsters, so even a weak demon lord can hurt you if you underestimate him.

　Well, after teaching them some basics, I guess I'll start by familiarizing them with normal monsters that aren't Demon Lords...

　With that in mind, I wandered with the three girls along the night road leading to the village.


　.


　We eventually arrived at the village.

　When we arrived in front of the teacher's residence, my new home, Rio and the other three girls walked away and waved at me.

"Well, see you tomorrow, bro. Thanks for everything today.

"Thank you for the food today, Sensei. And thank you for the gift. I'll treasure it.

...... See you tomorrow, big brother. ...... It was fun today.

　Then the three of them tried to leave towards the ramshackle hut known as the brave academy building, but...

I'm not sure what to say. Where do you think you're going?

　I call out to my three pupils.

"......?　Where are you going? I'm going home.

　Rio replied, and I pointed to the teacher's residence in front of us.

I pointed to the faculty housing in front of me. This is where you'll be living from today.

""What?"

"What?

　Is that ......?
　Didn't we talk about this yet?

Because this house is big enough for a family, it's too good for one person. When I made you clean the house with me this morning, I meant that it's your house too, so let's clean it up.

But the reward for cleaning is food and a bath.

　But the reward for cleaning was food and bath.
　I thought it would be easier to catch Rio and the others at that stage.

"Anyway, from today on, you're going to live in this house. It's better to sleep in a bed than in a shack with a blanket.

Yeah, that's true, but ......

　Rio looked at Iris and Maifa.
　All three of them looked as if they didn't know what to do.

　What are you confused about?


　I wonder if he's being shy.

　I was about to tell him that there was no need to be shy...

　Rio stepped forward and asked me.

"Hey, bro.

What is it?

"Why don't you come live with us and do something for ...... us?

　No.
　I shrugged my shoulders.

　I don't know if I trust you that much, ........

You know, I'd never do that. I'm a teacher.

I'm a teacher. - No, because if I'm not careful, you're going to hug me again.

"............

　That's crazy.
　There's nothing to deny.
　I'm in trouble.

　The two sides continued to stare at each other for a while.

　But it was Meifa who came to the rescue.

...... Your brother's a real pain in the ass.

　I'm not sure what to do, but I'm sure I'm not the only one.
　What the ......?

　And when Maifa came right in front of me...

　And when she got right in front of me...
　She wrapped her arms around my waist and hugged me with her soft but untamed body.

"Oh, hey, Maifa, ......!

What would you do, ...... pedophile brother, if someone did this to you?

What would you do? I wouldn't do anything.

　I don't want to hug you and pat you on the head, that's for sure.
　I'm not.

　But Maifa smiled a mischievous smile and...

　This time, she stretched her arms around my neck.

"...... pedophile brother, would you like to ...... have some fun with me?

　She then blew on my neck and brought her body even closer to mine.
　You are still a young girl, but your gesture is very seductive.

　I...

I'm not sure what you're trying to do here.

　I'm not sure if you've seen this before, but I'm sure you have.
　I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not.

"Ouch. ......

"Oh ......, that's bad .......

　I held out my hand to her and she took it without hesitation.

...... No, it's fine. ...... Rather, as planned.

　I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do it.

I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one who's a pedophile.

　...... Hey.

　And don't call me a slacker.
　And don't call me a slacker, call me a teacher with self-control.

　But what about Rio and Iris?

"Oh, well, I guess you're right. Okay, then.

"Yeah. I'd sleep in a bed if I could. ......

　That kind of made sense to me.
　And even Iris, the angel of my heart, went straight to the heart of the matter.

　...... Oh well.
　I'm a little confused, but it's a small matter before a big one.

All right, you three, go home and get some sleep for today. We'll train you hard tomorrow.

"Yes, sir.

　Anyway, that's how it went.

　From that day on, I began to live under the same roof with my three students.
