"How did it go, did you manage to take some pictures?" (Huh? Who is she talking to? Can't be me.)
Suddenly you hear Lucy speak next to you.
"Y-Yeah." (Woah, she was here?)
"Cool, thanks for doing that."
"Mm." (Should I say something?)
"Umm... good morning Lucy?"
"A-A-Ah... G-G-Good m-morning."
"Ah, right, I guess there wouldn't have been a suitable moment for her to let you know I saw her after bringing you to your class and told her to follow you in and take the photos I promised to Becky for me." (Oh, so that's what happened.)
"Anyway, keep it for now and show them to Becky when she gets here, I'm kind of busy so I might not have a chance to do that."
"O-Okay."
"Cool, let's get going, Sophie wants to see you for a bit next." (Oh, Sophie, Ruth said she's the principal here didn't she? I wonder what kind of person she is.)
Nina leads you into a room and you hear someone say "Welcome! Thanks for bringing him here." (Oh, it's her. She sounds more awake now.)
"Anytime."
"He can sit there." (Is she Sophie? I'm not hearing anyone else around so most likely. I'm not sure how I feel about her potentially being the principal.)
Nina leads you to a chair that you then sit on.
After clearing her voice a bit Sophie speaks "You've now had your first class of many more to come and now as the principal of this place I'll get to have a serious talk about the wonderfulness of this academy and why you should really appreciate the classes you'll have!"
(Alright, sounds somewhat serious, but wording it like that, using wonderfulness and such, makes it sound less so but in general she does sound more mature and principal like now than in our previous interactions, presumably on account of importance of whatever she's going to tell me.)
"You love the person who brought you here, yes?" (Pretty much though being asked about it so directly is embarrassing.)
You nod.
"Great, so the foremost goal here is to help you love and be loved by her more. As such everything being taught here in some way is about that. In your reports you should explain how well each thing you've done or learned has helped with that."
(So, for example for the yoga class I just had I should talk about how and why I believe it helps us love each other? Which I'd currently assume to do so by giving us an activity we can share and do together.)
"Do you understand?" (The report part probably but as this is probably important I should make sure and ask a few questions.)
"Maybe, what does helping me be loved mean?"
"Excellent question which we will delve into for one of your classes. But to put it simply we teach you things that the person who brought you here has requested for you to learn."
"Alright, does that mean without her I wouldn't be able to come here?"
"Not exactly, we do also accept men without an existing loved one who simply wish to improve themselves but obviously the experience will be slightly different for them." (Interesting though probably irrelevant to me.)
"I see, so for the report writing I'd explain how I've improved thanks to a class or what?"
"To put it another way in your reports you should explain what do you believe her reasoning for wanting you to learn each thing you've learnt is, if you can't explain how and why you should learn something have you really learnt that thing?" (Makes sense, so something like "I believe you want me to do yoga because it's a healthy activity we could do together." or such.)
"Now do you understand?"
"I think so."
"Good. Another important thing is that each week will introduce a few classes that you will be tested on Friday."
"That's when we'll also gauge how ready and suitable you are for the next week classes so we can focus them appropriately. So make sure to study well and pay attention to your lessons."
"There will be rewards if you don't do too badly."
"So does that mean there will be some sort of yoga test?" (I wonder, other than yoga what classes will this week introduce?)
"Yep." (Interesting, I wonder how will that work.)
"Alright."
"I think that's it for the serious talk. Applause please."
Nina starts clapping and after some hesitation you follow suit. (Really? Anyway so she really is the principal here, I assume Ruth is the one actually taking care of most things.)
"Thank you. Now how about I teach you a fun song to sing. Listen carefully." She start singing a song happily.
"Happy life, happy life I live a happy life full of fluffiness and fun."
"Luruluu lailailai."
"I smile, I laugh, I dance and I do all in name of happiness."
"Luruluu lailailai."
"There is no lack of fun or smiles when living a happy life."
"Luruluu lailailai."
"Luli-lulaa lila-lila-lila-liiiiii."
"Luli-lulaa lila-lila-lila-liiiiii."
"Now you sing it." (That's such a silly song but alright.)
"Happy life, happy life..."
"Uhh,"
"Keep going!"
"I live happily in fluffiness and fun."
"Luruluu lailailai."
"I smile, I laugh, I dance... in name of happiness."
"Luruluu lailailai."
"There is no lack of fun."
"Luruluu lailailai."
"Luli-lulaa lila-lila-lila-liiiiii."
"Luli-lulaa lila-lila-lila-liiiiii."
"Good, I'll sing it again and next try to just keep going without pausing, the exact words aren't that important."
She repeats the song and makes you do the same a few times until you can smoothly sing it to the end even when slightly messing up the lyrics.
"... Luli-lulaa lila-lila-lila-liiiiii!"
"Well done, you should sing that occasionally to yourself, your voice could still use some work but you'll get there."
"Uhh, alright."
"I mean it, it'll make you happy and feel great!" (I'm not really convinced but I suppose I could consider it if a suitable moment to sing it comes by.)
"That's it from me for now, we'll have some fun again later today but for now you're free to go."
Nina takes your hand and leads you out of the room.
"So, next up... Oh, Becky, hi!"
"Good morning!"
Becky says cheerfully and you hear her walk closer.
"You're earlier than I expected."
"Well yeah, I couldn't wait to come here just a bit earlier today."
"Also nice to see Lucy already here."
"Good morning..."
"Nice timing, he was just about to go eat, I assume you wouldn't mind helping him with that?"
"I'd like that yes."
"Cool, I'll leave it to you and Lucy then. If that's fine with you?"
"It's f-f-fine."
"Great, bring him to Cheryl when you're done."
"Alright."
Nina walks off and leaves the room.
"I'll be right with you 53 let me just take off my jacket first."
She walks off to somewhere nearby and sounds to take off her jacket and leave it along with something else somewhere in the room.
She comes back to you, takes your hand, leads you through a door to another room and makes you sit down. The chair underneath you and the table in front of you feel familiar.
(This seems like the same place where I ate lasagna and salad at yesterday.)
While moving around preparing things she asks
"Alright, today I've got spinach soup does that sound okay to you?"
"Yeah."
She sits down next to you.
"Great, open up!"
While feeding you she asks.
"So, how were your first classes? Did you like them."
"Mm."
You swallow the thick soup and say
"Not bad, the teacher is... interesting and moving my body around is nice."
"I'm glad."
"I took pictures!"
"Oh, that's great. I hope you'll show them to me later on."
"I w-w-will."
She continues feeding you.
"Did you sleep well?"
"Surprisingly so, zero light and noise made it about as good of a sleep as I'd have gotten at home."
"That's great to hear."
"Breakfast was nice too, porridge and an egg."
"Saw or well heard Ruth and Sophie while there, Sophie sounded barely awake."
(Before she starts worrying about it I should mention having gone to a bathroom.)
"Also, uhh, Nina helped me go to bathroom in the morning."
"Just, you know, saying that... in case you wanted to know."
"I see, that's great, and well thank you for telling me." She pats your head.
"Alright, we've still got some time so how about looking at those photos Lucy?"
"Oh, o-okay."
For a while they sound to do just that without saying much.
"You did great! Keep up the good work."
"Ah, o-okay."
"Actually how about you take some more right away."
"O-Okay."
Becky hugs you, you smile and assume Lucy's taking photos.
"Alright, we should get going now."
(Nina said next would be Cheryl, I wonder what kind of class or activity she'll have for me.)
I really like this story, it really is something unique. I just hope author-san doesn't turn the MC into a sissy. A caring boyfriend who doesn't lose himself, yes, no prob.
But I also have some quips with it, how old is the MC supposed to be? His thoughts and actions often seem like someone between 14 and 20 the most. Also how big is his body? Ruth being able to pick up an adult guy without effort should be impossible. Also, he is pupil no. 53 but I often have the impression that the "schools" personnel doesn't really know how to act and what to do, they honestly come over as ex-whore's who changed jobs to something more comfortable. In fact it often sounds as if they were there to study and improve themselves.
Anyway, I really hope the story continues and that the riddles get cleared.
In general I also would love to have more background info. How old are the MC and his GF, how long are they together (why don't they live together, yet, job?), how many past relationships did they have aka how experienced are they, did the GF have a bad experience with a past lover that's why she decided to send him there and why is she (they) are okay with him doing sexual stuff at the "school" (no problems, hopefully it gets much more "degenerated" in that department)?
Oh, and also, what's this with the need to pee once or twice a day and pooping every few days? Is he physically sick? That's far from enough.
@Spiritogre the pooing is possible, from once or twice a day to once a week is medically acceptable. The peeing? it sounds he is a bit dehydrated
Yeah I feel same way as @Spiritogre. I request author to release more chapters as story pacing is too slow and too little info. has been released till now. I am especially interested in horrifying but interesting tags placed in story "Hypnotism","Mind Break","Yandere." How the hell story has any of that although I understand mc is in strange situation but story has only given fluffy vibes not as serious as those tags. Heck not a single proper R-18 scene is involved. I don't understand what are author's intentions about course and tag description that has been already put which sounds shady yet nothing of sort has happened. While we must keep in mind story is in process of being written from around 2 years as per this site according to which pacing of story is too slow. I kind of have mixed opinion on story as it sounded interesting for me to give it a read but I am quite disappointed at lack of any significant development and don't know whether I should Praise author or be sad at so many disappointments.
Oh well coming back to earlier, I am also interested in knowing what those dresses he is wearing actually are as they sound Mysterious and what is course all about and why all girls involved are too helping to mc, that is also weird especially Becky. I really wish for author to write more and I hope to see more of this story.
"I just hope author-san doesn't turn the MC into a sissy." I hope so too, I at least won't ever have the MC be called one but I do greatly enjoy some(but not all) aspects of stories where that does happen. Also thanks for the feedback, will clarify some things later.
@UzumakiNaruto
story pacing is too slow
if you mean updates are too infrequent then yeah I would like to update more often but if you're saying it should have taken less words to reach this point regardless of how long it took then to an extent I agree and do plan to revisit some of the earlier chapters to remove some of the scenes that won't lead to much and provide bit more info faster but overall it seems about right to me.
