Academy Slave Instructor

155 – Dating

Dating

Diana is sitting in front of the fountain in the square.

A martial arts competition is in progress at the academy, so there are no academy students on the street.

If outsiders were allowed, it would have become a quiet street with no people in sight.

Unlike the clothes she wore at the academy, Diana, dressed in a fancy outfit, is rubbing her thighs with her palms, as if her thighs are cold in a slightly short skirt.

“Ah! It’s too much to keep you waiting since the first date.”

As her rai appears, Diana jumps up and points her finger at her.

“You guys just have a day off, but I have a working day. It’s hard to miss a lecturer.”

“Ahahahahaha, that’s right. Then did you sneak out?”

“It took a few people, but they won’t say anything.”

“I’m thrilled that you’re sneaking out on a date with me.”

Diana smiles and puts her arms around her Rai’s.

“Where are you going?”

“Eh- You went out on a date with a pretty lady and didn’t decide beforehand?”

“You said let’s go.”

As her rai furrows her eyebrows, Diana smiles brightly and rests her head on her shoulder.

“hehehe, just kidding. I’ve got everything planned, from the restaurant to the inn! Just follow me.”

“I can’t go to the inn.”

“Why? I’m an adult.”

“Where is the instructor sleeping with the academy student?”

“Everyone is shushing, but there must be. And Raicang is the type to do that.”

Diana looks up at her enchantingly, she laughs to herself, then walks briskly, dragging her rai.

The commonality between the two is that they are sociable.

As two people who are acquainted with not only the academy but also many people in the city walk, they recognize and talk to everyone passing by.

“Diana, are you dating? Uncle Rai is different.”

“Oh, oh… The combination of Mr. Rai and Ms. Diana is amazing.”

“Mr. Rai, eat this and go!”

The two are sociable, but surprisingly, they have never been together, so people are amazed at the two of them.

Catching everyone’s attention, Diana drags Rai into the restaurant.

This is a high-end restaurant with a reasonable price range.

“Welcome, Miss Diana. Mr. Rai is also here. Let me take you to your reserved seat.”

Raigai didn’t come to this restaurant often, but the manager, whom she had run into several times on the street, recognized the two and guided them inside.

Diana arrives at a luxurious chair and a spotless white tablecloth, and when she tries to sit down, Rai approaches and pulls her chair away.

“What, if you’re this kind, you’ll fall in love. Are you trying to flirt with me?”

“It’s a date. At least you have to respect the other person.”

“Ohhh… She’s also good at flirting with women.”

“Where did you learn that?”

Diana orders with her bright smile and waits for her food.

Leaning her upper body toward her lie across from her and leaning her chin with her hands, she chatters and talks variously.

She talks about a lot of things these days, such as what’s delicious, the story of a certain academy student, and rumors about instructors, but she replies moderately and continues the conversation. Lai notices that she doesn’t talk about herself.

She is as bright and talkative as the summer sun, but when it comes to herself, she never confides a word.

When her food is served, Diana stands up and enjoys her taste with a happy expression on her face.

“Hmmm- it’s so soft.”

Unlike her facial expression that expresses her emotions with all her might, her gestures are restrained and elegant.

From the way she uses a knife and fork to her upright posture when she looks at her eyes or food, she is infused with high-class manners and even looks noble.

At the same time, he had an innocent smile, so people could love him.

“That’s how you made it.”

But Rai sneers and wipes her mouth with her napkin.

Diana shrugs her eyebrows at his words and smiles, then eats another piece of food.

Slow, yet graceful hand movements are movements that cannot be made without training.

Diana puts down her fork and knife and dabs her lips with her napkin.

“Since I’ve filled my stomach a little, shall we move on to the next course? Aren’t you excited about what I’ll prepare next?”

“I said it was my first date, so I’ll go to the theater.”

“Ouch- I just got goosebumps. How did you know?”

Diana deftly pretends to be surprised, then she looks at Rai with a curious expression.

“You must have done a lot of research. But among the many options, an experience with few variables and easy consensus formation like theater is safe. You’re the type who doesn’t like adventure.”

After hearing all of her Rai’s words, Diana pouted her lips and nodded her head.

“Did Raicang stalk me? How do you know so well?”

“Because I can see it.”

“But no one sees me as the type who doesn’t like adventure. Rather, it’s the opposite. ‘Diana! What if I just try it?’, ‘Diana is stubborn sometimes.’, ‘Isn’t Diana too brave?’ Everyone tells you to be calm, but Raicang is different.”

Diana giggles and mimics her vocal chords.

However, Rai said with a nonchalant expression.

“Planned madness is different from real madness. I don’t even call it courage to challenge what is judged possible.”

“Hmm- the more I talk, the more I feel scolded. Please be nicer to your date.”

“Yes? Then I will praise you.”

“Yeah! I want that. Praise me a lot.”

As Diana looked forward with her eyes shining, Rai looked at her for a moment before opening her mouth.

“So far, you’ve worked hard. You’ve worked hard.”

“……”

Diana was speechless at Rai’s unexpected praise.

The feeling of her crying is caught in her heart, and she smiles as if it will show on her face if she relaxes even a little.

“The compliments are so meager. Yes! Next is the plain, ordinary theater Laycan expected. Let’s go.”

Ray and Diana go into a theater to see a play.

It was a simple heroic story about defeating a dragon and saving a village, but it was a play that focused on the relationship between the characters rather than the heroic aspect, so it showed a variety of human groups.

It’s not a cool story in

, But it was fun to see each character’s story acting according to their feelings for each other and personal beliefs.

The audience is immersed in the stories of the characters, each admiring or shedding tears.

But in this scene, everyone holds their breath and looks at the stage.

This is a scene in which the main character and her lover are making love.

It’s usually a scene passed by the narrator’s words, but in the theater company, it was expressed by mixing a s*x scene with a soft dance, perhaps aiming for topicality.

The problem is that almost naked actors are running around the stage, so the audience fixes their eyes on the stage as if they don’t want to miss anything.

When everyone is concentrating on the stage, including the man with his eyes wide open and the woman who is shyly covering her eyes but showing bloodshot eyes between her fingers, Diana leans her head on Rai’s shoulder and whispers:

“It wasn’t for nothing that children were banned from entering.”

“Did you pick this one as well?”

“hahahahaha, I’m not that raunchy person. There’s something Raikang might like.”

As she laughs, a trembling vibration travels over her rai’s shoulder.

“Is Laykang standing?”

“……He said he wasn’t a naughty person. Was he just a pervert?”

“No, no. It’s a strange feeling. Everyone is excited while watching the stage right now.”

Diana, who was looking up, turned around and said.

“So you’re saying that all the men here are standing? Doesn’t it feel strange?”

“That’s something I hate to imagine.”

“But it’s an instinct I can’t help. This is the reality.”

“At least I calmed down because you told me.”

If Rai’s words are funny, Diana bursts into laughter, so she puts her mouth on his shoulder and giggles.

The man next to her looks at him strangely, but she tries to keep her voice down as she shakes her body as if she can’t hold back her laughter.

“Lai-kang… Keuheu-heup, it’s really fun.”

Diana, with tears in her eyes, smiles as she wipes her eyes with her fingers.

After her play, Diana comes out and pats Lai Kang on the shoulder as if she feels better.

“It was really fun. I think the choice of the play was the best. I especially like the lines of Laycan.”

“I wasn’t an actor.”

Diana slaps Rai on the shoulder once more, dragging him to her watchtower.

Since it is used for military purposes, it was of course locked, but Diana said that there was a door leading to her back, so she went inside.

“No matter how you look at it, it’s not a door.”

“Yeah~ It’s the door when you go inside.”

Saying that, Diana climbed through her window, where her bars were torn, and entered.

Raido, who looked around with an embarrassed expression, went inside and the two of them went up the circular stairs.

“I don’t want to get caught on a date.”

“It’s okay, it’s okay. The guards will understand if you say you’re here for a date.”

“Are there guys who break into the watchtower for a date?”

“Of course. This is Legandia, where the academy is located. It’s a place full of mischievous people who are hung up on love.”

Diana said that and opened her door.

A cool breeze blows and the panoramic view of Legandia as the sun goes down spreads out wide.

Diana smiles at the foreground of her amber tint, tucking her windblown hair behind her ear and watching her lie.

“How is it? Isn’t it great? This is the best place to see Legandia.”

“The spire of the Rutheria church is also nice to see.”

“What’s wrong, they told me that they were invading the watchtower, and then Raikang went up without permission.”

Laughing at Rai’s answer, Diana leaned against the railing and looked at the city.

“You know… I love getting compliments.”

“You want more compliments?”

“No, no. You’ve already been praised by Raikang. A compliment that no one has ever given you…”

Diana’s afterwords fade as she chews on her words at her restaurant.

Looking at the beautiful city view, her eyes look sad.

“I was praised for the first time when I was 5 years old. When I wielded a sword I had never learned before, the instructors praised me. They said that a genius had appeared in the Deshbela family, and that I should teach them rather than my useless older brother.”

As Rai lit her cigarette and leaned next to her, Diana, who glanced at her, continued her words.

“Actually, I’ve seen my brother learn again and again. Then he practiced in his room. Again and again and again… Her nanny would tell her that she was hurt when she saw her, so she secretly swung her sword. .”

“……”

“And I showed it to the instructors who were teaching her brother. Actually, I wanted to say that I practiced, but the instructors liked it so much that I couldn’t tell them because I was overwhelmed. That’s how the lie of being a lazy genius was born.”

Diana looks at Rai.

She bit her lip and hesitated for a moment before opening her mouth again.

“It’s all excuses. The 5-year-old Diana was too sweet for people’s respect, envy, and compliments. I fell in love with sweetness that I had never tasted before, so I kept trying to avoid people’s eyes. You don’t smoke, do you?”

“I don’t smoke next to people who don’t smoke.”

At Rai’s reply, who was only biting her cigarette, she laughed as Diana’s eyes widened.

“Don’t say things like you’ll fall in love with me. I’m obsessed with hard work, and I’m an introvert, so it’s tiring to be involved with me.”

“Tell me more about you.”

As she tries to change the subject again with her lighthearted mood, her rai meets her eyes.

Diana smiles a little at her indifferent but penetrating eyes, and turns her gaze to the city.

“It’s not a very funny story, and there are no particularly funny episodes. It’s just that Diana tried to avoid people’s eyes, and she just tried.”

“……”

“Kids sweating hard and working hard in the scorching sun are cool, but kids who do well while doing nothing are also cool. I think I wanted to be that kind of kid. I’m relaxed and lazy in front of people… I tried. Ah! Thanks for telling me to go to sleep.”

Recalling the story Rai told her during her tactical training, Diana sighs lightly as she smiles.

“I’m a greedy and sinister child. Anyway… Last year, I worked really hard. I thought that if I entered the martial arts competition, I would face Violet or Sojeta. I wanted to win somehow.”

Diana looks at the city with her eyes, which she loses her focus for a moment, as she reminisces.

“I’m proud of myself for working harder than anyone else. And when I beat Violet, it was so good that I wanted to run wild. You beat the equipment of a thousand years! You did it! By the way… By the way… Is there something Violet really likes?”

Diana’s eyes are watery.

“I definitely won… Violet congratulated me on the day I won, hugged me with a bright smile and asked me about the sword with innocent eyes… It was completely different from the ugly me. I felt it then. Ah, I as a human being. You lost to Violet.”

Diana’s tears run down her cheeks. With her trembling voice, she forces herself to speak her words.

“And I lost this year.

The dignified and confident Diana was nowhere to be found.

Diana, who has become a child with her tears pouring out, sniffs her nose and bows her head.

Her gleaming blue hair falls proudly over her drooping shoulders.

Rai looked at her silently and stroked her hair.

“I had a hard time.”

“……”

“Now I don’t have to be shy.”

Diana looks up at her rai.

“You’re a loser, so you can do what you want now. You can train as you like without paying attention to others, or even if you don’t listen to people and focus on your own work, no one will say anything. You don’t have to forcefully peel off your calluses.”

“……”

“I don’t know if it will take a few years, but I’m going to win again. If I win, I’ll praise you.”

Diana, who looked at her wordlessly, wiped away her tears with a sound that sounded like an empty laugh.

A cracked voice came through her mouth.

“You’ve been working hard so far, so you’re telling me to work harder?”

“Isn’t that what you do best?”

“Right… That’s right.”

Stealing under her nose, Diana nods her head and holds out her arms.

“Hug her and keep stroking her hair.”

“There are many demands.”

“I’m a fool, so if I don’t keep praising myself, I’ll get sick and die.”

In her arms, Diana buries her face in her chest and does not show her expression.
