Atelier Tanaka – Volume 3 Chapter 4 Part 5

Baronage


I returned to my dorm room with Edita Sensei.

We were standing in the doorway to the living room. Sophia-chan’s face was pale as she stared at the blonde loli beside me. Ester-chan was also there and her face went stiff when she saw Edita Sensei. Sophia-chan was trembling.

“U-Um, t-that elf, is she…the one from the other day?”

Ester-chan met Edita Sensei before when she came to tell me about the elixir of youth.

“Yeah, this is Edita-san. She’s my alchemy teacher.”

“…oi.”

As soon as I said ‘teacher’ Edita Sensei voiced her complaints.

But she has been teaching me, so what am I supposed to say?

A loli teacher…how wonderful. My hope for reverse rape is growing stronger.

“Whatever you want me to call you, the fact is that you’ve taught me a lot.”

“Hmph”

She turned away from me and puffed out her cheeks.

“It’s nice to meet you. My name is Elizabeth FitzClarence.”

I feel like this is the first time I’ve heard her use her full name.

And she even gave her real name, not her nickname ‘Ester.

She’s coming right out of the gate with a full-strength attack.

Especially considering she used her family name. She usually doesn’t like to use her family name. The only time I can really remember her using it for something seemingly insignificant was when Sophia-chan was being bullied in the cafeteria.

Ester-chan’s got the wrong idea.

Edita Sensei is a non-virgin like her. This slut should be able to get along with her.

“…ahem I said FitzClarence.”

“I don’t know what that means, but I’m guessing you’re a noble?”

“It’s one of the great noble houses of the Penny Empire….”

“Is that so?”

“….”

They were both staring at each other. One of them was scowling. Ester-chan has shown her aggressive personality before but it’s on an entirely different level today. I love it. I really love it. However, I want her to stop.

If she keeps going, she’ll annoy Edita Sensei and I don’t want her taking her anger out on me.

Sophia-chan was already tearing up just watching this scene.

“O-Oi, what’s with this person….”

What should I say?

Edita Sensei was waiting for my answer.

“I’m sorry. This is my fellow classmate. She lives next door.”

“…I see.”

“So is there a reason this ‘alchemist teacher’ is here?”

“I’m here because of him. I’ll be sleeping here tonight….”

Edita Sensei answered her in a misleading way. I think this was the first time I’ve seen her look unsettled.

As soon as Ester-chan heard this, her face became thirty percent more stern.

“Wha….”

This is turning into a romcom. In an attempt to make the plot more interesting, another heroine enters the fray to cause the main heroine to misunderstand.

If only the heroines still had their hymens.

“I’m sorry for causing you both to misunderstand the situation. Allow me to clear things up.”

I told Ester-chan about the Academic Conference and how the noble mage had invited me. I don’t want either of them to hate each other. I want them to be friends. Especially if that means seeing more of Edita Sensei in my room.

This will be her first time staying here and I don’t want her to feel uncomfortable. She might even decide to go home early. I’d rather she experience Sophia-chan’s warm hospitality.

“…that’s why I invited Edita-san to attend the conference with me tomorrow.”

“Is that really the truth? I-It’s just for the Academic Conference…?”

“Yes.”

“I see….”

As I continued to explain myself, Ester-chan slowly calmed down until she had finally taken a seat on the sofa. I felt sorry for causing her to become so upset.

It’s not like I hate Ester-chan.

But, I’d be perfectly fine with her hating me if it means I get to spend the night with Edita Sensei in her pajamas.

Once again, this is all Allen’s fault. Ester-chan should just go back to worshipping his lower body. He’s the one that broke her hymen so he should be stuck with her for the rest of his life.

If Ester-chan was a virgin, I’d run away with her to a neighbouring country with only the clothes on my back. We could go wherever she wanted. I’d do it with her as much as she wants until she finally gets what she wants and becomes pregnant.

“Oi, i-if there’s a problem, I can just leave and come back in the morning….”

“No, you’ve already walked all the way here.”

Edita Sensei looked cute as panicked after seeing Ester-chan’s reaction.

“But….”

Let’s look at this objectively.

Ester-chan is more likely to start a fight if I allow her to say. While Edita Sensei may allow me to eat her out if I get down on my knees and beg. There’s a clear victor there. Edita Sensei’s passive skill ‘Panty Flasher’ is at an incredibly high level as well. And cunnilingus doesn’t equal sex. My virginity would still be safe.

There’s no chance I’m letting this opportunity slip through my fingers. I’m going to fully enjoy the experience of Edita Sensei sleeping in the room next to me. I’ll even be able to drink her used bath water.

“I’m sorry Ester-san. Edita-san is very important to me.”

“….”

Ester-chan’s entire body trembled as if she were just struck by lightning.

She should be able to understand after this.

“O-Oi, you’re….”

This is a great chance for me to get her to return to Allen.

If that happens, we can hopefully remain friends and she can introduce me to all of her virgin school friends. If I bow my head to her and beg, I bet she’ll do it at least once. And if I want to save my relationship with Sophia-chan, I need to get this lolibitch to reunite with Allen.

“…I u-under…stand.”

“Thank you.”

“….”

After I said this, Ester-chan immediately rose from the sofa.

“U-Um, Ester-sama?”

“I’m…going to return to my room for today. If you’ll excuse me.”

And she ran out of the room.

Slam

The door to the living room slammed shut and I could hear her footsteps fading down the hall.

Eventually, the room fell silent.

“….”

I could feel a sharp pain in my chest.

After seeing her run away like that, I wanted to embrace her. Even if I hate her personality. Even if she’s no longer a virgin. Cute things are cute.

I’d like her to become friends with Edita Sensei, and if the day ever comes when I’m no longer a virgin, I’d definitely want to have a threesome with them.

***

A tragedy has happened this day. The bath has been completely drained.

“….”

How is it possible that it’s completely dry? There’s not even a single strand of hair or drop of water left. How can this be? I allowed her to take a bath first and for what? There’s nothing left.

By the way, Sophia-chan – using her job as my maid as an excuse – has always insisted on taking a bath after me. Thanks to that, I’ve never been able to experience this once-in-a-lifetime event. Ever since we started living together, she’s rejected my idea of switching off on who cleans the bathroom.

I believed that today would be the day. I’d finally realize my dream. But it was all for nothing.

I ended up taking a normal bath.

I dried myself with a combination of a towel and my fireball before returning to the living room.

“Ah, Tanaka-san, dinner’s ready.”

“Thank you, Sophia-san.”

A pleasant smell was subtly tickling my nose. As usual, dinner had been prepared and set out on the table by my maid. Edita Sensei and Sophia-chan seemed to be waiting for me.

“Thank you for waiting.”

“I wouldn’t start eating without the owner present.”

“I really wouldn’t mind.”

“Just sit down already. The food will get cold.”

“Of course.”

Following her direction, I sat down next to her.

Edita Sensei had changed into a nightgown of some sort. Sophia-chan had got it from somewhere. It looked more expensive than the one I had seen her wearing at her home. It was made of an incredibly light material that looked like silk and it had an open collar.

“….”

Edita Sensei’s exposed collarbone is somehow erotic and cute.

Moreover, the gown is rather short and exposes Edita Sensei’s thick thighs.

“…what’s wrong?”

“No, it’s nothing. I was just thinking this soup is delicious.”

“I agree. As expected of a meal from the academy.”

“There’s a slight bitterness hidden beneath the saltiness. It really enriches the flavour.”

“…bitterness?”

“You don’t taste it? It’s just barely noticeable.”

“I guess it’s not something I pay much attention to.”

“I see.”

I wasn’t able to drink her bath water, but now I’m able to ogle her exposed collarbone and thighs.

If she were to drink some alcohol, how far would she let me go? Would she let me touch her if it was just above the clothes? I feel really happy just by imagining it.

Her thighs peeking out from the hem of her dress are the best. Today’s meal is especially satisfying.

As casually as I could, I glanced down at the seat next to me so I could truly take in the beauty of her thighs. It’s been so long, that I was barely able to hold back from staring at them directly. I continued eating in order to avoid suspicion.

While I was enjoying the view, Sophia-chan suddenly spoke up.

“T-Tanaka-san….”

She appeared to be surprised by something.

“What’s the matter?”

Did she notice me looking at Edita Sensei’s thighs? I felt another pain in my chest as my heart rate increased.

However, she wasn’t looking at me. She was staring across the room at a window in the living room.

I followed her gaze to the window as Edita Sensei did the same.

And there, hardly noticeable between the curtains was the face of a person staring at us.

It reminded me of spirit photography.

“….”

Edita Sensei screamed out in terror when she saw it.

I can understand being surprised to see something like that there.

I was close to screaming myself when I noticed.

“Umm, i-is that E-Ester-sama…?”

The blonde hair that framed the face certainly resembled Ester-chan’s hair.

I’m just guessing here but I assume Ester-chan is clinging to the outside of my window using her flight magic. She’s peeping into my home from the outside. How can the daughter of a great noble act like this?

“Umm, T-Tanaka-san…?”

“Right.”

I nodded and stood up before walking towards the window.

On the opposite side of the window, Ester-chan showed a slight reaction, but she remained pressed up against the glass. Yep, it really is Ester-chan. I could see her chestnut eyes following me as I moved closer.

I reached the window and opened it.

“Ester-san, if you’d like, would you like to join us?”

“…i-is that okay?”

“I’d like you to.”

“R-Really!?”

“Yes.”

“If you insist, I g-guess I have no choice….”

The blonde loli nodded and entered through the window.

I feel sick. This damn loli bitch.
