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.
