Episode 7: Hey, she's feeling it right now, isn't she?
Yoo Ara.
My assigned tutoring student.
I looked into information about her.
There wasn't much in the profile I received from Senior Bong-sik.
-Rather poor.
That was the only piece of info that stood out.
The rest was information I had already figured out through my appraisal.
What skills she possessed, her attitude in class, the fact that she was class of 22 at the Korea Hunter Academy and had failed once.
I didn't even need to check her grades since I'd already heard about them from her directly.
From Senior Bong-sik's perspective, this was probably the limit.
He's just the owner of a small tutoring academy, so it couldn't be helped.
The problem was that what I wanted wasn't this kind of superficial information.
With obvious information like this, you can only raise obvious students.
What I wanted was an outstanding student.
If the recommendation rating was S-rank and the adaptability to my skill was also S-rank, I thought there had to be something I didn't know.
So right after finishing the first lesson, I went to an investigation agency that also doubled as an information guild and requested information on Yoo Ara.
"Here it is. But why do you want something like this?"
And here were the results.
"Mind your own business. Since when did an investigation agency ask clients about this kind of thing?"
"Even if you were forced into retirement, to receive this kind of request from a man who was once expected to become the best hunter... Are you stalking or something?"
"What business is it of yours? Even if that were the case, I'm pretty sure it's not your job to pry into the client's affairs."
"Ahem, I understand. I'm asking because I'm worried."
"Worried?"
Worried, my ass.
The investigation agency of Robert Chang, which I'd been using since my hunter days, was famous for not showing any interest in the clients requesting information.
Had the owner changed?
"If you were to become a villain..."
"If I did?"
"Then Kim Si-woo's information would become profitable for us."
So that was it.
That was the kind of thinking I'd expect from Robert Chang's investigation agency.
"If it ever comes to that, I'll sell the info for money myself, so don't worry."
"Hmm."
"If you really want to know the reason, pay the information fee."
"No, it's fine. I'd definitely get beaten by the boss."
The investigation agency lackey didn't have authority beyond this.
But his gaze toward me was filled with suspicion.
He looked like he was trying to get something out of this.
Full of greed to make a name for himself with me.
"Heard Daeseong is taking care of you a bit?"
I didn't answer.
It must be important information, so I understood.
"You sound like you'd talk if I paid."
"You know well."
After sending the agency employee off, I checked the information on Yoo Ara that he had handed over.
I needed information about Yoo Ara that I didn't know.
-Yoo Ara.
-Born in Bucheon, Gyeonggi Province.
-Family lives in a safe house.
-Renting a place. Not wealthy.
-Confirmed to have taken on a significant amount of debt to pay for Yoo Ara's tuition.
Not poor, but not well-off either.
According to the report, it was a family investing all their assets into making her an Academy—graduated Awakened.
Families like this are common.
Ever since Awakened appeared and the profession of hunter came into existence, and guilds formed, and hunters started getting more respect than lawyers.
When rumors spread that Academy—graduate hunters were making enormous amounts of money, many families would invest their entire household assets to send a child with hunter aptitude to the Academy, hoping to change their child's life.
It was a gamble on a single family: if they could just get them to graduate, their lives would turn around, and with luck, they could rise to the upper class.
Yoo Ara was one such case.
Unfortunately, she had become one of those kids who failed without receiving a scholarship.
Most end up this way.
Everyone hopes to become a dragon rising from a stream, but the vast majority end up as nothing more than carp living in that same stream.
There are many who dream while watching the rare dragon that appears.
'The world isn't that easy.'
There was a desperate reason.
In this situation, she must have borrowed money to receive tutoring, too.
I checked the source of the money her parents had borrowed.
If it was connected to Daeseong, I was planning to give up teaching her no matter how good her aptitude was.
Fortunately for her,
-No connection to Daeseong.
-Borrowed from a third-tier financial institution, but not a Daeseong—affiliated company.
No connection to Daeseong.
-No experience of mana rampage.
-Mana Instability Rating: 0
"Nothing to worry about."
The risk was low.
There was practically no connection to Daeseong.
If that was the case, she was certainly suitable to teach.
If I could tame that temperament and nurture her, that is.
There was one thing that bothered me.
Her stubborn personality.
I wondered if it was a problem with her upbringing, so I inquired together.
-Had experience being ignored and bullied by classmates in her first year.
-After that, her personality became rough, and she cut off interactions with people.
So her personality turned bad because of bullying.
If this rough disposition was acquired influence, then it was entirely possible to fix it again.
I had shown her the way to succeed, so she would probably listen to some extent.
I'd have to use this to make her docile.
I headed to Yoo Ara's house while thinking deeply about how to educate her.
"You're here?"
Yoo Ara's expression was bright.
Even without saying it, I could see her weekly evaluation scores were good.
"Looks like your scores were good."
"That's right. How did you know?"
"It shows all over your face."
"Ah, I've been told a lot that I'm an open book."
"I felt that from our first meeting."
She was the type who couldn't hide her feelings.
She had an honest personality.
I didn't intend to blame her for that.
That wasn't a bad thing. Especially if she was my student, I preferred honest kids over ones trying to deceive the teacher.
"I got an A on the weekly evaluation from the professor."
"An A?"
"Yes! All thanks to the pervert, no, the tutor."
"Honest, aren't you. That was a bet worth 15 million won."
At that, Yoo Ara shrugged her shoulders.
"15 million won was tempting, but it's money I can easily earn once I graduate from the Academy safely. I can't lose something big by being greedy over something small."
"Good thinking."
She was a smart kid after all.
Her judgment was quick.
I guess during our first meeting, her anxiety had been making her simple.
'Even though she's desperate for money, she shows no attachment to it.'
If she had stubbornly refused to acknowledge things and insisted on her own way, I'd considered dropping her despite the S-rank adaptability.
If she was a kid who could acknowledge other people's achievements, then she was worth raising.
Now that I saw her, I could see her strengths in many ways.
If I could just fix that fiery personality, she was a sprout with a future.
"The professor said with these scores, I could actually pass the regular exam too. Do you think I can really pass?"
"If you follow what I say, it's possible."
"So you really aren't a pervert."
"Were you still thinking I was a pervert?"
"If someone tells you to take off your clothes on the first meeting, anyone would think that."
After finishing her words, Yoo Ara looked at me and continued.
"So, about that. I'd like to do what we didn't get to last time."
"What we didn't get to?"
"I told you my name, but you, pervert—no, teacher—never told me yours."
"I didn't tell you my name?"
"You didn't. The second lesson too, you just came in, made me take off my clothes, did mana circulation, and left."
"I was being careless."
I had gone too hard trying to make the arrogant student realize her place.
"My name is Kim Si-woo. Call me Si-woo teacher comfortably."
"That's a nice name. Please take care of me, Si-woo teacher."
Yoo Ara held out her hand.
She didn't seem like a kid with a bad personality originally.
But there was no guarantee this kid would keep showing this good side.
She was smiling now only because of her good weekly evaluation scores.
To fix her personality, raising her grades was necessary.
Simple. I like that.
"Enough. Let's focus on learning and getting results. That's the priority. Let's put emotional exchange aside for now. I don't want to see my student get expelled."
"Got it. What's next?"
She was filled with motivation.
As always, I said to Yoo Ara.
"Take off your clothes."
"A-again?"
"Do I need to say it twice?"
"I-I guess not, but... the mana circulation was all finished last time..."
"Class has started. I think we talked about this last time? You said you'd follow my orders if you passed the weekly evaluation. That's why we bet 15 million won, right?"
"Ah, yes, I understand."
"I'm going to check how much you've grown. So obediently take off your clothes first."
"I-It's really just that, right?"
"If you've reached sufficient growth, there's another necessary procedure."
"A procedure? That sounds really unsettling."
"Don't talk back and follow along. The only words you can say right now are 'Yes, I understand' and 'Thank you.'"
"A-Alright. I'll take them off."
Her face bright red, Yoo Ara took off her clothes.
Her breasts were still big.
So big they'd be hard to hold in one hand.
Standing in front of me wearing only her bra and panties.
"Take off everything, including your underwear."
"You didn't make me do that last time."
"What kind of teacher makes a student strip down to their underwear on the first meeting?"
"B-But on the third time it's okay..."
"You're supposed to say 'Yes, I understand.'"
"Ah, yes, I understand."
Yoo Ara took off her last remaining underwear.
As the bra came off, her clean breasts were fully revealed. Her pink nipples stood erect.
Finally, as she took off her panties, her unkempt pubic hair covered her pussy.
"I-I'm embarrassed..."
Instead of answering, I grabbed her breast.
"Kyaaah!"
"Stay still. This is all for the lesson."
[Yoo Ara]
-Potential: S
-Strength: D [Strength Growth (A)]
-Mana: C -> B [Mana Overflow (S)]
-Intelligence: B [Sharpness (A)]
-Endurance: E -> D [Super Recovery (S)]
-Agility: E -> D [Fast Stride (S)]
-Ability: Psychokinesis (B)
-Attribute: ???
-Counter Attribute: ???
-???
Thanks to the skill effects, her mana, agility, and endurance had gone up.
The letters next to the Growth Assist on the side indicated growth adaptability.
The stats with S-rank adaptability had all risen quickly, but the two stats with A-rank adaptability still hadn't changed.
Attribute and counter attribute.
And I needed the information on that completely blank question mark.
Since I had gained enough trust, it was time to open that question mark, which had been hidden because she was wearing underwear.
To confirm, I needed to touch her entire body.
Her bare body without underwear.
I gently stroked Yoo Ara's breasts.
[Contact with target established.]
[Activating Appraisal (SS).]
"Haaht, w-wait..."
She flinched when I touched her breast.
Her body trembled.
Eyes tightly shut, she entrusted herself to my touch.
She couldn't resist.
Because that was the deal.
[Attribute: None]
[Counter Attribute: None]
The attribute information opened.
The attribute was good.
Especially having no counter attribute meant she could go into any dungeon.
This was why her potential was S-rank.
The detailed stats were good.
Now there was only one thing left.
That completely hidden question mark.
[???]
And there was only one place I hadn't touched.
My hand moved downward.
"Hiccup!"
She startled and hiccupped.
Her lower region was wet.
But that was none of my concern.
Right now, I was a tutor.
Feeling sexual desire here was unnecessary.
Because it wasn't an action needed for the lesson process.
As I began to stroke the labia of her pussy.
Jjilgeok jjilgeok.
Along with the lewd sound, a system window appeared.
[Sexual Wall: Masochist — Feels pleasure in masochistic situations.]
Wait.
Why is this kind of information appearing here?
Both her virginity and masochism—why are things that weren't there when I appraised my own information showing up?
I looked at Yoo Ara.
Yoo Ara, who had glanced at me touching her pussy, squeezed her eyes shut again.
Only then did I see it again.
The fact that Yoo Ara's nipples were standing erect.
That her face was red and her breathing was becoming rougher.
A bit of her fluids clung to my finger that had been rubbing her pussy.
You're feeling it right now, aren't you?
