Chapter 35 – Wonder

Half an hour later, I had proven to her that my level in math was way above hers. I also got a better understanding of the inner world's school system and curriculum. I was better at math than her but it wasn't to say the people here received a worse education than I did. From what I could see, it was pretty much the same. It was just that mathematics was one of my main areas of focus during my training. My teachers insisted it was the basis of everything and that mastering math meant mastering logical thinking and problem-solving. I was forced to learn a lot of abstract concepts I was certain I would never use in my life.

Ulum was the most startled by the outcome.

"To think a nonsensical girl like you could be that good at math. The world is full of surprises."

"It's okay to praise me more."

"…It's tiring talking to you."

"Is math one of the subjects you'll be tested on in two weeks?"

"It is."

"You teach me the language and I teach you math. Deal?"

"Your way of talking is… Sigh. Whatever. Deal."

"I can see in your eyes your appreciation of me shooting through the roof. Don't fall in love too fast or it'll be boring, okay?"

"I want to slap you so bad…"

"But you hate touching people. Life's tough, I know."

Her glare could have pierced through my eye sockets at this moment. Not that I cared in the least. Her anger was cute compared to the wrath of the high-level executives in the Trading Union I sometimes encountered in the past.

Thus, a beautiful symbiotic relationship was born between us. Every hour, we switched between the roles of student and teacher. There was a lot of bickering and teasing happening but we made a lot of progress overall. I also noticed something interesting. Even though her math skills were below mine, they were still higher than what was expected for her exam. If her goal was just to pass the test, she didn't truly need my help for that.

Nevertheless, she was quite docile when being taught, contrary to me. She listened well to my bits of advice and learned quickly. She was both diligent and smart, a great combination to go far in life. It was a shame she was sometimes a bit pricky and bipolar. Or maybe that made her more interesting.

Time passed quickly and, after a day full of study, we were ready to stop for now. We stretched in our seats, our muscles rigid after sitting for so long.

"Good job, Ulum, my friend."

This was said in the local language and she smiled.

"Your learning speed is a wonder. Won't you be able to talk normally soon at this rate?"

"It's all because I have the best teacher. Maybe I'll be the one to fall in love first?"

"If only your personality wasn't like that… Well, no one's perfect, just like you said."

"I'm happy we got close enough to quote each other's words. How many daughters should we aim for?"

"Sigh…"

She looked at me with disgust before giving me a weird grin.

"Three."

For the first time since I met her, she managed to take me by surprise.

"Haha! Well said! Three's good. But you need to cure your touching problem first. Or what, don't tell me you won't touch our daughters too?"

"…Enough. I'll go back home now. You should go easy with your rambling or you'll get into trouble one of these days."

"You can just bail me out at that time."

"Whatever."

She opened the door and left just like that. Soon after, I did the same. Since it wasn't too late yet, I chose to plan my evening a little differently from the previous day. I first teleported right outside of the dome and practiced my spatial magic there for a few hours. Then, when it got late enough, I teleported back inside and headed toward Suuru's home.

"Welcome back, Tila."

"I'm home. How was your day?"

"Just like usual. What about you?"

"I'm making good progress on my learning."

"That's great to hear."

We chatted some more until she started squirming a little while playing with her hands.

"What's wrong?"

"Well… Nothing big. It's just that… um…"

"Yes?"

"Can you give me another massage?"

"Oh, sure. I'll massage you after dinner."

"No, I mean… Can you maybe, massage me now?"

"Right now?"

"…Yes."

She gave a shy smile while I rejoiced internally. It seemed her development was progressing even better than expected. I didn't think she would ask for it straightforwardly so soon. I gave her my most brilliant grin.

"Gladly."

This evening, the beautiful moans and shouts of my savior resonated in the house earlier than usual.

In this manner, I established a sort of routine for some time. During the day, I studied with Ulum in the library. After that, I would train my spatial magic. And then, I would spend the evening with Suuru. The massages became a ritual of sorts, and, after that day, she always asked for one as soon as I came back home. Three days later, she started to ask for a morning massage on top of the usual one.

Her body became more and more sensitive and she enjoyed the pleasure more easily. In conclusion, it was obvious she became a bit addicted to it, just like a teenager discovering masturbation for the first time. The only difference was that she only associated that pleasure with an active action of mine. As far as I could tell, she didn't even think of pleasuring herself, hence why she asked me to massage her more often. Any remnant of the hesitation she had at the start was gone and she fully let herself go into my hands, anticipating the bliss she would receive.

A week passed by, and, after another learning session with Ulum, we both agreed that I could speak the language on a decent enough level. Finally, it was time for me to move on to the next step of my plans.
