"Oh! aren't you Yuria Riko! That famous cosplayer. Is this real?" Marin looked surprised and had quite an expressive manner, with her mouth open and her body trembling a bit.

"Ah, yeah. You can call me Yuria. I'm sorry that I can't tell you my real name. It will be complicated after all." Satomi responds by keeping her index finger in her mouth, signaling Marin that her real name was a secret while apologizing.

"Is fine! By the way, I'm Kitagawa Marin. I really like your cosplay. I'm such a fan. This is awesome!! You're also such a beautiful girl. Your skin is also impressive and super pretty. Ah, I'm thrilled to meet you in person. Can I become as pretty as you~" Marin said as she grabbed Satomi's hand and looked at her sparklingly.

Satomi was a teacher by nature, and she also taught at the same school as Marin. So it's not strange that she acted like a teacher to Marin.

"Of course you can. You are a beautiful and cute girl. You also have pretty and well-maintained blonde hair. Hm… I heard you work as a model. In other words, you have a good foundation. I also came here to help you cosplay for the first time." Satomi replied to Marin's words with a deeper-sounding voice. Marin's eyes became more sparkling when she heard Satomi's reply that praised her.

"Un! I will try my best to learn from you."

"Hm, that's a good answer. I wonder what the character you want to cosplay is."

"Ah, yes. I already have the custom, and I will cosplay as Shizuku Kuroe from Saint ♡ Slippery's Academy for Girls - The Young Ladies of the Humiliation Club: Debauched Miracle Life 2." Marin answered Satomi's question easily even though she named such a weird and long title.

"... Yes?" Satomi was quite flabbergasted with Marin's answer. That made her question her again. "Please, one more time? I may have heard wrong."

"I want to cosplay as Shizuku Kuroe from Saint ♡ Slippery's Academy for Girls - The Young Ladies of the Humiliation Club: Debauched Miracle Life 2." Marin once again said those complicated titles with such ease and pretty fast, too.

Satomi's eyes turned towards Kouta, and Kouta could see the desperation in Satomi's eyes. Kouta could even guess what Satomi was thinking. Well, at this moment, Satomi probably had conflicting feelings because she was currently going to teach her school students to cosplay from a game for 18 years and above only. That hurt her resolve as a teacher. At the same time, she didn’t have much choice.

"Isn't that R plus-18…" Satomi commented, and when she said that word, Marin's face looked away.

"Well, that's fine, right? Look, the costume is amazing."

And she tried to divert their conversation as she went to her luggage. She slowly, carefully, and meticulously took out her custom clothes and showed them to Satomi.

"Isn't this amazing?" Marin showed a sweet and enthusiastic smile. Satomi, who saw that smile, could only sigh because, in the end, what was done outside of school was not a big deal to her, especially since Marin's cosplay outfit was not so indecent.

"Hm, it's really well-made. Especially for a first timer." Satomi praised the cosplay made by Gojou as she inspected the costume.

"Yeah, this is really good."

"Okay. Let’s start. First, we need to prepare you." Satomi said as she told Marin to put down the costume and signaled her to sit down near her.

"Okay, we will tie your hair first since you will use a wig for this, right? Let's see… The character is rather a gothic style. Huh… Wait, the boy over there should come quickly and help us, too." Satomi called Kouta, who had been watching the two of them talk to each other.

"Okay…"

"I know you aren't fond of doing this, but at least learn something to help her again in the future."

Satomi explained how to do make-up and also put on make-up for Marin. Finally, they both entered the guest room to finish changing Marin into her cosplay outfit. It didn't take long for Kouta to hear happy and excited voices from inside the guest room used by Marin and Satomi.

It wasn't long before the two of them came out of the guest room, and Kouta could see Marin, who had changed from a blonde girl to a completely different girl. In front of Kouta was a girl with short purple hair and eyes using purple eye contact to give the impression of being Shizuku Kuroe.

Honestly, because of memories from the past, Kouta has a slight distaste for cosplay because although there were many good cosplays in his past lifetime. Still, many were not so good due to the fact that they were trying to imitate 2D characters. Of course, there was a vast difference between real people in that world and 2D. However, cosplay in this world was very different. Especially for Kouta when he saw Marin, who looked completely different from usual and so much like the character she was cosplaying. It was amazing, and to be honest, she was different from Satomi, which is usually indecent; a far cry from the one used by Marin.

"That's quite amazing. I'm only playing it because you recommended it to me, and you really do look like Shizuku." Kouta praised her.

"Really? Do I really look like Shizuku-tan?" Marin responded while her cheek blushed slightly as she asked him. Kouta could see in her eyes full of excitement and happiness as she finally could cosplay her favorite character.

"Well, of course. You do."

"Right… Right, right, right!!! Ini benar-benar luar biasa. This is really amazing. Gojou's costume is really amazing. I really look like Shizuku-tan!!!"

"Yeah, It's a pity Gojou can't see this in person."

"Anyway, this is amazing. Gojou would’ve also liked to thank you because, thanks to your input,  this costume was very well done."

Kouta remembered that the feedback he gave almost all came from Satomi and the various shortcomings mentioned in the manga, such as the fabric trying to keep the cosplayer easy to move while still being of good quality. Especially since it won't overheat the user when cosplaying in the field.

"Well, it's not all come from me. Most of them came from Yuria-san. So if you want to thank someone you need to thank her." Kouta replied to Marin's words.

"Ah, that's true. I'm really grateful for your help, Yuria-san. You helped me with make-up, too." Marin moved towards Satomi and bowed her head a little to give her respect.

"Hahaha, you don't need to exaggerate. I've only given a little feedback. Honestly, I was amazed when I saw how well-made your costumes were. I never would have thought you guys would make such good costumes for the first time. I give you high marks!" Satomi exclaimed toward Marin and Kouta while giving her thumb up.

"Thank you. I think we need to show my cosplay to Gojou. He will be happy."

"Ah, yes. How about we start our photo session then…"

With that sentence, the three of them started a long photo session.
