Practical Teaching: A Guide to the Training of a Humanoid Succubus

Dongfang Yi took out a certain amount of coffee powder, put it into the handle, flattened and compacted it, and began to prepare to make coffee.

The little angel Kikyo Kushida just looked at him without saying anything else. No one knew what she was thinking.

"Mr. Kushida really wants friends?" Dongfang Yi brought up the topic.

"Yes, I want to be friends with everyone."

Kushida Kikyo responded softly, but did not continue to look at Dongfang Yi.

I don’t know what she said to Li Zhong and others that allowed her to talk to Dongfang Yi so leisurely here.

"Then may I ask, what kind of friend do you want, Kushida-san?"

Dongfang Yi put the compacted coffee powder into the coffee machine and started extracting coffee concentrate.

"What kind of...friend?" After venting his anger, Kushida began to think about Dongfang Yi's question, muttering unconsciously.

"Yes, what kind of friend. Has Kushida ever played that kind of card-drawing mobile game?" Dongfang Yi coaxed.

“No, but some of my friends are very keen on this.”

When Kikyo Kushida thought of Yamauchi and the professor in her class, a hint of disgust unconsciously flashed across her eyes.

"Then, Kushida-san, do you know that the manufacturers of these games will draw different images of the cards you draw and categorize them according to their rarity?" Dongfang Yi explained with a smile, "In my opinion, the same applies to friends."

"Same?"

"Yes, friend is a very broad concept, isn't it?" Dongfang Yi took out iced milk from the refrigerator and poured a certain amount into a container. "In my mind, I divide friends into five levels, just like the R, SR, SSR, UR, and MR levels used by card manufacturers."

"Friends shouldn't be like this, senpai."

"Really? Perhaps I'm too selfish, so I can't be as broad-minded as Kushida-san." Dongfang Yi laughed self-deprecatingly, his eyes cold and indifferent: "To me, friends are divided into different levels. Not just any cat or dog is worthy of being called my friend."

"..."

Kushida's smile froze, and the anger in his heart was aroused once again.

Are you teasing me that I am not worthy of being your friend?

"Well, in my heart, Kushida-san is already my friend." Dongfang Yi continued his emotional roller coaster ride. "It's just that I'm not sure which category to put Kushida-san into, so it's a bit... a headache."

"Oh, is that so?" Kushida smiled again, thinking to himself, "Don't let me get your secrets. If I do, then... then...

Forget it, let’s talk about it later.

"Do you want to listen?" Dongfang Yi asked without turning his head.

"what?"

“My classification of friends.”

"Okay, okay. I'll listen carefully to whatever you want to say, senior." Kushida Kikyo pricked up her ears.

"Kushida-san is really tolerant of others." Dongfang Yi winked at her playfully. "To me, the lowest level of friendship is an acquaintance, which is similar to the R card in the game."

"An acquaintance?"

"Yes, it's the kind of relationship where you'll nod when you pass in the corridor, know each other's names, and occasionally chat a few words, but you don't care about each other's feelings. If there is one more or one less friend like this in your life, you don't mind or care."

"Well, there are indeed such people."

"Perhaps one day, these friends will develop a deeper understanding due to some chance, and then develop into often doing things together, doing things that one person couldn't do alone." Dongfang Yi poured the brewed coffee into the cup. "Then, perhaps one day, they will go their separate ways due to time or career, and return to being alone."

"It's a situation I really don't want to encounter. For me, it would be great if everyone could just stay together and get along."

Kushida Kikyo took the opportunity to start speaking to solidify her character.

"Really? That's an ideal scenario indeed." Dongfang Yi seemed to be fooled by her and really believed that she was an innocent and kind person. "However, some friends will miss each other after breaking up and want to meet and talk whenever they have the chance to express their longing. But some people will forget each other after a short period of time after breaking up, and from then on, they will go their separate ways and never see each other again."

"For the former, according to common terms, they are close friends, while for the latter, they are just ordinary friends." Dongfang Yi paused and emphasized: "Most of my friends are the latter."

"But I want to be the former with my senior~" Kushida Kikyo continued to act cute.

"Really?" Dongfang Yi smiled casually without commenting.

But he no longer spoke.

......

Seeing that he stopped talking, Kushida Kikyo felt like she was being tickled by a kitten.

I wish one day I could hold a sword in my hand and kill all the Broken Chapters in the world... cough... Riddler.

"What about the other two kinds of friends?"

She blinked and asked softly.

"It's basically impossible to encounter those two types, so there's no point in telling you." Dongfang Yi waved his hand and continued to keep the suspense.

"But I really want to listen to it." Kushida Kikyo spoke in a coquettish voice, her watery eyes were charming, and her chubby little face was pink and tender, looking very cute.

Dongfang Yi shrugged helplessly: "The fourth type is called a confidant."

"confidant?"

"Who can share the gentle breeze and bright moon with me? I seek a soulmate among the lofty mountains and flowing water. This is what we call a confidant." Dongfang Yi's eyes lit up with longing as he began to play latte art. "That kind of communication between friends requires no explanation. Perhaps all it takes is a glance, a single expression, to understand each other's hearts."

"Is there really such a person?" Kushida was a little scared.

"Who knows? Those kinds of friends are hard to come by, the ones who accept each other for who they are. But Kushida-san is such a hard-working and kind person, maybe I'll meet one someday."

"What if it's a bad guy?"

Kushida asked unconsciously.

"If it's bad people... I'll only meet bad people. Evil people are supposed to be selfish, so it's hard for them to form friendships." Dongfang Yi frowned and thought carefully, his hands moving non-stop. "Perhaps there's a small chance that two like-minded perverts will meet?"

Kushida thought it would be great if he didn't encounter any bad guys.

"As for the fifth kind, it's called sharing life and death. I hate that I can't live with you, but I hope to die with you." Dongfang Yi smiled and said, "This peaceful place will never appear, so forget it."

"Is that so? Then, what kind of friend do you think I am?"

Kikyo Kushida unknowingly accepted Dongfang Yi's classification.

"This is indeed a difficult question. I still haven't thought it through." Dongfang Yi smiled apologetically and walked over to Kushida with the mug in his hand: "Then let Kushida-san decide."

"I?"

"I will treat Kushida-san as my friend, just as Kushida-san treats me as his friend."

"Senior, there is no difference between my friends."

"Really? Then I'll wait for the day when Kushida-san tells me according to my classification." Dongfang Yi pushed the prepared latte in front of Kushida Kikyo: "By the way, this is a reward."

"Eh? Eh?!" Kushida Kikyo exclaimed in a low voice.

In the brown coffee in the mug, a Q-version Kushida pattern with a sweet smile was made with milk foam. It was winking playfully and making a "yeah" sign with its hand.

The two-dimensional style fully interprets the word cute, but anyone can recognize at a glance that the pattern on the coffee is the little angel Kikyo Kushida.

At this moment, the girl suddenly felt that having been looking for the person in front of her for two days didn't seem like too much trouble.

"Wow, that's amazing!" She was a little bit unbelievable.

"How was the reward for finding the answer, Kushida-san? Are you satisfied?" Dongfang Yi said calmly, "I think it's pretty good. But the pattern won't last long."

Kushida quickly took out his phone and started trying to take pictures. He seemed satisfied with every photo, but at the same time, he seemed dissatisfied with every one of them.

Dongfang Yi just sat there quietly watching her movements and waiting for her to finish filming, feeling safe and relaxed.

After all, no one comes to the store now.

After finishing the filming, Kushida was a little shy. Her resentment had dissipated unknowingly, and she even felt guilty for venting just now.

She turned her head away, somewhat afraid to look Dongfang Yi in the eye.

"By the way, come closer." Dongfang Yi waved gently in front of her.

Kushida came over obediently.

Dongfang Yi leaned over and whispered in her ear, "Let me give you one last secret, little Platycodon. Remember not to tell anyone else."

He called me Little Platycodon! And there's a secret!

Kushida felt as if his heartstrings were plucked by something, and his heartbeat stopped for a moment.

"Actually, the store manager said that as the head barista, I have the privilege of picking one lucky customer during work hours to give them a small new pastry or coffee."

"Eh? Really?" Kushida opened his eyes wide.

"Of course, I never lie. By the way, I'm here until 6 p.m. Monday to Friday."

"Is that so?" Kushida suddenly felt that it was great to be able to meet his senior!

"However, the benefits are only available this month."
