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

This is unfair to everyone in the room.

"Don't be nervous, just calm down."

Similar words to Dongfang Yi's were heard beside the girl. The voice was heavy and steady, and just hearing it made people feel at ease.

"Huh? Um, sorry."

Ichinose realized belatedly that her inner turmoil was a little too obvious. She looked to her side and felt that the whole room was brightened by the shiny forehead.

The reflection is so strong!

Is she the instructor? But why is she wearing a school uniform?

"Thank you for the reminder." Ichinose smiled apologetically after his train of thought was interrupted. "I'm sorry to have worried you."

"Don't worry, I was just as nervous as you during my first interview."

The bald man's expression was serious, revealing no trace of relaxation. Perhaps this was just his daily routine. "But after experiencing this many times, I got used to it. I'm Katsuragi Kohei, a first-year student in Class A."

"Not the instructor," he emphasized at the end.

"Eh? I'm so sorry!" Ichinose apologized solemnly after realizing his misunderstanding. He then introduced himself, "I'm Ichinose Honami, a first-year student in Class B."

"It's okay. I've experienced this kind of misunderstanding too many times, so I'm used to it." Katsuragi remained calm and it seemed that he really didn't take Ichinose's misunderstanding to heart.

"Katsuragi-san, are you here to become a student council member as well?"

"Of course." Katsuragi looked at Ichinose in surprise.

Aren't all the students in this room waiting for interviews in order to be selected for the Student Union?

"Sorry." Ichinose realized belatedly that he had spoken out of turn.

"It's okay." Katsuragi nodded, not caring.

He paused and continued, "Don't worry, even if the interview doesn't work out, there are always other things we can do."

Ichinose forced a smile at him. She knew her friendly classmate had misunderstood, so she changed the subject: "As for Class A, is Katsuragi-san familiar with Higashikata-san?"

"A wise man? Ichinose-san wants to confess to him too?"

Katsuragi looked at her with some surprise.

"Although I have a good relationship with him, it's not that close yet." Ichinose was a little confused. "And why did Katsuragi-san say 'also'?"

"I'm sorry, but I subconsciously assumed that because so many people in the class have been asked to hand in love letters." Katsuragi explained, but he clearly didn't believe Ichinose's words. "If you're going to hand in a love letter, it's better to hand it to him in person."

"Why do you say that?"

"He sat in the second-to-last seat in our class, by the window. There was a piece of white paper taped to his desk." Katsuragi thought carefully and reframed his words: "He said he would only accept love letters delivered in person. Any letters that had been passed around would not be accepted."

As classmates, Katsuragi still used a relatively mild statement.

"...Hangfang-san, you're such a decisive person, aren't you?" Ichinose couldn't hide her surprise, but suddenly she became curious about Dongfang Yi's gossip: "Are there any girls who have successfully submitted their applications?"

"No." Katsuragi shook his head.

"No?"

"Yes, not a single one." Katsuragi Kohei carefully considered the explanations of the girls who asked him to hand in the love letters on their behalf. "That's the problem. Someone told me that after Dongfangjun tore up all the love letters in front of him on the first day... um... the girls in the class also wanted to try handing them in in person after school, but..."

"but?"

Ichinose's attention was drawn to the deeds of Dongfang Yi.

"But it's said that none of them have been able to successfully find Dongfang-kun after school, even if they set out immediately to track him down." Katsuragi frowned in thought, "So so far, no one has been able to successfully express their feelings to him in person."

"...But I think Dongfang-san is easy to meet. Besides, doesn't he usually hang out at the cafe?"

Ichinose was a little confused. Dongfang Yi was not a otaku who liked to stay in the room. She had met students from different classes several times in just one week, but she had never met her classmates... How was it possible?

“I don’t know about this, but I think it’s a good thing.”

"why?"

"Because they still hold out hope, I think even if they submit it in person, they'll probably be ruthlessly rejected." Katsuragi thought seriously. "And Higashikata-san handled each one very cleanly, probably to discourage them from thinking that way."

"Why do you think so, Katsuragi-san?"

"This is my personal opinion, but from my perspective, I think Dongfang-kun is an excellent and very proud person." Katsuragi thought about Dongfang Yi's classroom performance and daily behavior. "He seems to only care about things that interest him and doesn't care about other people's proactive contact."

"Is that so? But I thought he was very kind..."

Ichinose was very confused.

"Then Ichinose-san must be a special person to him." Katsuragi nodded and came to the conclusion.

"Uh-huh?"

Ichinose blushed uncontrollably when she realized what was happening. She looked away uncomfortably, "Katsuragi-san must have misunderstood."

"I think I still have some judgment on people."

Katsuragi insisted on his opinion.

"Is that so?"

Ichinose fumbled to explain, "Maybe Touhou-san is a little different in private. Touhou-san, who works at the cafe, is actually very gentle."

"That makes sense." Katsuragi nodded, agreeing with the explanation. "I've certainly never seen him in private."

Katsuragi, who is used to being frugal, has never been to a coffee shop to spend money, so he has never seen Dongfang Yi in private.

But can you actually work part-time at a cafe? Do you pay cash or points?

Katsuragi secretly kept this information in mind and was about to ask Ichinose for details.

But the door to the reception room was suddenly opened and a second-year student walked in.

"Katsuragi Kohei, it's your turn, follow me."

"Okay." Katsuragi stood up, straightened his collar, and nodded goodbye to the energetic girl he had just met. "Then I'll go first."

"Katsuragi-san, I wish you good luck with your interview."

Ichinose also sent blessings to the kind people she just met.

"Thank you, and I wish you good luck with your interview."

......

Soon after, on the other side,

Dongfang Yi has processed all the ingredients. Those that need to be marinated have been put in the refrigerator, those that need to be blanched have had their blood foam removed, and the ribs have been put into the rice cooker for stewing.

He has nothing to do for the time being.

And Sakura was still resting. The girl's breathing was light and regular, her brows were relaxed and natural, and she looked like she was sleeping well.

So I can't chat with him.

So Dongfang Yi sat at the table, put his mobile phone aside, opened the book he had just borrowed, "Massage Techniques and Acupoints Guide", compared it with his own body, and studied it word by word.

buzz~

His phone vibrated slightly.

【Katsuragi Kohei, I hope to add you as a friend】

Hmm? What happened?
