The Broken Possessors of the Infinite Regression Academy - Chapter 275



Chapter 275 – Side Story: Living Well

“Mira. I beg you, but wouldn’t it be better if you just spanked my butt?”

“Hmm… … cool… … .”

“This, this is a bit too much… … Ugh… … .”

“Leona, then look to the side. There is a mass spell. I don’t know if it is a punishment or an appeal.”

“Yeah, I’m fine. I’ll gladly accept any punishment the child gives me… … .”

I went back to the bedroom and started teasing the other four people, including Erestica, who were lounging on the sofa. At first, they all tried to avoid the issue, saying they didn’t know anything about it.

However, when Priscilla was targeted and made to confess, no one could hold out for long. Erestica, who quickly figured out the situation, was next, and Laura was last.

Leona and Latina hesitated for a while, but when Erestica joined them, they joined in. The expression on Laura’s face when she was left alone was also secretly worth seeing.

Kang Yu-na seemed hesitant as she spoke to me, but it turned out that she had made a deal with Nika. She had allowed me to take her for about 30 minutes to celebrate the birthday party.

Instead, they gave out pheromones so that they could enjoy it together later. Even if they had made that suggestion to me, I knew I would have been told no because it was during a banquet.

It’s thanks to these five that people didn’t fall into chaos after I was captured by Nika and disappeared, but if they hadn’t allowed it in the first place, they wouldn’t have taken me, so it’s hard to say it’s thanks to them.

Of course, Nika had some leniency. She originally planned to surprise me by appearing after conquering the Demon World, but since she couldn’t avoid celebrating my birthday, she ended up choosing the next best option.

The alternative was to take him to the middle of the banquet and absorb all of his energy for 30 minutes, and the fact that he strangely knew why he was given the magic sword was a bit odd.

“Are you shooting straight?”

“Yeah, yeah. Don’t worry, Mira. You know how even cellphone cameras are good these days, right?”

“You don’t have to worry. We’re already putting a lot of effort into filming.”

And he was diligently taking pictures of Rosaria and Elisier being punished with his smartphone.

The two were so excited that they took lots of pictures of the scene. Even Elisier seemed excited, which says it all.

I had to give them a punishment, but I was worried about what kind of punishment to give them. I made them stand with their hands up.

There were many things that were bothersome when I tried to hit her. I couldn’t really use violence, but if I just lightly touched her, many people would like it. If I hit her hard, it would be real violence.

This would be a punishment, at least out of shame, but not violence, and it wouldn’t hurt her feelings. It was her own fault for being a laughing stock to Rosaria and Elisier.

‘… … Two of them don’t seem to be effective.’

Even though Priscilla was standing with her hands up, she was nodding off, making strange noises as if she was very tired, and Erestica couldn’t tell whether she was being punished or tempted.

It was because of her clean armpits, which were emphasized by her posture with both arms raised above her head and her sleeveless outfit, and the two overwhelming masses positioned underneath them.

I was already going crazy because I vividly remembered doing that to Nika and her armpit, maybe because of the pheromones, but when I saw that in front of me, my eyes instinctively went to it.

“… … .”

Erestica seemed to know that too, as she turned her head slightly to the side, smiled with her eyes, and slightly bent her elbows, making a pose that was either a punishment or a temptation.

“Okay, Ms. Lee Seo-ah. Look here! Click!”

“Huhm, huhm… … .”

“That’s right. That’s the exact pose. The shy pose.”

“Don’t you know exactly why you’re being punished like that, Laura?”

It seemed to be effective on Laura more than it was on the two of them. It was her own fault that it was Laura who had actually put Nika’s proposal into practice.

After telling me to stay like that for 30 minutes, I went out into the garden to get some fresh air. It was just before noon. I thought I would cool my head a bit before the banquet started again around lunchtime.

The maids who were busily going back and forth in the garden would always greet me even in the midst of their busy schedule. I felt like I was bothering them for no reason, so I went to a quiet place where I didn’t have to pass by while I was working.

“Io?”

“Oh, sir!”

There I encountered an unexpected person. It was Io.

Io, who was carrying a large box while struggling, put it down with a bright smile.

“Why are you here… … Oh, by the way, it’s not my employer anymore, it’s my former employer.”

“It doesn’t matter. Whatever you call it.”

“It’s been a while, Mira oppa.”

The girl who had been the eldest daughter among the ‘younger sisters’ suddenly joined in. She had gained some weight and her complexion had improved a lot. She used to be so skinny that even though she had gained weight, she still felt thin.

“Yeah. It’s been a while for you too. How have you been?”

“Yes. Even if I just eat the food scraps here, I’m doing pretty well compared to before.”

“… … That won’t happen.”

“That’s right. To be honest, it’s not enough to say that we’re doing well. You know how a few people lived together in that small cabin, right? But now, we each have our own rooms, and we get three meals a day without fail, and the quality is amazing, and I don’t have to hear my younger siblings growling, and I don’t have to bring in buckets because of the rainwater leaking in at night, and I don’t have to shiver because the winter wind comes in through the cracks in the broken boards—”

“Hey, hey, you too! Do it that way!”

Io quickly covered her mouth. When her younger brother became quiet, she bowed while looking at me.

“I’m sorry, Mira. She sometimes gets excited and acts like this. She’s just having too much fun here. I need to work on her a bit more… … .”

“It’s okay. It’s nice to see that you’re doing well.”

The younger brother grumbled, “It’s not that there’s too little work, it’s that I’m competent.” Io didn’t even listen.

“Is the work worth doing?”

“Yes. Even though it’s called the upper rank escort, it’s not that difficult. Rather, it’s to the point where I wonder if it’s okay to work this easily and receive this much, so that’s a bit concerning.”

“It’s okay because it’s cheap compared to its skills. So… …what about your younger sibling?”

“You’re progressing very quickly. Diana has praised me several times for learning well. I also enjoy looking at numbers and working on paperwork, so I think it’s my calling. Diana told me that when I grow up, she’ll give me a bonus so I can work under her.”

Now that I think about it, my speech seems to be starting to resemble Diana’s. If I change the formal speech to informal speech, it’s roughly 0.7 Diana Crate.

“Okay. Study hard and—wait, Sister Diana?”

Something about the title seems strange.

“At first, I called her Diana, but then she asked me how old I was and since our ages didn’t seem that different, I asked her to call me Unnie. I’ve been calling her Unnie ever since.”

‘It doesn’t make much difference?’

If we calculate it by Earthly standards, we would be the same age. Do you have no conscience?

“Well… … Anyway, I’m glad you seem to be doing well.”

“It’s all thanks to Mira-sama. Oh, right! It’s not enough, but… … Here, happy birthday. Martini and I saved up our salaries and custom-made this.”

“I’m 55 and my sister is 45.”

The younger brother prickled his nose. He smiled and opened the packaging.

“Is that a glove?”

What came out inside were black leather gloves.

“Yes. It feels like you’re swinging a sword with your bare hands… … It feels weird to have calluses on it for no reason. I asked my employer about the size, so it’ll probably fit perfectly. Oh, if you got a better one, you don’t have to use it… … Okay.”

Well, I did get a pair of gloves with all sorts of enchantments on them as a birthday present. They were from Noktopju, so I just said thank you and put them in storage like the other gifts.

I put on the gloves Io had given me and tried squeezing and unclenching my fingers. They fit my hands perfectly.

“That’s perfect. I’ll use it well. Thank you.”

“Really? Thank you.”

The two people smiled brightly.

He took off his gloves and put them in his pocket. They both seemed to be slowly preparing to leave. Only then did he look at the box he had placed next to him. It was a fairly large box, enough to cover Io’s entire upper body.

“What is that? It looks pretty heavy.”

“Oh, this? Th, that… … So… … .”

Although it was just a casual question, seeing Io visibly flustered made me suspicious. If it was an ordinary object, there was no way he would be flustered and unable to answer.

And, there will be no need to exchange glances with Martini like that.

“It’s just an errand. An errand for my employer.”

“You’re saying this is an errand for your older sister? Why don’t you ask the kids to do it for you and instead do it yourself?”

“I’m a top escort. I can run errands or something… … .”

Io, whose words were trailing off, avoided eye contact. He just looked blatantly suspicious.

As I approached the box, two people stopped me. Io looked visibly embarrassed, and Martini bit her lip with a look of disappointment on her face.

“I’ll just look at it and put it back the way it was.”

“No. Do you want to see us get cut?”

“Don’t worry, if you get fired, I’ll rehire you at double your salary.”

“Huh? Really? Huh.”

“What are you overlooking, Sister! Don’t you know that trust is the most important thing for people like us?!”

Martini, who spoke just like Diana, struggled to push me away. Of course, it was a meaningless struggle.

I could have pretended not to win and pushed on, but I was more curious than that. It was something that Diana herself had asked an escort of as many as Io to deliver, and it had to be delivered by going around to such a secluded place.

I lightly subdued the two men and approached the box. Martini shouted next to me, “If I open it, will I cry?! Will I really cry?!?” But I ignored her and opened the box so that it would be as easy to restore to its original state as possible.

“… … .”

Then he checked the bundle of erotic novels that filled a box the size of a person’s upper body and closed it quietly.

“… … .”

“… … .”

Io and Martini were staring at the box with blank eyes, as if they had no idea it was that kind of thing.

“What did your older sister say when you gave this to her?”

“It’s a very important item, so don’t let anyone open it until it arrives… … .”

“Who is this for?”

“To a person named Kang Yu-na.”

Oh my god.

“How about this world’s rice cake novel? Is it fun?”

“Huh, huh?! I don’t know what you’re talking about?! Huh, really. Do you think I’d be the kind of person who would receive something like that from Diana?!”

“I didn’t even say a word to Diana about receiving it?”

“ah.”
