Next Day

"Olen, my dear." –a mysterious and seductive voice called him.

Olen tried to look around, but there wasn't anybody. Just the mist all around.

"This way. Just follow my voice." –the voice said again.

He again heard. Thus he started to follow the sound. A zither tune was being played in the background.

It started to get bright. And what was in front of him… it was the same scene when he fell through the window of Elenora Aniston, his first crush.

Yes, he now understands this unknown feeling of him wanting to be with her and be attracted to her.

And now the same lady was looking at him and even calling him seductively. He couldn't stop himself from walking towards her.

Elenora's body was sunk in a warm bath. As he went closer, gluing his eye at her soaked form, Elenora also started to get up. Unlike last time, when he panicked and looked away, this time he didn't.

He couldn't miss this chance a second time.

But then she just vanished like she was never there.

And then he felt a hand on his shoulder. It wasn't the type that gave him chills but the type that brought forth an unknown feeling from the depth of her heart.

"Hey, Olen. Where have you been all this time? I have been waiting." The voice whispered.

The hand descended from his shoulder to his chest as it traveled downwards. He could almost feel the soft breaths in his ears.

He got so excited. He felt like he was in one of the holy literature he's been reading lately.

He exhaled as Elenora lightly bit into his ear. Her hands roamed all over his body.

For the first time, he felt so excited. He wished he could feel this sensation forever.

But like all cases, if something is too good to be true, then it is not true.

Olen was so unfortunate. Just as he got up from a slump, he fell into another.

He really didn't have any bad intentions when he went to see Elena. It has been a week since he saw her. And when he couldn't even enter her house, being a teenager, he did what a teenager does best. Mess up.

Now, after he woke up in his room, he felt very guilty and ashamed. But then again, a small part of his heart felt another type of excitement.

Now that he was getting more knowledgeable about the adult stuff each day, he couldn't get his priority straight with his feelings. In the end, he couldn't sleep the whole night.

And when he did, he dreamt… yeah, he did.

Teenage is a very troubling time for boys.

So, the next morning, for the first time, he had some morning washing to do... very secretly.

So, it was no surprise that he would want to bury himself when he found out that his esteemed teacher was none other than the girl that came in his dreams.

He didn't even dare to look into the eyes of his teacher. But still, he could feel the evil intent coming from the person standing behind his mother with every pore of his body.

It didn't seem like Elena had complained to his mother.

And it seems his mother has no clue about the incident. Which, is very unusual in itself.

The reason behind it is because Elena changed the story and nobody knew the truth.

Elena planned to deal with it personally.

On the other hand, Bianca felt very accomplished. It is rare for her to see her boy all so shy. If only she knew the 'truth' of his shyness.

No one, absolutely no one, would know what was going through these three's heads at the moment if they didn't know the truth.

After the introduction, of which there wasn't much to say, Bianca took her leave. She seemed delighted. And why wouldn't she be? Her son is going to be taught by a powerful cultivator of foreign land. There must be unknown knowledge which is a lot different from traditional study.

Even if Elena imparts only a bit of overall knowledge, it will boost his worldview.

Though Bianca only lived in this remote area, she was very open-minded and knew the value of knowledge.

This is the reason among the wives of barons, she was the most trusted.

But now it was just Elena and Olen who were left in this huge room called study.

There weren't many books in this section. So the large size is totally unnecessary. At least, that's what Elena thought.

To her, the more space you get while studying, the more you tend to get lost in the surrounding.

It's not like she is against the idea. But more like it is her personal opinion.

And right now, Olen was thinking the same thing. He would be fine with sitting in a corner facing the wall. He just doesn't want to remember the shameful encounter.

It would be alright to not see Elena's face for a few days. Though it would surely be painful for his young heart, it would be far better than this silence.

"So, perverted brat, as you heard, I will be your new teacher. Seeing you lack manner, I don't intend to go easy on you even a bit." -Olen felt an arrow go straight through his heart.

Did his Beloved Elenora just call him a pervert?

"And don't worry about your mom. I didn't tell her what you did. As I want to teach the lesson myself."

"At first, I thought you were a decent guy. But I guess I was wrong. But don't worry. I plan to rectify it. And for that, I will be using this." –Elena brought out a wooden ruler.

As such, Olen's hell class started.

At the end of the day, Olen crawled out of the room with a pathetic expression.

Elena was not a bit merciful. Every mistake was met with the ruler at his bottom.

"Ah." -When he sat on the bed in his room, the only thing he could focus on was his burning bottom.

The feeling he had for Elena was crumbling.

'How could she be so merciless?' He thought.

He didn't even get to see anything the previous day.

But with the harsh teaching, he got today, he was sure that there was no way he would ever have any lewd dreams about Elena after today. She is just too evil.

Days went by this way. Olen's miserable days don't seem to end.

Days start with training and end with some more practice.

While Elena tried her best to get Olen to a better position in his studies, two months passed by in a blink of an eye.

"Miss Elenora. What do you do all day sitting inside your room? You don't even go out to take a walk. Don't you get bored?" –Olen said.

At the moment, Olen is studying at her home as Elena thought it was too troublesome to go to the study every day.

"What are you talking about, big brother? Miss Elenora plays with us all the time." –Chlera said.

In the span of these two months, Elena managed to get the respect of everyone around.

Chlera and Petra have gotten close to Elena. They always come to Elena's house to play.

They are both so adorable. Elena has no way to refuse their demand.

And in the meantime, Elena made sure Olen was always in line. She calmed down during this period of time. But she was still strict with Olen.

But Olen himself wasn't the innocent kid anymore. With a partner like Jon, he had deviated a lot.

Often they would be found strolling around the maid's bathing quarter. And Olen enjoyed the time. This was the only time he could be called free in his busy schedule.

Though it kept his mood from getting slumped, it also made his reputation plummet day by day.

"Why would you want to know what I'm doing? Huh? I know you have become quite the character. But if you dare to try that stunt in front of me, I guarantee, I will make you pay." –Elena said while hitting Olen in the head with her fan.

And it seems his teacher also got wind of this news.

But since he was not her actual disciple with whom she had to part all her knowledge, She found it unnecessary to say anything more. He is just someone Elena was helping out with his studies. She didn't want to get too involved in the matter.

That's Bianca's job.

And also she had seen a lot of boys with the same characteristics. Even if she tried to scold him, it wouldn't help much. It's like these boys carry the perverted genes in their bones or something.

Just look at Olen's Father. He has four wives. And it is not like he has the most wives among the nobles. Apparently, it is quite normal that nobles have multiple wives here.

Well, it is also allowed to have multiple wives in Elena's Place. But it's not as extreme as here. When a noble son marries a woman, it is mostly a political marriage to make more connections.

And most of the women are quite possessive. And they too have quite the power. So if they don't allow a man can't marry a second time. They could have one or two concubines, but that's all.

Here the Baron has four main wives. And they have the same status.

Elena doesn't get just how these women manage to get along.
