Mary's Pain and Arena

The next day...

When Alex was awake, he could feel something warm in his hand and right in front of him.

Opening his eyes, he finally realized his hands were firmly holding onto Mary's chest, with her back against his chest.

Sophia was hugging him from behind, wrapping her leg around his body like a body pillow.

He quickly moved his hands away from Mary before pushing Sophia's hands and leg away from his body. However, as he freed himself from the trap, he felt something dripping wet.

For a second, he thought he had a wet dream before he quickly realized he was way too exhausted from last night.

He started to think Mary had somehow peed on the bed, but after seeing the red mark on the blanket, he immediately realized what it was.

"Mary, wake up. I think you're having your first period."

"Hm? What did you say——Ow! Why does it hurt so much?"

Tears began falling from Mary's face as she started groaning in pain. It was almost as if she had some sort of delayed response.

Alex immediately got out of bed and ran over to Mary's drawer, pulling out a new pair of panties and a new pad.

The noise made by the two of them finally made Sophia wake up from her sleep as she slowly opened her eyes.

"Hm? Why are you two up so early——Oh my god, Mary!"

"Sophia, go call mom."

As Sophia ran out of the bedroom, Alex gently pushed the blanket aside before moving a little closer.

"Mary, just relax. The pain will disappear on its own. The more you think, the more it hurts——"

"I can't! It just hurts so much——"

As Alex tried to pull Mary's pants down, her legs were holding way too tight to remove the soaking red pants.

Fortunately, Sophia finally came back with Katherine, running straight to the bed.

"Mom, Mary's period came."

Seeing the blood-red pants and Mary groaning in pain, Katherine quickly moved closer to Mary.

"Mary, don't worry. Mommy is here. Calm down a little, okay?"

Katherine's voice seemed to have some sort of magic as Mary finally stopped panicking. She quickly pulled Mary's pants all the way down, revealing the blood stain that had soaked the panties completely red.

A stream of water appeared on her hand as she pulled Mary's panties aside, slowly directing the water to absorb clean all of the blood.

After all the stains were gone, Katherine attached the pad to the new pair of panties before helping Mary put it back on.

"Congrats, Mary. You are now a woman," Katherine gently whispered as she carried her out of the bed.

"I don't want to be a woman anymore. I don't like this at all." Mary complained, feeling the pain persisting.

"Shush, don't say that... You two, talk with Mary for a bit, okay? I need to go clean up the bed."

As Katherine gently put Mary onto the sofa, Sophia and Alex sat down next to her.

"Mary, the pain is going to disappear away after a few minutes." Sophia comforted.

"Really?"

"Yes, really. It's just your body hasn't gotten used to it yet. Trust me, I already have experience with this."

Mary's face looked much better after hearing Sophia's reassurance, but she could still feel the pain after sitting there for a few minutes.

"Ha, look like someone was a crybaby when they got their first period,"

Alex smirked as he suddenly remembered how Mary had been laughing at him a few weeks before on the trip to the capital.

"Hmph! I'm not a crybaby. It doesn't even hurt that much." Mary replied as she crossed her arms.

"Oh really? How about this: If you can read this book and tell me what's inside, then I won't call you a crybaby."

"Bet!"

Mary quickly snatched the book out of Alex's hand, putting all her focus on reading it as the two sat in silence.

By the time Katherine returned to the living room, most of the pain had subsided except a little cramp. However, Mary's period ruined the weekend plan to go outside.

Alex was the only one who was more than happy to have more time to read the textbook and finish the second chapter.

When the weekend ended, Mary was back to normal, albeit still needing to wear her pad for the occasional bleeding for a few more days.

"Wake up! Time for school!"

Katherine yelled as she flipped the blanket over to forcefully wake all three of them up from the bed.

To her surprise, both of the girls were hugging Alex's arm, with his morning wood pointing clearly visible, making a tent in his pants.

"Maybe it's time for me to give each of them a private room."

Katherine murmured as she realized it was starting to seem inappropriate that they were still sleeping together. But with no space in the house, she scraped the idea as the three slowly opened their eyes.

"Already? Can I sleep just for another minute?" Mary pleaded as she tried to drag the blanket back.

"Too bad. Now get up and go wash your face."

As the three of them got up from the bed and slowly headed toward the bathroom, Katherine suddenly lay down on the bed.

"Their warmth and smell... It's so nice!" Katherine thought to herself as she spread her arms and legs around like a child.

After lying for a bit, she reluctantly got up from the bed before heading over to the kitchen.

The breakfast was already in place: a plate of eggs and ham next to a cup of fresh milk that she had made this morning.

As the three kids exited the bathroom and sat down in their seats, she watched them eat the breakfast she had made.

The three of them started chatting with each other, with Katherine occasionally chiming in.

"Mom, why don't you make a cup of milk for yourself?" Alex suddenly asked.

"Only kids drink milk. I don't need to drink it."

"Okay..."

After the short conversation, the three headed back to their room to change before coming out with their backpack.

"Bye, mom!"

"Bye!"

As Katherine watched the three leave the house together, she headed back inside after they disappeared from her sight.

"I have the house all to myself..." Katherine murmured as she took out a mop and bucket and started wiping the floor.

After cleaning the entire house, she checked the time, and it was just about to be lunch.

"It's Monday... I need to do laundry."

Katherine headed over to the bathroom before carrying the laundry basket full of clothes to the storage room.

There, she started taking out their dirty laundry one by one into a rectangular machine before stopping at one of the clothes.

It was Alex's underwear, with an old cum stain that remained at the front.

"Why do I want to smell this? When did I become such a pervert? I need to control myself."

Despite saying no in her mind, her hand was slowly moving the underwear closer and closer to her face. But just before underwear could touch her face, she immediately threw it into the machine.

"Why am I like this? When did I become so desperate?" Katherine thought to herself in disgust.

After throwing all the laundry into the machine, she quickly turned it on before she could regret her choice. With the machine running, she headed back into the living room before sitting down on the sofa.

"Stop being such a thirsty woman... Maybe I need to do something else to distract myself a little."

Katherine closed her eyes and entered into a meditation state as she started trying to increase her mana level.

Unfortunately, she made little progress by the time she exited her meditation.

"Is it already afternoon?" Katherine murmured as she noticed the sun beginning to set on the horizon.

Meanwhile, back in school.

As the three kids stepped inside the classroom, a new teacher was already sitting in her seat.

It was a middle-aged woman, wearing almost the same uniform as Amelia except with a long skirt all the way down to her ankle.

With her glasses, a small hair bun on top, and a warm smile, the three already had a good first impression of her.

"You three are the new kids, right?" The teacher asked as she waved at the three.

"Yes, Miss Amy." The three replied as they all stopped right before her.

"Thank you. You may go back into your seat..."

Slowly, Miss Amy got up from her seat before walking over to the blackboard.

"Good morning everyone. How was your time with Miss Amelia?"

"Good!" Everyone in the class replied out loud.

"That's great to hear. Ahem, since I just came back today, I'm going to do a roll call first..."

After a short role call, Miss Amy released an announcement that instantly made the entire class excited.

"Today, I'm going to bring all of you to the School's Arena. I want everyone in a single file line."

"Yes, ma'am!"

Ten minutes later...

As the class stood outside of the building, everyone was already in awe of the number of people.

Without even entering inside yet, hundreds of thousands of people were standing nearby talking to each other.

Almost everyone was wearing a robe except other young students similar to their age, led by other teachers.

As Miss Amy led the class inside the building, everyone fell in awe of all the decorations.

The biggest shock was the giant tree right in the middle. It was so tall that it pierced through the cloud above, unable to see its ending.

"Class 204. Room 24." A receptionist murmured as soon as Miss Amy walked towards her.

"Thank you."

After Miss Amy accepts a keycard from the receptionist, she leads the class into a giant door before scanning the keycard.

The door slowly slid to the side, revealing a pitch-black room that had nothing inside.

"Okay, time for you guys to go inside... Except Justin, please come over here and wait with me."

As each of the classmates went in one by one, they all disappeared as soon as they stepped forward.

After the person in front of Alex went inside, he took a deep breath before stepping forward himself.
