Lampresh informed me about the training facility. Here’s what I received from Lampresh.

✉ From: Lampresh

Greetings, Your Excellency. I am Lampresh of the Dowd clan. It is an honor to greet you like this. I heard you don’t prefer long formalities, so I’ll skip them and get straight to the point.

According to Ezel, your pet human has already shown aggression, so I strongly recommend education if that’s the case.

I personally inquired about your human’s information from the seller.

This human is 20 years old, and is a specimen who was abandoned by their parents at a young age and didn’t receive proper education. Age 20 is just becoming an adult by Earth standards. Even as an adult, they’re still young, so their thinking should be flexible enough that if you entrust them to us quickly, we can certainly correct their problematic behaviors.

The following is what I’ve investigated. The human you’re raising is male. Some human males naturally have very violent tendencies. This is mostly considered to be habits wrongly acquired from a backward social environment rather than instinctual issues. Therefore, the violence can be fully corrected.

Currently, my cage has created a perfect environment for education. The humans in my cage consist only of perfectly educated male humans who understand the significance of the human training facility. The 40 humans in the cage will devote themselves diligently only to disciplining your human.

All training processes are recorded on video. You can check the processes in real-time, and ultimately, both the original and edited videos will be sent to you as mementos. We will provide you with good opportunities to enjoy various aspects of human behavior.

Let me explain about the disciplinary process as well.

The discipline will be adjusted to whatever level you desire.

The strongest level of discipline is to leave the training method completely to the autonomy within the cage.

At this disciplinary level, all types of violence that human imagination allows occur. The humans in my cage have learned creative torture methods through long-term training. If you wish, they will torment and discipline the human in various ways. If you prefer specific methods, we can certainly accommodate that.

When choosing the highest level, sometimes parts of the human’s body may be lost. But there’s no need to worry. I have perfect facilities for treating humans. Since these facilities have been improved through research on human bodies, you don’t need to worry about permanent damage remaining.

At the weakest level of discipline, violence is completely restricted.

In this case, humans conduct all training through conversation. Since Earth languages differ by country, please note that if you choose this training process, they will receive language recognition surgery.

Personally, if you care for the human quite a bit, I think the middle level of discipline would be fine.

The weakest level of discipline lacks entertainment value when you receive the video memento later. With appropriate physical punishment mixed into the education, intelligent beings like humans are quickly disciplined.

If you dislike your pet human getting damaged (even if it can be treated), there are other educational methods besides direct physical punishment. It involves making humans experience and imprint psychological fear. Since human minds are rather weak, depending on the individual, quite successful results can be achieved even in a short period.

Humans who complete training in the cage will become perfectly obedient.

If you entrust your human to us, I, Lampresh, will train them with utmost sincerity and dedication.

Thank you.

Record of Lampresh’s email

✉ From: Lampresh

I apologize, Your Excellency.

It was my oversight not to realize how much you care for your human.

As you mentioned, the pet humans I have are violent. They are all male specimens with violent tendencies from the human species, survivors of kill-or-be-killed survival games.

However, they are also well-socialized specimens with perfectly established hierarchies. There will absolutely never be any problems among them. When we receive a new human at the training facility, we never accept another new human until training for one individual is complete. We strive to focus on one human to complete perfect training.

Of course, I understand your concerns as well. Even at the lowest level of discipline, it’s not just physical violence that can be harmful.

But please don’t worry about that either. I have various methods to immediately sanction any verbal abuse beyond my desired range.

The reason I recommended violent methods was because many pet human owners enjoy sadistic acts. I apologize for presumptively guessing Your Excellency’s intentions.

We can certainly provide moderate methods of discipline that won’t harm your human at all, though this will take somewhat longer. At the training facility, we will only educate your human to understand the situation and teach them proper pet human behavior.

I, Lampresh, swear on the honor of the Dowd clan.

I decided to meet Lampresh once. I’m not putting my hopes in the training facility. However, since the human has been very low in spirits recently, I thought it might be good to at least let them meet their own kind.

I heard the Dowd clan’s situation hasn’t been good lately, and I could see that Lampresh was tense, wanting to make a good impression on me.

Lampresh brought along the highest-ranking human from their cage. That human was much bigger and more handsome than my human. Their hair was golden and eyes were brown. Lampresh introduced the human’s name as Strawberry (again, the pronunciation is different, but it means strawberry in our language).

Anyway, I carefully put Strawberry, whom Lampresh brought, into the cage. My human, who has now become familiar with me, was near the pond even when I approached. The human was startled to see Strawberry.

The two began to talk about something. It seemed they couldn’t communicate well as they mixed in hand and foot gestures while talking.

They got along quite well. Strawberry opened both arms to hug my human, and my human cried their eyes out in Strawberry’s embrace for whatever reason. I didn’t feel good about my human acting as if I had been mistreating them all this time.

Lampresh, probably sensing my mood, pulled Strawberry aside. Then my human followed Strawberry around like a puppy. Seeing that rather pitiful sight, I stopped Lampresh. The two humans stuck together closely and giggled for quite a while.

The human got along very happily with Strawberry. Yet they only showed discontent when I took care of them.

Though seemingly harmless, Strawberry was the highest-ranking human in a cage where violent discipline was possible. If I chose the highest intensity of training, they would torture my human without hesitation right now.

I didn’t like it.

When I tried to separate my human from Strawberry, my human strongly resisted and struggled to break free from me.

When I had no choice but to let go, Strawberry cautiously approached my human after reading the situation. The human who had bitten and kicked me smiled sweetly in front of Strawberry.

I felt absolutely disgusted.

I told Lampresh I would entrust the human to the training facility. Sensing my displeasure, Lampresh suggested high-level discipline. Of course, I had no such intention. High-level discipline would be extremely cruel to a human who had been bedridden just from the shock of being caught by Lavas.

I requested the weakest level of discipline from Lampresh. We agreed to send the human tomorrow and I sent Lampresh and Strawberry back for now.

Left alone in the cage, my human looked around and then read the “TOEIC, From Basics to Practice” book that had been left outside until late into the night. Even after the artificial sun had set, they wouldn’t put the book down, so I had to forcibly take it away.

I don’t like this.

I sent the human to the training facility.

I repeatedly emphasized to Lampresh. Since this human gets scared just from being caught and slightly scratched by a few Lavas, absolutely no threatening behavior should be shown.

While I put the human in the transport cage and handed them over to Lampresh, the human was extremely tense and huddled in a corner. Lampresh had attached cameras that could monitor from the transport cage. They planned to film video in real-time so that the human could be monitored throughout their stay at the training facility.

It didn’t take long to reach the training facility. When we took the human out of the transport cage, they came out looking very frightened.

The first one to appear as soon as the human came out was Strawberry, whom we saw last time. Strawberry smiled and took care of my human in a gentlemanly way. Strawberry’s attitude was very affectionate, and there was no trace of the violence Lampresh had mentioned.

The other humans were the same. All the humans at the training facility were kind to my human. Of course they would be. They would know they’d all die if they went against my mood, and Lampresh must have given them strict warnings.
