“No, this is a perfectly reasonable request!”

Master’s gaze at me turned crooked. He stared at me with a terrifying look, then nodded his head as though telling me to speak.

“First, please dispose of all the toys here. Every single one of them!”

His blue eyes shook aimlessly. He looked shocked.

“Why?”

It was cruel, but he seemed to need to learn the reality even now. The things here were objects that shouldn’t exist in this world. And yet, toys for lovers? What nonsense.

“Even if all the men in this world disappeared, I would never use these toys. If I’d die from not using these toys, I’d choose death without hesitation!”

My emotions ran high and my words came out harsher than intended. But it wasn’t an exaggeration, so it didn’t matter.

“What I made… is that bad?”

“I hate to say this, but have these toys ever sold?”

“Of course…!”

“Not for t*rture purposes.”

At my question, Master only moved his lips. He couldn’t answer no in the end.

“Then there’s your answer, Master. The toys here should have been disposed of long ago.”

Master’s face became stained with pain. As expected of someone with such good looks, even his suffering looked beautiful. The disgusting d*ldos hanging everywhere became self-mosaicked, stirring protective instincts, and only his fatal face entered my vision.

“Everything I made is garbage…”

It was truly surprising that he only realized this now.

Did Master not have any proper people around him?

Anyway, after learning the dark side of Master, who had been like an idol to me, I felt uncomfortable. The Master in my imagination, who seemed like he’d have excellent character to match his tremendous abilities, had now disappeared without a trace.

I wish I’d never known.

Just then, a sulky voice suddenly popped out.

“How do you plan to compensate for this situation?”

“What? Compensate for what exactly…?”

“My toys. They’re being disposed of because of you.”

“They haven’t been… disposed of yet.”

The last handful of pride stuck its head out without any sense. That seemed to provoke Master’s mood.

He twitched one eyebrow and drew a magic circle in the air. The t*rture d*ldos that had filled the room burst into flames. And they instantly turned to ash and disappeared. I was more flustered watching this.

“Uh, um…?”

“Is that enough now?”

“No, well… I didn’t mean for you to burn them right away…?”

“Then what should we start with?”

“When you ask like that, I’m not really sure either…”

“You’re not going to say you don’t know, are you? Because of whom did my toys jump into the flames?”

What an absolutely insane person. Even if I had said such things, he did it with his own hands yet pushed the responsibility onto me.

They say the Archmages of the Mage Tower are all crazy bastards.

Those words were absolutely right. As I just gaped my lips in bewilderment, murderous intent bloomed in Master’s eyes. That gaze was no different from a killer’s.

“If you value your life, you better not have been running your mouth carelessly.”

Fortunately, I was someone who knew the value of life.

“O-of course not! I was about to say you came to the right place. My nickname is actually D*ldo Doctor. There’s no toy in the world I haven’t used!”

“Dr. D*ldo? Are you sure?”

Shame washed over me at this baseless nickname that came from who knows where. But right now, the only important thing was my one and only life.

“Of course…! I don’t know if you’ve heard of it, but… I was the first to develop the famous 360-degree aerial rotation pounding technique!”

Master’s eyes narrowed. He seemed to be judging the truth. I hoped my answer pleased him.

Actually, even at this moment, I was engulfed in fear that my heart might stop. Because I had no idea what this 360-degree aerial rotation pounding technique was either.

“…Just hearing about it sounds like an incredible technique.”

Fortunately, my bluff worked successfully. Relief was brief—the real persuasion started now.

“So just trust what I say and follow along. To make good toys, you only need to think about these three things.”

“What three things?”

I’d once asked the older women I worked with what was most important for enjoyable s*x. The women had answered with excited faces, giving various responses.

The first person to speak was Parslia.

“First, no matter what anyone says, it’s size. They say too much isn’t good, but those people are all being coy. If you tell them to choose between a finger and a club, they’ll all pick the club, right?”

“First is overwhelming size. The bigger the better. Let’s see… it should be at least as thick as two of my forearms combined to be enjoyable.”

“Really?”

The next person to speak was Reina. Reina never got excited easily about anything and maintained composure, but that was the first time she raised her voice.

“Parslia, that’s why people say you’re still a child. What’s important about size? It’s only good to look at, and if it can’t perform, it’s useless. The most important thing is strong power and the technique to move a woman’s heart.”

“Second is power! If it’s weak, it’s completely useless. And even if it’s a d*ldo, it needs to know how to move like it’s alive!”

“Keep that in mind too.”

The last person to speak was Tarti, who was usually very shy. She tried to keep only beautiful and pretty things around her, but this didn’t just apply to objects.

“I think Reina doesn’t know either. What’s the use of being crudely strong with good technique? It has to be pretty to look at to be good to use too. Right? Hoho.”

“Third, it has to be aesthetically pleasing. The color, the shape, even the texture against the skin! I absolutely hate disgusting things.”

In the end, no winner was decided in that day’s conversation. Each woman insisted she was right, and only voices got louder. Finally, they concluded by respecting everyone, saying there’s no wrong answer in preferences.

And those conversations gave me great enlightenment. For enjoyable s*x, it’s not just the heart that’s important.

“I see.”

After hearing my answer, Master had a troubled face. Actually, even I couldn’t imagine how to make a d*ldo, so Master must be worse off. Then suddenly, a brilliant idea came to mind.

I don’t need to take on the troublesome work myself, right?

So I’d naturally introduce someone to do it with him. For example, the true pervert Parslia. And if the two of them hit it off and even fell in love, wouldn’t that be the best?

Then Master gets someone to love and develops good toys. And I benefit by getting help with magical research.

The more I thought about it, the better this ending seemed. However, if I blatantly pushed my work onto him, it would be too obvious I was trying to get something for nothing, so natural guidance was important.

“I have a good idea for Master.”

“What is it?”

Light returned to his blue eyes that had been drifting like the deep sea. Master was truly serious about making toys.

“You should find someone you love. Someone reliable to do all this with.”

I was confident I could entice him with all sorts of words that would interest Master. Parslia was pretty and had a beautiful body, so she was popular even in the store. So Master might fall for her once they meet.

For that to happen, Parslia needs to still be enjoying a free and happy single life.

Of course, that applied to Master too. Fortunately, looking at that strange obsession with toys, he definitely seemed to still be unmarried.

“Why bother?”

The response was colder than expected. I could see his lukewarm attitude at a glance, but I couldn’t give up here. I had to persuade him by any means necessary.

“Uh, um. I mean… it’s better to do that kind of thing with someone you love anyway. Plus, from what I can see, for toy development, I think it would be good if Master learned about ways to please women.”

One of Master’s eyebrows rose. He seemed not to understand what I was trying to say. I continued explaining carefully, choosing my words one by one.

“You need to know such basics to make toys well. And these methods can only be naturally learned when both parties engage in physical dialogue. If you want, I’ll introduce you to someone really great.”

I thought I’d explained quite well, but his face grew darker. Did I misspeak? I was anxious that I might have touched some forbidden reverse scale.

“I’m not convinced.”

“What part exactly? I think I explained it well…”

A firm voice soon followed.

“First, I really hate hypocritical acts disguised with the word love. Second, I have an assistant, so why would I need that?”

“Don’t tell me that assistant is… me?”

“Yes, so just remove love from what you just said, and we can engage in physical dialogue, right?”

An unexpected story hit me all at once. My mind went blank. I was so shocked my brain felt like it wasn’t functioning properly.

So he’s saying we should have s*x? With such a nonchalant expression?

Master’s face was as peaceful as though he were making casual conversation about how sunny tomorrow’s weather would be.

“That’s absolutely not happening, Master! How can we engage in physical dialogue!”

“You clearly agreed to become my assistant and help make toys, right? In return, I said I’d help with magical research.”

“This is on a completely different level from becoming an assistant and making toys! I planned to do that intimate act with at least someone I share feelings with.”

“Why?”

“What do you mean why? That’s obviously…!”

Suddenly, Master before my eyes felt frustrating like a wall. This person is lacking something. It felt like he was missing one of the most important parts of being human.

Where should I start explaining and how should I persuade him? As I just moved my lips in helplessness, Master spoke first.

“Then let’s do this. Think of me not as a person but as a human d*ldo.”

“What?”

“You’ve used toys more than once or twice anyway, so if you think of me as a toy rather than a human, there’s no problem, right?”

Was he really saying that out loud? I was so appalled I couldn’t continue the conversation. Master looked at me frozen and said as though puzzled.

“And I’m pretty decent, aren’t I?”

“Do people usually say that with their own mouths?”

“There’s no need to bother saying it and tire my mouth.”

Actually, Master’s level of appearance wasn’t easy to find even on the street. If I stayed like this anyway, I might grow old alone while supporting my family, or I might end up marrying someone adequate who didn’t satisfy me.

In that sense, Master was handsome and capable. In other words, not a bad partner.

Hearing it like this, I was quite tempted. As I stared at him with wavering eyes, a sweet smile appeared on Master’s face.

“So just think of me as a handsome d*ldo.”

“A handsome d*ldo…”

It bothered me that I had to do that kind of thing with Master, but so what? It seemed we could never have a normal master-disciple relationship anyway. From the moment I lied about being D*ldo Doctor, I’d thrown conscience far away. The problem was the bluffs I’d piled up…

“So what’s your answer?”

Impatient Master Kozarni urged an answer. I closed my eyes and organized even the last handful of lingering attachment. Since it had come to this, I’d master every d*ldo in this world and desperately avoid getting caught.

“…Fine. I’ll do that kind of thing with Master. But I’d like some time.”

“What time?”

Master’s head tilted crookedly. My answer didn’t seem to please him.

“To have s*x, there should be at least some feelings. I’ll try to develop good feelings toward Master, so please wait a little.”

“You use d*ldos just fine. You need that?”

Hearing such words directly made me embarrassed. Of course, I needed to look like someone who couldn’t live without d*ldos, but I felt some inexplicable shame.

“T-that’s why I try to give my heart before using d*ldos.”

A suspicious gaze followed my pathetic excuse. Feeling guilty for no reason, I muttered something I didn’t need to say.

“So, um… I touch them with my hands, hold them in my arms. And… give them nicknames and things like that…”
