I'm reading this with an old mindset, and by that I mean if I was in their era I'd think that this was probably not uncommon. It doesn't make it okay but it does help me get through the story ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

Yes. I do agree. If it was then, consent between nobles and commoners never existed. It was good enough (probably) that hos majesty healed uke using an expensive gem. If it had been at the palace, the maids may eventually gossiped saying uke was treated favourably because that's what status gap meant back then. U just can't say no to royalties.
Okay so, I'm actually still confused about the whole student thing. Like, I wish they clarified that more coz the way I understand it is that tengoku was definitely touching them inappropriately and it's what I hate about this manga.
However, I was giving the benefit of the doubt and thought it was an indirect meaning of something, a dysphemism maybe. Tengoku mentioned that he didn't do anything to them that would give him jail time and I thought perhaps that meant he wasn't touching them directly, but instructing them on how to touch themselves on the side (which is still icky but I can stomach that). The "he opened his legs" might be an indirect way of saying kaisai(?) opened himself up to tengoku (like he was comfortable enough to pour his heart out?). BUT tengoku said he was having fun with them and his idea of fun isn't exactly teacher-like. Ugh, fuxk !
Either way, the only reason I read through this is because of Aoki but it is hard to give it a 5 star when it's implied tengoku touched his students:// but well, aoki tolerated all that too so maybe they do deserve each other
I'm always so worried when I see that the character is a teacher- is it that difficult to put them in an university to be sure no MINOR is involved??
Considering the way all the students were talking about how you lose your virginity when you go to the nurse I think he's definitely doing a lot more than just telling them how to touch themselves
Disgusting
