Aether really didn't know why he agreed to this, maybe it was the way Yoimiya was always helping him whenever she could that made him not want to say no, maybe it was the way she looked so excited when she asked him for this favor
 
Now he sat on a rock, in front of him several children from around Inazuma, his heart was beating from nervousness when Yoimiya placed her hand on his shoulder
 
“Okay children, today our lesson is going to be a bit different, I'm going to show you what to do and don't do when a pred is looking to gubble you all up” Yoimiya way too happy for what she just said
 
A child raised her hand, when Yoimiya motioned for her to speak she stood up nervously
 
“U-Uhm, big sis, do we really have to learn this now, m-mom said we should learn this when we're older, she said that this is dangerous” the child shyly said
 
“Oh you don't need to worry about that, I'm not gonna show this on you, nope, I have gotten a volunteer to help with all this” Yoimiya pointed at Aether as she said so
 
A couple of nods could be seen amongst the children
 
“Learning this earlier could save your life so listen closely on what I say” Yoimiya said “Now if you notice that you're being followed, run as fast as you can into a safe environment, any ground owned by the Kamisato clan is safe, your homes are safe and the Naganohara workshop is safe”
 
She pulled up Aether so he stood on his feet
 
“Okay, if the pred has caught you then there are some things you can do to increase your chance of survival, always scream for help” Yoimiya poked Aether in the ribs to follow along
 
He hid his face in his hands as he said quietly “Help… Help” Screaming that would have been embarrassing when he wasn't in need of help
 
“...Good enough, now make sure your legs are spread wide so that the pred will be having a hard time, also make sure to use your arms and hands to try and push yourself out” Yoimiya said while Aether made sure to that his legs were far apart as a demonstration, the children nodded along with everything they said, a few was distracted by other things but if they got eaten later it was on them
 
“Now, if the pred has gotten your arms into it's maw, then put all your power into your legs, make sure that your legs don't leave the ground, now for a live demonstration” Yoimiya then whispered to Aether “Are you ready”
 
She got the nod from Aether and she grabbed ahold of him
 
“Look closely at how Aether does it” Yoimiya said before unhinging her maw and pulling Aether into it
 
*Gulp*
 
Just like her instructions, he had spread his legs far apart and he used his hands to try and pull himself out, well he didn't actually try, since to continue the lesson he would need to be inside of her
 
*Gllrrrrrk* *Glulp*
 
Yoimiya's throat bulged as the head of the traveler was visible from the outlines, the children didn't take their eyes of him, some gasped in horror at seeing someone get eaten, especially someone like Aether
 
*Glrrrk* *Gulp* *Sclllrrp*
 
The traveler's arms now being unavailable to use anymore so he used some of his power to stand firm, not all of it, Yoimiya would never be able to get him down if that was the case
 
*Glulp* *Gulp*
 
Yoimiya sat down and grabbed his legs and forced them off the ground, her gut swelled up as Aether was welcomed inside, he made a show of kicking his legs around halfheartedly
 
*Gulp* *GULP*
 
With only his feet outside the shoes were removed before a final *Gllllk* sent the Traveler down into the stomach, Yoimiya traced the bulge until it landed in her stomach
 
*BUAAAAARRRRRP*
 
“Oooph, that took a bit of effort, good show tho Aether” Yoimiya whispered to her belly
 
“Now we continue on to the next part of this lesson, what do you do id your inside someones belly, does anyone here know” Yoimiya asked
 
A young boy raised his hand, when he was allowed to speak he said “Struggle until they let you out?”
 
“Goodness no, struggling is the last thing you wanna do, makes the stomach all giddy and happy and digests you even faster, no what is important is staying calm, find the opening and try to pry that open” Yoimiya noticed that Aether had finally sat upright
 
“Now Aether won't show that method because that will hurt me, just know that it is okay to hurt a pred who has eaten you, now the other method is regurgitation, either because a pred is willing to let you out or if you have some of these” Yoimiya held up a bottle with pills
 
“One of these and the pred will puke you up real fast, I will be letting Aether out after this lesson is done so none of you need to worry about him” Yoimiya pat her belly at those words
 
“Now any questions before any of you need to go prepare for the summer festival tonight” Yoimiya asked
 
One child raised her hand, when she got the okay to ask she stood up
 
“C-could I maybe t-touch your belly”
 
Yoimiya seemed taken aback by that question before she smiled “Yeah sure why not, anyone else wanna feel”
 
A couple children walked forwards, poked and felt the gigantic gut, gasping when they felt Aether in there, unmoving and waiting to be let out
 
“W-wow, I've only seen mom like this” a young boy said
 
“Yes yes, hurry along now, I need to let this guy out and it won't be a pretty sight” Yoimiya told them
 
The children hurried off, but something Yoimiya had noticed during the lesson was that half the class hadn't really focused, instead goofing off and playing around
 
“Hmmm, how to make sure that they learn to be good children who listen” was a question she asked herself
 
“Yoimiya, can you let me out already, my skin is turning read in here” Aether said from within
 
“Uhm yeah, just give me a sec to get you ou-” Yoimiya said before she got an idea
 
“Actually, nope, I think I'll let you stay in there” Yoimiya said cheerily
 
“Y-you can't be serious, Yoimiya this isn't happy” Aether punched from the inside and it made Yoimiya almost fall over, she punched her gut in response
 
“Don't be selfish, I'm just gonna make an example out of you so that the children that didn't listen will take this serious, please melt down for the children” Yoimiya said like he would be doing some kind of noble deed by becoming her fat
 
“SELFISH, YOU'RE ASKING ME TO DIE” Aether yelled outraged
 
“Yup, for the sake of those children, gonna make them realize the dangers that stomachs have” she patted her belly and walked home, her dad was gone for some large order
 
“That's it, I'm forcing my way out” Aether said and tried to force up the opening, he struggled to get a grip with the acids making it all slippery, but he managed to get a grip and he slowly opened it
 
Yoimiya wasn't all that concerned, she opened her door and locked it behind her, all the preparations for tonight was already done so she could relax, she could feel him fit his head through and slowly made his way up
 
*GLULP*
 
Only to be sent down again, just to make sure he wouldn't be trying this later, she laid down on her belly, pressing down on the weakened Traveler
 
“Nuh uh, can't have that, you're gonna stay in there and melt like a good little boy” Yoimiya said childishly
 
“Yoimiya please, you have to let me go, I thought you were my friend” Aether pleaded
 
“Aether, you are my friend, and as your friend I am making sure your life amounts to more than just searching for a sister that doesn't want you” she rested her eyes a bit, taking a nap before the big event tonight
 
Aether himself had practically given up, just sobbing inside the Naganohara's gut, his body slowly breaking down and fattening up Yoimiya
 
*Later that day*
 
“*Yaaaawn* Oh that was a good nap, Aether you still there…” Yoimiya got no response, that was all the answer she needed
 
“Good, you melted in time, would be embarrassing to have you struggling in public” She stretched and stood up, noticing the binds both on her chest and rear a bit tighter than when she went to sleep, a chubbier gut now adorned her as well.
 
“Gonna have to rewrap those later, but first of all I think it's time to let you out again, just like you wanted” She said walking towards the closest bag to dump him in”
 
*Scat Warning*
 
She unwrapped the binds around her ass before squatting over the bag, it couldn't hurt to earn a bit by selling high quality fertilizer, Brown logs exited her shapely rear, fattened up by Inazuma's savior
 
“Come on out Aether,*Hnnnng* I'm in a bit of a hurry here, I don't wanna be *Hnrrrg* late to the festival I'm in charge of”
 
But Aether fought back even now, thick logs were dumped into the bag, she felt bones scratch her anus as they passed it making her groan
 
“Don't be difficult on me, *HNNNG* your digestion is one to a noble cause”
 
Leg bones and ribs left her ass, large cloth pieces that survived the ordeal as well, she looked down to see the progress but all she could see was her own breasts
 
“You sure went to some *Hnnng* perverted places didn't you, not that I mind of course”
 
Finally came time for the skull, the one thing she was thinking of keeping if only to scare the children into listening a bit more, she grunted and groaned trying to slowly push out the cranium whole
 
*Plop*
 
“Phew, gave me a good workout there didn't you”
 
She wiped herself before she picked up the skull with yellow hair using a nearby plastic bag and sealed it shut, the bigger bag was also sealed and labeled ‘Hero Fertilizer’
 
*Scat scene over*
 
“Hopefully I won't be too late to the festival” Yoimiya said as she hurriedly dressed herself and ran out of her home
 
She ran as fast as she could finding herself wheezing, damn fat slowing her down, after a short while she was there by the children
 
“B-big sis, you're he-” The shy girl said before noticing her pudgy gut “D-Did you digest him?”
 
“Hmmm, I noticed that he was secretly a bad guy, and bad guy's doesn't get to come out, as well as bad children who don't listen” Yoimiya said poking her own gut
 
“I-I don't believe it, how could you digest the traveler, he's like super strong” One of the children who didn't listen asked scared
 
“Oh he was tough all right, but like the bad guy he was he met his match” She pulled out the bag with his skull in it
 
Gasps rang out amongst the children
 
“Now are you going to be good children in the future” Yoimiya asked, when she saw the hurried nods from EVERYONE, she felt satisfied
 
“Good, I'm going to quiz you at the end of the week, whoever gets everything right will get the travelers skull as a prize”
 
Yoimiya sat down with the children and watched the fireworks, Aether may be gone but he made the lives of these children so much safer
 
At the end of the week a shy girl showed her parents the prize she won proudly
