To determine the answer to this question, we can analyze the text of "The Story Teller" by Saki. In the story, the bachelor tells a rather fantastical and moralistic tale to a group of children, who seem to enjoy it. However, the aunt is portrayed as being critical of the story. To identify the specific reason the aunt finds the bachelor's story improper, we need to look for clues in the text.
Option A states that the aunt finds the story improper because it makes fun of Bertha's goodness. However, there is no indication in the story that the aunt has any objections to Bertha's goodness being satirized, so we can eliminate this option.
Option B suggests that the aunt finds the story improper due to its many fantasy elements. While it is true that the bachelor's story is indeed filled with imaginative and fantastical elements, there is no direct evidence in the story to suggest that the aunt takes issue with this aspect. So, we can also eliminate this option.
Option C implies that the aunt finds the story improper because it unrealistically suggests that virtue is always rewarded. This is a valid point to consider as the aunt in the story reacts negatively to the conclusion of the bachelor's story, where the good children meet an unjust fate, contrasting with the usual expectations that virtuous behavior should be rewarded. Therefore, this option seems plausible.
Option D proposes that the aunt finds the story improper because the bachelor tells it without invitation, interrupting the aunt's story to do so. While it is true that the bachelor interrupts the aunt's story to tell his own, this interruption is not explicitly presented as the reason for the aunt's objection to the story's content. Thus, we can eliminate this option.
From our analysis, it can be inferred that the correct answer is:
C. It unrealistically suggests that virtue is always rewarded.
