Chapter 5-5 ( Temporary ) Morning bath and failure

 "Ahh ...... it feels too good ......”

 

It must be quite a luxury for the three of us to enjoy a morning bath together when the sun was still rising.

Although the bathtub at Hayato's house for guests is a western style bathtub with a white base color and is a little smaller than our bathtub, it is a good size for the three of us to enjoy.

 

“Bubble, bubble, bubble!”

 

Shiro is innocently playing with the bubbles by lifting it out of the bathtub.

This time, I used “ soap that bubbles a lot ” to make a bubble bath covered with bubbles.

The reason for this is that my bathtub is made of cypress wood, so I can't do that kind of thing.

Naturally, I had already asked Hayato for permission, so there was no problem.

 

“Lord, look at this!"

 

After saying this, Shiro got up from the bathtub and proceeded to lift up a large amount of bubbles and let it cling to her body.

The bubbles were not watery, so they swelled up and covered Shiro's body in bubbles until her body was no longer visible.

 

“Sheep people. Meh!"

 

Shiro seemed to be imitating the Sheep People by using the fluffy bubbles as fur.

But alas, I don't know Sheep People......

 

"Oooh. Cute, cute.”

"Mwah. It's goofy......”

 

Even if it is said so, it can't be helped because you don't know.

But it's true that she's cute, so forgive her.

 

“Ma, master ......”

“Hmm? Bubuh!”

 

When I looked at the other side when Wendy called me, I burst out unintentionally.

 

"Meh, meh .......”

 

Wendy also seems to be imitating the sheep people by putting bubbles on her body, but there are not enough bubbles because most of the bubbles have been taken away by White.

As a result, her belly button is fully visible, but her large breasts and other important parts are just barely hidden by the bubbles.

 

"This is ......"

“Ugh, this is embarrassing. ......”

"No, it's great ......"

 

I don't know how to describe it.

It's like a sheep without any clothes on.

Please let me shear your wool!

 

“Muuu...... strange, this is where Lord should have unintentionally hugged Shiro because of Shiro's loveliness...... when this happened.”

 

Shiro let out a cry of frustration and dropped the bubbles from his tummy area.

But the remaining bubbles remained unnaturally swollen, so that it looked like a sheep that had had only its stomach hair clipped off, and I couldn't help but laugh.

 

“Why do you laugh at ....... Shiro must have big tits now.”

"Hmmm. Fake ones are no match for the real ones."

“Mwah! You're a second-best ......."

“It's original, it wasn't like ...... Shiro!”

"You were shy ...... about it, but if you're going to hide it, you might as well hide your tummy.”

"What do you mean!"

“Hey, stop...... at least let's get along in the bathroom, okay?”

 

It is a morning bath after all.

I wanted to relax and enjoy it.

The two seemed discontented, but they obeyed, and in return, their arms were firmly taken from both sides.

 

“Mmm ...... a little hot ......”

"Would you like some water to lower the temperature?”

"Yeah. Wendy, can you please?”

“Yes. But only a little so you don't catch a cold"

"Thank you."

 

Well, the argument wasn't even serious.

When Wendy diluted the hot water with water magic, the bubbles floating at the top flowed out with it.

Shiro looked a little disappointed to see that, so I decided to make bubbles again for her.

 

"Bubbles, bubbles, bubbles...”

 

Looking at her like this, she looks like a child, despite her age, or rather a little younger than that. ......

It's hard to believe she's that strong.

 

"Speaking of which, Shiro"

“Well, I'm not going to tell you yet why.”

"No, no, no. I mean, are you sure you don't want to participate in the martial arts tournament in the capital?"

"Hmm. ......"

 

Oh, she's not being very convincing.

Hayato mentioned that he would also be participating, and I wonder if he still feels the need to fight with someone strong.

 

“I don't want to reveal my skills in front of potential enemies of Lord.”

"Hmm? No, but Shiro is strong! If you can prove that you're strong, then no one will try to mess with us, right?"

 

And since I'm sitting in the seat Hayato prepared for me, if they know I'm related to Hayato, they won't mess with me unless they know I'm related to Hayato.

But there are exceptions to everything, and you just never know.

But it's also true that we can't do anything because we're suspicious of everything. ......

 

“What about you personally, Shiro?”

“Well, I'd like to fight someone who's ...... strong."

"If so, you're welcome to participate, okay?”

“Hmm......”

 

I don't intend to act in a way that will cause resentment, and I plan to return to Einsheil after the tournament is over and live a carefree, relaxed life of alchemy once again.

I think there will be no problem as long as there is nothing serious.

 

“Don't worry about me, if Shiro wants to do it, you can, okay?”

“N...... I'll decide by the end of the day and tell Hayato.”

"Okay. There might be a deadline and stuff, so just make it quick.

"Hmmm.”

 

Shiro replied in a small voice and spilled the water with both hands, scooping up the hot water as if she were thinking, and then squeezed my hand.

I shook her hand and squeezed it back.

 

 

When we got out of the bath, the sun had already risen and we realized that it had been quite some time.

The temperature was low enough, and I had prepared cold water nearby, so it seemed I had taken a long bath.

When I went to the dining table, I found Hayato, Letty, and Chris eating together.

 

“Oh my, you are unusually early”

"It's just a coincidence. I'm sorry, but I got a bath in the morning|

"Good morning, Itsuki-san. I see you had a bath in the morning."

“Yes, I did. Can we have breakfast, too?"

“Yes. I understand. I'll get it for you"

 

Chris was the one who answered.

It's a typical breakfast menu on the table.

But I've been feeling something the past few days .......

 

“Oh, can I talk to you for a minute, Hayato?”

"Yes, I do. What is it?”

“You know,...... the ingredients for these meals are pretty expensive,......?”

 

Yes, the food at my house is usually expensive and tasty, but the food served at Hayato's house is a step above that.

For example, this bacon is from “King Piggle,” which we don't often have access to in my house.

And this fried egg is made from an iron Albatross egg.

This egg has an iron shell, so it is difficult to crack it open, but it is quite tasty.

The yolk is so fresh that the yolk rises to a surprisingly high level and the layers are well separated, and whether baked or cooked, the rich flavor of the egg spreads in the mouth.

Naturally, it is also quite expensive.

Such expensive ingredients are being consumed in large quantities by the three adventurers and Shiro, who are in the prime of their appetites.

 

“Uh, ...... eh. Don't mind about that, okay?”

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Chris is here, and you're our guests, so it's not worth worrying about."

"Not so fast ....... At any rate, we're eating at least six million Nors......"

"Well, Itsuki-san has been a great help to us, and we really don't mind"

"No, but you know,......."

 

In fact, I'm the one who's been taking care of you in the present.

We have been here for more than 10 days, and we must be eating at least 6 million Nors worth of food a day.

And the dinner is even more lavish, and if I'm not careful, even 6 million might be insufficient.

It would be hard for me not to do something!

 

“For now, 6 million Nors! If it's not enough, I'll pay you extra later.”

"No, no, no, it's really okay!

“Oh, no, it's really okay! If rumors spread that we took money from a customer, Hayato will be in trouble, so do us a favor and accept it."

 

Rumors .......

The aristocrats are such a pain in the ass.

 

"No, but you know, ......"

“Oh, geez. You are persistent. If you want to do something so bad, why don't you make something? You're an alchemist, right?”

 

...... I see.

If direct money is not good, I should make something and give it to them.

But the only thing I can do is to make accessories.

 

“Oh, then, Itsuki-san. I, too, would like a fan to put in the bathroom that we were talking about the other day!”

 

A fan.......

I remember we talked about that when I was with Oligor.

But that one won't have a purification function without holy water, is that ok?

So, if I could make one, it would be a wind blower......

 

"I can't add the purification function because I don't have holy water, is that okay with you?'

"Yes! This world is dominated by magic and magic stones instead of machines, so I still want something that can easily cool me down!"

"I see. I'll let it happen then. ....... I'll put all my skill into making it!"

“Yes! I'll be looking forward to it!"

 

Then I guess I'll have to make a fan today.

I hope I can somehow complete it before the martial arts competition starts, but that's two days from now.

It would be nice if I could do it by just messing around like I had done with the “Vibrator,” but the size is not the same.

And I'd like to include a wide variety of functions anyway.

Well, let's start with the basic structure.

 

"Hmm......"

What's up, Shiro?

"Thanks for the ......."

"What? What, what's the matter, Shiro! What's wrong? You got a tummy ache?"

"No, I'm full"

 

Rumbling. And her tummy rumbles cutely in this comedy-like timing.

That means she's hungry as usual, right?

Perhaps she heard the conversation and refrained!

 

"Oh, I'm sorry! You've got it all wrong. That's not what I meant!”

 

That wasn't the right thing to say in front of Shiro, who was eating a lot.

I just thought it was because I happened to see Hayato at mealtime. ......

 

"Don't be shy! I'd be happier if Shiro ate a lot of food!”

"But ......"

 

In fact, it's nice to see Shiro eat so much.

I love how she eats so pleased and happy.

For that reason, my effort is nothing!

 

“Isn't it fine? Chris said she's glad you ate so much."

"Yes, that's right. I already made breakfast for Shiro-san, so eat up!

"Nn.......”

 

Shiro glanced up at me.

Oh, I'm really sorry.

I didn't mean to make you look so sad.

 

“Don't hesitate to eat! Shiro, you don't have to worry about anything!”

 

Please! To keep my peace of mind!

 

"Shiro. It's okay to eat.”

"Nn......”

 

Finally, encouraged by Wendy's motherly smile, Shiro mumbled a few words, nodded, and munched on the bacon still stuck in her fork, swallowed, and smiled.

 

"Delicious.”

 

Oh, that one word alone is enough to save my day.

That smile gives me comfort and peace.

Chris is the one who made it.

 

"Mmmm......n!”

 

After thinking about something for a while, Shiro resumed eating again.

We finished our meal first and slowly enjoyed our after- meal tea while watching Shiro eat happily.

Okay, let's keep our spirits up!
