……?
It’s, morning?
There’s a presence of a person. In order to confirm that presence, I gently open my eyes.
「! ! ! !」
I’m surprised. Really surprised.1
What was it, you ask? There was a person’s face in front of me when I woke up you know!?
Furthermore, it was really in front of me, a position where I could feel their breath!
「M-Mary-san!? What are you doing!!?」
Right, it was Mary-san who was looking into my face.
I shifted my body and somehow got up.
「N-No, I wasn’t doing anything you know! I came to wake Sakura up. And then, that, sleeping face was…」
What did she say, I couldn’t make it out since her voice was so small during the middle of it…
「Though I understand you came to wake me up… However, why was your face so close?」
From my question, Mary-san’s face had turned bright red for some reason.
「W-W-Why? That, that’s right! I used some strength since you wouldn’t get up, so because of that, I’d gotten that close before I realized. There’s no mistaking it! I never thought about something like a k-kiss you know!?」
Ha? Kiss? What is she talking about? If I’m not mistaken, one wrong move and we would’ve been at kissing distance2…
「What? I don’t really understand but… For the time being, you came to wake me up right? Thank you very much for specially doing that.」
「N-No, don’t worry about it. …If I had to say, I would be the one thanking you (whisper).」
U~n? Isn’t something, strange? Although I don’t know what’s strange…
「Hey~, how long is it going to take to wake her up? Quickly have your meals so we can depart!」
Meriana-san appears to be angry since we’re slow.
I quickly prepared in order not to keep them waiting any longer, then headed to where everybody was.
Nothing particularly happened during the journey, the town of Fluud came into view.
It’s probably 3 o’clock in the afternoon right now. We arrived earlier than I thought.
Although it appears that the town of Fluud is smaller than the Royal Capital, it seems it’s the third largest town in Sobule.
After our carriage received a check at the town’s entrance, we proceeded inside the town.
The impression inside the town, it doesn’t appear to be much difference from the Royal Capital from what I see.
Maybe there’s less street stalls compared to the Royal Capital?
The carriage continued to advance without change, then stopped in front of an inn.
This seems to be the inn we’re staying at today and tomorrow.
……It’s a little worn out, no no, it’s a building with history ne.
When we entered the inn, the interior didn’t betray its outer appearance…… I can feel the history.
U~n, I’d rather search for another inn since it’s fine if I pay out of my own pocket.3
It seems Afgar-san has some business to do tomorrow.
Since the commission’s contents was for the journey, it seems we’re free to do what we want until the morning of the day after tomorrow.
Oh? Although it’s late, if you think about it, isn’t it weird having five escorts to a town two days away from the Royal Capital, furthermore, travelling along a highway considered relatively safe? But the reward wasn’t that high…. Maybe, I’m over thinking it?
Ah, it seems the room arrangements are, Afgar-san in a private room, and the rest of us will be separated into the men’s room and the ladies’ room.
I went to my designated room and dropped off my baggage.
Since this was perfect, I asked the two people about the thing I thought about earlier.
The result, five people certainly appears excessive, but it seems monsters and thieves have recently appeared along the highway, so it looks like it’s not that weird.
Aah, now that you mention it, we were attacked by Orcs last night ne.
fumu, was I worrying too much after all?
「More importantly, let’s go to the bath! Since we didn’t get to enter yesterday~.」
Meriana-san suddenly suggested that sort of thing.
Could we enter at such a time? It’s not even 4 o’clock.
「The bath huh…… that’s right. What will Sakura do?」
Mary-san as well…? Could we even enter at this time? No, leaving that aside, does this inn have a bath?
「If you ask me if I want to enter, then I’d like to but… It’s only 8 koku you know? Can we enter?」
「Aー, is this Sakura’s first time at Fluud? Fluud has a public bath you see. That place can be entered anytime from 6 koku until 12 koku.」
‘And so that’s why this town has many inns without baths’, was what I was told.
So it’s something like a bathhouse huh.
Since it’s been awhile, I’ll try going. Rather, I won’t be able to take a bath if I don’t go to the bathhouse…
I told them I wanted to go as well, then prepared my bath set, like soap and a change of clothes, from my baggage.
When I finished my preparations, those two guided me towards the public bathhouse.
After getting out of the bath, there has to be milk ne!
No, it doesn’t mean I need to replenish a bit of calcium okay?
Hey, it’s something like, a Japanese person’s aesthetic, isn’t it?
It’s not like I’m worrying about such things like my height or my chest that I’m drinking it, okay?
Besides, this is goat’s milk.
By the way, it seems there’s no scientific evidence that drinking cow’s milk will also make your chest grow larger.
When I heard that…… I was shocked.
Eh? What happened in the bath?
I’d prefer not to remember it if possible…
The public bath was a large splendid building, built entirely with bricks.
The interior was just like a Japanese bathhouse, it was separated into the men’s bath and women’s bath.
There were no showers in the bathroom, it was a large bathtub and two small bathtubs.
When I looked at Mary-san and Meriana-san, they drew water from the small bathtub then washed it over their body, so I imitated them, I realized the small bathtubs were each filled with hot and cold water respectively, so the temperature had to be controlled before washing your body.
Also, Mary-san was normal when we were coming to the public bath, but her state changed once we entered the dressing room. Her face had become bright red and her breathing was disordered… What could’ve happened?
I was concerned, but apart from that, Meriana-san was the bigger problem4. Meriana-san said she would wash my back, but she continued to touch weird places because her hands kept slipping… She still made a racket when we submerged ourselves in the bath, finally, the manager-san (?) got angry.
E n o u g h a b o u t t h a t !
I learned about the cruel difference in society.
Breasts even if I face the right, breasts even if I face the left.
I searched for the chests that stood out, but the smallest is C. The largest? fu…
Furthermore, I ended up noticing a child around 10 years old with a B.
Is this the thing called despair…?
……Oh, there’s sweat coming from my eyes…
IT’S NOT LIKE I’M SAD.
