“Fiuh…. I knew a herb bath would be soothing….. Albus. I’m sorry for you giving free accommodation for us too.”
“Don’t worry about it. In return, I want a three percent discount on the escort on the way home.”
“Hahaha. You’re so thoughtful, aren’t you? Well, with Ushama, we were able to move much faster, and because of that, we were attacked by monsters much less often. I certainly got paid too much.”
The two of us, Burgess and I, were soaking in a herbal bath in the VIP bathroom that Arcana had prepared for us.
“It’s not fair if it’s just the three of you! Loloi also wants to have a naked relationship!”
And then Loloi was in her room making a fuss.
However, it was actually a signal for Clarice who was late behind.
That’s right.
It was a setting!
Which means our plan is already in the works!
I’ve successfully led Burgess through Loloi, and just the two of us, me and Burgess, are soaking in the bathtub first.
After this, I say I’m “done” and leave early. Then Chris, who has become Clarice, takes a bath with Burgess alone.
All of this was Arcana’s plan!
My wife is a very clever woman!
“I haven’t soaked in hot water in a long time, so I’m a bit overtired. I’m sorry, but I’m going to go up first.”
With that, I went to get out of the hot water as I had planned.
‘Well…I guess I’ll go up then.” (Burgess)
“No, Burgess. You can stay as long as you want ”
“Hmm? We’re going to be here for a while anyway, so if we want to come in, we can come in anytime we want.”
“No… you stay in here a little longer, Burgess.”
“What?”
Damn…that’s ridiculous.
It’s already starting to impede the continuation of the operation.
“Chris will be here soon, and it would be a pity to let him go in alone, wouldn’t it? Besides, if by any chance you had failed to persuade her, Loloi might ended up with him, right?”
I was embarrassed to admit it.
I was also quite uncomfortable using Loloi as bait here.
But I had no choice!
All for the sake of continuing the mission!
It’s for Clarice.
“Sure thing, huh! I’ll wait as long as it takes for you to come, Loloi!”
Burgess is already snickering.
You perverted bastard.
“No, no…”
Don’t look at Loloi like that!
She’s either your sister or your daughter!
And I was soaking in the hot water again, urged on by Burgess, and just couldn’t find the right moment to get out.
“I was just kidding about Loloi,” he said.
“What?”
I need to get out of here as soon as possible…
“About Chris… You’re going on a peddling trip after the Kilket auction, right? Then definitely take him with you. You’re aware of Chris and Loloi, aren’t you?”
In other words, Burgess is saying that Chris and Loloi are falling in love.
“……”
No, I used to think that too.
There was a time when I thought Chris and Loloi had a nice vibe or something.
That’s not the case, Burgess!
Chris is Clarice.
A girl.
And she likes you!
“Chris has been sneaking out of his room in the middle of the night sometimes lately. Maybe he’s meeting up with Loloi.”
Burgess looked up at the sky a little sadly.
It’s not right!
It’s definitely not right!
“People say I’m Cupid all the time, but I never feel like I’m missing out on anything. When I see young people chasing their dreams, I genuinely want to support them.”
“Burgess…”
Burgess aniki!
How could you be such a good guy!
I won’t call you a pervert anymore!
But no! I wouldn’t let you to put your hand on Loloi!
But Chris, I mean Clarice…
Aah! I want to say it!
I want to say it all here!
“What’s up, Albus?”
Me writhing alone.
Burgess looked at me curiously.
→→→→→
Burgess, Albus. I’m coming in.”
”
Then I heard Clarice’s voice.
“Wa…”
Before I can say, “Wait!”, the entrance door rattles open.
Wait, wait, wait…
That’s not the plan!
You can’t come in while I’m here.
Maybe she got impatient to me not coming out of the bath as planned.
“Oh! Finally you come! Arcana’s herb baths are the best!”
Without looking at her, Burgess called out to Clarice.
He then enjoyed the medicinal herb bath by washing his face in the bubbling water and smelling the fragrance.
