"It's 'Fuxxon?' to be blinded by steam and mysterious rays of light while bathing. I thought we were talking about.
When we were in the steam bath, my master said, "I'm not going to take a steam bath.
Shortly before we came to The Ruins of Our Lady, we were purifying ourselves in an impromptu steam bath.
The place was a storage room in our house.
The house we rented had a wooden storeroom out of sight from the outside.
We cleaned it up and put the tattered "iron plaque" from the storage room on the floor.
Lastly, put half of the Rock Lizard's shell on top of it, which is magically heated, and a simple steam bath is complete.
As expected of a master.
I didn't know you could come up with something like this just by hearing about the steam bath system.
That's right. Yes, that's right.
In the 'health resort' where we live, there are many steam baths.
Normally, you pour water on a burnt stone and generate steam.
But in the high-end places, they heat up the Rock Lizard shell and pour water over it. The Rock Lizard Shell is said to have a strong heating power and is able to spread the steam around it moderately well.
Ever since he defeated the Rock Lizard, he has been thinking about making a steam bath for our house. Isn't it amazing? Ahem.
So we decided to cleanse ourselves there.
Since the storeroom was large, we partitioned it with a cloth and used half of it as a steam bath and half as a changing room.
Huh? Clothes?
Yes, I borrowed "Choukoukyou na Yuumigi" from my "big sister". I borrowed a copy of "Chokoukyuuuu na yumigi" that my "big sister" has.
But really, it's ...... really ...... I ...... brave enough to go to .......
............ No, it's nothing.
When I borrowed a bathing suit, my sister said, "It's worth it to hide it.
It is worth it to hide it.
And then my other friend said.
And the other friend said, "Do not be weary of your nursery rituals.
"Do not be weary of your disappointment.
You know...
We are both my seniors.
So I decided to listen to his words.
The master also said. I'm not sure what they mean when they say, "It's the quest ahead, so don't exhaust ...... your energy. Master, when you said those words, for some reason you looked to the side.
I was embarrassed because I was wearing a bathing suit.
When he turned his head to the side, I felt a little relieved, but strangely enough, I also wanted him to see me. It's a secret, isn't it?
Huh? Wouldn't it be out of place if I said it? He's here, too.
Soooo, yes. Shippy, is .......
Even in a real-life steam bath, you can get so much steam that your vision is blank: ......
After taking a steam bath, the master said, "I'm on duty in front of the Rock Lizard shell.
I'm on duty in front of the Rock Lizard's Shell, and I'm on duty to heat it up with the Flaming Arrow. When it has cooled down, my job is to warm it up with the Arrow of Fire.
I'm going to have to add more steam. I'll add more steam.
Wow, I'm not too hot. ......
When I sow water, the inside of the shed fills with steam.
I sit down next to my master, glad I can't see him, and then I sit down next to him.
The master's body is big.
His shoulders are wide and broad.
On the other side of my master, his beast ears and tail are swaying.
I'm not sure if it's because of the heat, or if it's because his body is wobbling, but his large chest is also wobbling.
My precious slave companion - the name. May I?
The saint keeps a secret: ...... I see. I understand, Rita.
Rita-san is my favorite person, she takes good care of me.
It's a good thing that you're able to get the best out of it.
It's a good thing that you're a good friend of mine.
I'm going to have to say that I'm a bit of a stranger. ......
After relaxing in the steam for a while, Rita said.
Wiggle your clean tail, open the curtains and go to the changing room.
There should be water over there to rehydrate you and a tarai filled with water to cool you down.
I'm worried about you, Rita-san, because you were wobbling around.
Snap.
'Wow.'
As I was thinking this, I heard the sound of splashing water coming from the changing room.
When I opened the curtain, I saw Rita bathing in the tarai.
The heat seemed to have turned her back into the wild.
'Wah wah wah. Gau-gau-gau────!
I'm in the tarai, posing like a puppy, shaking my body in a comfortable way.
This is not good.
The master looks a little troubled.
The steam bath is to cleanse the body. We must not play with it.
"Cecil.
Yes, sir. Master.
I need your help.
I understand.
We pull a wild Rita-san and return to the steam bath.
I've been sitting in front of you, with Rita-san's badly turned upside down, and master sitting behind me, flattening her white skin with a medicinal herb branch. ──── After a while, Rita-san...
──────────────────────
Wow, wow. ────────!
Rumble, rumble, rumble!
I was listening to Cecil's recollections when ...... Rita started rolling on the ground with her head in her hands.
At that time, Rita didn't like the sauna, but the heat made her go wild.
I'm not going to be able to get a good idea of what I'm talking about, but I'm going to be able to get a good idea of what I'm talking about.
No. Wow...! Gawgawgawgawgawgaw ────!
Rumble, rumble, rumble!
But Our Lady's "The Last Dispensation" is not over. It can't stop now.
Cecil's story isn't over yet...
──────────────────────
Then Rita-san felt 'happy' and was carried to her room by her sister and the cool elf.
The only people left in the room were me and my master.
A small room.
A strange space filled with steam.
I could still hear Rita's voice in my ears.
We sat a little apart, somewhat speechless.
'Master,'
Yeah. Cecil.
Can I come in, please?
Come on. Come on.
Holding the chest of my thin bathing suit, I sit down next to my master.
...... It feels good. Master's 'Sauna?'
Technically, it's just an arrangement of the usual stuff.
The master replies with the kind eyes I love to see.
''And it was Cecil and the others who heated up the 'Rock Lizard's Shell', right? I didn't make it on my own.
...... You're talking like that again.
It's not a good idea to make me any happier, master.
I'm going to become a bad boy, you know.
"Did I say, 'I'm happy to be my master's slave' today?
There's no rule that you have to say something every day.
No.
I shake my head.
I'm selfish. You have to realize that you belong to your master.
Otherwise, it would be unstoppable.
'Cecil is so serious.
"Even the master is 'happy'? Isn't it too much to ask for a "proper" way of working?
It's kind of a chronic condition I have.
Then it's a chronic condition I have, too.
I guess I can't help it then. ......
We're the same.
Okay.
Yes, sir.
Those simple words made me so happy.
It's sad that there is no magic to record every single word of the master's words.
That's why I...
──────────────────────
'What is it? Such "lobbing" in my absence? You've been doing that ────!
Now Reggie's pissed!
You're always asking me to be there when you make out!
No, because if you're around, you'll mix it up.
'Shut up! I demand a do-over. When you get back to the villa, make me an audience and start over from the beginning ────!
Don't be ridiculous!
I won't let you! Ugh!
Rumble, rumble, rumble: ────────────────!
Reggie began to roll with Rita.
'..................'
The saint has yet to say "end".
She's still floating in the air, looking at Cecil with her eyes wide open.
So Cecil's words continue.
Maybe until the end of the purification ceremony...
──────────────────────
In a steam bath, just the two of us.
Wow, I. I would like to cleanse my master's back.
After a while, I mustered up all my courage and said, "Of course my master's back is always beautiful!
Of course, master's back is always beautiful! It's spacious and warm, and sometimes when you give me a piggyback ride, I feel reassured that I am a part of my master ....... So! That's not what this is about: ......
The words are not coming out well.
The master on the other side of the steam is quietly listening to my words.
I must not make the master wait.
I have to tell him in shorter words. So I'll keep it short.
"I love you, master!
I couldn't help myself.
What am I saying? I am.
Master, you have been surrendered. He is holding his face with one hand. He is stupid. What can I do if he doesn't like me?
"No, no, no ...... no, no, no, no. No, no, no, but I did!
All right, just relax, Cecil.
The master grabs my hand as I tried to stand up unconsciously.
No, it stings.
You can't do that now.
The 'Chokoukoukyou na Yuumigi' that touches your skin is tingling and tingling.
You will cleanse my back. Please.
Then the master turns his back to me.
I pull myself together and grab the "Kiyome no Yakusou".
This is a soft branch with a leaf attached to it that has a cleansing effect.
When I lightly tap a person's body with this branch, it has a purifying effect.
Well, nice to meet you.
''Well, excuse me then: ...... Mr. Goshujin .......
I get on my knees and look at my master's back.
My body is a little wobbly, but it stagnates.
I can't help but feel my stomach growl.
If I were to accidentally fall down now, I would stick to the master's back.
I'm going to be able to be the one who has the most to lose.
I'm not going to be able to use my physical strength.
I'm not going to use my strength here.
I'm not going to be able to get the best out of it.
She's surprisingly sturdy. I feel like a man. He's broad, dependable and has my master's back.
You haven't even asked me what I thought of it.
I can't slap you on the back like that!
I just realized that.
There was a fatal flaw in this ritual.
''I'd rather die than hurt my master's back!
That's it!
That's enough!
'No, just a light smack,'
Now, let's see what you're doing.
After all, when your body is warmed up and your circulation improves, you can come up with good things to do.
All you have to do is show your master how to do it first.
Then, it will become our "normal" practice.
I want to learn how much strength is good for my body.
In the body.
Yes. In my body.
Then I look at my master.
Wow, my everything belongs to you, Nagi-sama!
Why do you get it here?
............ My, blah, blah, blah.
My face is hot. Even my ears are fuzzy.
I'm going to be the first to admit that I'm a bit of a jerk.
Then I undo the shoulder straps of the Chokoukyukyuuna-yuamigi and let it fall to my waist.
Her flushed back and thin body.
The master is looking at me, which is much smaller than Rita's, and he's looking at me.
I am embarrassed. My heart is about to jump out of my mouth just thinking about what my master is thinking.
Hmm. Na, Nagi-sama, ...... you can be a little stronger ......
...... I haven't tapped it yet.
...... haha.
You shouldn't. This is a preparation for work.
It's not the same as having your master "mess with my insides" - Huh? You were working there too, weren't you? It was fluffy, wasn't it? So now it's OK for me to fluff up? You will do it for your master... haha!
A branch of your master's herb strokes my neck. Swoosh.
It's just like master's fingers. They're fluffy.
"............ Goshujin-sama.
Yes.
I'm happy to oblige.
What is Arigato Gozamous ......!
I shouldn't do that. I shouldn't do this.
There is an invisible door inside me that is about to open.
My mind goes blank and I can't think about anything else.
The steam makes my vision go blank. My mind also becomes blank.
All I can hear is my master's voice and the sound of my own heart. Dok Dokkun.
When I was thinking about it, I felt my master's herbs under my armpit... ────
And I am ────
────────────────!
──────────────────────
Pusyu: "Pusyu ............
He was at his limit.
Cecil wobbled, steam coming out of his head.
I knew she was going to fall over, so I reached out and caught her tiny body.
I remember that time too.
I didn't realize that Cecil wasn't used to steaming, and I got all hot and bothered.
This is not good. This whole ordeal was to see if I was doing anything Cecil didn't like.
If you think I've caused her to lose her temper in a steam bath, there's a chance she won't pass.
............ I'm not jealous.
The next thing I knew, the saintly lady was biting her lip and trembling.
'I'm not ............ jealous! I'm not jealous of you! d*mn! What the hell! That's right! If you're living such a flirty life, your status doesn't matter! I would do anything for you! Moo! What the--! Moo! Moo Moo Moo!
The floating saint came down to the ground and slumped to the ground.
"What's the point? You are the adventurers of today! What the hell! Moo!
Rumble, rumble, rumble!
The saint began to roll on the ground, along with everyone else.
'Wow. Wow. ────!
Ugh! Let me show you my 'Labu-ome'!
'What the hell? Moo Moo Moo Moo!
It's just a thunderous sound.
Rumbling.
Rumble rumble rumble rumble.
The beastman girl, the demon sword incarnation, and the ghost of the saint continue to roll on the ground.
They won't stop.
Just like Rita said, ........................ we're in trouble.
''Fine! Take it! 'Holy Scepter Neuerut'!
After rolling as far as she could, the saintly lady said with a snap.
You have passed your "Saigo no shiren". It was a tough ordeal for Delilah too ......
Really?
No one would think you're unhappy if they saw that girl.
The Saintess murmured with a gentle smile, as if she had never seen it before.
''I mean, it's hard to look at the holy cane and remember your flirting stories, so I'd rather you take it with you.
I'm sorry.
'Good. It's been entertaining in many ways.
The Saintess held out her translucent hand towards the staff in the box.
As if led by her, Cecil reached for the Holy Wand Noel Root.
You'll need to handle it with care. It's not just a matter of time before you're ready to go.
The area of effect?
Yes. That's what you did to so many people at once, Delilah.
The Holy Scepter Neuerut
A wand that changes the scope of the magic
You can extend or shorten the area of effect of the spell you invoked.
However, the power of the spell itself does not change.
Isn't it convenient? But the strength of the magic itself doesn't change, so it doesn't make much sense to use it on low-level magic.
...... sorry.
Cecil looked lonely and depressed.
''I'm still only able to use level 3 magic,''
You've got a long way to go. You've got a long way to go. Maybe even longer than Delilira.
Then the saint looked at me.
You should take good care of your slaves, too. Otherwise, Delilah will come out of your body.
It's a real feeling when a ghost tells you: ......
'Don't get caught up in 'roles'. Watch out for nobles and kings.
Okay. Thanks.
Her body is almost ambiguous.
You're going back to sleep.
Can I ask you something?
I said.
'If you're a saint used by the king, I'd like to make sure you're aware of something.
"As far as I can tell,
'How is it that so many of the nobles in this country take advantage of people?'
Aristocrats may be like that.
But the way they do it is so bad or something.
Like the saint, she's too black.
Maybe. Maybe it's because you've done it before. Delilira-san is an example of that.
The saint answered back quietly.
The king and the nobles of the time brought the people together by making Miss Delilira a saint.
And now you've got the country on a tight leash.
Maybe I'm too wrapped up in that kind of success story.
The way it worked before, it works now?
Then I can't help it.
That's how you've succeeded. I don't care what the other guy says.
Well, Delilah is going to sleep for real. She'll probably dream about you guys. Come visit me again when you're ready...
I understand. Thank you, my saint.
Me, Cecil, Rita and Reggie all bowed to the saint's ghost.
I'm sorry that you cleared the labyrinth so easily. It was fun.
f*ck you. Go on, get out of here!
The saint was laughing and waving her hands.
As we left the room between the ruins, the door slowly closed, and finally...
........................... ...I'm sorry.
With a faint voice, the hint of the saint disappeared.
''........................... ...I'm sorry. There's just something I can't say until the end.
Saying that, Delilira closed the door.
''d*mn, ...... nobles try to use it even after people die, right?
As she sat on the walls of the decaying temple, Delilira thought back to the past.
Delilira, the girl who continued to save people as a saint.
That legend changed its shape and was somehow linked to the Legend of the Goddess.
Unbeknownst to Delilira, she had been associated with the Goddess of Mercy and had become an object of worship.
Delilira had been alive for only a few hundred years. Goddesses existed even longer ago. However, after Delilira's death, a cult of the goddess had apparently spread the story that saints were the incarnation of the goddess. In order to revive the belief in the goddess, which was on the verge of disappearing.
Nowadays, though, the only people who know about it are the leaders of the cult.
It seems that Delilira's existence has already been erased from the goddess beliefs.
'Well, you can't say that the saints of the ...... human supremacist cult were traveling with demons and ancient elves, can you?
That's why I've always regretted it.
I wondered if my existence was being used to destroy the demon race.
That's why I couldn't disappear. Because of the regret.
But it's a good thing. I'm just happy to have the wand back, you know.
Delilira slowly closes her eyes.
It's going to be one of the most pleasant dreams I've had in a long time.
Before going to sleep, he gives instructions to the golems. I'm going to follow the advice of that strange master and remodel the labyrinth as quickly as possible. I heard that a bunch of noblemen want to get there.
...... to help them reach the city of Aristia.
──── Delilira, though, she's not gone yet!
She chuckles with her eyes closed.
─ I'm worried about where those girls are going, and it's interesting to watch them.
I'm worried about what's going to happen to those kids, and it's fun to watch.
