“My grandparents were using this room until I entered highschool so it’s still quite cluttered but feel free to use it. As for a change of clothes….. the size might not be quite right but the ones in the drawer are clean”

The place I was led to next was uncle’s room that I played in many times as a kid.

In the centre of the 12 tatami mat japanese style room was a low wooden table above which a nostalgic chess board lay.1

On the side of the table, a brand new futon was layed out.

“You did this?”

“Mom’s a bit inattentive with these things so I thought this would happen”

“Thanks”

“Hehe, do you need anything else? apart from my-bo-dy that is”

Maya-chan put her hand on her hip and twisted her body.

The slender body that was tempered through basketball made her well endowed chest stand out.

With the way they swayed around, plus her scent after a bath and still slightly wet hair, even as a joke that gesture had a sense of guilty pleasure.

“I’ll take you up on your offer then. Could you lend me your textbooks. Later is fine”

“Is that so”

Somewhat disappointed, she lowered her shoulders,

“But what do you plan to do with textbooks?”

She titled her head cutely.

The way her attitude and expression changed was like a small animal.

“It’s been a while since I was in Japan so I want to understand the situation”

“Ones on society?”

“If possible all subjects”

The changes in culture and science and technology in this country, or the advancement of mathematics. Textbooks are valuable books which contain that knowledge.

“OK! Then I’ll add the recent newspaper as well. It’ll be quite bulky though so help me out”

“Thanks, if you leave the textbooks in the hallway I’ll deal with the rest. I’ll put them back where they belong by tomorrow morning”

“In the living room there’s a container with old newspapers you can read. Also If you want, feel free to use the bath. If you go now you can have a taste of a JK’s remaining bath water, and its the golden time for the a lucky pervert event like accidentally running into my mother, so I would be quick”

Translators Notes:

1: Tatami mats are a type of traditional japanese flooring about twice as long as they are wide. The exact measurements differ depending on region.

2: Joshikousei(highschool girl)

3: A Shintai is an object of worship in which spirits or gods reside.

Inari is a japanese god of foxes amongst other things.

Shikigami are like familiars used in Onmyoudou.

I might’ve missed some notes at the end there but honestly most people here reading japanese webnovels probably already know these things and if not I’m sure you guys can use google.
