When I tried to enter Alfheim's famous hot spring, Shirazaki escaped.

I'm not sure why, but let's just get him.

"Go!

"Grr!?"

I slipped a flying kick on Shirazaki's back and let him slip.

From Shirazaki's mouth, which breaks the balance and hits his face with a bitter turn on the ground, he hears like a frog crying.

Something's happened before.

Shirazaki suddenly escaped, so I caught him.

"Hey, why did you run away"

I asked Shirazaki, who covered his face with his hands in pain, remembering something similar had happened once.

"So, because... suddenly you put your hand on my shoulder and invite me to the hot springs!

"? So, what is it?"

As always, he's the one who can't really read what he's thinking.

I can't decipher it unless you explain it in more detail.

"You, they say Harlem Yarrow or something, and you were interested in men too!

"... Hey, I'm gonna hit you, Temei"

In my current statement, I somehow found out what this guy was thinking.

Shirazaki is scared as she looks at me.

Something's so frustrating.

"I'm normal. I have nothing to do with inviting you to the spa."

"Really? You don't think my body's the purpose?

"I knew I could hit you?

Communicating with this guy is too difficult......

If the difficulty in dealing with the ice chamber is hard, this guy is berry hard.

"... Damn. Well, no, look, stand up, Shirazaki. I'm not gonna do anything weird, so let's go to the hot springs."

The girls were girls, and they had started moving towards the hot springs.

Shirazaki said something stupid, so he was left out.

"But taking a bath with people is a bit expensive for me..."

"Shame on you!?"

This guy, now you're an only child!?

No, well, I'm an only child too, but I'm too embarrassed to be seen naked by people or something!

"... ha... if you and I are resistant to entering the hot spring, let us in alone. I'm leaving now."

"Ah..."

I gave up Shirazaki's persuasion and walked to the hot springs by myself.

Something tired in vain......

Let's get into the hot springs quickly and take our time......

"Phew... Ahhh... Extremely easy..."

Immersed myself on my shoulder in a hot spring in the woods, I looked up into the evening sky and exhaled heavily.

The hot springs that haven't been in in a long time are exceptional.

I knew if I came to Alfheim, I'd be here first.

Even if they say it's a specialty of this country, there's just something to snort at.

"... at all, Shirazaki guy... because I wanted to talk about the beauty of this hot spring."

I was counting the number of stars I started to see in the evening sky, and I was thinking back to my earlier interactions with Shirazaki.

If you can't take a bath without me, say so from the start.

If I'd known that from the start, I wouldn't have even asked Shirazaki out.

"Ahhh... stop thinking..."

In the meantime, let's not think about anything now, just focus on getting tired.

The rest period is one week.

In a week, I can take my condition to its best.

In that case, I don't know if I'm a fisherman, but I'm with Don...

……

Second, I turned my eyes to the hot spring water.

Then, from the water in front of me, I noticed that there was poking and bubbling.

What is this?

"... thats it!

!?

Suddenly, a child of the Beast clan jumped out of the hot tub.

I feel surprised by it, but I didn't feel hostile to the child, so I slowly lose my shoulder strength.

"Eh heh, how's it going? You must be surprised!

A child who looked less than 10 years old smiled and spoke to me.

All of a sudden he comes out... what the hell is this kid?

It just seems like you wanted to surprise me.

By the way, the gender seems to be a man.

I have a lovely elephant in my groin.

Well, it's male water here, naturally.

…………

Even so... Nah, looks familiar...

Brown skin, chemo ears and tails like I've seen somewhere, plus this smile that looks like it could weather.

Oh, my God, don't feel the deja vu.

"You... what's your name? Is that the kid who lives here?

For a moment, I thought I'd find out who the boy was that suddenly appeared.

This is man water, so it's a good place for boys to come in.

But this is Alfheim, the land of the Spirit.

It's not like a place with beast children.

"My name is Garcia! I just got summoned by the Spirit King to come here!

"... what? To the Spirit King?

What do you mean you were summoned by the Spirit King?

I have no idea.

I don't even know the name Garcia, and the mystery just goes deeper.

"More than that, brother! Play with me!

"Ugh!?"

Garcia jumped into my chest thinking about it.

You're a tame child.

Even when it comes to playing, you know what you can do in the bathroom.

"Me, dive in the hot water again, so your brother can get me!

"Oh, hey, hey."

Soon after I spoke, Garcia dived into the hot spring.

"... I can't help it"

Let's ask the Spirit King about the details later.

Now, for now, do you want me to hang out with the children's play?

……………………

... I have no idea where Garcia is because it is cloudy water.

You're pretty good at hiding.

I thought so, but for a moment now, I got pocky bubbles.

Maybe, like earlier, my breath leaked while I was diving.

"Here! I found it!

"Yikes! They found me!

Reaching where the bubbles came from, I tied Garcia up.

Guidance, you got caught easy.

Are you saying that it was a child's hideout?

But I guess Garcia had a lot of fun because she's laughing at the cackle.

That's all right, then.

"............ hmm?

And there I was, something uncomfortable.

Garcia's on my lap now that she's caught.

But I don't feel anything strange when it's supposed to hit me near my knee.

I tried to lift Garcia.

……………………

"Hey, Chi O, where did you do this?"

"Huh? Chi-o-chan?

An elephant had disappeared from Garcia's groin.

What kind of magic is this?

Feminized magic?

Huh?

Garcia, have you become a girl?

"Garcia. You were a boy, weren't you?

"I'm a woman. Yo! Besides, I'm not Garcia, Gardina!

... I have no idea.

This girl is a girl, not Garcia, Gardina?

Hey, really, what's going on?

"Haha! Brother, we got caught! We won!

I heard voices coming from behind me in confusion.

Turning around...... there was Garcia with the elephant.

There are two Garcias.

No, to be precise, is there a boy named Garcia and a girl named Gardina?

Is this... I mean, a common reasoning novel or something, a twin replacement...

Too many melons, I couldn't tell at all.

"Are you twins or something?

"Yeah! That's right. Yo!

"It looks pretty much the same, so I'm often mistaken -!

"I knew it..."

Now you're the other person in the red. Whatever you said, I just didn't believe you.

Even so, I knew you looked something like someone...

And Gardina to Garcia...?

... Let me ask you something.

"Hey, what kind of a man is your mother?

"My mom's name is Gardia Sphinsys!

"He's such a great man, surrogate for the Beast King!

"Ooh......"

It was bingo.

My expectations of what I might have held were entirely true.

Garcia and Gardina seemed to be... Gardia's children.

"Was it the children of Gardia..."

Ten years have passed since I broke up with him and it's Earth's timeline.

Then he's also in his 20s now.

No wonder you're old enough to have one or two children.

But it's a little surprising that Gardia had more of a child than anyone else.

Makes me realize the difference in time progression from us.

"... Is Gardia doing well?

While I remember and miss the old days, I asked the Garcias how Gardia was doing.

"Isn't that quicker to ask Maman himself?

"I'll be right there, won't I?

"To?"

Garcia and Gardina pointed behind me.

So I look back.

"Hisashibu! Dear Sir!

!?

Then all of a sudden, my face was wrapped in something soft.

... There is only one guy in this world who calls me your husband.

No way... the bearer of this feeling...

"but... gardia... is it...?

"Yeah! That's right! I'm Gardia Sphincis!

Thus I was reunited with Gardia, a beast girl who once traveled with Meermill Continent.

Gardia was... becoming the beauty of Munchkin Bine Bine.
