Seiju no Kuni no Kinju Tsukai

Episode 78: Go to the Sheeras Baths

Time stopped for a while.

And

"... what?

Is that it?

Cecily's reaction......

It's the glitter that makes no difference, but it's obviously a tough reaction to say it feels good.

…………

"I think it feels so good..."

"Ho, ho...? You seem confident."

Mr. Cecily's temples reacted pickly.

The laughter isn't anywhere either.

How are you not convinced...?

Oh, well.

I was losing it.

Doesn't she know the fact that I'm getting massage - rubbing therapy moves?

"If it's a move, there are a few"

"... heh"

Is that it?

That face...... not trusted?

No way, Mr. Cecily... you have a word about rubbing therapy?

You have to be satisfied with your arm there?

…………

Hmm.

Then perhaps we should appeal to the fact that we are confident.

If you show some confidence, you might let me try it.

All right.

"I'll try to make you feel better. So just once... would you give me that chance?

…………

Mr. Cecily looks at me with a face.

And she closed her eyes gently.

"There's one thing I want to ask you. It's very important."

"Yes."

"Is that my exclusive story?

"No, I was going to tell everyone. You can't just treat Cecily like that."

"Hoon."

…………

Cold.

Mr. Cecily's expression was so cold that it seemed to freeze.

I feel like I can even see a blizzard phantom in the back......

I mean.

Oh - are you so obsessed with rub therapy?

After all, when I became a famous Arklite family, would I hire a famous rub therapist?

And it was the helpers who shaded Cecily Arklite's growth that rubbed the healer and all that......

I mean... heavy load on me?

Should we back off here...?

…………

No.

No, you can't.

If I pull here, it's the usual me.

Besides... it's so pathetic to draw conclusions without ever having you try.

Mia taught me that because of you.

If only you could try... you'd understand.

All right.

If I was a werewolf, I wouldn't tell you what I would tell you.

Breathe in to calm your mind.

…………

The blurring disappears from my heart as if the waves were pulling away.

I clapped my hands in front of my chest.

My heart is already at peace.

It is the frontier of the clear mirror water stop.

I confronted Mr. Cecily with a sincere expression.

"Don't worry... I got a clue from Mia."

"Mia? Oh, you sure were a maid of honor with a scholarly garden director. I heard you were in and out of your house... heh, did you do that while me and Currier were getting ready for Crohiko... heh"

"Yep. For you guys... and most importantly, for myself"

"Crohiko."

"Yes."

The jewels of the Renounced thread... were shining cold.

Oh, my God.

There is frost on the gem and the brilliance is dull......

The loose-armed Mr. Cecily releases him, as if he were a shooter.

... I don't know.

Why does one rub therapy get her this far?

I didn't... I didn't know anything.

"If you want..."

Mr. Cecily knocked his hips out.

"Well, it's not silly to be rubbed."

I felt just a little soothed in her expression - but soon that expression went back to freezing.

"But I declare to one woman, without any reason, that in the places where people come and go… and that it extends to acts against everyone… I cannot forbid disappointment at the heart of it"

"But, well, is that such a bad thing? I just want everyone to feel better."

"Whatever you think in your heart, I didn't think you were the man out of Taga that way. No, I still want to believe in you... but this is too -"

Now Mr. Cecily looks pathetic.

It's like even a mix of regrettable emotions.

At this time.

I understand.

…………

Did you have so much to think about rubbing treatment?

"Excuse me, Mr. Cecily"

This place looks like it should just be broken.

Apparently, it wasn't a good area to step in with aggressiveness.

"I, Mr. Cecily, massaged... I didn't know you were so devoted to rubbing therapy"

Mr. Cecily paused pitterly.

"... hmm?

I squeezed my fist hard enough to tremble and leaned down, and I meditated on my tight eyes.

"I thought I should at least try... I'm so embarrassed."

"... Krohiko? Huh?"

"So I apologize again. I'm so, so sorry! The rubbing treatment must be irreplaceable for Cecily - whoops!?

Suddenly I thought Mr. Cecily was packing the distance, and he grabbed my shoulders.

"Shh, Mr. Cecily...?

"Crohiko, I'm sorry"

With his head hanging, Mr. Cecily said.

"Huh?"

"All in all, I was the one who was wrong... or maybe I was the one whose heart was wrong..."

"... what is it?

"Keh, but it's also bad that you don't have enough words, right? Oh, if you say so...... I'm mistaken. Especially if they say that with a serious face on the day we stay out together."

"Huh? Huh?

I was in trouble and asked for help.

And, Senior Ray caught my eye when he was somewhat desperately laughing (flailing with faces like Mr. Ira doesn't know what's going on next door).

I noticed my gaze. Senior Ray moved his hands with some eagle.

Hmm?

Rub?

Next, Senior Ray shows his chest with his fingers.

…………

Huh?

Rub your chest...?

What are you talking about all of a sudden? That guy...

Someone totally crazy about rubbing Mr. Cecily's chest in here or something like that.

Ah.

Something in me fitted in nicely.

I see.

Is that what you mean?

That makes me angry.

You don't have to be Mr. Cecily, that makes me angry.

"Excuse me, Mr. Cecily. Sure, I was speechless..."

"No, let's flush it down to water because it was an unfortunate mistake right now - can we flush it down? I knew I was worse."

Mr. Cecily, who raised his face and let go of his body, had his usual grin back.

and she gently lifted her own chest with her hands.

"What do you mean instead of apologizing... are you really rubbing it?

"... at its heart, you can't forbid disappointment."

"Mmm... don't you say, Crohiko"

Mr. Cecily pointing his mouth in disgruntlement.

That's the face of being hit.

I gave him a nigga laugh.

"Now let's make it a charade."

"Ha... I kind of miss Crohiko when we met"

"Is that a compliment now?

"... oh, you're a disgusting person ~"

"Haha, surprisingly I can say this because so far it's about Mr. Cecily"

Now turn around, Mr. Cecily with a satisfying grin.

"Uh, by the way, can I ask you something? Earlier Arr...... why did you first speak to me?

"I thought I'd let Mr. Cecily rub it first and ask you what you think. I think I can hear your exact thoughts... and in a way, Cecily is an easy person to talk to."

"Pfft, that's right, that's right, I'm glad you said it."

Stick together, and you'll gladly follow my breasts, Mr. Cecily.

What a pleasant appearance.

But what the hell is this dizzying emotional change?

And that's where Senior Ray and Ira's conversation popped into my ear.

"It's hard to get in between."

"... you know, Ray"

"What?

"If it was the size of your chest, you'd beat Cecily, wouldn't you?

"... yeah, well in terms of size. Yeah... Ira?

"Boy, I knew you'd be interested in breasts... I wasn't sure, but that's what the conversation between the two of us is about now, right? Then should I appeal to my chest, too, Atashi?

"Yeah, it's different."

"Huh? No?

"You're clearly second-rate in trying to control love just because of your color. Your colour is only an added value. You know what I mean, Ira?

"I don't know."

"... well anyway, don't think I don't look like that to Ira. And you said Crohiko, too. Ira's charm is hard working and simple."

"Oh, well... yeah, okay. Atashi, try your best to be simple."

"Not good, things are happening over here that miss people from the past...... is that it? This kid...... was he such an asshole?

"Hmm? What are you doing?

"Oh, yeah, it's nothing. Talk about this one. Well, don't worry about it. I'll lead you to Ira."

"Hmmm...... and a boy, he likes girls' breasts. I wonder what's good about this? That's kind of cute."

There was an exchange, for example.

... Surprisingly, Senior Ray, I'm starting to feel like someone who can't be insulted.

What, that?

I realize.

"Mr. Currier, where have you been?

When I was vain with Mr. Cecily, there was no sign of Mr. Currier.

Apparently, Mr. Cecily also noticed that he didn't see Mr. Currier.

"Is that it? You don't have a currier"

"If you're Currier, I've been there since earlier."

It was Mr. Banton who said so and showed the dim alley by hand.

Ah.

I see a figure in the shadow of a wooden barrel in an alley, crouched and round somehow.

Mr. Cecily sighed.

"What the hell are you doing in a place like that, you..."

With a face like a mother bringing her own strange daughter back, Mr. Cecily walks over with Tsukatsuka.

The shadows tremble.

"I commend you for not escaping... but you're barely hidden, are you?

"Wow, I'm out again!

"... is it haunting or something, I am"

Mr. Cecily even lowered his forehead when he didn't say he had a headache.

"I don't think you're the same person who said, 'I can kill everyone on this scene with a sword rolling there'..."

Mr. Currier, taken by Mr. Cecily, was reluctantly pushed into the carriage with his face.

Until Sheeras Baths, we rescheduled to go with one Horn family carriage (we were supposed to split up into two carriages on schedule, but we ran out of people for one).

Mr. Cecily thanked Mr. Banton before closing the door when he finished transferring his luggage to the Horn family carriage.

And when Mr. Banton greeted each other with the Horn family lord, our carriage set in motion.

The seats in the carriage were determined by the likes of this world's nonsense.

Or it was almost grand.

Apparently, the shape of the hand imitating the beast that appears in the myth has become a relationship like goo, choki, and par.

So, to my right, Mr. Currier, and to my left, Mr. Ira.

Mr. Cecily and Senior Ray face to face.

…………

But I think.

I'm glad to be brilliant and happy with both hands... but I'm glad your seats are appropriate?

Besides, the mysterious penalty that somehow I'm the only one who can't give you the right to participate.

I was in my current seat, not knowing what I had done.

Well.

Sieg and Mr. Hilgis, who are not here, can't help but arrive at night on errands.

Yes, it is.

Only the two of us came out of the carriage, so I was wondering what happened to the other two (although I'm not too surprised by Mr. Currier's twin-tail transformation, and the Sieg and Mr. Hilgis thing had blown out of my mind along the way).

Well, I was relieved that we could rendezvous at night.

What do you care about being alone in a hot spring-like establishment because I almost feel like it...

Right.

Because of this, I'll find an opportunity to give Sieg a rub treatment as well.

Furthermore, in the carriage, the other thing that I was concerned about was to be resolved lightly.

Starting with Mr. Currier's apology, the truth of the shock was told to me.

What a surprise the cause of my recent strange attitude was when I was preparing my dress for today.

It seems that Mr. Currier had such an attitude in order not to be taken into account about it.

Or Currier said he couldn't get past me as well as Cecily did, and as a result he took a cold attitude.

I received an apology from them after being revealed how it was so.

but instead of making me feel bad...... what filled me was a relief.

That's right.

My fear was nothing but fear.

…………

Not so long ago he managed to say something like 'teach me the secret to being girly'......

Now that I think about it, I may have already begun to prepare for their surprise since then.

But then...

Is that it?

So what happens to my determination to be aggressive?

I wasn't shunned by them.

The lily world is also a product of illusion.

Now that it's revealed...... do we need to put Mr. Makina's teachings into practice?

What the hell have I been... fighting with?

…………

No.

No, it's not.

Mr. Makina's teaching is not wrong.

Valid.

It's still active.

That's right.

Until now, my lack of aggressiveness is a fact that never happens.

Although the cause of Ms Currier's attitude has been found, this is simply one matter of concern that has crumbled.

Then... you can't break your offensive posture here.

I haven't finished anything yet.

While the determination was renewed that way, the carriage arrived at the Searus Baths.

Sheeras Baths is located in the northeastern district of Wangdu.

It is also relatively close to the Holy Tree and the Great Sacred Wall.

The southeastern neighborhood, where many nobles live, is a neighborhood just opposite each other across the Holy Tree and Renouncered Castle.

The Northeast District is with districts that remain particularly natural among the Wang capital (speaking of which, I was under the impression that the left side of the Holy Tree was green even when I looked over from the school before).

Sheeras Baths was further behind the high ground at the end of a long, winding ramp in that district.

An atmosphere that can be called in the mountains.

Blah blah blah, it made me feel like a hot spring in Japan.

With the carriage in place, we dive through the gates that are entangled.

The stone laid path leads to the back.

On both sides of the road were forests of blue trees.

A unique, blue smell mixed with the earthy smell snorted.

Through the road, I went out into an open space.

and wooden buildings represent themselves.

From what I can see, the Inn's setting also feels more Japanese than...

Why not?

Yes, Mr. Ira told me that I was wondering.

"What's wrong, Crohiko?

"I kind of have a different impression than the other King's Capital buildings," I thought.

"Oh, well. Crohiko's never been in a Sheeras bath before, is he? Ho ho... So let me explain something to you."

Other members stop their legs too.

"This Searus Baths is the only Baths that incorporate Eastern culture in this King's Capital."

"What is Eastern culture... I mean, is the culture of the country that you often hear about Eastern countries?

"Exactly!

I got my finger pounded.

"Well, in a nutshell, huh? Baths made for nobility by the Duke of Ferraris, a nobleman of the Eastern cultural hobby… that's the Sheeras Baths you see."

Ira showing the building by hand like a guide.

"This uniquely colored bath has become a reputation among the nobles. This is a bathing area that always competes for popularity in the Wang Dynasty. Oh, and by the way, the Horns are a little financially cooperative when we build them."

Heh, Ira appealed modestly.

"What's more, your daughter from the Duke of Ferraris is the president of our Wind Discipline Society."

Senior Ray said he was taken.

Unexpectedly, the president of the Wind Discipline Club is connected...

"I hear you named this Baths" Searus Baths "because you used the example of a place called" Shigeru "in the East."

Mr. Cecily then presents his subtle bean knowledge.

Hmm.

I've been predicting that the East is a country with a Japanese-like culture for a long time... but coming here is turning that prediction into certainty.

Speaking of which, mythologically speaking, I also think I heard that the Eastern Country - in mythology, was the Gao Zhenno Country - was the country that the Curse King ruled.

Eastern country......

I'd like to go once I get the chance.

Then we walked into the inn.

Japanese-style appearance was also seen everywhere.

Or it really feels like living in a hot spring in Japan.

Atmospherically, I imagined it was like a healthy land where you could stay, but it's mostly a calm atmosphere inn because of the aristocracy.

I wonder what it is.

I feel a little nostalgic.

At the receptionist counter, Ira begins to interact with each other.

This is a moderate exchange of words like a social dictionary with Dear Isla of the Horn family, and others who seem to have come out hand-in-hand.

They said you were an asshole kid earlier, but you're still competent, Mr. Ira.

If it was the previous world, maybe I'd feel like I'd be entrusted with a drinking executive or something.

... Well, I've never been to a drinking party in the first place, so it's just an image.

And while we wait for the proceedings to end.

Several customers were crossing this space, but most of their gaze had been sucked in by Mr. Currier and Mr. Cecily.

…………

Yeah.

I have no choice in this.

Those two just attract people's eyes.

However, Mr. Cecily was the wind I'm used to because he's been directed at me from time to time... but Mr. Currier looks uncomfortable.

And when I normally tried to get out of the front door of Tokotoko and the inn, Mr. Cecily grabbed me by the root and took me back.

Something was silent and jittery.

Mr. Currier......

Mr. Ira returns after completing the process after a while.

I had luggage in my hand.

You think Ira and Senior Ray's luggage was delivered to the inn first?

I thought I had slightly less baggage, but I see, was that what happened?

"Yes, this is the key to Krohiko's room."

Ira hands me the keys to the room.

There's no such thing as a card key.

I hear there are two rooms I took.

In other words, the men's room and the women's room.

"Well... let me leave my stuff in my room first"

"Right."

"So if I put my stuff down, do you mind if I say we meet up here again? Then have lunch."

"Okay."

Me, Sieg's room and their room were in a remote position.

Sheeras Baths is a popular inn, so we couldn't get a room next to each other.

Well, it doesn't have to be neighbors...

"Oh, is it here?

Check the crest and number of the room.

Yeah.

Definitely.

Right here.

Unlock it and go inside.

"... excuse me ~ su"

Oh?

Is this... could it be a tatami?

Heh, there are tatami tatami tatami in this world too...

But there's a bed on the tatami... Well, even in Japanese houses, the beds seem to be normal.

Let's not worry about the details.

There is also a slight sense of harmony from room conditioning and window framing.

The view from the window is full of trees and lacks amusement, but a luxurious room overlooking the King's capital will be all I have.

Above all, it must be a calm space freed from the hustle and bustle.

I think I'll get some sleep at night.

Put your baggage away.

Hmm.

The size of this room means you have to move the table to give a massage.

Well... is there a problem on the bed?

…………

Yeah.

What if I bring someone in to think about it?

"Hey, it's time to go..."

When I locked up and then went back to the lobby, the girls were already here.

Everyone has their baggage.

Are we going to go soak up hot water as soon as lunch is over?

"Oh, you're here."

"Sorry, it's late"

"Yeah, I'm fine. How was the room better than that? Doesn't that sound like a problem?

"Yeah, it's just that. I mean, I even missed it."

"Oh, well. Is Crohiko from the East?

"Uh, erm... yes"

"I forgot about that, Atashi, because I'm so familiar with it."

Ha ha, and laughing Ira.

"So, it's lunch, right?

Mr. Ira turned to everyone again.

"There's a courtyard in the center of the building that's liberated by guests, and you can bring in meals to eat there. There's a place in the inn where you can eat too... and I've actually been making potatoes and baked sweets."

Ira modestly put up a peachy sauce.

"Chu, I don't know if it's for lunch, all the time..."

Then Mr. Currier and Mr. Cecily looked at each other.

"Uh, well, we've been cooking lunch for two, too."

Mr. Cecily lifted the basket at hand.

"For once, we have a minute for everyone. Broiled meat with spices on sandbread, salad, etc. If it tastes, I think I can guarantee it."

"Oh, I brought some tea that looks good after dinner. Of course, for all."

Senior Ray continues.

This...

A legendary event that a man would once admire, often found in a love comedy or something: "Heroin has made lunch for everyone and I can't eat it."

…………

Hmm?

Is that it?

Wait, wait, wait.

Seems like a labour-intensive lunch for Mr. Cecily & Mr. Curier.

Baked confectionery that can also accommodate Isla's dessert position.

Tea that performs a straight time after Senior Ray's meal.

Is that it?

The flow to the end of the meal is clean.

All the women looked at each other in unison.

Apparently they didn't show it to each other.

…………

In a way, can this be said to be compatible with unscrupulous breath?

That's not why anyone left what they brought... Connected, we finished lunch soothingly.
