Time in Sulphur passed just like flying.
The vacation is still good. I feel like my mind and body are washed. The rice is delicious and the hot springs feel good. Because of the Hot Springs Dragon, the innkeeper was only able to see it with respect, but he's asked me to put aside a lot of things and I just don't care.
It's even fun to regret having wasted another day remembering the end of the day, the days that have passed.
The bathroom was destroyed, so there's only an open-air bath with a room, but that lets you in slowly without worrying about the surroundings. I was a little wary, but after the first day, the dragon never came out.
The only shame is that Luke and the others couldn't come with us.
Even though it's been a long time since I've been away from the party, I've been with them most of the time when I was traveling. Maybe they'll complain when we get back to Imperial Capital.
Well, that's just another time we should go together. I'll brag about it when I get home.
I had heard from Citrie in advance that the hot springs here would also be used for Yuji, but the healing effect was certain.
I don't have any old wounds, but I feel like I can stay in as long as I want. [M] The water was slightly hot, but if you put on a ring of heat-resistant treasure tools, that would be fine too.
Slowly soaking up the hot springs again today, I was nagging while only getting my upper body out, and as usual I could hear Liz and Tino arguing.
Liz doesn't weigh herself. My daughter tries to enter the hot springs with me without any care, even when I enter the hot springs behind the mountains at a party. He's a kid who's trying to get in even though he says he can't. She thinks I'm childhood friendly before I'm a man. [M]
By the way, it's a bit of a downside story, but hedges for men and women are often thin at hunter's parties. Sometimes the gear breaks, so there's nothing we can do about each other being naked. But I don't think it's any different not to show one shame.
I'm actually a man, and I'm not interested in anything other than swords, like Luke, so I'm curious about what I care about.
It's eye poison to be able to show off your skin even if you're used to skinning, and it's more poisonous to be held as it is. Usually Lucia uses magic to keep me away from good things, but this time I have no natural enemies, so I am full of energy. At the time I went for Hot Springs, I generally had predictions, but the desire for Hot Springs prevailed.
Tino screams and the door to the room opens without interruption.
"Oh, oh, oh, run, please! I mean, I did, I took too many baths!
"Cry, hey! Um, hey, alcohol, I brought it, you want a drink with me?
I answered Liz's floating voice with a drowsiness and a great absence.
"... I can't help it, Liz. Wash your body properly before you come in."
§
Take Tino and Liz in yukata and stroll around town with flowers on both hands.
Apparently, the emergence of the Hot Springs Dragon shocked the town, and we made that crusade by treating it like celebrities.
It must have stood out because there were originally almost zero tourists.
Hot spring dragons seem pretty low among dragons, but still dragons are dragons. It is a phantom beast beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Defeating it is inevitable in some ways (of course, I'm not entitled to it for not doing anything), but Tino has a slightly stiff expression as to whether he's not used to these scenes.
"You just have to be nicotine at times like this. All you have to do is set up. It fits right in."
"Yes. Yes..."
Walk around town eating the hot spring dragon buns I just got while I was walking. It was just a hot spring town, and there was a relaxing air of my choice all over town.
Apart from the inn you are staying in, there are several bathing areas throughout town. The spring quality won't change, but you may want to come in and try some.
It's also fresh that Tino and Liz dress differently than usual.
Less exposed than usual, but the yukata looks great in some of its slim shape. Because of the steam, the skin was also slightly redder than usual, with an indescribable colour.
With that said, Citrie said, the matching of the yukata is in front of her right because she can rub her chest with her right hand in her nostalgia.
Don't be an obvious liar, here. There can't be such nasty clothes.
Near the outer perimeter, Citrie took several men in fine clothes to work in the business.
I say, grinning in my yukata, pointing to a low outer wall that only goes to my stomach.
"Safety is more important in landscape and safety. The kingdom keeps spiritual beings away, but it does not keep humans away. What do you say, why don't you buy the latest golem? I can put up a bit of a price, but of course I can use the battle for civil work. It would be cheap given labor costs. You're lucky you were bathing in level eight hunters, never again, are you? Mr. Klee seems to have liked this town, too, because it's still in exam period - half price now, weapons on set, billions of geels for thirty, plus tax!
It's always hidden in the robe, but the style of the citrie is pretty good compared to the Liz and the others. She's also a little tall, but her breasts are incomparable.
The great ladies of town are whispering and discussing, even as they are gazed at by the gloss of the citrie. A billion geels would be pretty heavy on a town this size.
In the first place, can you beat a dragon in the golem?
Why are you doing business when you're here on vacation? I don't know anything.
"Sister Citrine... I can't get out of this."
"Sito is top notch when it comes to making weaknesses..."
Both Tino and Liz look stunned.
Too free. Well, Liz climbed the mountain to find a hot spring dragon on the first day too Liz......
When Citrine looked at me, she ran over with a smile on her face, not even during the business talks. I get my gaze off my front right collar.
"... you're going to be fine."
"If the Hot Springs Dragon were any more, it would be ruined... and then I could check the performance of the new weapon, and I thought it was two birds a stone."
Death merchant, I presume?
But surely Citrie's right, this town seems too defenseless. I know it's temporary, but it's only a problem for me right now.
But a billion is expensive nonetheless. At least it wouldn't be the kind of amount that could be instantly executed. How much is the cost......
The great man in town gives up a little too. You can't instantly execute a golem that doesn't even see performance.
I got a little lost, but I checked with Citrine.
"Citrie...... wouldn't it be a little cheaper?
"Huh............... how much shall I give you?
Citrine turns her eyes round and looks at me.
How much do you want me to spend, new... you're not going to put it to my word?
I'm not an alchemist, and I don't know the value of a golem. I also know I shouldn't be speaking out if I were supposed to.
"... for the safety of the town. Right... not to pay cash, but to pay with goods..."
"Is it an article? The specialty of this town is about a hot spring......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
"Later, even if I were to sell it, I think you'd better look at the actual golem and convince me..."
"Right..............."
Citrie becomes the imaginary face. I'm not telling you to just do it, and even if I did, I wouldn't.
She respects my opinions as much as she can, but she never speaks.
Citrine smiled and struck her hand as to whether the thought had come together after a while.
Get close to the people in town you were discussing with a serious look and give them a bright voice.
"I've decided. If you have a problem - lend us your golem completely free of charge, only during our stay! Courtesy of Mr. Klee. It's no longer too much trouble for a hot spring dragon to show up during a vacation… it's not too late to see the power to buy it"
§
Finish the business negotiations close to half the volunteers, collect the citrie, and walk the town with the four of us.
I didn't take Golem and them, but apparently I'm going to manufacture them here. Citrie is a worker.
"............... are you glad?
"Yes, Mr. Klee's... because..."
On several occasions, Citrie nods without hesitation.
I'm an amateur, but this business meeting clearly looked like Citrie was losing money. In the first place, the town of Sulphur is peaceful. The only discomfort I have is the lack of tourists so I'm a little free.
Wouldn't an outside enemy come and go during our stay, and we wouldn't be able to sell the golem after all?
I mean, not for me, not for the people in town?
But Citrine doesn't answer my question, she only packs a half step from here.
There is a sweet fragrance coming from the hair.
Does it smell like shampoo? I've never put it in my mouth, but it smells so good that I might accidentally want to get my face close. It makes my head feel a little rough.
So Liz came in between Citrie and me, grinning.
"Klee, don't let the blatant score earner fool you! He's definitely going to lend me what I'm doing today when I have to!
"I won't do that... Sister, I doubt you too much! Hey, Mr. Klee?
"Yeah, yeah, right."
............... you've been made normal. With that said, I lent you money, like, why don't you come visit me in my room next time?
Well, I'm the one who made the loan, and that's why I end up stepping down.
Wah-wah. Bite the peace, watching the arguing smart sisters.
Both Tino and the heartbreak he sustained in the Battle of the Hot Springs Dragon seem to have healed and restored a little energy.
Later, he only buys time at all by entering the hot springs until the end of the 'White Sword Gathering'. There's a lot going on, but if it's over, it's all good.
You might want to take Liz and Citrie for a while and free Tino, who has been pinched by your two sisters and in scattered eyes.
When I was relaxing about that, I saw a big carriage in my sight.
It's a haunted carriage, pulled by a slender horse.
Is it a new tourist? As I stare, the door opens and the dude with the earthy face comes down.
I couldn't help but notice. [M]
He changed too much to know for a moment, but for sure.
It was - Arnold Hale - who came out of the carriage.
Level 7 hunter with two names: Hao Thunder Blasting Flash. He's the man who's been after me for some reason.
I have bandages wrapped around my body, my hair is blurred, and my cheeks are thin, but there is no way I can missee the man who has been a troublemaker here lately. Then comes down with the familiar Arnold companions and the Gilberto boys.
The atmosphere was different. Some people are changing gear. He didn't seem seriously injured, but his footsteps seemed flimsy and full of creativity.
This is how I realize Arnold and the others, but Arnold and the others don't realize me. If it's in the usual condition, I can't have noticed it first. [M]
You're a stalker? But a stalker can't just show up like this, and it looks like he just survived a wreck. I know because I've been shipwrecked in the desert.
... My God, it's a vacation. Does God hate me?
Tino is circling his eyes. Liz's eyes confirm Arnold and a grin floats in his mouth. This pattern is bad.
We should leave this place before they notice. I guess the other guy isn't around, he's not seeing around.
Hold Liz's hand tightly and back off.
As if it were going to be different from that, Citrie came forward.
There was no time to stop. Knock your hands at Arnold as if he were welcome.
I wasn't surprised by the look on Citrie's face. There is a full smile on my face as if I had been reading this development.
"This is... Welcome to Sulphur. It was pretty late, wasn't it, Mr. Arnold? I'm tired of waiting. It's too late, so the dragon is over by Tee..."
"... ugh!?
No way, Citrie...... were you reading this development? How did you control Arnold's behavior?
I don't understand it at all, but if you were reading it, I wanted you to tell me. I changed my destination to another hot spring......
Arnold's eyes turn toward Citrine, then he captures me and opens up to the limit.
And the giant wobbled about, and Arnold fainted on the spot without raising a word.
