And the festival began.
I like festivals. [M] Luke and Liz love fun things too. Citrine doesn't hate that either, and Anthem is a good brother and prioritizes her sisters, so we've always been used to making noise.
And Lucia scolds you.
It used to be a little event, but as a result of the increased money and power available, it had now turned into a corresponding massive object. Treasure hunters are a lot of people looking for instant fun, but I've never seen anything happening on a larger scale than our party.
The only entrance that existed was closed with dirt walls, and the spacious space was filled with dark steam. Tons of dishes, alcohol and the smell of hot springs put on a nearby table mix to shape a chaotic space.
It's dirt down there, but it's perfectly solidified as if it were ceramic, and the water doesn't stain, and the soles of your feet don't get dirty.
"Whoa, whoa, it's a hot spring. Ahhhhhhhh! Klee, a dragon for me too!
Luke growls out loud that seems to annoy your neighborhood and jumps into the hot springs. A big splash came up and was about to hang on the cook, but he was bounced on an invisible wall. It is Lucia's nice assist.
Seeing it, Liz pointed her lips, unbanded without hesitation, and then dropped her yukata. It glows and glows in the bright light of often burnt skin in the sun.
... apparently he wasn't wearing underwear. He is a grand stripper who doesn't care too much about his gaze. He was shy in the Garest Mountains, but now he's not ashamed.
The treasure is released, the legs always hidden are slurrily stretched and just slightly colorful. It is accented by the good feeling of origin leading to heaven in the form of waiting hanging on the ankle.
"sloppy! I was gonna be the first to come in. No!
"Hey, sister!? Oh, no, no, no!
Conversely, Tino turns his face bright red and eats Liz and hangs it. To a healthy apprentice, Liz caught an eyebrow and yelled.
"Ugh, tee! Now, I don't have any trouble being seen! He's not the kind of guy who gets in trouble for seeing his skin! If you don't want to go in the hot springs, you do what you want!?
"No..."
"Liz."
"!! Yes!
Makes Tino smile all the time as if heavenly help had come.
I said to Liz, with a strange look and no less than Luke hiding nothing, hitting a soft sponge.
"You have to wash your body before you go in."
"Yes! That's Klee, let's talk!
"Yes!?
Tino gives a screaming voice to Liz, who makes her eyes shine. But Liz is right, unfortunately it is now.
Me and Liz have a long relationship, and most importantly, Liz is not shy.
I didn't do it this time, but in fact, she's a lady who comes flat into male water, without a mixed bath or anything to do with it. Of course you don't come in when you don't want to, but you don't hesitate when you do. And throw other disturbing guests out of the bath with their bragging speed.
She's always dressed pretty exposed, and it's not the first time she's been in a hot spring with me, well, to put it simply, she's completely naked... a little used to it. As long as they don't stick together, it's okay.
And although she is not of a nature to hesitate to skimp because she is naked, she had no problem at all because Lucia would magically repel her when Lucia was around. They even hang visual filters.
Lucia sighs deeply, too, but does nothing more. Tino seems shocked by the culture gap, but it was already woven at the time he prepared the hot springs.
"Today... that's rude. Eat and drink without worrying."
"Tee, of course............... because you don't have to take it off"
"You can wrap a towel around it, or you can wear a swimsuit. You can keep your clothes on."
I don't wear swimsuits, I don't wrap my towels around them. There are about two people who don't look at me, but I don't need to worry about them at all. They are like wild beasts. Tino doesn't have to worry about it at all.
"Look! Klee! I'm fine in the big swirl! It's the fruit of training! It'll be a workout for your ankles!
Luke shouts confidently as he stands and swims in the great vortex.
I had so much fun watching it that I couldn't care less about everything and it was getting hot with steam that I unbuttoned my clothes.
Just take off your upper body for now. Remove the treasure ring in turn, leaving only one junction finger. When I have company, I can take off most of the treasure I always wear when I'm asleep.
"Ma, I will!? Yes... Do you want to take it off?
What the hell... I don't care. Nobody cares enough to undress a little.
Mostly, even Tino broke down the wall and came in man water...... but it doesn't steam back.
When Lucia, with her yukata on, squeals her fingers, the glass brings the liquor to hand at will. It's a rare, sweet drink that I can drink.
Thank you, narrow your eyes and hoist the glass.
"It's not good for you to take a bath right after you drink alcohol."
"............... why did you make me prepare it"
I didn't make them ready. Liz and the others brought it on their own. We, the Ghost of Mourning (Strange Grief), are made in such a proper way.
Well, that's rude today. No need to say anything unnecessary.
I put my mouth on the glass and swallowed the liquor Lucia had cooled me down.
Tino swallows his sawdust and says as he decides.
"I'm going to... I'm going to... get dressed."
"... yeah yeah, right"
Take the towel where Tino was stacked on a small run, take off his shoes and go up to the sitting area. I narrowed my eyes and watched the young tamers shake in a calm mood.
§
"Rush, uh, torrents! There's no torrents! I can't train with this!
"Rusha, sauna! It's a sauna.
"Shut up! Uh, already, shut up! Don't even know how many parallels I use magic..."
One of the giant liquor barrels rises, bouncing and flying directly over the noisy Luke and Liz. The golden ale takes two people hard and spreads stronger alcohol than ever around. Still, it's great not to get mixed up in the dishes and hot springs.
Liz slowly scratched her wet hair on the booze and screamed.
"What are you doing, it's terrible!
"Is this... a drunken sword? Drunken sword training, huh?
My skin was soaking wet with alcohol. I tell my brother and sister, who are flat even in alcohol, to take off their yukata and let Tino, who is wrapped in a towel around his body, be afraid.
"Yes... what if this isn't a guy named Sake Ikegami?
What does it mean to use it?
"Well, why don't we just eat some food?
"I'm not comfortable in this outfit, I am."
Tino looked down at his outfit and shook his shoulder when he blurted. Tino had his whole body hidden in a long towel. It is tightly wrapped and secured against falling off. It doesn't change much in terms of exposure because I always dress like I'm out of my shoulders, but its white skin is dyed red because of the steam. I think I have a much narrower shoulder.
"Good job, brother. Did you bring it back with you?
".................. um. I left it in Imperial City."
A short distance away, a towel-wrapped citrie, like Tino, was washing the back of an anthem with a mop with soap on it and her hips down. It seems as if it is cleaning a wide wall, but it is the one that flushes the back.
It looks like Citrine is having a lot of fun with the sneering. It is my brother's idea. Because my back is too big, I rubbed it without even using it to the stepping stone.
Anthem's back was huge as a rock and his muscles were bulging. The countless ancient wounds that remained on the surface were a testament to always being at the forefront and being subjected to countless attacks all by themselves.
Anthem is an important part of the party's defense, and at the same time is a healer (healer) of The Mourning Ghost. His healing magic is powerful enough for the country's greats to come to his request, but healing magic is the only thing that can be ineffective to the surgeon himself.
I don't seem to hurt or anything, but looking at that back is about as much as I think I've never had one scratch because of them.
Raise your hips and go near the anthem with a floating wheel.
"Good day, Anthem. Long time no see. I'll flush your back too."
"Uhm."
"Is that okay? Oh, then I'll flush Mr. Klee's back off instead! Isn't that nice, brother?
"... um"
What is the substitute? I don't know, but I borrow a mop from Citrie and rub it on Anthem's back.
I am not very helpful in exploring, but I am proud to say that my skills in cleaning walls are people-friendly. My developed and raised back was very difficult to wash, but I rubbed it with my back. Heavy labor, but if you get tired, you just have to put it in the hot springs.
I don't usually work, so this kind of thing can be just a little fun.
Moving the mop, Tino, who followed me like a Cargamo, tells me it's a bad idea.
"Yes... let me do it, too. Anthem, brother, okay?
"... um"
I've known him for a long time now, but he's still an oligarchy man. But the voice seemed somewhere happy to be admired by so many of his companions.
I just baton-touched Tino, and Luke and Liz, who noticed this one, come running in line with their eyes open, and the mop takes care of it.
"Oh, that's sloppy! Training? Training!? Let me do it, too!
"Huh? It's Tee's turn next, which means it's my turn. Huh! Luke should be drinking!? Here, I'll give it to you! This, too, is training!
Liz yells depressingly at Luke as he tries to push his nearly drunk jock against Luke.
"Ah!? There's no such thing as drinking training! You're making fun of me!
"Huh!? You can hear Klee and you can't hear me?!
"That's right, Lizzy! Your words don't have faith!
It's not even in my words... I think it's probably lower than Liz's if you say it with the content of your beliefs.
It was the usual sight. We're close enough to fight.
Two people peeling and cursing each other behind a sitting anthem.
Elsewhere, Citrie says sneer. But it seems a little more tense than usual.
"Mr. Klee, let it go. Than that...... back, I'll flush it for you. I've never been able to flush it."
"!! Sister Citrie, you're too close -"
And when he tried to push his chest against my back, his body flew.
I cling from my head to the hot spring with a cone rub and give it a fierce splash.
Tino, who was suddenly raising her attention to her blown sister, is flashing. I said with Lucia's sitting eyes with the jock in one hand.
"Citrie, out. Not at all, because this is it as soon as you get off guard"
"Lucia, sister... now... attack magic"
"Thanks to you, my magical prowess stays up! Do you know how much trouble I have when people ask me how to train magic around me?!?
By the way, Lucia is stronger than I am, but only a little less vulnerable to alcohol, so when I consume just the same amount of alcohol as Liz and the others, I get drunk and immediately unconscious back and forth. Apparently, taking magic restorative medicine (Mana Potion) makes me particularly nauseous.
But my sister can use magic normally even if she is drunk. Awesome. Strong.
Tino is frightened by Lucia as she glances at her munchkin boned meat with her cheeks all over her mouth.
"Yes! Yes! Now, if I take it... it's dead."
"Haha, I'm fine, because I'm being modest"
Besides, if you don't do something far-fetched, you won't get shot. I've never been shot before because I'm careful. [M]
A citrie thrust into the hot spring puts her hands on the hot tub shaking and wakes up her body. The towel is blowing up somewhere, and the skin that has been dyed is heavily exposed.
"Huh... already! I tried so hard. Huh! I can't believe there's not a single reward - largely, why do you need Lucia's permission to flush Mr. Klee's back!?
Lucia put her arms together and stood up before the complaining citrie. The voltage is a lot higher.
"If you want to stick around so much, why don't you even be a towel? I don't know if I can go back."
"Huh!?
"Yes! 'Citrie, be a towel' heh!
"Yikes!!
"Become a towel! Become a towel! Oh, no more, such magic, nah!
Citrie changes her blood phase and swims through the hot springs to escape. Lucia wipes out the bones she devours, takes off her yukata and jumps into the hot spring. The clouds that were putting out the waterfall are lightning down.
Tino was even black-and-white in the frenzy of your sisters.
"Si...... Citrie, I've never heard your sister scream before. And Lucia, your sister..."
Lucia and Citrine, we're very close.
"Anthem, is that enough?
"... um"
An anthem that doesn't move into anything flushes his body, ignoring Luke and Liz, who are still working on the mop, and sinks slowly into the hot springs. Hot water overflowing from a huge tub passes at your feet.
When I held on to the floating wheel, I jumped into the hot spring afterwards.
§
The floating wheel is used and floats puffy. Tino wraps a string around the floating wheel, tying its tip to the pillars of the seating area. I don't know if it makes sense.
I felt so good looking up at the moon floating in the sky and rocking as I listened to the bustle of my people.
Next to me relaxing, Tino squeaks as she sinks into the hot water to her mouth.
"I... have never been so busy"
Luke and Liz are racing to swim in the hot springs. Citrie and Lucia seem to compare drinks as they soak up the hot springs.
Anthem closes his eyes and soaks himself still in hot water in the deepest places. I don't know what you're thinking, but it looks satisfying.
Vacation, though, has been a lot of things.
It was scattered in my eyes, but when I remembered it after it was over... I also think it was a good memory.
I also caused Tino a scathing inconvenience, but at least I hope he enjoys this vacation a little.
Hunters are a dangerous operation. But it's not much fun. My talent was empty, so I gave up on following along, but if I were a child full of talent like Tino, I'm sure it would be more fun.
"Tino, the vacation... did you enjoy it?
"Huh!?
Tino rounds his eyes at the unintentional question and silences him for a while.
Various colors pass in those innocent eyes. Maybe he's remembering what happened on this vacation.
Waiting without saying anything, Tino eventually turned her cheeks just a little red and sank them in hot water to the nostrils and nodded small.
Apparently, he had some good memories.
Good. Good. It's all good if it's over. We'll buy Eva and the others some souvenirs and brag about it.
Apparently the Empire was a lot harder, but they're the ones who invited him but didn't follow him on vacation. What about hot spring dragon buns for souvenirs?
When we get into the hot springs, we're gonna go out and have another drink. And do the fireworks and go back into the hot springs. Liz and the others will be somewhat calm at that time.
Damn, Tino hit me all of a sudden thinking about such fun things.
My body shakes wide and Tino's smooth legs tangle in my legs.
Unexpectedly lose words. If it was Liz, I wouldn't be surprised, but Tino is the type who turns his TPO around discreetly.
But I'm not ashamed of Tino's expression. Either you look incredible about the situation you're in.
"... what?
"Huh... Huh? Oh, no! Oh, my body's flowing on its own."
So I noticed that there was a big stream going on in the hot spring.
A large vortex can be found in the center of the spacious hot tub, where the hot water is sucked in. Did you even leave a hole open? Great momentum.
Luke, who notices an anomaly, shines his eyes and tries to defy the flow of hot water by standing and swimming, but is quickly swallowed. Liz disappears with her eyes open as Luke grabbed her arm to be flushed.
Lucia and Citrie are about to be swirled and Lucia's magic manages to stay on the spot.
"Ah..."
The legs that were tangled away leave. Tino speaks up low, sucking into the vortex and disappearing.
The song of hot water instantly diminished and the bottom of the hot tub was visible.
At the center of the vortex was a large hole about a meter. It was definitely before I put the water up.
The only thing left was me and Lucia and Citrie, anthems that didn't get flushed because of their size, which I couldn't stand with a floating wheel.
It makes a hard noise, takes several fingertips on the edge of the hole, with some recognisable black hook claws.
Lucia said to me as if she had fought.
"See you again, Leader"
"Didn't we all do fireworks, Mr. Klee?!?
You look at me like you blame even Citrine, but is this my fault?
"Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!
When Lucia magically destroys the edge of the hole and peels off her hook nails, she jumps into the hole herself.
An anthem stands up that is very hard to get into the hole as it is, ringing loud footsteps and going to pick up the treasure tool's full body armor.
I blinked my eyes like Citrie was in trouble.
"Would you like to bury this? If Lucia's here, I'll be back anyway..."
