"Oh, Slade, are you awake?

"Ugh..."

When I woke up, I heard voices.

Turning to the voice, I can see Faraes' face and chest.

Speaking of which, Faraes had me knee-pillow and I was asleep.

I don't know how long I've been asleep, but Faraes' knees would be getting tired.

I think so, and I retreat from Faraes' lap and sit next to it.

"Thanks, thanks to you I slept well. Are you tired?

"Oh, it hasn't been that long."

That's what Faraes answered when I spoke out worried.

I know you might be concerned, but for now, let's just say I'll take it as the word goes.

"Ugh..."

"Oh, are you awake...?

When me and Faraes are talking, I hear Celia.

Celia had a knee pillow for Cleta, but it looks like she woke up.

"Ah, Mr. Cretta..."

"Mr. Celia, you can take your time."

Celia woke up and withdrew from Cretta's knee.

I guess you thought the same thing about me.

"Thank you. Are you all right, sir?

Celia still worries about Cretta as much as I do.

We're like similiar brothers.

"Yes, it was very light, wasn't it?

"Really, then, I'm glad..."

Cretta, too, doesn't seem tired, makes Celia smile.

Celia shouldn't be lying about this either, because it does seem mild.

"Well, it's time for me to get ready for dinner. Enjoy yourselves later."

So, that's what Cletta says and leaves.

I guess I headed to the kitchen to make dinner.

Always, thankfully.

"... Speaking of which, how are you both, tired?

That's what Faraes asked us right after Cretta left.

Remember, I slept to relieve the fatigue of my mission. Faraes must have worried me about it.

In the meantime, I'll see how my body feels.

Body fatigue and so on seems to be on the rise and well tired.

He wasn't conscious, but he got pretty tired.

"Oh, it's getting a lot easier"

"Yes! I'm perfectly fine now!

Following me, Celia said the same thing. Apparently, Celia was able to recover, too.

"Oh well, then, good. Did you lend us our knees?

Faraes laughs when he hears our words.

That's a relief grin.

"Yes! Mr. Cretta's knee pillow, it felt so good! The master felt good too, didn't he?!?

"Huh? Yeah."

So Celia asks me that.

It was sudden, so I immediately affirmed it.

Faraes' knees felt good, of course, but are you glad to say that?

"Right...... then, was it good?

To my words, Faraes blushes.

He seemed happy with no heart, so it seemed okay to say it.

"It was soft and warm, kind of, reassuring. Isn't that right? Master?"

When I was relieved, Celia started digging into the contents. I feel a little more embarrassed about the content than I did earlier.

"... oh yeah"

It's just that everything you're saying was true, so I affirmed it.

From what I saw earlier, I thought it was okay to say it.

"Ya, soft and... warm and..."

After I affirmed, Faraes was squeaking like that with his face even redder.

Maybe he stepped too far in. I guess it's embarrassing for a boulder to tell you what it feels like.

"It smelled good, and I really relaxed!

But Celia doesn't realize it and releases more words.

"Smells good..."

In Celia's words, Faraes' face becomes even more red.

He was self-contained without asking me, but from the flow, Faraes seemed to interpret it as a word hung on him. Of course, that's true.

"Is that it, Captain Faraes? Are you all right, sir?

"Oh, oh... I'm fine"

Celia, too, seemed to have noticed how Faraes was doing on the boulder and was worried.

"Um... are you okay?

"S, Slade......"

When I speak, Faraes will see this face.

Then his face becomes even more red.

Apparently, you shouldn't make me too aware right now.

◇ ◇ ◇

"Everyone, dinner is ready."

As we spent some time in the living room, Cretta called.

Looks like dinner's ready.

"Thank you, Cretta. Well, let's go."

From what happened earlier, on the signal of Faraes, who managed to calm down, we move to the dining room.

When we got to the dining room, we sat down in our seats, and this is the beginning of dinner.

"Well, I'll have it"

"I'll have it."

"I'll have it!

"Yes, go ahead. And I'll take it."

Everyone hands together and carries the dish to their mouths.

"That's good..."

"Yes, this flavor is the best after all..."

Cretta's cuisine is, as always, excellent.

Even at Mr. Orfina's, I got the dish, but this flavour is still the best.

"Really? I'm glad you said that."

The words of me and Celia lit up Cretta.

"Oh, yeah... I need to ask Celia something"

"Huh? To me? What is it?

So slap your hand as Faraes remembered.

Something tells me Celia needs a favor.

"Actually... today, I wanted to take a bath with Celia"

"Ah, lady..."

Faraes' favor seems to be to bathe with him.

The moment the word was released, Cretta was laughing a little bit, for some reason.

"Is it a bath? Yes, if it's okay with me, I'll be with you."

"Well, thank you"

Celia acknowledges it with pleasure.

By the way, the bath in this house is so spacious that it doesn't matter about the two of us.

"Hehe, lady, you went in with me yesterday, didn't you? Say I miss you..."

"Oh, can I have Cretta with me?

"Huh? What am I, too?

"Can't you?

"No, well, fine..."

As Cretta tried to talk about yesterday's struggles, Faraes made further suggestions.

Apparently, the three of us are in the bath today.

Of course, the three of us are fine because of the large bath.

"Ah..."

"Hmm?"

So Faraes' eyes turn this way.

"Maybe Slade wants to come in with me?

"Huh?"

And I said something outrageous out of that mouth.

To many questions, I unwittingly solidify.

Will that be allowed, such as going in with me?

"Hehe, are you kidding me?

"What...?

Apparently, it was a joke. No, it was something I would know if I thought about it a little bit.

A little, unfortunately.

"Mr. Slade... did you want to see us naked so badly?

"Oh, no..."

You're trying to figure out what's inside me, and Cleta's asking me that.

There's no way I can answer that.

"Master...?

Celia also looks at this one as she blushes.

I wonder why I'm being so humiliated.

"S, Slade, I'm sorry... I was just kidding..."

"... well, naturally you want to see it, so you can't help it... I'm past the joke too..."

"Master...... sorry"

By the sound of Pharaoh, I managed to put this place away.

Pharaoh is kind because he helps us.

Thus, this story ended, and the meal went on. There was a lot going on, but it was definitely a fun meal.

By the way, unfortunately, I got to take a bath alone.
