Winter has deepened and the cold has become more severe.

I want to take a bath asexually during this season.

I would like to warm up well in the large hot tub and feel refreshed.

There is no big business to be done in the capital, but it is a good opportunity to take the next Howling vegetable.

The farmer reported that winter vegetables had been harvested, and we decided to take them to Emilio.

When I was ready, I went around the farmhouse in the village of Howlin to collect winter vegetables and transferred them to Emilio's office.

"Emilio! I brought you some vegetables from Howlin 'Village."

“Oh, thanks. I just got a request from the restaurant, so I was hoping to get some good ingredients.”

Emilio laughed happily as he pulled out a bunch of wooden boxes from the subspace and said that he was checking the documents on the sofa.

I wasn't specifically asked, but I was asked to bring the recommended Howling vegetables seasonally. I thought you might ask me for winter too.

When the lid is opened, it contains winter vegetables such as cabbage, turnip and radish.

"In winter, there are few varieties of vegetables growing, but the ones I brought with me are also very delicious."

Especially recommended are winter cabbage, radish and turnip.

The sweetness of each one is different and it is delicious enough to think it is fruit. There is nothing wrong with eating it raw.

When I gave Emilio notes from the farmer about the recommended cooking method, he put it in his pocket with satisfaction.

“Thank you. I'm going to take it to the restaurant, but will Crete come? The chef will cook you a delicious meal with Howlin 'vegetables.”

"I'm interested, but I'll do it again." I want to do something before that. "

"Can I help you?"

"I want to take a bath in the mansion"

The chef's cuisine with Howlin 'vegetables is also interesting, but nowadays the appetite for a bath is better than the appetite.

"Crete really likes the bath." Even when I was doing business all over the place, it was like every day. "

With all due respect, Emilio said that he was a little stunned.

From the point of view of me who lived in Japan, it's normal, but from the point of view of the people in this world, I seem to like the bath as much as weird.

Royalty, aristocrats, and some affluent people have baths in their homes, but it is common for others to go to the mass baths.

Japanese values like having a bath in every home will clearly look heterogeneous.

That said, I have no choice but to explain everything. It's not like I like bathing.

That's why I'm asking you to do it again.

Okay, I'll ask you again.

After completing my errands, I will quickly be transferred to the Mansion.

"Well, it's a bath. It's a bath."

The time is still in the middle of the day, but it must be great to take a relaxing bath in the light.

After I transferred to the private room, I rang the bell and told him I was back.

Soon, the door was knocked on and Arche, the maid, arrived.

I'd like to take a bath now, but can I ask you to get ready?

“As usual, I understand. Please wait a moment."

Instead, it came out like, "Huh!? It was a bewildering word.

It was somehow a frightening voice from the ladies, but for now, I decided to ignore it.

What's the matter with you? I just want to use the mansion's bathroom, but is that such a bad thing?

Maybe one of the servants used it?

"No, that's not it..."

I guessed that Archetti was worried, but that wasn't the case.

Then why are you looking so embarrassed?

"Ah, um, can I call Elsa?"

Yeah, I don't mind.

As I nodded, Archette left the room.

I'm not sure, but something seems to be wrong.

Strangely waiting, Archer brought Elsa back.

As usual, Elsa greeted her lightly and cut out a clear tone.

"I'm sorry, Master Crete." It's hard to use the mansion bath immediately. ”

"What? Why is that?"

"Currently, the magic tools installed in the bathhouse are not working and there is no hot water." The magician will come tomorrow at noon, and the restoration will be after that..... "

I-I see.

If it was yesterday or tomorrow, the Lord would have put it in without any problems, but it returned just at the wrong time. From Archetti and Elsa's point of view, I wonder why they came back at such a fair time. I can only say that it is a bad time.

"If you want, we'll have it ready for you right away." However, it will take some time. "

How do you do that when the magic tool is broken?

“Lalasha uses water magic and Archetti uses fire magic, so I'll have her fill the hot tub with hot water.”

"Oh, I can do that!"

I forgot that Larasha and Arche were both noblemen's daughters. They have more magic power than civilians, so they can use that kind of magic.

I'm so excited about the fantasy hot water method.

"Unfortunately, they don't have a lot of magic power, so I can't fill them up in the bathtub, but I'll let you drink the magic power recovery potions and make them to die."

Archette's face turned pale as she waited behind the terrible hot tub.

I tried to push myself to the limit of my magic power before, but my body was so full of lethargy, nausea, and intoxication that I was struggling.

I could only say that it was the work of the demon to use more magic with the Magic Power Recovery Potion while pushing me into such a situation.

No, I'm sorry you two had to do that!

I hesitated, and Archetti's face was as if he had been saved.

With the hot water that Archetti and Lalasha put up with the desire to die, my heart is not so big as to relax. I'm sorry for the simplicity.

Well then, do you want to call the wizard, though the roots are stretched?

In terms of a realistic solution, Elsa's proposed wizard should be called.

However, when I summoned a wizard who could fill the hot tub with hot water on the same day, it was quite expensive.

I don't have any trouble with the money, but I don't want to do much because I don't have a sense of waste.

Or maybe a public bath.

There are various large and small public baths in the capital, so you can head there.

But of course there are a lot of people out there, and I wonder if I'll get the ideal amount of time I want.

"--No, then I'd like to think about hot springs."

I see. With the magic of Lord Crete, you can easily travel to faraway hot springs.

Elsa nodded in admiration, though she had an abrupt idea.

If it is a hot spring, even if there are a few guests, it will not be noisy like a mass bath.

At the same time, you can relax while enjoying delicious food and sightseeing.

Which hot spring are you going to?

"I'm thinking of going to the Eustelia, the capital of hot water"

While doing the work that Emilio swung at me, I also marked these blind tourist destinations with transitions.

“I've only been there once when I was a kid. I recommend it because it's a very trendy neighborhood with lots of hot springs.”

"Wow, hot springs"

When Elsa told me the story, the restrained Archetti muttered unexpectedly.

“Archette, you should be careful with that kind of whispering.”

I-I 'm sorry!

Elsa blamed it, and Archetti bowed his head in a hurry.

As a maid, it may indeed have been an unworthy voice of the heart, but if the Lord goes to the hot spring in such a cold period and talks about it, it may be that the envy of the voice will leak out.

How about Archetti and the others come to the hot springs?

"Huh! Are you sure?!"

Archer asks with a very happy face. Elsa was staring at Giroli from the side, but in front of the magic power of the hot spring, she was able to withstand the gaze of her boss.

“It doesn't matter, we can go alone, but we can go together, but the effort doesn't change much.”

Thank you!

Alchette nodded and exclaimed happily.

"How about Elsa? Of course, if you don't want to go, I can say no..."

"It's a very pleasant invitation, but to take a break from working as a maid and go to the hot spring..."

Archette, who had reached the height of her joy, was like, "What's your boss saying?"

When you see an unreasonable boss in the company, your subordinates' faces come to mind.

If her boss, Elsa, disagrees, it's likely to be blank, so Archetti won't mind.

From the gap behind the door, Larasha and Lurua looked at us with serious gazes.

From the look of their faces, it seems that they are eager to go to the hot spring.

"Isn't it nice once in a while? If you just work every day, your mind and body will be broken."

"No, we've had enough rest." I wonder if taking more time off from work is worth the salary. ”

I tried softly, but I didn't give up on serious Elsa.

Seems to have pride as a maid.

"Well, why don't you come along as part of the job?" I'm new to Eustelia and I need someone to show me around. ”

I really don't mean to do that, I just want you to enjoy the hot spring purely, but I'm sure she'll have to follow me if she's serious.

Of course, if you really don't like it, I won't force you, but I don't think so as far as I can see her face.

"... yes, it is my duty as a maid to assist the Lord in his outings." If it's work, I won't go. ”

Elsa laughed as if she had noticed the awkward construction I had prepared.

That's how we decided to head for Eustelia, the capital of hot water.
