Shun and Archet are on their way to the stall while dropping their shoulders.
Meanwhile, we pay the watchtower with copper to enter the East House.
We're the only ones in the footbath because a guest just went out to make a mistake with us. Almost rented out.
I'm sorry for Archetti, but let's go first.
Just the foot bath?
"Master Creto...?"
“I'm sorry, I didn't ask.”
I was going to say something good for myself, but it didn't seem like it.
Elsa turned her gaze to below freezing. It is cold for some reason when I am next to the footbath.
Take off your shoes and socks and pull up your pants so that you can recover.
Under the cold sky, it was cold to stay barefoot, so I quickly put my foot in the hot water.
"Ah, it's warm."
The whole foot is wrapped in warm water.
I'm not warming my body, but just warming my feet feels pretty good.
"Are you okay? It's not hot ~?"
It's steaming, but it's not that hot, right?
"Oh, it's true ~"
Larasha and Lurua seemed to be checking the temperature by gently touching the water with their hands.
I explained earlier that hot water is flowing in the hot springs, so I was a little worried.
When the temperature of the hot water is known, Lalasha and Lulua take off their shoes and socks.
It's not that I'm looking at something indecent, but I'm also unfaithful to look at it, so I decided to turn away from it.
"Oh, I forgot to put on my tights."
Me too.
There is a simple dressing room, so you can take it off there.
Elsa, who had also taken off her tights, came to Larasha and Lurua, who were leaking a troubled voice.
The pure white duffle coat was stripped, and the pure white bare feet were exposed.
Following Elsa's advice, Lalasha and Lurua move in the dressing room.
Elsa sat down next to me and put her foot in the hot water.
The ripples spread, and the white feet in good shape are swallowed up in the hot water.
"... what is it?"
"I thought you were dusty."
Well, that's all I need to add to the hot water.
Perhaps you're embarrassed by the strong expressions that came out of your mouth because you're aware that you're the type that doesn't have a lot of facial expressions.
She can do anything, but she doesn't feel human when she sees it.
When the two of them were dusty, Lalasha and Lurua came out of the dressing room.
They both exposed their bare feet and said, "Cold, cold!" I came and sank my legs. "
"Huh..."
Lalasha and Lurua breathed out.
I guess it's because I've been educated as a lady that I haven't forgotten the elegance of putting my feet together in a hurry. That was the young lady.
The two of them had dusty faces and smiled.
I wonder if I have such a loose face.
"I bought you some Eustelia milk."
"Thank you."
When we were totally relaxed, Arche brought us some milk in a jar.
I'm thirsty. I drink quickly.
Oh, it's rich!
What's great is the concentration of milk. It's a freshness you can't taste in the capital.
While mellow, it has a good taste to drink.
Cold milk is very pleasant on the body that has warmed up from the inside.
It also tasted different from Angelica's sheep's milk.
"If you think it was bought by someone else, it would be extra delicious ~"
"Gulp, gulp, gulp"
Archette is sipping milk with pleasure and regret.
"... I miss it, it's the same taste I drank in the past."
Elsa looked nostalgic while staring at the bottle.
It must reminds me of the old days when it came.
How old were you when you first came here?
“My grandfather brought me here when I was just seven years old.”
Huh, so grandpa liked the bath, too?
Yes, I liked the bath as much as Crete-sama did.
Elsa said with a bitter smile.
You're as fond of baths as I am Japanese. I don't know what Elsa's grandfather was like, but I felt like I could get along with him once I got acquainted.
While listening to Elsa's old story, Archetti finally entered the footbath.
”Ahh... it feels so good”
"Archette, you look like an uncle ~?"
"Huh? Shit!? That was so dull!?"
Lalasha laughed, and Archet sat back in a panic.
I thought I was a little old-fashioned, too, but I decided to keep quiet because if I told you, it could seriously hurt my heart.
The hot water carried from the hot spring is constantly flowing into the footbath. There is absolutely no way that the hot water will cool down because of that or under the cold sky.
It stays warm all the time. Very comfortable.
It is warmed by hot water, and I feel that the circulation of blood in my body is getting better.
Even though it's exposed to the outside air, I don't feel any wonder or cold. It was pimpling from the inside of my body and it was hot. It must be due to the foot bath.
Elsa-san's feet are very beautiful.
"... is that so?"
It's true. Do you care about your diet?
"Even if I eat more vegetables and fruits, there are other special things..."
"Well, I haven't eaten much vegetables lately."
Lurua, Elsa, Larasha, and Arche are gently laughing.
Maybe they're outside the Mansion, but the four of them have a broken tone somewhere.
Behave in a way that is appropriate for the year unlike the usual work atmosphere. That's a little fresh.
Maybe I'm having this conversation when I'm not in the Mansion.
I am the master and man, it is difficult to mix, but it is fun to feel lively just listening to the conversation
It's my favorite.
The main thing this time is the hot spring, but when you soak in the hot tub, the men and women will separate, and I will be alone.
Just by soaking in the footbath, I felt like I was in the hot spring with everyone.
●
As we enjoyed the footbath, we walked around the hot spring town guided by Elsa.
You can browse traditional crafts or take in the scenery from the observation deck, and time quickly passes.
When I breathed out, something cold hit my skin.
Looking up at the sky, white grains were pouring down.
"Oh, it's snow."
Elsa and the others stopped and looked up at the sky.
This is the first snow in the otherworld.
The sight of pure white grains of snow quietly falling is very beautiful.
Well, it's time to head to the hot springs.
Got it.
It doesn't seem like it will accumulate immediately from the momentum of the snow, but I want to head to the hot spring before it gets colder and colder.
There are a lot of hot springs, but is there a recommended place?
There are many source springs here, and there are hot springs where hot water is drawn everywhere.
There are about five hot springs in sight just by looking around lightly. As a novice at Eustelia, I don't know which hot spring to use.
If there is an internet, I can search and see the atmosphere of the hot tub, and enter the place I like.
“It doesn't matter where I went before, but when I was tired, I was in a compromise place, and my grandfather recommended it to me in a different place.”
"Where is it?"
"It is a hot spring at the top of the Eustelia. The hot tub is huge, and the view is amazing.”
Elsa pointed to the top of the mountain. From where we are, we need to go further down the slope and climb thousands of stairs.
Elsa's grandfather, isn't it too hard to take a seven-year-old with you? Well, Elsa's tired and goes down.
"Well, that's exactly what I'm climbing up there..."
"I don't think I can go."
It's already late, why don't you go to the nearby hot spring?
The Archets pull back their faces on a steep journey.
But don't you want to go because you've come this far?
Elsa is also an old Revenge, and I think she went there for a bit.
After seeing the steep road, the spiritual strength without despair is amazing.
Crete-sama, what do you say?
Elsa turned a pale gaze.
I felt that there was some expectation in those eyes that was different than usual.
Meanwhile, Arche, Lurua, and Larasha turned their attention to begging.
Please, don't just go to the top. It seemed like I could hear the voice in my heart.
Alright, let's go to the top of the hot spring.
"" What!? ""
However, I will use metastasis to move it.
Additionally, the three screaming faces were relieved.
After all, if you want to taste it, you should try the best hot spring. If the journey is hard, you can relax in my spatial magic.
That's why when you touch my body like you did when you came from the Mansion, you gaze towards the top.
As expected, I couldn't see the top perfectly when I looked up from below. But I can still see the resting place.
"I'm going to do a few metastases."
Confirm that there is no one at the destination, and call out to everyone to transfer.
From where we were, we came to a far higher resting place.
But the destination is far ahead.
Find the next point of metastasis in the same way, and metastasize again.
Then I repeated the short-range transfer about five times, and I saw the end of the long staircase.
At the end of the cobblestone road, something like a small ryokan was built.
There is a sign that says "Yust" in the secret bath.
Is it a hot spring that I recommend?
“There's no doubt about it. That's what my grandfather used to call" Yust "."
It seems like this is definitely the recommended hot spring.
As she stepped forward, a female employee came out from the inside and turned on the magic stone lamp.
A warm light lit up in the dimly lit sight.
When the lit employee notices us, he smiles softly.
"Welcome. You've been here a lot in the cold." It must have been hard to get here. Please take your time to warm up in our hot springs. "
Thank you very much.
I am not very tired because I came with the transfer, but I will not say anything extra.
After lightly dropping the snow on his shoulder, the employee guided him inside the inn.
The ryokan was a wooden building, reminiscent of a Japanese house somewhere.
Thanks to the heating magic tool running, it's very warm inside.
The lobby was lined with soft sofas, and there was a nice smell in the cafeteria.
Today, it is used only for hot springs because it is not intended for accommodation.
The employees were pretty worried because I was the first day-trip customer to come here, but we had a transfer, so there was no problem.
After paying the fee, we head for the hot springs inside the inn.
Of course, I'm going to be alone from here.
"Well then, I'll meet you at the lobby later." I'm going to take a long bath, so please enjoy your time. "
Got it.
Break up with Elsa and I'm going to the men's bathroom.
I have been lonely to come here alone, but I was a little relieved to be alone.
Even though I invited you, I was still tired of being surrounded by young women.
In that sense, it may have been convenient to be alone in the bathhouse.
Creatures like loneliness, wanting to be alone, and humans are complicated.
As he continued down the hallway with a bitter smile, he reached a wide undressing room.
There were no people in the dressing room, and it was almost rented out. I'm glad about this.
I quickly take off my clothes and go inside the locked shelf.
Wrapped in a locked bracelet, he took a towel and opened the large glass door.
Almost as white vapor envelops my sight.
A spacious bathing area welcomes you when the steam clears.
A large wooden hot tub on a tile floor made of black stone.
The ceilings are higher than I expected and they are spacious.
To be honest, this is no different from a typical bathing area, but there is another hot spring at this inn.
Further open the glass doors in the back and the outdoor hot spring is spread out.
"Oh, that's amazing..."
Inns built to follow the slopes of the mountains offer views of the mountains.
The view makes you feel the majesty of nature.
It was a little dim because the sun was dusk, but the light of the inn and private house made it look fantastic.
Hehehehe! Anyway, let's wash our bodies and soak them.
Forgetting to be naked, I fell in love with the view.
You'll catch a cold like this, so let's wash your hair and body in the washroom.
When you cleanse your body, it's time to wait.
Slowly submerge your entire body in the hot tub. Warm water envelops your body.
Ahh, it feels so good.
The foot bath is also comfortable, but it's still good to soak your whole body.
The cold of winter, the fatigue of walking around, and care for women. All the comforts of being erased. You'll be surrounded by the soft scent of wood and the unique scent of natural hot springs.
When I listened, I heard a slight sound of water besides the hot water in the hot tub.
When I moved to the edge of the hot tub and looked around, I noticed the river flowing downwards.
It's amazing to build a ryokan or hot spring in such a natural place.
When I was blurry looking at the scenery, I heard a high-pitched voice in the distance.
Maybe the Archets are soaking in the outdoor hot springs.
The clear words are inaudible, but there is no doubt that he is delighted by the high-tensed sounds.
I'm glad you're happy because I was going to work hard for the girls who usually work hard.
A little misfortune prevented the use of the mansion's bath, but it was good because as a result I was able to immerse myself in the hot springs of the Eustelia.
Exclusive use of the hot tub with stunning views on its own. What a luxury.
However, when you hear a lively voice, you still feel lonely being alone.
I'll ask Emilio to join us this time.
With that in mind, I enjoyed the outdoor hot spring on my own.
