Chapter 193

Carefully wiping the moisture from my hair with a Bath Towel, it was different from usual, carrying a faint scent of citrus.

Once again, I saw the large backpack enshrined in the changing room and let out a deep sigh.

"It is...

I have to pack my luggage..."

At first, I didn't even change my clothes.... How many baths do you want to take?

Half-giving up, I took out the things in the backpack. First, Giga.

--Clothing Girl--

"Hmm..."

After getting used to the usual athletic look.

Looking at the thick pile of clothes, I once again regretted why I had brought such an idiot.

"Yes yes yes yes yes...

I should do it, right?"

I didn't get booed by anyone and started organizing.

--Girl Organizing--

"Nu...

... Troublesome. I can't delete it."

I folded all the clothes and put the other miscellaneous goods Together.

But if you ask me which one I don't need, I need them all. I can't say I Absolutely need any of them. I can't reduce my luggage because I can't prioritize it.

"Mm."

Putting down the luggage, I walked out of the changing room barefoot.

Leaving the water area, I let my face peek into the room.

Hey, the three of you are all huddled in front of the monitor. Are you playing a game?... Mm? For some reason, I felt signs of unease from the three of them.

With a bad premonition, I approached him.

"Oh? Aisha, are you done with your bath?"

Uranus called out.

"Yeah, well.

Hmm... it's time to pack up.

It's not good to reduce the amount of luggage, what should I do?"

"Ah...

If that's the case, no. I don't have time, so don't overdo it, just leave it at that.

If you're going to take the one you're washing, don't forget to pack it away."

"Oh, yes."

That's right. The laundry isn't finished yet.... Is it before 10 o'clock now? Just a little bit more.

... That's all.

I stared at the three people. A very familiar BGM. In an unpleasant way.

Uranus had a normal face, but Meleoron and Seam's eyes were Fixed.

"... Aisha.

Isn't this game scary?"

Meleoron sighed. I warned you. I don't know any more.

"I was severely ripped off by my sister."

There were faint traces of three Fingers on Seam's cheek. Hehehe...

"Meleoron..."

"This guy, at a nasty timing, he's going to use Bus Bus Magic."

"Because if you don't use it, you'll lose!"

Ah, the sound of a sibling relationship breaking...

"Aisha... should I turn into a Demon?"

... Meleoron was running in 4th place all by himself.

Before I could say anything.

"I think I should stop."

A bit of Uranus. Brother, you're playing this game.

"Hmm...

Please be moderate. It's almost time for Greed Island."

I turned my back to the three of them and returned to the water.

"Look again!"

"Because!"

... Why does everyone want to ruin friendships for the things they like?

After Aisha closed the water door.

The three of them looked at the screen, their expressions eerily cold.

"... Aisha, aren't you crying?"

Hearing the heart's words, Meleoron tilted his head slightly.

"We cried quite a lot too. Aisha, weren't you crying in the bathroom as well?

My eyes are so red."

Uranus fell silent.

"……Aisha, you look so cute after your bath."

"Seam, you're mostly just being a nuisance too.

……But I won't deny it.

I think I'll have a lot of fun; is that child doing alright?"

Meleoron asked, looking at Uranus.

"No, even if you ask me."

Meleoron stared at Uranus, his speech clipped.

"Uranus.

……Seeing that girl all wet after her bath, your heart is pounding."

"Don't do that!"

"Whew, after the bath, my heart beats for Aisha."

Seam stirred here. Uranus hurriedly waved his hands,

"You mean your heart isn't beating! What on earth are you two doing!?"

"Eh. Seeing Aisha like this, didn't your heart flutter?"

"Isn't this fine? Even if you feel excited about a cute girl.

Because you're a boy."

"Omara, seriously Meleoron!!"

The siblings accused Dokapo of holding a grudge against the original. A terrifying off-field tactic. This is the true value of friendship destruction.

I temporarily put my luggage back into the backpack, but there are two things I need to consider.

One is the laundry. Are you going to bring that piece of clothing? There's that. Whether it's there doesn't matter…… but if you leave it here, you might forget it. Don't know when I'll be able to come and get it.

The other is Joy Station. I'm a bit worried about whether I can bring it to Greed Island. You can try this. Uranus is also interested in it as a test.

……Yes. Do you want me to bring all of this?

The drying will finish in about two minutes, so I placed the backpack on the water surface to wait for it.

After packing my luggage, I finally returned to my own room.

Putting the backpack down with a bang,

"Thanks for waiting.

Uranus, thanks for the bath."

"Yes……

What should I do after that?"

……For now, I want you to stop using Goo. Even Uranus has his eyes. What happened in such a short time—the destruction of friendship, I understand.

"Can't the three of you just not wash?

Even if I say that, it's doubtful since time has already passed."

It's already past 10 PM now. Less than two hours until Departure. You don't have to try to move so tightly, but being lax is no good. I want to participate in the monthly tournament.

"Hmm.

Meleoron and Seam, why don't you take a bath? I'm going to wash the clothes I'm wearing now.

I'm already out of time."

Once Uranus said this, Meleoron and Seam looked at each other, their expressions somewhat puzzled.

"……Are you going to take a bath with your siblings?"

Uranus was startled by Meleoron's reaction.

"Is it funny?"

"No……

You don't have to worry. My body is already like this."

"Hm? Is that so?"

Uranus's reaction was strange, so I'll ask him.

"Uranus, have you been taking baths with people?"

Uranus responded. He finally realized that this wasn't a normal feeling.

"……

Taking a bath with an older sister is a matter of course."

"……I see."

I see. You said you have an older sister. ……Maybe that's why I have special feelings for these two. Well, an older sister, huh……

"If I don't have time to want to bathe and do laundry, I don't mind.

Seam?"

"……It's fine to like an older sister."

"I'll tell you, I don't have anything sexy or bullshit.

……Uranus. Are you okay?"

"I'm fine.

We don't have time, and it doesn't matter in the game—"

"I am asking if you will also join us."

"Teeth?"

... Strange clouds.

As Meleoron twisted the corners of his mouth,

"You don't have time, you want to take a bath and wash your clothes, right?

Then the three of us should go in. Force majeure, force majeure."

"Eh!? What are you saying!?

You said I was good!"

The panicked Uranus is too cute. Somehow, my heart is pounding for no reason.

"It's fine, it's fine.

You are a woman at heart, aren't you? Shim is the same gender, so it's no problem, and I'm not human, so it doesn't matter."

"I'm not doing well!!"

"Ahahahaha!"

The seams are rolling with laughter. Sorry, I'm watching too.

"Look.

I have to let you give me a full-body plastic surgery...

Anyway, I hope you put it back in the meantime."

... Meleoron, I know what you are saying, but you are too sexy. Just the words. Not to mention the looks.

"I, I know, but...

I don't need to take a bath with you."

"What are you saying? That's one-sided.

I'll let you see mine too."

"You are an idiot!!"

"You said I have a complex about my body!

You don't want to show it!"

"Small breasts are also called status and rare value..."

"────Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"

"What rare value is there in a man's small chest!!"

"Ahahahaha!!"

I laughed along with Shim. It was too funny.

"Hehe.

If you say that, you're out of time. Aiko-ko."

"Whoa. Hey, Meleoron, are you serious!?"

"Wait wait wait wait, don't pull! Hey!"

"Shi-mu. Do me a favor."

"Yes."

"Oh!? Are you betraying Seam!?"

"I have been your enemy from the very beginning."

"Gyaaaaa! Wait, wait, no!

Aisha mission!"

"Sorry, Uranus. I'm weak!"

"Hey, here...!

Seriously, stop it!"

"Yes. Three people, please."

The sluice gate opened and slapped shut. The gates of hell closed.

... Nam-nam.

I heard screams coming from the other side of the door, but I ignored them.

So, what about the joystick?

I wonder if joining would be more interesting for me.... Hmm, no.

I also cleaned the joystick. I managed to pack my bags.

Yes.

... I don't have time.

I am the only one in the spacious room.... I am lonely.

The clock says 10:20 PM. It seems it will still take a long time for the three of them to come out of the bath. If you have no one to talk to, don't worry. I don't even want to take out the Game Console to play anymore; I'm getting more and more bored.

I have nothing to do, so I tap the table in front of me with my Finger. Hmm, forming Zen is somewhat different. I'm in a bad mood.

………….

When I said areyoareyo, the situation shifted, and I ended up in this situation. Until a few days ago, I never dreamed I would come to Greed Island again.

And, with three people I just met. I think I have lived for a long time, but I don't know what life is...

Intuitively, I knew right away that Uranus was someone I could trust. Basically trustworthy, or rather, kind. Even the Chimera Ant that asked for help was taken care of with kindness.

And there are Meleoron and Shim. I can't even doubt that kind of brotherly love where they protect each other. As far as the aura he emits when he is emotional, which I have seen, there is no sign of any deception.

I really want to do something. I just pray the Hunter Association isn't the mastermind... but what should I do if I turn the Hunter Association into an enemy? I don't even want to think about it.

Well, the connection isn't singular either, so it's very possible... Anyway, if I don't check, what am I supposed to do?

... Come to think of it, there is a bookshelf here. May I read something to you?

I stood up and walked toward the bookshelf.

The bookshelf against the wall was piled full of books. Books that looked expensive from their bindings were also lined up in a row. I wonder if it's okay to read this... well, if it doesn't work out, I'm sorry.

"Hmm."

I stared at the titles on the spines of the books on the nearby shelf.

"Hackers: Monsters Nesting in Web Pages"

... What kind of mess is this?

I don't know where to start, but the Minmei Shobo series has a strange presence. This is definitely an unreliable bastard. Isn't "I am Forever Ice" a complete joke?

Also, I saw a title harmful to my mental health, but I decided not to look at it at all.

... Or to be more precise, I have an immoral feeling, like I'm sifting through someone else's pornographic books.... Just looking at the titles makes me feel apologetic.... In other words, I don't have time to wait.

Hmm. Regardless, if you are going to read it, it would be good to have a book you can't see for the time being.... Ah, Akemi Bookstore is nice. No smell of spoilers.

"Hmm..."

"It's her."

Dogi!!

I was startled and looked in the direction the voice came from; Meleoron suddenly walked over.

"Wh-wh-what is it?"

"No, come to think of it, I thought I hadn't changed my clothes or done the laundry.

... What are you looking at?"

"Hmm...

I don't have time, so I want to read something."

"Hmm.

Ah, yes, Aisa."

"Yes.

What do you want?"

Meleoron grinned. What the hell.

"He's not wearing any."

Yes?

"... What, who?"

"Underwear. Uranus... as usual."

Hmm?

"──Ah?

Hmm? ────Ahhhhhhhhhhh!?"

What is this... that...!! I'm not wearing... that...!!

"Just as I thought, right!? I think so, anyway?"

"Um, yes...

What's wrong with you?"

"You're curious, aren't you? It's been a long time since I said that.

When I forced myself to ask about this, I was told that I don't want to wear men's underwear, and even if I wanted to, I couldn't wear women's underwear."

────Stop it!!

Not expecting it to be someone else's problem, I covered my face and trembled.

"Eh, why are you reacting like that?

Don't you think it's funny? It's fluttering like that, but you're not wearing any. Pfft, haha."

────Stop it, Uranus will die!!

Imagining the hell unfolding in the bathroom made me shudder.

"Ah, I can't keep you waiting any longer, so I'll be going now.

I'll be out in about 30 minutes."

"Yes..."

Meleoron wagged his tail, carried his luggage, and disappeared into the water.

... I can't say too much about my obligations, but Meleoron is completely no longer a woman...

Well, this team.
