Chapter 310

Seam stood up from the bathtub, and Meleoron also stood up to accompany him, washing his body.

I have already warmed up, so it is time to get up and wash my body.

Approaching Uranus, who was also soaking in the bathtub,

"Please wash your body now.

Once finished, I will begin the diagnosis."

"Yes..."

Sad, like being sentenced to death, the floating face of Sokan. I don't really like it. I don't like it.

On the contrary, I feel very happy. I was beaten again today, by this stupid cat. I will pay you back. Jajanken, Jajanken, Jajanken...

"What?

It doesn't feel very good to be washed by someone like me, right?"

"There is no such thing."

It sounded like rustling, so Meleoron must be washing Shim's hair. By getting along well.

I have already finished washing my body and am taking my time to wash my hair. If you don't take the time to do it properly, it will be completely different. Biscuit taught me many things on Whale Island; I thought it was quite troublesome at the time, but now I want to thank you. My mom also praised me, hehe.

Uranus finally got out of the bathtub and seemed to be washing his body. Because he is Together with Meleoron and the others, it feels very lively there.... I don't feel lonely. I don't want you to come here.

"Oh, no. I've run out of shampoo."

I heard Uranus's voice. Did you accidentally bring an empty shampoo Container?

"What are you going to do? Are you going to use this?"

"Is that so? Hmm..."

A troubled voice. Hmm.... I'm finished washing, hmm.

"Do you want to use mine?"

"Ah... may I borrow it?"

"Yeah, I've already finished washing."

Uranus and I use the same shampoo. The rinsing and other things are different, but the shampoo my mom recommended has run out, so I am also using Uranus's. I just want to give you a little bit of a return.

Meleoron showed his face here.

When I tried to hand the shampoo to him, Meleoron turned his hand toward me. A fart? A rejection?

Pointing his thumb toward the direction you came from.

…………What is this pervert plotting? And the question I mentioned before...

However... is this okay? It's just a little ahead of schedule.

After gently wiping my body, I wrapped it in a Bath Towel.... Don't be easily Transparent. I can't help it, I was just soaking in the bathtub.

To those holding Uranus with one hand. Shim nearby was surprised to see me.

"Hey? Meleoron, not yet... hmm?"

He probably sensed a sign. After gently finishing washing his hair, his back jumped suddenly, and he lowered his head, waiting.

I turned around on its back. I took an appropriate amount of shampoo in my hand and rubbed it gently with hot water,

"Then I'll go wash."

"Eh eh eh!? Wait a minute!?"

"I don't mind."

I used my arms to make her lower her head, shaking her cherry-colored hair.

"Ah ah ah ah!?"

"Please don't move.

This is my first time washing a person's hair."

Wash, shake, shake... hmm, let's be honest. This is too interesting. I can't afford my own hair, but because it's someone else's hair, I can afford it.

With this much hair, I will be a little helpful when washing. When washing hair, if you are not careful, you might miss a spot or wash too much, unable to wash it properly.

Most importantly, this hair feels good to the touch. It is usually well cared for. Smooth and fluffy, the hair quality is as good as mine, but I might be a step behind in terms of care. Wow.

While Uranus was washing his hair, Shim and Meleoron returned to the bathroom.... I was worried that something might be set up, but I didn't do anything. I really don't understand.

"Oh, you know.

Isn't the first time bad?"

Wow wow wow.

"Hmm, is that so?

I was doing this, thinking that somehow it was like this."

This is my first time washing someone else's hair, but I have washed my own hair countless times. Mainly my mom's. The experience from that era is also vivid.

Most importantly, shampooing is a scalp massage rather than just shampooing. On the contrary, it is knowledge that also leads to martial arts. He knows a lot about Biscuit and taught me many things.

Hmm... I started half of it as Harassment. I thought he would hate me a little more, but he is surprisingly quiet, this cat.... But it's fine.

"Has anyone ever washed your hair like this?"

"……

In the village, I let my sister do it for me."

"……

Is that so?"

Wow wow wow.... Uranus lost energy for some reason. Did I say too much? But I didn't have time to be silent.

"Your hair is well maintained.

You can see it clearly just by washing it like this... it really is good stuff."

"Yes...

My older sister, you know, messed up my hair.

Even though I've left the village, I want to do this properly."

Wow, wow, wow... I think I could ask a lot of questions, but I can't wash for too long. Let's keep it at this state.

"Mm, rinse it off."

"Mm... it's fine.

If you've finished with the shampoo, wash it yourself."

"No, the diagnosis has already begun."

"Eh, eh, eh... too aggressive.

Where is the diagnosis?"

To make him shut up, I poured hot water on him. While replenishing the next bit of hot water in the bathtub,

"Hair diagnosis.

But this state is very good.

It's better than being told my hair is stupid, hahaha."

"Ah, mm.

Sorry, are you worried?"

Dabababa, the second time. This time, while gently rubbing the hair,

"The hair you are proud of is what you inherited from your mother.

... This hair has long since drifted away, there's nothing I can do about it."

"I understand. Then you shouldn't try to fix it."

After saying that, I shut my mouth. I couldn't think of a topic, so I focused on washing for a while.

"Mm, what are you planning to do next?"

When asked, Uranus raised his face. "Wow!?"

Ah... the mirror? Don't let my image appear even a little. Hmm...

Just as I was thinking that, Uranus picked up a Towel nearby and stuck it onto the mirror.

"Ha...

I don't think it will come off easily, because I temporarily stuck it with my aura."

"... Please be polite."

"Mm, I always use treatment after this..."

"Yes, yes.

Then, after the treatment is finished, we still have to wait for a while, do you want to make a diagnosis then?"

"... It was a lie about the hair diagnosis after all."

"No, I didn't say I'd leave it to you, did I? I carefully examined your hair.

This is a body diagnosis."

"..."

Even if it's treatment? If I don't have time, I won't use it. Sometimes I enter more than once a day, so I feel there's no need to enter every time.

"Uranus cares about hair damage.

Unless I feel it's damaged, I won't use it."

"Ah, yes. There are some things that bother me.

My hair immediately puts me in a bad mood."

Hmm... maybe there's a weakening effect. This is a big deal.

"Aisha will understand when she grows up.

Just being young, how can one be beautiful without doing anything?"

"Oh. What is that?

Even Uranus isn't that much older, right?"

"No...

But Aisha is better."

"What is mine?"

"Nothing."

"... Don't you think there's something strange?"

"No!"

Just as I was speaking, my hands were also moving. I drained Uranus's hair and began to apply the treatment I got from him to the ends.

"Do you have a comb?"

"Yes."

Uranus showed me the comb in his hand. You will need it when you are finished. If it weren't there, I would comb with my hands.

After finishing the treatment, waiting for the effects of Infiltration, I finally began a light diagnosis.

"Please take a deep breath first."

Put your hand on your back.... Well, okay, looking at it again, that's a small matter. How can it look so small without clothes? Perhaps, the width of the beauty leaf field is estimated because there aren't many people. It looks taller than it is.

And this touch. Although it is small, it is very soft. It has a fluffy texture that makes you want to call it a small animal. They look like cherry blossoms. Oh, it's a Kumani person.

"I will touch here and there for a while, please be patient."

"Don't touch such strange..."

"For example?"

"For example..."

This cat is interesting when I tease her, but I also feel a bit awkward. I feel like it's been reversed.

Gently massage your shoulders, place your hands in your armpits, and rotate your shoulder blades. Squishy squishy.

"Cough, so ticklish..."

"Tickling? What are you talking about?"

Wrap your fingers around the armpits and wiggle them.

"Ahahahaha!

"Hey, hey, hey, are you okay?"

"Jibujibujibu, that part is really no good, hahaha!"

"... The two of you seem to be having a lot of fun."

From the bathtub, the siblings watch the two's diagnosis (?) with surprised expressions.

"Hmph! Flirting naked in a Mixed Bath, you don't hesitate at all.

If you aren't pretending to be a doctor, what are you talking about?"

"... That kind of thing?

It's different from what I know."

"He is just pretending to be an adult doctor.

If your level increases again, it's too early for you."

"... Sister, what are you talking about?"

"You don't need to know yet."

"Wait, Aisha!

"I am willing.

I am checking if there is a problem with the palpation."

"Then tell me if it's good or bad!"

"Don't panic.

I will make a comprehensive judgment, so I will notify you as soon as possible."

"..."

Uranus is likely suspicious. Natural? I was just playing as I pleased. Be serious.

There are no scars on his body. Beautiful skin. The texture of the skin has the luster and tension of a child.

No Transmutation is seen in the skeleton. That center of gravity control. Even with a slight deviation, that level might not be reproducible. Is this area also healthy?

Muscles... what bothers me is this abnormal squishy feeling. However, it feels great to touch.

I also tried to relax my muscles while weakening my defense, but I have to say this is abnormal for Uranus. I know I am weak to conserve strength, but I am not strong enough to melt and fall down at any time.

Does this mean your physical strength is declining? The muscle strength is probably the same, but perhaps the internal organs and bodily functions are being evenly exhausted.

On the contrary, yes. It means it continues to weaken, still maintaining this state. What kind of physical fitness did you originally have?... However, it wasn't a big deal when I was around ten years old, because that was before I was reminded.

Looking back, Uranus is usually smart, but his actions tend to be surprisingly powerful. Also very active. Clearly the athletic orientation of a human with excellent physical strength.

Perhaps it is not a natural weakening like lurking aura, but even if it seems unreasonable to others, the person himself is very likely just doing what he was able to do in the past.

Just like getting old.... It must be difficult.

"Aisha?"

"Oh, yes."

Unknowingly, my hand was placed on his back and had already stopped moving. Let go of your hand.

But I don't know what to do... According to my check, no abnormalities have been found yet. Even if something happened, I wouldn't be able to notice it with my knowledge.

I want to point out some things so I don't use too much force, but... at least I wish I could see the aura.

"Actually, I want to diagnose from the front of the body..."

"Aisha? That won't work, right?

I will run away soon. If you do that..."

Uranus replied with a trembling voice. I don't like it either. I can't believe I can see my body up close, even if it is in a Bath Towel. But... the main organs I want to check are concentrated in the front, and they are almost invisible from the back.

I am not a doctor. Do not make irrelevant guesses.

"..."

I cannot find any particular problems.

From the muscles of the whole body, one can see weakness like chronic fatigue.

Day after day, unreasonable Curse, very much so, are you overworked?"

"I am overworked...

But when do you have to push yourself now? I think..."

"... Are you okay?

Stick for a month, don't overdo it.

If I recover my strength, you can get rid of it yourself, and you can safely carry out the game strategy."

"No.

... If Aisha can no longer use her Magic of the Phantom Troupe, we can't enjoy sightseeing together like we do now, right?

I must ensure safety, so I will endure it for about a month."

…………

"And that is exactly what you are doing."

Petari. Hands placed on his back.

"It is all about people..."

"... Aisha?"

No matter how many times this person says it. Do not put yourself first...

"So if you force yourself, break your body.

... who would be happy? What happened to your promise to protect me?"

"Aisha..."

I do not even know what to say. My brain is a mess, my thoughts are incoherent.

The only thing I can think of is—I do not like this kind of thing from this person. Unacceptable...

"You are our lifeline.

Meleoron and Seam are both very worried about you.

... But, when you ignore yourself, what are you going to do?"

"Yes..."

"No, pretending to understand is useless.

Do you really understand why I am diagnosing you so unreasonably?"

"..."

Uranus said nothing.

"Please lend me your comb."

"Yes."

Taking the comb from Uranus's hand, I began to comb his hair.

"Please take care of yourself, at least this hair.

If I feel you are going too far, no matter how many times, I will stop you."

"... You are kind, Aisha."

I want to tell the truth.... I do not want you to say that.

I remember my mother's teachings.

────If someone can help you within their capabilities, let them help.

In this regard, neither he nor I will change.

... But my mother also said this.

Put yourself first, and if you can afford it, reach out to others.

He...

Even though he is the most uncomfortable himself, he still wants to help others. This is also reflexive.

"... That is what my friend said.

Helping others in times of distress is not kindness, it is stupidity."

"Etta... Tatata.

Well, I cannot deny it.

Really.... Good grief, this person is an idiot."

"If I had not followed you, would your capture not have gone more smoothly?"

"That is not true.

Aisha, you took several cards.

I only intended to do some sightseeing or research for the time being, but I did not expect such great progress."

"... And at the same time brought you a Heavy burden.

I am also worried about Seam. I wonder if I am an Obstacle."

"Why?

If everyone were not here, and I were doing it alone, I might have missed the chance to clear it again."

"... But you were looking for companions from the start, right?

This time, you did not intend to play alone from the beginning, did you?"

"..."

"Do not tell stupid lies.

If it were you, there would definitely be people who want to be friends in the game.

Last time I might have insisted on soloing, but this time it should be different.

If you do not force us...

You have never suffered alone, have you?"

Putting the comb back to the quiet Uranus, I washed away the treatment with the hot water in the tub.

"... I had a lot of fun with Aisha and the others."

"..."

I do not deny that either.

If your burden is too Heavy, that is another matter."

"No, that is not right."

The reason I can carry this Heavy burden now is because I am Together with Aisha and the others.

If I were Together with others, I wouldn't be trying this hard. When you are Together with someone you cannot trust, you cannot let your guard down. My heart cannot be at peace.

"……Really?"

"Splendidly..."

Depends on the opponent.

Hmm…. Would it be better to answer honestly?

"Next is the rinse, right? Please lend it to me."

"Yes……"

"Even if you say you want to do it yourself no matter what, won't you let me do it?"

"Of course."

"If you go this far, I will do it alone."

"Aisha is the same; she really wants to do things herself."

Oh, will you counter like that? ……But I won't deny it.

"If you don't take the initiative to steal your work, you won't try to distribute the load."

"Well, I have some ulterior motives."

"Uh, what are your ulterior motives?"

"Again."

"Did you forget something?"

"Hmm?"

"Did you finish the diagnosis? Anything else—"

"Sakura."

"Did you forget?"

"One."

"……No, wait a minute, Aisha. Didn't you say you wouldn't add to my burden now?"

"Calling Sakura at this time will definitely increase my burden."

"That is a different story."

"Let's keep our promise."

"Gavin!"

As I made him tremble, I tilted his head and rinsed his hanging hair.

Sure enough, it was hard to talk in this state, so I focused on finishing the rinse.

After finishing the rinse, Tianwangxing's hair was smooth. Even without looking at his face, I could tell he was in a good mood.

"Thank you, Aisha."

"It feels much better than I expected."

"Just saying thank you is enough, hurry up and agree to Sakura."

"Uh……"

"Isn't that obvious?"

"Four people enter the Mixed Bath, make a diagnosis, and call Sakura a group."

"You promised, right?"

"I did, but..."

"Already. Fine."

The resigned Tianwangxing raised his dripping right hand,

"White Hila of the night world, let the cat's whim Mugu reply—"

Fluently chanting and dancing with your wet fingertips.

"──【Sun Cat/Bastet】──"

A cloud of mist. Sakura crawled over the top of Tianwangxing's head. For a moment—

Sakura slid down along the back hair.

"I—he—he—he—!?"

"Speak, speak, don't pull!"

Tianwangxing twisted in pain. I couldn't grab Sakura well because I couldn't turn around. Sakura didn't listen, grabbing her loose back hair. This is bad.

I hurriedly grabbed Sakura with both hands, and she let go of the hair.

When you held her to your chest, Sakura called out sweetly, "nyaan."

Tianwangxing rubbed his pulled scalp in pain,

"I----------"

"Wait a minute. That guy even has a limit to being a plague god—"

"Nya!"

"Don't call me a plague god."

"You are so cute."

"Mew……"

Glad you are still soft. The other cat is angry.

"Sakura"

Seam noticed and shouted happily. "Yes? Have you been watching this the whole time?"

The cat on my chest was squirming, so I regretfully placed it on the Stone floor.

Sakura glanced at me and then ran into the bathtub.

I watched as Doban and Sakura jumped into the bathtub. It immediately floated up and approached the seam, swimming with a Jaba-Jaba and cat-patch style motion.

"Ahahahaha. You are a good swimmer."

"Meow meow."

Seam smiled and greeted Sakura.

"... Are you sure? Have you already let go of Sakura?"

Tianwangxing asked without looking at me.

"I heard Sakura went over there.

Of course, from now on, I will go to love you too."

"Are you old?

Ha... I am so tired."

"Hehe, thank you for your hard work.

I look forward to your continued support."

Telling me, I also went to the bathtub.

After soaking her body in the bathtub, Tianwangxing finally stood up and walked into the bathtub.

"... Hey, Aisha. Don't stare at me."

Tianwangxing covered her chest in protest. By the way, the Towel at my waist was still wrapped around me. However, it was very Transparent. Not applicable.... Be careful with me too.

"Is now not the time?

I am enjoying the Squishy Princess's body very much."

"What?

This is truly a monster, isn't it?"

"Yes.

Since the pervert is knocking at the door, I will respond too. A cat covered its face and shivered.

"Ahahaha."

"Meow meow meow."

A child and a cat were playing behind us, making splashing sounds.

... Right, it's fun. I don't know how many times we've come, but I hope the four of us can enter together again.
