Chapter 337

"I have been waiting."

"Sorry to have kept you waiting."

"..."

I seem to have been waiting in the changing room, and Bell called out to me in high spirits. I wanted to come earlier too, but Meleoron moves slowly, and it took me a long time to bring him over.

Earlier, when Uranus suggested to the two of them that they go to the Hot Spring together, Bell naturally agreed happily, and Motarike asked, "Are you sure?" as if being asked back.

Regardless of how Uranus responded, we decided to meet in the changing room immediately. It was up to me to forcibly pull away Meleoron's disorganized talk about mental preparation.

"It's cold, let's hurry inside."

Bell took off her twin-tail hair accessories and let her Ging hair down. Aside from her age, she is a beautiful woman. To the point where I don't know why I married Motarike.

Well, I have no responsibility to tell you how old I am, and I cannot tell you if you two are a good match... Hmm. But it is a mystery.

Bell took off her clothes immediately without hesitation. Waiting for us to finish undressing without hiding.... Splendid.

"Is it okay if I go in first?"

"If that's the case, then it wasn't worth the wait."

Let's go in together.

Ah. It is embarrassing to take off clothes while being watched. That is something I am not used to. Meleoron is also looking at me... No. The hairband has already been taken off, and I reluctantly untied my belt and took off my yukata. Took off my sports bra, put on my underwear—

"Wow!"

"I thought it was beyond the average size, but..."

"What is it?"

"What a good figure... I'm so envious, I really want to touch it."

"Please stop."

I panicked and covered it with my arms. Don't look at me like that. Especially if you don't like pudding.... Even if they are the same sex! People stare too much.

"Wow!"

"... No, sorry."

When I followed Bell's gaze, he had already taken off his Meleoron, revealing his entire body.

When I looked at it again, I could see that it was far from human.... From the experience of killing a large number of Chimera Ants in NGL, Meleoron's body is quite close to a human body. Even so, the characteristic joints, especially the large tail, deviate from the human body. The texture of the skin is also completely different. Of course, the bones, and possibly the internal organs. Even so, it is still very close to the human body... among all kinds of Chimera Ants.

Meleoron looked back at us with a complicated expression for a while,

"... I can't help but envy the human body even more."

Ah, yeah. If I had this child's body, I would be jealous.

I understand Molly's desire to keep it in a painting."

Wait a minute. Don't ruin my body.

"But you also have an artistic body, don't you?

Okay."

"... That's the reason I don't want to."

"Oh no no no!

I didn't mean it!"

"Just kidding. Don't worry."

That is a joke that cannot be laughed at... I don't even want to imagine it. If it were full, I don't know to what extent I would cry.

Meleoron walked briskly in a good mood, slowly moving its tail.

"You'll catch a cold, let's go in early."

"Yes yes."

"..."

Surprisingly, Meleoron took the initiative.... That person seems to be her. If separated, I would also be relieved.

"It seems my Nen Ability makes me feel this way..."

"Oh...

That's how it is. I feel sorry for you..."

Seeing the scales growing on Sim's hands and feet, Motarike muttered pitifully. At the same time, I quickly took off my clothes and wrapped it with a Towel.

"Hmm? Have you already taken it off?"

"Let's go, let's go in."

"Wait a minute, I'll take off my clothes right away too."

It is a disappointing body, beyond expectations.

"I was better before.

... But I don't want you to say too much."

"Shut up!

I have this constitution, it can't be helped! Don't look at it!"

"No, you are looking at me naked, aren't you?"

"Don't show me!!"

Only wrapping a Towel around your waist, you pervert!"

"Why must I be called a pervert...

You aren't wearing panties, right? About humans—"

"Wow!!"

You, you saw me changing clothes!?"

"... No, you."

"That's because I'm wearing a plain one-piece dress, so the underwear lines don't show. I wonder if he isn't wearing any."

"Ah!!"

Jie Feng gave a dry laugh. Entering the Mixed Bath was like a farce.

Snowflakes drifted down as the three of us soaked in the tub, exhaling.

"Ah...! Such hot water."

"No matter how many times I get in, the open-air Hot Spring is the best."

"Indeed..."

"Since coming to Snowflake, I've been here many times, but I've never grown tired of it."

"Does Aisha like soaking in the Hot Spring too?"

"The Hot Spring, or rather, I have always liked taking baths."

"I try to get in at least once a day."

"Hey, your hair is so well-maintained."

"Who are you?"

"... It wasn't like this at first, but now that I know how to enjoy bathing, I think I really like it."

"Eh, what is that, what is that?"

"For example, teasing a child like this."

"Wait a moment, please stop."

"Aisha is worth it."

"He is unusually picky; just criticizing him with words is quite fun."

"I know."

"Aren't you two with Uranus?"

"How is it, how is it?"

"It's great."

"In any case, I am with Aisha."

"Eh!?"

"What are you two doing!?"

"Wait, Meleoron!"

"Don't mislead people!"

"Oh? Is it a misunderstanding?"

"Who was it that thoroughly and carefully washed an unwilling Uranus?"

"Oh my."

"Meleoron!!"

"I washed his hair!!"

"What about Uranus?"

"What did Uranus do to this child?"

"Let me see..."

"But I'm sorry. That's because he didn't have the guts."

"Ah."

"I thought so... what a pity."

What is there to be sad about? Don't say Meleoron doesn't have the guts either.

"But that is why this child is active and diligent."

"He wanted to enter the Mixed Bath several times, and in the end, he only entered the Mixed Bath in the middle of the night..."

"──Woooooo!!"

It's true, but it's true, but don't say it like that!

"... I can hear some strange noises."

"Those guys are being too noisy..."

"..."

Just listening to it makes me feel embarrassed, making me want to bury my head in the bathtub.

"Uranus, hurry up and return to being a normal person!"

"Chen, I don't understand what you mean."

"But it looks fun."

"... Don't mind me, enjoy yourselves."

"That's too much, how can you be so heartless?"

"Uranus, please be a bit more reserved..."

"No."

"... Meleoron, you underestimate me. When I was washing my hair, I really felt your eyes watching me."

"It's fine, because we are men."

"Is that a good reason to stare?"

"Uranus, no matter how one looks at it, you look like a girl."

"Yes.

No, as a painter, seeing a subject like this gives me the urge to create."

"Stop it, that's really rude!!"

"Uranus..."

"Ah, already!

I shouldn't have accepted this model!"

"But is Uranus in that photo really that cute?

Is it that bad?"

"Shyness is good.

This guy has a foul mouth, but he's really shy, isn't he?

I find it hard to figure out how to express it."

"Oh, yes, I know, I know."

"Wooooooo...!"

"Ahahaha.

Uranus is also cute right now."

"As long as you don't speak, you are a peerless beauty; it's such a waste."

"You are Motarike!!"

At a table near the shop.

I collapsed onto the table, and a puff of thick smoke rose from the top of my head. Hatsu is too embarrassing...

An irritated Meleoron happily recounted what happened in the women's bathhouse.

"After all, dating is important.

Talking to you is fun."

"That's right, you hadn't spoken until now, and then you just blurted it out."

"Hmm, Meleoron and Bell seem to be getting along well...

Aisha, are you okay...?"

"... This won't do...

You don't need my followers..."

"No, no. It's not like that.

Since you came in with us, we haven't been without topics to talk about, have we?

If you think this will make our future relationship smoother, then it's no big deal."

"Oh, yes."

... I know what you mean. But don't weigh the fact that I'll be ashamed for the rest of my life.

Meleoron and Bell, who were sitting with me, just listened, annoyed and helpless. Annoying...

"Sorry, Aisha... I was too numb...

For lunch today, just order whatever you like..."

"That's what I intended to do, even if I didn't say it..."

I don't know if you think I'm greedy, but I will use food to relieve this stress. Absolute!

"Meleoron, don't ask for extra lunch as punishment...

No dessert, just you..."

"Yeah. What is that?"

"It's natural, but...

Don't think that if you let Aisha do it, you will be treated the same way...

Ooe, you're in such a bad mood today..."

"Hehe. Yes."

"I think you really need to fix your sister's personality."

I think so too...

... By the way.

"You look tired too... are you okay?"

Uranus collapsed onto the table next to me in the same posture as me. Seems to be there with Motarike-san.

"... It's no good."

"Thinking about the bathroom, I feel like a boiled octopus."

"So happy."

"What did you two do?

Molly, have you ever been naughty to Uranus?"

"Don't do that!

... However, when I observed him as a model, he was embarrassed."

"If I say Uranus is cute and adorable, it ends up like this."

"Oh.

I want to see that too, that's great."

"What are you happy about, wipe your drool."

"As an artist whose sole purpose is the subject of Painting, I am serious."

"Kurosu killed..."

... Hmm, I understand. You know, Uranus.

"No, don't feel embarrassed about Hidden your embarrassment.

It's not that you aren't serious, but that you are serious, aren't you?

I want to paint you again."

"The Noisy Bukoro"

Yeah... Mr. Motarike, this will backfire, right? I can only hear it like they are arguing. Mr. Bell is also a bit sullen, isn't he?

Although I was weak, I managed to recover myself and Uranus by snuggling under the Kotatsu.

It was almost noon, so I packed my things and left the Ancient Capital Afterglow inn.

We walked crunchily on the snow-covered road.... Is this snow road walkable? I stayed for quite a while. Thinking about it makes me feel deeply emotional.

"Uranus, are you coming to this town again?"

"Hmm... that's right.

I'm not good at fishing, so I'll be back soon."

"Ah, please invite me then too."

"Hey. You spent a lot of money this time, you know?

... Fine, if you want to."

You are cute, Uranus. We smiled bitterly when we met shim looking at us.

Bubble bubble...

The long-awaited lunch finally arrived. I thought it would be Salmon hot pot again today, but in the end, I ate at the restaurant where I had ordered Sukiyaki Hot Pot before. No matter how delicious something is, if you have it continuously, you will get tired of it.

The sweet fragrance of beef stew, the aroma of boiled soy sauce and soy sauce, and the green scent of green onions and garland chrysanthemums... Oh, not yet!

By the way, there are six people in this Tatami Room. Uranus proposed a plan for 6 people to eat Sukiyaki Hot Pot, and everyone agreed. When I heard it was difficult to order an extra Salmon pot, I couldn't help but nod. I want to eat without hesitation.

"By the way, Hot Pot Prefect, when? Not yet? Now?"

"Ahahaha."

"Then, who is the Hot Pot Magistrate?

I put in a lot of ingredients, so some are not boiled yet, but you can eat from the middle of the pot."

"Then let's eat quickly.

It's really great to eat hot pot with so many people."

"Hmm. Then let's start eating."

"Let's eat."

"Ah, it's really delicious..."

"You, that's what I've been doing just now."

"This meat is so delicious, isn't it?

Well, if I continue this luxury, I fear the consequences.

Do you guys usually eat such delicious food?"

"Because you are going to cross a dangerous bridge.

It is no good for you, who works hard and has great ambitions."

"Hmm..."

"Don't look so cold. Enjoy it now."

Uranus patted the back of the hunchbacked classmate Motarike.

"You guys are a good comparison.

shim-kun doesn't eat vegetables, and meleoron often eats vegetables."

"Tell me more.

This child doesn't eat many vegetables."

"Yeah. I'm still eating this..."

"Really? I don't think I eat too many onions or things like that."

"Look, so please eat more."

"Uh..."

"There is more meat, meleoron.

If you have nutritional bias, you can't talk about seam-kun, can you?"

"No."

"But I often use that hand to make chopsticks.

I'm surprised by that."

"I'm sad, this is..."

Putting aside this exchange, I ate happily. Meat, eggs, and rice! Meat, eggs, and rice!

Occasionally, the couple glanced at me, but said nothing. I don't know. I am now a machine releasing stress through food.... If I can, I want to do Training later.

Dip the udon noodles into the egg, stir, and slurp loudly. Hmm, delicious!

When Uranus added crunchy ingredients to the pot,

"Ah, Aisha.

What if I place an order in advance? I have to wait for the grilling time."

"Oh, yes..."

... Have I been flying too much? Well, whatever. Don't rely on anything.

Blow on the tofu and stuff it into my cheeks in one bite. Mmm, the flavor has been dyed.

"Speaking of which, I wonder if this dish originated here?"

After Mr. Bell took a sip of udon, he didn't ask anyone. I glanced at Uranus, and he tilted his head slightly and said,

"There is another theory that it is called japon, and I heard it is a spontaneous phenomenon that did not originate anywhere.

However, this is definitely a Japan dish."

"It goes well with Gohan, doesn't it?"

"That country will make anything that goes with white rice."

Nevertheless, the dietary culture of eating raw Fugura and Seaweed is mainly seen in Japan."

"Hey, raw sashimi, doesn't your stomach hurt?"

"Some sea fish can be eaten raw, but they have a unique smell that easily makes your stomach uncomfortable.

Without a doubt, it is basically better to use Fire."

"But sashimi is delicious, isn't it?"

"It depends on what kind of sashimi it is, but yes.

However, ocean pollution seems to be intensifying lately, so you have to be careful."

"Fugura"

After Mr. Bell said this, Seam looked at Uranus and said:

"I'm eating normally now, but you don't really eat raw eggs, do you?"

"Oh, if you're asking me."

When Mr. Bell reacted unusually, Uranus seemed to think a little,

"Only a few places can provide safe raw eggs.

Basically, eggs are easy to breed bacteria, so it is safer to cook them.

However, there is no problem eating fresh eggs that have been properly disinfected.

In Japan, it is very normal for Gohan to eat raw eggs."

"Ha!

Is it delicious?"

"It's just a simple dish, so it's moderate. If there's nothing else, then it's terrible.

Will you at least add some soy sauce?"

"Shall we try it?"

After saying that, I put an egg on the Gohan, then added sukiyaki soup, and I mixed them Together.

Then I put the sukiyaki Material on the rice and stirred it vigorously. Mmm, delicious.

"... Isn't this just porridge?"

"I'm sure it's delicious."

Regarding the couple's complaints, "ngagugu" was applied. *Cough cough*, did you make a discovery?

"Well, it's a kind of glue that goes with eggs on rice.

Anything is fine, as long as you can eat as you please and fill your stomach instantly."

Uranus nodded.

"Ah... ate, ate..."

Motarike said this and grew. Even ate dessert, looking satisfied.... I also secretly rubbed my stomach.

"Ah. Everyone is cheating."

"Shh.

I mean, you're the one who has been messing around since this morning, so think about it properly."

"Yes."

Melerong, who couldn't get enough of vegetables and had no dessert, was dissatisfied. But there was no sympathy. I really wanted to reflect.... Burp.

"By the way, you healthy drinker struggle hey..."

"I've seen people who eat a lot, but this is my first time seeing a girl go that far."

"Where did you make that Discovery..."

"Molly. That's too rude."

"Uh, yes... sorry."

"Ah, no no... I'm already used to being told that."

I have never shown myself eating so much in front of this couple. I couldn't help but react like this.

"Then, what do you plan to do in Dorias?"

Mr. Bell asked, but Uranus stopped him with his hand.

"I will talk to you before I leave, but let's stop here.

I'm going to put my luggage at the two people's place for the winter, so I want to discuss it there. Okay?"

"Yeah, that's fine, we also have to prepare.

I want to drink Molly's coffee for the first time in a long while."

"Long time no see, you also drank it yesterday."

"Details are fine."

"Please everyone, perform well."

"Yes, yes."

"Then, have you already gone home?"

"To us, it doesn't feel like going home.

What do you all do? Are you going to Antokiba now?"

"I don't mind."

"I am also fine."

"I am also fine."

"Because.

Then, let's hurry and pay the bill to go to Antokiba.... Ha."

"What was that sigh?"

"Budget control, I.

Paying now.... Ha."

Continue shifting my gaze. I don't know. No way, it's already done, yes.

The female NPC at the checkout counter smiled and read out the bill.

"6 servings of Sukiyaki Hot Pot, 3 servings of beef, 3 servings of mixed ingredients, 6 servings of unlimited soft drinks, 5 servings of dessert, total 39,500 jenny."

"Ah...!"

"Ahahahaha.

As expected, this is quite an expense for 6 people. Thanks for the meal."

"My hand shrank by half all of a sudden. Lunch is like this...

Toho..."

Achikorn love!

Walked outside the shop and looked at each other.

... Let us bid farewell to this snow-covered landscape for now. The City of Four Seasons can be seen everywhere. If it is purely for sightseeing, you might want to come a few times.... Hmm, Sorondo only allows swimwear. Don't have that.

"Book.

Let us all go.

--'Companion/Companion' on. Antokiba."

A floating sensation. The silver world vanished in an instant.
