Ethan and I came downstairs after quickly ending our love affair that almost crossed the line on the bed.

Ethan and I both came into the locker room with slightly red faces, perhaps because of the atmosphere from earlier. The manager calmly pushed me and Ethan into the same locker room as if he was abetting this atmosphere.

‘If you put the clothes you are wearing in this basket, I will wash, dehydrate, and dry them within the morning of the next day and bring them up to your room.’

“Oh, by any chance there is only one bathroom here… .”

‘Have a great time, Prince Ethan and Lady Lilith.’

-Kkiik.

“… … .”

“… … .”

… Well, it’s not funny to ask for two bathtubs to be used because the atmosphere is awkward when you’re in good hands.

It was Ethan and I who slowly took off our clothes in a somewhat mysterious atmosphere and began preparing for the ceremony.

– Excited.

‘Calm down, calm down. ‘It’s not even the first time I’ve been in the same bathroom as Ethan.’

– Excited, excited.

‘To begin with, strictly speaking, I only did something in the bathroom once, and most of the time I just went into the bathroom with them or washed them… .’

Ethan and I take off our clothes one by one, somehow holding on to our pounding hearts.

The only consolation is that I’m not the only one who overreacts like this, and Ethan is probably feeling the same way.

With that in mind, Ethan and I quietly put our clothes in the basket and went into the bathroom. We just sat facing each other and poured warm water from the bathtub all over our bodies.

-Slap.

“… … .”

“… … .”

-Slap, slap.

“… … .”

“… … .”

The atmosphere is tense and suffocating.

Even though we had each other’s naked bodies in front of us, we had no intention of doing anything particularly dirty.

The purpose of the treatment, which was to ease Ethan’s mood, had already been achieved, and as Ethan said, it was time for a class to explore necromancy.

Following the manager’s guidance, the two naturally entered the same bathroom together, but they never entered with any strange purpose.

-Glance.

“… … .”

-Glance, glance.

“… … .”

However, no matter how much we tried, we couldn’t hold back all those emotions, so Ethan and I secretly took a peek at the body of the person sitting across from us.

It was inevitable that my eyes would be drawn to Ethan’s body, and I felt quite a bit of attention from Ethan as well, so they probably felt the same way as me.

“… … !”

“… … !!”

-Startle.

Then, sometimes, when we made eye contact, we quickly avoided each other, and so on.

‘When you look at things like this, it almost feels like Ethan is a different person when he’s doing something naughty and when he’s not doing it.’

Is it naive or insidious? For me, both were good, so it didn’t really matter.

So, Ethan and I ended the session in a hurry, seemingly not knowing where to focus our attention, and took a quick dip in the bathtub together, thinking of the manager who had given us water after such a long time.

When I returned from the bath, which made me feel warm in many ways, the manager had moved the blankets for me and Ethan into the room.

‘As I mentioned earlier, my routine is to wash bed sheets and blankets every day. No matter how cleanly you use it, you will have to wash it every day, so Prince Ethan and Lady Lilith, please feel free to use it.’

“… Ah yes… .”

“… Okay, you can stop emphasizing that part now.”

The manager of the villa makes me even more nervous by telling me not to worry.

After thinking about it, I thought I couldn’t keep calling him manager, so I thought I’d take this opportunity to ask him his proper name.

“So, what is your name, Manager?”

‘I am the administrator of the mansion created by Professor Mamali, so I have no fixed name.’

“Then, is there a name or title that would be appropriate? It feels a bit awkward to keep calling me manager.”

‘First of all, my official name given by Professor Mamali is ‘Villa Management Intelligent Entity No. 4′.’

“I think that’s a bit long to use as a name… .”

‘In that case, I don’t mind if you call me Dina for short.’

“… Okay, Dina.”

‘Yes, Miss Lilith.’

It was a title that had nothing to do with abbreviation, but I didn’t bother to point it out.

“Lilith, flying from the air!”

“Confirmed, Master Ethan!”

The battle in the necromantic exploration class, the next day.

Ethan and I were in the midst of an intense battle against the undead boss monsters that popped out today as always.

A jiangshi zombie whose entire body is frozen like solid ice.

It is a very hard monster, but it is almost impervious to magic attacks and can even use poison attacks, so it is difficult to deal with if you are not properly prepared.

Since it was Ethan and I surrounding the dangerous monster from front to back and exchanging attacks back and forth, we seemed to have quite a bit of leeway for dealing with a boss monster.

‘If you prepare properly and deal with it, it’s not that difficult.’

The reason the body can be as hard as ice when suffering from poisonous blood is because of the poisonous blood flowing through the body.

In other words, by temporarily purifying the poisonous blood, even a hard corpse could be softened to the point where a sword could be inserted.

-Phew!

‘Kehehe!’

Toxic City let out a painful scream after being hit by my third dagger thrown using dagger throwing.

It was an item that I kept for a long time on my body, which was covered in a ‘healing aura’, and it was also a dagger with a ‘clean’ attached as a bonus, so its effectiveness is probably not something that can be underestimated.

Of course, I can’t kill Poisonous Blood City with this level of purification power, but all I did in the first place was support. Because now it was Ethan’s turn to strike the final blow against that guy.

“This is enough to end it, Master Ethan!”

“Uaaap… !!”

As soon as my signal is given, Ethan approaches Poison Blood City with great enthusiasm and delivers the final blow.

Ethan’s sword strike, which contained energy and magic power in a single sword as it required one precise strike, precisely cut the monster’s waist in two.

-Clap!

‘Kehehe… !!’

“Now is the time, Master Ethan!”

As soon as we confirmed that the guy’s body was separated into upper and lower body, Ethan and I threw the sealing magic stone out of our pocket.

Poisonous Blood City, which touched the sealing magic stone in a weakened state just before regeneration, appeared like the Giant Skeleton from before and was divided into two halves by Ethan and me and sealed.

‘Toxicity, you are mine!’

… I felt like shouting for no reason, so I held the magic stone in my hand and tried to express my feelings. Because the mechanism of throwing a seal stone to trap a monster is very similar to an animation I saw in my past life.

Well, since 『Luminor Academy』 is a game with such a large volume, it is inevitable that parodies and homages will appear in some events.

Somehow, I was able to successfully complete the second task, so I felt a sense of relief at the end of what had been a fairly difficult battle.

『Lilith has become level 34!』

… Still, I encounter boss monsters often, so it’s nice that I level up quickly.

In the case of poisonous blood, there is a condition that party members must have Lilith or Celista, so it would be difficult to deal with it unless you have a standard combination, but if you have Celista or Lilith, the difficulty of dealing with it drops exponentially.

Of course, even taking that into account, it was a hunt where the party raid of eight heroes was reduced to the limit with just two Ethan and I, so we had to face some difficulties.

Still, it was a splendid feat that Ethan achieved by properly utilizing the attack opportunity created by each of the three daggers with healing aura and clean effect.

“Phew. But today ended quickly, Lilith.”

“Yes. I’m glad we didn’t have to struggle like we did yesterday, Master Ethan.”

“I can rest a little more well today. Even though they say you have to move at night because of classes here, I think sleeping during the day is definitely not good for managing your physical condition.”

“I think so too, Master Ethan.”

If possible, I feel like I need to close my eyes for a little while when the sun is out to relieve fatigue.

Ethan is just like Ethan, but especially since I’ve become a morning person after working as a maid for a long time, I wasn’t that used to sleeping during the day.

“First, let’s ask Dina to prepare a meal as soon as we return. If you just eat lightly and take a leisurely shower before going to bed, you will probably be able to rest well until tomorrow afternoon… Sigh.”

“Master Ethan?!”

Ethan was in the middle of speaking when he suddenly groaned and wrapped his arms around himself.

I was also surprised to see his reaction, so I hurriedly walked over to Ethan and placed my palm on the left shoulder that he was holding.

“Master Ethan, are you okay?!”

“It’s okay, Lilith. Because it’s nothing in particular.”

“Your voice was nothing, Master Ethan. Please be honest.”

“… My left shoulder muscles feel a little throbbing. Maybe it happened because I held and moved the sword in a different way than I usually do… .”

“… … .”

Ethan usually wielded two swords, one in each hand, but in yesterday’s and today’s battles, Ethan only swung the sword with both hands for the final blow.

It was a moment when my heart was in a state of mixed emotions as he appeared to have suffered an injury to his shoulder, which could be said to be the lifeblood of a prosecutor.

‘If Cerista takes the same class, she will be able to receive treatment right away… .’

Unfortunately, Serista left to take another research class with the guy.

To make matters worse, there were no churches or clinics nearby, so there were no means of treating immediate injuries.

‘Wound recovery potions cannot treat torn muscles on the inside of the arm, and treating them with bandages and splints would also take a long time… .’

Since there was the last task left tomorrow, it had to be done by today if possible, but there were limited ways to treat Ethan’s shoulder.

With many worries ahead of us, it was Ethan and I who quickly returned to our dorm.
