We returned to the city in an awkward atmosphere.

The reason, of course, is Cain and Lisa.

After Cain brought up the subject of training, Lisa became depressed as if the world had ended.

“Sorry, I’ll stop here… .”

Cain said this while standing a step away from us, without entering the city.

No, I’m only going to stay for a day, why now…!

“… Do I really have to go?”

Lisa looked at him with sad eyes, but his eyes were already filled with determination.

“Yeah. I found out today. I’m still so weak and immature.”

“But… .”

“I’ll definitely come back. When I come back… Lisa, I’ll become a knight who can protect you.”

“Cain… .”

I took Karin with me and quietly stepped aside because I was trying to film a romance between just the two of us.

“What’s wrong? It’s just starting to get fun… .”

“Don’t disturb me.”

And after 10 minutes, they hugged once and parted ways.

He even had sex with me, but with Lisa, he only hugged me once… .

No, that doesn’t matter!

I quickly chased away the unpleasant thoughts that occurred to me.

That’s an accident.

Yeah, accident.

“… Lisa, are you okay?”

“Yeah… I’m, uh… okay… .”

Her tearful expression was not okay to anyone, but we were perceptive people so we pretended not to notice.

“Then… shall we report tomorrow?”

“No, let’s do it right now… It’s important.”

No, if we bring a crying woman in, we’ll look weird…

But we didn’t want to show that we were worrying about something, so we awkwardly went to the guild and explained the whole story.

The guild receptionist looked at Lisa with pity in her eyes, suggesting that she had misunderstood something, but she did not bother to correct her.

“Haam… Asia, are you awake?”

“Ugh… Yes. My whole body hurts.”

Maybe it was because I had been running dungeons all day, but my body was aching.

Should I just rest today?

A lot has happened in one day.

I explored the underground caves in search of the kidnapped Cain, and killed the culprit of the incident… I couldn’t do it, but I solved it anyway.

Was this the original story or was it something we forced into it?

We don’t know, but the important thing is that the system has acknowledged our actions.

Yes, chapter 2 is finally finished.

It was long….

“Well, you’ve definitely had a hard time. I think it’d be better to just rest today, Asia.”

“That, right?”

As expected from Karin!

A thief… no, a thief with quick wit!

“So, don’t you want to go to the bathhouse, Asia?”

“Where are you?”

baths.

I don’t know the exact details, but this game was made in Japan.

As a nation obsessed with the idea of loving baths to an unusual degree, they always make sure to include modern bathhouses even in games with a fantasy setting.

And of course, there is a bathhouse in the game, so there is no way there won’t be a scene.

“It’s not like it’s mixed bathing, or the men’s and women’s baths change every hour, or there’s a hole in it, right?”

“Why, why are you so sensitive?”

Well, that can’t be helped!

Because it’s always like this!

Lisa, who I met by chance on the street, nodded after hearing what I said.

“Surprisingly, Asia is very cautious. Yes, accidents happen often. But don’t worry. This is a safe place.”

“Really?”

Can I trust you?

“Yeah, I use it a lot too, but nothing weird has happened yet.”

“Then let’s go!”

In fact, there is no need to take risks and go to the bathhouse.

This isn’t a game with a cleanliness system, and if you don’t bathe, your body won’t get dirty or smelly or anything.

Still, there are reasons why you should go to the bathhouse.

Because Karin and Lisa are here…!

This is your chance to legally admire their naked bodies!

“Hee, heehee… heeheehee.”

“Why is it like that?”

“Don’t worry about it, it happens sometimes.”

I chuckled and went to the bathroom.

“Um… .”

First of all, the appearance passes.

It’s not so shabby or flashy that it warrants a review.

The interior is strangely modern, but I like it because it’s comfortable.

“Three women.”

These words made my heart pound a little.

Three girls.

Yeah, three girls… Yeah… .

“Let’s go in, the women’s bath is this way.”

“Oh, yes!”

That’s that, and this is this.

I stepped into the women’s bath with a pounding heart.

A new world…!

“There’s no one.”

“Well, time is time.”

It’s a bit of a shame.

No, but isn’t it fortunate that there are no grandmothers?

I followed them, hesitant.

“Then… are you taking it off now?”

“Huh? Then it will go in.”

Karin looked at me with a face that said, “Why are you asking such a useless thing?” and then smiled faintly.

“Asia, is this your first time here?”

“Oh… Oh, yes! Sa, actually, this is my first time!”

At those words, Lisa, who was taking off her one-piece dress, looked back at me.

Wow, it’s breasts! Real breasts…!

But why is there no bra?

“What? Really?”

“Aishia is an ice elf from the far north.”

“Huh?”

Ah, ahh… .

“I’ll tell you later! It’s not a very interesting story!”

Lisa is a wizard, so she might know this kind of story!

I quickly covered Karin’s mouth before her lies were exposed.

“Ah, yeah… This is the first time I’ve heard of an ice elf. Be sure to ask me later.”

Phew, that’s a relief.

I then had a five-minute lecture on bathhouse etiquette from Lisa and Karin.

Well, it’s the same in reality or in a game.

“Got it? No running, no diving, no playing in the water… .”

“No, that’s not that kid?”

“Oh, that’s right.”

“Sometimes I forget.”

I was slightly shocked by the two of them talking nonchalantly.

Do I look like a child?

Knock knock!

They opened the door to the women’s bathhouse with their bodies covered with towels, but as expected, there was no one inside.

“It’s not as surprising as you thought?”

Well, it’s a scenery I’ve seen a lot… .

I’ve seen it so many times in games and in real life that I’m not particularly impressed.

Even though the fact that I’m actually stepping into the women’s bathhouse makes my heart race, it doesn’t really feel real because there are only us.

No, but where is that?

Karin and Lisa are naked next to me!

Pseudo-harem…!

“Hehehe… .”

“Stop laughing weirdly and come in quickly.”

Lisa went into the water first and called me with a happy, relaxed face.

“Yes!”

This is happiness.

I smiled broadly and snuggled up next to her, savoring the warm water and her body temperature.

This is a night game…!

“Sigh… .”

I leaned back and let my body sink into the warm water.

I’m bathing in this flavor.

It feels like all the fatigue that has built up over time has been washed away.

Lisa and Karin were also enjoying their bath.

It feels good to rent a large bathroom, doesn’t it?

There’s nothing particularly suspicious about the hole, and the owner of the bathhouse is a grandmother, so I feel reassured.

If it were my grandfather, he would have definitely dug a hole or something, but my grandmother wouldn’t have done that!

There are cases where women allow men to invade their sleep, but at least this old lady didn’t seem to be that type.

As expected, Lisa’s recommendation is trustworthy!

***

Contrary to my fears, we enjoyed our bath happily without any incident.

“Whew, that felt good.”

“I hope you come again next time.”

We dried our wet hair, got dressed, and went back outside, but for some reason, some fat men were sitting on chairs and staring at us.

“… Hehe.”

“Quite a bit of volume… .”

A lot of talk.

Watching them gossip among themselves gives me a strange feeling.

What? There was definitely nothing suspicious?

“What are you doing? Let’s go.”

Lisa and Karin looked at me with innocent faces, as if they had no suspicions at all.

“… Yes.”

Hey, no way, no.

I checked several times to make sure there were no holes.

Those guys are probably just old men who enjoy taking baths and seeing pretty women.

I decided to believe that.

Even if I say no, what difference will it make now?

It’s much better to just rationalize to yourself that nothing happened.

Instead, I left the bathhouse, vowing never to come back again.

***

And the very next day, I was confronted with a terrifying side of the gaming world.

“Asia, what are you looking at?”

“… … .”

I stopped by a general store for maintenance and was speechless when I saw the bottles displayed in the corner.

[New Product!]

[Asia’s Bath]

[Karin’s Bath]

[Lisa’s Bath]

The label had a crude drawing of our appearance along with our name.

“Huh? That’s….”

“Wow, whoa! No! Let’s buy some potions quickly!”

Oh, I shouldn’t show her this kind of thing!

It was too terrifying for the still innocent Karin to see.

I was worried that she might die from shock, so I decided to hide the existence of this terrifying holy beast.

“Huh? I just bought everything… .”

“Then, Karin, I have something to talk to the owner here for a moment, so would you like to leave first?”

“Huh? If that’s the case, then I’ll go with you… .”

“Please.”

Karin looked puzzled, but when I smiled and asked her, she obediently complied.

Left alone, I approached the general store owner and spoke.

“Bring that.”

When the shop owner looked embarrassed, I spoke again.

“Come on.”

As he shivered and brought bath water, I picked up the bottles one by one in front of him and broke them one by one.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

“If you do this one more time, I’ll kill you.”

“Heeek… Yes, yes… .”

I gave him a final warning as he trembled and went outside.

“I heard a loud noise… Are you okay?”

“Nothing happened.”

“Oh, really?

Yeah, nothing happened.

Evil was defeated and the world was at peace again.

I did this good deed today without telling anyone.
