Chapter title: Bathing

「How was it?」

Serena comes up to me as I leave the tent.

Behind her were a group of adventurers, including Russell-san, who were looking at us.

「Kuzmigo will be punsihed in the kingdom.」

Everyone rejoiced at my report. It’s no wonder he was the only one to run before the Arch Demon.

「Also, I have assured that Russell-san will be promoted to a soldier because he was particularly active in this defeat.」

At these words, Russell-san’s party members clenched their fists and revealed their joy.

「Wait, wait a second! The one who was most active was you, Elt! And Serena was the one who stopped the arc demon’s movement, right?」

Russell-san came forward with a panicked look.

「That’s not true Russel-san」

I say to Mr. Russell, whose expression is contorted, as if he thought he had taken the credit.

「I’m not just talking about defeating the Ark Demon, you know. You cared for the other adventurers along the way and were the first to stand up when the arc demon appeared. It was because of you that we were motivated to fight it.」

It’s true that I’m the one who defeated the Arc Demon, but Russell-san’s actions up to now should be appreciated.

「That’s right, Russell-san! Please accept the offer!」

「I know you’ve always wanted to be a soldier!」

The other adventurers cheered Russell-san on. Then Russell-san scratched his cheek and said…….

「Don’t say anything else, you’ll embarrass me.」

He turned his face away from everyone, looking embarrassed. It looks like he’s ready to take the job.

「The adventurer’s guild is losing a great senior member……」

There were still some things I wanted to learn from him, but there was no othetr choice. I narrowed my eyes and looked at Mr. Russell, who was being teased by everyone.

「But you’re going to have a great soldier instead. I think Russell-san will be a wonderful soldier that the people of the city will love.」

Serena, who must have heard my words, happily came next to me.

As usual, Serena brings her body close to mine. I think that I’ve gotten used to this distance lately…….

「Nn?」

Serena jumped away in a panic and distanced herself from me. And then………

「E, Elt. You smell so bad!」 1

She accused me with tears in her eyes.

「Oh, that’s right…」

The smell seemed to have gotten on me when Kuzmigo approached me.

「I don’t want to hug Elt right now! There’s a spring over there, you should go take a bath.」

Serena’s cold words made me resent Kuzmigo, but I headed for the spring.



「The water is so clear it feels good.」

Princess Alice and Alicia were bathing in the fountain. 2

「Was it all right, then?」

Today was the day the survey team would be returning. Alicia was curious about the results.

「I’m sweating from swinging my sword, and I don’t want to stay in the tent until the end, because then we won’t know what we’re doing here.」

The fact that she had hired a survey team meant that she was fulfilling her role.

However, she noticed Alicia’s expression darkening as the deadline approached.

Princess Alice decided that it would be better to take her outside for a change, even if it was just for a short while.

「But, Alice. Aren’t you too defenseless?」

The princess of a country is exposing her naked body in a spring like this, what if someone peeps in?

「It’s all right. I’ve activated a cognitive blocking spell to prevent people from entering.」 3

Alicia compares her own body to Princess Alice’s, who shows off her proportions for all to see. This is the first time that she has ever seen such a thing.

「You have a beautiful body, too. I’m generally toned because I wield a sword, but a soft body like yours is more attractive to men.」

In fact, when you put Princess Alice and Alicia side by side, there is no difference, both have bodies that attract men.

As Princess Alicia said, the rest would be a matter of taste.

「Is that true…?」

「Well, if you doubt me, why don’t we both stand in front of Elt-san? And if Alicia gets chosen, then I win, right?”」

「That means that if I lose, Elt will be taken!」

Alicia’s face turns pale with disgust. Princess Alice laughs at Alicia, but……..

「What’s going on?」

Alicia noticed Princess Alice’s serious face.

She waded through the water, picked up her sword, and hurriedly put on her cloak.

「Someone has broken through the barrier.」 4

Alicia was surprised by these words. She is one of the most talented women in the kingdom, and her magic skills are top-notch.

「Who could it be?」

「At least it’s not the knights from the base.」

She know what they are capable of. They aren’t capable of breaking through Princess Alice’s wards.

「Alice-sama, I will cover for you.」

Alicia then put on her cloak, but..

「You should go back to the base and get someone, just in case.」

She don’t know who he is, but if someone broke through the barrier, she must be the one who’s after. 5

She had an idea, and wanted additional forces.

Alicia realizes that there is no point in telling Princess Alice any more at a time like this…….

「Yes! I’ll get the others right away.」

She trusted Princess Alice and left the place….



TL: Okay, I’ve got so confused which is which (Their names are so damn similar…)
