After we returned to Eric’s mansion and the women’s group come out from the bath, the men are finally able to enter the bath.
Just like yesterday, I quickly sit down on the bath chair, put my hand over the magic tools and pour the hot water into the bucket. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
I usually just pour the hot water immediately, but I may get more sunburn today compared to yesterday.
「I hope it won’t hurt that much today」
「It’s probably going to be fine today. We got the sunscreen cream from kaasan applied after all」
I kinda whine to Elna-kaasan and applied the sunscreen cream on me, but I wonder how effective this thing is.....
「But, today we were exposed to the sun longer than yesterday, and we also did such dramatic water splashing on each other you know」
「We certainly did those, but my face is not as red as yesterday, right?」
Sylvio-niisan says while pointing at his own face.
When I try to look at his face as he suggest, Sylvio-niisan’s face really didn’t look as red as yesterday. Rather, the more I look at him, the more I realize that this guy has well-shaped bishounen1 features.
I got annoyed at him for some reason, so I pour the hot water on Sylvio-niisan’s face and back.
「Waa! What’re you doing!」
「It’s an experiment to see if the sunscreen cream is effective or not. So it looks like there is nothing wrong with Sylvio-niisan for the time being」
If he had a normal sunburn, he should scream that it hurts before questioning my action.
If Sylvio-niisan is fine then I may also be fine.
……but, it’s a little scary so let’s just pour water onto the hot water and make it lukewarm. Now with this, the damage should be kept at a minimum even if it will become painful later on.
After making the preparation just to be sure, I properly hold the bucket and pour the water onto my head.
Ooh, it’s not as painful at all compared to yesterday.
Realizing that fact, this time I pour hot water into the bucket without mixing cold water and pour it just like before.
Then, I feel a little tingling sensation around my neck, but it looks like there is no problem with other areas. Maybe it’s because the cream on my neck was washed away by sweat or seawater, or the sunlight was too strong earlier. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「Ooh, as expected from the sunscreen Elna-kaasan insisted that it was expensive. Isn’t this quite effective?」
「You’re right. You don’t have to pour hot water on yourself while feeling nervous with this」
「Humph, saying you need something like sunscreen, how weak」
As we are talking about the greatness of the sunscreen, Eric pours hot water on himself before entering the bath while saying that.
「Come to think of it, Eric doesn’t look like you don’t get any sunburn whether today or yesterday」
「You think this kind of trifle will get me a sunburn?」
No no, it’s strange if the reason if ‘when there is a will, there is a way’-like mentality here, but Eric and Luna-san inherit the strong trait of the Lazur people from Natasha-san. That’s probably the reason they are strong against sunlight.
「Che, even though I’ll be able to pour hot water on Eric if he is also susceptible to sunburn」
「Even I also think trying to pour hot water on you today for sure, such a shame」
「Hey you, so the water you splashed on us yesterday out of goodwill was a preparation to splash hot water on us today!? 」
「Who would think of doing such a treacherous thing from the start? I was just thinking of having my revenge for the water arms」
So in other words, you were thinking of using the chance for payback after the water arm grabbed your leg? Or rather, don’t you think it’s treacherous enough for you to still hold a grudge over what happened yesterday?
You should just graciously let bygones be bygones. Despite it is just an arm of water......
「Fine, whatever. I’m going to clean my body thoroughly now, I don’t have the time to care about Eric anyway」
「That’s my line」
「Ahaha, we were being thrown around many times by our sisters after all」
Right, thanks to Egar-san’s advice, Eleonora-neesan started to use taijutsu halfway through our training. So I, Eric, and Sylvio-niisan ended up becoming a training target for Eleonora-neesan and got thrown around on the beach so many times, maybe it’s due to that advice.
And because of that, now our bodies are all covered in sand. I washed them off with water, but there is still some sand remaining on my hair, fingers, or under my nails.
Especially my hair, they are a formidable place. The sand that had gotten into my scalp must be removed gently. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
We carefully poured the hot water onto our heads to wash away the sand.
After that, we make foam from the hair soap and gently wash my hair.
After we wash my hair silently for some time, Eric opens his mouth and asks, perhaps he’s getting bored or something.
「But, what’s with that sister of yours.....」
「She’s a human, more or less. Though she just possesses an absurd strength」
「I never thought she was that strong to the extent that my aneue can’t do anything to her at all」
I roughly understand Eric’s feelings. From my - and Sylvio-niisan’s perspective - Eleonora-neesan and Nord-tousan’s strength is something natural for us, but I think it’s quite a shock for those who hadn’t seen them yet.
「It’s better if you just recognize them as creatures that are on a different level than us」
「I want to say ‘don’t lose hope’, but it’s better if you don’t think too deeply about their strength」
Sylvio-niisan looks like he also feels sympathy for him, and he speaks kind words to Eric.
「Setting Alfried’s view aside, it might be better to do as Sylvio-dono says. We can train with people who have that kind of skill. It’s fine if we can just continue to challenge ourselves and not feel down about it」
This guy, he only ignores my views on the topic.
Even though I don’t think my way of thinking is wrong.
I wash away the foam on my head while thinking like that.
After repeating it three times, the uncomfortable feelings on my head can no longer be felt so I quickly wash my body and enters the bathtub.
And after checking the temperature of the hot water, I slowly put my foot into the water.
「Aahh.....」
A quiet voice escapes me when I feel extremely comfortable feeling as I enter the bath.
The soles of my feet were tingling due to fatigue, but they were slowly starting to loosen.
Ahh, the exhaustion from the training feels like dissolving. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「Don’t make a sound like my father. You’re like an old man, y’know」
Eric then entered the bath while I’m still basking in the pleasant feeling from the bath and staring at the ceiling.
I made the same voice just as when Egar-san enters the bathtub? I feel like retorting to that, but the hot water feels so comfortable right now so it's just something I don’t need to care about at all now.
When people feel happy about something, they can feel calm about anything else. I think I can understand a part of the saying ‘a rich man never quarrels’.
As I’m enjoying the warmth of the hot water with a calm state of mind, Sylvio-niisan also entered the bathtub, guess he had finished washing his body.
「……fuu」
There was a *chapuri*2 sound, and then ripples spread on the water's surface. The undulating hot water caused by the ripples also feels nice.
I deeply sigh while putting my back and head to the edge of the bathtub.
「……I’m so tired from the training since early this morning」
「Yeah. We didn’t make it until the end of the training, unlike neesan and Luna-san」
「It’s normal when you consider the time, but the intensity of the training was unbelievable」
In the end, even Sylvio-niisan and Eric are also tired, they are saying that as if breathing a sigh.
「Or rather, does Eric’s family sometimes have training from morning until evening?」
「It’s not every day, but around twice a week」
「So it’s twice a week. So that’s why you have the stamina」
「We also do our training on the beach when our stamina is drained even at the best of times」
Doing training from morning until evening twice a week, that’s not a joker. If that were to be done in our house, I will firmly oppose it.
「If you aspire to be a knight, then this kind of training is normal」
「Even though we are not aiming to be a knight, Sylvio-niisan and I are also forced to follow this training regime, huh」
「Ahaha, but, this in itself is a good experience for us so it’s not a loss for us you know」
Sylvio-niisan cheers me up me while giving me a wry smile when I grumbled.
That’s certainly true, but I don’t want it since it’s long and tiring.
「But, they said that we will have magic training for half a day tomorrow, so it won’t be as tiring as today」
「Really? For me, I think that magic uses more of your sensitivity so it’s easier to be tired mentally」
Eric’s way of speaking seems similar to Eleonora-neesan. So this guy is the type who is not good with magic, the same as Eleonora-neesan.
「Ehー, is that so? But it’s easier to do rather than moving your body around pointlessly. If you have a proper image and control of the magic, you can cast the magic even when you’re sitting or lying down after all」
「Despite being a guy who finds swordsmanship to be bothersome, you don’t care about difficulties in that place, huh」
I have thoroughly experienced the difficulties of using magic since I was a child after all.
But, Elna-kaasan said that she will strictly teach me magic tomorrow. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
It may be a little difficult, but there might be new ways of using magic so I’m looking forward to tomorrow, even if it’s just a little.
