Chapter 1469 - Captivating Relaxation Room ⑨

For the time being, I just finished washing Illness-san and proceeded to wash the rest of my own body next, and the next step was finally the bath…… I still hadn’t decided where I was gonna start though. There are many kinds of baths, and all of them look good. Hmmm……Alright, I’ve made up my mind! I decided to start with a simple jacuzzi.

I think it would be better to start with the jacuzzi and the ultrasonic baths, then take a waterfall shower if I felt like it, then relax in the aromatic bath, before finally taking a long soak lying down in the lie-down bath.

[Illness-san, I’m thinking of entering the jacuzzi first…… Errr, Illness-san, would you like to go in with me?]

[Yeees. Well theeeeen, I’ll be joining youuuu.]

I’m still questioning about this, but what kind of support would she even provide here in the bath other than helping me wash my body? No, I guess I won’t necessarily be supported in all baths, only in the ones that required her support? I guess I would need some courage to enter that electric bath or those like that by myself……

Also, I guess there’s a possibility that she’s there to prepare drinks for me? Well, I feel like if I don’t say anything, she would probably just be standing there next to the bath, so I just decided to ask her if she wanted to join me.

That alone seemed like a rather bold offer, but in fact, the bathtubs here are designed for multiple people, so there was no problem with my invitation at all.

Anyhow, we moved to the first bath, the jacuzzi, and soaked ourselves in the hot water. The feeling of bubbles rising from the water is quite pleasant. Jacuzzi baths are rare unless you go to a super bathhouse or establishments like that, so they’re very precious

No, there may be some people who own jacuzzis at home but……

[It feels good. I feel like my fatigue was being taken away.]

[Yeees. This is quite interesting, isn’t iiiiiit?]

[Ahh, I guess jacuzzis didn’t originally exist in this world?]

[Perhaaaaaps, it may exist somewheeeeere. If you add this kind of functionalityyyyy, the price of a magic tool will inevitably go up considerablyyyyy, so it may be difficult for those who aren’t wealthyyyyy.]

Many magic tools that only have one formula engraved on them are relatively cheap, but having multiple formulas engraved on a single magic tool seems to be quite pricey.

Having multiple formulas makes the effect that much more effective, but just as Illness-san said, it would be difficult for a person of a certain level of wealth to spend a considerable amount of money for a jacuzzi function in their bath.

As was the case with Kaori-san, I think many people buy only the minimum amount of magic tools because of their effectiveness.

[Now theeeen, I can’t just relax around like thiiiis, so it’s about time I provide my suppooooort.]

[……Errr, I’ve been wondering about that actually. What kind of support do you provide in the bath other than washing my body?]

[I will now give you a light lymphatic massaaaaaage. If I do it while you’re taking a baaaaath, it will help you relieve your fatiiiiiigue.]

[Ahh, I see!]

[Howeveeeeer, if I were to do it too muuuuuch, you may get dizzy when you get out of the baaaaath, so I would limit the massage to gentle caresseeees.]

I see, massage while bathing huh. That certainly sounds effective. Illness-san is really good at massaging, so that really feels like it would relieve my fatigue.

As for the danger of getting dizzy if this were to be overdone, I guess that may be due to the difference in temperature if the blood circulation becomes too good. Well, I guess I can just leave moderating it to Illness-san.

[Well then, I’m in your care.]

[Yeeees. Understoooood. Well theeeeen, if you’ll excuse meeeee.]

[…………….!?]

Wait, what just happened? I’m kinda feeling some soft things touching my back right now though? Wait, wait, let’s calm ourselves here, let’s get the situation straight.

I asked Illness-san to give me a massage. So far, so good. Illness-san nodded her head and came up behind me, and bringing her hands in front of my neck, she’s now hugging me from behind.

I’m in a swimsuit now. In other words, I’m in a state where my skin is bare with no cloth on my back. I don’t think I even need to imagine what that feeling and warmth from the thin cloth behind me…… No, wait! Seriously, what’s going on!!!?

[Well theeeen, I’ll start with a collarbone massaaaaaage.]

[……Ahh, I suppose so. Yes, collarbone. Collarbones are important after all.]

What the heck was I thinking? Illness-san was purely intending to give me a massage, and she doesn’t hold any other intention. Due to Illness-san’s physique, it would be better if she wraps her hands from behind me in order to massage my collarbone efficiently.

But you see, Illness-san…… Men are simple creatures. If a beautiful and kind older woman in a swimsuit hugged us from behind, even if things just turned that way because of other reasons, we’d misunderstand, wondering if she was interested in us. I guess this is just part of a sorrowful characteristic of a man.

(T/N: Characteristic here is expressly written as さが, so I guess you could also read it as this just being part of a sad man’s saga.)

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [No, she is interested in you! She’s got a lot of interest in you! W- Well, with Kaito’s point of view, I guess that would happen huh? ……Personally though, it’s just sweet and painful……]

? ? ? : [Oh, Senpai revived.]

Makina : [When her white chocolate form melted, she spawned out from the puddle of chocolate? Her whole body looked complete and she’s even wearing clothes…… Then, where did the white chocolate I’m using for my fondue come from? ……Omnom.]
