CH 135.1
Chapter 135 Smiling Vacation ③ Part 1
“Neee, neee, Cry-chan. Why don’t we go slay the Onsen Dragon together? It looks like there is a nest nearby.” (Liz)
“Eh…… I won’t go, though……” (Cry)
I was relaxing in my room when Liz’s sweet voice instantly brought me back to my senses.
What even is an Onsen Dragon…… The person who named it was way too irresponsible.
The inn that Sytry had chosen was indeed an inn for rich merchants, they have high-quality furniture inside.
The room was spacious, the bedding was soft and the food, though not enough for a Hunter like Liz and the others, was sumptuous, with plenty of delicacies from the mountains and the seas.
The Onsen seems to be directly flowing from the source, and even if there are large communal baths, each room has an outdoor bath, and although I haven’t taken a bath yet, if I wanted to I could spend a whole day comfortably without leaving my room.
Why do I have to go and kill an Onsen Dragon from the very first day…
Maybe because of Sytry’s lap pillow or maybe because I had slept for a moment, my energy was back. However, that energy can only be used for me to get into an Onsen. Energy I can’t waste.
“Eeeeh? Even though they are big games…… Cry-chan, what did you come here for?” (Liz)
I have been thinking about it lately, but every time I go out, there are too many big games around me……
Even though she should have moved around the town a lot more than I did during my afternoon stroll, my petite childhood friend was still full of energy.
Liz bent her lips, grabbed my arm, and shook it. It is troublesome because, without Luke and the others, Liz has no playmate except me. If it is a plaything, she has Tino, though ――.
“Just so you know, I have no intention of doing anything meaningful here! I am just going to eat, sleep, sit in an Onsen for two weeks and let time pass.” (Cry)
“So…. You are saying that you have already taken action, right?” (Sytry)
“Eh? ………… Un, un, you are right. Everything is going according to the plan.” (Cry)
Sytry quickly follows up on my pitiful declaration.
Not sure if I have taken any action or not, but…… Well, a lot has happened, but in general, my vacation plan hasn’t changed that much.
Onsen. An onsen is right in front of me. Everything else doesn’t matter. Let’s forget about Arnold, the White Sword Gathering, and the nomination requests for now. I will leave everything to the future me.
Before I knew it, Sytry had changed from her usual robe to a blue yukata1 with floral patterns.
The amount of exposure hasn’t increased a lot, but her appearance was refreshing and somewhat sensual, maybe because of the contrast between the usual thick robes she wore. The yukata looked as if it was custom-made, partly because of her good posture.
Sytry was undoubtedly the one with the most burden during this vacation. I really want you to, at least, stretch your wings once before the very end.
By the way, there was also a Yukata for men, but unfortunately, I can’t wear a Yukata because I have Relics all over my body. Life comes first. I wear rings even when I take a bath, you know.
“Syt, when did you change your clothes? Ah? What about mine? Don’t tell me you changed your clothes to approach my Cry-chan?” (Liz)
“Moooh, don’t lump me together with you, Onee-chan! I won’t do that! To begin with, I have said it many times, but Cry-san doesn’t belong to Onee-chan…… You can get a Yukata if you ask the innkeeper, so why don’t you get one?” (Sytry)
“…… You know, Liz, you can’t throw kicks if you wear a Yukata?” (Cry)
At Sytry’s rebuttal and me pointing this out, Liz made a difficult look. Putting aside whether or not she will have the chance to throw kicks in an Onsen, she has always hated hard-to-move outfits.
Her pupil, Tino might have wanted to try it on, she was looking around from the side, *sowasowa* fidgeting.
“There aren’t many people today, so I am sure we will have the whole Onsen to ourselves.” (Sytry)
“That’s nice.” (Cry)
I don’t care that much if there were other customers, but if there were none then…… I might be able to swim2!!
Above all, the fact that there are not many people here means that there is less chance for Liz to get into conflict with someone. Liz and Sytry are pretty girls, so when they stay at an inn like this, there was a high probability that they would be asked out (And then, Liz would beat them up). Well, in a sense, they got what they deserved, but the less damage there is, the better.
Then, I remembered that I had something I absolutely needed to check with Sytry.
“By the way, what happened to Black-san and his friends? They weren’t there when we were eating……” (Cry)
“As Cry-san ordered, I got a room for them. Food should also have been served to them. I don’t care about the rest.” (Sytry)
That’s harsh…… But if they are staying at the same inn, we may see each other later.
Next time, I shall remove their collars and release them.

“Master…… Well…… How is it?” (Tino)
As if Tino made up her mind, she spun around and timidly inquired.
She was dressed in a navy blue Yukata. She removed the ribbon she always used to bind her hair, making the contrast between her white skin and the navy blue fabric glamorous. She was dressed wonderfully, I wondered if she had gotten help from Sytry.
When we became adults, we came to the Imperial Capital and met Tino, when she was only ten. So, I can’t help but look at her as a child, but when I look at her like this, no matter how I look at her, she is a fine adult. Some parts grew even more than Liz.
Speaking of which, surprisingly our ages are only four or five years apart……
I wondered why she looked so glamorous, even though, unlike Sytry, she was less exposed than usual. Tino blushed as I was carefully observing her.
“Un, it looks good on you. It is cute, cute…… To the point where it is too good for me to be the only one watching you.” (Cry)
I have also given a lot of trouble to Tino. So, I gave a slightly exaggerated compliment, but Tino turned even redder and turned her eyes away.
Her lips were tightly pressed together, but it was clear from her expression that she was pleased with my compliment.
" "
Liz doesn’t praise people that much, so maybe it was just right for me to praise her a lot.
“Nyo3 way, Master…………” (Tino)
“Cry-san, no matter how cute Ti-chan is, it is rude to *jirojiro* stare at her.” (Sytry)
“!?” (Cry)
Sytry stepped forward as if to defend Tino who was *mogomogo* mumbling and losing vocabulary.
Was that how it was……. No, indeed… I might have been rude to her. Rather than a man like me, a woman like Sytry would understand Tino’s feelings better.
Tino is not only my Kouhai4, but also Sytry’s Kouhai. Sytry is younger than me, which means she is closer in age to Tino, so for her, Tino is practically her Imouto5.
“Anooo…… Sytry Onee-sama, I am not particularly ――” (Tino)
“Are you alright? Cry-san doesn’t mean to offend you. Ti-chan. I will protect you. To begin with, Cry-san, before saying anything to Ti-chan…… Don’t you have anything to say to me?” (Sytry)
…… You don’t need to be so direct.
It might be a little joke on her part, but she is right. Even among close friends, it is said that there are etiquettes. Once again, I looked at Sytry’s entire body.
Multiple white flowers pattern on a deep blue background. It goes well with Sytry, who initially has a calm atmosphere. Her appearance was tidy, pretty, and somehow sensual.
Needless to say, Sytry’s dress was perfect.
The higher the Level Treasure Hunters are, the more attractive they become. Mana Material doesn’t just enhance physical strength and magical power. It doesn’t change your face, but they become different. There are multiple anecdotes about Hunters who place an especially high emphasis on their beauty, giving them a demonic charm, allowing them to overthrow great nations.
The innkeeper’s line of sight was right when he looked at me. I don’t suit her, to be correct, I, who couldn’t absorb Mana Material, don’t suit Sytry.
" "
If I hadn’t seen her grow up close, I might have easily fallen in love with her. Well, she was completely out of my league though.
It is just that there are so many beautiful men and women in our Clan……
“Sorry, sorry…… Sytry, you look very beautiful too. I like your appearance in your usual robe, but it is also great seeing you in a Yukata.” (Cry)
It was a feast for the eyes. Her tidy and clean atmosphere was particularly nice. If you let me take a picture, I am sure Anthem, who dearly loves his sisters, would be very happy. You compared our charm, we are as different as day and night.
I complimented her using my limited vocabulary, but Sytry gave me a reproachful look. Before I could open my mouth, she took a step forward, got closer, put her hands on my back, and stuck tightly against me.
TL notes:
Thanks for reading!
If I remember it right, Cry and co are 20-22-ish. so Tino is 16-18. But I so want to see why Tino wanted to become a Hunter and want to join Strange Grief!
Cry, Sytry wants a better compliment than that, or she will become jealous of Tino. And that will be bad for Tino XD
Also, need cute Tino and Sytry in yukata pic!
Tchao à plus!
