Chapter 271 Country of Sakura, Cherin and Seven Holy Swords [42]

Beyond the bathhouse door, was a hot spring which perfectly suits what I would call a “secret hot spring”.

White steam rising from the clear water surface.

Vivid flurry of falling sakura petals lit by the sunset.

An open-air bath with a rock garden overflowing with natural atmosphere.

A magical scenery spread as if I had set foot into a different world.

「T-This is great!」

I never dreamed that there would be such a fine hot spring.

「Barararara, I know right! This is the best bathhouse in the world!」

Bacchus-san laughed in a good mood and sat down in the stool at the washing place.

「Come here, kid. Let’s wash our bodies quickly and enjoy the pleasant hot spring to the fullest!」

「Yes!」

We washed our bodies in the shower and then washed our heads.

A one-set shampoo and body soap were provided in the washing place. Both were made of simple soap.

(Come to think of it, this is a good chance.)

I wanted to have a proper talk with Bacchus-san.

It isn’t easy to get an opportunity to be alone with him.

(Zeon said, “Don’t get involved” but…)

He doesn’t look like a bad person to me at all.

(There is also the fact that he is Rose’s super-great grandfather.)

More than anything else, I didn’t feel any kind of “malice” when we crossed swords.

Pure and genuine was all I felt.

His desire to purely compare honest swordsmanship was transmitted through his slashes.

(All right, let’s ask him.)
