Chapter 425: Seemed Very Womanly to Me (1/2)
Could it be that I was rude to the God of Bathing or something like that in a previous life? Otherwise, why am I always in a predicament like this when I enter a bathroom……
The bathroom should be a place where we wash our mind, a place where we heal ourselves. It's not a place where we play a mental chicken game, nor is it a place for one's reasoning to strain to the point of boiling over.
Behind me, currently sitting on a wooden chair, was the ”almost naked” Lillywood-san. The only thing hiding Lillywood-san's body was her hair-turned leaves…… Arehh? What is this? I didn't see her body firsthand, but thinking about how she's hiding her important parts with her hair…… it’s a little too perverted……
Or rather, in the first place, I wonder if Lillywood-san's melon-like breasts can really be hidden just by her hair. I mean, even if her breasts were hidden, with their size, I would still be able to see everything underneath……
”Kaito-san.”
[I'm sorry!!!]
”……Eh? Why did you suddenly apologize?”
[Ah, n- no! It's nothing!]
Calm down, stop being so excited. The more I imagine strange things, the more I'm strangling myself. Empty my mind, free myself from obstructive thoughts…… Unnn? Arehh??
Why is there a ”tree growing next to me”?
[E- Errr, Lillywood-san? If I'm not seeing things, it kinda feels like a tree's growing next to me, you know?]
”Yes, The fruit of this tree is soft and suitable for washing the body.”
[I- I see.]
……A loofah? No, a tawashi huh……
(T/N: Both are vegetables used to scrub.)
After listening to Lillywood-san's explanation, I touched the fruit growing on the tree and felt its squishy and soft elasticity.
Its skin was a little rough, but that's why it felt like a sponge, looking easy to use.
”Well then, I will start washing your back, okay?”
[I- I will be in your care.]
”I don't have much experience in doing this, so please let me know if I missed anything.”
When Lillywood-san calmly said this, the fruit she was holding was pressed against my back and she slowly scrubbed my back with her gentle hands.
Hmmm. It has a nice elasticity to it and feels pretty good. It also feels like it's foaming well. This plant is pretty good……
While I was thinking about this, I surrendered myself to the comfort of having my back rubbed…… but for some reason, the elastic things that were pressed against my back had ”increased”.
Arehh? I wonder if Lillywood-san decided to use another sponge? The new sponge feels smooth and soft. However, something kind of strange though? It was barely moving, you know? No, they were moving up and down a little bit, but she wasn't using it as much as the other sponge. Also, it seems to be ”a lot bigger” than the sponge she used first……
[……Ummm, Lillywood-san?]
”Yes? Are you feeling itchy somewhere?]
[Ah, no, I didn't mean that…… I'm sorry if I misunderstood. However, ummm…… Is your ”chest touching my back” by any chance?]
”Yes, I'm sorry about that. I can't really change the size of my body like Kuromueina or Shalltear……”
[……………….]
I felt the blood rush to my head at once when she nonchalantly said those words.
Eh? That means, errr, this…… T- The smooth and elastic thing touching my back were Lillywood-san's hair-turned leaves…… a- and Lillywood-san's……
”Errr, where's the container for washing the body…… there it is. Ah, excuse me.”
[ ! ? ! ? ]
Lillywood-san reached out to pick up a wooden bucket that was placed a short distance away from us, and something squishy pressed against my back.
Aaaahhhh!? They're pressing against me! Those extremely soft lumps of elasticity were being squashed against my back!
”Well then, I'll wash you down, okay?”
[……Yesh.]
