Chapter 905: Resort for Two - Final Part (1/2)

Wait, wait, this is strange. Something strange is happening here…… Eh? Could it be that I came to the wrong onsen and went to the one Sieg-san was supposed to be entering?

No…… but the person talking to me just now was obviously Sieg-san, so she knows I'm here, right?

As I was confused by what's suddenly happening, I heard the sound of hot water being poured and hurriedly turned my face away when I felt Sieg-san coming into the onsen.

[S- Sieg-san!? W- W- Why are you here?]

Asking this, I immediately looked down…… This onsen…… Alright! With the water being this whitish and cloudy, it should be safe…… No, can't really say there's anything safe about it.

[It was a surprise for me when I heard about it too…… but when we become lovers, we apparently need to take a bath together.]

[……Yes?]

[I remember hearing Luna talking about it to Lili once.]

[No, that is……]

The story certainly sounds familiar. Rather, isn't that the prank by Luna-san that Lilia-san actually suffered from…… so with Luna-san's punishment, I thought that ended things.

However, overhearing their conversation, in comes an unexpected Sieg-san!? I don't think she would be the type who would take such a conversation seriously……

With that thought in mind, I waited for Sieg-san to soak her body under the hot water, and turned around to see Sieg-san with a teasing smile on her lips.

That's the face of someone who knew that Luna-san was just speaking bullsh*t and was just going along with it.

[Errr, Sieg-san?]

[Well, honestly speaking…… I was just feeling a little bit of childish jealousy.]

[Unnn?]

[The last time we were at the beach, with the flow of conversation, an opportunity to ask about this unexpectedly appeared…… and I heard that everyone but me had taken a bath together with Kaito-san.]

[……Now that you mentioned it…… That really was the case.]

Thinking back about this, that really was the case. No, it's not like me taking a bath together with everyone was something I wanted to do, but I did remember taking a mixed bath at least once with everyone except Sieg-san.

[That's why, since this was a great opportunity…… but well, you know…… Of course, I'm feeling embarrassed……]

I think her having such an embarrassed look on her face was downright illegal. Moreover, her reason was an extremely lovable one…… one that I couldn't refuse at all.

[Errr, in that case…… Would you like to have a drink with me?]

[Yes!]

When I finally broke the ice and told her so, a really happy smile appeared on Sieg-san's lips.

[Also, even though it doesn't have shoulder straps, I'm currently wearing a swimsuit, so you don't have to be so nervous.]

[Ahh, I- I see……]

[Or perhaps…… Would you rather me not wear one?]

[N- No, that's not what I meant……]

[Fufufu.]

[Sieg-san!]

[I'm sorry. It was just that your reaction was somewhat interesting.]

Today's Sieg-san seemed to be a little impish. However, well, I was a little relieved that she was wearing a swimsuit. It still brought me a different kind of nervousness, but I would inevitably be conscious of her body if I knew she wasn't wearing one.

Feeling a little relieved, I took out a bottle of sake from my magic box and clinked glasses with Sieg-san.
