Chapter 26 (1/2)

The prostitution quarter she repeatedly mentioned she wanted to return to wasn't that far away

The prostitution quarter was opposite to the Ih wall and deepdistance

(Even though it's a luxury to go by horse carriage)

Rihaku, the bigas he held onto the horse's reins

So he could meet the prostitutes he yearned for, was it that sort of thing?

Those you call prostitutes should not be all counted as the same

Only those called favourites get a lot of customers Their value increases because of that

Just drinking a cup of tea with them will cost silvers The price is evenand the like

There are even those aates of the red-light district Even though those that become that are few in between

The Rokushoukan is well-established even within the royal capital's prostitution quarter It holds a selection of hest-class prostitutes

The ones who Maohest-class

She could see nostalgic scenery froe

The fragrant aroma from the shop of the kushi+yaki she wanted to eat spread across the street [T/N: grilled etable skewers]

Willow trees swayed along the ay The voices of firewood vendors rose

When they passed through the ate, a world covered in rich colours spreaded out

It was still dayti about, but prostitutes with free time waved their hands over the handrails on the second floor

The horse carriage stopped in front of the roukaku with a conspicuous large gate [T/N: a , like a paGoda]

”What is this, it's has been a while You foolish girl”

A shock ran through the pit of her stomach

How many times in the past did she vomit back out excessive poison like this?

Rihaku, as a good person at heart, stroked Mao on

His face said, ”The hell is this hag?”

She covered the polluted ground with dirt using her toes

Rihaku, as next to her, looked at Maomao in concern

”Huest?”

She appraised Rihaku with her eyes

The horse carriage was entrusted to the shop's manservant

”Good physique Looks are also handsome Doesn't he look like the pro?”

”Grand that in front of the person?”

The norance and called for the kairls who acted as assistance to prostitutes]

”Call for Pairin Today, we grind tea” [T/N: turning tea into powder, like how you would prepare matcha powder”

”Pairin…”

Rihaku sed audibly

That was the prostitute whose name was known as a talented dancer

For the sake of Rihaku's honour, it should be said that this isn't a sihts of longing

It was an honour for hiether for tea, to meet the idol from above the clouds with his own eyes

(Pairin huh, it ht possibly be possible)

”Rihaku-sama”

Maohts

”Do you have confidence on your biceps?”

”I train my body but I'm not too sure?”

”Is that so Please do it well”
