Chapter 9 (1/2)

Nikola chose the nue

On top of that, the room is wide, it’s the best inn

Because of that, the cost is high, but you can’t scrimp on a trip

That is hter, Orphe has inherited that notion

The nape and the upper part of their breasts are visible, Otou-san’s a little worried

If my cute Orphe and Nikola wear this, insolent men will become beasts

「Uwaa, Sla-chan, we can see a waterfall from theIt’s beautiful, isn’t it」

「Pyui!」

There is a large river near this hot springs village

A little steas probably escapes from that river

「Orphe-nee, should we get in the hot springs first? Or should we eat?」

「Mn I’ll inform the proprietress」

It’s an expensive roo hall to eat, but the food will be carried to our room

On top of that, it’s a full courseforward to it

「Nikola, about the order」

「Pyuui♪」

Of course, I will eat and drink sake as well

Thank goodness I still retained reatest pleasure of life

「Well then, Sla-chan, Nikola, let’s go to the hot springs」

「Pyu!」

Thus, the two people and one slime exited the room

The other party looked at us…… no, at Orphe, and opened her eyes widely

「Orphe-sama! It’s been a while I feel that it is fate that we met in such a place」

As if she was a friendly puppy, the young lady with a sakura-coloured hair rushed over to Orphe

She is a young lady in her early teens, wearing luxurious clothes Awfully cute and lovable

「Oh my, Mikohime-sama It’s been a while」 (TLN: Miko – ShrineEnglish word, so if there are no good suggestions, this is what I will use from now on)

Orphe’s expression crareeted

「Mikohime-sama is too reserved You can call me Elesia, just like before」

This kid is this country’s Third Princess

Especially Elesia, she inherited extremely thick blood, and has been worshi+pped as the Mikohime

However, she has too much talent

That is why, she was left in ht her the way to completely use her power She becas to Orphe, who had been entrusted with the duty of caretaker at that time

「I cannot possibly do that Since others will be watching」

Behind Elesia are six knights tasked with escort

Because they are the escorts of the Mikohime, all of them are warriors with each a match for a thousand

「Please don’t say such lonesos I want you to call me like in the past」

「It’s a promise! Orphe-sama’s cake is fluffy and sweet, I wanted to eat it for so, so long!」

「Yes I’ll put allit」

Orphe smiled

Elesia ht from Orphe to Nikola

「Nikola Long ti makeup as usual, are you?」

「It’s such a waste, you’re cute, after all Please dress up a little」

Saying that, she handed over the ribbon she had fastened on her hair to Nikola

As expected of a princess’ item, it’s of fine quality Moreover, it’s worn by a miko for many years, so it absorbed the holy essence and has becoeously high price

「Thanks anyway」

「Nikola’s as uncute as usual」

Elesia adores Orphe like an elder sister, and loves Nikola like a younger one

Although Nikola is a year older than her, since Nikola looks like a little girl, Elesia treats her like a younger sister

「Mikohi to request of you Please keep the fact that Nikola and I came here a secret If possible, it would help if you tell that to your escorts as well」

「Understood! I will keep this a secret Well then, I shall be onjob to do from now on!」

Now that she hts are all heavily armed

She turned her back on us and started walking, but stopped on the way

「……I’m sorry for Merlin-oji-sama Next time, please let me offer some silent prayers」

Orphe was at a loss for words, and made a sorrowful expression

I see, Elesia doesn’t know about the fatty upstart’s reckless actions, huh

「Yes, Otou-san will surely be happy」

Thus, we separated with Elesia

A job that requires even the Mikohime, the most important person in the country

……They probably ca suspicious

We finally arrived at the hot springs

The hot springs here are divided into two types, open air bath and the other with a roof

We went to the open air bath, according to Orphe’s wish

Fortunately we reserved it I feel a little lucky

An elegant bathtub made of stone, and on top of that, a scent peculiar to that of a hot spring

Orphe and Nikola cleansed their bodies with hot water before entering the bathtub

Of course, I aed by Orphe

I have a duty as a father to protect hters

「Hauuuu, this hot spring is good As expected of the town fas」

「It seeood for beauty They say that skin will become smooth」

「Pyuーiー」

Both of they is drawn out from their bodies

I’h I a smooth

「Sla-chan, does it feel good for you too?」

「That’s good」

Orphe hugged th into her arms

The hot spring feels good, but Orphe feels good as well As expected, a real hot spring feels different

I seriously think that co

……She’s small

However, her chest is sood even if she hugs htly It seems like it’ll touch her ribs

「Sla, are you thinking so at me?」

「Pyui, pyui」

I shook my head

There was this one ti to ement potion
