Chapter 1466

Captivating Relaxation Room

After a good rest in the rest room, it was time for a proper bath. The bedrock bath was pleasant, but I still wanted to soak in the hot water.

Even so, the jacuzzi also sounds nice, and the aromatic bath was also hard to ignore.

[By the way, Illness-san. Is there anything else here besides the jacuzzi and the aromatic bath?]

[Yeees. According to what Alice-sama told meeeee, there’s a high-concentration carbonated spring, a lie-down bath, an electric bath, an ultrasonic bath, waterfall shower, a footbath, and so oooooon.]

[……There are more than I thought!?]

This place really feels like an onsen theme park. As the name suggests, the high-concentration carbonated spring is highly effective in relieving fatigue. The lie-down bath is a bath where you can lie down, which I think is also fiendishly comfortable.

If I’m not mistaken, the electric bath is effective for bath pain, right? Wasn’t the ultrasonic bath something like a microbubble bath or something like that? I’m not sure how that differs from a jacuzzi, but I’m sure it feels good.

The waterfall bath is something that replicates the experience of bathing under a waterfall, while the footbath is, well, a footbath…… That’s quite a line-up.

[……This is perplexing. I kinda want to get in all of those.]

[I think it’s possibleeeee. They’re all on the same floooooor, so you can go bath hoppiiiiing.]

[Eh? Ahh, I see. If that’s the case, I don’t have to limit myself to just one bath.]

[I thiiiiiink it will be easier to understand if you actually see the baths for yourseeeeelf, so let me show you arouuuuund.]

When Illness-san led me to the area where the baths are located…… I found a fairly large space with several different types of baths. I mean, this completely looked like a super bathhouse or an onsen theme park.

With this, I can get into various baths, which is wonderful. I wish I knew about the existence of this place earlier…… Ahh, but preparing this many baths would probably be a burden for Illness-san…… I’ll only use this place occasionally.

[Kaito-samaaaa, the changing room is this waaaaay.]

[Even the changing rooms are spacious huh.]

[According to Alice-samaaaa, the rule is to wear swimsuits in this plaaaace, so I had your swimsuit prepaaaaaared. Please use this rooooooom.]

……For a moment, I wondered why there was such a rule, but after thinking about it for a while, I understood. There were several rockbaths in this spacious area, and the rooms were spacious as well.

This space is probably prepared not for me alone, but for example, I’m supposed to go here with my lovers. At least, I think Alice intends to use it with me if there’s an opportunity for that.

But needless to say, Alice is shy and mainly because of Alice’s self-destructive actions…… No, well, it can be said that I’m the cause, but in any case, she had some trauma from mixed bathing.

That’s probably why she made that swimsuit rule.

Also, this is just my speculation here, but isn’t it possible that Alice had been intending to invite me to this place much earlier?

Alice claimed that she had forgotten to tell me, but she may have actually planned to show it to me as a surprise when I’m hanging out with her, so it makes sense to think that she intentionally kept it a secret.

Then, when I think about why I didn’t know about it until now, even though it’s been a long time since the house was built…… Even though she was gonna wear a swimsuit, she must have still flinched. It certainly was possible if she minimized the exposure of her skin just like when we went to the beach…… Hmmm, should I invite her here next time? If I wait for Alice to invite me, I don’t know when that invitation will come……

As I was thinking about this, my ears heard words I couldn’t believe right after.

[Well theeeeen, I’ll also make my preparatiooooons.]

[……Eh? Illness-san too?]

[Yeeees. Even in the baaaaath, I will take care of vaaaaaaaarious things.]

[……I see.]

Calm down, Miyama Kaito. Illness-san’s words held no ulterior motives, she only meant that she would support me so that I could relax. Don’t give the word “care” a bad impression, it’s the worst thing you can do as a person. Take a deep breath and clear your head. Don’t think anything strange…… Don’t think anything strange…… Alright, this will be alright……

[————–Wait, Illness-san!? What are you doing?]

[Yeeees? I was thinking of changing my cloooooothes.]

[Eh? No, no, you’re doing that here?]

I was trying to calm myself down, but when I saw Illness-san trying to take off the clothes she was wearing, my head, which I should have been desperately calming down, instantly heated up.

What on earth is going on!? N- No, I can understand the logic here. Illness-san is gonna support me in the bathroom. However, if she gets in the bathroom as she is now, her clothes will get wet and it will be difficult to move…… My head can understand the logic, but my thoughts can’t keep up with the situation!

[I put on my swimsuit beforehaaaaaand, so it’s alriiiiiight.]

[A- Ahhh, so that’s how it is. As expected of Illness-san, you’re very well-prepared.]

……No, wait, I can’t really say that makes things alright!

Serious-senpai : [Gwaarrrgh, e- endure…… As long as it becomes April…… I’ll switch to cherry blossom sweet bean paste so……]

? ? ? : [No, how is that gonna make things okay!?]

Makina : [……White chocolate and cherry blossom sweet bean paste…… That might work.]

? ? ? : [And there’s this woman, already thinking on the premise that she’s gonna eat……]
