The young man who appeared at the bathhouse had the body of an obvious martial artist.

He was well-built, muscular, and a little taller than me - probably over 180 centimeters.
However, he did not have the slightest hint of heaviness, and his toned body reminded me of a large predator like a tiger.

He was probably about the same age as Satsuki and me.
He was a young man with red hair and eyes of the same color, and had a pretty good face.

However, there was one major problem with the young man.
At the risk of sounding vulgar...

He was clothed in such a way that it became apparent that, to use a rather vulgar term, a person with red hair also has red hair underneath .......

The young man in this state pulled a bath towel over his shoulders and walked towards the bathtub with a dignified attitude.

When Cyril saw him, he stood up, expressing his displeasure.
He held the bath towel wrapped around his chest tightly with his hand and directed his protest to the young man.

'You ...... are insane to come into a coed bath without a towel wrapped around you. You should follow the etiquette of bathing.

Mee also agrees with Cyril, looking uninterested as she soaks in the bathtub.

'That's exactly right. I don't know if you're confident or not, but it's simply uncomfortable.

The two girls complained.
The atmosphere in the open-air baths at night, which had been relaxed, suddenly became tense when a young man intruded.

However, the young man, who had been criticized by the two girls, did not seem to mind at all, and walked towards the bathtub.

'Oh, you're insane. But woman, life won't be fun if you're stuck with common sense. And your cat, I don't care if you're uncomfortable or not. I'll do what I want.

The young man then took a quick dip in the bathtub without soaking himself.
The hot water splashed down on the four of us.

It's a ...... bad idea.
I feel that way as I wipe the hot water from my face.

It's best to stay out of the way of people like this, even though it's unpleasant.
It is human nature that when we see such people, we want to beat them up with violent means, and I feel the same way emotionally, but if we actually do it, we are the outlaws.

But there is one person in our party who does not make such rational decisions.

She stood up and stepped forward, restraining Cyril who was getting upset, and walked briskly through the hot water towards the young man who was soaking in the hot water facing her.

'Huh, is that so? ....... If that's the case, then so am I...'

Satsuki stood in front of the young man, who was waist-deep in hot water, and clenched her fists.

'I'll do whatever you want me to do!

Satsuki swung her aura-covered fist down at the young man's face.

'Guren-sama!

At that moment, another woman's voice came from the entrance of the women's locker room, but it was obvious that it was too late to stop her...

The young man's red hair shook.
Satsuki's fist, however, stopped just in front of the young man's face.

It wasn't that the young man had caught her.
Satsuki had originally intended to stop him just short.

A moment of silence.
The next person to speak was the young man who had been hit by Satsuki.

I'm not sure if I like it or not, but I like it. I like it a lot.

The young man quickly grabbed Satsuki's wrist as he said this.
That Satsuki couldn't dodge it.

'd*mn you ......! I could see everything and you didn't even try to dodge. ......?

'Of course not. How do you need to dodge a fist that was intended to stop you from the start? Did you come here to be eaten by me, woman?

'......!

The young man stood up and twisted Satsuki's arm.
Satsuki screamed in agony and was suspended in midair by the tall young man's hands.

The young man's other hand reached out to Satsuki...

'Stop, that's enough...'

I stood up and shouted a warning to the young man.

I thought that the lawlessness was mutual and watched the situation, but if it became too much, I couldn't overlook it.
I want to avoid violent means, but I am willing to take socially evil measures sometimes to protect what is more important.

A sorcerer can use magic even without a wand.
A sorcerer's wand is merely a tool to assist him in casting more powerful spells.

'What? ...... what are you, one of these guys?'

The young man's attention turned to me, and he let go of Satsuki, who was twisted up.
Satsuki's body falls into the hot water with a thud.
The girl then surfaced and choked up.

I watched her out of the corner of my eye and said something back to the young man.

'What if I said yes?

At my words, Cyril, Mee, and Satsuki looked at me intently.
I was aware of my own ugly self-consciousness that I wanted to keep them under my ownership.

The young man, on the other hand, brushed back his red hair and replied to my question.

'Then you'd better take care of your own woman's discipline.

'...... You're not being polite to anyone, are you?

'Courtesy is not something I need to live by.

'I see. It seems there's nothing to talk about with you.'

'I agree. I've lost interest. You guys get the hell out of here.'

'Yeah. I'm sorry, but I don't want to be in the water with you either. Let's go, Satsuki, Cyril, and Mee.'

I took the three girls who were nodding their heads and quickly left the bathhouse.

On the way, a woman went toward the young man in turn, but I did not care about that, I felt that I should leave this unpleasant place as soon as possible.
