Thank you for today."

In the evening, I left the herb farmhouse, being seen off by my mistress, Arcana.

My whole body ached.

Burgess, who had been trying to show his good side after that, was already groggy from over-exertion.

Let's go take a bath!"

Burgess said so, and the two of them decided to stop by the public bathhouse in the village of Yak.

The public bathhouse was right next to Arkana's herb store.

The fee is 5 mana for villagers and 30 mana for outsiders. Visitors pay 30 mana.

There is only one bathtub, and men and women are separated by time of day.

Right now it was just men's time.

Burgess took off his equipment and clothing. His entire body was covered in scars.

I knew he was an adventurer.

The brave Ryan, who fights with his super fast movement technique, had hardly any wounds at all.

His fellow warrior, Goran, was covered in scars.

That's what usually happens to ordinary people who have been adventurers for decades.

What's the matter with you? I don't have any taste for that!

Burgess shrank back, taking the trouble to hide with his hands what had been fully open just a moment ago.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It was pretty weird.

The two of us soak in the hot water.

What are you going to do tomorrow?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm not sure if I'm coming back tomorrow to pick medicinal herbs or not. I mean, will you come back tomorrow to pick medicinal herbs?

I said, "Of course not. Unlike you, I don't have that much money in my pocket. I have to earn money every day to survive. And I want to accumulate more and more money so that I can do a big business as a merchant. I'm just kidding about Puddin'. Today was just a side trip to stock up on medicinal herbs.

And he achieved his goal.

Just as I had planned.

Arcana, the owner of the herb farm, gave me a little something for my hard work.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

However, it was only "a little.

If I only considered the gain or loss for one day, I would have made more money by going to the guild and looking for a partner to carry my belongings.

However, this is like an investment that is looking ahead to the future.

Relationships with business partners are important.

Even for Arcana.

It seems they were hoping for a bulk purchase of the large amount of inventory they had.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

They took me for a ride, and this time I bought 50,000 mana worth...

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Be my guest!　I look forward to working with you again!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Saying so, Arcana bowed deeply.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Her ample breasts bounced as she did so.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I decided that this would definitely be the place to go when I needed to stock up on medicinal herbs again.

I'm sure she has a crush on me. I'm sure she's got a thing for me. We made eye contact five times today.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, yeah."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Arkana probably has a thing for me, too. We made eye contact 10 times today. One of them even smiled at me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, really?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When two people come at the same time. I'm sorry Arkana, but I'm going to choose Puddin'.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

That's... that's great.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

While we were talking like that.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The water is boiling hot.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Isn't it kind of hot?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I said, but Burgess was just looking at me like, "Heh heh heh, puddin'.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Wait, wait, wait. It's pretty bad!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hmm?　Not so bad.　Puddin-chan!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

This time, the tables are turned.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Burgess is cooler. Burgess, the magic swordsman.

Burgess, the magic swordsman.

It is said that he was able to pass through the flame breath of Melamomoo, an intermediate level monster, without hesitation.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

For a man who has fought a hundred battles, this level of boiling water is insignificant!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Heh..., heh heh heh ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

As I evacuated from the hot water and watched the proceedings.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Burgess eventually sank into the hot water.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Burgessooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He entered the hot water, nearly burning his feet.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

In a panic, he pulled Burgess up.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He's...he's lying..."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I shuddered at the sight of his energetic lower body.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I felt a shiver.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Heh heh heh... puddin'. Hehehehe..."

It seemed that it was time for the public bathhouse to switch to the women's bath.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The boy who was the bathhouse keeper saw the strong-looking Burgess and couldn't speak to him. He had managed to change the water to boiling hot in an attempt to get rid of the women before they arrived.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Aaan!　You son of a b*tc*! Do you know what you've done to the others?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The boy was in tears as Burgess was horrified.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Then...

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh... you're so handsome..."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Arcana, the owner of the herb farm, appeared.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

By the way, we were completely naked in the changing room.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Arkana is looking at us alternately, completely naked, with her hand over her mouth.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Behind her, her daughter Pudding was also hiding.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

P-p-p-p...Puddin-chan!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Arcana and Pudding.

They had come to soak in the public baths at this time of the day, when the baths switch over to the women's baths.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"By all means, join us...hehehe."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Burgess, who instantly looks delectable and is saying such things while blowing a nosebleed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I slapped him to bring him back to his senses.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I left the Yak village public bathhouse.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What the hell did I do?　I think he hates me!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's all right. You didn't look so different from usual.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

That's right. I want to be with you too, but...

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm not sure I can do it.
