234-Bath of spirit sisters




 
 I had breakfast with Mr. Hurt and everyone else.

 Hurt-sama complimented me on how well the fish was cooked.


 Now I'm cleaning up after the meal and washing the dishes, but I can't stop my cheeks from loosening up.

 Mr. Hult always praises us when my wife and I do some housework.

 He always says, "Thank you for your hard work".

 I don't like to do housework, like cleaning. I like making meals, but....

 But even if it's such a boring chore, I'm motivated to do my best because Mr. Hardt praises me.


 Furthermore, today, as Hult-sama was leaving the dining room, he patted me on the head and said, 'The rice was delicious.

 So I'm grinning even more than usual.

 It makes me feel very happy to have Harut-sama praise me.

 It's not because I'm a spirit under a summoning contract with Hurt-sama.

 It's because I love you, Master Halt.

 It makes me very happy to be praised by someone I love. My heart is filled with warmth.

 It makes me want to try my best to get them to praise me again.


"My, do you have a minute?

Yes, Master Hurt. Yes?

 I was about to finish washing the dishes when Master Hurt appeared in the kitchen.

''I'm going to be training with Tina and Elmia in swordsmanship, but I'm sure I'll be sweating, so can I have the hot water in the bath?''

I understand.

 The bath in Harut-sama's house is very spacious. There's plenty of room for about 20 people in the bathtub at the same time.

 I think it's probably very difficult to fill up such a big bath with hot water.

 However, I am a fire spirit.

 If I cooperate with Mei, the water spirit, I can easily prepare a large amount of hot water.

 That's why it's the job of us spirit sisters to fill the baths in this mansion with hot water.

 Because of this job, May and I have received a small percentage of the other jobs.

 I feel bad that we don't have to do any other work for a job that will be done in a few dozen seconds.

 But Mr. Hurt says that's fine with me, so it's not a problem.

 Let's try to get the perfect temperature control so that everyone feels comfortable coming in.

''Well then, nice to meet you.''

I, uh...

 When I do my chores, Master Hult gives me a compliment.

 Especially when I do the chores that Master Hult asks me to do, he gives me a reward.

Reward? Can I kiss you?
Yes!


 Ehehe, I've been kissed by Hurt-sama. I'm so happy.

 But it's not fair to say I was the only one, is it?

'Master Hurt, I'll have May help you with that...'

Yeah, I know. I'll go ask May to do the right thing.

 That's my boy, Mr. Hult.


 You are the one.

 May and I came to the bath with May.

 She is smiling very much.
 It looks like she was rewarded by Master Halt.

 My sister seems to be happy, so I am happy too.

 Since I received the reward first, I have to do my job now.

May, I'm about to do it.
Yeah!

 As May held her hand over the tub, water began to gather from the space.

 This water is just water.
 It's not spirit water or anything like that.

 Spiritual water is precious, so as expected, it can't be used for bathing.

 So I will do my best to heat this water for that.


 The flame that has been burning since the creation of this world.

 I summoned the primordial flame to my hand.

 After receiving a large amount of magical power from the Harut-sama, my existence was raised to a higher level, and I was finally able to summon this flame recently.

 With that powerful flame that never goes out, I warm up the mass of water that May has prepared for me.

 In a few seconds, it has reached the right temperature.
 It's nice.

 Of course, it doesn't just warm me up.

 It's using the primordial flame.

 Just by soaking in this hot water, my strength and magic power will be fully restored, and it will also have the effect of extending my life span a bit.

 A ten-minute bath would extend your life span by about a day.


 If the water that Mei produces is holy water...

 Coupled with the effects of the primordial flame, one bath a day can extend your life for a year.

 But holy water isn't as good as spirit water, but it's quite precious.

 As expected, Mei can't seem to create holy water either.

 It's a pity.



Oh, can I take a bath?

 Seira, a former saint, came to see me.

 When she was a saint, she used to bathe many times a day, and she still loves to take a bath.

 When we fill the bathtub with water, Seira is often the first to come.

She said, "Sure! Can we come in with you?

'Of course. Come on in with me.

 Master Hurt should be here soon, after he finishes his training. Then you can bathe with Master Hurt.

 All of Master Hult's wives will bathe with him.

 I have a reason that the water will get cold, but the water heated by the primordial fire will stay hot for about a day.

 Well, I don't want to confide in you about it because I'm going to take a bath with Hurt-sama.


 By the way, it's actually quite embarrassing for me to intrude on Hurt-sama's bathing time.

 But I love taking a bath with you.

 That's why I'm going to take a bath first.


 Hmmm. Halt-sama, I hope you will come soon.
