I knocked on the bedroom door and Theresa opened it from inside. She had confirmed it when she brought Louisa-san in earlier, but there was enough room for a chest of drawers between the three beds, and the room was illuminated by the warm light of Kantera, which was lit by magic power.

　But is it correct to say that Louisa will continue to sleep with him in the future? It's hard to imagine her using the same shape of the suite terrace alone, and I haven't heard of her sharing it with other guild staff.

　The fact that Louisa-san, who is always firm, has been completely crushed, I wonder if she is also tired of being tired. When I think about it, I'd like to let her sleep slowly, but--''

''.........''

　Theresia has already finished preparing for her bath. On her bed, there is a large towel to wipe her body and a cloth bag. Perhaps the contents of the bag are the swimsuit.

"If I had prepared a bathing suit as well, there would be no more problems....eh?

　She shakes her head shakily. I think about what it's intended to do, and I make an analogy without thinking about it.

''Like ... you can't go in there with a swimsuit on, so you shouldn't wear it because you can't get a fresh start?''
..........
I'm sure it's the same for Theresa and I'm sorry about that, too. It's not allowed to bathe with a man of my age. So far, I've made a special exception...

　To no avail, she doesn't listen to me at all and hands me a towel for me. Then she turns behind me and discreetly pushes me - trying to lead me to the bathroom.

'Wow, okay. Louisa-san looks like she's still asleep and if you were awake, I'd have you and Theresa come in with me.
..........
'Oh I'm sorry, Theresa. It's not that I don't want to go in with you, I know I'm being a bit old and pathetic, but...

　The force that Theresia pushes is getting stronger and stronger - she's a lizardman for what it's worth, and despite her small stature, her strength is so strong that she can't resist at all. I didn't expect to realize the weaknesses of the 'rear guard' once again in this place.

''Hmm...''
Te, Theresa. Can you give me a moment, because Louisa is having trouble sleeping.

　Theresa stops pushing and waits for me. I thankfully walk up to Louisa, who is sleeping on the bed, and I see her sleeping.

''Ugh....''

　Louisa's face was turning red - was it that hard of a drink? I had two more glasses of the same stuff, but I figured it was pretty strong so I'd be fine, so I let her pace it out.

　But the bigger problem was - Louisa-san's figure was extremely defenseless as she turned on her back and bounced off the blanket.

(Oh, I thought........but this dress, if it doesn't cover her chest more tightly, it'll suddenly become dangerous.......

　I'm in danger right now, and I try to put the blanket over my mind without a care in the world. But Louisa seemed to be hot, and she stripped herself off again.

　Then she wriggled and turned her back to me. My back isn't covered at all, but if I try to put a blanket on it again, I'll probably peel it off myself. But if I left it like this, I might get cold in my sleep and catch a cold.

　Potions in general are consumed heavily in the higher wards and traded at a high price, so sobering potions and the like are not easily available. It wouldn't be practical to have a healer (healer) come to your house at this time to treat you - then.

'Theresa, can you wait a moment? I'm afraid I'll have to leave Miss Louisa like this.
..........

　Nodding curtly, Theresa sat down on her own bed. Then she watched to see what I was going to do.

　To be drunk to the point of obscuring consciousness, as I am now, is also considered to be no small amount of damage to the body. I can't recover from the intoxication with my 'support', but by recovering my strength, can't I help Louisa-san to sober up?

　Louisa-san, who is not a party member, can also be the target of my skills now - yes, with 'Other Assist'.

　　　◆Current Situation ◆

　Aricht activates 'Other Assist'.
　Arihito activates 'Support Recovery 1' → Target: Louisa

　Since it's once every 30 seconds, activate the skill and wait for a while - if your strength is at full strength, there is no indication that it has been restored. You can now verify if it's possible that your stamina is decreasing due to intoxication.

　--But it was just when thirty seconds had passed. Louisa-san's body, which is sleeping with her back to me, is covered by a pale green light.

　　　◆Current Situation ◆.

　Louisa's strength has been restored.

(....) You're supposed to recover 5 points, but not all of them?　(I didn't know things were that bad...?

Soooooooo.........

　My sleep becomes visibly calmer. When I just joined the company, I was forced to participate in a drinking contest once and it was a big deal, but I was reminded that drinking too much too quickly can be fatal.

'.........Louisa-san, next time let's drink slowly and not too tightly.

　I know she won't respond to me when I speak to her, but I asked Theresia to wait until her full strength is restored and continued to activate 'Supportive Recovery'. It takes time, but the good thing about my recovery skill is that it doesn't drain a lot of magic power.

　　　◆◇◆

　Although everyone who had taken a bath before me was very positive about it, everyone was still blushing about the matter of Theresa following me. It's a shame for me too, but for some reason, Terezia doesn't blush at all, only at times like this.

　I asked her to wait outside the changing room for a while, and I went in first. I don't want to be too conscious of it, so I first try drawing hot water into the wooden bucket to check the extent of the hot water.

"...a bit lukewarm, but just right?

　I pay attention to the temperature of the water because I have to avoid just a situation where Theresa gets upset. I don't care too much if it's hot or warm, so I don't have a problem adjusting to Teresia.

(Lizardmen seem like they'd be at the water's edge or in a swamp...)

　We didn't encounter the lizard demons that Theresa fought. I do wonder if they were inhabiting the labyrinth that we never set foot in.

　If there was a demon in possession of Teresia's possessions and she was still alive and not defeated - but when you think of how Teresia felt when she was facing the demon that once took her life, it was probably a blessing that she didn't encounter it.

　Or does Theresia want to take down the demon that defeated her with her own hands? Although I think I have come to understand her feelings to some extent, I can't possibly realize everything.

　Even Theresa, the spirit body I saw when I fought the 'Vine Grass Puppet Master', so to speak, had a lizard's tail growing out of it. If you become a subhuman, even your mind will be affected by the demon - seeing that, I felt the need to hurry even more.

　At that moment, the bathroom door opened. I slapped my cheek, realizing that my face had turned grim.

'Theresa, you can put your swimsuit on properly by yourself...'
..........

　My words were cut off because my thoughts stopped when I saw Theresia's figure.

　Her face is still obscured by a hood that looks like a stuffed lizard, but Theresia walks over to me, wearing a striped triangular swimsuit that I rarely saw in my previous life.

　Her body is covered in lizard scales, but the area of white skin is much larger than I expected, and even though she's wearing a bikini, it's hard to look at her. It's a great improvement though, since she came in with nothing to wear at first.

..........
Hmm?　Oh, yeah ... you're going to flush my back. I'm sorry every time.

　Theresia took the towel from me and lathered up the soap and rinsed her back. She didn't have to say anything to me, she was using a lot of force and there was nothing wrong with letting her do it.

　I only had Theresia flush my back and arms, so I'll take it from there. Theresia understands that and starts washing herself - she's not sitting in a chair for some reason, she's kneeling on the floor, but apparently it doesn't hurt because her knees are covered in scales.

　I don't want to look at her too much, so I start washing my own head. The order is always the opposite of what I usually do.
It's not like I have to follow a set routine by any means - when I thought about it.

''........Hmm?　Theresa, the door is now....

　Before you say, "Didn't you open it?", I understand. That there was another person who came in besides me and Theresa.

''Well Master Atobe. I'm sorry to show you how unseemly I was earlier.
"--?

　All the vocabulary in my head is blown away. I know that Theresia wants to get in, but she and I are not yet in a relationship where we have a bath together - no, it usually takes ten thousand miles to progress to that point, and even then it should be normal to not mix baths for the rest of our lives.

''Well........everyone had already come out of the bath and seemed to have gone back to their rooms, so.......if possible, there was also a discussion about the fact that besides Atobe-sama and Theresia-sama, one other person should bathe together. There was a lot going on and....

　As it was being explained to me, I somehow understood the situation. In other words, it's the same thing as Igarashi-san and Elitia taking action to keep an eye on me, 'because I'm curious'.

(I, no, would they still act like this...?)

''Would it be better for the two of you?　In that case, I'll........
'No, no, I'm not going back now... well, I mean, what can I say... I'm just so glad that Luisa is feeling better...' ...
'Yes. I think it was because Atoobe-sama took care of me...I feel sorry for myself, but I got worse than I thought I would. But I remember Atoobe-sama talking to me kindly earlier. After I woke up, my body felt better...

　That being said, I finally understand - that what I did had something to do with it as the reason she took such a bold step.

(Because I 'supported recovery' while she was asleep...?　(It's only a minute or so before he's fully recovered...)

'Oh my God, I'm sorry, I was in the middle of washing my hair...'
'Yes, no, it's fine. On the other hand, not being able to open your eyes probably looks better now...

　I can't just be disconcerted by the fact that Theresia is also with me. Just because they're sharing a room, I'm going to allow myself the situation of mixed bathing while being strictly careful not to turn my gaze on Louisa-san for today - and I'm just trying to divide it up.

　Louisa-san's presence is gradually coming closer and moving behind me. I had no choice but to raise the white flag, saying that I couldn't resist this trend.

''Atube-sama, may I have a moment?　I was really happy about what happened earlier, so...

　Louisa takes over in the middle and washes my head. But then the unexpected happened.

　The moment she held up her fingers and gave me a scalp massage, in no time at all, the tension eased and even the muscle fatigue in my body showed signs of recovery.

"Louisa-san, this is.........
'Yes ... "Shiatsu". I've been using it to relieve my own fatigue... how do you like it?
It's just so comfortable, I'm not gonna lie, I think I'm gonna fall asleep...

　I can feel Louisa's giggle. Before my reincarnation, I had seen her receiving a head spa in Bali on TV, and her skill - 'Shiatsu' - was so outstanding that I wondered if it was like this.

''Oh, um...I don't mean to ask you this, but Louisa-san's profession is...''
I'm retired now, so I'm keeping it a secret. I'm not a 'masseuse' or anything like that.

　Even the joyful whispering is so pleasant that I feel like my consciousness is going to fly away, even though I'm still sitting down - or maybe it will fly away.

　Perhaps when I get out of the bath, I'll be completely refreshed. In my dreaminess, I see Theresia approaching as well, but for some reason, she was fine when it was just me and her, but before I knew it, her skull mask had turned bright red.
