Chapter 515.3

A few days later, Nell’s work was finally done, and she returned home to the dungeon.

“I’m home!”

Then, voices immediately replied.

“! Nell, you’re back!” (Illuna)

“Welcome home!” (Shii)

“...Welcome home!” (Enne)

“Oh! You had a long day at work this time.” (Yuki)

“Yes, I’m back. From the look of you, it looks like you’ve had a long day as well.” (Nell)

“Welcome back! You certainly look tired.” (Lyuu)

“Welcome back, Nell, I’ll make you some tea right away.” (Layla)

“Thanks, Layla! This time we had to deal with a monster that was always on the run. I couldn’t find it at all.” (Nell)

Nell felt herself relaxing at the warm welcome she received from her family as she enjoyed the tea and sweets Layla had prepared for her, and they talked about their work. DiisCoover updated novels on n(o)v./e/lbin(.)com

“Oh, oh. –Oh, oh, yes, yes, yes, Nell, the freedom fighter, we are ready to listen to your demands. If there is something more than a request to take a bath, let’s hear it.” (Yuki)

“Eh? Uh...” (Nell)

Normally, Nell would not think about anything else, as long as she could take a bath, but then an idea popped in her head.

“Well, then... I want to take a bath together with husband to heal the fatigue of fighting as warriors day after day! Oni-san, wash my back!”

“Okay, go ahead, he’s your hostage.”

“Hahaha, that’s a good one, a hostage.”

“Don’t call me a hostage. –I’ll go take a bath. As a husband, I’m going to relieve my wife of her daily fatigue.”

“Oh, um... thanks.”

“Why are you, the one who demanded it, acting embarrassed?”

And with that, Nell headed towards the Japanese Inn with Yuki, being warmly sent off by the other adults in the group.

Nell and Yuki enjoyed soaking in the bathtub side by side, feeling a little embarrassment and a sense of happiness welling up from the depths of their hearts.

–I think that a bath at home is the best after all.
