Chapter 5-The "Singing Fawn" Pavilion and the highlight of the inn

(TL:By Rafael)

I regained my composure and headed for the inn under the guidance of Silk, who was holding a map.

It seemed that the town of Duna had been well organized beforehand, and all the streets, including the main street, were straight and all the roads intersected at right angles.

Thanks to this, we were able to walk to our destination inn without getting lost.

"This is it, isn't it? It's the Singing Fawn Pavilion."(Yuki)

The inn we arrived at was a small, two-story wooden building reminiscent of a large private house.

it was like a large private house, but it had an appearance that gave me a sense of security.

"This place is amazing. ......"(Silk)

Silk, who had been looking at the inn, looked surprised and pleased.

"Amazing?"(Yuki)

" The spirits are very stable. ...... is like a sanctuary in the forest. How can it be ...... in a city like this?"(Silk)

"That's amazing."(Yuki)

However, there's no point in looking up, so I proceed to the door.

As I was about to touch the door, a small breeze blew and the door opened automatically.

"Welcome to the Singing Fawn Pavilion."(??)

A young woman in an apron bowed to us, maybe a little older than us. She has kind eyes, and her flaxen hair is pulled back into a bun.

"We're Clover, introduced by the guild."(Yuki)

"Yes, I've heard of you. You must be tired after your long journey."(Apron girl)

The inside of the inn was still small, more like a house than an inn.

"I feel like I am back home."(Rain)

"Yes, it feels like that."(Yuki)

I nodded at Rain's comment.

I have the same impression.

In the living room of the atrium, there was a fireplace and several sofas.

The table in the center of the room was already set with enough tea for everyone.

"Welcome. My name is Fina, and I am the owner. I will be taking care of you during your stay."(Fina)

"I am Yuki Ferdio, leader of Clover."(Yuki)

"Yes, I know who you are, to be honest I'm a fan of Clover myself."(Fina)

Fina smiled and handed me what looked like an innkeeper's notebook.

"Can you give me the names of everyone here?"(Fina)

"Yes"(Yuki)

As I passed the book around, They signed their names.

"You can pay for the rest of your stay, but if you need to eat, just ask and we'll provide it"(Fina)

"Are the meals free of charge?"(Marina)

" Yes, that's right. You can eat as much as you want, Marina."(Fina)

"What?"(Marina)

Marina was surprised, and Fina smiled at her.

"I saw the video of you eating at the Colorless Darkness, and I saw that you enjoy eating a lot."(Fina)

"That's embarrassing!"(Yuki)

Marina's face turned red and she covered it with her hands.

But if you eat that much in the labyrinth, you'll be definitely the talk of the town.

I'm sorry I was so stubborn about serving you food, but I regret it.

"We will make every effort to make this Inn your home away from home for the time being."(Fina)

"It's for our private use?"(Silk)

"Yes. I'm sorry, but I took the liberty of doing so, as I thought Master Silk might be concerned about being seen."(Fina)

"Thank you very much. It's our first time here and I was a little concerned."(Yuki)

The service is too good!

"You can take your room upstairs if you like. And after a short rest, I'll show you the highlight of the inn."(Fina)

"The highlight?"(Yuki)

"Hasn't Lady Manuela told you?"(Fina)

Fina and I tilted our heads at each other.

I'm sure it's a nice inn, but what's the thing about highlight?

I don't know.

I thought it would be enough to rest in peace, and I feel that the current situation is over-serviced enough.

"I'm curious."(Marina)

I'm curious too!"(Rain)

Marina and Rain looked at each other and stood up.

It's true, if you put it that way, it's human nature to be curious.

I'm curious too.

" Ufufuufufu I'll show you around, then. This way, please."(Fina)

Fina led me to the back of the inn.

It was deeper than it looked, with a door at the far end opening into a narrow passage extending further in.

As we walked down the passage in a line, we found ...... that led to the outside.

"Is it a garden?"(Yuki)

"A garden, yes."(Fina)

A garden, with many ornamental plants.

Notably, in the center of the garden was an oval-shaped spring about twenty feet in diameter.

In the middle of the fountain was an oval-shaped spring about 20 feet in diameter, with steam drifting from it.

"Could this be a ...... hot spring?"(Nene)

Nene's eyes lit up as she sniffed.

"Yes, that's right. It is effective in relieving fatigue and beautifying the skin."(Fina)

Fina nodded somewhat proudly.

"What is a hot spring, Nene?"(Yuki)

(TL:Yuki doesn't know hot spring...shocking)

"Well, it's basically the same as a spring, but instead of water, hot water comes out of the ground."(Nene)

"Do you drink it? Like a potion?"(Yuki)

"No, you soak in it."(Nene)

Wouldn't it boil over if I soaked myself in the hot water coming up from underground?

Nene blurts out at the suspicious look on my face.

"There are things that even you don't know."(Nene)

"I've never seen this before. This is a first for me. ......"(Yuki)

"The temperature of the water is the same as in the shower at home, I think."(Nene)

"Really?"(Yuki)

Nene and Fina smiled again at my extreme caution.

"What about you?(Nene)

"I have no experience."(Rain)

"Me neither!"(Marina)

"Neither have I."(Silk)

Nene thought about it for a moment, and her ears perked up.

"Then we should all go in together. Then you won't be afraid!"(Nene)

TL Note- Is it the legendary bath scene.....I will be waiting and I think so will you.....the epic hot spring Chapter, coming next......Chapter like this should be sponsored tbh.
