Episode 172: Unsatisfactory settlement

"Come to think of it, is Aki also taking a break today?"

I ask Aki on the way to the bathhouse.

"Aah, I've been leveling up quite a bit. A Stampede hasn't happened yet, so I decided to take a break before it happens."(TN:He probably went up ... a whole 2 or 3 levels!!)

It's true that you don't know when a Stampede might be triggered, so I think it's a good idea to rest when you can.

I can't say that we went to refresh ourselves because we leveled up too much and got bored.

"I see. It's not good to work too hard."

"That's right. You guys ... I can tell by looking at that face ... I feel like you're too refreshed."

Aki looks back at me and makes an exasperated face.

When we arrive at the bathhouse, we start to change clothes.

"No, it's hard for me to understand what you're saying ..."

"I'm saying that you've changed that much."

No, I don't understand, and I don't want to understand.

We wrap a towel around each of our lower bodies.

"Huh!? ... There's no way such a change can happen in a spa alone. No way ... Did you climb the stairs to adulthood!?"

"Huh!? What the hell are you talking about!?"

Just when I thought Aki suddenly started mumbling, he suddenly starts saying strange things and rushes at me. I don't understand the meaning and shout with a bewildered expression.

"That's what it means!? Damn you!!"

"That's why I said, what are you talking about!!"

I ask back at Aki, who continues to ignore me who is confused.

I really don't understand what this guy is trying to say.

Stairs to adulthood? No way ...

"You crossed the line with Alexia-chan!?"

"D, Don't be stupid!! There's no way that's true!!"

Aki finally shouts out the specifics, and my prediction was correct, so I hurriedly object.

Although it was an accident with Alexia, I didn't tell Aki that we kissed. That's why I hesitated to reply because of my guilt.

"No way, it has to be!! Otherwise, you wouldn't be so handsome!!"

"Th, there's no such reason!! I told you that I don't have that kind of relationship with Shia!!"

Aki insists that he took my reaction as a lie. I can only make the same rebuttal as usual.

It's hard to prove I didn't.

"Even if you say that, the truth is that it's a common story!!"

"It may be a common story in the general public, but there is absolutely no such thing between Shia and I. This is what happened when I received treatment at the spa!!"

This guy is really stubborn today. However, it's completely groundless. I can't give in to such nonsense!!

"Is it even possible to do that much with a spot treatment!!"

"It can't be helped because it happened!! It won't change even if you say that to me!! Unmistakably, even if I cross the line, it won't change that much!!"

It may be a fact that Aki finds it difficult to accept, but I have become who I am now just by undergoing treatment, so I can only deny it.

If that's the case, I can take him to Spa Emotional next time.

"Aaahhhh!! After all, you crossed it!!"

"I'm telling you, I didn't cross iiiiiiit!? Stop it!!"

However, this time he misinterpreted my words and starts saying that I had crossed the line with Alexia. I can't handle him.

"Hey, you guys are noisy."

We hear a relaxed voice before us.

The man comes from the bathroom and comes to us with a dignified attitude, as if to say that his body has nothing to hide.

"Big!? Se, Senpai!!"

"Senpai!!"

The man is a Senpai. While Aki is surprised to see a certain part of him, I shout normally.

"What happened?"

"Fuhito crossed the line with Alexia-chan!!"

"I'm telling you I didn't do that kind of thing!!"

We point our fingers at each other and speak to the Senpai who asked.

"Huh ... Takaaki insists that he has crossed the line. Fuhito insists that he has not. Is that what you mean?"

"Yes."

"That's right."

The Senpai asks again after summarizing our story.

We both nod.

"Hmm. Isn't there an easy method to decide?"

While looking at our faces, the Senpai puts his hand on his chin and suggests something to us.

"What kind of method is it?"

"That's right ... like this!!"

-Buoooooooooooooon

When Aki asks with a surprised expression on his face, the Senpai shakes his fist.

-Pasaaat

The wind pressure causes the towels Aki and I are wearing to fall to the floor.

A glimpse of each other's hidden parts catch our eyes.

"I, I lost ..."

For some reason, Aki admits defeat.

"Takaaki. Is it okay ot say that Fuhito's claim is correct?"

"Yes. That's fine."

When the Senpai asks Aki, he readily admits it.

"Fuhito. Takkaki admitted defeat. Is it okay?"

"Wha, wha, wha ..."

This time, I reply like a broken record to the Senpai who asks me a question.

"Huh? What happened, Fuhito?"

"What the hell is thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!!"

I ignore my Senpai's words and can't help but to shout at the result of the match that is too unsatisfactory.

Well, it might be a good thing that the fruitless quarrel is over.

I just am not convinced.
