Part B

Sorry for being MIA for so long. Please enjoy the continuation.

“Hiroto, don’t cause trouble to Sarasa-san alright?”

O-of course…… then Mom, I’ll be going

“Yes, have fun in Sarasa-san’s house”     

Since I start taking a bath again with my mother again, I’ve been trying to get her to spoil me more lately so I thought she would stop me from going but she just let me go this easily.

“Let’s go back home after I have some more talk with your mother okay?”

“Yes! Hiro-chan, Riona hasn’t been having a bath together with you forever!”

“Y-yeah……”

(No, wait a minute…… I-is it alright? To have a bath together with a little girl like this…… isn’t this a crime?)

I who has the soul age of a 16 years old (18 if added to this life’s age) am getting puzzled on how I should treat this little lolita. Well, I have seen the nudes of little lolita like her once in my past life but it was when I was still a child when we have a bath together on my school trip or when I take a bath in the bath house with my mom but I don’t really remember that kind of thing clearly as I was still a child.

“Hiro-chan, take bath together?”

(…… W-well, oppositely, it might be not that bad… maybe? But it will definitely become a trouble once she grows up a bit more)

If she was about Stella’s age then, I would be able to see various parts of her body which would show the subtle sign of her growth which would definitely made me feel guilty witnessing. She is just barely passable now. Okay, let’s make it that way.

Mother then admonish Riona gently “Riona-chan, Hiroto should feel embarrassed to take a bath together you know? Really this boy, he is getting more precocious”

“It’s alright, because I will also take a bath together with Riona”

I definitely don’t think it’s alright in the slightest though. But I just can’t object that. To get washed by my friend’s mother, well, in Japan, such culture, although not common, might also exist.

(But that would be the case if my mind’s age is just the same as my body’s age……)

“Yay~! Bath with Hiro-chan~, Bath~ ♪ ”

“Uhuhu…… Oh really this little girl of mine to get this happy. Seeing her like that made me feel happy too”

Sarasa-san elegantly laughs seeing her daughter. My mother used to be jealous at Sarasa-san in the past but that feeling seems to be gone now.

Ever since the charm effect on Sarasa-san expires, she doesn’t excessively dote on me anymore. Well this is how things should be…… is what I want to belief but, her affection points towards me keep stayed at the highest point.

RELATIONSHIP INFORMATION

- 《Sarasa》 will devote her entire mind and body for you.

- 《Riona》 is emotionally attached to you.

- 《Remilia》 is your mother.

Seems like the description of relationship state will correspond according to the target’s age as Sarasa-san and Riona’s affection points are almost the same. Back in the game, it was shown by numbers and it was also said that once you maxed an NPC affection to 100, you can even ask that NPC to marry you. But until the day I died, it hasn’t been implemented yet. Well, marriages between players exist though.

I, who tried to act as the aloof guildmaster (?) back then, tried to act unconcerned with the marriage system. But if asked whether I am interested with it then I would lie if I say I didn’t. Well… maybe? Because every time I got asked about love affairs problem like this, my brain just suddenly got filled with lead and unable to work well. It might be because my previous live was such a disaster that it bring me trauma. Well, it was already can’t be helped anyway. I can only do my best in this world.

“…… Actually, today, my husband is having a gathering with his friends so he won’t come back home”

“E,err…… even if you said that to me, I can only reply [Hainz really like his alcohol so it can’t be helped]” says my mom looking troubled hearing Sarasa-san confession.
