Volume 3 - CH 1.2

Part 2

Although there was a decrease in Adventurers that accepted quests, bathing at a place that was used for harvesting medicinal plants was bad──Because of that, they moved a bit further downstream.

They found a convenient sandbank. At the inner part where the river curved, there was an arched portion where sand and gravel piled up.

Since the river’s current was more gentle on the inner part than the outer part, it was just right for bathing.

Also because the sandbank was lower than the surroundings, it didn’t seem like they needed to worry about being seen in their swimsuit appearances.

「……Nn? The swimsuits?」

「What’s wrong, Diablo?」

He was asked that by Shera who was tilting her head.

「You two, do you not have swimsuits?」

「What’s, that?」

「……”Swimsuit”, is it? Is that some kind of tool?」

「Will the two of you enter the water while still wearing your clothes? Thought that might be good since you will also be doing your laundry as well.」

Shera laughed at Diablo’s words.

「Ahaha, if we did that, we’d catch a coldー」

「……That’s true. Our clothes would also be damaged.」

Shera placed her equipment on the sandbank. They were the gathered medicinal plants, her bow and arrows, and a small pouch that had small change and Summoned Beast crystals inside.

She started to loosen the string of her clothes.

「Since we’re taking a bath, of course we’ll be naked, you know, Diablo?」

「Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa────ッ!!」

Shera’s scream resounded.

「Wah! Sorr……ッ!?」

No, this urgent sounding scream, something’s wrong!

Diablo was about to apologize, but he noticed that something was strange.

Rem shouted.

「Th, this guy is……Could it be, are you a Demonic Being!?」
