193 Chapter 13-1 Evening Before Arrival

"Ok... now you have ten wins, two losses and three minutes."

"... wouldn't you mind losing more? You said it wasn't perfect, but it wasn't too cute."

We were camping in the middle of a half-day drive to Gunjo City.

It was three days earlier than planned, so we took an early break to avoid leaving fatigue when entering the city of Gunjo. Well, I was able to move so fast because Chris, Albert and Cain, who were so tenacious that Lion wouldn't catch up to me, worked hard on your man.

The reason why the three of them worked so hard was because of the retribution for the inconvenience they caused in Russell City and because 'if Lyon had finished their errands and entered their next journey when they arrived in Gunjo City, Lyon would have reacted slightly more interesting'.

Earlier mock fights were suggested to Chris to see how his body was doing in a game in action format, something he had been doing several times each time he had camped out of Russell City.

The result of the simulation is a minute from my two consecutive defeats in the first camp and a win from two minutes in the next. And we've been winning streak since we got the win. This is because I'm not completely back in shape, I'm used to the way my body moves now, and I've changed the way I fight.

When we lost the streak, we fought with a normal feeling, and when we drew, we fought with the defensive subjects, and now we fought for the counter. During the winning streak, assuming the opponent was not Mr. Chris but Mr. Dinn, he moved his body while fully rotating his head. Thanks to that, I was mentally unable to afford much for my grades.

"Even if we're going to take measures, we're going to get back on track every time we play a game, so we're going to have to stay out of step... Tenma, you seem so nasty"

"Please don't make any misleading remarks. If it's too bad, it's going to spill a lot of stupidity... in front of Maria."

"... don't tell me"

"Tenma, with me next!

Staring at Mr. Chris, Amur had been running for office, but he refused several times because the way Amur fought at the mercy of the boulders was unlikely to be able to fight decently at the moment.

"Well, I'm just trying to say... but I'm not going to be able to replace Senior Chris."

Cain ran for the Amur stream, but decided for himself that he didn't have as much to give as Mr. Chris, and he was grinning bitterly as he said something masochistic.

"It's more like we're about to have dinner than that, so why don't you just sweat it out?

I realized it was time for dinner in Cain's words and gave way to Mr. Chris. At first, when I said it like a lady first, Mr. Chris said,

"What! You want after me? You have such a hobby."

I was kidding, so only on the first day I ignored Chris and occupied the bath until it was critical that I could go in first and have dinner, and then Chris stopped saying that. I don't like eating dinner with the boulder still smelling like sweat. I took a bath after dinner, but by the time I got up, they had eaten up most of the dinner, and I don't want to roast black bread and dried meat alone anymore.

It's just that when Mr. Chris tries to take a bath after he's in, it'll take a little while for me to get in, as three of Amur, Aura and Jeanne will be cleaning the bath soon. Well, it makes me like it because it feels good to put it in new water, but it's really critical at dinner time, so depending on the time of cooking and Chris, it can be late to take a seat.

"So, how long are you planning to stay in Gunjo City?

"Five days or so...... I know a lot of people over there, and they can go anytime they want, so I know it could be shorter, but Primera and Albert don't, do they?

Primera belongs to the Knights of Gunjo City, so she won't be able to leave so easily, and Albert basically has to be in the King's Capital, so there shouldn't be much opportunity for the two of them to meet.

"Yeah, well... right"

Apparently it wasn't the answer I'd hoped for, and Cain came back with words that seemed out of his mind. Well, as for Cain, you expected me to say it because I wanted to meet Primera, but I'm finally getting used to the way I deal with women, so I can't afford to say that lightly, and I'm not the kind of character who can say that softly.

"That's right, and I wonder what Lion's up to by now?

"Oh, yeah... maybe not when you got Uncle Borderline's letter? Assuming you got the letter, are you leaving Russell City about tomorrow or the day after? Think about it, it might be hard for us and Lion to rendezvous in Gunjo City."

Obviously he saw a disgruntled face at me for changing the subject, but the look quickly returned and began to predict Lion's behavior. And the last one spoke with great pleasure about how Lion thought of panicking.

"Dear Tenma, in a few moments, it looks like Mr. Chris will be up from the bath. Amur is waiting with a brush, so no doubt...... by the way, what is the city (...) of Russell or Gunjo?

Speaking with Kane for a while, Aura came to let us know when Mr. Chris was taking his bath, while asking what the city (...) meant. Apparently, he came out in conversation with Jeanne and the others, but Aura didn't know what that meant. So he seems to have snuck in to ask me at the same time as reporting to me, and he definitely cares about Jeanne and Mr. Leni.

"Now they call it 'city', but they used to say 'city'. It seems that the cities of Russell and Gunjo today were not originally developed by towns and villages, but rather had a market to sell crops, handicrafts and hunter-hunted prey of the surrounding towns and villages, with the participation of merchants and adventurers as the size of the market grew and the inns and dining halls that aimed at them developed into one city. As a result, it is said that the method of calling has changed from" city "to" city ", which means a busy place."

"Yeah... that made sense"

Speaking as he remembered what he had looked into when he lived in Gunjo City, Aura was impressed as she spoke like a loose voice between them.

"Tenma only lived in the boulder, and you know it well. There are quite a few people who know things that have changed from the market, but not many people can go into that much detail."

"Ha! Maybe Amur got ready to clean up early because he didn't know what the city meant?

I can't see Amur in the carriage waiting for Mr. Chris to take a bath, but maybe Aura's right.

As Mr. Chris came out of the carriage wiping his hair, he followed up with Amur as well. I guess I finished cleaning while Mr. Chris was dressed, but the time has definitely been shortened in the last few days, and if I say only to clean the carriage's bath, Amur's strength will be second only to Aina's.

"Well, why don't you take a bath?"

There has been no Amur assault since Mr. Leni joined us, so I'm glad to be able to take a bath in peace. Rather worrying, it can be Aura more than Amur. Instead of Aura storming me with a sketchy heart, I'm pissed off at Mr. Chris and Amur each time because they always accidentally come into the bathroom or a changing carriage on the street. To Jeanne, it seems that Aura notes the number of accidents in the bathroom, and I guess she intends to submit a note to Aina when she returns from this journey.

When I got out of the bath, I was ready to eat, and it seemed like I made it at a critical time. The main thing was BBQ today, so if I hadn't made it, it would have been a meal without the main thing.

At the end of the meal, he went to bed early, but this time he wanted to enter Gunjo City as soon as possible, so he decided to leave the watch to Suralin, Shiloumal and Solomon, plus Suralin to command ten golems. Besides, the men put up a tent outside the carriage to sleep so that they could respond immediately if they needed anything.

"Then let's leave tomorrow at the same time as the sun rises and get into Gunjo City before noon. Then dissolve!

On my signal, each of them headed to their own bunk. Well, regardless of the women sleeping in the carriage, the men have to put up tents that will be their beds, so we have to get into work from now on.

When I finish putting up my tent, I sweat, but there's no way I'm taking a bath in the carriage because it's an area of the women, and I have to wipe my body with a cloth wet with water and put up with it until the women wake up in the morning. For once, there is a way for me or my grandfather to magically prepare hot water and bathe it in this place... but I have been solemnly since the accident of being screamed at by Aura, who came out of the carriage as if I had anticipated the timing, as long as there is nothing like it. Incidentally, it was Grandpa and Lion who were seen naked at that time, and it was an accident where they could see him posing naked from the front on condition. All this time on the boulder, the accidental Aura was sympathetic from everyone and the two seen on the contrary were criticized. Well, the two full-on posings were ugly even from the same sex, so I laughed at them for feeling good.

I put up with just wiping sweat for those reasons, but in the morning the women use the bathroom first, so the men's bath really gets slow. Besides, I'm scheduled to arrive in Gunjo City by noon tomorrow, so I may not have time to sweat slowly.

"That's a battle with time..."

I fell asleep whining about that...

"I wonder why this is happening..."

Slalin woke me up in the middle of the night. Slalin, who woke me up, seems sorry.

The reason I was woken is because of Shiloumal and Solomon. These guys, they started a perimeter watch after we calmed down, but they found a herd of pigs along the way and destroyed them. I don't know about the devastation, but pigs are recommended to be exterminated as a vermin around here, and the damage to pig crops doesn't actually sprinkle, so that's not much of a problem there. The problem was that there were multiple swarms of pigs that had been destroyed, and that many wolves had approached them because they had been caught smelling the blood that had gone out when they had been destroyed.

There's a shilowmall here, so the wolves are just asking this one for a far-roll now, but it'll be only a matter of time before they try to strike.

"Unfortunately, increasing the number of golems to heighten perimeter security, pigs retrieve into magic bags all the time. I'll keep a bag with a few Solomons, slurrins and pigs, so you can leave me far away. When you leave it, crack the pig's belly and spread the smell. You don't have to go out of your way to risk hitting us, but if it's safe to feed, there's gotta be a way out of here. That should cut the majority, but don't hesitate to slap the guy on his way!

When I gave the instructions, Slalin picked up the bag and rode Solomon. And Solomon, rising into the universe, swirled over the wolves, then hung a pig to guide him and flew away somewhere.

"I knew you got caught a few heads and left... Shiloumal, you must get ahead! Jump inside those guys and kick them all over your head!

"Wong!"

Until earlier, Shiloumal, who had fallen asleep looking at his belly as if to reflect, listened to my orders, and stuck with all the stigmatization back and rushed to the wolves.

"Pigs too, but wolves too many, too?

Grandpa came out of the tent thinking about that while watching the wolf being kicked.

"Is the fight going to be over now?

Grandpa said he had noticed the wolves in the first place, but he came out slowly ready because I was handling it.

"If you were awake, I wish you'd come out soon"

"Even if I left in a hurry, I wouldn't have had anything to do. As long as you're looking at it slowly, it's not a problem."

"Well, you're right. Besides, it's the slurins and the golems that worked, so it's like I've been watching you bluffing too... yes!

Most of the wolves were starting to escape, so I asked my grandfather about Shiloumal and decided to build (...) a bathroom while I could.

"I should have done this from the beginning."

Three walls were made of dirt magic, and the last side was hung with warm curtains to replace the walls. And in the space inside, I set aside the liquor barrel I used to use instead of the tub, filled it with hot water and built a bathroom. And I immediately took off my clothes and took a bath.

"Noooo! I didn't know you were going to take a bath while I was doing chores!

"I can't let you two in the boulder at the same time, so Grandpa hang in there till I get up."

"Nooo... then you'll have to reheat the water before I go in!

"Copy that! Ah! And when Slalin returns, tell him to collect the rest of the defeated pigs and the wolves in one place."

"People are rough...... well, should I think of it as a bath bill. And I'll keep my voice on Albert and Cain. It's pathetic not to have a bath."

That's what Grandpa said, he went to the tent to wake them both up. Maybe it's more than half a lie that those two are pathetic, really to make them help collect pigs and wolves. Maybe he's going to make it easy to sort.

"Albert, we're up!

"Finally... we're running out of time"

My grandfather woke me up. I was happy at first to hear that I was going to take a bath, but I looked terribly disgusted when the conditions for getting in were heard to be pig and wolf recovery work. Well, they woke me up all of a sudden and made me do a stinky job. It will be hard for you to wake up.

"Well, it's easy to just divide what the golem brings into magic bags for each size, but the boulder smells like blood. I can smell your clothes."

Albert turned to the bathroom with his face to the smell on his clothes.

"I can't believe it, this is the end of the job, right?

Cain comes to visit me worried, but the truth is there are still pigs left. However,

"I'll do the rest with the slurrins, so you can go back to the tent."

It's harsh to tell boulders to go back to collecting again in the bath, and there are a few more pigs left. I hate to smell it after a bath, but I have no problem keeping the remaining pigs with me without sorting them out. The rest of the pigs are going to be used for our meals anyway.

"Still, enough pigs not to go seventy? Besides, it's a bunch of regular pigs and dashboards... I've never heard of it before, but it's the same creature, so maybe that happens. So, wolves are about thirty. Most of them fled or left, so if they'd all gone together, there might have been a hundred."

I expanded my 'exploration' to explore the whereabouts of the wolves, but it seemed that I had already fled quite far away, and only a few herds were caught up in 'exploration'.

"Maybe the 'Great Forest' anomaly has affected you so far?

I may have overthought it because it is quite far from the "Great Forest," but that was the only cause I could think of, so I decided to report it to the Guild in Gunjo City just in case.

"Phew... it was good water"

With that in mind, Albert came up from the bath with a satisfied face as he retrieved the golem he had put out for the treatment of pigs and wolves.

"If Albert's up, we have to do his last job."

"Hmm? You still got something to do?

You thought you'd get caught up in your last job, Albert slowly retreated and asked as you distanced yourself from me...

"You don't have to help me with anything else. My last job is to just wipe the body of Silowmall and Solomon"

"Well, then, you don't have to be without me"

Albert, with a reassuring look on his face that he didn't seem to be able to do anything about it, went back to his tent with a shitty feeling before I changed my mind.

It should be noted that my next grandfather, who took a bath, took a sip of the liquor he poured into the glass as soon as he got out of the bath, snoring in the tent as soon as possible.

After the hunt, when we called Shiloumal and Solomon, who went straight back to the lookout, Solomon came honestly, but Shiloumal, who seemed to feel washed, tried to escape in the opposite direction at first sight...... stored in a slalin. Most of all, the spitting sillowmall in front of me was making fun of Solomon when he saw his body just wiped with a wet towel. Even for me, I want to wash Shiloumal whole, but if I do it in the middle of the night, it will take me till morning, so I'm going to put up with it until Gunjo City. As a compromise, this time I just wiped the sillowmall with a wet towel.

In addition to the usual dirt, Shiloumal is dirty in the blood of pigs and wolves, with mud and grass that he arrived at when he was rampaged in the hunt, and at one time the dirt did not fall off, so much so that he washed and wiped the towel nearly ten times and finally the surface dirt became less noticeable. So it didn't fall until it smelled.

"Suralin, when you've got time in Gunjo City, let Jeanne and Aura help you clean up Shiloumal, too."

He spoke to Slalin in a small voice as he watched the wiped Shiloumal leave me. And early that morning,

"Oh... hey, Tenma. That, what?

I stopped greeting him on the way. I looked at Chris fingering him, and there was a bathroom there that I forgot to break in the water.

"Hmm... you said you were leaving early in the morning, and in the middle of the night, just the guys, I enjoyed the outdoor bath"

It's a simple bathroom, so it's not as good as saying an open-air bath, but for Mr. Chris, if you take a bath looking at the night sky, I guess that's something worth taking an open-air bath in. But...

"Chris... at least stop making exposure habits all over the city"

Amur was scared of me. But the idea seemed to be not only Amur, but also the general thrust of a group of women other than Mr. Chris, who were all watching Mr. Chris as he pleaded.

"You don't have that kind of sexuality!

"But Chris, when I said something like I wanted to use the bathroom, which is going to be round just a little windy, and the men were nearby, I couldn't help but suspect it was a weird hobby."

At Leni's pointing, Chris conceived, and looked at the faces of Amur and the others again,

"I simply wanted to take a bath in an open place!

shouted. And right after that, I told Amur, "After all, I have a dew habit! They said," I was plucked and pulled into the carriage bathroom.

"Well, leave Mr. Chris' sexuality alone... shall we just leave? Meals can be made and stored, but when it comes to the city of Gunjo for that matter, I say we eat something delicious."

So we left the camp. Of course, the bathroom has recovered the warm curtains and the barrel instead of the bath, and the dirt walls have been destroyed. Because if you don't, you could be abused by some weird guy, and you could be the monster's bunk.

I talked to everyone that it was only a little later than planned but it would be acceptable, and I had breakfast outside of your Albert, but in the meantime Mr. Chris kept pulling and eventually Leni persuaded me to come out.

Chris, who stopped the pull, was explaining a lot about what he said earlier when he came out, so we were just listening without saying anything. I can't wait to say something weird and if they occupy the bathroom and toilet again.
