Continued Super Public Bath

My body has turned into an amazing combination: a muscular Amazon physique but with the impressive anatomy of a well-endowed guy.

There's no mystery I can't solve!

That's because I can skillfully break down any mystery with my [Strong Acid] ability, dissolving it instantly.

Setting that aside, after a safe bath, I met up with three college girls in the tatami-floored relaxation area.

"Oh, here he comes! Ezuki-san, over here!"

"You got to soak in the hot spring? That's great, isn't it?"

"Yes, Coach."

"Sorry for keeping you all waiting. Oh, thanks, Ruka."

It seems Ruka prepared something for me, as she immediately handed me a drink when I joined the group.Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

"So, everything went smoothly?"

"Yeah, a young part-timer at the store lent me a bath towel. After covering myself, I could relax in the hot spring. Huh?"

"What's wrong? Something happened?"

As I talked, I noticed Nina-san, intrigued by my behavior, asked me about it.

"Well, when I was in the salt sauna, the music playing for meditation was bothering me, so I used salt as earplugs. It seems there's still some salt left, and my ears feel a bit crunchy."

"Ah! Then I'll clean your ears. I have cotton swabs because I was cleaning my ears earlier."

"Hey, that's not fair, Machi-chan!"

"Oh, come on. It can't be helped. I'll let Ruu go first, so you two can take turns, okay?"

"Yeah, sure! Thanks, Machi-chan."

It looks like Ruu and Serai-san will take turns cleaning my ears.

..

"Alright, Coach, I'll start cleaning your ears."

"Yeah, go ahead, Ruka."

[(rustle, rustle swish, swish)]

(Oh, this feels so good. It's so relaxing that I might fall asleep like this.)

Why is ear cleaning so incredibly pleasant?

It's because the skin inside the ears is very thin, and nearby, nerves connect to various parts of the body and the brain, forming a complex maze. They call this the vagus nerve. Ear cleaning is so enjoyable because it stimulates this vagus nerve.

"Hello, Tsunami-san. I'm Ezuki. I apologize for not responding to your messages, even though you contacted me several times."

Upon apologizing, Tsunami-san covered her mouth with her hand, [Eh!?] in surprise, and stared at my face again. Her eyes wavered with anxiety, confusion evident on her face.

"There was a bit of trouble, and I ended up like this. Due to that, I became mentally unstable, avoiding contact with people for a while."

"Wha Is it really, really Ezki-san!? But, certainly, the muscles are like Ezuki-san's no, even more incredible. But, could it be?"

Tsunami-san's gaze was fixated on my busty chest. Suddenly transforming into this appearance would undoubtedly be shocking, especially coming from a man.

"As I mentioned before, I used to train my body by diving into dungeons. But in one of those dungeons, I was influenced by something not good. That's why I'm in this state. However, despite my appearance, I'm still the Ezuki who promised to learn from you, Tsunami-san."

"So, it really is Etsuki-san. Ah, but, um, what should I say"

"Oh, if it's about my appearance, don't worry about it. Thanks to them, I was able to recover."

I turned around, acknowledging the three college girls who were watching us from a distance, concerned. We exchanged glances and nodded.

"Oh those ladies were here with Etsuki-san before at the shop"

"Yes, that's correct. So, Tsunami-san, can you forgive me for not responding? Also, even though I've changed like this, can you treat me the same way as before?"

"Ah -"

"Tsunami-san, a customer has arrived, so please return to work."

Reacting to that voice, Tsunami-san bowed her head to me, uttered a quick "Peko," and swiftly returned to the shop with a "Pat."

"Oh well. The massage lady left, huh"

"Coach Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine, Ruu. I couldn't get an answer, but it seems Tsunami-san was more shocked than me. In this case, it might have been better not to ask for a response"

"Yeah, that makes sense. Well, it can't be helped, right? But today, I feel a bit reluctant to show up at that shop again"

"Then let's change the mood and grab a meal. We had a lot of hot pot yesterday, and even lunch was ramen, right? Hmm Oh! How about something lighter like soba?"

"Yeah, Machi-chan. Soba sounds good to me."

"That works for me too!"

"Alright, let's all enjoy some soba together!"

I was able to meet Tsunami-san and talk to her. However, due to her being at work, we couldn't have a leisurely conversation, and I couldn't get a response. But, considering the situation, it's probably impossible. I'm used to being disliked by people, but the thought of losing the connection with Tsunami-san, who had treated me kindly, made me feel lonely.

Well, even if I think about it, there's nothing I can do. Let's just be grateful for the hot spring today.

"Hey, Ezuki-san, there's an open spot here!"

"Oh, I'm coming."

I have 3 lovely women in my life. So, there's nothing to feel lonely about.
