137 133 words Laundry Day

"Phew, this is the last time."

Hang the squeezed blanket on the tree.

The weather is pretty good today, so if you dry it in the sunlight, it will dry in a short time.

When we check the position of the sun, it's just about lunch.

Blue skies as far as I can see, so I don't have to worry about rain.

It's called Laundry Day.

"And I'm tired"

5 pieces of dirty clothes.

3 pieces of cloth to be laid on top of you.

This is bigger, so it was harder than I thought.

And two blankets at bedtime.

This, too, Ciel helped me along the way heavily when it included water.

Sora was bouncing around me fine at first, but tired, and now she's asleep.

When I suggested in the morning to look for the river while proceeding to All Town, the two of them agreed.

Especially since Sora got more tense, maybe she was concerned about the dirt on the blanket she was sleeping on.

Remove dirt in the river yourself.

I washed it a few times to see if there was sand in my hair more than I thought, and it finally came clean.

Summer journeys wipe your body every day to make you sweat, but it's still different when you get dirty in the river or something.

Your whole body refreshes.

Wipe hair and body with a dry cloth and put on clothes.

If you wash the cloth you used and hang it on a tree, the washing will go away.

Ciel, too, was getting into the river and getting dirty because the water seemed fine.

Inspired by that, I was surprised when Sola jumped into the river.

Soon, I was relieved that Ciel had rescued me.

Sometimes, Sora makes reckless challenges.

By the way, Sola didn't come up slowly sinking into the water.

Go in the shade where two people are taking a break.

Ciel's wet hair seems to have dried up already.

Sit next to me for lunch.

Dried meat and root vegetable soup, made before washing.

The day before I left, Mr. Gilmouth gave me a vegetable.

You said something about nutrition.

"Delicious ~"

This is my first soup since I left Otrewa town.

It's a little hot, but that's good too.

Still, it's hot ~.

I don't know what you think while drinking soup.

The rain before this is probably a storm that will come around the middle of summer.

The fact that this is here means that the summer is half over.

In that case, we'll have to think about winter.

"I wonder where we'll spend the winter. I'm not used to it, so I shouldn't move for about two months."

The winter journey is based on moving fairly sparingly.

It is dangerous to move incorrectly because you cannot predict how much snow will fall.

Especially those unfamiliar with the journey, like me, sometimes die in the first winter.

Or they say the best reason an adventurer dies in winter is frozen death.

So if you feel the cold, wait in town or village.

As half of the summer, I think it's about two months before I can travel.

From All Town, how far will it go?

Get the map out of the bag.

One large town in two villages.

I guess this is about it if I can move.

Like the town of Otrewa, we don't know what's out there, so let's schedule something we can afford.

Cold weather can be an early year, so you have to be careful.

Is that it?

Does Ciel hibernate?

"Ciel."

Sleeping Ciel opens her eyes softly to the voice I call.

"Does Ciel hibernate?

"Huh."

This way of ringing, you don't.

"During the winter, me and Sola will be waiting in the village or town, but is Ciel in the woods nearby?

"Nya-yay."

"When the snow is terrible, I can't go see him, okay?

I hear that when it gets heavy snow, the entrance may be closed and the entry/exit will be stopped.

So I can't go see him anymore.

"Nya-yay."

I'm worried about just one, but I can't help it.

Ciel says it's okay, so let's believe it.

Mm-hmm. If it's a big town or village, it's a long way from where you can meet Ciel by looking around.

In order to meet you nearby, would you like a normal village?

Oh, and don't make the inn a little pricey.

I check the inns in the villages and towns I came by, but large villages and towns have lodging for junior adventurers.

I was going for it.

Ordinary villages had less lodging and higher prices than larger towns.

Even if it's okay because we can afford the money this year, we'll have to keep spending down, considering what we're going to do.

After all, I guess I'll have to discuss it with the traveler and ask him to register with the commercial guild.

That should steadily sell what you find and hunted in the woods.

All the butcher shopkeepers I've ever met were good people.

But Mr. Gilmouth cautioned me that I was just lucky.

After all, it seems natural to be bought and beaten if you don't go through a commercial guild.

Sometimes they say half the price of the guild.

Especially the meat hunted, the freshness is important and the price drops once you have time.

They're going to stick it in there.

So now it was a winter inn issue.

You know, you got a lot to think about.

"Puffy ~"

To Sora's voice, look around Ciel's stomach.

Sora, sleeping to be buried in Ciel's belly hair, opens her eyes and stares at this one.

"Morning, Sola"

"Pu, fu"

What a powerless squeal.

As I watched, my eyes slowly closed when I thought I wobbled with a pull.

... Could he be sleeping down?

"Sola?"

Ciel is also staring at Sola.

Sora closed her eyes and started sleeping again.

He still seemed to have fallen asleep.

"You fell asleep."

"Nya-yay."

Me and Ciel who somehow whisper.

It's about Sola, so I don't think it's going to happen if we talk normally.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Stretch your arms as far up as you want.

It's hot, but it's by the river, so the wind feels good.

I'm waiting for the laundry to dry, but I'm going to fall asleep.

So, if I fall asleep here, I'll definitely regret it.

"Let's get it out of the dry laundry. Ciel, can I ask you a favor about Sola?

"Nya-yay."

"Thanks"

Gently stroke your head before leaving the pleasant place in the shade of a tree.

When I got out in the sun, I felt the temperature go up a lot.

"It's hot."

After touching the laundry and checking, the clothes seem to be already dry.

Exactly, it dries fast in the summer sun and wind.

The blanket still feels a little wet, so later.

Goza and the cloth that lays on it was dry.

One at a time, he examines the dirt and then acts like a magic bag.

Looks like she washed it hard and the dirt is clean.

"Heh, all you have to do is really blanket"

The blanket should be dry in an hour.

Back in the shade of the tree, there are two sleeping faces that seem to feel so good.

Don't jump in there and want to sleep with me.

Well, I can't.

"Ciel, Sola. It's time to get ready for town."

When Ciel opens her eyes, she tumbles and snorts Sora, who is in her stomach.

Plus when you swing with a pull, Sora opens her eyes.

"Sora, now it's time for good morning. Is it time for you to get ready?

Ciel is stretching her forelegs long enough to relax her body.

Is Sora loosening her body by shaking her pull after seeing how it is too? I guess it's meant to be.

No, maybe you're really loose.

When I wake up, I'm shaking a lot.

Wash and clean the dishes and pans used, then punish the bag.

The blanket was completely dry while I was getting ready for the decadence.

"Well, let's go"

Considering the position of the sun, you won't be able to make much progress to town.

Well, I can't help it today.

Nevertheless, I feel refreshed about laundry for a long time.

It's nice to have dirty things clean, right?
