Chapter 14 P1 – Open-Air Mixed Baths Do Not Exist in The World of Yuri Games
“Let’s relieve the fatigue from training in the hot springs!”
With that said, I immediately went to soak my tired body in a hot spring deep in the mountains, but… For some reason, a naked Rei was sitting right behind me.
“…”
“…”
The question is, why the hell I, a man, is sitting together in a hot spring with a naked heroine even though this is a Yuri game world?
“… (Trying to harm myself – now loading)”
Of course, it ended up in failure. Because apparently, Arshariya is trying to prolong my life by creating a layer of air in front of my face, separating my face from the water.
A demon’s whole body is made of magic operators. Thanks to that, they can at least activate simple magic without a magic device by just controlling their body. Well, the thing is, the hardest part of fighting against the demon is also how they could activate such simple magic, though… At any rate, all I can say right now is that I cannot die because of Arshariya. Thus, I reluctantly raised my face from the water.
The dim light sways inside the lanterns, lightly illuminating the hot springs. These lanterns were probably lit by Master or the three Alfs… Adding to that, the moonlit night and lights are reflected on the surface of the cloudy water, creating an atmosphere.
*Clunk*
A sound entered my ears. Behind me, a beautiful girl who did not wear a single thread on her body made a slight movement.
Below, I see the ripples hit my arm. The smooth skin of a girl is reflected in the corner of my vision, and our body temperatures are transmitted to each other from the faint contact between our shoulders.
“Haa… haa… haa…!”
With my eyes wide open, I look at Rei with a sideways glance while sweating profusely.
S-she is not thinking of anything strange, right… T-the situation won’t turn strange, right… T-this world is the world of a Yuri game, right… I-if I had to, I would have no choice but to stop my heart at a speed that Arshariya could not react, but… Can I do such a trick…? C-can or not, I have no choice but to do it…!
“O-Onii-sama…”
Being called out all of a sudden, I react with a startle.
“I-I am your brother, and y-you are my sister! In other words, a sibling!”
“Ano… Although we are indeed in such a relationship due to the circumstances of being from the Sanjou Family… We are actually distant relatives who are not related by blood… Article 734 of the Civil Code only prohibits marriage for 『Direct blood relatives or collateral relation by blood within the third-degree 』… Also, although there are many obstacles in marriage between a man and a woman… O-Onii-sama and I indeed can get married without any problems…”
Faintly, tears welled up in the corner of my eyes.
T-this girl has researched it… E-even though there is no need for her to look for that kind of thing at all… S-she really did it… S-she even studied civil law for that… Are you perhaps aiming to become a civil servant too? (Life extension treatment by escaping from reality)
“A-ano, I don’t mean this in a strange way… I didn’t come here thinking Onii-sama was here… Astemil-san also said, 『Hiiro? Doesn’t he already get out of the hot springs?』… A-and I can’t see anything because of the steam… I am so sorry…”
That damn elf!
I hold my breath to keep my calm. Normally, Rei only should go to a hot spring with a girl. Why? Because this is the world of a Yuri game, not an ero game or a gal game.
If I saw a CG showing the heroine soaking in a hot spring with a man who got sandwiched between Yuri appeared on my screen, the moment it was displayed, I would break the screen before my heart stopped, and they will bring me to the hospital with tremendous speed soon after.
“Ano… But, I am happy to be able to take a bath with Onii-sama like this…”
With a serious face, I put Kuki Masamune’s blade on my heart.
“Taking a bath with family… I have longed for something like this for so long…”
Hearing that, I quickly put back Kuki Masamune with a smile on my face.
As if wanting to be spoiled, Rei gently placed the back of her head on my shoulder. Her black hair, which got a little wet and cooled by the outside air, tickled my shoulder. However, that hair, which had become heavy due to absorbing the moisture of the hot water, retained its luster while her fingertips danced on the surface of the rippling water like an ice fish.
Rei closed her eyes with peace of mind. Then, her fingertips suddenly touched my shoulder and slowly traced it, as if confirming my existence.
“You know, Onii-sama. My family consists of only Snow and Onii-sama… Someday, let’s take a bath together… the three of us…”
“Absolutely no (I am a Japanese who can say no).”
This kind of thing should barely fall into the category of family love. After judging that, my breathing returned to normal, and my whole body relaxed.
“Rei,”
“Yes?”
“I’d like to know about the Sanjou Family’s magic eyes… 『Epic Daybreak』.”
*Splash*
Hearing my question, Rei completely turned around, making a splashing sound.
“W-why did Onii-sama know about the Sanjou Family’s magic eyes?”
“No… Do not look here…!”
“I-I am so sorry…”
I would have seen all over your body if it was not for the cloudy water, you know?
Blushing, Rei covered her chest with both hands and turned around.
“It was Master who told me about it. That woman basically knows everything, after all. And it is because I want to be stronger. I am working hard to open the magic eyes of the Sanjou Family, 『Epic Daybreak』.”
