Chapter 54-Hot Springs and Marina's Selfishness

(TL:By Rafael)

"Yes, take it off, take it off!"(Marina)

Marina, who came into the changing room with me, pulled off my adventurous attire one after another.

I tried to stop her, knowing that resistance is pointless in the face of Marina's monstrous strength .......

"I can take it off by myself. I'm not a child."(Yuki)

"No, I have to make sure!"(Marina)

Marina lowers her eyebrows with the same vigor.

"I have to check your body. You never know where you might be injured or cursed."(Marina)

"I'm fine.'(Yuki)

"I don't trust those words!"(Marina)

Marina's immediate answer is heartbreaking.

If you promise to come back soon and then disappear for two weeks, you will lose your credibility. ......

"So just stay put."(Marina)

"Oh, ...... I'm sorry. See, I'm all right, right?"(Yuki)

I spin around, naked to the top half of my body.

"Hmm I think you're okay ......"(Marina)

"I told you so."(Yuki)

I smiled at Marina, who was touching my back.

"I'm going to go to the hot spring to sweat it out."(Yuki)

"Fine then I'm going to go back to the spa."(Marina)

Marina, who looks satisfied, walks out of the changing room with a flurry of steps.

I let out a small exhale at the sight of her, take off the rest of my clothes, fold them on the shelf, and head for the bathroom.

Marina is too innocent for my liking, which is dangerous.

No matter how much of an adventurer she is, I wish she would have a little more shame or sense of danger appropriate to her age.

"Whew... ......."(Yuki)

As I soak in the hot water and close my eyes while exhaling, I am reminded of this dizzying day.

How should I describe "Glad Shi-Im"?

How should I explain the relationship between "One Gold" and Simon?

And then there was the matter of Prince Mastoma.

Now that we know the royal family's secret, we should consider that we are already involved.

There are too many things to think about ...... and I can't seem to get it all together.

As I was mulling over my thoughts, I heard a sudden sound of water landing, and at the same time, splashes of water ......, no, splashes of hot water, were heaped upon me.

"Oh, no!"(Yuki)

I brushed the water off my face and opened my eyes to see a dim reflection of bright red hair and skin tone.

"Marina?"(Yuki)

"Yes, it's Marina but are you okay!"(Marina)

"I'm fine, thank you for worrying. So why are you here?"(Yuki)

I asked, turning my back to Marina as I covered my eyes.

'I came to check on Yuki"(Marina)

"I told you I was fine."(Yuki)

"You didn't look okay earlier, did you?"(Marina)

Marina's words were met with a small stutter.

I have often been told that I tend to show my problems on my face.

As a leader, I want to maintain a resolute poker face and stand firm.

"Silk told me to keep an eye on things!"(Marina)

"That doesn't mean you have to come all the way here. ......"(Yuki)

"D'oh!"

As I blurted out, I felt a soft thump behind me.

The shock was much smaller than usual thanks to the fact that it wasn't a dash hug in the hot spring, but the feel of Marina's smooth skin against mine made my heart jump.

"I was worried about you, you know?"(Marina)

"I'm sorry, I didn't think it had been that long.'(Yuki)

"What do you mean?"(Marina)

"Time moves differently, I guess. I haven't been in this hot spring since yesterday."(Yuki)

I felt Marina at my back and wondered how I could explain this to the guild.

I have never heard such a phenomenon.

However, the problem at hand is .......

"Look, I think it's time for you to leave."(Yuki)

" no."(Marina)

I could see Marina shaking her head as she clung behind her.

The tip of her nose, her soft lips, tickled against my neck.

How utterly defenseless and ferocious. I hope you haven't forgotten that I'm a man.

"I'm going to make you pay for the two weeks I've been worrying about you."(Marina)

These words, spun in a quiet voice that didn't sound like Marina, pricked me to the core.

When she said it like this, I felt a little weak.

After a few moments of contemplation, I relaxed and leaned lightly against Marina.

If this will dispel the anxiety I've caused Marina, it's a small price to pay.

If I give up my resistance, I don't feel so bad.

" You gave up."(Marina)

Why does Marina have such good instincts at times like this?

"Oh, God! I feel like I'm only bothering you and you're not enjoying it!"(Marina)

"That's true, too. So, princess? What do you want?"(Yuki)

"Ummm, umm, ......."(Marina)

Behind me, Marina growls a little.

'Anything is fine. You were worried about me."(Yuki)

"I don't know what to say all of a sudden. Well, ......, is it really anything?"(Marina)

"Anything I can do."(Yuki)

I nodded, and Marina growled again behind me.

"Then ......."(Marina)

With the words, Marina's soft touch left my back.

I wait for Marina's words while feeling a slight  regreteness on her moving away

(TL: Regretful indeed)

"I'm going to ask you for a favor now, okay? Can I?"(Marina)

"Yes, of course."(Yuki)

"Are you sure about that?"(Marina)

I smile at Marina's reminder and nods broadly.

"I'll take care of it."(Yuki)

─ ─ ─ ......Needless to say, this prideful garuntee later caused me a lot of trouble.

TL Note- Well the trouble should be kept for later but this hot spring Chapter was amazing....finally some fan service.
