Garez-san, who introduced himself as the leader of the first battalion, has short chestnut hair and narrow eyes. He’s the so-called itome guy, and he always seems to be smiling.

“I’ve been thinking about it for a long time. We’re the only ones taking a bath, and I wonder how Isarai-sama and the Saint-sama are doing.”

Garez-san puts his hand on his chin and makes a thinking gesture while still smiling.

Hurst-san answered that question.

“There’s a bath, but it’s outdoors and there’s no partition.”

“That’s right. It’s behind the dormitory, but it’s impossible for a woman. We’re all men anyway, so we took off our clothes and entered there, but you can see it from the window of the dorm. No, of course, if Isarai-sama and the Saint-sama can enter the bath, then I would really appreciate it. . .”

Bash

“Kill”

“Uh”

A simple word and the sound of a stick cutting the wind.

Yes. The speed-of-sound wooden stick was unleashed before Garez-san finished his words.

Maybe even faster than the speed of light. Look, what I was seeing was an afterimage, something like that.

Hurst-san is definitely aiming for the neck right now. A normal person would probably have no life.

However, Garez-san dodged it with a back step, jumped up and ran away while weaving back and forth.

Oh, it’s a hugging somersault with a twist from the stretch.

“. . . The murderous intent and the way you move is amazing.”

Hurst-san is aiming for the carotid artery, liver, femoral artery, and places where there is a lot of bleeding and would be fatal.

It’s even scarier that the guy who used to hang out with old-fashioned Ash-san.

However, Garez-san is admirably avoiding it, and after all, it’s different for people who belong to a knight order that usually fights magic beasts.

As I watched the exchange of lives with a calm heart, Garez-san raised his voice.

“Hey, hey!! Vice-Commander!! I’ll die, I’ll die!!”

“I don’t mind.”

“I mind!! Vice-Commander, please remember! I was the one who suggested building a hot spring! Without me, the excitement would be lacking!!”

“I don’t need excitement.”

Zash

Round and round.

Oh. Moonsault.

“Look, Shizuku-chan. This is like a circus.”

“Circus.”

Shizuku-chan, who was holding my hand, had her eyes widened in surprise, so I nodded and told her it was fine.

Seeing me like that, Shizuku-chan tilted her head curiously.

Yes. Her black eyes are cute.

“Hey. . . ! I, Isarai-sama! Isarai-sama!! Don’t have a heartwarming moment between the two of you, please stop the vice-commander!”

“Eh, me?”

Garez-san, who is doing somersaults, stares at me desperately.

Really. I couldn’t help but watch, but it might be the time for the assistant homeroom teacher to come into play.

It’s like quietly mediating when a homeroom teacher and a student have a dispute. I see, there seems to be such a role.

Besides, if I leave it as it is, the open-air bath with a spectacular view will turn into a bloody pond hell.

“Hurst-san, hot spring. . .! Let’s make a hot spring. . .!”

Before I say anything to this place.

“. . . That’s right.”

As if my voice reached Hurst-san, he calmed down and lowered his hand that was holding a wooden stick.

As soon as that happened, Garez-san was good!! While screaming, he hid his body behind me.

“Amazing! The vice-commander has stopped! After all, Isarai-sama is the best!”

“Eh, doesn’t he always stop?”

“He’ll kill everyone, kill everyone!! Oh, but that’s part of the vice-commander’s manliness. I want Isarai-sama to listen to the vice-commander’s manly episode.”

“Manly episode?”

Having said that much, Garez-san lowered his voice a little.

It was the words ‘Manly episode’ whispered at a volume that only I could hear.

Yeah, I’m curious.

Attracted by those words, I put my ear closer to Garez-san.

“The vice-commander is already strong, strong, and strong, but one day, there was a time when the number of deer increased. If you leave them alone, they will become magic beasts, so we go into the forest and hunt to reduce the number.”

“So?”

“We were driving the herd of deer together, but the whole herd turned into magic beasts. There were about twenty. We had a total of about six people, five people in one group and the vice-commander. We didn’t intend to hunt magic beasts, we intended to be dealing with deer, so we didn’t have enough people of weapons. I thought it was bad, but. . .”

I try to imagine the scene in Garez-san’s words.

Six people. Since the purpose was deer hunting, the preparation and equipment were inadequate.

They were supposed to be chasing prey, but the next moment, they turned into prey. That must be very scary. . .

“First of all, the vice-commander encouraged us. As always. If you fight a magic beast with a group of five, you will definitely win. We, who were confused by those words, were able to remember the theory. If a group of people were to take on a single magic beast, it wouldn’t be a problem. So, when we knocked down one and looked around. . .”

“When you looked around. . .”

A lot of magic beasts have fangs. . .

“The vice-commander was doing nineteen.”

Well, that’s right. He’s doing it.

“The stuffed heads of the monsters displayed in rich people’s houses were lying around.”

Yes. It’s an object.

“What do you think! The vice-commander, he’s really manly!”

“. . . .I see.”

Manly episode.

It’s different from what I thought.

“Hey, Garez. What are you doing?”

“It’s nothing!! Anyway, the plan for the hot spring is perfect, and I’ll make a great one so that the two of you can enter! I’ll start looking for the source from now on!!”

Garez-san runs off leaving behind Hurst-san’s low words.

Source.

Eh? Digging from the source?

“Hurst-san, isn’t the source springing up here?”

“Yes. Right now, there is only one place in the knights’ fort. The fort is lower, so we can’t draw hot water here. This are is rich in ground water heated by volcanoes, so it will be on the top of the cliff.”

“Is that so.”

Hearing Hurst-san’s words, I saw the mountain behind me.

It looks quite far away, but that must be a volcano.

When I was nodding with a fumufumu, the word ‘Kek’ resounded there.

“You’ve been calling me since this morning. . .”

When I turned my gaze to that voice, there was Zezgard-san.

Apparently, he came here with Gyabussh.

“It’s not like I came here for you.”

“Yes. It’s for Shizuku-chan’s sake, isn’t it?”

Yes yes. I understand Ma-kun.

“Hey, those eyes!! Wait, Gyabussh!!”

Ma-kun. . . Zezgard-san was complaining about me, but Gyabussh, who was behind him, overtook Zezgard-san and approached me in a hurry.

Yes yes. You look cute today too.

“Gyabussh, how are you today?”

“Shasha?”

“Yes?”

Gyabussh, who licked my cheek as usual, looked at me like he was spoiled.

The golden eyes are so cute that you want to listen to whatever they say.

Today Gyabussh is more spoiled than usual.

I answered with the atmosphere and feeling, and now it seemed that Gyabussh wanted something from me.

That’s why I answer while stroking the bridge of his nose.

“Thank you, I am very happy.”

You can help me, it’s very helpful.

That’s why I said thank you, but Gyabussh seemed to be overwhelmed by it, and whacked his tail with a ‘bashine’ sound. . .

“What’s wrong, Gyabussh?”

“Shah!! Gaoga!!”

Leave it to me! When he raised his voice like that (probably), he moved his wings and flew away.

Where are you going. . . hmm? Is it the volcano?

“. . . do you understand?”

Zezgard-san’s eyes are dark against Gyabussh, who was expressing joy with his whole body.

The golden eyes that muttered the disturbing lines were so stagnant that I was surprised.

“Gyabussh is a fire dragon. That’s why he’s sensitive to fire, so he came today to find the source location. . . Gyabussh knows where the heated groundwater is. He’s going to dig it up. . .”

“Oh. . . That’s, yes. As expected of Gyabussh.”

He is the most important player in this strategy to create a hot spring.

But the bearer has now flown away.

I think my words were probably bad.

As if to point it out, Zezgard-san looked straight at me. . .

“What Gyabussh just said to you. . .”

“Yes.”

Gokuri, my throat sounds.

“‘Will you let me keep you warm?'”

“Keep you warm”

It’s different from ‘would you like to warm up?’ at a convenience store.

This is bad. I know immediately.

“. . . Fire dragons use geothermal heat to warm their eggs. They search for land with warm underground water, dig it, and line it with stones. There, the female lays her eggs, and the males keep them warm.”

“Lay eggs”

“. . .Gyabussh went to get the stone.”

“Get the stone”

“In other words, what Gyabussh will do from now on. . .”

Oh, I don’t want to hear.

“It’s nest building.”

“Nest building”

It’s not a hot spring.

“You. . .take responsibility.”

Responsibility. . . . . . . . responsibility. . . . . . .?

“Hurst-san. . . I’m going to the kitchen so that everyone can get better.”

Yes. See, if you give food to everyone who makes the hot spring, the work will be easier.

Escapism?

No. . . the reality is. . .because. . . I’m viviparous. . .

“Now let’s go to work.”

“I’m looking forward to Shina-san’s cooking!”

Hurst-san nodded that he understood, and Ryleigh-kun laughed happily.

Just say the words as usual.

Yes, so I was disappointed.

Even though I was still holding hands with Shizuku-chan. . .

“[Summon Kitchen]!”

“Eh, Shina-”

A momentary feeling of floating and the feeling of landing ou your feet.

After chanting, I was surprised by the voice I heard and opened my eyes. . .

“Shizuku-chan?!”

“. . . , here. . . ?”

Shizuku-chan was standing in the kitchen with me while still holding hands.

Itome- refers to someone with thin, slit-like eyes

viviparous- bringing forth live young that have developed inside the body of the parent

So she can bring other people into the kitchen! I thought that was probably the case, and wondered why she never tried.
