The next day.
I lightly knocked on the door of Shizuku-chan’s room. It’s like starting a musical.
Knock, Knock!

“Let’s make a hot spring.”

Open the door.

“. . . ! Shina-san!”

A rattling sound comes from inside the room, and the door opens.
I was wondering what I should do if I was told to go away, but that wasn’t the case, and Shizuku-chan came out in a hurry.

“Shizuku-chan, are you okay?”

“Yes, my body is fine. . .”

“Well then, let’s have fun together today.”

You promised me yesterday.

“Fun. . .is that a hot spring?”

“Yeah. I don’t know the details either, but it seems that everyone in the Northern Knights thought about it. I was wondering if Shizuku-chan would like to join me.”

“Together. . . . ”

“Yes. For the time being, leave aside a lot of things. It seems that making it has something to do with us to make it today. That’s why I want Shizuku-chan to come too.”

At my invitation, Shizuku-chan’s gaze wandered a little.
Shizuku-chan seemed to be thinking about various things, but she nodded.

“Um. . . if it’s not a nuisance. . .”

“It’s not annoying at all. I’m happy to be with you.”

“. . . Yes.”

So.

“Shizuku-chan. Before we do anything fun together, let’s change those clothes first. Is it okay if we enter the room?”

“Ah. . . Yes, please.”

Shizuku-chan seemed surprised when I suddenly asked her to change clothes, but she invited me into her room.
When I entered the room, I placed the basket in my hand on the low table in front of the sofa.

“I’m sorry if Shizuku-chan likes dresses and heels, but I thought it would be better to wear clothes that are easy to move around in today.”

Yes. Shizuku-chan’s outfit is very cute, but it’s not overwhelmingly suitable for creating a hot spring.

“I wish I could have prepared better clothes, but this is the only one. . .”

While taking out the clothes from the basket, I showed them to Shizuku-chan.

“. . . Is this Shina-san’s?”

“Yeah. For the time being, I’m going to bring something close to a new one. . .”

. . . Do you like it?
After all, today’s Shizuku-chan’s dress is also very beautiful. Soft lace with delicate embroidery. The heels are also shiny.
And yet, this is my town girl outfit. It is very intimidating to suggest such an outfit.
But, Shizuku-chan smiled happily. . .

“I’m happy to be with Shina-san. . .”

Cute.
The softly smiling face is the cutest.

“Good. Then let’s choose clothes.”

Shizuku-chan hesitated at my words, but she chose clothes.
And like that, Shizuku-chan who finished changing her clothes. . .

“It suits you very well.”

The design is too cute for me to wear, so the one piece that I couldn’t wear in the end looks great.
I was proud of the clothes Shizuku-chan wore.
When Shizuku-chan changed clothes, I also changed her clothes just a little, and tried to match the colors and shapes of the accessories to match, but somehow it was completely different.
I feel like I’m a town girl, but Shizuku-chan feels like a rich man’s daughter who came incognito. She looks good.

“Cute.”

I looked at Shizuku-chan and smiled.
It’s a miracle that such a cute girl is in front of me. Amazing.

“Okay, then let’s go!”

Yes, I hold out my hand.
Then, Shizuku-chan put her hand in mine.

“Ah, that”

I grabbed her hand and tried to start walking, but Shizuku-chan withdrew her hand.
Besides, huh? When I looked at Shizuku-chan, she smiled shyly.

“Shina-san is also really cute.”

“Ah, is it this color that Shizuku-chan chose?”

Show her the cloth wrapped around my waist and nod.
I chose the same color as Shizuku-chan, so it’s definitely a cute color.
Shizuku-chan muttered, ‘It’s not about color. . .”

Like that, when I left the room, there were people from the special squad, so I greeted them and took Shizuku-chan with them.
I’m sorry for always taking Shizuku-chan without permission, but Thruster-san should be doing the negotiations with the special squad.
Ryleigh-kun politely asked Thruster-san yesterday as well. Politely, yes, with an eye like he was looking at trash.
It seems that the members of the special squad are now convinced by Thruster-san’s words and Shizuku-chan’s own will.

“Good morning.”

“Saint-sama, good morning!”

When I went down the stairs and got out of the tower, Hurst-san and Ryleigh-kun were waiting there.
The usual expressionless Hurst-san and the bright voiced Ryleigh-kun.
When Shizuku-chan confirmed those two, she replied timidly.

“. . . . . Good morning.”

It was a small voice, but Hurst-san and Ryleigh-kun responded properly and nodded back.
And then, leading me and Shizuku-chan, we moved forward.

“Shina-sama, over there.”

“It looks like we’re going to walk for a while, is that okay?”

“Yeah. I’m fine. How about Shizuku-chan?”

“I’m fine now that I’ve changed my clothes and it’s easier to move around.”

While talking like that, it’s about a three minute walk.
When we arrived, we were on a hill right next to the Knight’s fortress.
The gentle slope continues, but only one place looks like a steep cliff.
It seems that the hot spring is planned to be located just above the cliff.
The scenery that spreads out below is. . .

“It’s a superb view. . .!”

Grasslands swaying in the wind and a straight horizon.
You can see the Knight’s fortress on the for right, but it’s out of sight even though it’s close, so you can’t feel its presence.
I looked down at it and excitedly called out to Hurst-san who was next to me.
Hurst-san kindly responds to me.

“If we put up a partition here, it would be no problem to make a bathtub outdoors.”

“Certainly, that’s right.”

First of all, there is a cliff ahead, so you can’t see people above unless you get close to the edge of the cliff.
Properly make partitions on the left and right and make a dressing room.
That way, even though it’s hidden well, the person who entered the hot spring can enjoy the expansive scenery. You can get both a sense of security and a sense of openness. . .!

“I’m looking forward to this.”

It’s great to have a hot spring here.
Imagining the future makes me smile.

“Well then, Shina-sama, I will explain what will happen this time. Garez.”

While saying so, Hurst-san called a member.
It was a chestnut-haired young man. . .

“Vice-commander! You won’t kill me if I talk to her today!?”

“I only allow ranks, names, and things related to hot springs.”

Hearing Hurst-san’s words, a young man with chestnut hair said, ‘wow! I did it!’ and raised his voice.
Rather, I wonder if it was said that just talking until now would kill you. Scary.

“I, um! The other day, when you were making bread gratin, I called out to you! Um! I had minced meat sauce!”

“Oh, it’s that person.”

“You remembered me! It’s an honor!”

In my memory, I feel like he was the center of everyone’s excitement.
It’s like when this person talks, everyone gets excited. He’s kind of a mood maker.

“First battalion leader, Garez! Thank you very much!”
