66 – Unpleasant Misunderstanding
Chapter 66 Unpleasant Misunderstanding
「Hafuu…」
Malta leaked a pleasant voice while submerging into the hot spring. This is a hot spring near the mermaid settlement. It is a secret hot spring where you can’t go by land, and you can’t go by sea because you’ll be fascinated by the mermaids. Malta is in a place only mermaids can use.
Mermaids have the impression that they are always immersed in seawater, but they also had the feeling that they felt good when immersed in the hot spring.
「Hnnh……」
When she stretched, her moderate swelling chest shook a bit. Her fresh and youthful skin is exposed, and there’s sweat flowing. Her body is dyed red because of the hot water, and her well-ordered face was blushing, giving a cute impression to Malta who has a strong-willed impression.
「Ahhh… it feels good. To think there is such a good place.」
「Ehehe.」
And the one who said so with such a melting voice was Magali, who is submerging in the hot spring like Malta. She shows a careless expression which normally she never shows.
If it’s Alistar, he’ll never let his guard down even when he’s immersed in a hot spring, so you can see the difference in acting ability between the two.
Unlike Malta, Magali has long black hair. She puts it upward to avoid soaking it in hot water. Malta knows her figure that always smiling, but looking at her defenseless smile, it somewhat makes her happy.
And her chest that’s smaller than Malta’s, unfortunately it didn’t shake. However, because she put her hair upward, the sexiness of her neck that can be seen is very great.
Malta looks at her with envy, the grass is always greener on the other side.
「But, is it okay for me to use it first…? Isn’t better for the other mermaids to use it first…?」
After remembering that Malta is nearby, Magali acts innocent right away and says something considerate to others. Of course, she wants to use it first.
「It’s okay! After all, Saint-sama and Alistar had saved my sister… we mermaids were saved by you two!」
「No, such a thing is… (hmph).」
Magali is being humble while throwing out her nonexistent chest.
By the way, since it was Alistar, who was manipulated by the holy sword, that solved most situations, it may be the holy sword that should be praised.
「Hey, Saint-sama. Do you have a long relationship with Alistar?」
「Let’s see. We have an inseparable relationship (I want to sever our relations as soon as possible though).」
「I-is that so. T-then, can you tell me what kind of person Alistar is?」
「Eh?」
When Magali stares at Malta in wonder, Malta’s cheeks is dyed in red not due to the hot spring.
「Ara, are you perhaps…」
「N-no! It’s not like that…!」
「(She’s easy to read.)」
Magali turns her uninterested eyes on Malta who shakes her hands and makes the hot water splashing while blushing.
「(Still, her preference is bad. To think she got caught by that ill-natured man…. I definitely won’t if it was me.)」
Eww, Magali frowns at a position that is completely invisible to Malta.
However…….
「(Well, he won’t get what he wants if the girls that love him increased. Let’s support her.) Sure, let’s talk about it.」
「Really!? Thank you!」
Magali, who feels like being purified, suffers when Malta shows a lovely smile.
It was when Magali and Malta were excited by the topic of Alistar.
「Tsk. Damn, they just keep apologizing… I can’t relax at all…」
A sound of someone that pushes his way through the hot water while mumbling can be heard. Fortunately, Malta was listening seriously to Magali’s words, so his coarse voice didn’t reach her ears.
However, since the splashing sound can be heard, the two of them turned their eyes to that direction.
And the one who appears from the steam is…
「「Geh.」」
「Alistar!?」
As one would expect, it was Alistar.
Alistar and Magali look disgusted from the bottom of heart the moment they met as usual.
Malta turned her face red and took one step backward.
「W-w-w-why are you here!?」
「Well, sorry. I was surrounded by Herge-san and the others over there. I couldn’t stay at that place, so I tried to change the place a bit to enjoy the hot springs… but, I never thought you were here.」
To Malta who’s shaking violently, Alistar tells her the truth.
At first, he was enjoyed the hot springs with Herge and the knights, a little away from the two of them. However, because they were manipulated by Pamela and raised their swords at him, Alistar received a fierce apology frenzy from them. He couldn’t stand it and got irritated.
Especially Herge, who hit Alistar with a hatred feeling because of his feelings toward Magali, he dogeza-ed with momentum in the hot spring. Alistar escaped because it got troublesome.
Thus, it was unexpected that Magali and Malta were here…
「(Is that true? Are you sure you didn’t come to see Malta?)」
「(I won’t do something that can lower my evaluation just for a temporary sexual desire.)」
「(……I wonder about that.)」
While Alistar and Magari were talking with eye contact, Malta hugged her body in panic to protect it from the line of sight.
……Alistar is not looking though.
「W-why are you so calm, Saint-sama!?」
What surprised Marta was the state of Magali who was calm even if Alistar came. She didn’t even try to hide her body or take distance like Malta. For her, she’s talking to him defenselessly.
To her words, Alistar and Magali look at her blankly.
「Well, you see…. there was a hot spring in our village. At that time, we often went in together.」
「You went in together!?」
Malta is startled.
What’s with that village?
「Ah. Perhaps, it’s like a public bath, so there’s no gender distinction? If so, then I understand why Saint-sama is fine when bathing together with a man…」
Malta takes a sigh of relief.
However…….
「No? I don’t go into the bath together with men except Alistar. I’m not a slut.」
「No no! Alistar is also a man though!?」
Surely you jest, to Magali who said so while laughing, Malta violently shook her hands and head. She even forgot to hide her body or take distance and then approached the two of them.
Her fine figure can be seen clearly, but fortunately Alistar is not interested, so there’s no problem.
「Well… then, I’m going out.」
Alistar said so and tried to get out quickly from this situation.
However, Magali stops him.
「Well, why the hurry? It’s not that wide, so why don’t you soak in here?」
The reason why Magari says so is that she want Malta and Alista to get closer.
「Malta-san. You’re fine with that, right?
「Eh!?」
Malta was surprised.
When she looked Magali, she’s winked at her mischievously.
Malta who saw it misunderstood that she was supporting her…….
「I-it’s okay …」
「Ehh…」
She nodded a bit while blushing.
Alistar, who was enthusiastic about leaving, had a blatantly unpleasant look.
「Please do your best. Since Alistair is dense, he won’t notice it unless you go aggressively. Also, there is a strong rival called Silk-san.」
「Eh!!」
Magali came near her and secretly gave her encouragement.
Alistar, who’s good looking and is kind inside (or that’s how she thinks), seems to be popular.
Indeed, his wet hair and dripping with sweats figure looks cool, it makes her beating fast with just looking at it. In addition, there were many times when she felt kyunkyun when touched by his kindness.
If that’s the case …
「…………」
Malta takes a glance at Magali and Alistar.
Magali is rooting for her, but the distance between them is close. No, she doesn’t feel any kind of romantic feelings from them though…
「(That’s why there is no gap between the two …!)」
Bathing together without worrying about each other’s nakedness, that’s like a married couple!
She’s concerned about Silk, but the biggest enemy is… Magali!
The distanc between Alistar and Magali is close even now, it’s a distance where they can look at everything if they try to see it.
「(… Ara? I feel like there’s an unpleasant misunderstanding …?)」
「(I can’t lose!)」
Although blushing, Malta pushes her way through the hot water and gets closer to the two while guarding her moderate chest.
