Hachinan tte, Sore wa Nai Deshou! Chapter 77 part2

One and a half months passed since I married Elise and the others.
The marriage ceremony and the wedding reception were troublesome, but fortunately my newly-married life is going well.
The surroundings, especially Roderich, are muttering 『Lord, there must be an heir soon』 like an incantation, but we are still 16 years old.
Since someone like Wilma is 14 years old, there’s no need to hurry that much either, I believe.

『Although you think that, you end up hurrying as much as possible to get it done as soon as possible.』

For convenience the right of succession has been set to the children of my elder brothers, but it’s planned that they will be lowered in precedence once my children are born.
Even though my elder brothers will take over in the worst case, there seem to be already retarded nobles who are asking stuff like 『Does Earl Baumeister have some chronic disease or such?』.
Perhaps they are harbouring the foolish dream of grasping the power of the Baumeister Earldom themselves by manipulating my elder brothers, who are deemed to be estranged from politics, and my young nephews.

『Wend, your strong presence promotes the development. There are plenty of stupid nobles.』 (Erich)

Since Erich-nii-san, who participated in the marriage ceremony, usually resides in the capital, he has apparently many opportunities to get in touch with such stupid nobles.
He whined to me while sighing.

『I want you to make children fast.』 (Erich)

『Are even you saying that, Erich-nii-san?』 (Wendelin)

『Yes, I am. It also has to do with the future of my and your other elder brothers’ children.』 (Erich)

Since their succession rank is high, they will be dragged into the disputes and struggles over the Savage Lands concessions if something happens to me.
As father he likely can’t approve of that.

『Keep at it, you must have children.』 (Erich)

『Haa…』 (Wendelin)

It was a questionable topic for a talk between siblings, but nobles might be such creatures.
If there are no children, the troublesome matters in the succession will multiply.
If one considers the ugliness of that dispute and the scandals as well as incidents created with that as reason, decent nobles likely won’t want to participate.

『Ahahaha. I’m doing my best. There’s also master’s spell.』 (Wendelin)

Thus it’s my belief that I kept at it for this one and a half months.
Opening the sealed page of the magic book left behind by master, I’ve been made to recover my vitality while fulfilling my duty as husband and noble every day.
Currently the nude Ina was lying next to me on top of the bed.

“Children, eh…” (Wendelin)

“Do you want one, Wend?” (Ina)

When I’m remembering my conversation with Erich-nii-san, Ina asks while look apologetic.
However, there’s probably no necessity to hurry that much since we are still one and a half months old newly-weds.
It seems that the wife will feel ashamed if no children are born, but that’s something far down the road.

“That will happen in due time. Or rather, isn’t it fine if you are able to get pregnant until around 20 years in age?” (Wendelin)

“As expected, if I can’t get pregnant with your child in four years, you will be advised to get a new concubine.” (Ina)

“I see, that’s how it is, huh? But…” (Wendelin)

It’s a vulgar way of talking, but she should get pregnant naturally sooner or later since we are doing what has to be done.
Even so, Ina’s expression doesn’t look good.

“Are you worried about something?” (Wendelin)

“Look, these days our mana grew, right? At the beginning I was in high spirits, but isn’t there some side effect to it…?” (Ina)

The rise of mana obstructs the conception.
Certainly, I couldn’t say with 100% that there isn’t such side effect.

“However, the growth of mana stopped, didn’t it?” (Wendelin)

“It stopped indeed. However I’m completely satisfied since my mana reached intermediate level in one month.” (Ina)

Among magicians there’s around one person in ten at intermediate level.
Even if the spells, she can use, are few, Ina appears to be happy since it contributes to an increase in fighting strength.
Come to think of it, she recently beat Roderich in a match with spears.

『As expected of Lady-sama.』 (Roderich)

Roderich smiled, but I was are of it.
When he has even a little time to spare, he will restart his spearmanship training again.
Roderich was actually a sore loser.

“Seeing that the rise of mana stopped, you will definitely get pregnant normally.” (Wendelin)

“Yea, it will surely be as you say.” (Ina)

“For that reason, let’s have sex once more.” (Wendelin)

“Wend, isn’t there a way to express it a bit ((better)), I wonder?” (Ina)

I’m not so sure that there isn’t, but I can’t talk like the protagonists of the books Ina is usually reading.
I wasn’t able to say such embarrassing whispers of love as I would die out of shame as originally Japanese.

“Hmm, what shall I do?” (Ina)

“Wait a minute! It’s not that, right?” (Wendelin)

I think that’s not typical for the age of my body.
My body is still 16 years old after all.

“Just kidding. It’s a lie. I will also be troubled if you go more than scheduled to Amelie-san’s place.” (Ina)

“Amelie-sister-in-law-san? What about her?” (Wendelin)

“Did Amelie-san’s mana grow, I wonder?” (Ina)

“Not at all.” (Wendelin)

“Wend, you have no intention to hide it, right?” (Ina)

Although I realized that it’s a bait, I pretend to be caught in it purposely.
Ina noticed that right away though.

“So, it was exposed, eh?” (Wendelin)

“Good grief. Since the time I met you for the first time I thought that you were the ultimate softie.” (Ina)

“Even now it’s mostly like that, I believe.” /Wendelin)

“That’s true as well. It’s fortunate that you took someone like me as your wife.” (Ina)

Right after that we try going at it since the night’s still young, but now that we have started, it might be the rule of the world that we won’t be done with just once.
And once again we are greeted by morning like always.
It has become a custom to enter the morning bath together after causing a disastrous scene on the bed as usual.

『Something like a mixed bath with women. Wend, your dick should be plucked off!』 (Erwin)

Erw hurled cursing words at me when it was only us, but as expected he had the discernment to not mention it when there were other retainers present as well.
From their point of view, it’s desirable for me to have skinship with my wives so that children are born quickly.

“Ina, your hair is beautiful.” (Wendelin)

“Thank you. It might be my only pride as woman.” (Ina)

Usually she ties them up in a bundle, but Ina’s blazing-like red hair is free-flowing without any curls.

“Occasionally Katharina’s hair explodes*.” (Wendelin) (T/N: Probably meaning that it curls up like mad if the knot is undone 😉 )

“She spends time every morning to put it in order.” (Ina)

Her ojou-sama drill hair is actually very frizzy. Such is the reason.
Every morning she forcibly arranges it into her usual hair style.
Her way of arranging her hair by releasing heat with magic makes me think that she can open a beauty parlour, if it’s on Earth, without even needing perm machines.

“The hair adjustment agent, you created, is very nice, Wend.” (Ina)

Shampoo existed in this world, however conditioner didn’t.
Noble children and their-likes arranged their hair after shampooing it with something like perfumed oil.
Accordingly I produced a natural conditioner with vinegar as ingredient and gave it to my wives.
As its popularity is great, Artur-san has sniffed it out before I noticed and is making plans to sell it after improving it.
He had a keen scent of smell as ever.

“That’s great. Then, let me wash that hair.” (Wendelin)

“I can do that myself.” (Ina)

“At least once per week is fine, isn’t it?” (Wendelin)

“Thanks.” (Ina)

In addition, when we are passing in front of the bedroom on our way to the living room once we left the bathroom after washing out bodies together, Dominique was coaching a new maid how to make the bed.

“Got it? In the current Earl Baumeister household there are many concerns which are kept secret like that.” (Dominique)

“In short, master is peerless!

“Your voice is too loud.” (Dominique)

Once Ina and me listen attentively, Dominique lists the important points to the young maid.

“Master is peerless… In other words, there’s a chance for me and Dominique-nee-san though!”

“I’m a married person, but…” (Dominique)

“However, master is craving for your beauty, Dominique-nee-san!”

“Humph!” (Dominique)

Dominique drops her fist on the head of the young maid who made an imprudent remark.
We felt like we saw an unexpected side of her.

“Do you get it? Master won’t do such immoral act.” (Dominique)

I have the discretion to at least not make a move on someone else’s wife.
It looked like I was very highly assessed by Dominique, but if I consider the matter with Amelie-sister-in-law-san, I end up thinking that she shouldn’t appreciate me that much either.

“Wend?” (Ina)

“Being overestimated by Elise’s childhood friend and maid is painful.” (Wendelin)

“Isn’t it alright if it’s about Amelie-san? That person is currently single.” (Ina)

“Uuh. Thank you.” (Wendelin)

“Don’t cry…” (Ina)

I’m slightly moved to tears due to Ina’s kindness.

“Got it, Rhea? You were recommended because you are my cousin. If you receive punishment for unnecessarily spreading rumours, my evaluation will end up falling as well.” (Dominique)

There are many situations where one will be criticized in Japan if they got their job through connections, but if they fail in those, the honour of the people, who recommended them, will be sullied as well.
It’s not simply easy or enviable in the least.

“Besides, if there are rumours going around about master being peerless, it will increase the high-pressure approaches unnecessarily.” (Dominique)

“There’s also a possibility that the number of merchants and nobles, who offer their daughters for strengthening their relations with him or due to their desire of concessions, will grow”, Dominique explained to the new maid who's her cousin.

“That means, it might actually make Elise-sama’s position difficult.” (Dominique)

A noble’s concubine, who has entered ((the harem)) later, will slight the legal wife by receiving affection.
That throws the harmony within the household out of order.
It was a story that often occurred in noble society.

“Me and you, Rhea, are receiving such blessed treatment because Elise-sama became the first wife of master.” (Dominique)

“Certainly, the pay is decent, isn’t it?” (Rhea)

Given that the work location is in the Savage Lands at the kingdom’s southern tip, they were paid larger wages than average.
If one makes me name it, it’s a bonus for being in a remote location.

“Uh hum, therefore make the bed quietly and learn the other tasks quickly as well, please.” (Dominique)

“Got it. After looking at the disastrous scene on top of the bed, the special bonus must be hush money.” (Rhea)

“Humph!” (Dominique)

Dominique lowers her fist on Rhea’s head again.

“The contents of the job, I was taught, seem to be flying around my happy memories of childhood or such.” (Rhea)

“Then don’t say anything unnecessary!” (Dominique)

“Dominique-nee-san, you are strict…” (Rhea)

She has been just scolded by Dominique, but the skill of the maid called Rhea is good albeit her mouth's bad.
Just as instructed, she quickly completed the bed making.

“The sheets are amazing, Dominique-ane-sama*. However, if they are this amazing, I can maybe become master’s concubine as well.” (Rhea) (T/N: She addresses Dominique a lot more politely now, though her mouth's as yappy as ever)

“Humph!” (Dominique)

Dominique drops her fist on Rhea’s head for the third time.

“It hurts, Dominique-nee-san. It seems like my memory of going for a swim at the Lehmann Lake when I was five years old has vanished.” (Rhea)

“It hasn’t vanished, now has it? We are going to the next room.” (Dominique)

Ina and me immediately moved from in front of the bedroom to the living room, but our topic on the way was entirely about the new maid.

“That girl, I wonder if it’ll be alright with her?” (Ina)

“There’s the part of her loose tongue, but her work skills were good. Dominique will likely train her well.” (Wendelin)

“I guess that’s true as well.” (Ina)

Once the two of us move to the living room, the breakfast preparations are carried out by other maids.
However the life of having various things in the mansion taken care of by maids is something I can’t get readily used to.
Due to my original poor person’s mentality, I’m somewhat not able to settle down.

“Master, what do you prefer today?”

“Rice.” (Wendelin)

“For me a large serving of rice!” (Armstrong)

It reached the point that we can freely choose between rice or bread for the meals in the mansion.
I’m mostly going with rice, but even doushi, who recently has spent less time in returning to the capital, requested rice from the maid while holding out his own large rice bowl.
However, doesn’t this person need to be at attendance in the royal palace?

“Doushi, is there no official business in the capital?” (Wendelin)

“Actually there is, but it’s not particularly necessary for me to appear there!” (Armstrong)

Doushi, who is also the kingdom’s 『Ultimate Weapon』, seems to basically have free time as long as it doesn’t reach the last stage.

“Me not having anything to do is a proof that this county is peaceful! By the way, where’s Burkhart-dono today?” (Armstrong)

“On holidays.” (Wendelin)

Burkhart-san can’t come here immediately if I don’t go fetching him with 『Teleportation』.
Without any such plans for today, he is enjoying a holiday with his newly-wed wife for a while since he has recently been working non-stop.

“What are your plans, Earl Baumeister?” (Armstrong)

“Today is a full rest day.” (Wendelin)

“In that case we will go hunting in the Demon Forest!” (Armstrong)

“No, I won’t go. It’s my vacation after all.” (Wendelin)

Certainly, although it’s also my hobby, hunting in the Demon Forest is my job as well.
If I’m on vacation, there’s no need for me to go there.

“What are you saying! How boring!” (Armstrong)

“Instead we will go to take a dip in the ocean though.” (Wendelin)

“Dip in the ocean?”

Since it’s actually a leisure declaration without any prior notice, I didn’t tell Elise and the others about it either.
They appear to be slightly surprised after hearing today’s plan from me all of a sudden.

“Wendelin-sama, taking a dip in the ocean is about going swimming at the hot season, isn’t it?” (Elise)

“Yes, it is.” (Wendelin)

Even in this world the custom of swimming in the ocean exists.
However, given that it’s far from Breitburg and the capital, the majority of people make do with nearby rivers and lakes.
It seems that events, where rich people go out to the ocean after deliberately taking a vacation, exist as well.

“I went to the eastern ocean before when I was around 7 years old.” (Elise)

“As expected of Elise’s home.” (Ina)

Ina admired Elise for having the experience of swimming in the ocean.
If you consider the expenses and time to deliberately move to the ocean from the capital, which is located inland, there weren’t that many people of the capital who have experienced swimming in the ocean.

“How about you, Ina?” (Wendelin)

“I swam in a river close to Breitburg.” (Ina)

“Same for me as well. I can’t easily go to something like an ocean.” (Luise)

It seems Ina and Luise have no experience with the ocean.

“And you, Wilma?” (Wendelin)

“I have caught fishes at a lake close to the capital.” (Wilma)

Playing in the water for Wilma has apparently to include catching fishes as well.
It’s probably because she becomes hungry if she swims around.

“How about you, Katharina?” (Wendelin)

“I was there once since I was close to the ocean in the West. However, is it something that enjoyable?” (Katharina)

“That’s probably because you went there by yourself, Katharina” (Wendelin)

“W-Wh-Why d-do you k-know that!?” (Katharina)

If I’m asked why, it’s because I was originally a loner.
A loner recognises another loner.
In my thoughts of the Katharina before she met with me, I can’t imagine her going to the ocean with a group of friends.
And swimming in the ocean for me was about making salt at the beach of the Savage Land’s southern tip or eating seafood after catching it.

“(Going by yourself to swim in the ocean has a high level…)” (Wendelin)

I can’t talk about other people, but I admire it for being something significant in a certain meaning.
Katharina’s loneliness power was high.

“The Earl Baumeister household has a private beach after all.” (Wendelin)

“There was such a thing?”

“I created it. Let’s enjoy our holidays by also having barbecue for lunch.” (Wendelin)

“That appears to be interesting.” (Armstrong)

Given that doushi promptly supported it, we departed to the private beach,which is located at the southern tip of Baumeister Earldom with 『Teleportation』 right after breakfast.

◆◇◆◇◆

———————————————- End of Part 1 —————————————————-

“It’s the best weather for taking a swim in the ocean!” (Armstrong)

Once we transferred to the private beach with 『Teleportation』 when we finished preparing after breakfast, doushi was very delighted by the white sand beach and the ocean with its high degree of blue clearness.
Although he is the oldest among us, he frolicked around like a child the most for some reason.
Currently it was winter, however the Savage Lands are only slightly cool in the early morning even at the northern part following the major northern mountain range.
The coast-lands of the South were hot to a degree where it’s possible to swim in the sea throughout the entire year.
Even so it’s not as humid as Japan. The felt temperature crosses only a bit over 30 degree ((Celsius)).
It’s refreshing if you enter the shade of trees since it’s not as sultry as Japan. You can even call it a southern area where it’s easy to spend some time.

“By the way, what's the matter with the Erwin-lad?” (Armstrong)

“He is training*.” (Wendelin) (T/N: Not the martial one but administrative)

Usually he has the duty of guarding me, but since I want to leave the leading of the feudal army to him in the future after all, he continued to train under Thorsten regularly.

“He is quite enthusiastic. For me something like commanding military forces is impossible though.” (Armstrong)

That can’t be helped.
It’s because doushi exhibits his fighting prowess the best by fighting alone or joining up with high-ranking magicians.
Since His Majesty is aware of that as well, he usually lets him act freely, I guess.

“Well then, if you are talking about swimming in the ocean, there’s the matter of bathing suits.” (Armstrong)

“Uncle-sama, we prepared for it properly.” (Elise)

“As expected of my niece!” (Armstrong)

Elise and the other women have brought along their own swimsuits. Even doushi’s swimsuit was arranged for by Elise.
Everyone started to immediately change their clothes after using the shade of trees as partition screen, however doushi suddenly took off his robe in front of me and began to change.
Although muscles of steel, which were tempered by training and were truly those of a body builder, enter my field of vision whether I want this or not, I don’t want to see something like a nude man.
Turning around to the back, I take off my own robe as well and start to change my clothes.

“That’s a peculiar swimsuit…” (Armstrong)

I expected it to some degree, but doushi wore an old style bathing suit that covered his body up to the elbows and knees like it was worn by the men on Earth in the past.
Mine are trunk swimsuits which were previously made by a shop in the capital.

“I finished changing clothes.” (Luise)

“That’s disqualified!” (Wendelin)

“Wend, already!” (Luise)

And since even Elise and the other girls wore swimsuits that covered them with a thick cloth up to their knees and elbows while possessing not even a speck of sex appeal, I immediately find fault with that.
Luise, who finished changing first, seems to be surprised by my swift negative judgement.

“No good, you say… Swimsuits are like this though.” (Luise)

“There’s no sensuality in those.” (Wendelin)

“I’m able to understand what you are trying to say, Wend, but if you are thinking like that, you must have prepared new swimsuits, haven’t you?” (Luise)

“Hoho, you said it, Luise.” (Wendelin)

“Gah! Did you really prepare them by chance?” (Luise)

“That’s correct, Luise-san.” (Wendelin)

I was an amateur in regards to clothes, but I’m at least remembering the general design.
Therefore I had a first-class tailor in the capital create swimsuits which are usually worn by woman in modern Japan.

“Change into those over there. It’s an order by the family head.” (Wendelin)

“Uwah~~~. There’s so little cloth. I will wear it since it’s the order by the family head, but how shall I feel about this being the first order of the family head towards me?” (Luise)

“I haven’t made a mistake. That’s because I’m family head-sama.” (Wendelin)

“I don’t particularly mind though. As this place is a private beach, there’s no one else here anyway. But, what about the size?” (Luise)

“Luise, it’s already more than one month since we married. I have at least grasped the sizes of my wives’ bodies.” (Wendelin)

“Wend, you pervert.” (Luise)

Even while saying that, Luise returns behind the partition screen for changing clothes while holding the swimsuits for the other wives with a highly-spirited expression.

“Luise-san, Wendelin-sama has told us to wear these?” (Elise)

“Even as family head order.” (Luise)

“A family head order in this place… My belly button and such are completely visible.” (Ina)

“Isn’t it fine since the important parts are hidden? Ina-chan, it suits you.” (Luise)

“Luise, you…”

“It might actually be fine as it’s easy to move in.” (Wilma)

“I’m jealous that you are able to adopt such way of thinking, Wilma-san.” (Katharina)

“I’m envious because your style is nice, Katharina.” (Wilma)

“As I’m a noble, I pay attention since I’m constantly watched by the surroundings.” (Katharina)

Noisy talking voices are audible from behind the partition screen, but finishing to change their clothes in a few minutes, they showed their appearances to doushi and me.

“I see, Earl Baumeister, you are going to popularize new fashionable swimsuits?” (Armstrong)

“No, it’s purely my hobby.” (Wendelin)

This is a private beach anyway. I don’t care whether the swimsuits, I created, are fashionable or not.
It’s merely because I wanted to dress Elise and the others.
There exists no other reason besides that.

“Umm… Wendelin-sama, uncle-sama… It’s slightly embarrassing, but…” (Elise)

“You might think so in the beginning, but I feel like it will become a fashion sooner or later.” (Armstrong)

Elise looked shy in her yellow bikini-type swimsuit.
While slouching a bit, she hid her breasts which are often ogled.
However, Elise chest is amazing, I believe.
Despite that, her waist and such are normally slender making her appear to be a gravure idol.

“Elise, you are magnificent.” (Wendelin)

“Really?” (Elise)

“There’s no one else here anyway. You can be more brazen. You are beautiful after all.” (Wendelin)

“Yes!” (Elise)

Once praised by me, Elise was very happy.

“Ina, you are lovely, too.” (Wendelin)

“Thank you.” (Ina)

Ina had an average chest, but her slender style was great since she is training her body well.
Matching that with her red hair, she looks slightly cool.
And, although she was unwilling to wear the new swimsuit at start, she’s actually wearing it unexpectedly boldly.

“Ina-san, you are enviable since you don’t have overly much useless fat.” (Katharina)

“Is that so, I wonder?” (Ina)

Katharina, who is the incarnation of petit-dieting, looked enviously at the slenderness of Ina’s body.

“Katharina, I’m even more slender.” (Luise)

“Err…” (Katharina)

“The new swimsuit fits me well, too, right? It’s directly appealing my adult charm.” (Luise)

“That’s right…” (Katharina)

Luise, who is wearing a light blue bikini, is lovely, but she’s quite obviously a different type of Elise and Ina.
It might be adequate to call her cute, but that was also her charm.

“I think you are cute.” (Wendelin)

“I’m following a different route from Elise and Ina-chan. But, Wilma, that’s nice…” (Luise)

Even though Wilma’s body belongs to the same small body type category, Wilma’s breasts are unexpectedly big.
It looks like Luise considers that aspect to be very enviable.

“If they become any bigger, it will be difficult to move.” (Wilma)

“Uuh… I’d like to say such nice thing at least once…” (Luise)

Luise sent a powerful gaze at Wilma’s breasts.

“Wilma, you are cute as well. How do you like the new swimsuit?” (Wendelin)

“It’s easy to move in. Slightly embarrassing though.” (Wilma)

Wilma, who wore a pink-coloured bikini, exhibited her swimsuit appearance in front of me by twirling around.

“As it’s easy to move in, I will catch plenty of shrimps and shell-fishes.” (Wilma)

“True…” (Wendelin)

However, Wilma appears to put priority on her appetite after all.
This private beach had abundance in seafood as it’s also the actual site where we defeated the sea dragon before.

“Umm…, Wendelin-san.” (Katharina)

“What’s wrong? Katharina, you are a shy person, so I changed it to an one-piece type.” (Wendelin)

“Isn’t this embarrassing even as one-piece type!?” (Katharina)

As Katharina is the shyest among them, I prepared a violet one-piece swimsuit for her, but she still seems to have complaints.

“It suits you, doesn’t it?” (Wendelin)

“Frankly, as wife I’m happy about that, but why is this swimsuit strongly cutting into my crotch part?” (Katharina)

“Because I designed it like that.” (Wendelin)

As Katharina’s swimsuit was the type of high-leg leotard, which was popular in the old Japan, and moreover as the cloth at the chest part was designed to be thin, it reached the point that one can tell the rough shape of her breasts.
If you ask why I made it like that, that’s because it's my hobby.
There shouldn’t be any other reasons besides that.

“I believe it suits you though.” (Wendelin)

Since Katharina looks like a domineering S going by her appearance, this kind of swimsuit fits her very well.

“Is it no good?” (Wendelin)

“I won’t say it’s no good, but…” (Katharina)

“Then, it’s the family head’s order.” (Wendelin)

“Why do you continuously stress that part?” (Katharina)

Once I try to play at once since everyone safely changed into their swimsuits, there’s a person who is tapping my shoulder.
That person was doushi.

“I have a problem with just me being left out!” (Armstrong)

“In other words, you want to wear a new swimsuit, you say, doushi?” (Wendelin)

“Don’t you have something for me?” (Armstrong)

“More or less, I do…” (Wendelin)

Once I passed several of those to him since I had them make male swimsuits just for caution’s sake, doushi chose the most improbable design from among those.
I had it created as joke. Those were minuscule black swim briefs like those worn by competitive swimming racers.

“This is appropriate for me!” (Armstrong)

Since he immediately began to change by taking off his first swimsuit before our eyes, all of us averted our looks.
Doushi, who finished changing in the blink of an eye, took a pose completely like a body builder while confirming the feel of the swimsuit. (T/N Can imagine it as the posing from his FMA counterpart)

“(I remember Elise’s and the other wives’ beautiful swimsuit appearance, but it looks like it’s being overwritten by the swimsuit appearance of doushi…)” (Wendelin)

He had an atmosphere of taking the championship if he took part in a body builder tournament on Earth, but unfortunately for him I had absolutely no interest in that direction.

“Well then, now that we changed, let’s play, but…” (Wendelin)

Next doushi took out some jar with some fluid in it.

“If I don’t apply sunscreen, it will likely be terrible later.” (Armstrong)

Sunscreen exists in this world.
They likely can’t get hold of stuff like zinc oxide and titanium dioxide like on Earth, but there are articles with high efficiency made out of plants.
As the price is considerable instead, you won’t obtain it unless you are quite rich.
Noble women go to the beach while also ((putting on)) airs, but they want to avoid having their skin damaged.

“Earl Baumeister, can’t you apply it on my body?” (Armstrong)

Since I got an impossible request from doushi, I turn my look towards Elise who is his niece.

“Umm… Elise…” (Wendelin)

“Let’s apply it on each other?”

“I approve of Elise’s opinion!”

“I agree as well.”

“I will apply it on you, Katharina.” (Wilma)

“Then, I will handle it for you, Wilma-san.” (Katharina)

However, even Elise, who is doushi’s niece, feels unpleasant to apply the sunscreen on his body.
With the skilful strategy of applying the sunscreen among themselves, the female camp escaped its pinch.
Naturally I have been abandoned.

“(I wanted to blend in with them as well…)” (Wendelin)

Having the plan of applying sunscreen on each other with Elise’s group crushed, I’m in reverse plunged into the distress of having to apply sunscreen on doushi’s body.
Doushi has no disposition towards “that”, but what’s wrong about being sad about having to apply suntan lotion on the body of a muscled, 40-years old man?

“I will apply it on you as well, Earl Baumeister.” (Armstrong)

“(That, I absolutely don’t want either…)” (Wendelin)

I’m forced into an even worse pinch.
Normally even I want Elise and the others to apply sunscreen on me.

“(Think! The method to escape from this pinch…)” (Wendelin)

In my brain, that ponders about somehow avoiding the worst-case scenario, a certain idea surfaces.
It’s a heartless method, but it’s also for the sake of getting out of my pinch.
