Chapter 17: Baths: Prepare for the light and mist

……

After that, it didn't take long for Black to recover. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The heart that had been beating again stopped, and the black was still the same.

However, Black did not lose his memory, and his evaluation of Teresia Ramen was retained.

"This ramen dish is truly refreshing, and I know you've worked hard, but that's why I'm going to give it as fair a review as possible."

"In my eyes, the winner is Theresia."

Although it was hard to accept Terexia's super spicy food, I am afraid that no one would suspect that Kuro was lying when he finished the ramen dish without even making a comment.

Since this match is a battle for the main palace around Black, it is Black's subjective speech that determines the winner, so there is no reason to be unconvinced.

"Then, the second round of the harem battle begins!" Toko announced enthusiastically.

"Hey, I haven't had enough of it."

Black sighed as he looked out of strength.

"Don't be so impatient, black, although cooking is one of the compulsory courses for brides, a good bride can't just cook, right?"

"But after the last game, everyone seems to be tired and sweaty, and even in the dark, it doesn't seem to be easy to taste the food."

"So, Hei go take a shower first, I'll explain the rules to the others first, and then I'll tell you."

"No, since you're all sweating, you should wash it first."

"No, no, no, we've decided, let's wash it first."

With a big smile, Toruko half-forcefully pulled Kuro into the bathroom in the cabin.

Castlevania is a rather gigantic high-tech spaceship left behind by plasma clusters.

On an ordinary ship, there will be a shortage of water, and even if there is a purification device, I am afraid it will not be enough for bathing.

However, the baths in Castlevania were large, and he was located on the lower level of the cabin, and the huge bath resembled that of a luxury hotel. At any given time, the bath, which is as big as a plunge pool, is filled with clear hot water.

It seems that this set of devices is also maintained by using the energy of the elves.

Of course, there is no male and female partition in the baths in this castlevania, and there was one when the plasma cluster was used, but it was removed by the Tsuko after it was hacked.

The reason is that only two men still have to use the cubicle, wasting such a large bathhouse.

After all, it's not like the huge plasma team, which often has to take a group bath.

If someone is washing, they put up a sign, and it has been like this for months.

Of course, the lucky pervert scene like in the novel has never happened here, at least not before.

Anyway, Kuro was thrown into the changing room of the bath by Toko.

"That guy is extra tough today."

However, it's true that I sweat a lot, and it's basically because of the effect of eating that bowl of spicy ramen.

Sweating from eating ramen, Kuro doesn't feel uncomfortable. But after all, I was sweating, and it was necessary to take a shower.

Thinking so, he unbuttoned his shirt.

At this moment, Toko returned to the other five girls.

Putting on a white coat and glasses, Tokuko-sensei is back with the blackboard pulled back and explained the game.

"So, it's rare to throw black into the bathroom, let's quickly explain the rules of the game."

"Touzi's senior, he is still so energetic."

"Of course, I'm not going to be depressed by losing the fight for the main palace, it doesn't matter to me whether I win or lose, because I'm a pervert, even if I get hacked (beep-) I don't care, it's better to say that it's exciting."

"Hey, what is it? It's okay not to have this kind of vocabulary in healthy novels!? ”

"Please don't worry about that kind of detail, in short, you understand, Xiao Meiyi, I am the best person to coordinate with you."

"This—undeniable."

Torako is indeed more suitable than anyone else as the coordinator of the members of Kuro's "harem".

Because it's a pervert, no, it's a gentle and cheerful personality, and there's no contradiction with anyone. And Toko is also very good at taking care of people, Theresia, Elf, or Mei Yi, who is also a trainer, she can eat very openly.

This is something that Mei Yi can't do, and someone else probably can't do it.

"Anyway, the second round is—"

Teacher Toko wrote two big characters on the blackboard.

"Charm!"

"Charm!?"

The girls all let out a sound of surprise.

"That's right, glamour, the most important thing for a bride is glamour. No matter how good the housework is, the lack of charisma can easily lead to a period of burnout, which in turn leads to the tragedy of men working outside the home all year round, empathy, and the disintegration of marriages and families. ”

"I always feel so realistic......"

Therefore, charm is the key, and being able to make her husband throb her heart at all times is a quality that a bride must have. And for black wood, it is even more important to show the charm of a woman. So—"

Looking around at the girls who were staring at him, Toko suddenly pinched her waist and stood in front of the blackboard and announced loudly -

"You guys, take my turn to go down and take a bath with Hei."

"Huh!?"

"Why do you want to baptize!?"

"Of course, it's to prove your charm, and if you want to compete for charm, it's not the best to be honest. Of course, it doesn't break the rules if you want to go in with a bath towel or clothes on, but I can't guarantee the evaluation I will get if I do so. ”

"I'm not going to participate." Hikari took a step back a little shyly. "I don't really want to participate in this fight, and I probably don't have a chance of winning if I do it now."

"Ah, Xiaoguang abstained, so do others want to abstain, I personally hope that you all abstain, after all, I won't abstain." Toko smiled sinisterly.

However, the charm of women.

Mei Yi really doesn't have much confidence in this project, first of all, because this project is too "shameless", and she is a very shy character, and she definitely can't keep calm when she faces black face to face.

Moreover, Mei Yi still remembers that Hei said several times that her breasts were too small and did not grow into ......

Although the thought of this is very popular, but compared with Touzi, his figure does have room for development.

"Then again, Teresia did you accept Toko's rules? As a brave man, you have to be seen by the Demon King! ”

"It's okay, I've already decided before. For the sake of black, I want to give up being a brave man. Theresia said resolutely.

"Huh? Give up - the brave? ”

"That's right."

Completely different from the usual Terescia, Teresia now has a gentle smile.

Fair skin, smooth blonde hair, and a figure that is not lost to Torako.

This kind of beauty has a bit of angelic innocence and a bit of demon charm.

I haven't noticed it, but when I did, Theresia's natural beauty was probably impossible to find a second among humans.

Of course, Mei didn't know that Theresia didn't actually have human blood.

She only knew that Theresia, who was not a brave man, probably wouldn't lose to any of them.

"Woohoohoo!"

At this moment, Mei Yi suddenly heard the laughter of the fairy who didn't match her.

"I can't even take a bath with the man I like, and Lord Mei is really immature."

"What kind of nonsense are you talking about, you're too shy yourself." Mei immediately shot back.

"I'm not like Lord Mei, after all, I'm the master's elf, and the elf doesn't wear clothes in the first place. It seems to me that it is already a common thing to act naked in front of the owner. ”

"You guy-!"

Mei Yi looked at this elf derived from her own personality with an unwilling expression.

On the other hand, Meloette looked very shy.

"I'm wearing clothes even if I'm in an elf state."

"That's true, but of course it's a reliable senior like me at this time."

Fairy grabbed Meroyeta's hand.

"I'll go in with you!"

"Oh, I didn't expect to see friendship between people of the same sex in this battle for the main palace, and if both parties agreed, it wouldn't be against the rules. But even if you're shy, don't go in with me. ”

"Who's going to go in with you!!"

"So, while Hei hasn't come out yet, I'll go in first, after all, I have to explain the rules to Hei, and when I come back, please decide the order for yourself." By the way, is Hopa there? ”

"Oh? Do you want to make a wish to Hupa? Hearing Toko's call, Hopa suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

I saw Touko leaning into Hupa's ear and saying something.

"Well, I see, for the sake of black, I helped with this!"

"That's great!"

I don't know what the hell is going on, but Toko, who is excited, runs down the stairs of the cabin.

……

At this moment, Kuroze walked into the bath unhurriedly.

In the locker room, Black began to think about Theresia.

Although she had known for a long time that Theresia had another side, she didn't expect that because of the battle for the main palace that Toko suddenly proposed, she would give up her identity as a brave man so quickly.

So what should I do? While Theresia makes a change, Black feels like she can't do nothing.

However, he couldn't think of what he should do.

Kuro touched his chest.

If this heart starts beating again, I should probably know the answer I want.

But-

"The Demon King doesn't have a heartbeat, and if his heart beats, I'm just a little black that Theresia knows."

"I became the Demon King to protect my home, but that task was not completed, and I lost even the things I wanted to protect."

"If I don't become a demon king, I will really lose the things that I have been taken away."

Therefore, Black doesn't want to give up the Demon King, so his heart can't beat either.

"But that Teresia, you're serious."

Theresia, who gave up her identity as a brave, has changed her attitude 180 degrees from before.

It's like because I'm not a brave man, so you can't continue to be a demon king.

That kiss, and the ramen noodles made in the cooking competition, Theresia used all kinds of strong drugs to make Black regain her feelings.

Thanks to this, the heart that had been silent for a long time now became easier to beat.

"No, I have to hurry up and let this game end, otherwise my identity as a demon king may be threatened."

But at this very moment-

"Black, I'm coming!"

I heard Toko's voice from afar.

I saw Toko running towards this side naked, with the bath towel in her hand, but she didn't seem to have any intention of putting it on.

Of course, due to the ingenious fog effect on the scene, the key parts were not revealed, after all, there was no Holy Light or Dark Pastor in this kind of scene, and I was afraid that it would be blocked.

"You pervert, are you going to attack me when I come to the bath?"

"Don't say it so ugly, this is the next game. Anyway, as the first player, I'm in charge of whitewashing the black-ah! ”

Seeming to be too carried away, Toko didn't notice that there was a wooden basin on the edge of the bath, she stepped on it, and then slipped and fell.

Thankfully, Toko ran fast and the tub was placed on the edge of the bath, so she was lucky enough to fall into the water and make a huge splash.

It didn't take long for Toko to float up as if she had fainted.

For some special reason, the bath towel just covers Toko's chest.

But even so, the high bulge, and the snow-white belly, the scattered strands of hair flowing in the water, and the faint gasp in the quiet bath.

If you look closely, Toko is also quite an attractive person.

Originally, Black didn't realize this, but because of what Teresia did today.

"Poof!"

His heart skipped a beat, and Black instinctively swallowed.

"It's okay, Toko!"

Just as he was about to walk over, Black's heart beat again.

Hei's face flushed, this kind of feeling was something that the Demon King would never have had - a feeling of shyness.

Stimulated to the atrium by the charm of women, Black has to blame the culprit of all this, Theresia, in her heart.

If it were another woman, even if it was a kiss, Black's heart wouldn't beat a bit.

If it was Terexia, who claimed to be a brave man and was hostile to the Demon King, she wouldn't let Black have any heart.

However, Teresia gave up her identity as a brave man at this time and faced herself with the smile she had when she was a child.

If there was anything left to regain his feelings in Black's already dormant heart, it would be the smiling face of Theresia when she was a child.

The heart starts beating and of course it is accompanied by severe pain.

It is not the body itself that hurts, but the pain called feelings that have been left in the heart over the years.

Black is not without feelings, what he doesn't have is just "selfishness".

And "selfishness" is also a necessary part of the relationship that constitutes love.

If you don't have selfishness, you won't be possessive of anyone, and you won't have the idea of "hoping to get her" for any woman, or "hoping to be liked by her", which is why black as a demon king can't fall in love.

It's never been his own selfishness to dominate the black.,It's the reconquest of the lost territory that the demon king is burdened with.,Revive the thoughts of the demons.。 (To be continued.) )
