Chapter 2 Baths
Robin soaked in the temple's bath, his head tilted and his eyes closed.
A towel was placed on his forehead.
The bath was built behind the hall of the shrine and was an open-air bath.
The baths were built in this way in the noble courtyards of the nobles, and some cloisters were built around them to prepare banquets.
In this way, everyone can enjoy the wonderful scenery from the bath while lying on the deck chair, eating fruit and chatting.
In Sekorid, they like to have their slaves serve others with their bodies.
If you wish, you can always go down to the bath and play with others.
The advantage of the open air is that during the summer rainy season, you don't have to work hard to fetch water from other places to fill the bath, and the rain from the sky will help save a lot of time, as well as help save manpower and material resources.
So for the nobles, it was also happy when it rained.
What they hate more is winter.
In winter, due to the cold weather, the feeling after bathing is not very good, and there will be cold scenery all around.
At the same time, when the weather is colder, their pools freeze as a result.
In this case, it is necessary to hire a magician, or have a servant boil hot water and bathe in the tub or bathtub.
Many people even choose not to take a shower all winter.
In the cold and humid air, because of the thick clothes, no one else can smell the stench emanating from the body.
But Robin can't, he comes from a relatively advanced era, an advanced society.
There, he and his sister developed a habit of loving cleanliness.
What's more, after experiencing a big war, the body is also very tired.
At such a time, taking a hot bath is really the happiest thing in life.
Robin is on his back with a towel over his face.
He took a deep breath and made a comfortable sound.
When you're done bathing, you can go back to sleep soundly.
Then deal with some other issues.
In his brain, the image of Grand Duke Olga appeared.
After burning the vampire's corpse, Grand Duke Olga invited him for a conversation.
Her meaning is very clear and very simple -
It's about explaining what the vampires are doing at the Grand Duke's Manor.
Grand Duke Olga said that she did not know about this, and that she had been in the Borean Fortress all this time, after all, it was the same as the Frost Fortress, which was the border of the kingdom and could be invaded by enemy countries.
Whether it's the Sekrides or the Windwingers, they're all a threat to the Holy Beta Territory.
And for good reason.
However, for some reason, Robin instead had a strange delusion after meeting Olja.
It's like, this woman is lying.
Before the conversation, he could have plucked Olga out of the vampire attack.
The reason for taking it off is simple -
Suppose Grand Duke Olga harbors vampires, and their relationship breaks down due to some kind of gap, so the vampires want to frame her.
Well, the blasphemer also appeared at the same time in the Grand Duke's Villa.
It's hard to explain.
Grand Duke Olga wouldn't harbor vampires and blasphemers at the same time, would he?
And judging by the situation at the time, the vampires and the blasphemers were each other's enemies, and they seemed surprised by each other's existence.
The combination of these two things will make the suspicion of Aojia's participation relatively low.
Robin still hasn't figured out why Vivian was there.
When it came time to talk to Aojia, he suddenly felt that the woman who didn't leak a drop of water was too strict in what she said.
It's as if it had been made up in advance.
This had to get Robin's attention.
The previous evaluation of Aojia's poisonous snake by Arce Jr. and Mandy made him instinctively have a preconceived distrust.
However, he is not the kind of person who can judge sin by intuition alone.
Robin has figured out the key, and if Olga is lying, then there is an easy way to try it out.
And he's already arranged for Kaye to do it.
After that......
"So you're here."
Suddenly, a clear female voice startled Robin.
He ripped off the towel that covered his head.
Then, in his astonished gaze, Calista's wheelchair slowly pushed in this direction.
Behind her, Grand Arce pushed two wheelchair armrests.
This......
Robin swallowed hard and sank his body a bit.
He looked reproachfully at Arce.
I had told her not to let anyone in.
Arce pursed his lips, first looked down at the oracle in the wheelchair, and then cast Robin a "she wants to come in, I can't stop it".
"You're in a lot of interest." Calista frowned, "That's what happened, and you have the leisure to take a bath here." ”
"Mistress Calista......" Robin sighed, "listen to me......"
"Arce, you carry me down."
What the?!
Robin looked at her in disbelief.
Calista wrapped her hand around Arce's neck as she looked at Robin and smiled faintly.
"It's such a waste for one person to use so much hot water."
She lowered her head on Arce's chest and whispered, "Arce, you too." ”
“……”
This...... Although Robin had envisioned the so-called folk customs of this world, he did not expect it to be like this......
Even if you don't have a gender concept, at least you have to pay attention to your privacy, right?
However, Calista didn't seem to care about Robin's gaze in the slightest.
She gently undressed herself, then was picked up by Arce and walked down the steps outside the bath.
Robin glanced at it and quickly turned his head away.
The brain could not swing away Calista's body.
In the short time he had only had time to see for about 0.5 seconds, he faintly saw a patch of white light.
Spring scenery......
Calista's body was more than he usually thought.
When she was in a wheelchair, she was blocked by a white robe, and she looked thin and small, like an undeveloped girl.
But......
Robin's eyes were closed, and his face turned red.
His Atlantis rose from the bottom of the water without a fight.
After all, he is still a young man with strong blood.
"Is the water too hot?" Completely immersed in the water, Calista leaned against the edge of the bath and looked at Robin with a frown.
She raised her big silver eyes and looked at Robin faintly.
"Why else is your face so red?"
Before Robin could reply, Calista stirred up a splash of water and submerged her upper body in the water.
Only the beautiful collarbone and two upper hemispheres are exposed.
"But I don't feel it at all." She frowned in confusion.
"Ahem......" Robin coughed violently, then put the towel to his face as he pretended not to care.
"Maybe it's a little cold in the past two days, and after taking a shower for a while, it has become more serious."
"Then you're too weak." Calista frowned, and a stern look turned in her eyes, "Then why are you still stunned here, why don't you go back and rest quickly?" ”
"Hmmm......"
Robin thought to himself, "If I stand up now, won't you be seen by you?"
Although these two people don't know what happened.
But his Atlantis is still very strong.
How embarrassing it would be to be discovered.
Robin shook his head, "There's a saying in my hometown that if you catch a cold, take a hot shower and sweat will get better faster. ”
Calista looked at him suspiciously, a hint of concern in her eyes.
She looked sideways at Arce, "Otherwise, I'll get a doctor to come back and show him later." ”
"Yes, Lord God." Arce answered her calmly.
Then the Weeper of the Wind also stripped himself of himself.
She stacked her black robe neatly on the edge of the bath and walked slowly, soaking herself in the water.
Robin listened to the tempting splash and didn't dare to move.
In his brain, the smooth violet skin of the Wind Weeper appeared.
and on either side of the head of the Great Arce, with a pair of pointed ears.
It reminded him of the legendary elf.
"Ah...... "Calista," exclaimed, "it's been a long time since I've taken a comfortable hot bath." ”
"Yes. Mistress Calista. ”
Arce nodded silently.
"Robin. Now that you're back safe and sound," Calista touched her slender neck with her right hand and raised her eyes with her chin down, "I think you can tell me a little bit about the Santa Berta Consulate." ”
She paused, and before Robin could speak, Calista opened her mouth in dissatisfaction.
"When you speak, I think, out of politeness, that you should look me in the eye."
She said word by word, "Please, take the towel off." ”
