156. Hot spring trip (3)
After the meal, we decided to go to the hot spring together.
Ethan hurriedly headed for the miraculous hot spring with tired eyes. I was mentally and physically exhausted from eating too much food made by Sepia, so I wanted to quickly soak my whole body in hot water.
“Huh, I’m tired. See you all.”
“Yeah, then, see you after the hot spring. Ethan.”
As Sepia headed for the dressing room, she grabbed Hesia’s hand and pulled it. In the locker room, Hessia looked a little nervous surrounded by her older sisters.
“Hessiah, you’re so cute! Unni will wash your hair soon!”
“I want to go in with Ethan… .”
“No. Hessia. The hot springs are separate for men and women.”
Hessia rolled her eyes at Tia’s words. To Hesiah, Ethan is like a father. It was natural to be nervous just to be separated from Edan.
In addition, it was burdensome to be surrounded by a total of six older sisters, including not only Sepia, but also Tia, Tesha, Vivian, Anya, and Arianne, receiving affection from one body.
Soon, everyone went to the hot springs to soak.
Soaking in hot springs in winter seemed to relieve fatigue.
“Hessia… ! My sister will make sheep’s hair.”
“Sheep head… ?”
“yes! If you make this with a towel… . Voila!”
Soon, Sepia also made and wore sheep’s hair like Hessia. Hesia looked at the towel rolled up on Sepia’s head and widened her eyes.
“Wow… ! cute. Hessia!”
“Am I cute?”
“Yes, yes, you are really cute. Sepia, can you make a sheep’s head for me too?”
Hessia laughed awkwardly at Tesha’s reaction. Sepia made a sheep’s head on top of Tesha’s head as well.
“Tesha unnie is cute too!”
The three buried their bodies deeply in the hot spring, wearing sheep’s heads side by side.
“Hessia is the cutest. Like a lamb!”
“Oh, thank you, Sepia unnie is cute too!”
“Hessiah, I am the mother sheep and you are the lamb. Would you like to call me mom?”
“Ugh… ?”
Hesia, unable to understand Sephia’s intentions, was puzzled. Tia crossed her arms and muttered as she looked at Sepia. I was full of energy as I secretly tried to seduce the child to take over the mother’s place.
“It’s not cute at all because it’s done in sepia.”
“her? Tia, no damage at all? Because it’s not true.”
“Look in the mirror. It’s not like a sheep, it’s like some kind of dull cow.”
Tia’s vitriol began again. Either way, Sepia snorted.
“Yes, Ethan likes girls with big breasts.”
“I like women with big breasts. It’s not that I don’t like cows. To be honest, would you be embarrassed about that? That’s just right for me.”
Compared to Sepia, Tia is on the small side, but there was no denying that it was a size well above average.
“What, what cow? The expression is really cheesy. How can you not say anything in front of Hessia? You’re like that, so let’s not talk to Ethan.”
“I beg your pardon? You are the one who broke the rules in the Coalition. A surprise kiss, really… . How is that different from a confession? While everyone decided to wait for Edan’s choice.”
“What did you say. You really wrote a shortcut. You were the first to break the rules.”
Tesha had to intervene as Tia and Sepia growled. Only Hesiah, caught between the two, looked at Sepia and Tia with anxious eyes.
“Both of you, stop. Are you coming all the way here to fight? apologize to each other Come on.”
“no. Tesha. Tia first called me a cow. It’s Tia’s fault.”
Then Anya spoke to herself.
“Suddenly, it came to my mind, I think my chest is a bit cumbersome. It’s inconvenient to fight.”
It was a reaction like a female warrior who likes to fight. However, everyone was shocked by what he said.
Even at that moment, Ariane looked at her chest once and let out a sigh. Soon, she cautiously opened her mouth.
“That… . I have a question.”
“What is it?”
At Arianne’s words, everyone’s eyes turned to her. Receiving that gaze, Arianne twisted her side hair. I was somehow embarrassed to ask.
But, if not now, the opportunity seldom came. After losing my hometown, it’s rare for friends to talk openly and honestly, and this kind of story has almost never come up as a topic.
“that… , that is… Well… . It’s a bit embarrassing.”
“Tell me honestly. Anne.”
Encouraged by Tesha’s words, Anne asked cautiously.
“Also… , So do you like girls with big breasts?”
“Of course. There is no one in the world who doesn’t like a woman with big breasts.”
Sepia was given an elated horse. Pride oozes from his words.
“Arianne, don’t listen to sepia. Because there are tastes in the world.”
“right. Anne. Come to think of it, Tia is right. Some guys like girls with small breasts. One or two per country? Isn’t it, one per continent?”
Anne seemed quite shocked by those words.
“A man who likes small things is such a pervert.”
Vivian watched the conversation between the four women and smiled. It had been a long time since Vivian had seen Sepia talking so excitedly, except when she was with Ethan.
“Hey, I just thought of this. What do you all like more, cats or dogs?”
Tesha subtly changed the topic for the shocked Anne. It was Van Tesha’s habit to be considerate of others.
“Of course it’s a cat. You have Jizo. Dogs wag their tails at anyone.”
It was Sepia’s opinion. In particular, Sepia, whose eyes resemble those of a cat, tended to prefer cats. Then Tia intervened.
“I am a puppy. Cats have savage eyes. Like anyone.”
“Tia, don’t fight. You also look fierce.”
“I never said sepia? Do you have any qualifications?”
Anne replied after contemplating whether the two of them growled or not.
“I like both, but if I had to pick one, it would be a cat. What about Tesha?”
“I like dogs.”
With that, they were divided into dogs, Tesha and Tia, and cats, Sepia and Anne.
“Do Anya, Vivian and Hessia like cats? Do you like dogs?”
Anya asked, touching her chin.
“Is the tiger over there a cat?”
“yes that’s right. Tigers are felines.”
“Well, I think I like cats better. I tamed Daeho last summer vacation, and he was pretty cute back then!”
Not everyone was in a mood to believe that. Tesha’s gaze immediately turned to Vivian. Three cats and two dogs.
“I… .”
“Are you a cat? Vivian, right?”
“I’m sorry. miss. I’m a dog person.”
“her? Why? Vivian.”
Vivian answered without much thought.
“You are loyal.”
“Dogs wag their tails at everyone.”
“We promised to call it a spaniel, not a puppy. After all, all puppies become loyal when they grow up.”
That resolute tone left even Sepia at a loss for words.
Now, only one Hessia was left. Everyone’s eyes turned to Hessia. The cat vs dog debate was going to be decided by Hessia alone.
“Hessiah, then does Hesia like cats? Do you like dogs?”
Hesia felt burdened by everyone’s stares. It was an atmosphere where it seemed that even a wrong word could lead to something big.
“I mean that… .”
“Hessiah, do you prefer cats? right?”
“Sepia, don’t force it on me.”
“What kind of compulsion is this? Tia? Don’t act like a puppy again.”
Hessia only rolled her eyes here and there.
“I like both dogs and cats… .”
Hessia answered in a tearful voice. Tesya clapped her hands in unison, as she felt like she would cry if she pushed her even further.
“Then, I’ll end the cat-dog debate here. Let’s all enjoy the hot springs.”
The debate came to an end in a disappointing atmosphere.
* * *
Reus had his eyes on the message. There were many messages from the goddesses today. I knew the reason without even asking.
[The most beautiful goddess wants to keep the channel on.]
[The Sea Goddess agrees with this.]
[The Goddess of Wisdom also agrees.]
These goddesses are really… . Are they voyeuristic patients?
Whether the goddesses want it or not, this is a matter of privacy. Naturally, Reus had no intention of enjoying the hot springs in front of the goddesses.
[The most beautiful goddess said that she would support her if she turned on her channel.]
[The most beautiful goddess claims that this is an unfair treatment.]
[The most beautiful goddess… ]
In particular, the reason why ‘the most beautiful goddess’ did this was obvious. It must be because he wants to see Edan enjoying the hot springs.
There were many reasons for impurity.
Although not as explicit as anyone else, the ‘Goddess of Wisdom’ showed interest in Ethan. She was a goddess who started to be interested in Edan from the moment he defeated the Giant Goddess with his wisdom.
“Sorry, but this is a matter of privacy. The channel ends here.”
Protest messages poured in until the channel was turned off. Ignoring all the messages and ending the channel, Reus headed for the hot springs.
After managing the channel, it was Reus who came into the hot spring belatedly.
Arthur, Ethan, and Sonny were talking heatedly for a while. The subject of the conversation was a debate about what ‘a man’s true weapon’ is.
“Of course, a man’s weapon is a sword. That’s cool.”
“What are you talking about. A man’s weapon is a stick. Bongsul is the foundation of all weapon skills. The one attached to the lower leg is also a rod. Yeoui-bong that gets smaller and longer.”
“Yeoui-bong? What is it, Sonny?”
“There is such a thing.”
Sonny was actively protesting Arthur’s words. And unexpectedly, Ethan did not hold the sword against the man’s weapon.
“The weapon of a true man is an axe. Ignorant and cool.”
Reus was dumbfounded.
‘Ethan, that bastard uses a sword, so why is he sucking an axe?’
However, Ethan’s taste was firm. Arthur is a sword, Ethan is an axe, and Sonny is a stick… . It was a situation where the word three people three colors fit well.
In fact, Ethan’s ‘weapon of a real man’ was a tank, but he couldn’t explain the tank, so in the end he compromised with an axe.
It was Ethan who liked things like robots, tanks, and dragons. Combining those tastes, Ethan’s favorites were dinosaur robots and tank transforming robots.
Reus, who was soaking in the hot spring, watched the trio raise their voices and said a word.
“Tsk, are you guys really saying something pathetically stupid? A real man’s weapon is a spear.”
At Reus’s words, Arthur argued as if he couldn’t lose.
“The window looks ugly. A sword, of course.”
“If it is a man, it is unconditionally a spear. Swords and knives are for girls only. Arthur.”
“What? Isn’t it cowardly because the spear is long?”
“If you feel unfair, you can also use a spear.”
Suddenly, Reus burst into laughter. Being with Ethan and Arthur made me feel childish without even realizing it.
“By the way, Ethan. Why did you choose an ax as a man’s weapon while using a sword?”
Sony said it was questionable.
“Yeah, the tank… .”
“Tang… , What?”
“no. The ax is just nice. How cool is it to be able to split opponents. The ax does the difficult job that neither the spear nor the sword can do.”
Ethan tried to explain roughly and move on. Sonny was puzzled.
‘Isn’t it the same as being able to split an opponent with an ax or a knife?’
In any case, the four men did not narrow their opinions until after the hot spring. After the hot spring, the four returned to their respective rooms.
Hessia was fast asleep on the bed. Ethan stroked Hesia’s hair.
“Chicken… . Marsit… .”
At that talk in his sleep, Ethan laughed. After enjoying the hot springs, the night was getting late.
I wanted to fall asleep next to you. However, sleep did not come easily.
Then the crystal ball sparkled. I did something, but it was a text from Vivian. The text was from a long time ago.
-Sorry for the late night. Can I talk to you for a minute?
-uh? what’s up vivian
– You haven’t slept yet.
-Yeah, I can’t sleep.
Soon, a text came from Vivian.
―Wait, can we meet and talk?
-I’ll wait in the garden. Ethan. There is a story I want to tell just the two of us.
A story you want to tell just the two of you?
Ethan was puzzled and headed to the garden. Against the background of the dark blue night, Vivian’s outline was dim.
“Vivian… . What’s up? What do you want to say?”
“That’s me… .”
Vivian hesitated for a moment. He seemed to have a lot to say, but he couldn’t open his mouth easily.
“First of all, I want to say sorry. Sorry for calling you late at night.”
“no. It was a car where I couldn’t sleep either.”
Ethan shuddered and stretched. Vivian’s breath rose in the chilly air of the winter night.
Then Ethan quickly drew his sword. Something strong hit the black blade.
If it wasn’t for the super intuition of battle, it was a surprise attack to the extent that I couldn’t react.
