Chapter 1: Trying Out Talking with Demonic Beings – Part 1
Part 1
The day after obtaining the Summoned Beast──
Diablo’s group had co to the lakeside of 《Kosei》 this ti. It was about an hour walk downstream from Fort Bridge Ulg.
There were rocks laying around, but it was flat for the most part, and there was undergrowth that grew up to about knee level.
Today, they were doing a small collecting quest.
Although it was easy, the setting was that the reward was raised due to things like public order having deteriorated recently. It was a so called Profit Quest.
After sohow completely gathering up the required amount of dicinal plants, they finished up by having lunch with the hard-baked bread that they brought.
The changing of the seasons in the Faltra vicinity was gentle, and it was said that the temperature didn’t rise that much even when it beca sumr, but even so, when it beca June, the number of hot days increased.
If they went back now, they would probably reach the town before it beca evening.
Shera scowled.
「Co to think of it, Rem, doesn’t it kinda sll?」
「......Sll, is it? It is the riverside after all, so there is the sll of water and grass, you know?」
「That’s not what I an. Rem, don’t you sll?」
「..............................Ha?」
「Nn～, you really do sll. Look, you’ve been moving a lot. That’s why, you sll of sweat. Also, sll of dirt. And then......what could this be, a beastly sll?」
Sniffing, she snorted her nose.
Rem hugged her body, and jumped back.
「P, please don’t sniff ! I do not sll!」
「But it would be better if you took a bath. Rather, I want to take a bath! Hey, let’s do that!」
「Kuh......You......Saying that a person “slls” just because you want to bathe yourself, I find sothing very wrong with that, you know!?」
「You’re wrong! You really do sll!」
She vigorously asserted that.
Rem beca speechless.
Shera changed the aim of her attack.
「Hey, hey, Diablo, you think so too, right!? That Rem slls.」
「Nn? Mu......Well......」
Diablo averted his gaze from the two and scratched his chin.
──I would really like for them to not talk about sll right in front of .
He had finally grown accustod to being together with them, but Diablo was inexperienced with won to the point of being unable to have a plain conversation with them.
Just to be sure, he tried focusing on his sense of sll.
──She doesn’t really sll.
Just as Rem said, there was the sll of water because it was the riverside. Also, maybe the sll of grass.
At the very least, it was much better than the room of his forr self. There was mold and dust and......No, he didn’t even want to rember.
「Hey, Diablo, what about, ? I’ve sweat quite a bit, haven’t I~.」
Shera expressly brought her body closer.
If there was so kind of sll, maybe because they had ward up from the dicinal plant gathering, it was the feeling that the sweet sll of the girls had beco stronger than usual. Rather, he thought that it was a good aroma.
However, since saying sothing like that would make him seem like a pervert, he was troubled on how to respond.
「Ugh......Mu......」
Rem looked at him with a face that looked like she was about to cry. She stepped away from him and took so distance.
「......Diablo, um......do you also think that I sll?」
Although he should skillfully follow up so as not to hurt her at a ti like this, it would probably be alright to change the topic.
「Ugh......Well......」
If he could say sothing that decent, then he wouldn’t have a communication disorder.
He had no idea how a Demon King would react at a ti if he were asked about a girl’s sll. He had never imagined it.
Shera talked cheerfully.
「Enough already! If you take a bath, you’ll beco all clean!」
「......Kuh......In that case, wouldn’t that an that I’m admitting that I sll at the present ti.」
「Ehー, then, why don’t you co over here and get slled by Diablo?」
Rem glared with scornful eyes.
「......Pantherians do not like getting wet with water......Our movents beco heavier when our fur gets wet, and since it becos more difficult to grasp an understanding of the surrounding situation......」
「Then, since this a good chance, Rem, let’s get you to like bathing!」
「What kind of reasoning is that!?」
Although she was objecting to it, when Shera took Rem’s hand──she seed to be reluctant, but she didn’t resist.
Co to think of it, Diablo also only went to the level of just wiping his body with a wet cloth on occasion.
In the Lifelia Kingdom, there didn’t seem to be any habit of taking a bath or shower. But even so, since the air was dry, and there was also the wind, it was easy to overdo it.
Even on a hot day, he thought that it was quite pleasant imdiately after wearing a new shirt. That sensation is sothing that would occur again and again.
It might alright to bath in the water occasionally.
