Interlude: We Equally Privileged Heroines, Part 3
「You see. Readying the bath, is also a very crucial task」
It was a maid named Melia that explained such, in an innocent tone.
Contrary to the Lisp’s tone like that of an infant, her appearance is so beautiful that one would not believe that she was only a maid .
Basically the maids are gathered on the premise of their beauty and looks, so their average is very high, but even among them, Melia’s beauty is one ground above.
Pure snow white hair that extends to her ankle, as smooth as silk, and purple eyes that are like jewels. A slender body full of abundant fruits, and even the body shape is so perfect as if God had personally created it. Combined with her scarce facial expression, makes her beauty appear like that of a doll.
「Why is that?」
「Because Lord Aur loves bathing」
However, the words spun from this incarnation of beauty are broken and thoroughly awkward.
Her appearance and character are too incongruous.
And above all, the most abnormal of all is her magical power.
Even if not a sorcerer, humans more or less have magic dwelling within their body, but Melia’s body does not exhibit magic in the slightest.
She is not exactly as strong as Johanne or Lasara……in fact she is likely to lose to even a kitten, but her mysteriousness sets her apart from the rest.
「First of all, because our clothes will get wet, we will strip」
Belle was frightened with her eyes widely opened at how she was suddenly stripped off, and tossed her clothes immediately after saying that.
「So—, you pull out the hot water, and start clean—ing」
As Melia pulled the lever inside the bathroom, the hot water filled the huge bathtub to the brim, making a strange noise and started to form a whirlpool.
「Good」
Then Melia sits at the edge of the bathtub, and stares at the hot water that was decreasing.
「Err……Would it not have been better to take off your clothes after the hot water was gone?」
「Oh—」
After Belle asked, Melia raised her voice as if she was impressed.
「Ah, but it will get wet」
Well of course it would get wet if you sit on the edge of the bathtub.
For the time being, Belle rolled her sleeves, took off her shoes, and tucked her skirt short into her waist.
Of course she feels shameful to just expose her skin suddenly. Luckily, Melia did not reproach her for it, so after the hot water came out, Belle started cleaning in that outfit.
「Waa」
The floor of the bathtub which already pulled out the hot water was unexpectedly slippery, Belle somehow manages to endure a dangerous fall.
「Here, there is a trick to avoid slipping……」
When she turned around to ask for guide, Melia slipped all the way and was hitting her body.
「Does it……not hurt?」
「I am fine! 」
Even as her nose was turning red, Melia rose up upright.
And then with determination she started to rub the floor with a brush, but soon again she slipped and fell.
Indeed, Belle was convinced as to why she had to be naked.
“But even so”, thus while brushing the floor, Belle took a sidelong-glance at Melia.
Such a beautiful naked body that might even make a fellow woman break down in sigh.
Every time Melia brushes the floor, her rich pair of hills sways “boin boin” generously.
There was no attitude like trying to hide anything with her hands whatsoever, as if before coming she had forgotten the concept of shyness somewhere, on top of that over the course she slipped over and over, the important parts were perfectly visible.
「Calm down. It is very slippery, so please plant your feet firmly and walk slowly」
Belle could no longer endure watching as several bruises already appeared on her white skin, so she involuntarily calls out to her.
「U—. Like this?」
「Like……this」
She ends up falling because she runs. If she plants the soles of her feet on the ground and try moving to scrub, she won’t fall so easily. As Belle demonstrates to her, Melia imitates her like a bird chick.
「It’s true. Thank you, Belle」
Even though as a maid she was her senior, but Melia didn’t even worry about it and smiles sweetly.
「I am through—」
After cleaning the bathroom, Melia happily stretched her body looking satisfied.
「Next is—, we fill it with hot water, and we’re through」
When Melia returns the lever she pulled at the beginning, a gurgling sound from the lion statue carved on the wall is made as hot water overflows.
The task itself is simple, but it was quite a hard labor just for being a huge bathtub.
「Please Show me your body. Although it’s not that great, I have some knowledge of recovery magic」
Even after teaching her the sliding feet trick, Melia still fell a few more times.
She fell in a bathtub made of stone without putting on clothes. Much less a bruise, she must have suffered one or two abrasions.
「Oh……?」
However, on Melia’s body there were no traces of scratch anywhere.
Without a doubt the knee that was confirmed to have been bruised and the tip of the nose that was all red and swollen were gone.
「You see, apparently Melia is a fragmental piece of a saint」
「A piece of a saint?」
Hearing Melia’s poor explanation, Belle suddenly understands.
Certainly about nine years ago, the Demon Lord army attacked the religious nation Rafañis and the name of the departed saint should have been Melia. After that, due to the invasion of the Demon Lord’s Army, Rafañis became a vassal nation, but to think she would be serving as a maid in such a place.
「I once died, and was resurrected by Saint Melizand’s power once more, so my wounds heal quickly」
Although Melia’s explanation was not well understood, but she could somehow guess the reason why someone like her is working here as a maid.
And that’s when.
「Is the hot bath ready?」
Suddenly, a deep voice echoed all the way from outside of the bathroom, and so Belle was jolted in surprise.
「Yes, it’s ready, Lord Aur! 」
「Welldone」
This voice, she can never forget. She did not need to listen to Melia’s words, as he is Belle’s very own objective, and that it belongs to the Aur, the Lord of this dungeon.
Aur enters the bathroom without seeming to be worried that Belle was present, and sits on the step next to the bathtub.
「I will wash your— back」
「Alright」
And in a natural manner, Melia poured hot water, and then began to lather soap on him.
And so she besmeared the foam on her body, and clung unto Aur’s body and then began to cleanse him.
Indeed, this is the most important job.
Even as Belle’s face was flushed bright red, she endeavored to observe her senior’s work.
