Chapter 4: Let's Go to the Hot Springs 

— Part 3: Reserved Hot Spring

When the carriage carrying Aurelius and his group arrived in the hot spring town after repelling the ogres' attack, a considerable crowd came out to welcome them.

They were greeted warmly for safely delivering the goods. After all, relying solely on people carrying supplies on their backs would likely lead to shortages.

Workers quickly gathered around the long-awaited carriage. They untied the ropes and began unloading the goods one after another.

"Good job. Did you encounter any monsters along the way?"

Even the guild staff came out to greet them.

"Yes, we did. There were several ogres.

Including a leader type.

But these people defeated them all, so there's no need to worry."

The coachman responded, asking to be entrusted with such negotiations as he was experienced in handling them.

"Ogres, really?"

"Yes, it's true. But we left the materials behind.

We want to go back and retrieve them with this carriage as soon as possible."

"Alright, go ahead.

Ogre innards are valuable, and the bones are useful too.

Hey, you guys, hurry up and unload!"

Once the goods were quickly unloaded, the carriage immediately turned back the way it came, with the three still on board.

When they reached a point out of sight of the town, the coachman stopped the carriage.

"We're out of sight now. Put the ogres on top of the carriage.

With that size, we can carry only four on this carriage.

Place three regular ogres and put the leader type on top."

"Why go through such trouble?" Magnolia, who didn't understand the reasoning, asked.

"The mage's storage box is abnormally large. And his magic is astonishingly powerful.

If that were known, you wouldn't be able to travel normally anymore.

You'd inevitably be captured by nobility and forced into service. You wouldn't want such a restrictive life, right?"

"Indeed, it would be a shame not to be able to travel when we're trying to see the world."

Aurelius agreed with the coachman's reasoning.

"Well, you saved my life. This is the least I can do for you."

"No, it's a great help.

But what should we do with the remaining ogres? If we put them in the storage box, they'll be in the way."

"Leave that to me. Since they're not needed, we can sell them in this town."

After a brief rest, they returned to the town with a nonchalant demeanor.

"OHh!!!"

The townspeople and guild staff were amazed at the sight of the Ogre Leader for the first time. They went to the monster dismantling site, managed to get it off the carriage, and immediately started dismantling the leader. At the same time, several others began unloading and preparing the remaining Ogres for dismantling.

There were quite a few onlookers, but their attention was focused on the Ogre Leader. Taking advantage of this distraction, the coachman signaled, and Aurelius brought one Ogre out on top of the carriage. The laborers looked puzzled but continued working as they unloaded the Ogres, repeating the process of bringing out one Ogre at a time.

Once all the Ogres were unloaded, it was clear that there was one Leader-type and seven Ogres. It became apparent that there were too many to fit back on the carriage.

Additionally, the coachman, saying he would rest the horses, took the carriage away, so no one noticed the large storage box that Aurelius had.

The laborers, exhausted from unloading and feeling as though the number wasn't decreasing, seemed worn out.

"This is all your profit for defeating them, as I have nothing to do with it. I'll be leaving now. If we meet again, please take care."

With that, the coachman left.

The guild bought each Ogre for five gold coins and the Leader-type for twenty gold coins. Although it was a high price, it seemed to cover the cost of the subjugation.

Since they had enough money to get by for a while, it wasn't much of a concern.

When the purchase was completed, the guild staff guided them to a hot spring inn.

There were no guests at the luxurious hot spring inn they were taken to, and they were told it was reserved solely for Aurelius and his party.

This indicated how severe the damage from monsters on the highway was, and the joy of safety after defeating the ogre was significant.

Since it was a hot spring inn, the room had a floor called tatami, and it was customary to take off shoes before stepping onto it.

Fittingly for a hot spring area, the room had a bathtub, but the main attraction was the large open-air bath. While there were separate sections for men and women, since they had the whole place to themselves today, they could use either side freely.

"Shall we go in together?"

Even though they had seen each other naked many times, it was their first time bathing together. Aurelius felt shy but couldn't help but invite her.

"Of course, I'd love to."

Magnolia smiled, pleased at the thought of bathing together.

After finishing their meal, the two headed to the open-air bath.

Magnolia wore her usual short yukata, while Aurelius wore the inn's provided yukata.

As they walked arm in arm, Aurelius's arm brushed against Magnolia's chest. The soft sensation, unrestrained by her usual bindings, felt pleasant.

When they entered the dressing room together, there was a notice with instructions. Aurelius read it thoroughly.

"Uhm, it seems there are some rules for entering the hot spring.

First, pour hot water over yourself to get accustomed to the temperature.

Then, use a wet towel to wipe your body clean.

After that, soak in the hot spring, but don't let the towel soak in the water.

Once you're warmed up, lather yourself with soap and wash your whole body.

Rinse off the soap, then soak in the hot spring again slowly.

Before you get too hot, get out of the hot spring.

Finally, wipe yourself with a towel cooled with water—it makes you feel even warmer.

That's what it says."

Apparently, the towel was the same soft cloth they frequently used. Perhaps the sage Merge Maquia had also visited this place.

"Shall we get in right away?"

When Aurelius took off his yukata and turned around, Magnolia had only just untied her sash.

Usually, she would store her clothes in a storage box, but today, she undressed in the usual way.

And then, glancing back a little, she slid the yukata off her shoulder. The sensuality of the gesture made Aurelius stare.

Magnolia slowly let the short yukata fall to her feet, picked it up, and put it in the basket. From behind, with only a string around her waist and hips, she appeared almost completely naked.

"Magnolia."

Aurelius couldn't help but hug her from behind.

"What is it? What's wrong?"

Magnolia didn't resist but turned to face Aurelius as he embraced her.

"Hmm, hmmm—"

Chu, mwahh, slurp, slurp-slurp,

They embraced and kissed each other.

"I can't get in without taking off the last piece. Will you take it off for me?"

"Um—"

Aurelius untied Magnolia's loincloth. As the loincloth fell to the ground, Magnolia kneeled to pick it up.

"Shall I undress you too?"

Still kneeling, Magnolia looked up at Aurelius and said.

"Um, please."

"I guess I have no choice then."

Even as she said this, Magnolia happily lowered Aurelius's trunks.

"Heheheh, you're such a hopeless case for getting like this."

In front of Magnolia, Aurelius's cock had become erect and large.

She looked up at Aurelius with a happy gaze while stroking it.

"Hmm—"

Chu—

Magnolia brought her face closer and placed her lips on his cock, taking it into her mouth.

"Uh,"

The pleasure made Aurelius let out a sound. No matter how many times she did it, Magnolia's caresses always felt good.

Plok', plok', plok'—

As her lips moved over his cock, the pleasure increased.

"Alright, that's enough for now."

Magnolia released him and stood up.

"UH, it's tough being left like this. I expected you to finish."

"FUFUUh, I'll take my time with you later."

Laughing, Magnolia took a towel and headed towards the outdoor bath.

"Wow—"

The bath was so spacious and the adjoining garden had such a pleasant atmosphere that thry couldn't help but be impressed.

They warmed up in the bath while gazing at the garden.

Just that alone was soothing.

Still, as the instructions advised, they first poured hot water over themselves. Then, they sat on the chair facing the wall.

In front of them, there was a pipe with a stopper. When they removed the stopper, hot water came out.

They filled a bucket with hot water, wet a towel, and wiped their bodies. Even though they could get clean with Aurelius' cleaning magic, since they had come to a hot spring, washing with hot water would enhance the experience.

After that, they were about to enter the hot spring, but there were three baths. One had normal, clear hot water.

Another had milky white water. However, there was a sign explaining that it wasn't dirty, but rather that was the natural color of the hot spring.

The third bath, for some reason, had a large rock in the middle, creating a shallow pool. This bath was shallow enough that even when lying down, the water wouldn't reach one's stomach. It was meant for relaxing without getting too hot.

Thinking it best to start with the regular one, they slowly soaked in the clear hot spring.

"UHHH—"

"HAAAA—"

The two of them exhaled together as they submerged up to their shoulders in the hot water. Then, they lowered themselves to sit at the bottom.

The water was quite hot, but that made it feel good.

"UHH, this feels nice."

"HAAA, it is a hot spring, after all."

It was Aurelius' first time at a hot spring, and only the third time for Magnolia.

"There was a bathtub at home too, but it was so small I couldn't even stretch my legs.

Maybe Master knew how good this felt, so he often soaked in hot water.

This is definitely better than the washing chair."

While Aurelius spread his arms and enjoyed the hot spring, Magnolia nestled between his arms.

"That chair is good for washing, but the hot spring feels much better."

Aurelius then wrapped his arms around Magnolia and pulled her close.

Magnolia also leaned into Aurelius, entrusting herself to him.

Chu—

They brought their faces close and shared a kiss.

At the same time, Aurelius touched Magnolia's breast with his free right hand while Magnolia rubbed Aurelius's cock.

"Fufufuh, do you want to keep going like this?"

While being rubbed, Aurelius rolled his fingers over her nipple.

"I'd like to save the enjoyment for later. 

Plus, we shouldn't dirty the hot spring."

"Is it going to come out? If so, that's a shame."

"I'm not sure, I don't think it will yet. 

Also, in a hot spring, we need to wash our bodies with soap."

When Aurelius removed his hand, Magnolia did the same, and they both got out of the hot spring.

They sat back down on the chair facing the wall.

Aurelius rubbed the soap on a wet towel, creating foam.

Magnolia approached Aurelius from behind as he was preparing to wash his body.

"Shall I wash your back for you?"

"You' II do that? Well, then I'll leave it to you."

Magnolia's hands touched his back and began rubbing. It seemed she was using her bare hands to spread the foam instead of the towel.

It felt quite nice.

"Next, I'll wash the front, so turn around."

When Aurelius turned, Magnolia, naturally naked, was sitting on the chair.

"What are you grinning about? 

You've seen it many times—are you that happy?"

It looked like Aurelius was grinning at the sight of Magnolia nakedness.

Well, it was true that he was happy.

Meanwhile, Magnolia washed from his chest to his stomach, and even his arms and legs, using foam.

"Shall we switch? I'II start by washing your back."

"Fuh,"

Grinning, Magnolia turned around.

Her slender back, despite being a swordswoman, made her seem even more endearing.

Aurelius applied foam to his hands and washed her back in the same way.

"I'II wash the front while we're at it."

"Hmm, Kuh, Haa,"

Aurelius, hugging Magnolia from behind, used his foamy hands as an excuse to touch her breasts and pinch her nipples.

"Aurelius, enough. Aren't you supposed to be washing?"

Magnolia's voice showed little irritation.

"Yes, that was the plan, but you're so tempting I couldn't stop myself."

"If you're not going to wash, I'll do it myself."

"No, I'll wash properly this time."

"Please do."

It seemed that Aurelius almost lost control in his first hot spring.

Magnolia didn't seem to mind too much, but they needed to wash their bodies.

Even so, Aurelius continued to wash Magnolia, moving from her stomach to her legs.

"Ah, you're washing there too?"

"I thought it would be better to wash it just in case."

Lastly, he washed her pussy.

"Be prepared for later."

Even as she said this, Magnolia didn't try to escape.

They washed each other's bodies, rinsed off the bubbles with hot water, and then soaked in the hot spring again.

This time, they soaked in a milky white hot spring, huddled close, kissed, and touched each other's—her breasts and his cock.

"Fufufuh, do you want me to do it here like this?"

"That might be nice.

But instead of using your hand, could you do that thing that feels good, if that's okay?"

Aurelius enjoyed the caress with lips sucking him up and found it very pleasant.

"I don't mind, but what if I can't hold back?

It's still a difficult time for you, Aurelius.

"Yeah, I'd prefer to avoid using medicine. Sorry for making you do everything, Magnolia.

We'll leave this town by tomorrow morning and pray in the next town."

"Is that so? Well, it can't be helped.'

They kissed again.

They spent a pleasant time enjoying the hot springs together, feeling completely relaxed. They wished to forget about curses for a while longer and just embrace each other.
