"I love bathing, my body is so good..."
"Oh oh oh~"
"Bathing, bathing, my body is so good..."
"Oh oh oh~"
Under the clear, cold moonlight.
Standing in the slightly cool stream water.
The black-haired young man was singing and bathing.
Yulian felt that humans were a strange thing.
As if they had a strong ability to adapt.
Clearly, he had experienced too many bad things recently.
For example: being separated from Frieren and the others, the Demons not obeying the king's command, having to ride the same horse as Scharf while traveling, and the non-stop hard traveling day and night, etc.
But all of this, after touching the icy cold stream water, Felt as if it had all been smoothed over.
Yulian found brief happiness.
It seemed that not falling asleep immediately like Wirbel and Scharf, But coming to the stream alone to bathe was a wise choice.
Yulian pursed his lips, feeling smug.
But suddenly felt a gaze fixed on him.
Yulian turned his head.
Yulian was startled.
Yulian was shocked.
Only because he saw on the large rock not far away, A cute little head with long white hair was peeking out and looking at him.
Frieren?!
Yulian reached out and covered his chest.
His mind was in a daze, quickly thinking about what had happened.
"What's wrong, Frieren?"
Fern looked at Frieren, who had put on a large white towel and climbed onto the giant rock.
She was staring motionless at Frieren not far away and asked curiously.
There won't be anyone, right?
Fern approached the giant rock with a faint sense of unease in her heart.
"Yulian."
Frieren spoke.
Her voice carried confusion.
"I didn't expect this guy to be quite muscular."
Huh?
Yulian?
Muscular?
Stream water?
Fern tilted her head, trying to connect these words, and then her whole being seemed to freeze.
"Mistress Frieren..."
"You didn't happen to see Yulian bathing in the stream, did you?"
Fern tried to string the words in her mind into a sentence and said it out loud.
"No."
Frieren gently shook her head.
Yulian couldn't possibly be here.
After all, they set off earlier than she and Frieren.
Just as Fern was breathing a sigh of relief, Frieren added.
"It's that Yulian saw me watching him bathe."
...
Silence...
Fern froze in place.
The next second!
Yulian watched as Frieren, who was peeking at him bathing, suddenly disappeared completely!
At the same time, a huge splash was heard not far away!
"Is the child alright?"
Yulian's mouth twitched.
Without Frieren's gaze on him, He quickly returned to the shore and put on his clothes.
He was pretty much done bathing anyway.
Next was to ask Frieren what was going on.
"Mistress Frieren, how could you peek at Mr. Yulian bathing!"
Looking at Frieren beside her, whom she had pulled down with Magic, Who looked pitiful at the moment, How could a girl be like this!
No!
Even if it's not a girl, peeking at someone bathing is wrong!
"I wasn't peeking..."
Frieren pouted, trying to retort.
But then she realized that she had indeed peeked.
So she could only be stubborn for a moment.
However, Frieren still felt very wronged.
Clearly, she had sensed someone was there and went to check.
Who would have thought it would be Yulian...
But should she also say it was fortunate that it was Yulian?
Frieren felt a tangled mess of black lines in her head, extremely chaotic.
"Really..." Fern was so angry she wanted to put her hands on her hips.
But considering her current situation, Fern could only cross her arms over her chest.
Showing an angry expression.
"Beep beep--"
On the shore, the ring inlaid with a purple gem emitted light.
At the same time, a sound rang out.
"Mr. Yulian has found us..."
"Mistress Frieren, you go tell him yourself."
"Remember to apologize properly!"
At this time, who else could call her through the team ring except Yulian?
Fern naturally didn't want to answer this "call".
She could only stare at Frieren.
"Okay~"
Frieren's face fell.
＜(´･_･`)＞
After weakly responding, She tidied her hair, which was stuck to her, and slowly walked towards the shore.
"Yulian, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to see you bathing..."
Yulian looked at the ring he had just connected.
He was about to ask Fern what the situation was.
The next second, Frieren on the other end dropped a bomb.
Boom!
What do you mean 'saw me bathing'!
Is this something you can say so bluntly!
Yulian's face instantly turned red!
So strange!
I'm a man!
But why do I feel this sense of shyness!
And you've said everything!
What do I say!
"It's okay."
Sorry, it's okay?!
Yulian's mouth twitched violently.
Solving problems with a formula is fast.
But!
It's so strange...
"Mistress Frieren, what did Mr. Yulian say?"
Fern looked curiously at Frieren, who was staring blankly at the ring.
"Yulian said it's okay..." Frieren turned to Fern and grinned, showing her white teeth.
"Then can I continue bathing?"
"It's okay?"
Fern rested her hand on her chin.
Thinking.
"'It's okay' means it's not okay..."
"Mistress Frieren, Mr. Yulian might really be angry."
Fern nodded with certainty.
Her face filled with worry.
"No way?"
Frieren frowned slightly.
"Anyway, let's put on our clothes and meet up with Yulian."
Fern shrugged her shoulders helplessly.
Girls actually bathe quite quickly too.
It's just that they are more reluctant to leave the comfortable feeling of being in the water.
Frieren saying she wanted to bathe a bit longer just meant she wanted to soak for a while.
"Okay..."
"Then I'll tell Yulian to put on his clothes too."
Frieren gently lowered her head and spoke to the ring and Yulian.
Meanwhile, Fern behind Frieren had a bright red face!
She knew it! She knew she saw it!
However, if Frieren and Yulian were together, it didn't seem impossible...
Frieren is like a child, completely unreliable.
And Yulian is considerate and takes care of people!
The key is that Yulian is the same long-lived race as Frieren!
"Fern?"
Frieren was a little confused.
She had just agreed with Yulian to meet outside the small woods.
When she turned around, she saw Fern with a completely red face.
Who could tell her what happened to Fern in those few short seconds?
"Ahem..." Fern pursed her lips and lightly cleared her throat.
She shook her head and said.
"I'm fine, Frieren..."
"Let's put on our clothes!"
"Okay."
Frieren gently nodded and put on her clothes.
But she always felt that Fern's heart wasn't as calm as she appeared.
[Ahhhhhh!]
[What am I thinking!]
[Didn't Sir Himmel like Mistress Frieren!]
[And I often hear Frieren talk about Sir Himmel!]
[But Sir Himmel has already passed away!]
[Now I'm taking care of Mistress Frieren, but what if I'm not here in the future!]
[Yulian and Frieren don't seem impossible either!]
[Ahhhhhh!]
In the distance.
Yulian, who had just sneezed, stood quietly outside the small woods.
Waiting for Frieren and Fern to arrive.
What Yulian had to be surprised about was, Fate was truly this peculiar.
The separated individuals had met again in such circumstances.
"Fern, Frieren..." Looking at the two figures casting shadows under the moonlight, "Yulian..."
