Chapter 136 Smiling Vacation ④?

Part 2

However, my mind was filled with thoughts about the dragon in the open-air Onsen. Even though it was finally my Onsen time, I can’t enjoy it calmly.

I have seen all kinds of dragons in my life, but I have never seen one like that.

I mean, rationally thinking, this is impossible. Even if I tell anyone, they would probably think this is a lie. People questioning my sanity would be saner than me.

I soaked in the hot water for a while and *chirachira* glanced at the open-air Onsen, but the open-air Onsen remained occupied by the dragon.

This is troubling…… Doesn’t this mean that I won’t be able to take a bath in the open-air Onsen?

No…… Perhaps, I could possibly get in together?

Let’s think about it calmly, there was no way that a dangerous creature would come into the open-air Onsen of a high-end Ryokan. Even the indoor Onsen have dragons spitting hot water, so maybe it is possible that this is this Ryokan’s specialty.

A dragon bath, dragon bath, huh…… I would be fine with just a simple bath though.

When I turned my gaze, I saw that the dragon was sticking its head out, looking very comfortable. I couldn’t see the dragon’s expression, but I guess he was relaxed.

The dragon was quite large, but there was still room in the bath. If I wanted to get in, there should be plenty of room for me to get in. I have been through a lot of trouble in my life, but as expected, I have never been in a mixed bath with a dragon. Of course, I have never wanted it either……

…… I think it would be better to stop here.

The other side is a dragon. And I am a harmless, mammal, without any Mana Material.

Even if the dragon doesn’t have any ill will, I would be blown away even if it moved its body a little bit, even by accident.

My head was starting to feel dizzy, maybe because I had been thinking while soaking, up to my neck, in the hot water for so long. I was planning to go to the sauna, but I completely forgot about it.

There was no time. Should I intrude or not……? Was it fine to do it? Was it dangerous or not?

No, let’s put ourselves in its shoes.

I am a dragon. I am relaxing in an Onsen when a human comes in from the side.

Humans are weak. They don’t have much power and they are different from the monster called Hunter. I am a dragon. There is no chance in hell that I will be harmed by them. Why would I bother to attack them when I am like this?

The answer is ―― None.

Determined, I stood up. I am sure the dragon is this Ryokan’s specialty. It is just a pet. Then there was no need for me to be afraid.

It might be a problem if I showed too much fear. When I opened the door to the open-air Onsen, I folded my arms and stood proudly in front of the dragon without hiding anything.

And then, I was grandly blown away by the dragon’s nose.

I rolled into the large communal bath, smashing through the glass. The barrier rings I wore on me prevented all the damage from the impact and the broken glass.

As I was pitifully rolling over, the light blue dragon glared at me with eyes that I couldn’t believe came from its round eyes. The 『Dog’s Chain』 stood in front of me as if it were trying to protect me.

I was confused, but I shouted in a loud voice.

“Sytryyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! A dragon! There’s a dragon heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeere!” (Cry)

No good, this is no good. As it looked so comfortable being inside the Onsen I thought for a second that it wasn’t like that, but it is just a stray dragon.

§

『Sytryyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! A dragon! There’s a dragon heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeere!』 (Cry)

“!?” (Black and White)

Black and White looked at each other as they heard a roar coming from the large communal bath.

As expected, 《Infinite Variety》 left the key in his locker. Their collar had already been removed. All that was left was to escape.

I didn’t expect it to go so well. No, after hearing what 《Infinite Variety》 said in the changing room, everything was probably as 《Infinite Variety》 expected.

However, after coming this far, we can’t stop now. We decided to steal it even though we heard his warning. I don’t think our situation will improve if we confess everything now.

“Let’s get out of here.” (Black)

“Y-Yeaaah…… Like we will go along with that crazy guy!” (White)

White strongly nodded at what Black said. The reason why his complexion was so pale was because, like Black, he has a premonition that everything was being controlled by him.

At the bathing area, there was the loud noise of glass breaking. But, Black and White threw the key and collars into his locker and ran out of the changing area as fast as they could.

TL notes:

Thanks for reading!

Tsukikage-sensei specified that the dragon was male because he was in the male bathroom, such a gentleman dragon. Lol

Cry’s reasoning was crazy. It was like if there was an ant in your bath what would you do, let it swim or remove it. Cry’s mind: let it swim. Dragon’s mind: Nope. Xd

Black and White think that everything is part of Cry scheme because they heard him say “There might be thieves too…”. But as usual, it’s just a coincidence XD

Tchao à plus!
