Chapter 24: Goodnight

Last time, "Relaxed" brought out a lot of loli-con... lol, thank you!

Goodnight.

My room, well, it's next to everyone else's. This inn was just built.

I enter the room with the three children.

"So, what about the futons? Should we each have one?"

"...Can't we all sleep together? It's lonely to be alone."

"We've always slept together, the three of us."

Labyris and Firia said that, but Aslin was fidgeting.

"What's wrong, Aslin? Is something the matter?"

"U-um, where do I go to the bathroom? Is it in the courtyard?"

Ah, in medieval Europe, even in royal castles, they used chamber pots... and apparently threw them out the window to a specific spot...

In Japan, the first sewer system was in Edo, so it wasn't until then... that it was established.

Was Edo around the time of the Tokugawa Shogunate?

Well, that's not important. For now, at this cultural level, in the countryside, it's the river or a designated

place.

"I-I think I'm going to burst!?"

"W-wait a minute, there's a toilet right there!!"

I quickly scooped up Aslin and rushed to the toilet.

"Aslin, you sit on this. Do you know what a chamber pot is?"

"Yes!!"

She then turned her back to me and sat down.

That's not right!! It's no use telling her, she doesn't even know what a toilet is.

"Wait a minute, damn it!! Aslin, I'm sorry!!"

"Hia!! No, Yuki-san!!"

I scooped her up and turned her to face me.

Aslin had already broken down. Well, since I spun her around, it's fine.

"Don't look, don't look at me like that!!"

Aslin put her hands on my face, blocking my vision. But is it okay to do it with her back to me?

Ah, is it embarrassing to face each other?

...I'm seriously like a guardian, aren't I...

"Uuuu..."

After using the toilet, Aslin hid behind Labyris, embarrassed.

"...Yuki, no special plays right away. Start by holding her normally."

"What do you mean?"

"Daaah!! Labyris, why do you know such things!! Firia, you shouldn't listen!! And you saw how to use the toilet, right?! Remember it!! I'm going to teach the women next door how to use it, so please comfort Aslin."

With that, I dashed out of the room.

Being there made me feel like a pervert.

I'm normal, I don't have any special fetishes!! I want to believe that.

"Ooh, sorry. I forgot to explain about using the toilet."

As I said that and entered the women's room, Ratz rushed towards me.

"Big brother, perfect timing!! I was just about to burst!"

Hopping with her legs together, Ratz skillfully approached me.

She doesn't seem uncomfortable, as expected of a rabbit beastman?

"Damn it!! What is it!! Do you want to see me wet myself?! I'll do it right here!"

"No, no, wait, wait!! Come here!!"

It seems Ratz doesn't have the luxury of speaking in a drawn-out manner like "~" anymore.

"Now, sit on the chair here!!"

"Damn it!! I don't have time to retort!! Like this!!"

"Do it in there!!"

"Yes, I understand, big brother!!"

I watched until she was done and closed the door. I won't make the same mistake as Aslin, I'm a man who learns.

Immediately after closing the door, I heard the sound of water falling. ...No, she was holding it in, so it's unavoidable that I heard the sound, right?

"Fuwah~, it's heaven."

"After you're done, there's white paper next to it, right? Wipe yourself with that, throw it in here, and there's a silver knob, right? That flushes it."

"Wha!! You wipe with paper!? How luxurious!!"

"I understand your resistance, but get used to it. This is normal here."

"And flush? Is it this? Ooh, it's flushing!"

After that, Ratz came out of the toilet with a satisfied expression.

"What is this incredibly convenient toilet? Toilet, was it?"

"That's right. Please teach everyone else how to use it."

"Yes~, I understand. Wow, but shouldn't you have carried me to the toilet?"

I already did that with Aslin earlier.

"Eris, how are you with the futon? Is there any problem?"

"Um, is this okay?"

Eris looked at the floor futon with uncertainty.

"That's right, the firm one is on the bottom, and the soft one is for covering from above."

"Between that toilet and this, I feel like I'm having a strange dream..."

"Give up. And get used to it."

"...I will do my best."

"Tomorrow we have a lot to talk about, so try to rest and prepare for tomorrow."

"..."

Eris definitely doesn't look like she can rest, but there's nothing I can do.

This is normal for me, and I intend for Eris and the others to continue this life.

"Ah, if you get thirsty, turn this faucet like in the bath earlier to get water, put it in this kettle-like thing, and press this button to get hot water. The cups are here. Also, if you put in these tea bags, you can make tea or other kinds of tea."

"...It seems my common sense doesn't apply in this place anymore."

Eris shook her head, placing her hand on her forehead.

Good luck, I've left the explanation to everyone to you.

I'm going to sleep now. It's not because I'm lazy and pushed it onto Eris.

I'm worried about the three in the room, so I'll return early. Yes, it's my duty as a guardian!!

"...You're late. Firia is already asleep."

"Um, should I sleep on this grassy floor?"

"Nyun."

When I returned to the room, Firia seemed to be sleepy already. It seems returning early was the right decision.

"I'm sorry, but today we'll sleep four of us. Let's hurry and lay out the futons."

With that, I quickly laid out two futons. One adult and three children should be enough.

"I'll sleep in the center, so you two can sleep wherever you like. Firia, where do you want to sleep?"

"Um, I'm used to sleeping holding hands, so I think next to me would be good."

"Then, next to Aslin. It's foolish to waste time thinking about it, so today Labyris will be on my right, Aslin on my left, and Firia next to her."

With that, I gently picked up Firia and laid her on the futon.

Aslin lay down, still holding Firia's hand.

I also lay down in the center.

"Hm? Labyris, what's wrong? Aren't you sleeping?"

"...No, I never thought I'd be able to sleep like this. I was often alone."

"I see. You might not be used to it, but give up. Here!"

"Kya!?"

Approaching Labyris, who was staring at the futon, I scooped her up and threw her onto the futon.

"Lights... I'll turn off the light now."

"...I wish you'd handle me more gently."

After turning off the light and covering the three of them with the comforter, I also snuggled in.

"...It's fluffy."

"...Yes. It's hard to believe that just yesterday we were huddled together, wearing ragged cloths."

"Could you two lift your heads a little?"

"What is it?"

"...?"

As they lightly lifted their heads, I slipped my arms under their heads.

"You can put them down now. I have a bad habit of moving in my sleep. If I swing my arms and hit you, you might get hurt, so please hold my head down."

"Understood."

"...We'll go with that."

Well, I'm really at my limit now.

Aslin and Firia are already breathing softly. They must be tired.

They came all the way here as slaves and to the dungeon with their small bodies. It's natural.

As I thought about that, my consciousness began to fade further.

"...Hey, Yuki. Are you awake?"

"...Yeah."

Labyris, with her head on my right arm, was looking at me.

But I could only give a vague reply.

"...Thank you. Goodnight."

"...Yeah."

And so, the night deepened.

I am always grateful for reports of typos and errors.

For typo and error reports in comments, please write "Title" and "Copy and paste the erroneous line" in the one-word column, and it will be easier to correct.

This is a "Relaxed" chapter until now.

From the next chapter, we will discuss dungeon management and DP income and expenditure in detail.

Please enjoy.
