Later that night, Inglis and Rafinha were enjoying the bath in the feudal lords castle.

Hmm~ that hits the spot! The lord here sure is generous! I mean, were even allowed to use the bath

It was a magnificent bathhouse paved with stone and decorated with plenty of ornaments. It used to be a bathroom exclusive for the lords family, but now everyone in the castle could use it, including the pair of newcomers.

However, due to the late hour, it almost felt like they had reserved the whole place for themselves.

The bath which was just a little bit too hot felt perfect on their tired body.

Rafinha was humming cheerfully.

Youre right. Its been a while since we could take our time soaking in a bath.

Our dinner was an all-you-can-eat buffet, and were given guest rooms because were girls too! This is way better than renting an inn by ourselves, isnt that right~?

This goes to say how much theyre expecting from us, I think. We did some solid work earlier, after all.

It seemed like the story of how Inglis and Rafinha defeated dozens of Magic Stone Beasts on their own had become the hot topic within the castle.

It was such a great achievement that they had received some bonus payments for the day.

They couldnt meet the Highlander Lady today since she was preoccupied but it seemed like they would be granted an audience tomorrow.

Come at us! Well just use the Blast, decoy and all! tactic again!

Isnt there a better name for it?

Its easy to understand, so who cares

Said Rafinha, rising up from the bathtub in good humor.

Come on, Ill wash your back alright?

She then asked Inglis to move to an open area so that she could wash her back.

Okay, I dont mind, but cant you at least act a little more modest?

Inglis chided when Rafinha got out of the bath and didnt cover her body with a towel, but instead, wrapped one around her hair.

Rafinha moved around in her birthday suit without even a shred of shame.

Looking at her now, Inglis realized that Rafinha had indeed grown up while the size of her breasts was modest, they were certainly there.

The glistening droplets of water running down her silky skin were captivating. And when Inglis realized what she was thinking about, feelings of guilt nearly drowned her. This was the reason why she had asked Rafinha to cover herself as soon as possible.

The silver-haired girl promptly covered her modesty with a towel as soon as she got out of the bath.

Youre just too shy, Glis. Why do we have to hide from each other anyways?

W-, wait, dont pull it!

You have good assets, its such a waste if you dont show it~ Thats why~ let me see, dont be shy! He he he he!

G-, geez! Come on, youre supposed to be washing my back, arent you!?

Whoopsies, right! Glis, your body is just too lovely, you stole my attention right away. Your breasts are huge and they have such pretty shapes. And your butt is so tight too!

D-, dont say such things so frequently, its embarrassing 1

It was true that while Inglis was only 15, her body had grown remarkably more than the average girls her age. She was certainly a sight to behold but all she could think about was how her breasts were such bothers that weighed down on her shoulders.

The only thing that she didnt mind about her large breasts was that they made dressing up in beautiful dresses more appealing.

How perfect Mine are so childish. Ah, sit here, Ill wash your back.

Inglis sat with her back facing Rafinha before responding to her comment.

Thats not true. Rani is still in her growing phase, right? Your breasts are still growing.

Ive been massaging them myself, after all. They get bigger if you rub them, right? 2

Rafinha scrubbed down Inglis back with a small lathered towel.

I know, I always watch you after all. 3

Glis, yours are big even without being massaged, right?

Yeah.

How envious. This is unfair!

Rafinha said with her eyes glinting suspiciously, however, Inglis didnt notice since she had her back turned.

Ei!

Rafinha thrust her hands to Inglis front and immediately grabbed onto the two huge lumps.

Hyaah!? H-. hold on, Rani!? What are you doing!?

Uwaah! Its big and heavy and springy! So this is how big breasts feel like awesome! Its really different from mine, you know? Aah, how lucky of you.

N- now that you know Stop it and let me go!

Hmm~? Im not done yet

G, geez! I told you no! Its over! My turn to wash your back now! 4

While they were making such a ruckus

Oh my, someone came before me? Ufufufu, you two seem to be having a lot of fun.

An older girl called out as she entered the bathhouse.

Her long platinum hair that hung down her back in gentle waves, plus her slightly drooping, narrow eyes altogether gave her a delicate appearance.

There was a Stigmata on her forehead, the Rune-like mark signifying Highlanders.

Most surprisingly, she didnt look too much older than them, possibly only in her late teens.

Good evening. Are you two perhaps the mercenary girls Ive been hearing about?

G-, good evening

Im sorry I was late to introduce myself. Im Cyrene, the acting Consul of the town Nova.

The Highlander Lady bowed with a smile. 5
