Because There Were 100 Goddesses in Charge of Reincarnation, I Received 100 Cheat Skills - Chapter 85

Chapter 85 - Drunk Elf

“Oh, this is paradise.”

We were led to the hot springs in the palace after the meeting with Onihime.

I was relaxing as much as I could, soaking up to my shoulders, into the cypress-scented bathtub.

Ouka came by and asked, “How’s the water, Karuna-dono?”

“It’s perfect.”

“Well, I’m glad that you like it.”

“But, there seems to be something missing.”

“What’s missing??”

I’ll tell you what’s missing.

“A girl to wash my back!”

Ouka looked rather stunned.

“Is it… is that really necessary?”

“It is! I’d also love it if you came in with me!”

Ouka’s gaze grew more and more intense. 

I ignored her annoyed stare and asked her, “What if Onihime-chan did it?”

“Idiot. I can’t let the Princess do that for you.”

“Then, you do it.”

“Wha- why would I do such a thing?!”

”Ahhhhh, the demon tribe isn’t that grateful for what I did after all~ I saved your country, didn’t I~?”

“Gununu…”

At my provocation, Ouka gritted her teeth in frustration, and then spat out,

“A-alright, fine! We Demons are virtuous people who repay our debts! I’ll prove it to you myself!”

Ouka-tan, you’re seriously so gullible.

She walked out of the bathroom and came shortly with only a fluffy white bath towel wrapped around her body.

Oh, what a body!

I couldn’t help but stare at the two giant peaks and slightly flushed slender limbs that weren’t inferior to Ellen’s at all.

I couldn’t tear my eyes away from the nape of her neck either. It was almost fully exposed by her long black hair, piled up on top of her head. A few stray strands of hair stuck to her skin.

“Ah, don’t stare so hard…”

That’s impossible.

Moreover, the fact that she was blushing deeply with embarrassment made it all the more appealing.

I burned this image into my brain using 《Knowledge and Memory • Extreme 》

“Let’s get you washed up then.”

“Turn around you idiot! Be quick about it!”

When I stood up in the tub, Ouka turned her face away with a strong blush colouring her cheeks. Then I made eye contact as I sat down in front of her.

“You’re facing the wrong way! I’m washing your back!”

“I’d rather you washed my whole body thoroughly, if that’s quite alright with you Ouka-tan.”

“Hey, don’t just spout nonsense!”

I was struck on the head with a bucket.

“… If I didn’t owe you a favor, I’d have killed you with my sword long ago.”

Ouka splashed hot water on my back as I muttered and complained.

She rubbed the soap on a towel and lathered it up.

“I’d like you to wash me with your boobs, thanks.”

”Do you have some kind of disease that makes you only think of vile things!?”

The majority of men do!

Ouka washed my back carefully .

Unfortunately, it wasn’t with her boobs.

Hot water was poured slowly down my back, and the soap suds fell off with a splash onto the ground.

“This-  This is good enough, right?”

“Alright, next time, I’ll take a bath with you.”

“You’re seriously going to do that too!?”

I finally succeeded in having a mixed bath after telling the resisting Ouka that I’m going to do this and that.

The towel was still rolled up tightly around her body though.

“The water is filled with bubbles and I can’t see anything below the water anyway. Why don’t you take your towel off?”

“That’s true, but I still don’t want to take it off.”

Ouka looked at me blankly from the edge of the bathtub.

If the people from Ouka Sentai Love Rangers saw this situation, they would have gone mad…

In the end, Ouka didn’t take off the towel, but taking a bath with a beautiful woman was still pretty awesome!

“It was a good bath.”

“I’m feeling a bit tired thanks to you….”

“It was refreshing for me!”

“Hmm.”

It seemed like Thira and the others were renting a bath as well.

Her cheeks were on fire, her hair was moist and wet, and she was wearing a yukata.

What a feast for the eyes.

After bathing, we were led to the Great Hall.

There were many lavish dishes lined up along a table.

It’s an island country, so there were many kinds of fish dishes.

They were going to hold a banquet tonight, apparently.

“My people were saved, thanks to you. This is just my way of showing gratitude.”

“If you wanted to thank me, just the naked Ouka-tan that you showed me in the bath earlier would have been enough.”

“I didn’t show anything! Don’t make things up!”

Incidentally, there were no poison related incidents this time.

I was a little worried because of what happened at Mermaid’s Village, but there’s no way Ouka and the others would do such a thing. I’m not sure about the Ouka Love Ranger Squadron though.

I ate the freshly prepared sashimi.

Yeah, it’s soft and delicious.

“Ooh! It’s rice!”

The part that pleased me the most was that there was rice! I had never been able to eat rice since I came into this world!

The taste was decent.

I could have filled my stomach with the white rice alone.

“Sogood-sogood-sogood.”

The flavour even seemed to satisfy Shiro, the gourmet dragon, who gulped it all down like it was going out of fashion.

There was also chirashi-zushi[1]  culture on this island.

Sushi rice was mixed with seafood, shiitake mushrooms, shiso[2] and nori[3].

There was no nigiri[4] sushi though.

The sake was really good too.

It was made by fermenting rice.

Sake was truly a match made in heaven for Japanese people.

The women of the Oni tribe showed us a folk dance as a side event. Personally, I thought the third girl from the right was cute.

”Uheheheheh~, young lady over there, do you feel good when you’re drinking~?”

“Hey, Ellen. That’s not water. That’s booze. Booze!”

Ellen was completely drunk.

She was laying down on the tatami mat in a daze, cheeks flushed. Her yukata was half open, with her large breasts on the verge of spilling out.

“Hey, Ellen-san. Please don’t sleep in a place like this.”

“Stay with me…”

“I guess I can’t help it…”

I asked the ladies to carry Ellen into the bedroom.

“This is good! It’s kind of fluffy, isn’t it?”

“Even Filia-chan! Why are you drinking!?”

Apparently, even magical dolls can get drunk.

”Hahahahaha, you guys are such sluts~ I could still drink, like another 20 litres?”

“Isn’t that physically impossible!?”

“Would you like a drink, Thira-dono? Our country’s alcohol is the best in the world. This Onisai is one of the best brands that I can confidently recommend to you.”

Ouka offered Thira a drink from the side.

She seemed to have drunk quite a bit already too. Her cheeks were rather obviously flushed.

“Well, I see… in that case, maybe just a little…”

Thira put her mouth on the rim of the cup.

“Oh, it’s delicious!” 

“I told you so!” 

“It’s dry, but very easy to drink with a deep taste. How refreshing.”

Tira was already red in the face after just one drink. She definitely wasn’t very good with alcohol. 

Then she said something outrageous.

”Fufu, I suddenly feel like releasing thunder magic for some reason.”

“Huh?”

”Oh, Karuna-san, can you stand there, please? I want to do some target practice.”

“Hmm? Why would you do that…?”

“Please do it quickly.”

“Whoa, whoa?”

“Thunderbolt.”

“Aaah!”

Seriously!? 

This isn’t the kind of joke you should make when you’re drunk!!

“I’m going to do it again!”

Then I had to keep getting hit by thunderbolts from Thira.

”Ahahahahahahahaha! Karuna-san, this is so much fun! I’m going to get a headshot next time!”

“Why are you gleefully saying something so cruel?!”

It turned out that getting Thira drunk can be dangerous.

The view was a real treat for me, though!
