No matter how brightly the sun shone high in the sky, it could never compare to the sight before my eyes.
「Shiro! This time, you have to give in!」
「I refuse to give up lord’s lap to anyone. For a dog… that spot is just right.」
Shiro, that spot is gravel though…
「I meant ‘outside’ the bath!」
「The battle for lord’s lap is heating up! Who will claim victory…!?」
Shiro and Sorte splashed about in the bath, quarreling, while Renge egged them on.
As far as hot spring manners went, it was improper… but from where I sat, it was certainly a feast for the eyes.
「Haah… can’t you all just relax and bathe quietly?」
「Truly. Such behavior lacks elegance.」
On my right sat Aina. On my left, Wendy.
Each clung quietly to one of my arms, soft breasts pressing firmly against me.
「If you don’t like it, then ‘you two’ should give up your spots!」
「Denied.」
「I refuse.」
「Aina! You used to be more considerate of your companions!」
「That was then. Mm… my liege? Do you wish to move your arm?」
No, that’s not really the issue…
At some point, my arm had slipped perfectly into her cleavage, completely enveloped in bliss from every angle. Was this really okay?
「Ah, I’ll do it」
Even Wendy copied Aina, guiding my other arm right into her cleavage!
Now Shiro and Sorte glared at me, eyes sharp with what could only be described as hatred toward breasts.
「…Shiro. Chipai Alliance.」
「Hmm. I accept cooperation.」
「Ah, then I’ll stay neutral. Which means… I’ll just take the middle seat on master’s lapssu!」
Casually, Renge sat herself down right on my lap…
But even covered with a towel, it was obvious I was already standing tall and proud.
「Ah……」
Renge let out a small sound when she realized.
Hey, it’s not my fault, okay?
Even dipping the towel into the bath this time couldn’t be helped!
「Aha, master’s…!」
Splash, splash…Renge wriggled happily, flicking water everywhere.
Ah, ugh, no, that kind of stimulation is dangerous!
「Wapuh!」
Suddenly, a merciless amount of hot water hit Renge square in the face.
No doubt the culprits were Sorte and Shiro.
Fortunately, they managed to splash her without getting me wet.
「Renge… you’ve got some nerve. Stealing our spot so casually like that」
「Hmm. A petty little nation that won’t even join the federation… you dare mock us」
「Th-this is bad news! Requesting reinforcements from the Oppai Alliancessu!」
「Wendy, what do you think?」
「Let’s see… Renge-san’s position ‘is’ enviable in some ways, but I’m not exactly unhappy with where I am now. Supporting her offers us no real benefit… let’s reject the request」
「Agreed. And besides, this was caused by Renge herself. I wish her luck」
「R-request denied!? In that case… Guide-saaaan! Please bring me back into the Pai Alliaaance! Ah, Shiro? Sorte? W-wait, you two are joking, right!?」
Of course, no guide-san appeared to rescue her. Renge’s desperate cries echoed as Shiro and Sorte firmly seized both her arms.

「Haaah… this feels good」
「The hot spring? Or me?」
「Both. Is it really alright for me to indulge in such luxury?」
In the end, everyone ended up clinging to me, but since it was getting sweaty and stifling, we agreed to rotate.
At the moment, Sorte was sitting on my lap, guiding my arms around her shoulders so I held her tight.
The others were lounging freely on the stone benches or resting at the break area foreman had built.
「It’s fine, isn’t it? This is the result of my lord’s hard work」
「Yeah… I worked hard because I wanted moments like this with you, Sorte」
「Fufu, I see」
Sorte pressed closer, lifting my hand and gently placing it against her cheek.
「I never imagined… that I’d end up like this with you」
「Yeah… you didn’t like me much at first, did you?」
「Didn’t like you…? Maybe. No… I did dislike you. I thought, ‘Aina’s going to be taken away by some stranger!’」
Well, that was only natural.
If an unknown, suspicious Drifter suddenly appeared and tried to take a precious companion away, anyone would resent it.
「But now… this warmth is dear to me. I don’t want to let go」
Her fingers gripped my arm tightly.
Really, this girl…
「You’re quite the maiden, huh… But don’t worry. I have no intention of letting go」
「Good. Don’t ever let go. Because I’ll always stay with you」
After that, we spent a while in silence together.

Later I was told that until Renge came to switch places, the two of us had been wrapped in such an overwhelming pink aura that it was hard for anyone to approach.
「It was incredible, you know! Just ‘Piiink! Piiiiiink everywhere!’ kind of vibessu!」
「Was it really that much?」
I held Renge by the waist to calm her down as she flailed and splashed around while talking.
「Wendy and I were talking, you know! Like… is master doing naughty stuff with herssu!?」
「Idiot… of course not」
「But, well… isn’t this a battlefield situation right nowssu…?」
With a mischievous grin, Renge poked at my “extra” down below.
「C’mon, c’mon. Bathing together, didn’t it get you aroused? Bathing*…aroused*!」
「…Yeah, that killed it」
「Eh!? Ah…seriouslyssu!!」
TN: It’s a japanese pun.
Nope… that was a deal-breaker, Renge. That’s the one thing you should never say.
「Aww… too bad then…」
「Don’t say it like my crotch is the disappointing one」
「Well, doing your first time in a place like this isn’t exactly romantic anywayssu. But then again, that’s what would make it unforgettable…! Master! Wanna go for itssu!?」
「Calm down. And hey, what happened to your whole ‘I hate men’ character setting?」
「Whaaatssu!? Setting!? I really ‘do’ hate men, you know! Master’s just a special casessu!」
No, right now you’re just a cheerful, lewd, free-spirited type.
Definitely doesn’t seem like someone who hates men.
「With normal men I’d never get this close, okay!? I’d just knock them out and be done with itssu!」
「Yeah, yeah. I’m honored」
「That was half-heartedssu… Sheesh, I really do mean it, master, I’m grateful to you」
「Hm?」
「I decided a long time ago…I’ll die with a smilessu. No matter what happens. That was my only vow. But, you know… if I’d been sold off as some criminal slave, bought by some stranger, I don’t think that would’ve been possiblessu」
「I see…」
「Ah, but it’s not about repaying a debt or anything, okay? I ‘really’ want to have your baby, and I really do love you, master. That’s why…I want to make you so happy that you’ll think saving me was worth itssu」
To die with a smile, huh…
That’s so like Renge. And honestly, I agree with her.
「To die with a smile… yeah, that’s a good one」
「Ohh, so master’s gonna die with a smile toossu?」
「Yeah. I think I’d like that」
「Then here’s what I’ll do! When you’re dying, I’ll let you go between my thighsssu!」
「Nah, if I die of old age, I’d prefer younger thighs by then!」
「Cheaterssu!!」
With Renge, it was like that the whole time…foolish chatter and laughter.
When I’m with her, I just can’t stop smiling. Her happy grin draws out my own, and then she laughs even more brightly seeing me smile.
If it’s with Renge, I’m sure I could even meet my last moment laughing.
「W-whoa, M-master!? Not there! Seriously, not there! I haven’t even gotten that far yet!!」
With that strange certainty lodged in my chest, my hands continued to roam across Renge’s body.

Now then… next up was Aina’s turn.
「Haah… My liege. This is good water」
「Y-yeah, it is」
「My liege? Why are you turning your face away?」
Uh, well… is it really okay to face forward? Really?
「Here! Look me in the eyes when we talk」
Aina grabbed my cheeks and forced me to face her.
Why was I trying to look away? Because Aina was sitting on my lap!
And not facing away, but straddling me, face-to-face!
「Fufu, finally you looked」
No, that’s not it…I’m glued to something else entirely…
My gaze darted back and forth at high speed between Aina’s face and her chest.
Not looking is impossible.
「Hm. No need to hold back. Look all you like, my liege」
「Uh… well…」
Ah. She noticed.
Well, of course she would.
「Fufu, I already belong to you. If it makes you happy, my liege, you can look whenever you want… or touch as much as you want」
Uhh… see, that’s… yeah, I mean, that’s great!
Really great. Being allowed to look at Aina’s chest anytime I want, and even touch…it’s a reward beyond imagination.
But still…
「Aina… your face is way too red」
「W-what are you talking about?」
She was desperately trying to keep her voice calm, but her whole face was flushed.
Almost as red as her hair.
「You’re not overheating? You okay?」
「I-I’m fine… I’m fine, really…」
Still, I can’t help worrying.
「Maybe you should rest on the stone bed for a bit」
「I refuse!」
「No, but…」
「I said no!」
「I…」
「Nooo!」
It had been a while since Aina was this stubborn.
She clung to my head, refusing to let go no matter what.
But honestly… this was wonderful.
The delicate skin of her face was like the finest silk stretched taut, smooth and sensitive to the touch.
And then there was the overwhelming softness that could only belong to breasts…pushing back yet wrapping around me at the same time…
Touching with my face… I could imagine it endlessly in my head, but the reality far surpassed anything I had ever pictured.
I see now. With just this, I could understand how wonderful puff-puff truly is.
Next time, I’ll ask Aina and Wendy to give me the real thing… ah… wait…?
「H-hey, Aina-san!? Master! Master is dying!?」
「Hmm, Aina, let go of him!」
「Eh? Wha…」
「Master’s strength is fading!」
「Aina! Your hands! Let go!」
So noisy… Ah, I see. I can’t breathe.
But I can’t pull away! My face refuses to leave!
Then so be it. Even if I die, to be buried in breasts would be an honorable death…
At that moment, I think I must have been smiling.
-0-
Later, when I woke, Aina apologized to me. But this time we agreed to set a signal for when to let go and then try again.
『B-but…』 she muttered, suddenly embarrassed, but with my earnest persuasion she decided to give it another try.
…It makes me happy that she believes in my words so completely.
But at the same time, I worry a little.
Because if she’ll do anything I ask, I might lose all restraint…
