Chapter 270 Country of Sakura, Cherin and Seven Holy Swords [41]

We follow Bacchus-san down a steep forest trail.

(It sure is located quite deep.)

We are currently in a dense forest at the southern part of Cherin.

According to Bacchus-san, there is a bathhouse called “Sakura Drop” ahead of this path.

「I wonder if there really is a bathhouse in a place like this?」

「We’re moving away from human settlements. You sure this is the right road, old man Bacchus?」

「I can’t believe there’s a famous hot spring in here, though…」

The president and senpais questioned Bacchus-san.

「Barabara! Don’t worry, I’m still not senile! Sakura Drop is right ahead.」

He said, and proceeded with long strides.

(Bathhouse, Sakura Drop huh)

I hear it is a very famous bathhouse with a “secret hot spring” that has excellent efficiency. Apparently, the owner is reticent and difficult to do business with, so first-time customers usually don’t get to enter the bathhouse

However, Bacchus-san and him are old drinking buddies, so he can always get his acquaintances to get in for free.

After walking for a good ten minutes,

「We’re here!」Bacchus-san said.

There was a slightly old-looking huge bathhouse

「I always come here for a hot spring cure. I’ve tried out various hot springs, but there’s none that can beat this! The hot spring quality is mellow and calm. And it has outstanding efficacy. Not to mention the effect on fatigue recovery, revitalizing skin, stiff shoulders, sensitivity to cold, etc. Calling it the “hot spring of life” wouldn’t be an overstatement!」

When Bacchus-san introduced it as such,

「R-Revitalizing skin…」

「Stiff shoulders…」

Ria and the president showed strong interest with sparkling eyes.

「Let’s see… It’s 4pm right now, so let’s meet in front of the bathhouse at about 5.30 pm.」

Bacchus-san decided the regrouping time.

「Ou, I’m coming in!」

He then lifted the huge sign curtain hung in front of the bathhouse, and entered vigorously.

「…………Aa.」

The man, who seemed to be the owner of the bathhouse, replied with a short mutter, and dropped his gaze back to the newspaper in hand.

He seems to be a really reticent person after all.

After that, Bacchus-san and I went into the men’s hot spring, whereas the ladies went into the women’s hot spring.

When I passed through the male sign curtain, there was a very plain dressing room.

(It has a good feel!)

Lockers were lined up in a row, and a basket was placed on top of each one. A simple fridge in the corner was stacked with mixed juices and coffee milk. It’s a very traditional bathhouse.

「It’s kind of a calm atmosphere.」

The sole bathhouse in Goza village certainly has such an atmosphere.

「Bararara, you have a good eye. I also prefer this simple and quaint interior to the nowadays jumbled-up interior!」

We steadily prepared while talking about that.

After I put my hand baggage in the locker, took off my clothes, and picked up a towel to wash my body, my eyes were glued to Bacchus-san’s naked body.

(Wow, he has a really “good body”.)

Not to mention his steel-like muscles, there were also a lot of scars carved on his body.

Sword wounds, stab wounds, lacerations, bites, burns, explosive wounds, etc.

Just by looking at them, I can imagine the fierce battles he has experienced.

The naked body which reflected the way of life as a swordsman was like a work of art.

(Beautiful.)

The amount of experiences he has accumulated, the fights he has gone through, the number of times his life was on the line – all of them were incredibly extraordinary.

A body packed with heavy and rich, “experience”.

While I was fascinated by Bacchus-san’s bare body,

「What’s the matter, kid? Sorry, but I’m not into guys.」

He said with a prankish smile.

「D-Don’t say strange things! I am straight, too!」

「Bararara, it’s a relief, then! I was afraid for a moment there!」

His shoulders shook as he laughed. And when he opened the door to the hot spring,

「T-This is…!」

A beautiful, natural hot spring with sakura petals floating on the surface of the water spread out.
