1.5 The Matter You Have To Becareful Of Snakes Mouth

For the time being I brought her to the bathroom to explain how to use it, of course she was still dressed.

[Its wonderful. What on earth happened to the room inside the dungeon where Toru-san lives?] (Ria)

Well she was impressed with the Tatami mat before so I had expected this kind of reaction. In awe Ria looked around the bathroom restlessly. I dont even know what she was surprised with anymore.

[Well it's supposed to be a Mansion not a Dungeon though, but the sound is similiar] (Toru)

[Huh?] (Ria)

[Ah no, there is nothing. This is the bathtub and you enter there, understand?] (Toru)

[Yes!! There is something like this inside the mansion of the royal family or aristocrats] (Ria)

I see. Its similiar with rich peoples bathroom in the world outside the dungeon.

[But is this alright? For me to use Wiseman-samas lavatory?] (Ria)

[Please dont mind it. And this is a shower, do you know it?] (Toru)

Lavatory? It would be a bathroom in the old language. I mostly understood her words just like telepathy. Ria is showing a sorry face when I asked that.

[Ah dont worry. Its normal if you dont know about it] (Toru)

[I-Im sorry] (Ria)

Ria shrunk her body further with an apologetic face.

[No No No! Its alright, there is no problem, really. This is an amazing Artifact made by me, The Great Wiseman. So it must be the first time for you to see something like this] (Toru)

[Is that so] (Ria)

[Also, there are no guests who have visited this place since I was living inside the dungeon] (Toru)

[I see. Set aside whether I know how to use it, this is indeed an amazing Artifact] (Ria)

Apparently Ria is a honest person. It seem she was not accustomed to using flattery. But I think it's better that way.

[Then I will teach you how to use it. If you twist this faucet the hot water will come out. Use it to wash your body. The water has been set to just the right temperature, it's really convenient right? It was separate from the bathtub to keep it clean] (Toru)

I showed Ria how the shower produced hot water.

Lets try splashing the hot water to her.

I put the clothes on the top of her armor.........

.........

I just noticed it now.

This frosted glass also the real frosted glass, not a plastic-made fake.

In addition, its quite thin and less blurred.

Could it be a Goblin appeared? Or maybe a Slime? Even though she is a knight, but without her armor and sword she is just a girl. Damn it! I thought my room was a safe zone! Thats right the pick axe! Good, its still hanging on my belt, Im coming!

[Riaaaaaa!!] (Toru)

I opened the frosted glass door while shouting her name. Suddenly something transparent flew onto my face.

[Its coooooooooooooold!!] (Toru)

The shower was running wild like a snake while spraying cold water inside the bathroom.

[Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa---!!!] (Ria)

Rias scream still continued

I found out the cause of situation while still being deprived from my sight. This is not a Goblin or a Slime but a shower. Ria was surprised because she set the amount of water from shower to the max and made the temperature control to the coldest. Its just a guess thought. I turn off the water to stop the rampaging snake.

[Fwuh.... You see, when you want to increase the amount of water, please adjust it slowly. And then for water temperature....] (Toru)

I explain it while wiping my wet face with with my hands. My field of vision slowly recovered....

Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeh!!!

Whats come to my sight was Aria Eldoraks appearance on her birthday suit.

[Its not what you think! Thats.... well.... this is! I just come to help you!!] (Toru)

I turn my body and try to explain the situation to Ria behind me.

But its too late now....

It wouldnt be strange if she hit me....

I dont mind getting beaten if it can make her feel better....

But my body that had been cooled by the water from the shower wrapped in a warm feeling instead.

[I was scared........] (Ria)

Eh? apparently I was hugged by Ria from behind.

I heard a small cry.

Perhaps the fear from that time resurfaced again.... Im not familiar with this kind of thing so I dont know how to confort her.

Inside the dungeon she never knew when the enemy was going to attack. She was still haunted by her fear of the near death experince inside the dungeon alone. It cant be helped with this situation. She is trembling.

[Ria, are you alright?] (Toru)

[Im sorry. Just a little more....] (Ria)

I can feel a gentle feeling form her.

It would be better if she can rest soundly inside my room.

Thats right, I will come to get her shield that has been left at the dungeon. Though Im still afraid of the dungeon, but its alright. Im sure I wont meet a Gobllin or something.
