I was about to leave the dining room after a relaxing dinner, and Sylvia smiled and ran over.

From the atmosphere, it seems we still need to talk in working mode rather than in private.

"You're both tired of a long journey, aren't you? Why don't you let your tiredness go in our bath if you like?

"Uh... I'm definitely tired..."

I am held to an invitation that is difficult to refuse, and vaguely clouds my words.

As a matter of fact, I haven't used the Spring Young Leaf Pavilion bath much since I came to Green Hollow, and the slightest experience of it has also been concentrated very early.

The reason is the circumstances that Garnett has.

In fulfilling the absolute condition of concealing her gender, bathing is the biggest problem.

The Kingdom of Westland is vast, so they say there are still regions without bathing habits, but overall, such areas are becoming a minority.

Green hollows, especially because of their strong tendency to be hot springs and easy access to hot water, were no longer common sense enough to wash their bodies off like every night.

The focus was muscular, so much so that when I went to the 'Demon King's Castle area' in the Town Guru to cooperate in the Demon King's War, I created a temporary bathing area in an underground space that could not draw in the hot springs.

However, there are few cases where individuals have bathrooms in their homes, whether it is the reversal of the development of hot springs and public baths.

Paying a cheaper price than an intermittent meal to use a public bathing area is the common bathing style for green hollows.

Naturally, there are no bathrooms in the building that became the prototype of the White Wolf shop, and we use the baths in town, but it's Garnett's gender that's the problem here.

Public baths and large baths are not available.

I have no choice but to take advantage of the private baths offered by some stores, but there is no such service in the Spring Pavilion of Young Leaves.

"(I couldn't say no without feeling uncomfortable before, but I haven't been doing that lately either...)"

Sylvia doesn't know Garnett's true gender, but she does know he's a knight who hid his identity to escort me.

So, although at first I was able to deflect my living environment uncomfortably in the name of 'Because I am in a special position as a knight', as Garnett became familiar with the town and could crack it down with Sylvia, I became uncomfortable with the fact that I was always dealing with it that way.

... Well, it's also possible that I just care too much because I haven't exactly confirmed what the others think.

"(Is it just time to think of another excuse...?

As she strolled through the idea during the slightest silence, Sylvia made sure there were no other staff or guests around and then began to say things she hadn't expected.

"Of course I haven't forgotten what happened to Mr. Garnett. Many other knights don't want to use the bathroom because they can't show that they use the same bathroom as soldiers, or because they're worried about getting their clothes and belongings stolen. I'm not gonna let that happen at my inn."

Sylvia put her arms under her chest and continued her words with a firm nod.

"So I decided to start a new service at our inn as well. We've been preparing ourselves for a long time, but while Luke and the others were in King's Landing, it was done."

"New service? Maybe a private bath or something?

"Yes! I've created a new small room for one or two people to use and enough private room for a small adventurer party to let them in at once! Not many of them yet."

That is just the good news.

There have been more knights and party-by-party adventurers, and I guess Spring Young Leaf Pavilion also worked on additional renovations to meet their demand.

"That's good. of the White Wolf. Because of this, don't you think it's okay sometimes? I'm the type of person who wants to slow down on my own, but the money costs two rooms. I'm not in trouble for that kind of money."

Apparently Garnett is also keen on Sylvia's suggestion.

As I always do in other baths, renting two private rooms would allow me to continue to delude Garnett's gender without discomfort.

So I asked Sylvia to pick up the bathroom keys, but for some reason Sylvia came back with a troubled face.

"I'm sorry. I only have two baths in my little room, but I think a family member just rented one."

"That's no choice..."

When I heard of enough family in a small room for one or two people, it occurred to me that Florence, the branch manager, and Lisa's mother and daughter.

I don't know if it's really those two, but enjoying a meal and a hot spring at the best inn in town on holiday would normally be a possible pattern.

And Sylvia came up with a proposal that was too critical for me.

"The rest of the small room and the bath for the party are available, can I come over there?

... No, I can't think of an excuse to naturally reject it.

Even if it's just a matter of preference to clean up wanting a different private room for each one, refusing to even have it together in a small party-sized bathroom can just get suspicious.

I look back to see what's going on and ask Garnett for his opinion.

But I wondered what Garnett had done, passing by me lightly, even though, as a matter of course, he had received a private room key from Sylvia's hand.

"You can't help but have one room available. Let's go, white wolf's."

"What!? Oh, hey......!

In front of Sylvia, she can't even pull back too hard, catching up with Garnett walking pale before diving in and asking questions.

"You know exactly what you're talking about."

The face, peering in as he walked shoulder-to-shoulder, was slightly dyed red on his cheeks, even as he frowned to disguise himself as grumpy.

"It's not like you don't understand. Temeh would...... that, that's fine. Always guess, idiot."

... Got hit. Such a look is too decisive for me.

If I had been told so clearly to the face, I could no longer refuse for any reason.
