Chapter 141.5 Nightmare?

Part 2

“W-w-w… Why… Why did Sytry Onee-sama also come here…… This is Master’s room, you know?” (Tino)

“That should be my line…… What are you doing, Ti-chan?” (Sytry)

Sytry Onee-sama looked at Tino with a wondering expression. The place we were right now was, needless to say, in front of the door leading to the open-air bath in Master’s room.

The calm-colored yukata that differed from Onee-sama looked good on her. She was holding a white cloth in her right hand, and her eyes were blinking frequently.

Her pair of eyes didn’t have as much energy as Onee-sama, but there was a vast amount of wisdom hidden in them.

Sytry Onee-sama didn’t raise her voice. She was silent for a while, but suddenly put her finger to her lips and said.

“Were you maybe…… Peeping?” (Sytry)

“N-no, I am not! I was told by Master to protect this place!” (Tino)

“What…… I am relieved. If Ti-chan had been such a bad girl, I would have to punish her.” (Sytry)

I felt a chill run down my spine. Sytry Onee-sama’s voice said she was joking, but her eyes were serious.

I never thought of peeping, but I wonder what would have happened to me if my goal really was peeping……

Once again, I strongly felt the difference between her and Onee-sama.

Onee-sama is violent, but she doesn’t doubt Tino. Sytry Onee-sama is calm, but she is always on the lookout for anyone who approaches Master. Irrelevant if they are friends or foes.

“Well… Do your best then.” (Sytry)

Sytry Onee-sama smiled fascinatingly and tried to walk past Tino. Her movement was so natural that I was slow to react, but I hurriedly catch her arm.

If it had been Onee-sama, I probably wouldn’t have made it in time.

“W-w-w… Wait, please wait! W-what are you trying to do! Master is taking a bath right now!” (Tino)

“? Well, of course, I was going to wash his back ――” (Sytry)

“!?” (Tino)

She acts just like her sister. Moreover, there was no shame.

I caught her arm tightly, spun her body around to move her away from the door while she stared in wonder.

Don’t let your guard down. You can’t let your guard down for a second. Like against Onee-sama, guarding the door Master is in naturally occurred to me.

“No, no you can’t! Sytry Onee-sama, it is immodest! I have been told by Master to not let anyone go through here!” (Tino)

Fortunately, Sytry Onee-sama is a rearguard. Tino’s physical ability is higher than hers. As long as she doesn’t get caught in a momentary gap like earlier, she should be fine.

As Tino frantically guarded the door, Sytry Onee-sama blinked and tilted her head.

“Huh? Ti-chan ―― You said immodest, but maybe you misunderstood?” (Sytry)

“…… Eh?” (Tino)

Mis…… Understood?

When Tino stared in wonder and relaxed her tension, Sytry Onee-sama *kusukusu* chuckled with her cheeks turning slightly red.

“Ti-chan, you thought…… I was going to attend to him while being naked right? So indeceeent.” (Sytry)

Her teasing tone instantly sets my face on fire. My skin and my ears were even turning bright red.

Indeed, I had thought so. Sytry Onee-sama has a mild-mannered personality, but her sense of distance with Master is so close to Onee-sama’s that she wouldn’t lose against hers.

There is a danger that she will do anything if he requests it.

“Eh…… Eeeeeh……? W-was… I wrong?” (Tino)

“You are wrong. Unlike Ti-chan I am not naughty…… See, I brought my bathing suit properly.” (Sytry)

Sytry Onee-sama *nikoniko* smiled and unfolded the white cloth she was holding in her hand.

I thought it was a bath towel, but it turned out to be a white bathing suit. It was loose and thin, it looked a little like a yukata.

“If I put this on and wash his back… See… I won’t show any of my skin, right?” (Sytry)

“I-I see…………” (Tino)

“Kusukusu… There is no chance I will show my skin so easily. I am different from Onee-chan.” (Sytry)

“Ex-excuse me, I misunderstood……” (Tino)

I didn’t think there was such a method…… As expected of Sytry Onee-sama, she knows her stuff. As I have only known Onsen where you go in naked, I was trapped in the prejudice that this was how it was.

As Tino lowered her head, Sytry Onee-sama walked past her with a dignified manner and a *nikoniko* smile on her face.

The door closed quietly. Tino regained her composure and took a deep breath.

“…………………?” (Tino)

However, I immediately felt like I was forgetting something, so I blinked my eyes a couple of times and gently glanced at the door behind me.

I stared at the silent door for a while and thought about it, but then I came to my senses and hurriedly hit the door.

“Sytry Onee-sama!? It doesn’t matter! It has nothing to do with having bathing clothes or not! You can’t go in there! Sytry Onee-sama!?” (Tino)

In the first place, with such a thin bathing suit ―― And moreover a white one, it was likely to become transparent as soon as it gets wet. Maybe it would be transparent even if it doesn’t get wet.

There was no way Sytry Onee-sama wouldn’t have noticed that. She totally planned for this. She said that she wouldn’t so easily show her skin, but when she is going to wash his back, that becomes completely doubtful.

“Masteeeeeer, please run away!” (Tino)

.

Tino hesitated for a moment but quickly made up her mind.

Everything was my fault. I have to live up to Master’s expectations. I have to protect Master from Sytry Onee-sama.

Tightly closing my eyes, Tino took a deep breath and jumped towards the door.

“???????” (Tino)

“Angya?”

A kind of familiar round, light blue dragon looked at Tino and tilted its head.

Tino, too, tilted her head at its sight. Behind it was the door to the open-air bath.

Why is there a dragon in the room?

TL notes:

Thanks for reading!

Hahah Tino is so cute! Being misled so easily by Sytry! I understand now why Cry see her as a mascot XD

And did another dragon crashed into the ryokan? XD

Or was it all a dream (because title)?

Tsukikage-sensei said that this is just a short story and in next chapter hell will be unleashed without a warning! What will happen to Cry!?

Tchao à plus!
