Chapter 48 : A Pervert Envy

「Well then, let’s book a double room first and hit the baths! 」

「……………Bath? What is that? is it powerful? 」

Leaving the labyrinth, Aria and the others are heading towards the inn. After explaining the situation to the mistress of the inn, she quickly arranged a double room for them.

By the way, Vulcan is absent for the time being since she’s tasked with arranging suitable clothes for the beauty who currently only had tattered rags.

Aria wanted to cleanse the body of the beauty in rags whose body was soiled by the dirt in the labyrinth proposed for them to take a bath, but………

She muttered 「This is going to be a pain in the ass……」 seeing that the beauty in rags had lost every bit of her memories to the point that she doesn’t even remember about baths.

「Let see, bathing is to soak your body in hot water to clean it you know. Don’t you remember experiencing it before?　Uhm……… Come to think of it, can you tell me your name? 」

「Ah, so that’s the place huh………… I do know about it but I have never done it before. As for a name, Our name is powerful one. ………… No to be exact Our “Was” a Powerful One. Now I don’t have anything to call myself with.」

「So that’s the case………… Well then, I guess you also need a name!　Is there a name that you wish to be called with? 」

「U~hm, call me with whatever you wish to call me.」

Even while unable to cope with the beauty who can’t even remember her own name, she asked if she has a name she wished to be called with.

Only to hear such a halfhearted reply. Or rather, the beauty in tattered rags seems to be more interested in Tama who is sitting obediently on top of the bed.

Seeing her, Tama just let out a purr as if to wait and see the situation.

「In that case, how about I give you a temporary name?　In fact, I have a name that really suits you! 」

「Do as you wish. Though I’ve said it before, Our doesn’t stick by something like a name. 」

「Well then………… Starting from today, your name will be 〝Stella?-chan!　It’s a word that represent beauty in my birthplace. 」

「Stella…………… Though I don’t understand what this beauty is, it has a nice ring in my ears. Moreover, I’m satisfied as long as it is a name that was given by a woman of your caliber.」

「Fufu, it’s great to hear that you like it. Please take care of me after this, Stella-chan?」

Her tone that seems respectful towards Aria made her curious about the girl-in-tatte-……… Stella, however despite that Aria’s still beaming with a smile in seeing the girl pleased with her chosen name.

（Fumu. Stella huh, nice name. As expected of my master, she has a good naming sense.）

Tama is also raising a purr of admiration for Aria’s naming sense with a 「Nya~~!」. 」Hearing his voice, Stella breath become rough as she says「OOO! Powerful One’s voice is as adorable as ever!」.

In seeing her excited state, Tama felt chills run down his spine as he recalls his great escape from her last night in order to protect his chastity.　He hid himself under the bed, shivering in fear.

「WHA! ?　Powerful One, why are you running away from me!　We just wants that powerful seed of yours……! ! 」

（That’s what I’m most afraid of damn it!　U~h………… Master, please do something about this perve-………）

Stella ended up saying so to Tama who looked up from under the bed. Even while trembling in fear, Tama is asking for a salvation from Aria from the deepest part of his heart.

「KORA!　Stella-chan, You can’t do that you know?　You’ll make Tama scared you know…………… Moreover, no matter what you say, Tama can’t impregnate you, HE’S STILL A CHILD.」

Seeing the frightened Tama, Aria enters in between to stop Stella. As his master, and as a woman who has fallen in love with him, she’s must do what she needs to do to protect his chastity.

Well……… Aria being Aria, she has a history of getting in heat and chasing Tama around………… That case aside.

「U~h………… It can’t be helped if you say so, I’ll give up for now…………」

After being warned by Aria with 「NO, YOU CAN’T DO THAT YOU KNOW?」, Stella is withdrawing reluctantly.

（Uhm, as I thought. This girl……… Stella, though I don’t know why, it seems that she’s obeying what my master says.）

Yes, Tama noticed that point about her. Yes, Stella might be respecting…… or fearing Aria, it must be one of those reasons.

Therefore, it’s possible to fix her habits as long as Aria is the one who corrects her.

「Well then, let’s take a dip in the bath!　It’s just the perfect time after the mistress of the inn fills the hot water.」

「So it’s what you said a while ago about bathing in warm water, unfortunately it’s not as interesting as having the child of the powerful one! 」

Straightened herself, Aria recommends the bath to Stella. Stella replies vigorously to Aria. Looking at Stella who was brimming with curiosity, Aria can’t help but to think, 「She really is like a child………」.

At the same time, she felt that she can’t just leave her, who has almost no memories left, alone………… Which was mainly due to her sense of justice.

「OOH!　WOOOAH, SO MANY BUBBLES ARE COMING FROM A STONE! 」

「This thing is called soap, something that you use to wash your body, Stella-chan. Now then, be a good girl and stay still so that I can wash your body, okay? 」

Thus Aria and Stella have such an exchange in the bathtub of the inn―― In their birthday suit. Stella’s curiosity is piqued by the bubbling soap in Aria’s hands.

（Uhm, even though I’m not supposed to be looking at another woman’s body except for my master, this really can’t be helped because of the situation………）

Tama is looking at their naked exchange from one corner of the bath while pondering about such things.

「You’re going in too right, Tama? 」

Aria invites Tama to take a dip along with them. Tama unintentionally retorted （Who’d want to get into the same bathtub as that perve-……!）.

（No, wait a minute?　Though this pervert is being obedient towards my master, isn’t this still too early to trust her?　Though I don’t know when, I have to stay at my master’s side as her knight as long as there’s a chance that she’ll bare her fangs towards my master.）

Thus, in order to protect Aria as her knight《Pet》, he decided to have a dip in the bath.

「WOOW!　The dirt on my body peeled off real fast!　This soap is amazing! ! 」

Stella whose body was washed by Aria is raising a voice filled with amazement. And her huge breast jiggle around due to her sudden movements.

「Well then, now that I’m done with washing your body, next is your hair. Please close your eyes since the bubble is painful if it enters your eyes? 」

「WAAA———! ?　No, I hate painful thing!　I absolutely won’t open my eyes! 」

Stella is slightly………… Or rather she tightly shut her eyes after being warned so by Aria.

It might have something to do with the pain in her eyes.　While worrying about such things, Aria gently washes Stella’s hair.

「U~h………… Are you done? 」

「Fufufu, just a bit more, I just need to rinse it with hot water you see.」

To answer Stella’s question, Aria washes the bubbles from Stella’s hair with hot water from the bathtub.

「OOH!　What is this! ?　My body feels refreshed! 」

Stella became quite excited after Aria washes off the bubbles on her body. That might be the natural reaction of someone who has never experienced a bath after cleaning their body.

「After washing your body, the best way to end your bath is to immerse yourself in the bathtub?」

「Immersing……… In the bathtub?　Do you mean entering this hot water?　Why…………?」

「For humans, especially for women, warming ones body in hot water is a matter of life and death you know, Stella-chan? 」

「U~huh?　I don’t know about that but if you say so, it can’t be wrong. ………… Oooh, it feels sooo good! 」

Stella still can’t understand what Aria means by “The matter of immersing oneself in hot water is a matter of life and death for a woman” but she did as Aria told her anyway.

Somehow, she’s really immersed in this current feeling.

「Now it’s Tama’s turn.」

「Nya~n! 」

Aria is on her knees as she calls to Tama. Replying cheerfully, Tama is then coming up to her from the corner of the room and then……… Jumping up on her lap with a pyon, and lying face up on her lap.

Aria always starts to wash from his fluffy stomach. So to match that, Tama is always getting in an appropriate position.

Nevertheless…… In this position, Tama is always taking a glimpse of her beautiful face from beyond her bountiful melons.

Even after experiencing such a lifestyle for a while, Tama is still moved to tears by such a magnificent spectacle to this day.

「S-So sly!　Our wants to wash the Powerful One’s body too! 」

When Tama is in seven heavens from being washed gently by Aria, Stella who saw that interjected with “Zuban! !　”Standing up from the bathtub, she’s protesting to Aria with an envious look in her eyes.

「Fufufu, you can’t do that you know, Stella-chan?　Washing Tama is my exclusive privilege as his owner. This is the only thing that I won’t pass to others. 」

Such a gentle Aria. Will surely lend Tama to Stella, or so one would expect…………… But she rejected do that.

After all, there’s three most enjoyable moments in a day for Aria that she won’t let anyone else have. And one of those is frolicking with Tama as she washes him.

Thus, she has no intention to let go of such an enjoyable moment even if it’s a request from a child-like Stella.

「Aah, How dashing of you, Powerful One! 」「My heart is throbbing just by seeing you! 」「Uuuuh! 」n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Raising such seductive voice with flushing red face as if she is holding something in, Stella………… Was looking upon the scenery of Aria and Tama doing “Washing up NyanNyanNyan” with an envious look on her face.
