An Incompetent Explorer Who Failed to Make His High School Debut but Mastered Being a Human Being - CH 154

Episode 154: Mixed bathing

“W, well then, please have a good time.”

“Yes, thank you very much.”

“Thank you very much!!”

“Thank you!!”

“Thank you very much.”

After receiving the clothes and amenity goods that can be used in the store from the clerk who was still nervous even after we finished the guide and thanked them, we headed to the bath first.

In the end, there were only about 30 minutes left before the store closed, as it took quite a while to guide us through the facility.

Of course, the store manager, Sakakibara-san, told us that we didn’t have to worry about the closign time, so I think it will be fine, but I still feel uneasy when I see the customers gradually leaving the building.

“Well then, Onii-chan, we’re going in here!!”

“Well then, Satou-kun.”

“See you later, Fuhito-kun.”

“Hmm.”

everyone waves to me in front of the girls’ bath.

“Aah. See you later.”

“”Yes.””

After I see them off as they enter the women’s bathroom, I walk towards the men’s bathroom.

The remaining male customers are staring at me with sharp eyes as if trying to kill me, but please refrain from doing so since my relationship with everyone is that of me, my sister, and my party members.

It’s not hard to understand because all four other than me are beautiful girls. Other than my little sister, the other three are eye candy.

When I entere the men’s locker room, most of the lockers are locked because the facility is about to close, and there seems to be almost no customers left. There are some customers here and there, but most of them seem to have already left and gone home.

On the contrary, when I am passing nearby, I am glanced at with a face like ‘This guy is going to enter now?’.

“Oh, it feels different from the dormitory.”

If the dormitory is a super public bath, I think it’s close to saying that this is a stylish warm pool where you can enter in a swimsuit. The rule here is that men should wear a type of bathing suit, and women should wear clothes similar to the white clothes worn by shrine maidens.

Because the open-air bath is a mixed bath.

I don’t plan on going there, but it seems that people of all ages can enter the open-air bath wearing a bathing suit.

I wash off the dirt from my body first, then go into a normal bath like usual. Since I’m going to take a long bath today, I choose lukewarm temperature.

“Aah ~ .”

A voice like an old man’s comes out on its own.

When you think of a bath, this is it.

For a while, I am swayed by the flow created by the hot water that is being added all the time, and I am dazed without thinking about anything in particular.

“Huh?”

Suddenly, I notice that there is no one around me. When I check the clock in the bathhouse, it is already past closing time.

“I see, everyone has already gone home …”

I mutter to myself when I realize that all the guests who were in the building before had gone home and everyone was gone.

I wonder if the girls are taking their time. This may be a discriminatory way of thinking, but I feel that it is very stressful for women to keep fighting, even if it is not a man’s job to fight.

I’m sure they have things to worry about, but for today, I want them to be free and relax slowly without thinking about anything.

“Should I go into the sauna now?”

I get out of the bath and head to the sauna.

-Garagaragaraaa (TN:Rattling noises.)

However, at that time, the door to the open-air bath opens.

“Ah!! Found Onii-chan!!”

Nanami comes in wearing a bathing suit.

“No, why did you come into the men’s bath!! You shouldn’t do that!!”

“Eeh ~ !! It’s already closing time, so I was told to go with you!!”

When I shout, Nanami puffs out her cheeks and replies back.

Hey, what are you doing, that clerk!!

“Hmm.”

For some reason, Shia also enters with Nanami from behind her and mutters briefly.

No, even if you say that, I don’t understand.”

“I came!!”

Amane also comes in with a line like a girlfriend who has just come to her boyfriend’s place.

“H, hello ~ .”

And even the cool beauty, Rei, who would never come, comes at the end.

What the hell is going on!!

“Wawawawawait a minute. Nanami aside, why are Shia and the others coming too?”

“I thought together is good.”

“I thought it would be lonely if you were alone.”

“I’m kind of restless when I’m alone …”

When I hurriedly turn around and ask, each of them give their reasons.

For Shia, it seems likely, and for Amane, it’s also a likely reason. But I don’t think it’s okay for Rei to come to the men’s bath just because she’s feeling restless.

“Onii-chan, why are you facing away?”

Nanami peers into my face.

That’s because I feel like a man who entered a women’s bath. I feel like it’s something I shouldn’t see.

“It’s like a swimsuit, so it’s fine, right?”

“Hmm.”

“Ah, well.”

“I’m a little embarrassed, but I’m fine.”

When Nanami turns back and confirms with everyone, it seems like everyone is okay with being seen.

“I, is that so?”

“Yes.”

I look back at them.

Looking at them again, even though everyone is wearing a bathing suit, the important part of the bathing suit is not transparent, but it is made like a miniskirt yukata, and the part that sticks is transparent, the bare legs peeking out from the bottom hem are very sensational.

“Hey, hey, Onii-chan, what do you think? Does it suit me?”

Nanami stands next to everyone and strikes a pose.

“Aah, it suits you well.”

“Fufufu, at times like this, it’s no good just praising one person, you know.”

“A, aah. Shia, Amane, and Rei all look good together and are cute.”

When I praise Nanami, I was told to praise everyone else, so I praise them.

“Hmm.”

“Right?”

“Oh, thank you. It’s kind of embarrassing.”

Shia’s expression doesn’t change with a triumphant face, Amane smiles like a little devil, and Rei averts her gaze and blushes as she replies.

“The time from now on is like a reservation for us, and they said that we can use it freely. First of all, everyone should take a bath.”

“Yes. I haven’t gone in an open-air bath, so maybe I will.”

“We haven’t either, so it’s just right!!”

“Yeah, it looks nice.”

Following Nanami’s statement, we move to the open-air bath.
