Living as an Unemployed in Another World - Living as an Unemployed in Another World chapter 101

101 – 4. Silence in the Helmet (17)

17.

Doouk, water droplets fell on the surface of the water. I won’t bother to describe where it came from.

The door closed while I stood there dumbfounded, and the noise was quite loud in the silence. Even the paladin, whose eyes were wide open and hardened beyond embarrassment, hurriedly soaked himself in the bath as if he had suddenly come to his senses at the sound while grasping the situation…… It didn’t make any sense now.

Her gray hair rises to the surface and spreads widely. It’s like a cloud. I wanted to open the door right away and run away, but my small-sized conscience was holding me back, preventing me from doing so. I spoke to her in her voice, which echoed in her confined space.

“No, that’s it. To wash up.”

“… ….”

“I’m going to wash too, why…… ?”

This may be a rather inconsiderate question, but the only thing I did wrong in this situation was not looking away right away. But it can’t be helped. It’s not the first time I’ve seen a naked body, but it’s the first time I’ve seen a woman’s body trained to that extent in my life. A beautiful female body with flexible curves and clear muscles. It was too stimulating for me, who had a vague perception that a woman’s body was just as soft, even though she was familiar with adventurers.

Plus, I don’t know why she was taking a bath by herself when she hadn’t asked anyone to come into her bathroom yet. Has the story gone? Men and women are still fighting over who will enter first. Soon after, she struggled to open her mouth. Harder than usual.

“Well, I asked, and there is a bathroom.”

“… ….”

“Besides, wash first.”

Soon afterward, her voice shrank and faded into silence. Her ears are red, not because she is soaking in hot water. Who told you Is it Mira? Celine? No matter who she was, other guys besides her would think of her as her man, so it wouldn’t have been a big deal to give her bathing routine to the protagonist of the day. Besides, her armor is also soaked in her blood, so she probably won’t be able to tell anyone to wait for that visual.

I understand the situation. I don’t want to show myself in front of others, so when I go to the bathroom wearing armor, hot water is ready and I’m away, so it’s easy to misunderstand. But what if someone comes in? Pretty defenseless. She murmured, as if she had come up with a similar thought in my silence.

“It’s been a while since I took a bath. I’m sorry.”

After a while, her mouth fell shut. At this point, she has squeezed out her voice as much as possible. If I stay here, it seems that an irreversible situation will happen again like before. I grabbed the doorknob and said without looking back.

“I-I’m sorry too. You should have knocked.”

“… ….”

“I will be uncomfortable, so I will leave. I won’t let the others in, so when you’re done, just come and talk to me. Waiting for you.”

Is this enough? To be honest, there was another reason I couldn’t look back. When he encounters a naked body that draws a different curve from Mira, the scene keeps playing in his head infinitely. In particular, the imagination multiplies when you think of the abs perched above her navel. If you continue like this, your lower body will explode out of control. I was already about to push through the door with hesitant steps.

──f*ck!

“…… Uh?”

The door was closed by an unnatural wind from outside! Why is this happening? I pushed the door as hard as I could, but it wouldn’t budge. After wrestling with the doorknob for a while, I…… It was only then that I realized that it was a phenomenon caused by a spell.

Look back. She is immersed in her bathtub with her body hugging her, and she glances at her with her side face exposed.

Do you know that?

Paladins are also spellcasters.

Why is everyone doing this to me?

I’ve already cast a spell today, and I don’t have the strength or courage to break down the door. In the end, I couldn’t help but walk backwards, hesitantly, not showing my face…….

※

I feel it all over again, but I feel that she is living an uncomfortable life.

First of all, armor. According to Gerald, the equipment feels like one body once you get used to it, but isn’t that clunky piece of metal more comfortable than cloth clothes? I glanced at the plate armors neatly removed in the corner of the bathroom.

Every time I go out, I tie and tighten each part, and if it were me, I would never live like that. I’d rather take it all off I can’t even take off my helmet to cover the scars on my face, so just imagining it makes me feel sweaty.

And communication. It is said that it is possible to communicate with the same clergy through telephony even from a distance, but if you try to talk to an ordinary person like me even once, she pours her holy power and has no choice but to open the passage herself. Of course, it’s hard to say it out loud, and it’s hard to explain it. It was to the extent that I was somewhat misunderstood.

I think about what the world is like for a person living such a life. If it were me, I fall into such assumptions. Why are you suddenly fantasizing like that?

“… ….”

Yes, even now we are holding hands. The problem is that the person on the other side is still naked.

I saw her arm slipping out of the bathtub. Long forearms with well-defined fine muscles. But still a little thin compared to me. Do you mean wielding a hammer like that with a body like this? Her wet hand gently held my hand, and her calluses at the border of her palm and fingers held mine together like teeth.

“… ….”

I’ve seen it a lot where. I think I had a similar situation with Mira and Celine. With a thin tub in between, she held my hand and was silent for a long time, then finally spoke to her.

『…… First of all, I’m sorry for showing you my ugly side.」

I almost turned around when I heard that. Are you ugly? Although it was brief, there was not a single ugly part of her naked body facing her head-on. Rather, everything was so perfect that it felt like a work of art.

Yeah, the burns on her face are, of course, horrible scars. Even the deep cut on the cheek may be far from the beauty of a woman. From what I’ve experienced, even the female adventurers who don’t show much embellishment tried to cover up the scars on their faces with paint. When Merylda meets Gerald, she always smells strange because of the cream she puts on her face.

But put aside all those conventions, she wasn’t ugly at all. Being a devil or a heretic, he didn’t look like anything that would circulate such rumors. Excluding her scars, her beauty felt sacred at first glance, and among the beauties I knew, she could be counted on my fingers.

“Not at all.”

Isn’t this deception? I sincerely thought so, so I answered plainly. I thought she would try to refute her saying that she didn’t have to be considerate. It was only Her elevated body temperature was transmitted to my hands as well.

The convenience of conversation through blessing is that it is not affected by beatings. Her mouth was submerged, but I could hear her voice clearly.

『…… Today, I saw the adventurers fighting and thought.”

“What?”

『They didn’t run away.』

Are you talking about night battles during the day? It’s strange, there must have been a few guys who ran away when Winterwolf chased them. When I tilted her head, she slowly raised her head from the water——of course, it was just an analogy based on the sound——and spoke calmly.

『I learned that an adventurer’s mission is to go on an adventure. And, they had an adventure today without fail. We won a great victory against the Winterwolves, who are by no means easy opponents.”

“…… You’re giving ignorant people too much attention.”

『Jin, you too.』

She lightly tightened her hand holding mine. Perhaps, now it seemed to be looking straight at me. The side face is hot.

『Leading them, leading them to victory, and protecting the children from the wolf, who was never weak…… It was you, not me, the knight. Jean, you don’t always want to show off, but now even I get a glimpse of it. That this inn, this town, this people are so precious to you. And that you are always fighting for something important.”

Chew, I heard her raise her body. The knight continued.

“You haven’t changed a bit since we met again after a long time.”

Well, as usual, I would have said something nonsensical about being stabbed alone, asking if it still means being lazy…… I waited silently for her words.

『I am a knight. I swore to God and decided to fight for the rest of my life. However, I am running away instead of fighting right now.”

I could easily guess the words behind it.

What can I deny, from fate?

Soon, slowly, slowly, she came to me, cutting through the water.

『Thanks to you, I made up my mind. I will not run away anymore.”

“Knight.”

『As always, God does not give an answer. If silence is an oracle for me…… Everything will depend on me.”

Her firm arm, her soft embrace, embraces the back of my head. Her voluptuous breasts touched the nape of my neck, but I couldn’t enjoy the feel. The gray hair that flowed down my collarbone was soaked with water and gleamed clearly.

『Tomorrow, as soon as the day dawns, I’m going to leave.』

“… ….”

『When I return to the capital, I will probably go to where my father is. I’m not sure what I can do there. If I could pray, I would pray, if I could take my life as collateral, even if I became a servant of priests and used them as tools, I probably would. I intend to do everything that can be done. Even so, if the results don’t change, I can’t help it…….』

For the first time, I felt a certain will in the whole tone, not in the voice.

『…… Still, let’s fight. Because that is what a knight is.”

I couldn’t answer. I sat quietly in her arms as she embraced me. Because I know this is my last goodbye. He was hesitant to even hold her hand, knowing that it was the utmost sincerity that a woman who had lived her entire life as a knight could do.

I slowly grabbed her arm around my neck and…… Soon, I turned her body around and carefully held her neck with both hands.

“──.”

The knight suddenly met naked and averted his gaze. At least I’m glad you didn’t blow me away with that monstrosity. Her vocal cords were damaged, and only a futile noise leaked out from her throat, like a hiccup.

We are now connected, through divine power. Each other’s soul and soul are connected as one. Her message is also clear to me.

『Ji, Jin. Let go You shouldn’t do this. I’m god…… 』

Sorry, I can’t hear anything. I wrapped my palms around her long neck, slowly closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

Just as Janice contacted me and explained the structure of her slot, I will try to imitate something similar.

With her long hours and experience with her on two occasions, I was able to roughly grasp her slots as well as the parts of her where the curse was attached. And now, the time has come to test that theory.

Jenice once told me. The spell I use is a kind of curse in the form of a spell. That said, it wouldn’t be able to be stopped with normal save or protection spells. Then, does it work for non-living things?

The Devil’s Curse? Nothing special. The reason their curse is particularly strong is because they put their souls into it. That is why the devil’s curse is so powerful.

A curse is something that comes from desire. The curse that she wears, covering her face with her helmet, infiltrates her desire to communicate with people. A vicious curse created only by her demons to haunt her for the rest of her life.

A simple idea.

A complex and strong curse that cannot be lifted even with the power of a priest. A fragment of the demon’s soul. Just crush it with an even stronger curse——just like Alicia did.

What the devil said.

Who do you think made this of my heart?

“Gagging.”

She groaned. Beating heart. I cast an order. Right now, holding the tumor on her vocal cords with both hands.

“Shatter【Crush】.”

Wow! The blood that flowed from the inside of her throat filled the corners of her mouth. Whoever sees it will kill you. In reality, it’s just casting a spell at a curse that contains a soul, not a living creature. My slot seems to be like that. It worked for the lich, but there’s no way it won’t be eaten by a demon’s soul.

Before long, she vomited blood all over her bathroom floor. Would it have been better if it had been disintegrated? It feels like I hurt my neck unnecessarily. Blood and flesh entangled, the gooey dark red liquid slithered, and eventually it was scattered in all directions by vibrations. The soul disappears and… ….

“Cool. Ah… ….”

What I heard was the voice of the heavens.

“Ah, ah.”

She spoke like a newborn baby. Tears slowly pooled in her bulging eyes.

I can’t hear anything. So, now tell me with your own mouth.

“────.”

She sobbed incessantly.

She sobbed and sobbed again.

As she held me in my arms, she repeated an inaudible murmur over and over again, probably calling my name.

I hope someone doesn’t come. Don’t get me wrong I patted the back of his small head several times for a while.

With this one step. The chest is full. Her blood pressure rose, causing her head to thump and her vision to blur. It doesn’t matter though.

If you want to take the soul, you can take it. No, actually, I’m still afraid. It suddenly occurred to me that I had clung so much to magic for this very moment.

Even though I, an insignificant human being, cannot save you.

Everyone wants a helping hand. That moment in life will definitely come someday. Knights were no exception. However, she waited too long.

Now, that moment has just arrived. Even the gods are savage.

I’m glad. To be able to help
