The Strongest Wizard Becomes a Countryside Guardsman After Taking an Arrow to the Knee

Chapter 415 – Into the Bath

So I told the magic wolves,

「Thanks for playing with Shiggy. We’re going to the bath now, so I’ll see you later.」

「Wuff!」「waffwaff」

The wolves all seemed to understand, sat down, and barked at us.

The cubs might not have understood, however, so they kept running around my feet.

「Okay, see you.」

「So cute.」

「Yeah, you guys can play with Shiggy later.」

I petted them, and we all left.

「Shiggy’s auntie will give you some treats.」

Timi said, throwing some meat to them from her bag.

They looked very happy.

『Thank you for that.』

「Don’t worry, it’s to thank them.」

Femm thanked her and Timi thanked Femm back.

「Old man! To the bath!」

「Yeah, I know.」

We got into my house and Millet came running,

「Welcome back, Mr. Al.」

「I’m back.」

「So, was Elkay alright?」

「For now. We’ll check again tomorrow.」

「I see. Would you like to eat dinner here?」

「I was expecting to…」

「Good, then I’ll make you something special!」

「Thank you, Millet.」

「Wuff!」「Moo moo!」「PiggGi」

All of the beasts were ready to eat.

「I’m going to get in the bath with old man.」

「Ah, that’s nice.」

「Are you coming, sister?」

「Well, I…」

「Collette, don’t bother your sister.」

「Whaaa?」

Colette puffed her cheeks out, a bit angry.

「Moo moo!!」

Moofy started pushing me towards the bath.

She was very strong even in her smaller form.

「Don’t push. I know, Moofy. I want to get in too.」

「Moo!」

「Okay, Millet, I’ll take a bath and be back.」

「Sure, take your time」

So I went in the bath with Femm, Moofy, and Chel.

「ryaaryaryaa ryaa」

「You don’t have to take clothes off, all of you, so it must be nice.」

「ryaaa?」

「Collette, how about you?」

「I can do it myself.」

So I took off my clothes, covered myself with a towel and went in.

All the beasts were waiting for me inside.

「Sorry for making you wait.」

「Sthhiggy, I’ll wash you, okay?!」

「ryaa!」

So Collette grabbed Shiggy and dashed off to the bath.

「Don’t run! It’s dangerous!」

「Yesth Sthir…」

I went inside and all the beasts were seated waiting.

Near the place I always wash myself was Femm, Moofy, and Chel.

「Femm, wait until Collette gets washed off.」

「Wuff」「Moo」「Pigi」

So I helped Collette get washed off.

If you made her wait, then she might catch a cold, unlike the other beasts.

「Collette, wash your hair first.」

「Thanksth old man. I’ll wash Shiggy too.」

「Thanks」「ryaa」

So I washed her off and rinsed her while she washed off Shiggy.

「Sthiggy? Are you itchy sthomewhere?」

「ryaaryaa!」

「Hey, stop flapping your wings!」

「ryaa」

Shiggy was happily enjoying the bath. Then Chel bounced up to us.

「ryaa!」

「PiGGi」

Now Shiggy jumped on Chel and attempted to wash it.

「ryaa ryaa ryaa」「Pipiggi」

Shiggy actually did it quite gently and Chel was happy.

Femm just sat there while Moofy seemed to be getting bored, so she walked over and started chewing my hair.

「Moofy! You can’t eat my hair!」

「Mommf?」

Moofy looked surprised. Either way, I finished rinsing off Collette.

「Okay Collette. Get into the bath.」

「Thankth. I can wasth your back off.」

「You’ll catch a cold, so hurry and get in.」

「Okay, go on Shiggy and Chel.」

「ryaa」「pigGi」

Shiggy really wasn’t that dirty. She might not have even needed to be washed.

Chel was the same. Any dirt would just slide right off.

For some reason Chel just sat there waiting for me.

「Collette, be careful in there.」

「I know. I’m good at sthwimming.」

「Just take care.」

「Okay…」

「Moofy wait a second.」

So Moofy waited with her mouth on my head while I washed Femm.
