Coming back to Ur's house, Bourne felt quite sweaty and thought to have a bath.
"Ur, I'll take a bath."
"Wait, I'll go with you."
"Alright."
It wasn't rare for them to take a bath together considering that he was only six years old, when Ur thought that he had lost his memories which made her worried to let him take a bath in the bathroom alone.
Both of them went to the bathroom and started to take a bath. It was simply impossible to get warm water unless they decided to burn the wood outside. There also wasn't any electricity and Bourne also didn't think that there was electricity in this world since most of the things in this world were being fueled by magic power. Though in this house, he didn't really need electricity that much. Living in the snowy mountain, he didn't need to turn on the air conditioner, but a light was necessary. Before Ur usually used firewood to light up her house, but when he had made his business in town, he bought Lacrima and placed it on Ur's house.
Now someone might ask, what is Lacrima?
Lacrima is a magic crystalline substance found in this world. It can be powered up with different spells and used for different purposes. There are various kinds of Lacrima from Magically Charged, Communications Lacrima Crystal, Dragon Lacrima (the rarest one), etc. In the future, there might be more types of Lacrima since there are a lot of people who do research on it.
For normal people, they might not have an interest in Lacrima since they didn't have a magical power and it was too expensive to buy one which has been charged by electricity. They also felt that it isn't necessary to buy one so they don't need it.
But for Bourne, it was different since it could be used for a lot of things. It was impossible to get electricity so he got Lacrima which was being charged by magic energy. He was a magician and he didn't need to worry when the magic within the Lacrima emptied. He used it for a lot of things such as light, stove, washing machine, etc. Though, he didn't need a fridge since this place was freezing cold. Well, mostly he used it for home appliances, though, he was wondering why there wasn't any television when there was a washing machine.
The bathroom was quite bright and both Bourne and Ur washed each other's bodies. Most novels would make turn this scene into perverted scene, but he really couldn't do that since he was a child and he wasn't sure why, but he really couldn't think that this washing act as something perverted. He was wondering whether after returning to childhood his mentality somehow was also affected by it. His feeling might be strong, but it wasn't time for his body. He might need to wait a few years before his body is ready. He washed Ur's back with soap before washing it with water.
"It's done, Ur."
"It's your time now. Sit down."
"OK."
As Bourne sat on a small stall, Ur started to wash his body with soap. His body was short since he was only six years old, but it was quite muscular from the training which he had done most days. She looked at his back which somehow had grown bigger from last year. It might not have been her intention, but she also washed his beast which didn't show a reaction when she washed it.
'But it might be even bigger than my ex-husband now...'
Ur shook her head and thought that she really needed to educate him or else he might become scum in the future. She washed his body with cold water and smiled. "Let's enter the bathup."
Bourne nodded and followed Ur to enter the bathup.
Ur was leaning on the wall of the bathup lazily and Bourne was leaning on Ur's chest lazily. He had to admit that her chest was pretty soft which made him very comfortable to rest.
"Use your magic. I want warm water."
"......"
Bourne was speechless, but he didn't say anything. He used his heat magic to warm up the water on the bathtup.
Ur sighed softly and felt very comfortable within the warm water.
"Ice water is good, but warm water is divine."
"Agreed."
Ur smiled and caressed Bourne's head. "It seems your decision to learn heat magic is right. It is a very useful magic."
"......"
Bourne looked at Ur with a deadpan expression. His intention to learn heat magic wasn't to warm up the bath, but to supplement his "Water" magic. Though, he had to admit the hidden bonus of this magic was quite good. He thought for a while and remembered something.
"Ur, there is natural warm water near your house. Is it alright for me to make it into a hot spring bath?"
"Oh? Is there?"
"Yeah, I can detect it with my magic."
It might be because of his magic that he could detect the source of water in the surrounding area and by chance he had found a hot spring nearby.
"Do it. You have money after all. It is too wasteful to not use it."
Ur stretched her legs further and felt very comfortable. She hugged him and placed him in the middle of her chest so she could relax further.
Bourne didn't think too much and also relaxed.
Looking at Bourne who was resting at her chest, Ur thought that he might grow in the future and at that time, she might be the one who was leaning on his chest. She blushed and shook her head before closing her eyes. She was a bit sleepy and thought to sleep for a bit. Even though it was dangerous, there was an alarm on her chest. She was sure that he would wake her up later.
---
Laying lazily on the soft carpet, Ur rested her head on the pillow while looking at Bourne's figure in the kitchen. There was a lot of change happening at Ur's house when he came, such as the interior of her house. There were two dining tables, one with a high table which was similar to a western style, the other one was with a low table which made the people who ate on this table sit down on the floor directly.
It might seem rude, but Ur felt that it was very comfortable since she could sleep lazily while waiting for dinner.
"Bourne, what is for dinner?"
"Softshell turle soup."
"..........."
Ur was stunned and asked, "Seriously?"
"Yes, it tastes quite good. Wait for a bit."
"..........."
Ur didn't expect Bourne would be this cruel. She thought that the softshell turtle which was given by that old man was quite cute and thought that it might be good to make it into a pet, but Bourne had made it into their dinner.
"Well...."
Ur shook her head since what had happened then it happened. It was too late to stop him and what she needed to do was to not waste that soup.
It didn't take long before Bourne brought the pot to the dining table and started the dinner together with Ur. Sipping the soup, he wanted to eat it with rice, but it was hard to get it in this kingdom. He could only eat it with bread which made him speechless, though, he didn't complain since it still tasted good.
"It's good..."
Ur thought that the old man didn't lie since the softshell turtle tasted very good, and her body felt slightly hot. Though she didn't realize what kind of disaster would be brought by this softshell turtle soup.
