After touring the city of Kikka to our heart's content, we decided to stay at the high-class inn that was arranged by Tori that day.
「 A bed after a long time...!」
After the inn's employee who showed me the room left, I dive into the soft bed.
The bed receives my body weight as it makes a *gishi* sound, and my body bounces.
I'm bouncing on the bed, enjoying the elasticity and soft futon-like sensation peculiar to such a bed.
As expected from a high-class inn for nobles and merchants. Of course, the room is wide, has a calm atmosphere about it, and the bed is big. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
There's no problem even if two adults are sleeping together on the bed. There are even two such beds.
If you join them together, then it will become an even wider bed.
As I thought of such a wonderful idea, I pulled the extra bed toward me with the non-attributed magic, Psychic.
Then, join them together. This made the already wide bed even wider.
I started to roll around the bed as if to confirm the width. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
It was as if my body is sinking into the futon as it's wrapping around my body and it feels comfortable.
If I lie face-down, there's a pleasant floral smell, and there's also the faint smell of the sun.
Just smelling this alone makes me feel as if it alleviates the fatigue from our trip.
I've been sleeping in a makeshift tent and wrapping myself with a blanket ever since I leave Koryatt village. I couldn't say that my body had enough rest.
I can sleep anywhere, but as expected, being wrapped in a soft futon on the bed is the best. It's safe because it's indoor, and there are no bugs. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
Hmm, as an example, I enjoyed using my all in sleeping even in some inconvenient places, but unfortunately, maybe it's because my body is that of a kid, there were times when my body became sore as a result.
However, if it's with this bed, then I can have a pleasant sleep tonight. I won't groan when I wake up because I hurt my back and waist.
I moved my body from the previous face-down position and tilted my body sideways.
When I look outside through the big window, the sun has already gone down and the sky is engulfed in darkness.
From lined-up buildings, I could see scattered lights from magic tools gradually lit up from all over.
Seeing the lights lit up one by one is kinda fun. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
While I'm lying down like that, - absent-mindedly staring at the night view - there was a boisterous noise can be heard coming from the corridor.
「Oopーs! My bed is the one at the inside!」
「Haa? Bugger off Irvine. You have a bad sleeping posture and you're going to the toilet right away so just take the one near the door.」
「It's fine, isn't it! You also said the same thing the other day and made me use the one near the door, didn't you? It's fine if I got the one at the inside this time right! 」
It looks like Irvine and Mort are arguing over who's going to use which bed.
Seems like fighting over a bed is the same even in a different world. It looks fun, just like a school trip.
But, I don't want to sleep together with those dirty guys.
「Then I'm the bed in the middle.」
「「Wait! Roomba-san please take the one at the inside!」」
「O, ou?」
Roomba's voice made Irvine and Mort be of the same opinion.
Roomba's snore is loud after all. So you might want to keep him at a distance.
In that case, the two of them would thereby fight for the bed near the door so that they can escape from Roomba's snore even if a little. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「Well then, I'll take the bed near the door. I mean, my sleeping posture is bad, and it's near the toilet, right.」
「No no, last time Irvine got the bed near the door, right? So this time Irvine can take the bed in the middle. You want to use the bed at the inside part of the room don't you?」
「Oi, that's different from what you said earlier isn't it....!」
「Back at you, even though you said you wanted the one in the inside.....!」
......sigh, they got into an unsightly argument.
I exhale, expecting that the quarrel would escalate after this.
Incidentally, the women's group is upstairs, so they might have already changed into pajamas and are having a cheerful conversation at this time.
While imagining the flower garden on the floor above and hearing the unpleasant shouting from the guys below, suddenly the corridor turns quiet. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
Oh, I wonder if they're done? I thought that their argument would develop into a drinking match or a pillow fight to resolve their argument just like my prediction, but it's not?
No sounds are coming from the corridor at all. Even if they somehow resort to negotiation, it should be noisy somehow since it is those people we're talking about.
.....strange. It's just like the calm before the storm. But, as if to dispel my doubts, my sixth sense that was developed by fighting with Eleonora-neesan is warning me.
Following my sixth sense, I immediately jumped up to my feet from the bed, and stuck my ear to the door, and listened carefully.
「...there should be two big-sized bed in Afried-sama's room. If it's joined together, then there will still be enough space left over even with the two of us sleeping on it.」
「I see. Alfried-sama is still a kid so he's small, so there will still be enough space for the two of us..... But, can we do something like sharing a room with noble-sama?」
「Alfried-sama is a lenient person, unlike those disgusting nobles. We should be able to share the room, probably.」
「Indeed. As long as we force ourselves into his room, then looks like he will just let us sleep inside.」
Along with some whispering voices, I can hear the rustling of clothes.
Those scumbags, they're going to intrude into my sacred space.
Moreover, they're trying to take advantage of my kindness in the confusion and use the bed.
Let's avoid this peacefully. Can't let those guys enter my room.
I immediately decided, step back from the door and lock the door right away.
A sound echoes in the corridor *gacha*.
「「Aahh!」」
Then I immediately turned off the light with the magic tool and dived to the bed while kinda listening to Irvine and Mort's surprised voice. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
And then there was a sound of people running on the corridor *dotadota*.
「Wait! Alfried-sama you're not sleeping, right? Hey!」
「I have an interesting game here, do you want to try it? I think you will like it Alfried-sama!」
「「So please, open this door!」」
The two of them raised their voices while banging on the door. Desperately trying to gain a comfortable sleep for the night.
Of course, those two's real intentions are obvious so I don't need to bother with them. Let's just pretend to be asleep as is. I also wanted to have a comfortable sleep.
「Oi! I know that you're still awake! You perceptive chap!」
「It hasn't been 10 seconds since you locked the door and turned off the light! That's too easy for you to fall asleep, don't you think!」
I'm a kid. I sleep early. From the start, I'm a person who falls asleep easily.
It's been a while since I close my eyes on a bed just like that.
「Dear guests. You're bothering the other guests, please keep quiet.」
「「I, I'm sorry」」
They were naturally warned by the hotel's employee since the two of them have been making some noise in the corridor. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
◆
The next morning.
After having our breakfast at the hotel, we depart from the city of Kikka, and head toward the port city of Aldonia Kingdom, Esport.
Saying my farewell to the comfortable bed, and the laid-back lifestyle of sleeping in a blanket inside a makeshift tent will continue for about four days. Moreover, there will be a week of a journey through the sea....... Although this is for Japanese foods, there's quite a big obstacle obstructing me.
I want to use Teleport to go back to the mansion.
I got on to the carriage while thinking about that to distract me, but there are already people inside.
It was Irvine and Mort. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「Your faces look pale. Did you get any sleep yesterday?」
「...this little chap. Even though you're awake yesterday you still said that.」
Irvine's pale face turned toward me when I started to innocently call out to them.
Maybe it's because his face looks old from the start, but now his face looks even older.
Mort has the same look on his face, he looked sleepy as he rubbed his eyes.
It's clear that the two of them don't get enough sleep.
「When we return to our room after that, Roomba-san has joined the bed together and he positioned himself in the middle.」
When Roomba was left alone in the room, he probably thought that 'If I join these beds together then it will become a big bed isn't it!?' He probably came up with something like that.
「That guy snored loudly, and he rolled around the bed inconveniencing us. I couldn't get a wink of sleep.....」
Mort muttered while his eyes looked somewhere far away. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
I can easily imagine Romba's large build as he rolled around on top of the bed with his arms and legs caught in the other's.
Until finally that large build is pressing down on you. It's probably going to be hard to push him away.
「In that case, the three of you sleep while looking like the character of river, side by side huh.....」1
「「......o, ou.」」
The two of them answered in a lifeless voice.
The wind blew on the carriage's roof, and a teardrop slowly flowed down from Irvine's eye.
