Surviving a Harsh Fantasy with Cheat Items (WN)

Chapter 98.1: Lyle-Sensei’s Confession

One day, when my wedding with Queen Silhouette, which had been postponed until the postwar turmoil settled down, was finally about to take place, I was summoned by Lyle-sensei.

Whenever he called me by name, it was always when something serious had happened. I shuddered when I thought that the moment I had been waiting for had finally arrived.

After Ive completed my preparations, I visit senseis room in his Ambazac residence. He is sitting on the bed, waiting for me.

He was wearing neither the formal attire of a state official nor his usual tight-fitting, buttoned-up secretary uniform but a loose-fitting robe worn by mages.

Despite what he was wearing, his expression was firm, his hands were on his knees and he sighed as soon as he saw me.

Even on the battlefield, sensei has a smile on his face but now, he looks more nervous than ever. Something must have happened.

You wanted to see me, sensei.

Yeah, I called you here today because of an appointment.

Senseis voice is trembling a little. This feels out of place and I dont know what to do.

Senseis room is filled with stacks of papers, magic tools, and books. Theres no room for me to go so I thought Ill just sit right next to him.

Takeru-dono, you are very close.

Cant I sit next to you?

Ehto, maa, its okay. Im just troubled about how to start since a while ago.

Tell me everything.

Perhaps it would be easier to talk about it if we take a bath together.

Okay, lets go!

Sensei laughs ahahaha as I stood up with exaggerated delight.

Hopefully, that will make his nervousness ease up a little.

Come to think of it, Takeru-dono has been asking me to take a bath with you ever since we met. I just passed it off as a joke but there was a reason why we couldnt go in together.

So, the best way to talk about it now is to get there together!

Yes, Im afraid cause its not a pleasant subject but soaking in hot water might soothe you somewhat.

Sensei, Ive already asked Roll to fire up the bath so if youd like, we can get in right away.

The tub is still filled with water and will be slightly warm at the beginning of warming. However, it should reach the right temperature after a while.

Sensei was a little surprised to hear that the water is already being warmed.

Why is it being warmed already? Did Takeru-dono anticipate that things will go like this?

I thought that if sensei was going to show the secrets of your body, it would be easier to take a bath than to simply undress.

Lyle-sensei placed the palm of his hand on his slender chin and smiled in amusement.

Ill keep quiet about the fact that I ran to Roll thinking that today would be the day where I would climb to adulthood with Lyle-sensei and I have cleaned myself earlier as preparations.

I didnt expect Takeru-dono to anticipate my actions which means it should already be warm. Very well, I have made up my mind.

Sensei gets up from the bed and quickly brushes the knees of his robe before leaving the room.

I hurriedly followed him behind. Finally, were going to take a bath together.

Ill put a sign on the door saying Cleaning in progress so that no one would barge in.

Even though I already did that, Lyle-sensei still locked the door using magic.

I guess he really doesnt want others to see his skin. And the thought that he would only show it to me made my heart flutter.

Takeru-do, please go ahead and take a bath. Ill be right behind you.

I understand.

In the bathroom, I poured hot water over myself and slowly soaked in the bathtub, and waited.

It was slightly warm but it would get warmer in time and I might stay rather long so this was just fine.

Sensei opens the door to the bath and comes in.

Finally..

..why are you wearing clothes in the bathroom?

This is my bathing suit.

I almost fell over.

I guess sensei will take it off after some time. But why cant he just take it off now? Ive been trained so much by the real fantasy world that Im prepared to accept any tragedy.

Sensei was wearing a thin yukata-like white robe.

I couldnt see his skin through it and it was more amorous than being naked.

And as expected, sensei has boobs and a soft female body. And it looks like her short brown hair has grown a little longer recently which makes her look more girly.

Now, whats the secret sensei is hiding?

Sensei, youre not going to go straight into the bath in your bathing suit, are you?

My apologies. Ive come this far but I cant just do it.

Sensei sighed.

Normally, I would be inclined to forgive him but not today. Ive come prepared so sensei should be the same.

Lyle Laertius, youve come this far just to renege on your promise.

Its been a long time since Ive seen Takeru-dono this serious. I understand. Please take a look.
