Kujibiki Tokushou: Musou Hāremu ken

Chapter 21

21. If there’s one more piece.

Night time, inside the mansion’s bathroom.

Miu was washing my back inside a big bath. It was as big bath as big as the public bath which could easily fit 20 peoples in it,

“Nsho, Nsho……”

As Miu who was washing my back with her utmost effort looking very cute, she moves the towel up and down,

“Put a little bit more strength into it.”

“Haii!”

Just like what I had requested, Miu began to put a little bit more force in her scrubbing, but it didn’t last long. The force that she put slowly weakens overtime and she let out a cry “Fumyuu…” However, she didn’t let out a word of complaint.

Once in a while she would take a deep breath and stop breathing, and scrub my back strongly. Thus resulted in burst of scrubbing movement but soon after she began to ran out of breath and the scrubbing becomes weak. I know that she had been doing her job with her utmost effort, that’s why there was no dissatisfaction in my heart.

“Miu, is there’s anything that you want?”

I turn on my attention to what Miu have to ask after I asked her the question. I am going to start earning more and more money from now on anyway.

“Nshoo… Things that I want… Nshoo…isit?”

“Yeah, you can ask for anything.”

“Really? Nshoo… can I ask for anything?”

“Yeah, just say what you want.”

When I said it once again, Miu replied while looking shy.

“I want a scrubber…”

“A scrubber?”

I felt her reply was weird because it was a very unexpected answer.

“I-I’m sorry. Now is—.”

“No I’m not mad. What kind of scrubber that you’d like to have?”

“Um, the one that shaped like a glove, it had a rough texture so when you scrub your body with it a lot of filth would come off and it feels really good.” Miu explained.

When I heard that I became exited, I got that coming but…

“That, how much does it cost?”

“Eto, in copper coin it would be—.”

As expected, it was an item that was extremely cheap. With rough calculation, if I were to convert it to Japanese Yet to would be something that cost about 100 yen.

“So you want an item that was at 100 Yen shop level.”

Unintentionally I let out a mutter. That was just how much I was baffled by Miu’s request. (Miu has this baffled looked on her too “100 Yen shop?”)

“Is it a no go?”

“No it’s not. More like you can just buy that thing. That is a thing that we need in our daily life right? You can just buy thing like that without holding back.”

“Hai!”

I don’t have eyes behind my back but when she answered cheerfully, it was easy for me to determine the expression that she had on her face. The scrubbing was continued. Soon after, knocks on the door was heard. It was a knock coming from the entrance, as Miu doesn’t seems to hear it, I informed her.

“Miu, there’s someone who’s knocking the door. Can you go and give it a look?”

“Eh, I, I will go!”

Miu hastily exit the bathroom. Wearing her maid outfit cheerfully, she went on her way to get the door. On her way getting to the door I could hear the sound of her falling over something. Though she let out a little whimper, that does not discourage her and she continued heading to the entrance door.

I wonder if I should increase the number of maid that I have. With Miu alone, her work load would be too much for her to handle. As it going to be quite a big purchase with 300 silver coins which equals to 1 lottery ticket, I will order the maid through Saramas. After waiting for a while, Miu came back with trotting sound.

“Master, there’s a guest.”

“What kind of guest and what sort of business?”

“Um… A male who looked like an adventurer.”

“……Aah.”

I can somehow guess what that guy is here for. Did he come here to join my party too?

“Go and hear what he has to say, if its regarding forming a party with me reject him immediately and then come back here.”

“I got it.”

Just like what I’ve told her Miu went straight back to the entrance door and came back after a short while.

As I thought it was another party invitation by a guy, after he was rejected he left while saying that he will come again. Even if he come back my answer would still be ‘NO’ though.

After that I asked Miu to continue washing my back and then entered the bathtub while feeling good.

After I busied myself with a full course after I changed my clothing from bath, I had completely recovered from my fatigue. In exchange, Miu was completely exhausted.

“Miu.”

“Yes, what is it master?”

She called out to my name with more ‘fighting spirit’ in her tone which caused her to look very loveable.

“Let’s mofu mofu!”

“—Hai!”

Miu was taken aback for a second, but soon after her face was all smile. That night, I slowly and thoroughly spent my mofu mofu time with Miu.

☆

The following day, I went to the place where I completed the monster subjugation quest and went around the whole place to look for lottery ticket. Added with the tickets that I got from buying the bracelet from Saramas, altogether I have about 10 lottery ticket; thus, I quickly went to draw the lottery.

In the lottery room there was another visitor that came before me, it was a man who I recognized.

“Um, you’re from that time…”

“The tentacle……”

He was the man who won the lottery before me; first prize at the shopping district and obtained a skill called [Tentacle].

“I see, so you were also transported to a different world.”

“Aah.”

“Have you been doing well.”

“I’m doing so-so.”

“Doing so-so huh. I’m doing so-so too.”

He looked at the behind of my back. It was Eleanor who was in her human from whom I’ve brought along. For some reason he was grinning at me. I got the feeling that he might have misunderstood a lot of things. But as it was not something worth worrying about, I just made up lies on the spot regarding Eleanor.

“So, as you’re here. Does that mean that you have collected enough lottery ticket too?”

“Aah.”

“I’m sorry but as I was the first one who came here. I’ll be spinning the lottery machine first.”

“Un.”

After I nod, the man went to the staff direction. After that he hand over a bunch of lottery ticket to the staff.

“Nee-chan, here it is 100 piece of lottery tickets.”

“Please wait for a while—Okay, 100 piece of lottery tickets. You can draw the lottery for 110 times.”

“Yoshi! Previously I used 30 lottery tickets this time I’m going to get the first prize for sure.”

I was shocked when I heard the sentence that the man had said with complete enthusiasm.

100 piece, the draw tha he did before was 30 piece?

Does that mean before he had collected 30 lottery tickets? Up until now I’ve only been successful in getting 20 lottery tickets. Just how exactly did he accomplish such feat?

……I better ask for a few tips on how to obtain lottery ticket easily—that was what I thought.

The man turned the machine handle enthusiastically.

Gara gara gara. Pon.

After the sound of the handle being spin was heard the sound of ball coming out from the machine followed. Following the black balls, occasionally white balls would come out. Most of the time he drew the consolation prize, as if the machine was being sorry, sometimes the fifth prize would come out.

And that—continued until he finish drawing the lottery 110 times.

“Aah! Dammit! This time too, all that I got were a miss!”

“It was unfortunate.”

“It can’t be helped. At least there were quite a lot of white balls that came out. I will use these balls on the female knights.

I feel like I’ve heard something that was outrageous but I acted like I didn’t hear anything, the man received a pouch, inside it were the balls that he won. I took out all the tickets that I got which amounted to 10 pieces and hand it over to the staff.

“Only 10 tickets?” The man said from his side.

“I was not able to gather much.”

“Coming here with only 10 lottery ticektes is naive, with only 10 tickets you won’t win anything good. You’ve seen what had happened to me before right?”

“I guessed so.” My face turned bitter. As one would expect after seeing how his luck went earlier my enthusiasm to draw the lottery had lessened greatly.

Well, I already came here and all, I’ll just replenish the while ball that I’ve used earlier and then go

back home. With that in my train of thought I spun the lottery machine.

Gara gara gara. Pon.

“……Eh?”

“You must be kidding me right!!??”

The man screamed to his lungs out looking at his wit’s end. In a first try I won something other than the consolation prize— it was a golden colored ball.

“Congratulation, you’ve won the fourth prize.”

The handbell was rung.

The man began to groan even more when the staff gave me her ‘blessing’. Eleanor who had been watching the whole incident from behind let out a small laugh, “Puu.”

I’ll be depending on you guys again to find any mistakes that supposedly ‘too many to fit in the comment section’.
