Chapter 190: Who Is The Dirty One

「So, where’s the place with slimes?」

I ask Torr as we walk along the road between the fields of Koryatt village.

「I often saw them near the river and forest! First, we’ll head to the river, where we always play at!」

「Huh? But it’s closer to go to the forest from here, we’re not going to the forest first?」

It’s really closer from here to the forest.

The river where we always played is in the direction close to the mansion, so it will take more time to walk there from Koryatt village.

If you want to efficiently visit those two places, then shouldn’t we go to the river after going to the forest first?

Hearing my simple question, Torr and Asmo - who were walking - suddenly stopped.

「……what would Al do if you found slimes in the forest?」

「I will immediately go back to make slime pillow」

I taught Sylvio-niisan about slime pillow’s greatness in the morning, and it’s already past noon.

So if possible, I would like to show him slime pillow’s greatness as soon as possible.

「See!? If you did that, then Asmo and I have to back to work again!」

「And besides, there is no river near the forest, so we can’t cool ourselves down!」

Torr said with an angry look on his face, looking as if his saliva are about to fly everywhere, and Asmo also agree with him.

These guys, they’ve been freed from work and now they plan to thoroughly enjoy their time.

「Okay okay. Don’t be mad, we’ll go to the river and I won’t go back immediately, okay」

「As expected from Al, you understand us!」

When I said that while shrugging my shoulder, Torr’s expression did a complete change as he start to grin and hit my back.

It would be cruel of me if I were to say goodbye - as soon as I got the slime - to Torr and Asmo after I took them out in the middle of their work and ask them to guide me.

Looking at it from Torr and Asmo’s perspective, just being able to sneak away from such tough work is already something to celebrate, guess I should hang out with them more as a friend.

I already got the cover for the slimes from Tori, so I just have to stuff them inside.

It’s going to be fine to return by the evening.

And as Asmo said, it’s not a bad idea to cool ourselves down in the river.

I’ve been using only Ice magic to cool off recently, so I wanted to enjoy cooling myself using the blessing of nature a bit.

It would be great to put your feet into the cold water, gradually being liberated from scorching sunlight.

Just when I’m walking while imagining myself doing that in the river, Torr - who is next to me - said with a face as if he’s about to die,

「……hey, Al. Use your Ice magic. It’s simply so hot」

「I want to feel a coolness right now」

Asmo hoarsely said with the same expression on his face.

Sweats are already streaming down their bodies, and the color of their short-sleeved shirts had become darker in color.

「……er, I know how you feel but, we’re going to cool off in the river right, so let’s be patient」

「What the heck! It’s hot right now, so it’s fine if you use it now right! You said that even though you’ve always been using it while going outside these days!」

「Noー, we can’t use it now. If we enjoy the cold air of Ice magic now, then the joy of cooling ourselves in the river will feel disappointing as a result」

Though Torr and Asmo told me that in a desperate manner, I shook my head and reject their plea.

I’m already in the mood of cooling off and relaxing in the river. I don’t feel like using Ice magic now.

Rather, I don’t think that they won’t care about going to the river anymore if I were to use Ice magic now.

「Al is really fixated on the strangest place, aren’t you」

Fixated, huh? Though I’m aware that I’m a fairly moody person.

「Pleaseー. Just a little bit is fine, please use Ice magicー. If this continues, we’ll dry up before reaching the river」

「I’m gonna die at this rate」

As I was walking while thinking about that kind of thing, Torr and Asmo leaned on my body.

The mental damage I received from these dirty guys’ temperature and the scorching heat from the sunlight is dreadful.

The two of them are heavy and since the three of us are crowding together, the temperature also rose.

Actually, I’m not good with heat so I want to quickly use Ice magic like what these two asked, and I can’t resist the self-destructing attack from these two.

「Ahー! Mou! Ice! It’s just ice, so I’ll make it, stay away from me!」

After I shouted so, I made Ice using Ice magic and shove it into Torr and Asmo’s back.

「「Uwaaaaa!」」

「「「It’s the river!」」」

So we shouted after we reached the usual river while being drenched in sweat.

In the end, I compromise and use magic to actually use the primitive method to cool ourselves and overcome the rugged path here by holding ice inside our mouths and hands.

There’s the tragedy of dropping the ice when we fight for them on the way, but we manage to safely finish our journey here without anyone missing.

We were showered with the scorching hot sunlight during our hike, so we rushed at full speed toward the river to cool our hot and burnt bodies down.

And after I took off my shoes, I take a plunge into the river with my clothes on, as if thinking that it was troublesome and it will take too long.

And when I enter the water, it was as if the previous heat and unpleasant sweat that was tormenting me until a while ago were nothing more than a lie. And in exchange for those are the extremely refreshing feeling I felt in my whole body. It felt like the heat from my burnt body and the drops of ball-like sweat on my skin were immediately washed away.

I saw Torr and Asmo jumping into the water with splashing sounds - one after another -when I opened my eyes while in the water.

The both of them look so happy.

It became difficult for me to hold my breath underwater as I checked on the two’s state, so I went to the surface to breathe for a moment.

「Puhaaa! It feels good!」

I shouted after taking a deep breath.

「Uhahaha! I coming back alive!」

「This is paradise」

Then Torr and Asmo also shouted after me.

Torr and Asmo washed their faces several times and appears to be enjoying the coldness of the water.

After combing up my hair that had gotten wet, I float on the water just like that - as if entrusting my body to the flow of the river.

The water that wraps my whole body feels so pleasant.

The flowing water is cold, and it cools off our hot bodies thoroughly.

I’m glad I endured the heat and didn’t cast the cold air of the Ice magic. I’m sure that if I were to enjoy the cold air on the way, then I probably wouldn’t feel so refreshed like now.

「Ahahaha! Al look even duller when he combs up his bangs!」

「I’ve seen dead fishes floating on the water like that」

Just when I floating on the water like that, Torr and Asmo pointed at me and made such rude remarks.

Kuuh, I knew that my forehead is wide and I would look like this ever since I was little.

But, it makes me mad when you pointed it out like that.

Or rather Asmo, please stop treating me like a dead fish.

「You too Torr, Asmo, you look like a kid when you lowered your bangs. You both look cute that way, so why don’t you always lower your bangs like that?」

When I pointed that out while grinning at them, they hurriedly messed up their bangs with their hands.

They probably thought that they will be able to somehow cover it up if they mess their hair like that, huh? Though they hardly change anything.

「「Kuuh!」」

And they reluctantly stopped what they were doing while making bitter faces, maybe they also understand it after looking at their own reflection on the water surface. It appears that they have given up.

「Kukuku――kupe!?」

Water suddenly flew toward my face as I laughed while looking at those two’s appearance.

「Hahahahaha! Serves you right!」

「'Kupe' he said!?」

When I look in front after wiping the water that blocks my vision, I saw Torr and Asmo holding their stomach while laughing.

「……hooh? So you have the courage to challenge me into a splashing-water match, eh?」

「Hee, Al is not that great anyway! We have two people here, and we’re taller! You’re the one at a disadvantage, aren’t you!?」

「My hands are big, and I’m confident that I can splash a lot of water at you」

Torr and Asmo laughed fearlessly while making gestures with both of their hands.

Certainly, looking at it with common sense, it’s a situation of two versus one. What’s more, Asmo’s body is bigger than mine, and his palms are also big so it’s quite disadvantageous for me.

However, this is a world with magic. So I can deal with that one way or another.

「Fuun, did you all forget that there’s a solid difference between us? I can use water magic. In, other, words! I can manipulate a large quantity of water in this place at will! The amount of water I can throw at you is not like the amount you can send to me with your small hands!」

Then I cast Water magic in order to make them understand what I said.

Immediately after, the calm water surface of the river suddenly started to surge.

Then it became a current of water, following and coiling itself around me.

「O, oi! Using magic is dirty you know!?」

「That’s childish!」

「Don’t you think it was dirty of you to challenge me in a two versus one match?」

「「………………」」

And as expected, I guess they can’t even reply to my remark that Torr and Asmo are standing stock still in silence.

「Now then, I’m starting, all right?」

「「Wa, wait wait waitー! Kupee!?」」

So I said, I hurl the water current toward Torr and Asmo as they were quickly swallowed by it.
