“I-Is it that noticeable?”
“…Hmm? I don’t really mind.”
Mashiro sniffed the air in defense, but the one who had pointed it out first—Celishia—quickly countered.
“It’s just a little, so Leiche-san might not have noticed yet.”
“…Tch.”
“Alice, I’m going to wash up immediately.”
If Celishia said something like “Ew, sweaty Onii-sama~”, my heart would shatter on the spot.
Just as Celishia was my beloved little sister, I had to remain the admirable older brother she looked up to.
“Oh~? Go ahead, boy. I’ll keep working here, so come back once you’re fresh.”
“Got it. Celishia, since this’ll take a while, why don’t you head back to the mansion?”
“Yes! There’s so much I want to talk to Onii-sama about, so I’ll prepare some tea! And—”
Celishia smiled sweetly before taking Mashiro’s hand.
“While we wait for Onii-sama, I’d love to chat with Leiche-san and the others. After all, you’re all going to be Onii-sama’s wives—I want to get to know you properly!”
“C-Celishia-san…! P-Please take care of me!”
Mashiro nodded eagerly, touched by Celishia’s proactive kindness.
Kukuku… Looks like they’re already building a healthy relationship. I’m relieved.
“So, Alice. Please take good care of Onii-sama.”
“Understood, Celishia-sama.”
“I trust Alice completely. Even if the bath takes a little longer, it’s fine. Don’t worry about us—just focus on scrubbing Onii-sama clean.”
W-Wait… Did I really smell that bad?
They say you can’t detect your own scent.
For the sake of being a cool older brother… I’ll bathe with full dedication!
“Mashiro, take care of Celishia while I’m gone.”
“Got it! Leave it to me!”
“Take care, Ouga Onii-sama. See you soon.”
With my beloved little sister seeing me off, Alice led me toward the grand bath.
“…Now then, Leiche-san.”
“I’d really like to meet the other candidates to be Onii-sama’s wives…”
“Would you mind calling them over for me?”
Determined not to earn the title of “Stinky Onii-sama”, I quickened my pace toward the bath.
I could never let Celishia dislike me.
In my past life, guys with sisters always said, “Having a little sister is just annoying,” but that was probably just their way of hiding their embarrassment.
I’ve never once found Celishia bothersome.
I’m fully aware that I’m deep in the “siscon swamp”, but our father and mother both have strong family values—maybe it’s just a trait of our bloodline.
“Alice!”
“Understood.”
I’d arrived at the bath still wearing the [True Dragon Slaying Fist] gauntlet, but with only one arm, I couldn’t undress properly.
Celishia must’ve anticipated this, which is why she told Alice to accompany me.
That’s my little sister for you—always sharp.
“Then, Ouga-sama, pardon me.”
Just from my call, Alice understood everything and immediately reached for my coat.
She’d helped me change at the academy too, so her movements were smooth.
In no time, she had my coat and undershirt off before kneeling down.
“…………”
But then, as I watched Alice unbuckle my belt with click-clack sounds… my mind wandered into dangerous territory.
No, no! Just because my proposal succeeded doesn’t mean I should let my urges win like some ape!
“Alice, I can handle the rest myself.”
“…Understood. Then, please use this.”
She handed me a towel, which I wrapped around my waist before removing my pants—careful to keep things modest.
Now fully naked, I opened the bath door and sat on the stool.
“Ali—”
“Is something the matter, Ouga-sama?”
“Huh? Wait… What’s with that… outfit…?”
Standing behind me, Alice was now wrapped in nothing but a bath towel.
Weird. When I was little, the servants who washed me always kept their maid uniforms on.
“Ah, so she stay in uniform…?”—I remember being disappointed back then.
That memory was so vivid that I’d just assumed Alice would assist me in her maid outfit…
“I couldn’t possibly dirty the clothes Ouga-sama gave me… So, I determined this would be more appropriate.”
…Right. That’s just how Alice is.
As a result, her current state was just a single bath towel—practically her birthday suit.
Since she’d removed her chest bindings, her ample bust was now fully free.
This sight was poison to my eyes.
Or rather… were my eyes the problem? They kept drifting toward her chest.
“With only one hand, washing will be difficult. Allow me to assist.”
Holding a sponge already lathered with soap, she was fully prepared.
……At this point, telling her to change back would be pointless.
Besides, Alice was clearly in maid mode right now.
If she were in lover mode, she’d be blushing so hard she’d faint.
Since she was devoting herself to serving her master, I had to respond sincerely.
Turning my back to her, I let out a long sigh.
“…Thanks. I’ll leave it to you, Alice.”
“Then, first, I’ll pour some warm water over you.”
She gently poured water from the bucket over my shoulders, letting my body adjust to the temperature.
Then, she pressed the sponge against my back and began moving it slowly.

“Ouga-sama, is the pressure alright?”
“Yeah. Feels good.”
“Then, I’ll continue.”
“Then, I will continue to do so.”
With perfect pressure, Alice performed her task flawlessly.
I had nothing to say—so the only sound was her faint breathing in the silent bath.
The problem? Those breaths sounded strangely alluring.
Even though Alice was just doing her job, my pink brain (MAX level) interpreted every exhale as something… lewd. Later, I should ask Yueri to make a magic tool to cleanse my mind…
(Side note: When I actually asked later, she just smiled gently and said, “You should rest today, boy. Need a lullaby if you can’t sleep?”)
Either way, staying silent was dangerous.
Silence meant my thoughts would spiral. I needed a distraction—so I blurted out the first thing that came to mind after glancing at my own body.
“Hey, Alice… When you wash yourself, where do you start?”
Looking at my unsoaped arm, I realized I always began with my arms… and the question just slipped out.
I deserved hell for this.
“……Eh!? M-Me!?”
Even Alice was flustered by the sudden, bizarre question.
Of course. That was full-on sexual harassment.
The only reason I wasn’t punched straight in the face was because of our current relationship.
I could still backtrack. Just apologize and pretend it never happened.
“…Ah, I usually start with my arms. I was just curious how others do it.”
—But I didn’t.
I kept going, playing it off as small talk rather than harassment.
When I turned to explain myself, I saw Alice’s red face—too adorable to resist.
Our eyes met, and she immediately looked away, but the tips of her ears were bright red. A 100/10 lovable reaction.
My heart is still a virgin (well, my body too) was grinning ear to ear. I had to fight hard not to smirk.
“Um, I am that… oh, how embarrassing……”
She hugged her breasts as if to hide her embarrassment.
With a soft squish, her figure distorted greatly, creating an even more provocative pose.
And that gesture expressed her answer more than anything else.
“……My breasts, it is. The sweat tends to accumulate there……”
“……I see.”
…………I see.
Her breasts!!!
Sweat accumulates there!!!!
“……Please continue. I need to finish bathing and return to Yueri as quickly as possible.”
“Y-yes! That’s right!”
I straightened my posture and urged her to continue as if nothing had happened, and Alice returned to washing my body.
[My breasts, it is]
[Breasts, it is……]
[OPPAI, it is…………]
However, Alice’s words kept repeating over and over in my mind.
By the time I finished indulging in foolish fantasies, she seemed to have finished washing my back, and Alice called out to me.
“O-Ouga-sama. Um… shall I wash your front as well?”
I’d like to say yes please, but right now the lower part of my abdomen is in a not-so-good state.
My thoughts finally returning to reality, I made a calm judgment.
Above all, I can’t endure this torturous state any longer.
“No, I’ll do the rest myself.”
“No, I will.”
“No, no, I willdo it myself. …………”
“……I see. Understood.”
I take the sponge from Alice.
Somehow I won a victory. A victory…… but why did Alice hesitate before finally handing it over?
Could it be…… Alice wanted to wash my front too?
[Ouga-sama…… let me clean every inch of your body……]
A foam-covered Alice approaching me……! It’s good……! Really good, but……!
Now is not the time to enjoy this happiness.
“That’s right, Alice, would you like to join Celishia and the others for their girls’ gathering?”
Right now, Celishia is probably having a pleasant tea party with Mashiro and the others.
Celishia is like an angel, and with kind people like Mashiro, Karen, and Reina, it must be such a soothing space that one would want to preserve it in a painting.
If there’s any tension between them, I’ll run naked around Rishburg Magic Academy while doing a handstand.
It would also be good for Alice to interact with Celishia in a different position from her usual maid role.
Perfect, I was nodding in satisfaction internally…… but my thoughts were easily shattered.
“In that case, I would prefer to return with Ouga-sama to Yueri-san.”
“……Huh? You don’t need to be considerate of me, you know?”
“No, that is my true feeling.”
“I-I see……. Your true feeling…… then, that’s fine.”
Somehow feeling more pressure than usual from Alice’s words, I found myself accepting before I knew it.
This means that my time spent with her in the public bath would inevitably continue—
“So, I’ll proceed to wash your hair now.”
—and the bell for round two of abstinence had rung.
