Only My Dungeon Equipment Levels Up! (SSS-Rank Weapons)

The delicious BBQ ended, and our stomachs were full. Next, we needed to clean ourselves by taking a bath.

“Alright, I’ll clean up the BBQ grill.”

“Got it! Then, Misuzu, Reina, can you help with the cleaning?”

“Roger!”

“Understood.”

Leaving Kenya behind, the three went back to the room to clean the dishes and other items.

“Misuzu, Nana, I have something to discuss.”

“Hmm? “What is it?”

“Just now, Kenya said he wants to take a bath in the outdoor bath with everyone…”

“Seriously?”

“Really!?”

(I haven’t done this since elementary school… Well, that outdoor bath is so huge that I think it’s fine for four people…)

“Yes, he seemed very happy when I said I was okay with it.”

“Senior is aiming for a harem!? Is this a case of ‘heroes liking colors’!?”

“No way! I’m a high school student, okay? I don’t have a sister who would bathe with her brother!”

“You agreed to many selfish requests today, though?”

“Ugh…”

Nana also felt a little guilty for buying too much, which pushed her to agree.

“Well, I’ve been pampered today, so I guess it’s okay to at least wash his back…”

Reluctantly, Nana also agreed.

Everyone, though surprised, accepted the proposal. The younger sister, as family and a younger sister, due to a little guilt. Misuzu, due to her personality, as a reward for herself. Reina, with clear affection for Kenya, wanted to serve him despite feeling embarrassed.

Reina already knew. This feeling towards Kenya must be love.

Originally, she should have naturally realized this emotion at a younger age.

So, she wasn’t sure if this was love, but…

(I want to be with Kenya and touch him… Maybe this is what love feels like?)

Even if unsure, she somehow knew. That she must be in love with him. But she also knew that being rejected after confessing would hurt so much that she might not be able to live.

She feared losing this comfortable and warm family. So, for now, she kept it hidden.

Of course, there would be times when words slip out like today.

Dreaming of the day Kenya would ask for her, Reina kept her faint first love hidden.

“I’ve cleaned up the grill! So, let’s discuss. Everyone wants to use the outdoor bath, right? Can I go in?”

“Senior, you’re serious, right?” “Big brother… you want to go in, right?”

“I’ve already conveyed Kenya’s feelings.”

(Despite that, both of them seem to have made some sort of resolve… It’s just an outdoor bath, you know?)

“U-um. Do you two not want to go in?”

“I’m okay with going in! “I also want to, at least today…”

Even though she felt it was somewhat mismatched, she couldn’t resist the allure of the outdoor bath. She filled the tub with water, got changed, and headed to the indoor bath.

She washed her body in the indoor bath and opened the door leading to the outdoor bath.

“Alright, I’m going in first.”

Kenya went to the bath. The remaining three looked at each other and nodded.

Let’s start the bath meeting (service meeting).

“Whoa!? This shampoo smells amazing. And… this is the conditioner.”

Kenya, who changed and went into the bath, was surprised to find the shampoo and conditioner separated. It was his first experience, having always used shampoo with conditioner in it, which made his hair coarse.

“It’s amazing… so smooth… My wild dog-like hair has become smooth…”

He washed his body and removed all the dirt. All the insect extracts were gone, and his body was clean.

“Well then, it’s finally time…”

When he opened the door, he saw the sea, a huge tower, and the stars shining in the night sky. It was already past 9 PM. The big moon was out, and it would have been perfect if it was as cold as winter, but he couldn’t ask for too much.

And then…

“Aah, ahh♥”

He couldn’t help but let out a strange sound.

For Kenya, who usually used only a shower, a bath was a rare experience. Moreover, with the large bath that felt like a hot spring and the beautiful scenery, and his stomach full, it was safe to say it was the best.

“I’m slowly realizing… this is my home.”

From a small ten-tatami room to a luxurious apartment, a celebrity lifestyle. Though he still wasn’t using money perfectly, he had already been freed from a life worried about finances.

“At first, I was confused, but I’m glad I bought it. Everyone is happy too. Ah, I’m starting to feel sleepy.”

Kenya, drowsy in the warm bath, closed his eyes and dozed off. Floating gently on the swaying waves, he felt so good that he closed his eyes.

…

Click.

Then, he woke up to the sound of the door opening.

“Huh?”
