Chapter 492 Examination of Research
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
(Kazumi’s POV)
”So, what do you think, Rena?”
”Yeah. There are various points for improvement, but… I think it’s fine to go for it.”
Rena and I were looking at the “small doll” standing on the table.
The researcher Charlotte, who came to visit Ms. Sasha, had slumped over the table after a brief presentation.
It seemed she was exhausted from the long journey from the Royal Capital.
She had been taken by Ms. Sasha and Ms. Shinobu to a guest room on the third floor a little while ago.
”The duration and… the amount of ‘lotion’ needed to form the body. I think this is a point for improvement.”
”She mentioned she was struggling with that improvement too. But if it lasts for 2 hours… I think it’s sufficient for use.”
While Rena and I were talking, the golem formed from the lotion slowly began to collapse… leaving only a gooey lotion and a small, dull ‘artificial magic core’ on the table.
They said the prototype wouldn’t last even 30 minutes.
”Maybe if the golem’s size is life-sized… and we increase the options for action, it would last even shorter. I don’t think it can last 2 hours. ──I do have some ideas for improvements in that area…”
”And then… the amount of lotion.”
With one bottle, about 250ml, for a size of around 50cm, how much would be needed to make it life-sized?
”In any case, it’s not a bad idea. I think it’s worth researching.”
Since Rena said that, there’s no doubt about it.
”I see. ──I’m starting to feel excited.”
Rena and I decided to clean up the table and return to the rooftop party.

(Charlotte’s POV)
When I woke up, I saw an unfamiliar ceiling.
And a fluffy bed and comforter.
(I’m…)
With gradually clarifying thoughts, I grasped the current situation.
I had reached my limit during the presentation to Ms. Sasha and the head of the merchant guild because of the fatigue from my travels.
I remember being guided to a room in this mansion, supported by Sasha, the head of the merchant guild, and her attendant, Ms. Shinobu, before lying down.
”Are you okay?”
Peering at me from beside the bed was…
”Sasha, head of the merchant guild,!? ── I-I’m sorry!”
I hurriedly sat up in bed.
”It was a long journey, wasn’t it? You must be tired?”
Looking at the magic tool clock on the side table, it was just past 9 PM.
I must have slept for about an hour.
”You could sleep until morning, but… there is a quick way to heal your fatigue.”
Ms. Shinobu called out from behind Sasha, the head of the merchant guild.
In her hand was… a large towel?
”I’ll prepare a nightgown, so could you just get your change of underwear, Ms. Charlotte?”
It seemed they were going to guide me to the bath.
(I want to just sleep and rest my body…)
Even thinking that, I nodded to Ms. Sasha and rummaged through the backpack placed beside the bed to get my underwear.

(To think I can bathe in ‘Raetia’s Hot Springs’ in this mansion…!)
The bathroom I was guided to was surprisingly large.
Even though it was a big mansion, I didn’t expect such a bath.
And the water in the tub was… the famous ‘Raetia’s Hot Springs.’
(And to think that girl was Lady Kazumi Müller, rumored to be the ‘Wise One.’)
The ‘hot spring’ that sparked the development of Raetia.
I had heard rumors about the girl who revitalized the village using it.
Because of her achievements, it seems this mansion has special access to ‘Raetia’s Hot Springs’ from the source.
(And the effects are just as rumored…)
As I sank into the tub, I felt my fatigue gradually melting away.
Not only for fatigue healing, but I also heard it has beauty benefits and can help with wounds.
Ms. Kazumi came up with that idea, and it was developed by the other girl known as ‘Genius Saint’, Lady Rena Rosen, who created that ‘adult magic tool’.
(If those people offer their support… the practical use of the ‘love doll’ isn’t just a dream…)
It was a presentation that ended halfway, but their reactions, along with those of the head of the merchant guild, Sasha, weren’t bad.
The name ‘love doll’ was also given by Ms. Kazumi.
(Tomorrow… I want to talk to them again and hear technical opinions from Ms. Kazumi and Ms. Rena.)
I stepped out of the bathtub, my body completely refreshed.
* * *
(The beauty skin effect is real…)
I put on the underwear prepared in the changing room and glanced at myself in the mirror.
My frail body is still the same, but my skin looks glossy.
My messy hair seems to have gained some shine and is sparkling.
(The shampoo must have been good…)
Then, I put on the nightgown that had been prepared for me.
It was a lovely one-piece dress made of a very nice fabric.
It’s undoubtedly a luxury item.
As expected of the ‘Famière’, rumored to be the best clan in Raetia.
Each of these items is of high quality.
”Dear guest, I’ll guide you to your room, so please take your time and rest tonight,” said the cute beastfolk maid in a black uniform.
She was waiting at the entrance of the bathing area.
Following her, I experienced a sense of luxury I had never felt before.

(Hiroya’s POV)
”H-Hello, Mr. Hiroya… My team is going to dive into the ‘Great Labyrinth Raetia’ starting tomorrow.”
Perhaps a bit tipsy, Laura spoke to me with a hint of red on her face.
Come to think of it, there was also the situation with Frieda and Goliath, and the ‘Grand Market’ made the Great Labyrinth temporarily closed.
”There were more people coming to Raetia than expected. Us adventurers were also called out for security.”
If it’s true, Laura’s team was supposed to set out for exploration before the Grand Market.
”So… um…”
Laura looks like she wants to say something.
She holds the glass of alcohol on the table with both hands, her fingers nervously stroking the glass.
”I’m… Mr. Hiroya’s ‘mistress,’ not his ‘girlfriend,’ so I know I’m not in a position to ask… but…”
Yeah.
I think I understand what she’s trying to say.
”Laura… should we step out for a bit?”
When Hiroya’s presence makes my desires run wild, I end up calling Laura to be my outlet.
She’s recognized as my ‘mistress’ among lovers.
Sometimes, I need to show her affection and care.
”──!?”
At the whisper near her ear, Laura blinks in surprise.
Perhaps she understood the meaning, as her face turns bright red.
”Then… I’ll go ahead and wait.”
”I-I’ll be in the room right away!”
I thought about saying something to Kazumi, but I can’t see her.
With no other choice, I just gave Laura a glance and headed to my room.
