Chapter 75: Let’s Buy A House



Chapter 75: Let’s Buy A House

「I think we have to buy a house.」

The next morning, Aria suddenly made such a declaration in a certain room that she rented while hugging Tama.

Lily, Faeri, and Stella were surprised by Aria’s declaration.

「I mean, don’t you think that we need a wider place now that Lily-chan and Faeri-chan are living with us? Let’s buy or rent a big enough house so that everyone can feel at ease.」

Aria and co were currently living in a rented double room.

Lily and Faeri were enjoying their fluffy moments with Tama and using both Aria’s and Stella’s breasts as their pillows. But a single bed was too small to accommodate all of them.

That was the same for the others’ living space because four people and one animal made even a double room feel too narrow.

Most of all, since Lily and Faeri were always making merry, they ended up disturbing the ones who stayed beside Aria and co’s room.

Thus, Aria decided that it was time to rent a big house.

「I see. We’re gonna be changing beds, huh. Well, it doesn’t matter. A wider bed is far more suitable for Powerful one and me! 」

「Wider home? Does that mean we can play hide and seek with Tama? 」

「That’s wonderfullll! 」

The other three girls easily agreed to Aria’s proposal.

(Fumu… Me too. I mean, this place has become too small to accommodate all of us. Besides, master is already an A-rank adventurer. She should buy a residence befitting of her adventurer rank.)

For that reason, Tama also nodded to Aria to show his agreement.

「Fufufu, since Tama seems to agree with us, let’s go to the real-estate agency immediately! ?」

Thus, Aria led everyone out of the inn while caressing Tama’s head.

「Welcome!――Eh, Aria-sama?! 」

「―― EH? Y… Yes?」

As they walked into the real-estate agency, located in a corner of the commercial district, the girl employee spoke in a hysterical voice as soon as she saw Aria.

The girl hurried to explain her reaction.

「P-Please excuse my rudeness! I never expected that an A-rank adventurer will come to visit our store in person…」

Aria herself was still unaware of it, but rank “A” was only bestowed to an adventurer befitting of a brave or Hero.

The news about the birth of a new A-rank adventurer became the most trending topic in Labyrinth City.

It was only natural for the employee girl to show that kind of reaction when the rumored person visited the store herself.

「Today, I came looking for a nice house to live in. May I ask for your help to introduce a good house for us? 」

「W-With pleasure, Aria-sama! May I ask your requirements for the house? 」

「A house with a big bed will be good! 」

「Yes! That way, everyone can sleep together in the same bed after all! 」

「I agreee~! 」

「I see… A big bed. Any other requirements?」

「Let’s see… If possible, a house that has a bathroom. We want to enjoy a long and comfortable bath in our own house, after all… Right, Tama? 」

「Nya~n! (Yes, master!)」

Tama agreed to Aria’s suggestion.

Of course, there was a public bathhouse in the city, but it used cold water instead of warm water.

Moreover, it was under poor management. They repeatedly lost their customers’ articles and had even a peeping tom.

Tama couldn’t let other men see the bare figure of his master.

[Note: And yet bikini armor is allowed, what kind of double standard is this?]

He absolutely wouldn’t allow any of his master’s underwear to be stolen and used for something outrageous like mXXXXXXXtion.

「I’ve received the order. Let’s see… We might have just the right house for you. I can guide you to the place if you allow me to do so, bu-…」

「With pleasure! ?」

「I’ve received the order. Please follow me this way! 」

Aria and co followed the employee girl toward the house.

「Here’s the house you’re looking for! 」

After swaying around in a gondola for around ten minutes, they finally arrived at the house.

It was within walking distance, only a few minutes away from the gondola’s port.

「It’s a house with two floors and a garden! 」

Aria’s eyes shone as soon as she saw the house.

It was a simple wooden house with two floors.

「Since the interior is equally beautiful, please take a look at the inside of the house, too.」

After saying so, the employee girl opened the door to the entranceway. Sure enough, the inside was as neat as the employee girl had said. There was even a dedicated space for their shoes.

Beyond the entrance, there was a kitchen.

「Yes, the interior is wonderful indeed. It even has an eat-in kitchen! ?」

「The kitchen fuel is firewood but you can switch it into 〝Magic Burner? mode if you want.」

「I see… That’s convenient indeed…」

Aria was pondering about the employee girl’s words for a while as she touched her finger to her lips.

Magic Burner was the name of a magic tool appliance that could produce fire by accumulating mana inside of its core.

The price for the best kind of it with maximum mana capacity was around one gold coin.

In Labyrinth City, the living cost for a general household consisting of a parent with two children was around two gold coins per month.

It would be rather pricey but still far cheaper to buy a magic burner in the long run if one were to consider the cost for firewood.

「C’mon, I want to see the bedroom already!」

「Me too~! 」

Lily and Faeri pulled on the skirt of the employee girl, who then led the two fairies farther inside, seemingly amused by their action.

「Following this way, you’ll find that there are two bedrooms on the 2nd floor. One of the rooms is wide enough to stuff in two double beds. The other room is a single person room. Here you go, please take a look at the room.」

「OOH! The room is huge enough for everyone to sleep together! 」

「Now everyone can sleep together as they fluff Tama!」

「Can squeeze Aria-san’s and Stella-san’s boobs as much as I want to~!」

Stella, Lily, and Faeri started to make merry as soon as they saw the interior of the big room. They were acting like little children.

(Hou, the other room is nice, too. I’ll use that single room once in a while when I want to sleep by myself.)

Tama was quite satisfied with the big room. He started thinking about the single room when Aria suddenly hugged him.

「Tama, could it be that you’re thinking about sleeping by yourself in the single room? Have you forgotten already, Tama? Your sleeping place is in between this oneechan’s boobies ?. 」

(Uh, my dear master. Why do I feel that lately… You treat me more and more like a baby?)

Tama couldn’t help but feel that way since Aria pampered him just like a mother pampering her baby.

In fact, the more Tama protected Aria like her knight and healed her gloomy heart with his cuteness, the more Aria loved him.

Her affection materialized in her excessive way of pampering Tama and it was boosted by the appearance of a rival called Stella.

「Uhhm… Tama-chan is so cuute. It’s hard to believe that he stood by Aria-sama’s side in your fight against a dragon.」

「Fufufu. As you can see, Tama is the most powerful among us~?. He saved us so many times from danger…」

Aria was smiling affectionately as she brushed Tama’s head, seeing the employee girl’s admiration toward Tama’s cuteness.

Shutting his eyes, Tama was completely immersed in enjoying Aria’s soft hand and nice smell.

「GUNUNUNU! So sly, Aria is flirting with Tama again!」

Stella was in a bad mood seeing Aria flirting with Tama. She gritted her teeth, both hands clenched tightly in front of her twin melons.

「Well, then, allow me to guide you to the bathroom.」

After returning to the first floor, they were guided to the other facilities in the house, like the toilet, and finally, the bath.

There was another entrance built on the back of the house which was used to enter the backyard. After passing through that entrance, they arrived in the slightly big open-air bath.

「This is… An open-air bath, right?」

「Yes, this house originally wasn’t equipped with a bathing room, the previous residents added it. The water will come out once you twist the faucet. You can also heat the water with a magic burner, or firewood like in the kitchen.」

[Note: In case you’re wondering who in the world is the previous owner of the residence, it’s the protagonist of the author’s previous work, a shota black magician and his slave, the sword saintess who saved Aria.]

Even though the bathroom was just the extension built by the previous tenants, it was obviously made of high-quality material. It wouldn’t lose in comparison to the bathroom of the inn they were currently staying at. Or perhaps not, because this bathroom had more ornaments in it.

(Fufufu, what a nice backyard garden. I also have no need to worry about those sh*tty peeping toms since we’re away from the center of the city.)

Despite admiring the structure of the open-air bath, Tama didn’t forget to check the security of the surrounding area.

「Aria, I like this house!」

「This place is good! Now everyone can enter the bathtub together!」

「Same here~! Everyone enjoying the bath togethe~r!」

All of them, Aria, Stella, Lily and Faeri’s eyes were sparkling so brightly in seeing such a high-quality bath.

「Fufufu… I also agree with you girls. May I ask for the price and requirement for this house?」

「I can prepare the contract immediately as long as you dear customer paid the advance payment equal to half-year worth of rent.」

「Understood. Everyone, this place is our new home~! ?」

「YAAAAAAY! 」

「Ya~y! A new house!」

「Now I can fluff everyone as much as I want!」

Thus, the dragon girl, the pixie girl, and the dryad girl were merrily celebrating their new house.

The rent cost for one month was a little bit more expensive than before, but their living conditions would also be better than before.

And most of all, Aria was an A-rank adventurer. Her savings couldn’t be compared to other run-of-the-mill adventurers.

It wouldn’t be a problem even if she splurged a bit.

「Fufufu. Now that we have secured a new home, you better prepare yourself, Tama. We’re going to do a LOT of 〝NyanNyan?? !」

「Nyaa!?」

Aria kissed Tama’s forehead while looking at Stella and co, who were frolicking among themselves, from the corner of her eyes.

Tama had a completely surprised look on his face.

Aria put the still dumbfounded Tama in her soft embrace, right in between her twin melons with a flushing red face.
