49.

“Then shall we wash?”

Richt opened the door and looked outside. The living room was still empty.

“jin?”

I called Jin, but there was no answer. It looks like he hasn’t returned yet.

‘Then who carries the water?’

This was a village of slash-and-burn farmers, so there was no running water, which only the houses that lived in the city to a certain extent had. For that reason, in order to take a bath, you filled a water jar and then washed with the water. Richt was not confident that he could fill the bucket. It was obvious that if I tried to carry water with such a weak body, I would get sick. Still, half of them want to wash, so I have to wash.

Richt rolled up his sleeves. Wouldn’t something work if I carry it little by little several times? It was because I thought about it.

“I will fill the water.”

Ban’s voice came from behind Licht. The breath tickling the back of her neck gave me goosebumps. Without realizing it, my hand went up to my neck. He touched his skin a few times for no reason and said it as if it were a bruise.

“You are a patient.”

“It’s not that difficult.”

Ban said that and walked forward. The washing area at the congressman’s house was outside. Since it was still raining, I ran using a basket made of grass that was lying in a corner.

The space used as a bathroom was small. There was a large water jar in the corner, half full of water. It seemed like there was enough water for one person to wash, but the water was too cold.

“The water is too cold.”

“it’s okay. “I usually wash it in cold water.”

Richt’s heart tingled at those words. He was a knight in name, but he was the reason he lived a life worse than that of a commoner. He was actually Licht before, but he is Licht now.

“Wait a minute, wait a minute.”

Richt ran back home. Then he moved quickly and boiled water in a pot. He started out, hoping to wash in a little warmer water, but he didn’t want the water to boil quickly enough. I thought about adding more fire to my nervousness, but something felt strange.

The wind spirits that had been hanging around nearby were nowhere to be seen.

‘Did you go out to have fun for a while?’

He was usually very attached to Richt, but after he kicked him out, he disappeared for a while. And by the time she returned, she was full of things to ingratiate herself with him.

Sometimes it was fruit from a tree, sometimes it was a fallen bird feather, or a shiny pebble. So even though I couldn’t see the wind spirit, I didn’t suspect it. I guess I just got into the habit of looking for gifts and went out again.

When the water boiled, Richt wrapped a cloth over the pot, grabbed the pot, and carefully headed to the outside bathroom. Ban waited patiently and took the pot from her.

“It’s dangerous.”

“are you okay. “I was careful.”

Richt waved his hands and had the hot water from the pot poured into the basin. As soon as the boiling water went in, the coldness went away. He wanted to boil more water, but since it took quite a while, he decided to wash it like this.

“Can you wash by yourself?”

I asked out of concern, and Ban slowly shook his head.

“It seems difficult.”

It seemed like Richt should help. Let’s see, we’ll have to take off our clothes to wash first. Richt approached Van and untied the straps of his jacket. Because he was a patient, he was dressed in clothes that were easy to remove, so his upper body was immediately exposed.

It’s a body I’ve already seen, but it feels strange. Richt listened to the sound of falling rain and helped Ban take off his pants. The sky was cloudy, and the bathroom window was small, so there was little light coming through. Nevertheless, Van’s naked body caught Richt’s eyes.

Richt lowered his eyes for a moment.

‘It’s the same man’s body. ‘Same man.’

Only after muttering several times was I able to calm my agitation.

“Let’s sit here for now.”

Ban sat quietly on a low chair. To be honest, I have never washed someone else’s body. She was an only child and never married. Still, it was Licht who cleaned her body when she was half sick.

Although the wound has healed a lot, it’s not good for water to get into it. It seemed like all I had to do was wash it carefully. First, I wet a cotton cloth I found in the bathroom and added powder used as a soap substitute to it.

Before applying the cotton cloth, I tried putting my finger on it. I looked at the hollow wound. Among them was a wound that Richt had treated at the imperial palace. I didn’t want to inflict any more wounds on Ban’s body anymore.

‘really?’

really. It’s true that I’ve had strange desires, but I shouldn’t actually do them. A bitter feeling passed across Richt’s lips for a moment.

Richt pretended nothing was wrong and rubbed Van’s back with a cotton cloth.

Half of them were stern. He was the one who jumped into battle without a care in the face of even more serious wounds. So this much is bearable. He could even wash himself. However, he didn’t say it out loud.

I thought being weak was a sin, so I had to become stronger. Right now, I wanted to appear weak to Richt. Because he wanted him to be taken care of.

The hand rubbing my back with a cotton cloth is gentle. There were times when I stopped and moved more cautiously, and it seemed like I did this when I saw a big wound. I like those feather-like hand movements. Thoughts that shouldn’t have crossed her mind.

I want to turn around, embrace him, and explore him deep inside. The deeply hidden desire grew bigger and bigger, and it felt like it was going to burst out of my body. What will you do when you can’t stand it anymore?

Ban gently tightened his chin.

‘We must not forget grace.’

The former Duke asked Van for his child, Richt. And Ban swore to keep his will. So I shouldn’t have revealed this desire. Because if you do it wrong, you could hurt Richt. Like a gentle animal, you should move little by little, just enough so that he doesn’t get scared.

“good. “I’ve done everything.”

Richt lightly slapped me on the back and then tapped my shoulder. It seemed like it meant turning around.

“… … “I will take the lead.”

Richt hesitated for a moment at Van’s words and then handed him the cotton cloth.

“Then should I go out and wait?”

“Isn’t it cold outside?”

“yes. “It’s cold.”

Richt smiled awkwardly and leaned against the wall. Van slowly washed her body away. Because I wanted more time just the two of us. She spent twice as much time washing herself as usual.

When the class finished washing and stood up, Richt came over holding a towel. He wipes his wet body and puts a towel on his head.

“Lean down a little.”

As he was commanded, he bent down, grabbed the towel with both hands, and cut off Ban’s head. In the process, our eyes met. I looked into her pretty eyes and slowly lowered my eyelids, when lips touched her. Richt lightly pressed his lips to his cheek and smiled shyly.

‘I can’t do it.’

I couldn’t suppress my desire any longer. Van reached out his hand and rubbed Richt’s cheek. His eyes widened as if he was surprised. Van covered his lips with hers. As I licked her closed lips greedily, they soon opened like ripe fruit.

In fact, half of us don’t know anything.

While swinging a sword since I was young, I met many people. He also knew how people shared their bodies. Is there anything special? They kiss their lips, grope their bodies, and put them in holes. Still, I acted like an innocent person in front of Richt.

Well, I’ve never actually tried it.

Van kissed Richt deeply. He drank up all of her saliva, licked and prodded her insides, deep inside her. As we part our lips for a moment, Richt is out of breath.

“You, you!”

Richt gives a suspicious look.

“You taught me.”

Even if I release my desires, wouldn’t it be okay as long as I don’t destroy Licht? He was the one who touched it first. His mind, which he thought would never change, began to change. I am influenced by the greed I first had.

Richt, who was looking at me with a bewildered expression, laughed a little.

“Yes, I taught it.”

Then he lightly kissed Ban again.

“But you still need to breathe.”

Is it okay to breathe through your nose? Van thought that Dumbin Richt might know more than he did. So how can he teach me? While I was thinking that, a strong wind suddenly blew in through the bathroom window.

Both heads turned to the window at the same time.

[We’re in big trouble!]

The wind spirit that jumped in through the bathroom window shouted.

“What’s going on?”

The moment the spirit opened his mouth again in response to Richt’s question, something grabbed him. It happened so quickly that Richt saw nothing.

“government ordinance?”

I called out, but the spirit did not answer. All I could hear was the sound of rain. What can close the mouth of a spirit and drag it away? A spirit like magic. It was a time when wizards and elementalists were rare, but there was one elementalist I knew.

‘Lauren.’

Abel’s assistant. His heart sank. Did they catch you here?

“Get dressed!”

Perhaps because they sensed something unusual, the class moved quickly. She got dressed and, with Licht in her arms, she ran straight into the congressman’s house. Because she had a weapon there.
