[Welcome back, second master, master. This playtime is quite ironic.]

The doors of both of the chariot capsules opened as the mechanical voice greeted the two of them.

"Shuddup Sunday." But it was instantly scolded by his master as she walked out of her Chariot and looked beside her… at him.

"You're one stubborn bastard, Elio."

The archer hall master was impressed by his archery, so much so that she offered to teach him a few things until they were there.

It was an amazing offer. That person knew much more about the bow and arrows than her, so even she wanted him to learn a little from her.

But he refused.

"Hmph. Bastard."

She looked at him for a while, mainly with a disgusted look, and then shook her head, and walked out of their gaming room.

"Alex."

He also walked out of the room while calling her name, but she was upset. She did not want to listen to this bastard anymore.

"Alex, wait a minute at least."

He was stubborn.

The two of them tried pursuing him, telling him how that was the game world and not the real world.

There was no need for him to be that stubborn when these two worlds were completely different places and when the whole subject of archery was a different thing there.

He was refusing to learn from her since he had already learned all that he wanted to learn about archery from his 'Teacher' and he knew his archery was mediocre compared to hers.

"Alex."

"What?! Do you want to continue the argument that the game and reality doesn't matter?! How the hell can you be so stubborn! Ughh!"

She walked in circles around their hallroom before going up to the fridge, taking out a bottle, and taking a sip from it.

"You did not want to learn archery from her then fine! Just tell her you don't want to and walk out of the place saying nothing will change your mind! Why sit there the entire time and then deny once again after hearing us out?!"

She handed him the water bottle when she had her fill, and he thanked her for that.

"I can't just walk out when you are trying so hard to convince me, dear. I at least needed to give you a chance… but you two couldn't change my mind.

I still think archery isn't for me. Perhaps you will have to try harder or take some different approach-."

"Shut up!"

He handed her the bottle back after kissing her, something she liked but did not want to at the moment, and she finished the bottle before throwing it in the recycle bin.

"You're unbelievable Elio."

She was frustrated, the AC was blasting all around the house and yet she was sweating bullets, so He suggested they should take a bath as he was also all sticky after all that gaming.

They had been in the chariot for almost three days now. It was almost the same time as his first run.

They had been traveling in the game all this while, and after taking a short break after that Mage tower master incident, but then they had finished their travel until they reached Yuta.

And now that they were in the city, they were going to have some real rest, some real food, and some real fighting.

Some real kissing, cuddling and f-... family time, perhaps. Or perhaps not.

"You really are a bastard, you know El?"

"Of course I know. I am a bastard. I am a dog, cat, monkey, dumbass, piece of shit as well. You can curse me all you want. I deserve that."

From his perspective, hearing some curses from her was better than actually getting into any arguments against her.

She was good when it came to debates since she was more knowledgeable than him and she used all of that to her advantage.

He had never won against her when it came to arguments or debates, so he had given up on it a long time ago.

In this reality, most of the things she says are correct and almost all of the facts that she states are eternal truths carved on the monoliths by the Sadhus themselves.

"Cold?"

"Put some ice in the bathtub as well. I need an ice bath… Do you know how bad I felt when Elara looked at me with that broken expression?!

How can you so bluntly reject her like that? Twice, at that!"

She was angry, she was frustrated, she was feeling bad, and she wanted to punch him. But she could not do that.

If she did punch him and he dodges, she might end up smashing a glass or breaking something around the bathroom.

Their bathroom was one of their most cherished places in this apartment so they had banned any kind of fighting in here.

There was a place for fighting, so they would deal with one another when they got there.

"Here's the ice. Step aside and place your clothes in the basket please.

Oh, and you look hot without them."

"Of course I do~. But… don't change the subject!"

They had a big bathtub that both of them loved so, while he filled it with the ice water, she prepared their bath essentials.

There was a big mirror on one of the walls of the big bathroom, so she looked at herself with a pleased expression…

"Yup. Definitely hot."

…but when he stood beside her, in the same 'state' as her, a blush popped up on her pretty face.

"H-hey. Don't sneak up on me like that!"

The bathtub was full, the water was ready, the soft light in the bathroom was setting a perfect mood as well, so her flustered face looked even more adorable.

"I don't have to sneak up on someone that's already mine, now do I?"

He wrapped his arms around her from behind, and with closed eyes, sniffed her sweaty neck.

"Yup… you need a proper wash."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

The pink turned into a red when he did that out of the blue and she tried to get away from him with new alerted eyes, but his grip around her was firm.

"Want me to wash you up, Miss Twinkle?"

"...hey!"

Using that name was the worst he could have done in this perfect situation, he knew that as well.

She was also getting into the mood, but thanks to that one name…

"Hmph. Bastard."

He was punched and left on the cold floor… just the way he deserved.

As well as exactly the way he wanted it to be.
