A Blade Made of Slime

Chapter 11: Relaxation After A Hard Day

Before we ended up reaching the gate, I recovered Fran's stamina so I didn't have to walk through the gate and explain myself to the guard.

"Nn. Hi."

"Hey welcome... what happened?!"

"Training."

"You seem like you took a beating during your training! The hell did you fight?!"

"I f-"

[Fran! He doesn't know who I am! Remember?!]

(N-nn! U-um... uh...)

"Goblins."

"Hm... you seem really exhausted..."

Fran showed him her adventurer's card and he promptly let her in.

"You should really get some rest."

"Nn."

She walked a bit inside before I could finally respawn my False Body. This cycle was honestly becoming a bit of a hassle but it had to be done.

"There we go. Now Fran."

I crouched down on the ground and faced my hands backwards.

"Come."

"Nn... no thanks."

"Come on. Piggyback."

"No."

"Fran. Come on!"

"Nn..."

*sigh*

"Fran."

"N-n... ok..."

Fran stepped up on my hands and I picked her off the ground. Stern voices really work wonders against children. Not that I like to use it, it just makes things simpler.

"Alright, to the bath!"

We walked through the city much to Fran's embarrassment and made our way towards the bathhouse. The outside wasn't remarkable and going inside changed that perspective a bit. The interior was rather nice and I had to say the interior was definitely different to the normal I went to. This had to be the European style I've seen before.

Before we made our way over, I needed to figure out a way of storing this big ass sword that was my body. There were the two others I made for myself and Fran for training.

It wasn't exactly possible to devour and store myself so Great Sage had come up with the ingenious solution of simply storing my blade body in a Skill called Pocket

We made our way over towards the receptionist here. She was a somewhat elderly woman who probably has seen quite a lot in her time.

"Hello there young ones..! Are you here for the bath?"

"Yup."

"Nn."

"It will be 20 Copper per person."

"We have tickets."

"Oh! Please let me see."

We handed over the tickets as the old lady took a closer look at them to confirm they were legit.

Soon enough, she let us in although...

"Mens... or womens..."

"Nn? Master?"

I haven't had a bath in my human form for a while... I don't have a private part... Do I bathe there..? Or there? I-i mean I guess I look like a girl so it would make sense to... but if there was anyone there, they would obviously question my lack of parts... I... um...
