"Could it be because everyone is here?"
After thinking for a mont, Miko considered this possibility.
There was no helping it; in her eyes, today's Wendy was obviously a bit too well-behaved, completely failing to match the image of the Wendy who often bickered with her.
However, she also knew that when the two of them bickered, it was usually just the two of them present, with no one else around.
But now there was a bunch of people here, so maybe that little girl Wendy just wanted to pretend to be a well-behaved child.
Sigh...
To think this little girl actually has this kind of scheming mind...
I really underestimated her...
After observing Wendy for a bit longer, Miko couldn't help but think this.
"Why do you keep looking at Wendy?" At this mont, i's voice suddenly ca from the side.
"It's just rare to see that little girl Wendy being so well-behaved."
Not expecting her focus to be so intense that she hadn't noticed i looking at her, Miko quickly replied.
Originally, she didn't want to voice the opinion she just had, but since i asked, she would say it.
"What do you an 'rare to see so well-behaved'? I've always been well-behaved."
Regarding Miko's words, Wendy, who had already finished preparing the small hot spring for Paimon on the other side, imdiately retorted.
However, she also knew that helping everyone change swimsuits and setting up the hot spring for Paimon here really didn't match the image she usually displayed.
But there was no helping it; Kaito was too lazy to move, so she had to be the one to entertain Miko and the others who had co over.
"Right? Acheron-neesan~"
Seeing Miko remain silent, Wendy asked 'herself' with a well-behaved expression.
This little girl can really pretend...
Miko, who was originally wondering whether to ntion that she often bickered with Wendy, couldn't quite hold it back after hearing Wendy's words just now.
"It would be even better if you could treat others like this too."
After thinking for a mont, Acheron gave this answer.
Since the personality Wendy usually displayed was that of a not-so-nice girl, Acheron decided to pretend to expose her a bit. This would align better with Miko's perception of Wendy, and wouldn't make Miko feel strange about Wendy's personality changing back and forth.
"Hahaha—"
Miko, who was just wondering what i would say, couldn't help but laugh out loud after hearing her words.
It had to be said, i did exactly the right thing, directly exposing this little girl's true colors. Let's see how she pretends now.
"Be careful not to drink the hot spring water, Little Fox."
Looking as if her expression changed imdiately after being exposed, Wendy said this sowhat unhappily, then walked towards the chairs. "I'm going to lie down and nap for a while. I won't soak in the hot spring with you guys anymore."
After speaking, Wendy lay directly on the chair and closed her eyes.
This little girl actually sulks...
Looking at Wendy lying on the chair, Miko suddenly felt she was quite cute.
But she also knew that if it were just her and Wendy, that little girl obviously wouldn't sulk, but would bicker with her in various ways.
That's right.
Suddenly thinking of sothing, Miko turned her head to look at i beside her and said, "Say, i, did you know? This little girl used to call Little Fox all the ti, and she'd say all day long that she'd use the wind to blow into the sky. She's terrible, not well-behaved at all."
As she spoke, Miko glanced from ti to ti at Wendy, who was lying on the chair, unsure if she was asleep or not. She wanted to see what kind of reaction this little girl would have.
However, after watching for quite a while, she didn't see Wendy open her eyes, as if she had really fallen asleep.
This little girl is definitely pretending to sleep...
I don't believe she could fall asleep in a room for soaking in hot springs...
Withdrawing her gaze to look at i, Miko thought this with great certainty.
"If you can't bear it, then go beat her up."
Under Miko's gaze, Acheron spoke slowly.
Miko: "???"
It had to be said, Miko was startled by i's answer.
Although she definitely couldn't beat Wendy, she didn't expect i to offer such a solution.
"So simple and crude? i. And besides, I can't beat her."
After being shocked for a good while, Miko said helplessly.
There was no helping it; regarding this, she truly couldn't beat Wendy.
Then, as if suddenly thinking of sothing, Miko turned her gaze towards Kaito. "Hey! You guy, say sothing! Your girlfriend is too bad; you need to educate her properly!"
"I will, I will."
eting Miko's gaze, Kaito nodded.
Although he looked a bit perfunctory, Miko surely wouldn't make him educate Wendy right here.
Right...
Why has that little one Lumine gone quiet again?
Seeing Kaito's perfunctory manner, Miko really wanted to hit soone, but thinking of Lumine, she couldn't be bothered to deal with this matter anymore and turned to look at Lumine's side.
Sigh...
With so many people, Lumine probably finds it hard to do anything...
And I don't know if the two of them will act as if nothing happened after going back later...
Speaking of which, back then he and I also acted as if nothing had happened... Except for telling Lumine. And even then, the process was altered a bit...
Looking at Lumine, Miko also recalled that night she and Kaito spent at another inn.
Although she felt it might have all been an illusion, no matter what, she hadn't ntioned that matter again, and that guy Kaito was the sa, as if nothing had happened at all.
Should I...
Also do sothing?
Miko, who was originally thinking about Lumine's affairs, couldn't help but think of her own matters at this mont.
But soon she snapped back to reality, looked at Lumine, and said, "Co over here, Lumine. Why did you run so far away?"
Actually, this indoor hot spring was just an irregular circle. Lumine was rely opposite her and i, not very far away, but Miko said it anyway.
Afterwards, she pointed to her right side, signaling Lumine to co and soak beside her. And on her left side was i.
Ran so far?
Suddenly hearing Miko speak to her, Lumine was stunned for a mont.
This hot spring wasn't that big to begin with; how far could she run?
But even so, she nodded and moved to Miko's side.
"How does it feel?"
After Lumine sat down beside her, Miko asked such a question without explicitly stating what she was referring to.
"How does what feel? Soaking in the hot spring?"
Regarding Miko's question, Lumine obviously didn't understand what she was asking.
All she could think of was soaking in the hot spring.
Of course, after speaking, she did think of another possibility.
But with so many people here now, she was too embarrassed to say it out loud.
