Chapter 7

I am lying down on a branch of a large tree. It is windy. It makes me want to sleep, I want to close my eyes for a while "Ryu Haruto! It`s time to leave!" Jehanne shouted at me.

"I want to sleep but…"

I have no choice but to follow them, I accepted their job. I hope the rewards that I will earn is worth it. I jump towards Jehanne with a cool descending post.

As what I see the soldiers are done preparing, I should follow them. We started to walk. I heard two girls whispering at my back right now. Gifardus is walking in my left side. While the girls were at our back.

"Hey Jehanne what do you think? Why is he wearing a mask and hood?" another repeated question?! Why are you so curious about this! "I don't know, Gifardus said maybe he have battle scars in his face" Okay thank you Gifardus for telling her that in the first place.

We have been walking for hours. When I look up the sky it was almost dark. Night time again. "We will camp here for the night". Good spot sir Gifardus. We camp on a plain area, near to a river.

Gifardus and the others are washing themselves in the river. Only me, Erza and Jehanne are here. It`s too awkward to talk to you guys, I`m sorry.

"Ryu Haruto, can we call you Ryu? Your name is too long in exchange you can also call me Erza,"

Thank you for breaking the silence Erza. "I have no problem with that, but is it okay to call you?

Without the princess word?" In novels and manga. If you call a princess in her first name, it means your close or something.

"I ask for it right?"

"O-okay"

"Ryu? You're not going to clean yourself? The soldiers are at the river you should join them" sorry

Jehanne, I don't want to let them see my appearance yet. "I want to bath alone". Speaking with this two beauties is a man`s dream.

I should craft a mini bathroom so that they can wash too. I know it`s bad if this two will wash in the river. If the soldiers will find about it, lust will crawl to them.

"Ryu? Where are you going?"

"I`ll be right back"

"Erza? Where do you think he will go?"

I should do it fast, I opened the crafting menu. Using the hide of the monster, I crafted the hide and make it into a curtain, I should use the bones to support it. It`s hard to make an outdoor bathroom but with the system, it`s very easy.

It`s now finished! I should hurry back!, the two of them are still talking, I know you want to bathe girls.

"Jehanne, Erza follow me" With my sudden call, they did not react? They even followed me immediately.

"I know you want to bathe, so I decided to make this" The moment they see what I made, their faces are stunned. They are still too cute even though their faces are shocked.

"R-Ryu? How did you make this?" I know Erza will ask about it "I just crafted them with the materials I asked. Please don't ask anymore or the soldiers will finish their bath"

The two girls did not waste any time and enjoying themselves, I also crafted a large bucket and using my water element to fill it.

I guarded them, without letting them notice. Promise I did not peek at them.

At last, they are done! I returned to the camp immediately, the soldiers are starting to enter their tents and the others are already asleep.

I see Gifardus near the firewood sitting in a wooden chair. A captain in a night watch? I should accompany him. I walk towards him.

"Ryu? Why aren't you asleep yet? You should rest. I will take care of the night watch"

"It`s okay Gifardus, I also want to wash at the river, I will return immediately when I`m done"

"Okay, be careful"

I stand up immediately and proceed to the river. I haven't bathe for almost two whole days. I wonder why I don't smell bad.

I took off my equipment and I don't care if I`m fully naked. Everyone is asleep so I don't have any problems with it. I jump in the river and enjoying myself as well.

"Jehanne, I know you`re awake. If you're still curious at him to follow him"

Jehanne immediately walked towards the river without saying anything. She was hiding behind a tree, looking for me. Is it really a big issue wearing a mask and a hood?

{Ryu? Jehanne is looking at you. You should face in the direction where she is hiding. But don't act too obvious}.

Immediately, I face in her direction. She sees my real appearance now, I did this on purpose so that she will not be curious in me.

Jehanne slowly stepped back for five steps, she was stumbled by a small rock. She shrieked in pain.

{Ryu! She shrieked! Quickly act that you notice her!}

I quickly wear my equipment, I don't want to approach her fully naked, or else she will see my Excalibur. I slowly walk towards her and I can feel that she was slightly scared. She closed her eyes as if she was waiting for me to use my sword because she saw my appearance.

I am only staring at her while she was closing her eyes. She is really beautiful.

"Jehanne? Open your eyes. I`m not mad at you or going to kill you. It is okay that you see my appearance but please don't tell them yet first"

{Ryu, give offer your hands to her and while her body slowly raised, support her wait with your other hand}

I followed the system`s instructions, I offered my hand and she gladly accepted, then I use my other hand to hold her wait. Her cheeks were color red. Damn! She`s so cute! I want to hug her!

"Are you hurt? Sorry for scaring you"

"N-n-no! It was my fault for spying at you, you're not mad at me? Right?"

"Why should I? But again, please don't tell them about my appearance for now"

"Y-yes"

I caressed her head while saying thanks to her.

"You should go first Jehanne, Gifardus will doubt us if we walk together"

I see Jehanne off, walking towards the camp. Why is she walking like a robot? She was really cute lately!.

{Well done Ryu, your moves were so smooth}.

"Yeah, because of you, and I just realized that I never wasted my past life playing Dating simulator games"

{And now what's your plan? making a harem?}.

"Eh?! Where did that question come from?!"

I was shocked by what she said, sigh. I will not listen to her for a while. I should head back too.

"Jehanne? It took you so long, I thought something has happened to you"

"I`m fine, I was just strolling too lately"

Jehanne quickly entered the tent.

"Eh? What's wrong with her?"

Sorry, It`s all my fault. I arrived at the camp, Gifardus talked to me.

"Oh? You're done! Ryu, use my tent and quickly rest, tomorrow if there is no obstacles we will arrive at the Ephoria kingdom in the afternoon"

nodded at him, and immediately use his tent.
