Chapter 75: Trial Use

Although it was snowing heavily outside, it had become very warm inside the hut.

Senju also lit fire to several netherracks nearby to make the inside of the house warmer.

Fortunately, these fires do not require oxygen.

Senju only needs to surround them, otherwise he would have to use lava to keep warm, but that feels a bit dangerous.

While Senju was thinking wildly, the food in the pot was also cooked.

Tonight's food was boiled taro, which was simple and delicious. The three of them took one taro each and ate it slowly.

Perhaps due to today's experience, the atmosphere in the room was a little depressing at first, but after a while, everyone no longer cared about it.

After all, for the three of them, this place was just a point in the journey.

"Give me another one."

After finishing the taro on her hand, Yuuri clamored for a second one, but Senju only cooked three for dinner, one for each person was just right.

"Shut up, Yuu. We're going to have a rest in a while. You don't need to eat too much." Chito ate more than half of the taro and glared at Yuuri who had finished eating in one bite.

"Oh, but I'm still hungry, Chii-chan, give me one side of yours." Yuuri looked at the taro in Chito's hand with salivation.

*Nom* *Nom* *Nom*

"..." Chito didn't say anything, but finished the taro in her hand in a few mouthfuls.

"It's a pity that there is no more."

"Hey, Senju." Yuuri looked at Senju on the side, but he had finished eating, so Yuri had to turn her attention to the food shelf on the side, "Hey, there are a lot more here."

"Yuu, you forgot again." Chito pulled Yuuri's face, "I said you shouldn't steal food."

"Uh-huh, just a little is enough, Chii-chan." Yuuri threw herself on the bed aside and started to fake cry.

"If it doesn't work, it won't work."

"Yuu has gained a lot of weight from eating recently, and you must strictly control your food." Chito ignored Yuuri's fake cry and revealed an incredible message.

But Yuuri didn't care very much. She was very happy after getting up from the bed.

"Hehehe, Chii-chan said that I'm fat there. It's better to say that Chii-chan is too thin and needs to eat more."

"What a shame, I don't want to grow up that big." Chito smacked Yuuri on the head, and Yuuri stuck out her tongue to show that she understood.

But after a while, she thought of something else, "Chii-chan, let's take a shower together. I feel a little uncomfortable because I'm sweating today. You must be too, Senju. Your body must be very cold."

"Well, a hot bath is indeed good." Chito said, a little excited.

"But we haven't prepared any hot water yet."

"No, it's ready." Yuuri pointed to the iron box on the fire next to them. It was originally meant for preparing bath water. Yuuri didn't know when it had been filled with water, but it was already starting to boil.

"...Isn't this a little too hot?" Senju was speechless for a moment, but Yuuri started to put cold water in the bath, then added hot water. After a while, the small bath was full of properly hot water.

Then she pulled up a curtain, turning the area where the bathtub was into a small space.

This was a preparation to prevent water from splashing outside and prevent the spread of water vapor.

After preparing the bathhouse, Yuuri stripped naked and rushed in. Chito and Senju were waiting outside.

After all, the bathhouse in the cabin was not big, only big enough for one person. Everyone needed to take turns taking a bath.

Chito was holding a book outside and started reading, while Senju was staring at the boiling water in a daze. Can fish be caught in it?

(T/L: Man got priorities)

Senju tried it out of boredom, and was actually able to catch fish.

Of course, he knew that system fishing had nothing to do with the state of the water, but this very common-sense scene still amused him.

He continued fishing and eventually caught an enchanted book with Fire Aspect 2.

Looking at the book in his hand, Senju was unsure whether this was an accident or a coincidence, but he decided to end his fishing session.

After all, he had received an enchanted book, so the fishing was over.

While he was fishing, Yuuri was humming a song in the bath.

When he finished, Yuuri stopped humming, and he heard the sound of water, indicating that Yuuri's bath was over.

"Chii-chan, give me the towel," Yuuri called to Chito, wanting her help, but Chito was immersed in her book. She responded once but didn't move.

"Chii-chan?" Yuuri poked her head out, her hair still wet. "Reading again? Senju, give me the towel."

"Yes, yes, dry your hair quickly, otherwise you'll catch a cold," Senju said, taking a large towel hanging on the wall and handing it to her. Yuuri took it and shrank back.

After a while, Yuuri came out wearing a robe and a towel. She walked gently to Chito and shouted, "Chii-chan! It's time for you to take a bath!"

"Wha!?" Chito was startled, and then looked at Yuuri's weird look, "Yuu, why are you wearing it like that?"

"Because this is looks very beautiful, don't you think, Chii-chan?" Yuuri waved the towel behind her, making a serious expression, and then made Chito laugh.

"Yes, yes, Yuu, go to bed quickly. I need to use the towel next." After saying that, she pulled the towel away, then took off her coat and went in wearing a robe.

After seeing Chito enter, Yuuri looked at Senju with shining eyes, leaned over and whispered, "Senju, please give me some food."

"Hmm?"

"Ohh, ahh, but there are some food on the shelf- hmm?!"

Senju looked at the food next to him with some confusion, but his voice was a little loud, and Yuuri quickly covered his mouth.

"What's wrong?" Chito's voice came from inside, and Yuuri quickly replied.

"It's okay, Chii-chan, please take a good bath."

"Hmm..." it seemed that Chito was engrossed to the hot water again, Yuuri explained to Senju on the side, "Chii-chan has remembered the amount of food on the shelf. If it is missing, she will notice it. In the end, she will definitely be very angry."

"Fine, but it's not good for Yuuri to eat alone. After I take a shower, let's drink tea and have snacks together." Senju thought for a moment and decided that it would be better for everyone to eat something together, leaving Yuuri alone.

I feel sorry for Chito's hard work.

"Really?" Yuuri drooled, but now Chito had just gone in to take a bath, and there was still a long time, so she urged Senju to hurry up, "Senju, please go in and wash quickly, and then take out the snack!"

"Be honest, there is still a lot of time," Senju struck Yuuri with a karate chop to the head, and she stopped.

Then she threw herself on the bed next to her and started fantasizing.

Unfortunately, her fantasies went too far and she actually fell asleep there. Senju next to her was speechless for a while, so he had no choice but to cover her with a quilt.

Welp, got some refining to do (⁠─⁠.⁠─⁠|⁠|).
