Chapter 1634: Chapter 1090: The Beginning of Trouble_3

"And last time, Kanako saw you giving this skeleton a bath in the middle of the night? She was almost scared to death, you know?"

"What’s the big deal? Since we’re battle companions, we obviously need to keep things clean. Besides, don’t you think it’s kind of cool?"

"I don’t really get how guys think..."

Kousaka Rina shrugged, and Huang’zen Kumiko gave a wry smile.

"Besides, it’s just a Skeleton Guard. Even if it were alive, it’s still a guy, so two guys bathing together is totally normal."

"Eh? But this Skeleton Miss is a girl, you know."

Just then, Hiwa Ichiki, who overheard Hideichi Tsukamoto and Kousaka Rina’s conversation, curiously chimed in. She was also a member of the battle team, with the Heavenly Duty of a Spirit Caller. At first glance, she seemed a bit like Hideichi Tsukamoto’s Necromancer, but not quite the same. A Necromancer primarily manipulates corpses, while a Spirit Caller communicates with souls and can summon spirits to possess for battle.

Hiwa Ichiki typically fought by summoning animal spirits, like the eyes of an eagle, the ears of a wolf, the speed of a leopard, and the strength of a bear—then rushing forth in a flurry of chaos.

Honestly, the Spirit-possessed Hiwa Ichiki was quite popular among some guys because she’d grow a tail and ears after summoning, and being a beauty herself... yeah.

She’s quite a necessity in her own way.

However, Hideichi Tsukamoto was now worried about another issue.

"Eh? He... I mean, she is a girl?"

"Yeah, and she’s a girl about our age too."

As she spoke, Hiwa Ichiki looked again at the Skeleton Guard standing next to Hideichi Tsukamoto, seemingly having a conversation. After a moment, she looked back at Hideichi Tsukamoto.

"Oh, by the way, Tsukamoto, she wanted me to tell you that although she was a little shy about bathing with you before, she’s very happy with your concern for her..."

"Ugh, no more, please!!!"

At that moment, Hideichi Tsukamoto clutched his head, wanting to crawl into a hole. Kousaka Rina looked at him with eyes as cold as if she were looking at a cockroach.

"So you bathed with a girl and shared a room?"

"I-I didn’t know she was a girl, and she’s just a skeleton, it doesn’t show!"

"Tsukamoto, saying that might hurt her feelings a bit, you know?"

"Eh? Wow, sorry Xiao Bai, I didn’t mean it that way, I mean... you know, I didn’t realize you were..."

"Xiao Bai?"

"Because her bones are white, I named her Xiao Bai, is that a problem?"

"......"

Whatever, if you don’t think it’s a problem, it’s not a problem.

"Alright, alright, no more fooling around."

At this point, Huang’zen Kumiko also stood up to smooth things over.

"Let’s get moving, and we also need to deal with these Demon Beast corpses. Miyake Student, could you handle it?"

"Oh, got it."

Soon, a guy with glasses came over and quickly launched several fireballs, completely scorching the corpses of the bristle-haired rats on the ground.

"Well then, let’s head back."

Though not much, they were gradually growing bit by bit.
