"bath?"
After the man in black robe said this with a slightly doubtful tone, he changed to a tone full of reminiscence and continued:
"Speaking of which, it seems that I haven't taken a shower for a long time... probably two or three years. But my body will not be stained. The only thing that will be stained is the black robe on my body.
Small insects like flies and lice don't dare to come near me, so it doesn't matter if I don't take a shower."
As soon as the man in black robe finished speaking, Jill let out a disdainful laugh.
Jeanne, who was sitting opposite the man in black robe, also showed a helpless smile.
"Mr. Sage...you are making such an exaggerated joke again."
"I'm not kidding~~"
The man in black robe said this in a joking tone, making his words even less credible.
"Well, forget it. Although I don't need to take a shower, it feels good to try taking a shower after a long time."
The man in black robe stood up as he spoke.
"Then I'll take a long bath tonight!"
…
"This is the bathroom shared by our families."
As Jeanne said this, she led the man in black robe into a small wooden house that was not large in area.
After entering this small wooden house, the man in black robe felt the heat and moisture coming from the shop floor.
This cabin is empty, without any items or facilities.
There are several ditches on the ground responsible for diverting water away.
"Our families share this bathroom. When you want to take a bath, you boil a bucket of hot water and go into this bathroom, and wipe your body with the boiled hot water."
As Jeanne spoke, she placed the wooden bucket filled with hot water that she had been carrying in the center of the small wooden house.
"Mr. Sage, please wash it slowly. I just borrowed a set of clothes from the aunt next door who has a very good relationship with me. After you wash it, you can put on this clean set of clothes. As for your body,
Just change into this black robe and give it to me, I will wash it well."
"Oh! Jeanne, you are so considerate."
The man in black robe raised his hand and pinched Jeanna's cheek, then continued:
"I feel more and more, Jeanne, that you are really a considerate and reliable girl. The person who can marry you in the future must have saved the world in his ancestors."
"Mr. Sage, your words are too exaggerated." Jeanne said a little shyly, "Okay, Mr. Sage, you can take off your clothes. Just give me the black robe you took off."
"Yeah, well, I'm sorry to bother you, Jeanne."
The man in black robe raised his hands and grabbed both sides of his hood.
"Speaking of it...when was the last time I took off my hood and black robe...it feels like so long ago that I can't even remember..."
After saying that, the man in black robe gently lifted off the hood that was deep on his head.
His face was revealed under the hood.
Looking at the face of the man in black robe after taking off his hood, Jeanna suddenly opened her eyes.
"Mr. Xian, Mr. Xian..." Jeanna said in astonishment, "You, you are actually...?!"
…
After Jill finished her dinner, she went back to bed.
Gill, who was lying on the bed, lay on his side and turned his face towards the wall next to the bed.
Looking at the dilapidated wooden wall, Jill's thoughts gradually returned to that night not long ago...
…
"It's the Britannia Army! We've fallen into a trap!"
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
"Run away!!"
"Uhhhhhhhhhhh!"
"We'll fight the Northern Dog!"
"Jill! Run away!"
"Jill! I can't run away anymore! Run away! I'll buy you some time! Although I can only delay you for about a second..."
"Ode! Wait!"
…
The memories of that night not long ago slowly emerged in Jill's mind again.
Pain, unwillingness, and guilt gradually appeared on Jill's face again.
The hands that were originally spread out were slowly clenched again.
at this time
"Big brother, big brother."
The soft calls from behind Jill brought Jill's thoughts back to reality from that night not long ago.
Without turning his head, Jill said in a voice without any emotion:
"What's wrong?"
"Now that the bathroom is free, brother, would you like to take a bath..."
Before Jeanne finished speaking, Jill interrupted directly:
"No, thank you. Leave me alone for a while."
"But, but..."
After hearing what Gill said, Jeannaben wanted to say something else.
"Oh, Jeanne, people say they don't want to take a shower tonight, so there's no need to force them. Let's just let this kid stay quietly tonight. After all, what he needs most right now is someone alone.
Stay quietly for a while."
A beautiful female voice like a silver bell came from behind Jill.
After hearing these words, Gil, who was lying on his side on the bed with his eyes half-closed, suddenly widened his eyes.
The expression of unwillingness and pain on his face quickly receded like a tide, and turned into a look of shock.
Wait... isn't this tone... the tone of the man in black robe?!
Then, Gil turned his stiff neck and looked behind him.
Standing behind him was Jeanne, who was still wearing a blue dress and a white blouse.
But the person standing next to Jeanne was not the man in black robes as Gill had imagined.
Instead, there stood a woman with a beautiful face.
Judging from her face, the woman standing next to Jeanne was about 16 or 7 years old. She was wearing a very ordinary village girl's clothes.
The facial features are correct, delicate and quite beautiful.
Jill was born into a noble family, so naturally she had seen many beautiful noble girls.
Gil dared to conclude that in terms of beauty, this woman could definitely compare with most of the aristocratic girls he had seen in the past twenty years.
She has fair skin and smooth, beautiful silver-white waist-length hair hanging freely.
A pair of blue eyes looked playfully at Jill, who was looking at her with a dazed expression.
The words that just sounded like silver bells, but the tone was that of the man in black, came from this woman's mouth.
"You, are you..." Jill looked at the woman dumbfounded, "that man in black robe...?"
The woman looked at Jill with an increasingly playful look.
"Huh? Although my voice has changed a bit, my tone should not have changed, right? My speaking tone and style should be easy to recognize, right?"
"But, but?" The look of astonishment on Jill's face gradually grew stronger, and her lips were slightly open due to shock, "What's wrong with your voice...?"
In Jill's impression, the voice of the man in black robe that he just met today is clearly neither male nor female. There is no way to judge the gender from the timbre!
So what’s up with this beautiful female voice now?
"oh……"
The woman, the man in black robe, said softly "Oh" and then cleared her throat.
"Is this the sound you're talking about?"
What came out of the black-robed man's throat was no longer the pleasant sound like a silver bell just now, but the previous sound that was neither male nor female.
"This is just a voice-changing technique. It's not a magical skill. With a little practice, everyone can master this technique and change their own voice. The reason why I wore a black robe before to change my voice was just
I just don’t want others to know my gender. Today I met this lovely girl Jeanne, which made me feel very good, so I took off my black robe for the first time in a long time and changed back to my original voice~~"
"This voice now is my original voice~~"
The voice of the man in black robe changed back to the pleasant female voice.
Jill was still looking blankly at the man in black robe who was no longer wearing black robe, and had not yet come to his senses.
And just before Jill came back to her senses, Jeanne on the side had already flashed her eyes with little stars popping out. The expression on her face seemed to have made up her mind, and she looked at Black with admiration.
Man in robe.
"First of all, Sage... No, Miss Sage! I just wanted to ask you after seeing you take off your black robe! Miss Sage, it is really as you said, although the clothes are extremely dirty
You are wearing a black robe, but the body wrapped under this black robe is very clean! Miss Sage, how did you do it? I want to learn too!"
Just now in the bathroom, the man in black robe took off her black robe. Jeanne originally expected to see the man in black robe's extremely dark and dirty skin because she hadn't taken a shower for too long.
After all, wearing such a dirty black robe, no one would think that the body wrapped under this black robe would be clean.
However, the result shocked Jeanne.
After the man in black robe took off his black robe, his skin was not as dirty as Jeanna thought.
The skin of the man in black robe wrapped under this extremely dirty black robe is extremely clean and fair.
It was as if I had just taken a shower.
After hearing Jeanne's question, the man in black robe smiled sweetly.
"This is a secret. I'm sorry, Jeanne, I can't tell you this secret."
