A worrying factor appeared from somewhere unexpected, but I think it’s good that I’m learning about this now rather than later .
“And that concludes my discussions . ” [Reinhart]
“In that case, can I start next?” [Elize]
This time it was the madam who spoke .
Contrast to Reinhart-san who passed out wanted posters earlier, she’s in a good mood .
It’s probably because of those things I gave her this afternoon .
“Elize, it’s been on my mind for a while now, but you seem to have been in a rather good mood since supper . ” [Reinhart]

“That’s right! Actually, Ryoumkun made a ‘bath bomb’ and a ‘sugar scrub’ for me just awhile ago! Because of that all that pent up fatigue from before were washed away in one fell swoop~” [Elize]
The madam started giving her impressions after using those two products I gave her .
“Ah, is this related to the beautifying effect you were talking about yesterday? …A medicine that can change bath water to a hot spring . What an interesting thing indeed . ” [Reinhart]
“Ryouma, is that medicine that beautifies the skin that effective?” [Pioro]
“It would vary from person to person . ” [Ryouma]
“I want more of those things you gave me! It’s easy to throw a bath bomb into the bath and I was able to warm my body up more compared to just bath water . And just a little rubbing from that sugar scrub was able to change the moisture of my skin!” [Elize]
Seeing the madam talking like this brings me back .
Once you’ve gotten used to them already, they’re nothing much to speak of, but it’s really eyeopening when using them for the first time .
I was the same back in my past life when I first used a sugar scrub .
To be honest, I had no interest whatsoever in beauty, but there was also no reason to waste something I’d received .
But just one use and I was like ’Huh? This might actually be really good . ’

When I spoke about it at work, everyone laughed since they couldn’t imagine a big guy like me using beauty products .
“Madam, what I made this noon was just the simplest type . If I were to fuss over the type of oil used and the perfumed oil, I should be able to make something even better . ” [Ryouma]
Bath bombs can also be tuned by changing the amount of bath bomb and citric acid to make the bath water slightly alkaline or acidic .
Using water that’s slightly alkaline makes it easier to remove filth from the pores in the skin, and the acidity has an effect of neutralizing aging odor . The perfect ally of a man in his forties!
Moreover, water made slightly acidic by citric acid has the effect of allowing one to recover from exhaustion, as well as give anti-inflammatory effects . It also has a sterilizing and deodorizing effect different from that of weak alkaline water . Human skin is slightly acidic, so it’s gentler on the skin compared to slightly alkaline water .
Which one to use depends on what’s constitution and condition of the skin . Of course, one could choose simply depending on how one feels .
And if you compare these methods with medicinal baths that use medicinal herbs or seasonal vegetations, there’s a myriad of ways to improve a bath .
“How wonderful!” [elize]
“It’s effective against aging odor? Maybe I should give it a try myself…” [Pioro]
“Pioro, are you worried?” [Reinhart]
“Fool! I’m not at that age yet! It’s just that my wife might have made a passing remark or two before, so…” [Pioro]
“Ha ha ha… Well, if Elize is praising it to this extent, then it must be amazing . ” [Reinhart]
“Right . Ryoumsama, if it’s no trouble to you, won’t you allow us to also try those bath bombs and sugar scrubs of yours?” [Reinhart]
“It’s no trouble at all . I still have some ingredients left from this afternoon . I’ll make some and send them to your room later . ” [Ryouma]
That concluded the conversation with the madam regarding the beauty products .
Next, it was my turn to talk about the things I couldn’t talk about yesterday, but…
But everyone suddenly sat straight up .
“What is it all of the sudden?” [Ryouma]
“Well, you kept dropping one bomb after another yesterday like those running mash of yours . ” [Pioro]
“Frankly, it’s a bit scary wondering what bomb you’ll be dropping next . ” [Serge]
“I thought it would be a good idea to brace myself ahead of time . ” [Elize]
“Alright . My heart is ready . Now, Ryouma! Come and try your worst!” [Reinhart]
…But if they do this, the one who gets pressured is me!
Am I the only one who can feel this atmosphere that makes it feel like I better not talk about anything boring?
“In that case, let’s talk about another slime use that I wasn’t able to talk about last time . ” [Ryouma]
While everyone was strangely tense, I talked about the serum of the bloody slime .
First, I gave a simple explanation of what blood serums and antibodies are . I spoke of me teaching a group of new adventurers .
I also explained why my bloody slime ended up ingesting poison .
And then from there, I talked about the slime’s recovery and the increase in level it observed on its poison skill . Finally, I tied that in with the blood serum and antibodies .
When I started talking about extracting the antibodies and experimenting on animals…
“…” [Reinhart, Elize, Serge, Pioro]
All four of my audience was wearing a serious face .
“…And so we sit here justified in bracing ourselves . ” [Reinhart]
Reinhart-san said . The other three nodded .
