Chapter 758: Flying Bedroom 6
Hiding away from prying eyes, I continued to imitate a carpenter for several days. Finally, the interior I had envisioned began to take shape.
……And so, I showed the results to those closest to me.
“What do you think? Not bad for an amateur, right?”
I called over Selenium, Apple, Jeanne, and Anzeros and Aurora. I didn’t invite the older members of the group, even though it was amateur work, because I wanted them to praise me a little at least the first time. I hope they understand my delicate male pride.
“So, the outer shed was done by the master carpenter from the northern forest, and the interior was done by Andy, right?”
“Yeah”
Selenium looked around intently. She wondered if she had chosen the wrong people. They all seemed skilled at carpentry. However, since giving birth to Eleania, she had only seen her maternal side, so she felt like Selenium had aged significantly, but when she was away from her child, she looked more like a 「Beautiful Girl」 than a 「Beautiful Woman」. Perhaps it was because of the 「Lightness」 in her movements. It’s a kind of liveliness or elegance. Dianne and Laila can show incredible agility when they want to, and they can even jump onto the roof of a house while carrying a grown man, but in everyday life, they don’t show off their speed and instead move in a relaxed manner. However, their movements are so efficient that they lack the innocence of a girl. Selenium’s movements, on the other hand, have a slight 「Wastefulness」 to them. When she jumps up or down small steps, she does so lightly, and when she turns around, her movements are slightly larger, as if she overcompensates before adjusting her angle. This isn’t because Selenium lacks skill in body movement……her stealth in critical moments is endorsed by Dianne-san. Such everyday movements are also a form of self-expression for her. Calling it 「Flattery」 or 「Trying to look young」 would be a crude way to put it, but such criticism would be inappropriate for someone with elf blood. What kind of person does she want to be? The lightness of a girl or the composure of an adult? Since she still looks like a young girl, there’s no need to force herself to look older. Thinking that way, I should straighten my own posture too. My body, thanks to the miraculous spring, is in perfect health, like that of a teenager. Acting old would be a waste. I should be more grateful for my current circumstances. ……But as I get lost in these unrelated thoughts, Jeanne’s voice inside the room snaps me back to reality.
“This stool can be folded up. Did Andy really make this?”
“Yes. That’s something I put a lot of effort into. It looks flimsy, but it’s actually quite sturdy”
A long bench with a seat that can be raised against the wall. The carved patterns make it strong enough to support heavy weights. I’ve jumped on it several times since it was made, but it doesn’t creak at all. The wood from the Elf territory is of good quality, but the engraving, which was the result of trial and error, should also be effective.
“This side is a bed……I added a small handrail so that it can withstand being tilted or shaken during bad weather”
“Isn’t that in the way?”
“If it gets in the way, I’ll have to sleep in a very free style……”
The bed area, which takes up half the space, has U-shaped handrails spaced one meter apart at waist height to keep the body fixed in place while lying down. To prevent them from breaking, I made a metal rod as the core and sandwiched it between wood. Since everyone will be naked on the bed, I thought it would be unpleasant if the metal felt cold. The bed itself has a standard spring structure. I secretly referenced the bed in the baron’s mansion and made a copy. It’s amazing what you can do when you try. I had all the iron parts made at once at Breakcore’s labyrinth village. I avoided Jackie-san’s place. Anzeros and Aurora have tried out the beds, and they seem to be quite comfortable.
“If you’re going to sleep on it every day, it would be better if it were a little softer, but for a bed for sex, this hardness is probably just right”
“I’m also concerned about how to deal with dirt. Well, if worse comes to worst, we can always use magic”
“We’ve got that covered too. Actually, those sheets are a secret treasure of the cherry blossom clan”
When I consulted with Christie, she said there was a fabric that was resistant to stains and odors, and she sent me a bunch of bolts of it. Cherry blossom clan elves often have to take care of unicorns, so their clothes get pretty dirty, and this fabric was developed for people in that line of work. Due to the processing, the color is only a pale gray, so it’s not very popular among the clan members……she said with a wry smile. But even if it’s soaked in horse dung, it can be washed with just water and the color and smell disappear completely. And yet, the texture is as soft as silk. ……If I sold this to merchants outside the forest, it could bring in a lot of foreign currency, I almost said, but I held back. It’s such a suitable material, but if they demand a lot of foreign currency, that would be a problem. Yeah. So, I had the fabric sewn into sheets, and even after some wild sex, the bed is easy to maintain. I also made it so it doesn’t lift too far off the ground, so it shouldn’t fall over and hurt you if it tilts. Of course, I assembled the frame to match the room’s dimensions and securely fixed the bench, bed, and handrails to the floor and walls. If it’s turned upside down, I’m a little worried about its strength, but if it’s just turned sideways, the bed shouldn’t slide and get stuck.
“So……Andy-san. Are we going to Talc or Basson?”
Apple looked around the room.
“What about luggage storage?”
“……Ah”
…Right, that’s true. Humans can just sleep or sit on the bed, but traveling without luggage isn’t very common. In a carriage, you could just stuff the luggage under the seats or between them, but in this wide space, that won’t work. If the luggage shifts even slightly to the sides, it would be quite bothersome. But setting up a luggage storage area now…….
“How about the attic?”
Selenium points. This hut does have an attic space. But there’s no way to open it.
“Yeah, I couldn’t fit it in there either”
“That’s a design flaw, isn’t it?”
“It’s supposedly made of some incredibly special wood that even an iron blade can’t cut, so maybe they think it’s rodent-proof and watertight”
Hearing that, Jeanne tapped the rough exterior wall.
“What kind of wood is it?”
“They told me, but I couldn’t remember. It’s some really long name in elf language”
There’s no suitable translation, but if I force one, it’s something like 「The fragrant wood resembling the brave memory of the sister of the hero of the pure light’s right grave」, but even that’s way too long. I told Irina to at least give it a shorter name, but apparently among the elves, it’s just referred to as 「That hard wood」. That’s not exactly helpful either.
“But it’s weird that we can’t get into the attic space……ah, maybe”
Selenium went outside and nimbly climbed onto the roof. It sounds easy, but there’s nearly 50 centimeters of space under the floor, so it’s more than three meters to the eaves of the roof. I can’t climb up that easily. Then there was some rustling.
“I found it! The entrance!”
“Really?”
“Yes! We can go in!”
I hurriedly made a ladder and climbed up onto the roof, where I found a strange square opening.
“How did you open this? Doesn’t it leak when it rains?”
“It seems to be designed so that it won’t leak if you close it properly. But it’s pretty small”
If we use this as a storage space, it’ll be a bit of a hassle to climb up to the roof every time we need to get something in or out. But the space is just the right size for a storage area, even though you have to bend over to get in and out.
“This wood seems to absorb almost all sound, so it might be good for hiding someone”
“No, don’t hide anyone. Who would want to hide here anyway?”
“……Maybe someone like Lantz who wants to watch us having sex?”
“This hut is too well-built to have any gaps like that! Besides, even if Lantz were here, he’d just be sitting below and watching us have sex right in front of him!”
“……Eh, really?”
Selenium looked a bit surprised. ……Come to think of it, Selenium wasn’t involved in the siege of Renfangas Fortress or the suppression of Sitar, so she probably doesn’t know about the moral hazard that occurred there.
“I think Anzeros, Tetes, and Sharon would be fine if Lantz saw them. Fennel and the others might not be ready yet.”
“……So, everyone’s gone that far……I guess I have to try harder too……”
“No, you don’t have to try harder. It’s okay”
In the first place, if we’re bringing Lantz with us, we should use another dragon to ride in the carriage. We’re not going to show off and make him happy on purpose……ah, no, I think there are quite a few who are starting to wake up. No, that’s irrelevant. It has nothing to do with the main topic. Anyway, using this place for smuggling is probably not interesting or meaningful. Good kids shouldn’t do that.
“For now, it’s probably better than flying in a carriage”
“I think so too. It’s just that……Andy is finally in a position where he can do nothing but have sex……♪”
“It’s been too cramped until now”
“Our mission is over, and everyone’s planning to get pregnant, so……♪”
When I asked everyone for their impressions, this is pretty much what they said. I can’t really comment on how good or bad my carpentry is……I’m not an expert, after all. It’s a little sad. I wanted them to praise me for doing a decent job. But in reality, there are some things you can’t know until you try. After all, the purpose of this hut is to provide comfortable transportation in place of a horse-drawn carriage. So it has to be able to fly.
“Laila!”
When I called out to her, she must have been nearby, because a few seconds later she jumped down from the sky and landed with a thud.
“Ho. What is it?”
“Test flight. I want you to take this hut and fly around the area for about an hour”
“I see. ……Don’t we need to gather more people?”
“Well……”
It might be better to test it with more people, but I just want to know how it handles and how comfortable it is. ……Thinking that, I looked at the female slaves who were supposed to ride, and they were taking off their clothes outside the hut and getting naked.
“Wait, I just want to know how it feels to ride it, not do anything else……what’s going on? Why are you all stripping outside the hut without being told to?”
“It’s called the 『Flying Bedroom』”
“Well, if that’s the name of the hut, then as female slaves, we can’t go inside wearing clothes, can we?”
“I’ve been looking forward to being called here to show off to Tetes-san and Sharon-san……♪”
“I heard it’s for parading female slaves around naked and ready for sex……”
“Wait, I……I’d be happy to live here naked from now on if you told me to!”
Wait. I didn’t say that. Conceptually, it does have a similar vibe, but it’s just for moving around while having sex in the air without any inhibitions. I didn’t say it was for that.
“Hoho. Now that I think about it, if you cram other women in there, it wouldn’t be over in an hour, would it♪”
“…………”
In a way, it might be correct as a test use, but.
