を泣かせると言ったハプニングがあった後もしばらくはギルバートとバルバロトの二人と鍛錬に励んだ。
大量の汗をかいたレオルドは公爵邸に備えられている浴場で汗を流すことにした。
「久しぶりに一緒に入りましょう」
「ふぁっ!?」
「こ、子供の頃なら分かりますが、私はもう十六歳なのですよ!? 母上と一緒に入るような歳ではありません!」
「でも、久しぶりに貴方の背中を流してあげたいのだけれど、ダメかしら?」
「そう......わかったわ。貴方がそこまで言うのなら今日は諦めるわね」
(今日はって明日もお願いしに来るつもりかーいっ!)
オリビアの言葉に内心で盛大にツッコミ入れるレオルドは疲労からか溜息をこぼしてしまう。
この疲れを癒す為にも早く風呂へと入ろうとレオルドはフラフラしながら使用人に付いて行った。
脱衣所に着いたレオルドは手早く服を脱いで行き、公爵邸のだだっ広い浴場へと足を進めた。ゲームで見た事ある古代ローマ式お風呂にレオルドは童心が蘇る。
(おっと、いかんいかん。つい、はしゃぎたくなるが、先に身体を洗わねばな!)
レオルドはベタベタしている身体を洗おうとした時、風呂場に誰かが入ってくる。誰だろうかと顔を向けるが、湯気で分からない。
「お背中を流しに参りました」
「あ? その声はイザベルか。一人で出来るからいらん。さっさと帰れ」
「仕事だからとかそんな事なら気にしなくていい。そもそも俺は一人で風呂に入りたいんだ。だから、早く出ていけ」
既に真後ろにまで来ているイザベルに向かってレオルドは冷たく突き放す。しかし、イザベルも負けじと反論する。
「では、せめてお背中だけでも流させてくれませんか?」
「あのなぁ......別にいいって言ってるだろ」
「お願いします。背中を洗ったら出ていきますので」
「はぁ〜......わかった。背中だけ頼む」
「はいっ!」
ズルズルと問答を繰り返すのが面倒になったレオルドは背中だけ洗う事を許可した。喜ぶイザベルにレオルドは呆れ果てる。
(何が嬉しいんだろうか......)
さっさと終わらせようとレオルドは頭を洗い始めて、背中をイザベルに任せる。そしたら、背中に痛みが走り、爪が当たった事を知ったレオルドはイザベルに怒鳴り声を上げる。
「お前、わざわざこんな嫌がらせをする為に......あひゅっ?」
「ご、ごめんなさい、レオルド。ちょっと失敗しちゃった」
思わず逃げるレオルドだが、慌てていたせいで何故か落ちていた石鹸を踏んづけてしまい派手に転んでしまう。不運な事に後頭部を強打して、意識を失ってしまった。最後に聞いたのはオリビアの叫び声であった。
目が覚めたレオルドは勢い良く飛び起きる。いつの間にか、私室のベッドで寝ていたのだ。勿論、全部覚えている。
恐らくだが、オリビアはイザベルを利用してレオルドの入浴中に突撃してきたのだろう。そして、イザベルが話してオリビアが実行する。足音で気付いてもおかしく無かっただろうが、そこはイザベルがオリビアに合わせていた。才能を発揮する場所を間違えてはいるが、オリビアの目論見は見事に達成された。
しかし、最後にオリビアは失敗した。久しぶりに愛息子の背中を洗っていたら爪を立ててしまったのだ。痛みにより、振り返ったレオルドに全部バレてしまった。
だが、レオルドの方が驚いてしまい、後ずさった時に踏んづけてしまった石鹸により派手に転んで後頭部を強打してしまい意識を失ったのだ。
そうここまではレオルドが覚えている範囲だ。しかし、その先はオリビアとイザベルしか知らない。
イザベルはオリビアの悲鳴を聞いて風呂場に戻って来て、レオルドが倒れておりオリビアが抱えているのを目撃する。
何があったかは分からないイザベルだが、大方レオルドがオリビアに気が付いてビックリして転げたのだろうと推測する。大正解だ。イザベルの推測は百点満点である。
一先ずイザベルはオリビアと意識を失っているレオルドに駆け寄り、状況の確認をする。
「何があったのですか?」
「レオルドが私に驚いて、後ずさったら石鹸を踏んでしまって転けちゃったの。その時に頭を強く打ったらしくて......」
「ふむ......」
イザベルはレオルドが生きている事を確認してオリビアを安心させる。
「ご安心を。レオルド様は生きておりますので、奥様は何も心配しなくても大丈夫です。それよりも、先に身体を洗って差し上げましょう。その後、着替えさせてベッドに運びましょうか」
「それは良い考えね!」
年頃の男の子にとっては耐え難い事であった。知らない内に身体を洗われており、着替えまでさせられている。つまり、全身余すことなく見られているのだ。
レオルドはその事実を知り、枕に顔を埋めて獣のように唸り声を上げた。
「ぐおおおおおっ!!! 殺せっ! 殺してくれぇぇぇえええええ!!!」
ちなみにオリビアはレオルドの成長具合に喜んでいた。
「あらあら、まあまあ。うふふ、立派に成長したわね、レオルド」
後にイザベルからこの話を聞いてレオルドは喜怒哀楽の全ての感情を失った。
Even after the incident that made his mother Olivia cry, Leolde trained with Gilbert and Barbaroto for a while.
After sweating profusely, he decided to go to the bathhouse in the duke's mansion to  remove  sweat.
"It's been a while since we' bathed together ."
"Huh?
"I can understand if  i was a child, but I am already 16 years old! I'm  can't  go in with , you "!
"But I would like to wash your back for the first time in a long time, can't I?
"So ...... I understand. I'll give up for today if that's what you want."
(Today, you mean you're going to come back tomorrow to do it? )
Olivia inwardly tweets at him, and he sighs from exhaustion.
In order to relieve his fatigue, he decided to take a bath as soon as possible, and followed the servant in a daze.
When he arrived at the dressing room, he quickly took off his clothes and walked into the spacious bathing room of the Duke's house . The ancient Roman-style baths that he had seen in video games brought back his childhood memories.
(Oops, no. I'm tempted to get excited, but I have to wash my body first!)
As he was about to wash his sticky body, someone came into the bathroom. . He turned his head to see who it was, but couldn't make out the steam.
"I'm here to wash your back.
"Oh? Is that Isabell? I don't need it, I can do it by myself. Just go  back ."
"If it's because of work or something like that, don't worry about it. I want to take a bath by myself. So get out of here."
Leolde coldly shunned Isabel, who was already right behind  him. However, Isabelle also refutes his request to go back .
"So can you at least let me  wash your back?"
"You know, ......, I said it's fine.
"I'm begging you. I'll wash your back and then I'll leave."
"Huh. ...... Okay. Just my back, please."
"Yes!"
Leolde, who was tired of repeating the same  thing  over and over again, allowed  her to wash only  his back.  He was taken aback by Isabelle's joy.
(Why you so haapy about it ? ......)
In order to get the job done quickly, Leolde  started to wash his head and let Isabelle take care of his back. When he realized that his back was sore and his fingernails had hit it, he shouted at Isabelle.
"You wanted to do this just  for  harass me like this?
"I'm sorry, Leorde. I messed up a little."
Leolde  runs away without a second  OF thought, but in his haste, he somehow steps on a piece of soap that had fallen and falls down spectacularly. Unfortunately, he hit his head and lost consciousness. The last thing he heard was Olivia's scream.
When he woke up, Leolde jumped up with great force. Before he knew it, he was asleep in his bed in his private room. Of course, he remembered everything.
Perhaps Olivia had taken advantage of Isabell to assault him while he was bathing. And then Isabel talks and Olivia does it. It would not have been surprising if she had noticed the footsteps, but that is where Isabell matched Olivia. Olivia's plan was successfully accomplished, although she was in the wrong place to  do it .
But in the end, Olivia failed. While washing her beloved son's back for the first time in a long time, she scratched her nails. The pain made it all too obvious to Leoldo, who looked back at her.
However, Leolde was more startled, and when he backed away, he stepped on the soap, which caused him to fall and hit the  head so hard that he lost consciousness.
That was as far as Leold4  remembered. However, only Olivia and Isabel know what happened after that .
Isabel heard Olivia's scream and came back to the bathroom, where she saw Leolde lying on the floor, with Olivia holding him.
Isabel doesn't know what happened, but she guesses that Leolde must have been startled when he noticed Olivia and fell down. That's a good guess.
First of all, Isabel ran to Olivia and the unconscious Leolde to check the situation.
"What happened?"
"Leolde was startled by me, and when he ran away, he stepped on the soap and fell. He hit his head pretty hard. .....".
"Hmm. ......""
Isabel reassured Olivia by confirming that Leolde was alive.
Don't worry. Master Leolde is alive, so you don't need to worry about anything. Let's wash him first. After that, let's get  him dressed and take  him to bed.
"That's a good idea!"
This was unbearable for a boy of his age. Before he knew it, his body was being washed and he was even being changed. In other words, he was being watched all over.
When Leolde learned this fact, he buried her face in pillow and roared like a beast.
"UUUUGH!! Kill me  kill me!"
Olivia, by the way, was pleased with how much LeoLde had grown.
l"You've grown up so well, Leolde."
Later, when Isabelle told him  what happened , he  felt empty .
