Part 6 – Do Your Best! Hyakurath!

The imperial capital of Vatlantis Empire, Zeltis. The lodging of the  imperial guards was inside the palace that was located at the heart of  the capital. The captain of imperial guards’ first unit, Hyakurath was  sighing melancholically in the changing room of her own room. When her  ponytail was untied, her soft and wavy blonde hair spread out gently.  But her expression was gloomy in contrast to that bright hair color.

「I wonder why things aren’t going well……」

Just now, a training match between imperial guard units was held  inside the palace. The first unit under Hyakurath’s leadership faced  Mercuria’s second unit──but, the result was miserable.

「I have to make everyone train even more seriously……the first unit has to be stronger than the other units.」

Even though she should have prepared proper training menu for her unit, the result was not very good.

「Is there bad influence because Mercuria’s second unit is lackadaisical just as I thought?」

Human would choose the easiest path no matter what. Furthermore,  recently the result that the second unit produced was great. It made her  slackened down, thinking that if the easier method increased the result  then that was fine.

It was even more problematic that the captain Mercuria was also irresponsible.

「Even though I need to have her take a look at some important  documents……she is playing around too today and I can’t find her at all.  This won’t make a good example to the troops like this.」

Because of that Hyakurath was the one doing the desk work that  originally should be Mercuria’s work. Even so the work kept piling up,  and Hyakurath’s anxiety kept increasing in proportion. The stress had  nowhere to go inside her and it clouded her mind.

「No, I need to be firm……the first unit has to keep discipline no matter what and also diligent in training.」

──But, will everyone follow me?

Hyakurath lightly slapped her cheeks and brought her face closer to the mirror.

──No. Don’t be weak, Hyakurath.

She lightly clenched her fists and talked to herself at the mirror.

「Do your best! Hyakurath!」

She smiled widely, unbuttoned her imperial guard uniform, and  stripped. When she became stark naked, she headed toward the bathroom.

She opened the bathroom’s door and the steam inside rushed toward her. The faint scent of herb soothed her feeling.

The bathtub inside was spacious where even two people could easily  stretch their legs inside. She submerged her body inside the bathtub and  a sigh naturally leaked out from her mouth.

「Haaa……♪」

She pushed the switch at the edge of the bathtub with a happy  expression. Then a pulse of magic power reverberated through the whole  bathtub. The hot water bubbled like Jacuzzi and massaged Hyakurath’s  body.

「Nn……fuaaan. Aa, nn……feels, good♥」

It made her wanted to hum from how good it felt.

「♪Funfun~do your best~Hyakurath. It’s fine, you can do it if it’s you♪ Do your best do your best──」

The bathroom’s door suddenly opened.

「You’re in a good mood there, Hyakurath.」

「Kyaaa! Mercuria!? W-why are you in someone else’s room, no, in their bathroom!?」

「Haha, I’m thinking to give you some relaxation to thank you for your hard work everyday. I’ll wash your back.」

「You’re spoiling my relaxing time! Stupiddd!」

Do your best, captain of Vatlantis Empire’s Imperial Guard first unit Hyakurath.
