The Paradise of Reincarnation Begins with Eriri.

The two sat in separate corners, not saying a word. Eriri, being extremely nearsighted, could only peek over and see a blurry black shadow. She couldn't even distinguish between a face and a man or woman, let alone a face, so of course she wouldn't blush or feel her heart race.

Da da da.

The sound of wooden clogs stepping on the bluestone slabs came from afar.

"Huh?!"

Eriri panicked immediately and quickly turned to look:

"Someone else has come to soak in the hot springs?"

This is a women's bathhouse, so there's no doubt that the footsteps belonged to a woman.

If the other party sees Kiyono... they'll definitely call the police!

Putting myself in their shoes, if I were soaking in a hot spring and suddenly discovered a strange person of the opposite sex hiding in the pool, I would definitely call the police without hesitation and let the other person be punished by law.

Splash!

Water splashes.

Eriri gritted her teeth and quickly stood up:

"no!"

"We absolutely cannot let that idiot Seino be discovered!"

"Is there any way to escape using the Substitution Jutsu? So... so I have no choice but to use my body to cover for them..."

Eriri blushed, covered her body with a towel, and quickly walked towards Kiyono Makoto.

"……What's wrong?"

Kiyono Makoto quickly opened his eyes.

"Shut up, don't say anything." Eriri lowered her voice, her tone tense. "I heard the sound of wooden clogs. Someone is coming to soak in the hot spring. You'll hide in the water later. If you need to breathe, just breathe secretly behind me. It would be bad if someone found out."

"understood."

Kiyono Makoto nodded slightly, earnestly agreeing, but his gaze involuntarily fell on Takumi.

Even though the light in the corner was dim, and even the moonlight couldn't reach her, the girl's snow-white skin was still clearly visible; she truly deserved to be called the most outstanding fair-skinned girl.

Noticing Kiyono Makoto's gaze, Eriri glared at him, her little fangs peeking out from the corner of her mouth.

"Clear the field of perverts! Don't look around!"

"Actually, there's nothing much to see..."

"what?!"

Eriri suddenly raised her voice, her eyes filled with murderous intent.

Makoto Kiyono simply admitted his mistake:

"I'm sorry, Eriri-sama is so cute, I got me captivated by her."

"Tch, even a primary school student wouldn't believe such a perfunctory answer!"

Eriri puffed out her pink cheeks and instinctively raised her foot to step on someone, but unfortunately her eyesight wasn't very good, and with the hot spring water constantly rising and falling, she ended up stepping on something strange.

good news.

There was no misstep.

bad news.

My foot slipped.

"Huh... what is that?"

Eriri looked blankly at the unfamiliar sensation under her feet, a field she had never explored before.

"..."

Kiyono Makoto's body tensed abruptly, and he looked up in disbelief.

Eyes facing each other.

The air suddenly became quiet.

"...!!!"

A sudden flash of insight struck Eriri; she hurriedly lifted her right foot, white steam rising from the top of her head.

"Fool!"

"satyr!"

"hentai!"

"..."

Kiyono Makoto's expression was incredibly complex, and his tone was low and somber:

"I was sitting still and didn't move at all. You suddenly stepped on me. No matter how you look at it, I'm the victim, right?"

"No way!"

Eriri glared at her, both embarrassed and angry, even her neck turning a blush:

"Forget everything that just happened, you idiot! Say another word and you're dead!"

"..."

Da da da.

The sound of wooden clogs had reached the corner of the passageway.

Kiyono Makoto dared not delay and quickly submerged into the hot spring.

"call……"

Eriri took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the shame that made her want to turn around and run away, and bent down to sit down, deliberately leaving a small space behind her back for Kiyono Makoto to breathe secretly.

"They've come in...who could it be?"

Eriri was torn. She hoped it was her seniors or others so she wouldn't have to worry about exposing the crisis, but she also hoped it was just ordinary tourists so she could avoid embarrassment.

Unfortunately, Zhai Li wasn't wearing her glasses, so she couldn't see who it was at all.

"Hey, you still have guests so late?"

A gentle and pleasant voice rang out.

"...is a stranger."

Eriri's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, suddenly died.

"Mommy, I want to play with the little boat."

A soft, sweet little girl's voice followed immediately.

"Oh no... there are even children here."

Eriri couldn't help but feel nervous.

Adults are fine; they all have a sense of propriety and distance. But it's different for children. Some children even swim around in the hot spring... If they find that idiot Seino, they'll definitely yell at him!

"Hello, guest, I'm the innkeeper." The woman's gentle voice rang out, clearly noticing Zhai Li's presence. "You're a tourist from out of town, aren't you?"

Eriri coughed lightly twice and responded softly:

"Hello, we are students who came from Tokyo for vacation."

"You're actually guests from Tokyo, that's impressive." The woman's voice was gentle. "I've been to Tokyo a few times before, it's a huge metropolis, completely different from Hachijojima."

"Sister is amazing!"

The little girl's soft, sweet voice followed.

The woman was clearly outgoing and couldn't stop talking once she started.

Eriri was a little nervous at first, but after chatting for a while, she gradually relaxed.

While strolling around the island today, I encountered many enthusiastic middle-aged women. I guess there are too few people on the island, so the locals are very welcoming, unlike the coldness of Tokyo.

at the same time.

Kiyono Makoto hid behind Takumi, with only his head above water, listening to the casual conversation while holding his breath and trying to minimize his presence.

In the misty fog, an annoying buzzing sound suddenly entered my ears.

"Are there mosquitoes?"

Kiyono Makoto frowned slightly and quickly noticed a grayish-white mosquito in mid-air.

Just then, the mosquito swooped down and quietly landed on Eriri's back.

An ugly gray mosquito landed on the girl's snow-white skin, looking particularly conspicuous.

Unfortunately, Eriri was chatting with a random lady and didn't notice the mosquito landing on her.

"...Should we help the jujube cage? What about the jujube cage?"

Seeing that the mosquito was about to start sucking blood, Kiyono Makoto hesitated for a second, then quietly reached out his right hand from the water and dropped it like lightning.

Snapped.

Because the force was deliberately controlled, the sound was not noticeable.

But Eriri's reaction was extremely strong.

"what--"

The girl's exclamation suddenly rang out, exceptionally loud.

The boy's large hand suddenly landed on her back, and since she wasn't wearing any clothes, Eriri was so startled she almost jumped out of the water.

"Hey, what's wrong with the guest?"

The gentle and graceful Mrs. E was already crying out in confusion.

"I...I'm fine..."

Eriri gritted her teeth, her pretty face flushed, and stammered an embarrassed explanation:

I just got bitten by a mosquito.
