A Sweltering Eternal Getaway - Chapter 3: Quality Time at the Inn - Episode 4
After the bath, Seofon and company find a table tennis table in another part of the inn. Seofon faces (Captain) and Feower in a match, with a special electric massage as the penalty for losing. In the end, Seofon loses the game, but when Mona, the massage therapist, tells them up to four people can join, Seofon drags (Captain), Feower, and the unsuspecting Seox with him for the massage.
Seofon: Huh? Do you hear something?
After a long soak in the hot springs, Seofon is walking down a corridor when he hears a tapping noise.
Curious, he walks toward the sound and finds a leisure space where a table tennis table is set up.

Threo: Take that!
Lyria: Hah!
Threo: Rrrah!
Threo: Yaaay! Another point for me!

Fif: No, the other team got the point, Threo! The ball needs to bounce on the table or you lose!
Threo: What, really? I lost? Darn, this is harder than I thought...
Seofon: Aren't things lively in here! I had no idea there was a place to play table tennis.
Gran is the Main Character
Feower: Interesting. Why don't we join them, (Captain)?
Djeeta is the Main Character
Feower: Interesting. Allow me to join you, (Captain).
Lyria: Oh, everyone's here! My game just ended, so feel free to use my paddle!
Seofon: Thanks, Lyria.
Feower: What are the rules for this game? I assume it's not simply returning the ball.
Fif: Here, I'll teach you! Maybe you should listen one more time too, Threo! So, you see, for table tennis...
Feower: I see. In other words, you hit the ball into your opponent's court.
Seofon: All right, let's get this started! (Captain). Feower. Why don't the two of you go against me?
Feower: Heh, you seem rather confident.
Seofon: Maybe I am.
(This is my chance to show my prowess as a grown-up!)
(This is my chance to show my prowess as a grown-up!)
Feower: Hm.
Feower notices something and his lips curl mischievously.
Feower: Still, there's no fun in competing for nothing, is there? Why don't we decide on a penalty for losing?
Seofon: Excellent idea! What should we make the penalty? Putting on a silly show for everyone?
Feower: How about that over there?
Feower points to a sign that says "Electric massage! Special Spartan plan available!"
Seofon: You can't be serious...
Feower: Oh? Not feeling so confident anymore?
Seofon: Ahaha, don't be silly!
(Crap! I should've asked someone to be on my team too!)
(Crap! I should've asked someone to be on my team too!)
Seofon: Heh, I just have to win, right? Easy. Are the two of you sure you're going to be all right?
Feower: Of course. We're ready for this!
Feower shoots a determined look at Seofon, gripping a paddle in each hand.
Threo: Whoa! That's smart, Feower! I didn't think of that!
Fif: Twin paddles? Is that allowed?
Well, Seofon seems pretty confident in himself so maybe it's only fair.
Well, Seofon seems pretty confident in himself so maybe it's only fair.
Seofon: Hahaha, now we're talking! Then let's begin!
And so begins an epic table tennis match of Seofon versus (Captain) and Feower.
Feower: Huff... Huff...
Seofon: Pant... Pant...
Lyria: This is intense... The match's never-ending!
Fif: You have to have at least a two-point difference to win, so they just keep going and going! Now it's twenty versus twenty-one.
Feower: Impressive.
Seofon: Well, I'm not the leader for... nothing!
Feower: Augh!
As the two are conversing, Seofon launches the ball into the opposite court. The ball bounces and flies just past Feower's reach.
Fif: One point for Seofon! That's twenty-one versus twenty-one!
Feower: Hold on a minute. That wasn't fair!
Seofon: Oh, come on. Taking someone by surprise is a classic strategy!
Feower: Tch... Shut up and wipe that smile off your face, you coward! It's time I stepped up my game and completely destroyed you!
Feower: (Captain)! Let's hurry up and win this so this fool can grovel in agony before us!
Choose: Okay!
Choose: We're gonna win this!
Seofon: Won't be that easy, I'm... afraid!
Feower: You think I'd fall for the same thing twice!
Seofon: Wouldn't have expected any... less!
Gran is the Main Character
(Captain): ...!
Djeeta is the Main Character
(Captain): ...!
Seofon: Wha!
(Captain) makes a sharp volley. The ball just grazes the table before slipping past Seofon and bouncing onto the floor.
Fif: One point for (Captain) and Feower! Twenty-one versus twenty-two!
Feower: If we get the next one, victory's ours!
Seofon: You're not getting past me again!
Feower: It's our turn to serve! Take this!
The moment Feower releases the ball onto the table, an intense battle ensues.
Feower counters Seofon's unpredictable hits with his wide, two-paddle defense, while (Captain) unleashes smash after smash.
Seofon: How about this!
Feower: Ack!
Seofon makes his move first and hits the ball to the side. The ball spins fiercely and ricochets off the table in an entirely different direction.
Threo: Whoooa! What is happening?
Lyria: Ooh, is it going to be a tie again?
Feower: Not so fast!
Feower kicks off from the floor, diving under the ball before it touches the ground.
Feower: I'll finish this here! Memento Mori!
The twin blade-wielder reaches as far as he can, catching the ball just before it hits the floor. He flicks the ball toward the table.
Threo: Let's gooo!
Lyria: I hope it goes in!
Seofon: You're a persistent one, aren't you? But this next one's going to be the last—
Seofon: Wait...
The ball sails across the table and hits the tape of the net. It rolls over the net and slowly falls into Seofon's court.
Seofon: Wait a second! Waaait a second!
Seofon sends his paddle flying in a last attempt to reach the ball, but to no avail. The ball bounces onto the court and rolls across the table.
Feower: Pant... Pant... We did it! We won!
Lyria: Yaaay! Congratulations, (Captain)! Feower!
Seofon: Hold on now! You're actually going to count that? That wasn't fair at all!
Feower: Please. Weren't you the one who tried to distract us by talking just a moment ago? Get over here.
(Captain) and Feower grin at each other as they push Seofon over to the massage booth.
Seofon: Aah... Wait, my stomach... It's not feeling so good...
Feower: We're not letting you off the hook that easily.
Seofon: No, I didn't think you would... Ohoho...
Mona: Oh? What a coincidence, (Captain)! Good evening!
Choose: Mona! What're you doing here?
Mona: Oh, that's right. I never told you, did I? I'm visiting the hot spring district to teach people about massaging!
Mona: I happen to have extra time today, so I decided to give some massages myself.
Mona: See? The "Electric Massage: Spartan Plan!"
Feower: Ah, that's perfect. This man says he'd like to try the Spartan plan. I leave him in your hands.
Mona: Certainly! One Spartan plan, coming right up!
Seofon: Wait, is this really going to be okay? Electric? Spartan? It doesn't sound very safe to me...
Mona: It does sting a bit so there are some people who need a break in the middle...
Mona: But you'll be back to being one-hundred percent by morning! It's sure to blow all the fatigue in your body away, so don't worry!
Seofon: People ask for a break? From a massage? That sounds bad!
Feower: Don't tell me you're getting cold feet? And you call yourself the leader of the Eternals.
Mona: Hm, but to be honest, this plan is best suited for four people. To only have one person participate is quite a waste.
Feower: What?
Seofon: In that case, perfect!
Seofon grabs (Captain) and Feower by their arms and pulls them over to stand in front of Mona.
Gran is the Main Character
Feower: What do you think you're doing? Let go of me!
Djeeta is the Main Character
Feower: What do you think you're doing? Let go of me!
Seofon: Ms. Therapist, these two would like to join as well!
Mona: You got it! That's a Spartan plan for three then!
Feower: Wha! Then what's the point of a penalty?
Mona: Aww, you mean you don't want to try it? I hate to boast, but my massage plan is quite popular, you know.
Mona: Don't you want to relax with a nice massage, (Captain)? I'm sure you do, don't you, Mr. Erune?
Feower: Er, no, I'll just...
Mona: You do, don't you?
Feower: (I can sense it... Things are going to be really bad if I refuse!)
Feower: Yes, I... do...
Mona: Hehe. Look forward to it then! We do have space for one more person though.
Seox: Some people just came barging into my room, saying they're going to get my bed ready! What is their problem?
Seofon: Seox! You came at just the right time!
Seox: What?
Mona: I guess that'll be the fourth participant! Let's start then, shall we?
Seox: Wait, what's starting? Seofon, explain!
Seofon: You'll find out soon enough!
Seox: Huh? Stop! What're you doing? Let me go!
