“Ah, there you are. Sorry, do you have a moment?”
“Hna…?”
Yuugo turned his head, figuring that was about him, and saw a boy he never saw before.
Perhaps it would be rude to say so, but this was a boy without any distinctive characteristics. And as Yuugo and the others looked at him, his expression turned a little awkward as he introduced himself.
“Ah… Nice to meet you, I guess? My name is Avado, and I’m a first year like you. I’m in the room next to yours.”
“Ooh, I see! Nice to meet you neighbor!”
“So? Did you come here just to say hello?”
“Ah, no, that’s not it. After talking with other students in this dormitory, we agreed that I’d guide you around. I’d like to show you the main facilities right away, so do you have time now?”
“Now? Sorry, I’m cleaning dishes, and my friends are here. Can we leave that for some other time?”
“Don’t say that! I’m pretty busy, and I can’t really find the time. I’d like to get it over with now! Okay? Okay!?”
“H-hm…?”
It seemed a little forceful, or rather, frantic, so Yuugo felt something was off about Avado.
Marcos and Phi seemed to agree, but since it did not seem he would back down easily, Marcos sighed and spoke.
“All right then. Yuugo, I will clean the rest with Phi. You go with him and have your tour of the dormitory.”
“Eh? Are you sure?”
“A quick tour should not take long. I will explain your absence to the others, so finish it quickly.”
“Okay. Thanks Marcos.”
Thanks to Marcos’ help, Yuugo now had the time, and for some reason, no one was happier about it than Avado.
Yuugo still thought it was strange, but felt it was wrong to doubt the person willing to guide him, who then turned to him with a smile.
“Follow me. It won’t take long at all, so you can relax.”
Yuugo waved to Marcos and Phi, and left the communal kitchen, following Avado to start the tour of the fifth dormitory.
―――――――――――――――
The tour was pretty loose, so it seemed Avado was right, and it would not take long.
The fifth dormitory was not at all luxurious to begin with, and had few locations to introduce, so they quickly moved from one place to the other.
There was a place where students gathered and talked. Toilets that were there in addition to the ones in the rooms. A laundry area with magic energy operated washing machines and dryers. A study room with books like dictionaries.
After seeing it all, Yuugo was taken to the dining hall, where a small accident happened.
“This is the dining hall. Meals are prepared in the morning and night, so check the times and don’t forget to come here and eat.”
“Ah, got it. Three meals a day…! It makes me want to cry…!!”
Yuugo had been buying food in the cafeteria, so life in a dormitory seemed heavenly.
Not only did he have a roof and walls, but even someone preparing meals. And as he felt emotional and grateful, something cold hit his back.
“Uph!? C-cold!? What!?”
“Wawawa! S-sorry! My hand slipped…!!”
Yuugo was too distracted by his emotions to have noticed a student behind him, who spilled a drink on his back.
Both his uniform and the shirt below it were wet, and the cold Yuugo felt made him grimace. Avado and the other student reacted to this.
“This is bad! Take it off, we need to wash it!”
“I’ll do it, it was my fault! The washing machines and dryers should be free right now, so it shouldn’t take long!”
“How about you go take a bath while you wait, Yuugo? I was just about to take you to the large public bath.”
“Eh? N-no. I appreciate the thought, but my friends are waiting, and I just need to get changed…”
“No no! Come on!”
“Ah, hold on! Listen! Wha!?”
Yuugo had no intention of taking a bath at this time of the day, but Avado and the other student ignored him and took him to the public bath.
After stripping him and throwing him in the bath, Avado also took off his clothes, and enjoyed this very early bath with Yuugo.

I know it isnt, but I really wish that bath is a kiva reference.

~~~TOKUSATSU REFERENCE TIME~~~
So this Avado fellow here, he was named after Kamen Rider Abaddon from Kamen Rider Zero-One: REAL×TIME.
In fact, every student in this dorm are all named after mass produced dark riders.
That is definitely suspicious, they aren’t planning to attack him while he is in the bath, are they?
