Volume 2, Chapter 3 – Bathing

Translator Note

1 chapter unlocked.

To be honest, sometimes Yumo really couldn’t understand just how much that old fellow Saibok had actually learned back at Sunlight Academy. It felt like, aside from being relatively weak, that old fellow knew how to do everything else!

His medical skills were good, his management abilities were strong, and he was even proficient in designing women’s clothing? Beyond that, he also understood soulology and architecture…

At this moment, inside the bath hall on the second floor of the log cabin, Yumo looked somewhat dumbfounded at the ‘faucet’ that was constantly pouring out hot water. To think he could single-handedly create such a bath system in the middle of nowhere; Little Sai was quite impressive~

And it was actually warm water? Did he even set up heating facilities?

Miss Yumo couldn’t help but have stars in her eyes as she showered Saibok with praise in her heart~

“This pool, hmmm,” it made her want to take a wash herself.

Glancing at her own black gauze dress which was stained with a few traces of blood, and then at the thing Saibok had brought that looked remarkably like body wash, Yumo couldn’t help but reveal a look full of interest. Actually, for some reason, Yumo had grown quite fond of bathing after turning into a girl, as she loved the feeling of her body being soaked in warm water. It was because of this that Yumo had been running up to Wantuzi Mountain to soak in the hot springs every now and then during this period. Of course, every time, those two girls Li Mo and Li Yu would always follow right behind her…

Once she finished helping the female lead wash, she would give herself a good cleaning too~

It just so happened that the scent of blood and the thick smell of gunpowder she had picked up back in the Garros Fortress made her extremely uncomfortable.

However, for now, the primary goal was to get the female lead cleaned up. Thinking of this, Yumo temporarily suppressed her urge to soak and raised her hand to lightly snap her fingers.

Subsequently, the silver-haired girl, wrapped in a surge of blood-colored Shadow Essence, slowly floated over to Yumo’s side, while Yumo herself gradually stood up. Looking at Mengxi’s exquisite sleeping face, Yumo couldn’t help but reveal a smile tinged with a bit of guilt.

Actually, Yumo still felt it was a bit strange to help the female lead bathe, considering her own identity…

Taking this into account, Yumo had thought about letting Li Yu help with the washing. However, she quickly abandoned that idea. After all, the faint holy aura on the female lead’s body was a power that Abyssal Demons absolutely loathed! It would uncontrollably trigger an Abyssal Demon’s ferocity and hostility.

Yumo was worried that if Li Yu touched this aura, she might lose control and instinctively launch an attack on the female lead… If some accident really happened then, wouldn’t she regret it to death?

Yumo was unwilling to let the female lead she had finally found disappear just like that… Although Li Yu was very well-behaved and obedient, Yumo chose to do it herself just to be safe.

No matter how one looked at it, she was a genuine girl now, so touching the female lead’s body shouldn’t count as any kind of desecration, right?

Thinking of this, Yumo smiled with relief and slowly raised her hands to remove Mengxi’s blood-stained knight’s skirt armor.

The moment she unfastened the outer garment, two snowy mounds lost their restraint and suddenly leaped into Yumo’s vision. However, Yumo, who was already mentally prepared, did not jump in shock. Besides, the current Miss Yumo had already begun to maintain a zen-like attitude as much as possible.

Ignoring the two snowy-white spheres, Yumo continued to undress the silver-haired girl, removing her dress, shoes, socks, and even unfastening that pure white underwear…

In an instant, Mengxi’s delicate and pure white, yet scar-covered body was displayed without reservation before Yumo. Although she was prepared, Yumo still couldn’t help but daze slightly after seeing such a perfect body, and a faint blush crept onto her pretty face.

‘Should I say she truly lives up to being the female lead?’

If one ignored those bloodstains, this body was truly perfect, with a willow-thin waist and a graceful figure. Not only was she well-endowed, but her skin was also enticing, with flawless white skin revealing a faint pinkish hue, as delicate as a baby’s.

Furthermore, those two snowy-white, rounded long legs would likely be a blessing for countless leg enthusiasts. And between those legs, that private area unique to a young maiden…

‘Uh…’ After a moment of dazing, Yumo awkwardly averted her gaze and began reciting Buddhist sutras in her mind.

Once she stabilized her mindset and tied up Mengxi’s hair, Yumo carefully picked up the naked, delicate body and placed it into the bath.

‘Sigh, this way, we’re more or less even, right?’

“You saw mine, and I saw yours? Besides, you’re more well-endowed than I am, so I’m not really losing out, right?”

Well, it was a total win~

Looking at Mengxi’s exquisite sleeping face, Yumo gave a playful smile. Subsequently, the girl activated the purification magic that had been prepared in the bath, beginning to disinfect Mengxi’s body and the wounds upon it. Due to the intense pain coming from the wounds, although Mengxi’s consciousness was still asleep, a trace of agony couldn’t help but surface on her beautiful face.

In response, Yumo raised her hand with a slight sense of apology and stroked Mengxi’s head. “It’s alright, the disinfection will be done in a moment.”

As she spoke, while Mengxi’s body was soaking and disinfecting in the bath, Yumo picked up the towel and shampoo she had prepared and moved behind Mengxi, intending to wash the blood and filth from the female lead’s long hair.

Right at that moment, Yumo’s brows twitched slightly as the door to the bathroom behind her slowly creaked open.

In the next moment, Yumo turned her gaze behind her with a touch of helplessness. She saw a small grey-haired girl with two little white birds standing on her head, timidly poking her small head through the crack of the door, looking at Yumo inside the bathroom with a pitiful expression.

And beneath the little girl’s feet, a snowy-white husky… ahem! A little white wolf also poked its head through the crack, mimicking the little girl’s pitiful expression as it looked at Yumo.

Needless to say, the little girl was Li Yu, and the little white wolf beside her was Li Mo, who had temporarily gone completely stupid mode.

Upon seeing the silver-haired girl inside the bath, Li Yu’s small hand hidden behind the door suddenly clenched tightly. However, the moment she met Yumo’s crimson pupils, Li Yu retracted the imperceptible chill in her eyes and pouted her small mouth, looking at Yumo aggrievedly.

To this, Yumo smiled helplessly. “It’s fine, Li Yu. You just need to take good care of your sister. Mommy can take care of this girl.”

‘This child is truly well-behaved, still thinking about helping me even now…’

“Then, Mother, are you personally helping her wash?” Moving her gaze to the towel and shampoo in Yumo’s hands, a look of deep dissatisfaction couldn’t help but appear on the little girl’s face. “Mother, you… you’ve clearly never helped us wash before, wuu wuu.”

“Ah, this,” Yumo was slightly at a loss for words, “You are all… you’re big kids now, right?”

“Isn’t this silver-haired sister an adult too?”

“Eh? But, she’s unconscious right now?”

“Wuwuwu, then… then I want to be unconscious too!” Li Yu said unhappily, her tone filled with a strong scent of jealousy and a hint of pettiness, while her emerald eyes couldn’t help but become glazed with moisture. “I want Mother to help me wash too!! Either that or Mother shouldn’t wash this sister! Just let me do it!”

“Li Yu, don’t be troublesome.”

“Wuwuwu, I don’t want to!”

“Eh?!” Seeing her little girl putting on an act that was both rowdy and about to burst into tears, Yumo couldn’t help but show a panicked expression.

Really, wasn’t this child always so well-behaved before? Why is she being so difficult now? Yumo’s mind was filled with confusion.

Could-could it be that she’s reached puberty? Has my child started her rebellious phase?

Such a guess couldn’t help but surface in Yumo’s mind. Speaking of which, how should one handle a child in their rebellious phase?! One shouldn’t just blindly give in, right?

But… meeting Li Yu’s endearing emerald eyes, Yumo fell into a deep state of inner conflict.

In the end, this soft-hearted “old mother” still couldn’t withstand her daughter’s gaze and chose to compromise. “Alright, alright. I’ll help you wash when I have time later. Be good, stop being difficult now,” Yumo said softly, trying to soothe Li Yu.

At this moment, because her attention was entirely focused on Li Yu, Yumo failed to notice that beside her, the slender index finger of the sleeping, beautiful silver-haired girl had already twitched slightly…
