Chapter 23: Washing Up
Lightning flashed, and the night rain suddenly fell.
The Nightmoon Tavern restaurant closed early, and the three sisters tidied up the place ahead of time, quietly waiting in the front hall for Elrose and Kendrick to return.
Stella squatted at the entrance, her small face filled with worry: “Why haven’t they come back yet? Something didn’t happen to them, did it?”
Lilith gently patted Stella’s head and said softly, “Don’t worry, with Kendrick accompanying them, what could possibly go wrong?”
Luna remained silent, quietly sitting to the side, munching on rice crackers while flipping through her magic book.
Raindrops pattered on the ground, and a cold wind blew, making the temperature seem to drop significantly.
Suddenly, two figures, one large and one small, appeared at the end of the street.
“Finally, they’re back.” Lilith sighed softly, “Stella, go get two hot towels.”
“Okay.” Stella nodded and ran upstairs.
Before long, Elrose and Kendrick rushed into the restaurant, looking like two drowned rats.
“Ah, this is ridiculous, why did it suddenly start raining?” Kendrick shook the water off himself, looking somewhat surprised, “Huh? Why did you close so early?”
“Uh… about that.” Lilith scratched the back of her head, looking a bit embarrassed.
“Many customers complained that Lilith’s cooking isn’t as good as yours, so they didn’t eat, so we decided to close early.” Luna said without even looking up from her magic book.
“Well, couldn’t you have said it a little more tactfully, Luna?” Lilith replied, “Can’t you give your big sister a bit of face?”
“What’s the big deal?” Luna said indifferently, “Anyway, you’ve decided not to be a chef anymore, so it doesn’t matter if your cooking isn’t great.”
“That’s true.” Kendrick nodded gently.
Although it’s unfortunate that Lilith’s cooking skills, honed over more than ten years, had to be abandoned, she had already decided to pursue the path of an adventurer, so he wouldn’t demand more from her in that regard.
“Achoo!”
A huge sneeze interrupted the conversation, and everyone turned slightly to see Elrose’s maid outfit completely soaked, revealing her light-colored underwear and pure white panties.
“Achoo!” Elrose’s small face flushed as she sneezed again, clear liquid instantly flowing from her nose.
“Are you okay, Angelic Onee-san?” At that moment, Stella came in with hot towels and quickly handed them to Elrose and Kendrick.
“I’m, I’m fine, Achoo!” Elrose hadn’t finished her sentence before sneezing again.
Kendrick casually wiped the rain off himself with the hot towel and said, “You guys should take Elrose upstairs to take a bath quickly; otherwise, she’ll catch a cold.”
“Bath?” Hearing this, Luna snapped her magic book shut and stood up suddenly, “If you’re talking about taking a bath, I’m interested.”
…
Nightmoon Tavern Restaurant, Second Floor.
“Little Belle, aren’t you shy?”
“I can shower alone.”
“Oh come on, you can’t wash properly alone, together I can help scrub your back.”
“I don’t need that!”
At the bathroom door, Elrose and Luna were grappling with each other.
Luna insisted on bathing with Elrose, but Elrose refused stubbornly.
Eventually, Elrose outmaneuvered Luna, pushing her outside and successfully locking the bathroom door.
“Ha.” Elrose breathed a sigh of relief.
Damn it, she’s a single virgin for hundreds of years.
Taking a bath by herself was already stimulating enough. If Luna came over and got too close, she might just faint on the spot.
In Kendrick’s house bathroom, upon entering there was a slightly larger washbasin filled with the three sisters’ toiletries.
On the wall beside it hung an apparently high-end showerhead, and at the far end of the bathroom was a small bathtub already filled with hot water.
This should be considered quite luxurious among commoners.
It was clear that Kendrick was quite generous in the daily needs of his three daughters.
Elrose gently sighed and slowly took off her soaked clothes.
Hairpin, top, skirt, white stockings…
As the last piece of covering fell away, the intense stimulus rushed through Elrose’s mind, and she quickly covered her eyes with her hands.
After a moment, Elrose slowly opened her eyes, peeking through her fingers.
Her fair and delicate skin seemed both soft and fragile, her small breasts like budding flowers in early spring, and her flat little belly had not an ounce of excess fat, while her long, slender legs were enticing beyond measure.
Oh gosh, this is too overwhelming.
I’m going to die, I’m going to die, I really am going to die.
At this rate, I might become the first girl to faint from my own embarrassment.
“Splash!”
Without saying a word, Elrose jumped straight into the bathtub.
The warm water instantly drove away the chill from her body, making her involuntarily let out a moan: “Ah, so comfortable.”
In that moment, Elrose forgot her worries and distractions, fully immersing herself in the bath.
Ah, it turns out the rumors about bathing being a way to cleanse the soul are true.
This is just too comfortable.
Elrose lay in the bathtub, her charming face filled with satisfaction.
But just then.
“Click, bang.”
The sound of a lock turning could be heard, and the bathroom door was suddenly pushed open. Luna, naked, walked in confidently.
“Yo, hello.” Luna tilted her head and grinned.
“Eh?” Elrose froze momentarily, then quickly covered her eyes again: “Ah! Why could you come in? I thought I locked the door!”
Luna smiled helplessly: “Oh my little Belle, you are too naive. This is my home; of course, I have a key. What good does locking the door do?”
“You, you, you…” Elrose said shyly, “Why do you have to bathe with me? Don’t you know that your actions are very perverted?”
“Perversion?” Luna smiled wickedly: “We’re all girls; what’s perverted about it? We’ve been bathing together since we were little.”
“Right, Stella?”
“Yeah!” Stella nodded vigorously behind Luna: “Kendrick said that bathing together can strengthen sisterly bonds.”
Suddenly hearing Stella’s voice, Elrose slightly opened her eyes, and through the gap between her fingers, she vaguely saw Lilith and Stella behind Luna taking off their clothes.
“Why are Lilith and Stella here too?” Elrose’s face instantly turned bright red, and she hurriedly turned her face away.
“What do you think? Of course, it’s to take a bath.” Lilith said matter-of-factly.
“Is it really necessary for us to bathe together?” Elrose’s eyes were tightly closed, not daring to open them at all.
“Oh come on, it’s no big deal, it’s just a bath together!”
“Exactly, little Belle, it’s just a bath together!”
“Wash clean, wash clean, let’s wash clean together!”
The footsteps of the three sisters grew closer and closer, and a seductive image unfurled in Elrose’s mind.
Ah ah ah!
Don’t pressure me!
I’m a gentleman; bathing with girls is…
I can’t control myself.
