Requiem Of A Failed Hero

Chapter 336 Hot Spring (2)

He looked at them blankly, but behind his emotionless expression was his glare begging for an answer without having to ask.

"Husbands? Lord Raven. Some young ladies have decided to not take any husband to serve you."

Raith's eyes went round. Now this was even worse than what he was thinking.

Some of them decided not to take a husband for the sake of serving him. Where? When? How?

How come all of this happened and he didn't know?

The lady looking at the surprise on his face laid with inquisition, explained further.

"Lady Slyvia and Lady Maria created a squad of ladies who will be in charge of your protection. While Lady Slyvia is in charge of their training to be battle masters, Lady Maria has been teaching us how to effectively take care of a man"

'Mariaaaaa!! What has Maria been teaching you?! And it just sounded like Slyvia just needed someone to train so desperately she didn't mind what she settled for'

But still, two of them coming together to do something like this was very rare. Especially with Slyvia's personality, it must have been very hard.

Raith sighed, he had no choice but to follow them.

'Since they set up a thing like this, I should at least honor their effort. I'll go there and tell them to disband the whole group thing.'

That was Raith's plan.

On getting to the hot spring. It was nestled to the east of the main settlement, a few minutes of walk covering over a hundred and 150 kilometers. They passed through a forest of fat white trees blessed with numerous branches and leaves that transition between yellow, brown, and golden hue depending on the reflection of the sunlight. It was one of the several wonders of this land.

Beyond the thick forest was the spring, erotic fog covered the whole place, drowning it in a mouth-watering, throat-drying mystery. The kind that made one want to eat but not want to eat food, there are several things to eat in this life, Raith had been eating food all his life. Would he finall–

Raith shook his head. Really, these thoughts.

He was all things but never a pervert.

'Is this the effect of the sin of greed too?'

He wondered as he slowly walked into the fog reaching inside it made things quite clear.

The fog was actually the steam of the hot water. Raith looked up at the waterfall.

'Did Slyvia make it hot with magic?'

He wondered, slowly bringing down his eyes to see the young ladies who were basking in the boiling river.

Truth be told, the finest young ladies of the settlement were the ones to be found here. Each of them with distinct yet commonly beautiful faces, different yet similarly clean skin, and eyes so gentle but could instantly switch to piercing darkness when the life of their master was on the line–it was what they were trained for after all.

"Lord Raven."

Maria rose from the waters not bothering to cover herself in any way. She was the purest at heart and always failed to consider several things, it was almost like she was intentionally provocative but she was just too free.

Raith closed his eyes immediately she rose, he had helped not to see it but a glimpse of her little-sized breast failed not to escape his eyes.

Even with them close, images of it still lingered.

"Damn put on some clothes Maria!"

He let out an earnest cry.

She then looked down at herself in shock, thinking she had done something wrong. This young lady didn't think Raith would find it offensive that she wasn't putting on anything, but she had done it, she wanted to pay her respects to Raith's present and forgot that she was naked.

"Pervert. Two perverts, you both her better suited for each other"

Slyvia said with a dark frown, glaring at Raith while the young lady that came with Raith Hana by the way put a towel over Maria.

They even now had a towel, several in fact, they also had other stuff coming through and it was all thanks to Min-Ho's father's contribution.

"Hai! You can open your eyes now Lord Raven. But you have to get used to this! These ladies will be bathing you every day. You can't close your eyes every time."

'She speaks like I'm a kid, I am not a kid Maria. I can have my own baths'

Raith stared at all of them in silence. Letting out a frustrating low groan he asked:

"Who is it that brought the idea of this?"

Maria's hand shot towards her back, to Slyvia who was resting on the rock of the hot spring.

.cοm Raith raised a brow.

"Slyvia?"

"Wait what?! You bitch! What did you say I did?"

Maria spoke like a cute doll.

"Well, you were the one that came to me saying you had something very important to discuss..." She continued, sheepishly rubbing her fingers and pouting like a baby.

"...and you said it would be a nice idea if we could put together a formidable team of girls who would personally look after Lord Raven."

"Yes! But I didn't mean like this?!!"

She was beginning to get flustered. Raith stared at the two of them in disbelief.

It was just so hard to believe that Slyvia would be a part of this. He had thought she had a profound hatred towards him since their first encounter wasn't particular uhm...

Fighting her naked was never his intent. He was just unprepared.

Come to think of it, now that his ties to the abyss are cut, he doesn't have the devourer skill anymore. That was some sort of a relief at the same time it wasn't. But Raith tried to dead other thoughts of regret and focused solely on the good things the absence of the abyss would do to him.

Seeing the judgemental eyes that Raith stared at her with even made her crazy more.

"Don't you dare think that this was my idea! Mariaaa!! What do you think you are doing?!"

While Slyvia was incredibly furious, Maria giggled.

Raith naturally figured that this was Maria's thing. It didn't look like something Slyvia would have thought of. contemporary romance

"Master Raven... please get into the water."

Hana said to him with a towel folded on her arms as she bowed.

Raith looked at all of them as they rose from the water not minding the fact that they were naked and with all sizes of breasts. They bowed their head as they waited for Raith to step inside.

Maria invited him in with a smile and Slyvia with a death glare... as always.
