"Hey, Nimnim! Don't be so disrespectful to Master!"
Aleshia scolded Nimela.
"Okay~"
Nimela replied with a smile. She was totally sincere about it. Not. That was sarcasm.
"Hey, Aezel. Aren't you gonna put her down?"
Lawrend couldn't help but say to her. Aezel had the little catgirl on her shoulder for a while. It was not mentioned, but earlier, Aleshia passed the little catgirl to her.
"Oh my, I forgot."
Aezel chuckled before she laid down the little catgirl on one of the beds.
"What is that? A demihuman?"
Only then did Nimela notice the little catgirl.
"She was being tortured by the Blood Flower Assassin Organization when Master saved her."
Aleshia explained to her.
"Torture!?"
Nimela exclaimed in shock.
"Big Sister, what's torture?"
Ella asked Aleshia curiously.
"It means some bad guys gave her lots of pain."
Aleshia rubbed Ella's head. It was not good for Ella to know the exact details about it with her young age.
"Pain?"
Ella walked to the side of the bed and rubbed the little catgirls head. She could sympathize with her since she had a curse before that also gave her extreme pain.
"The Young Master is really nice."
Ella said with emotion on her face. Lawrend helped her be free from her curse, and now he just did the same to someone else. In her eyes, Lawrend was turning into a saintly figure.
"Nghh…"
The little catgirl furrowed her eyebrows in her sleep. It looked like she was having nightmares.
"It's okay, little catgirl."
Aleshia went over and held the little catgirl's hands before massaging it.
"Aleshia, do you want to take care of her?"
Lawrend asked her. After all, she looked like a perfect fit for taking care of the little catgirl.
"Yes."
Aleshia nodded her head resolutely.
"Eldest sister…"
The little catgirl murmured in her sleep.
"She's missing her eldest sister."
Ella said to them. She could deeply relate to her as she also loves her big sister.
"Yes. I'll take care of her. Can you get me some clothes that will fit her, Nimnim?"
Aleshia nodded her head before she turned her head to Nimela and asked.
"Okay, Big Sister!"
Nimela responded with a nod and left the room.
"Anyways, is there a bath here?"
Lawrend asked them as he looked around the room for a door to a bathroom.
"Yes, Master. Elena, can you lead Master?"
Aleshia was the one to respond. She ordered Elena who was free.
"No problem. Follow me, Master."
Elena urged Lawrend with her. She led him to a door at the end of the room.
"This is a small bathhouse specifically for us."
Elena opened the door and led the way inside. There was a small raised pool that can fit 5 people with warm water. The hot steam from the water rose into the air and created a fog inside the bathhouse.
"This is a really nice place."
Lawrend murmured with a smile on his face. Seeing a bathhouse with warm water put a smile on his face. The bath in the other inn was just a bucket filled with water.
"Alright. I'll take a bath here. Can you wash my clothes for me, Elena?"
Lawrend turned around and said to her.
"Sure, Master!"
Elena was overjoyed hearing Lawrend's words.
"Thank you, Elena."
Lawrend smiled at her.
"Don't worry about it, Master! I'll grow bigger soon too, so please prepare yourself."
Elena said to him with a meaningful smile.
"Prepare?"
Lawrend blinked his eyes at her. Was he imagining things? Elena is saying such suggestive things.
"Ehehehe. Then, I'll leave Master here."
Elena giggled before she left the bathhouse and closed the door.
"Oh, right. Master, there is a bar of soap over there. It cleans the dirt off your skin. I'll wait here, so please give me your clothes after you're done undressing."
Elena said through the door.
"Sure."
Lawrend replied. He quickly undressed and passed it over to her through a small gap in the door opening.
"Thank you, Master!"
Elena said in excitement before she left.
"What is she being excited for?"
Lawrend smiled wryly. Whatever it is she was being excited for, he doesn't care as long as she does her job.
"Now then, what should I do first? Lather myself in soap, or relax in the water?"
Lawrend turned to the bath and pondered.
"Whatever, I'll just lather myself in soap first."
Lawrend decided.
He headed to the side and sat on a small chair. There was a long wooden plank hanging off the wall with three soaps on it. He took one and sniffed it.
"Hmm… this soap is nice."
Lawrend nodded his head in satisfaction. He took a large wooden scoop and poured the bath's water on his body.
He started lathering himself with the soap and rubbing his skin.
…
"Fufufu. Master would never guess…"
A laugh sounded faintly outside the door.
"Shhh!"
Another voice hushed the first one.
"Fufu."
The laugh continued before it went silent again.
"Next, I'll take a dip in the bathtub."
Lawrend said out loud after he fully covered himself with soap.
"Ahh~ Nothing really beats a warm bath…"
Lawrend moaned in pleasure.
"Caught you!"
Someone suddenly wrapped their arms around Lawrend's shoulders.
"Who!?"
Lawrend grabbed the arm by instinct, and he got ready to use his Shock Arc.
"Wait, is that Aezel?"
Lawrend realized from her voice. He turned around and looked at her. Or at least, that was what he wanted to do before his head was stopped.
"Fufufu. Don't look, Master. I'll rub your chest for you."
The voice continued with a laugh.
"This is Aezel, isn't it?"
Lawrend said to her with a deadpan expression on his face.
"Fufufufu. As expected of Master."
She laughed in confirmation.
Her hand ran all over Lawrend's body and caressed him.
"Aezel, this is the bath, isn't it?"
Lawrend said to her as he allowed her to continue.
"Yes, Master. But isn't it exciting doing it here?"
Aezel replied while her hands continued feeling all over Lawrend's body.
"Isn't that enough? You're enjoying my body so much."
Lawrend said to her with a wry smile on his face.
"Fufufu. You're enjoying it too, don't you?"
Aezel replied in a teasing voice.
