"No. I'm not gonna torture you. Neither would I insert something weird inside you."
Aleshia shook her head.
"Suspicious."
The little catgirl sniffed Aleshia with a doubtful look on her face.
"I'm not suspicious. Instead, can you explain what do you mean by insert things inside you?"
Aleshia asked the little catgirl with a frown on her face. This may be more serious than she thinks.
"T-The woman in the black clothing inserted a long thing inside my belly."
The little catgirl replied with a frightened face.
"Inside your belly??"
Aleshia's eyes widened in response. She never thought that someone could do that to a little girl.
"Can you explain in detail what kind of 'thing' that was?"
Aleshia asked her with a solemn face.
"It was thick! It was long and sharp! It hurts when it went inside me!"
The little catgirl explained with hand motions.
"Continue…"
Aleshia furrowed her eyebrows as she listened.
"When it went inside me, it put liquid inside me! The woman then pulled it out of me. It hurts, and my skin bled!"
The little catgirl explained with a frown on her face like she was complaining to Aleshia.
"Wait, what do you mean your skin bled?"
Aleshia asked in confusion. For some reason, she felt like she was thinking of something else.
"It was like a thorn pricked my skin. But I think it's made of metal?"
The little catgirl wasn't entirely sure about it. After all, at her age, she wasn't that knowledgeable about many things.
"Huh?"
Aleshia blinked her eyes in confusion. Metal? Huh?
"It looked like this!"
The little catgirl then traced it on the bed.
"Ah… so you meant a syringe?"
Aleshia facepalmed herself and asked her with a sigh.
"A syringe? I don't know, but after that, I couldn't think straight."
The little catgirl was confused by Aleshia's words. She doesn't know what a 'syringe' was.
"Don't worry. I won't use a syringe on you."
Aleshia regained her smile. She couldn't help but reprimand herself inside her mind for having such a dirty imagination.
"Really? But you're a human!"
The little catgirl was still suspicious of Aleshia.
"Do you want a piece of candy?"
Aleshia pulled a wrapped candy from her pocket.
"Really!? I can have it?"
The little catgirl asked her with shining eyes. She was entirely focused on the candy, and her tail swung sideways really fast. Even her ears were perked up.
"Of course. As long as you listen to me then I can give you more."
Aleshia replied with a smile on her face.
"Then, I'll listen to you!"
The little catgirl smiled at Aleshia.
"Hehehe. Here."
Aleshia passed to her the candy. She accepted it and immediately unwrapped it before she ate it.
Aleshia felt proud of herself. This supreme technique never fails.
"Nyaaaa~"
The little catgirl's face melted in pleasure after she ate the candy.
"Little kitty, what is your name?"
Aleshia asked her seeing that she was tamer than before. She walked towards her and sat on the bed beside her.
"Little kitty? Nice human, don't you know that calling us demihuman like that is offensive?"
The little catgirl furrowed her eyebrows.
"I'm sorry. I didn't know. Here's another candy."
Aleshia patted the little catgirl on her head before giving her another piece of candy.
"Thank you! You're the best human I have ever met."
She smiled at Aleshia innocently.
"Then, will you tell me your name?"
Aleshia asked her as she continued patting her head.
"Mm! My name is Feli Lana! I'm a feline demihuman."
The little catgirl nodded her head joyously and introduced herself.
"Can I call you Fefe?"
Aleshia asked her. She was cautious as she doesn't know if she will offend the little catgirl again.
"Mm! Anything for you, best human."
Feli nodded her head happily. She liked the nickname Aleshia made for her.
"Thank you. Do you want to take a bath?"
Aleshia stood up and opened her hand to Feli.
"Bath? But I don't like water…"
Feli looked up at Aleshia warily.
"The water is warm. It will feel good."
Aleshia said to her.
"Warm… Okay!"
Feli thought about it before she nodded her head. She became curious hearing that the water was warm. She grabbed ahold of Aleshia's hand.
"Let's go."
Aleshia pulled Feli with her with a smile.
"Hello!"
Aezel waved at Feli as she passed by them on the bed.
"Demon?"
Feli furrowed her eyebrows in confusion. She couldn't understand why a demon was here.
Feli then entered the bathroom with Aleshia, without having the chance for her question to be answered.
"Fefe, remove your clothes and sit here. I'll wash your body."
Aleshia patted the small wooden chair beside the bathtub.
"Okay."
Feli nodded her head. She looked around at the steam around her in wonder. This was her first time seeing such a thing.
A while later, she finished removing her ragged clothes and sat on the chair.
"Relax, okay? I'll pour the water slowly."
Aleshia grabbed the large wooden scoop, filled it, and slowly poured the water on top of Feli's head.
"W-W-Water!!!"
Feli hugged herself and closed her eyes as the warm water poured over her body. If you're worried about it being the same water Lawrend used earlier, this bathtub's water is continuously changed. The old water flows down the drain while a pipe replaces it with new warm water.
"Relax… Water will not hurt you."
Aleshia rubbed her back and calmed her down. Only then did Feli slowly started to enjoy the bath.
After a while, Feli was smiling every time Aleshia poured warm water over her.
"Nyaaa~"
She closed her eyes happily and enjoyed it as Aleshia poured another scoop of water over her.
"That's it. I'll get a towel for you. Wait here, okay?"
Aleshia said to her, and she stood up to leave.
"D-Don't leave me!"
Feli immediately stood up and grabbed Aleshia's hand fearfully.
"You… Alright. Come with me."
Aleshia looked at her in a daze before she realized that this little catgirl must still be fearful. She still has a trauma for being left alone with no one to trust.
