Chapter 163: Undead Bathing, Cold Joke Floating Corpse

"What do you mean, you make it sound like joining my Axis Cult means you can't find a good man!"

Aqua, having returned home, was still somewhat angry, while Darkness and Wiz beside her both wore expressions that were hard to describe.

The Axis Cult is called a sect with problematic brains not without reason; the biggest reason lies in some believers' rather unconventional kinks — not only is anyone acceptable, but human-beast pairings are also accepted.

If one truly becomes an Axis Cult believer, they directly lose their mate selection rights in the marriage market.

Oh no, it's possible no one would be willing to marry an Axis Cult believer at all; that's how severe the situation is.

"In a certain sense, this also counts as a form of sadism."

Darkness was referring to the matter of choosing Broly as her future husband; after all, the boy is also an Axis Cult believer.

"Miss Darkness, could you not drag me into this?"

Wiz's expression was a bit subtle; she doesn't have masochistic tendencies.

"Going to bathe; spent the day with the Undead in the Dungeon, my whole body reeks."

Aqua said this while stripping off her clothes and running toward the bathroom.

"Ah, do I stink?"

Wiz was somewhat offended and immediately sniffed her own sleeve with her nose, discovering there really was a bit of a smell.

"Want to bathe together?"

Darkness does manual labor; she was just carrying treasure back, and her whole body also smells of sweat.

"Is that not too appropriate?"

The Lich lady was a bit reluctant, mainly because she was afraid of being in a bathhouse alone with Aqua.

"Nothing inappropriate about it; perfect chance for you to experience Broly's scrubbing technique too."

"Mhm mhm mhm."

Broly looked at the Lich lady with some anticipation in his eyes, though he was actually the one with the strongest smell, since he carried a Zombie back.

"Then alright."

Seeing the boy's little anticipatory eyes wanting to show off his skill, Wiz only barely agreed.

The Annex's bathroom is over twenty square meters; the water pool alone occupies most of it.

After rinsing their bodies clean outside the water pool, Bathing Master Bu went online.

Wiz's body was indeed icy cold, like a corpse.

However, the feel in hand was smooth and elastic, though one must add the qualifier: a fresh corpse.

Skin color slightly dark, but merely lacking blood color; it's still very white, not just white but also large — a chubby build with very shapely proportions everywhere, a body that can be called plump.

However, Wiz's body, which could be described with many complimentary words, still has some flaws: insufficient metabolism.

Broly scrubbed for a while and felt a sense of frustration, because he didn't scrub off much dirt.

For a Bathing Master, this is no less than people eating French fries without ketchup.

However, the good news is, after cooperating with the technique of infusing Life Energy, Wiz's body, which received a full-body massage along the way, felt comfortable, and her Happiness Value shot straight up by seven points — a higher increase than Aqua and Darkness combined right now.

One can only say, the other two who are used to scrubbing are already like an old married couple after marriage; they've lost the freshness for some things.

Although Happiness Value can still rise, it only rises a tiny bit, incomparable to a target like Wiz who isn't used to it yet.

【No wonder, fickle.】

As this information surfaced in his mind, Broly gently placed the Lich lady, who had already earned scrubbing Happiness Value, into the huge bath pool.

In the following five minutes, Broly's technique was extremely fast, separately completing the surface cleaning work on Aqua and Darkness's bodies.

Four people soaking in the large bath pool, yet it didn't feel crowded at all; Aqua comfortably exhaled and picked up the High-grade Sparkling Wine brought in beside her, starting to drink.

"A large bathroom is great; Marian's small bathroom simply can't compare to our large bathroom."

Right, Aqua is still holding a grudge; she probably won't forget before going to sleep tonight.

"True, but it's just that every time we bathe, it feels a bit wasteful of water and firewood."

Wiz felt the bath pool was too large; at least five or six more people could soak here together, practically like a Medium Bathhouse.

"Look, there's a guardrail here too; should be to prevent people soaking from slipping in the water pool, right?"

Wiz touched the guardrail beside her and discovered the card slots on it, which were quite suitable for a human hand to grip.

"Ah, Wiz, that's not a guardrail, that's a..."

Darkness saw it; she was originally being treated to drinks by Aqua, and immediately sprayed the wine she had just put in her mouth out.

"Hey hey hey, that's Premium Sparkling Wine worth three hundred thousand Eris a bottle, you just sprayed it into the water pool like that?" "Aqua, answer me one question: was this water pool properly cleaned before use?"

"What nonsense are you spouting? Of course it was properly cleaned before use, otherwise it'd be all moss, how could we use it?"

"Then I'm relieved."

Darkness breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's up?"

Wiz found her reaction a bit strange.

"That guardrail you mentioned isn't some handrail to prevent slipping, but an assistive device; the specific usage, hmm, Wiz, you turn around and grab it with both hands first..."

Darkness felt it was better to let Wiz experience it herself rather than explain.

"Like this?"

Wiz obediently tried it, and soon her butt was bumped from behind by Darkness who had come up behind her.

"Eh? Ah!"

The Lich lady first froze, a bit confused, but suddenly her face turned red.

"So it assists with that?"

"This thing isn't too common even in Noble bathrooms; only those who like doing it in the bathroom would install this kind of thing in the bathroom. Hmm, looks like the former owner of this Annex was a player."

Darkness spoke with the posture of a veteran player, imagining herself lying prone here, and suddenly added: "But compared to a handrail, I prefer handcuffs; if possible, the best would be the height that can push the face into the water..."

Darkness's masochism flared up again, her face red as she spoke strange things while stealing glances at the boy beside her, as if expecting his reaction.

The result was that she saw Broly having the time of his life playing diving, kicking off the wall of the large bath from one end to dive to the other, then drifting back on the water's surface, then playing the diving game again.

As for the suggestive, ambiguous scene on this side, it merely earned a glance at the start, then once he couldn't understand it, it was treated with disdain.

"Darkness, can you let go of my waist?"

Wiz asked.

"Sorry, I lost my composure a bit."

Darkness released the lich lady's waist and sat back in the water pool, regaining her calm.

"Hah~"

The lich lady also breathed a sigh of relief; that pose just now was unexpectedly shameful.

"Want to drink alcohol?"

Aqua hugged a bottle and leaned over to ask.

"Ah, I'll pass."

Wiz wanted to refuse, but the next moment the bottle mouth was shoved into her mouth.

"Don't be polite with me, drink as much as you can~"

Aqua said quite generously, her face very red, seemingly drunk.

"Eh, this alcohol, it's hard liquor."

Only now did Darkness notice the hard liquor label stuck on this bottle of premium sparkling wine.

"Since everyone's bathing, let me perform a 'Flowers Birds Wind Moon' for you all!"

Aqua, who hadn't purified the alcohol at all, had already entered a drunken state.

And with her spraying water everywhere, everyone fled the bathroom in a panic.

"Wahhh, the drunk Aqua-sama is too terrifying, I was almost purified!"

Wiz was still shaken; Broly meanwhile injected life energy into her at the side, restoring her body which had even become somewhat illusory.

"Aqua's still inside, is it really fine to just leave her be?"

Darkness had changed into fresh sleepwear and couldn't help but ask.

She only returned home occasionally now, usually staying at the annex on this side.

"It's fine, Aqua Master did this before too, and even said sleeping in water is more comfortable than sleeping in bed."

Aqua is the Water Goddess; there's absolutely no chance of her drowning while drunk — she can breathe freely in water.

Because of Broly's words, the other two chose to leave Aqua to her own devices.

After a bout of drunken frenzy, Aqua collapsed in the bath, sleeping like a floating corpse.
