Chapter 821

Riveria's move into Hearth Manor quickly brought some influence to Hearth Manor.

The next evening, when Broly was normally preparing to go bathe, Ais hurriedly followed along.

Broly went to the room to get a change of clothes, and Ais also went to the room to get a change of clothes and came out, with Lefiya similarly hugging a change of clothes following beside her.

When Broly walked toward the hot spring bathing room he used daily, Ais also silently followed behind, and the elf girl likewise followed step by step beside her.

When Broly took off his clothes in the changing room and turned his head back, he saw Lefiya stopping Ais from learning to undress like him.

"Lefiya, if you mind bathing together with me in one bathroom, you can go to another bathroom to bathe."

Broly looked at the elf girl glaring at him and couldn't help but say a sentence to her.

【If I could, I wouldn't want to bathe with you; if it weren't for Lady Riveria giving Miss Ais random bad advice last night, saying something about how you have to keep up with others' pace, causing Miss Ais to want to come bathe together with you today, I wouldn't have come over————】

The elf girl complained in her heart, but on her face she said: "I don't mind; the other bathrooms are a bit crowded right now, Mr. Broly, you don't need to mind me and Miss Ais, go inside first."

【The other bathrooms are crowded now?】

Broly was a bit puzzled, always feeling Lefiya was a bit strange today, but since the other party had already said she didn't mind bathing together with him, he also had no intention of probing deeper; after all, compared to usual bath times, it was better than deliberately bringing Ais to avoid him.

"Ah!"

A cry of surprise rang out.

"What's wrong?"

Ais, because of the hand that suddenly appeared in front of her eyes covering her vision, was a bit confused.

"Broly, you, why did you suddenly take off your pants?"

Lefiya's face flushed red at once, and she directly questioned him.

"Bathing, do you still have to wear underwear to bathe?"

Broly had a face full of confusion.

"But Miss Ais and I are still here, you just directly took off your underwear, this————"

With physical development, Broly's height had long exceeded the women of Hearth Manor, now nearly approaching the degree of 1.8 meters.

His physique was robust, lines flowing, muscles hard as rock and distinctly defined; after taking off his clothes, he was just like a living ancient Greek statue.

"Lefiya, if you truly mind seeing my body, then go bathe in another bathroom."

Broly was a bit helpless; other encounter targets and wives didn't have this much trouble, only Lefiya was somewhat rejecting.

And, if you truly don't want to look, you can cover your eyes.

Even if you don't cover them, closing your eyes works too.

Lefiya neither covered her eyes nor closed them, but instead stared unblinkingly.

She even covered Ais's eyes not letting her look; how does this count?

【If I really went to another bathroom, who knows if Miss Ais would be bullied later————】

The elf girl bit her lip, and could only say: "I don't mind, just, Mr. Broly, can't you tie a towel around your waist?"

"Fine, I'll tie it."

Broly felt it was superfluous, but still tied it.

And with the towel's cover, Lefiya then exhaled.

"What's wrong with taking off underwear?"

Her hand loosened, Ais pulled it down, then asked strangely.

"Mr. Broly, you go in first, Miss Ais and I will come in a moment."

", Lefiya, your face is a bit red, do you have a fever?"

"No fever, just saw something I shouldn't have seen."

Broly obediently entered the bathroom, Lefiya closed her eyes.

But the youth's shape in her mind, however, remained clearly distinct.

"Miss Ais, Lady Riveria said to keep up, so let's quickly change into bathing attire and go in."

Lefiya didn't wait for Ais to continue pursuing the question, and changed the topic.

Because Lady Riveria is here, bathing together with Broly is an unavoidable matter.

For the current plan, only option is to wrap the towel on her body tightly.

"Lefiya, aren't we going to bathe, does the scarf need to be wrapped that tight?"

"Wrapping tight is better, I'll help Miss Ais scrub later."

Broly had already washed his body and gotten into the hot spring pool, soaked for a while, then saw Ais and Lefiya two people walk in.

Both people each had two towels wrapped around them, one wrapped above, one wrapped below, and compared to calling them scarves, better to say they were crude underwear made from scarves, just like Chun's wrappings.

After Lefiya came in, just like a mother hen protecting chicks, she used her body to shield beside Ais.

"Miss Ais's bath, I'll help scrub, Mr. Broly, you properly soak your bath."

Broly didn't even open his mouth to say anything — didn't even make any move — and the elf girl spoke first to decide this matter.

Broly nodded, and didn't make a big deal of helping scrub either; actually, it's not like you need to seriously scrub every day.

Scrub once, bathe every day, if you can keep the body clean, you only need to normally rinse and use a towel to haphazardly scrub a bit.

And calling it scrubbing, but it's just scrubbing the back; Lefiya scrubbed for Ais, and even specially went to a remote corner of the bathroom.

With mist qi obscuring, Broly looked over, and could only see two white human shadows over there making some tiny movements.

And this bathroom wasn't booked out by just the three of them either; soon other people came in.

", Lefiya, Ais, how come you two also came to this side to bathe today?"

Tiona saw the two people, and couldn't help but be a bit surprised.

"Lady Riveria————"

Ais's words weren't finished, before being covered by Lefiya's hand over her mouth.

"The other bathrooms are too crowded, so I came over to this side today."

"I see. Do you need me to help?"

Tiona was very enthusiastic; she brought her own scrubbing towel over to ask.

"No need. You just scrub yourself."

Lefiya hurriedly refused; with Tiona's scrubbing method, she could scrub the towels right off her and Ais.

In the bathroom, people arrived one after another, and it gradually became lively.

Lefiya raised her vigilance, but the bullying she imagined from Broly did not happen.

Even though there were quite a few people in the bathroom not even wearing towels, the boy did not act like a beast in heat.

"Hah~"

Lefiya exhaled; if it was just this degree, bathing in the same bathroom as Broly wasn't unacceptable. After all, before this, she hadn't not bathed together with him while wrapped in bath towels.

After scrubbing clean, Lefiya brought Ais and deliberately chose the diagonal corner of the hot spring pool farthest from Broly to sit down. Tiona swam over to this side and chatted with the two of them.

The topic centered on Tiona being taken up to the sky by Songbird Ray and the others today; one could see the Amazon girl's happy mood from her trip to the sky today.

However, Lefiya listened absentmindedly, staying vigilant the whole time for any bestial behavior Broly might display. But as time passed and the boy just soaked there peacefully, Lefiya gradually relaxed.

But just when she thought this communal bath would pass peacefully like previous ones, Tiona beckoned to Broly, very naturally letting him come over to help.

And that posture was as natural as if she had eaten a bowl of rice or drunk a cup of water; Lefiya watched from the side, stunned.

However, what stunned the elf girl even more was that every single person who came in to bathe very naturally had Broly go to their side to help.

Bullying — it was indeed bullying, but the problem was, it wasn't Broly bullying others; it was others bossing him around, ordering him here and there.

To put it metaphorically, it was a group of Q-version avatar girls throwing a big bone stick among themselves, and the little simp with Broly's avatar chased that big bone stick, swimming around in the hot spring pool ordered about by everyone, picking up the sticks others threw everywhere.

Of course, the difference from a simp was that Broly could actually lick the big bone stick.

"How about it, Lefiya? Want to try ordering Broly to help?"

After the big bone stick returned to Q-version Tiona's side, the Amazon girl held the bone stick and asked the elf girl beside her.

In response, although Lefiya had her worldview refreshed and discovered the others were the ones doing the bullying, she still didn't want to order the boy to help.

However, Lefiya didn't want to order Broly to help, but Ais, because of Riveria's words, wanted to follow the way the others interacted with the boy.

She took the big bone stick in one hand, preparing to order the boy to help. Lefiya was startled; without thinking much, she subconsciously snatched the bone stick back, saying she would order the boy to help herself.

But when everyone looked at her, waiting for her to issue orders to the boy, Lefiya froze. After all, she really didn't need the boy to help with anything.

But things having come to this, not having the boy help wasn't an option either. Lefiya could only bite the bullet. After throwing the bone and having him fetch it back, she reached out and patted his head, and by the way had him lick her hand.

And with that one pat, and being licked on the hand like that, it was strangely comfortable————

Lefiya was a bit dazed.

Right at that moment, the big bone stick in her hand was taken by Ais.

When she came to her senses, she discovered Ais was also playing the throw-and-fetch bone game with Broly.

Seeing this, the Q-version elf girl's avatar showed a tearful, aggrieved expression.

Lefiya only felt she hadn't protected anything at all. Clearly she didn't want the Ais she admired and this little dog Broly to play the throw-and-fetch bone game.

However, when Tiona leaned over, leaned to her ear and said she could also become a little dog and play the throw-and-fetch bone game with Miss Ais, Lefiya suddenly felt this game was very good.

Seeing her and Ais playing the throw-and-fetch bone game happily, Broly instead quietly withdrew to play with the others. And by the time they finished bathing and came out, Lefiya only then reacted — she had actually enjoyed it, losing herself in the game.

"Looks like you two had quite a harvest."

Riveria had already finished bathing and was waiting outside. Looking at the two with good complexions, she said with a slight smile.

Lefiya lowered her head, not daring to reply at all. On the contrary, Ais asked the Nine Magic Princesses a question: "Riveria, do you know oral technique?"

"Why ask about this?"

"My oral technique isn't as good as others'. I want to catch up to the main group."

Ais answered honestly.

"Riveria, you don't know it?"

"No, I do. But it's too late tonight, and teaching isn't easy to teach. I'll research it a bit and guide you later. For now, you two go back and rest."

Oral technique — Riveria naturally didn't know it. After all, her previous title of Pure Widow wasn't fake. But since it was Ais asking, and she considered herself Ais's Life Mentor, even if she didn't know, she would pretend she did.

Ais didn't suspect a thing and quickly returned to her own room. Riveria, on the other hand, returned to her room alone, worried sick — how was she supposed to teach oral technique?

"Lady Riveria————"

Just as the Nine Magic Princesses was worrying, Alise walked in carrying a plate of cut fruit.

Seeing Alise, Riveria's eyes lit up. She was a Pure Widow, that was true, but others weren't.

A girl like Alise, during her time in the Loki Familia, had no lack of suitors. Although she'd never heard of her dating the opposite sex, this child loved to learn; perhaps she had knowledge in this area.

"Alise, I have something I need your help with. I wonder if you can?"

", Lady Riveria needs my help. Ah, then of course there's no problem. Just don't know what kind of help?

""

"I want to ask, do you know oral technique?"

The cut fruit went *pa* onto the table. Alise's pupils quaked: "Lady Riveria, why are you asking this?"

"Uh, isn't life about experiencing all kinds of things? I'm expanding my life experience."

The fact that she had no experience teaching Ais, Riveria naturally didn't want to expose to her Familia junior. She just randomly found an excuse.

"I don't have that kind of experience either, but I heard from other experienced women in the Familia that you can practice oral technique with ice pops."

The next day, when Ais came to ask for guidance, Riveria had the girl go out and buy ice pops.

"Hiss, so cold?"

"I practiced with an ice pop for a day."

Ais is indeed clumsy, but this kind of clumsiness—the act of silently striving for others—is what most easily moves people.

Although Life Mentor Riviria's methods are a bit wild and crooked, in terms of promoting relationships between boys and girls, she indeed has remarkable effects.

In just two days, not only did Ais and Broly's relationship advance by leaps and bounds, but Lefiya was also dragged into it.

Whether willing or not, after dragging her feet for so long, she directly caught up with the vanguard within two days, and Lefiya felt she could no longer return to that pure time of before.

And by the elves' view of marriage, having done everything except the real thing, besides marrying Broly, is there any other choice?

Of course, how much Ais played a role in it is unknown; anyway, Lefiya was half-pushed, half-willing...

There was both the helplessness at the beginning and the initiative after letting go, and as for Broly, he was naturally overjoyed.

After learning afterwards that it was Riviria's doing, he couldn't help but admire this Mom-san greatly, and even in his consciousness emerged the exclamation "A family with an elder is like having a treasure."
