Beauties at the Hot Springs, Warm and Alluring!
The Aventurine stares at that line—implying its special jurisdiction.
A bitter, self-deprecating smile appeared on his lips.
Topaz took a deep breath and pursed his lips tightly.
This result left them feeling powerless, yet deep down, they felt it was... inevitable.
After witnessing Lin Hai's near-divine power firsthand, they sensed that this day might come.
"Understood." Aventurine was the first to stand up and bow slightly.
"I guarantee the mission will be accomplished," Topaz followed firmly.
Hours later, a high-class diplomatic ship, unmarked and entirely silver-gray, quietly departed the headquarters airport and plunged into the vast sea of stars.
The course pointed directly to that star system, now designated as a special region— Jarilo-VI, Belobog.
Inside the bridge, Aventurine and Topaz stood side by side in front of the huge porthole, gazing at the stars rushing past outside.
Both remained silent, each lost in their own thoughts.
This journey is no longer a triumphant conquest, but a pragmatic mission to extend an olive branch of peace... or rather, a plea for reconciliation to that already risen, unassailable power.
The point of light on the star chart had never seemed so distant and oppressive as it did at this moment.
Underworld Belobog area, thermal baths.
It is currently enveloped in a thick, warm mist.
Unlike the solemnity of the Upper District of Qlipoth Fort, this place is full of everyday life and a relaxed atmosphere.
Beneath the enormous dome, several hot spring pools of varying sizes are scattered throughout, their waters clear and carrying a faint sulfurous scent.
The warm water gently massages the skin.
At this moment, a delightful scene is unfolding in the largest circular hot spring pool.
The Herta, Bronya, Seele, Kafka, Cipher, and Firefly.
Six women, each with their own unique charm and undeniable beauty, are soaking in the warm spring water.
The rising steam blurred their outlines, yet draped them in a hazy and alluring veil.
"This place is more comfortable than before." Seele stretched her body in the water like a nimble fish, splashing a few droplets.
Bronya leaned back by the pool, her wet silver hair clinging to her cheeks and neck, the warm water making her feel very relaxed.
She nodded slightly. "Yes, the reconstruction work benefits the Underworld, and this hot spring is one of the benefits brought about by the reconstruction."
The Herta gently ran his fingers across the water's surface, feeling the temperature of the water.
Kafka scooped up a handful of water, letting the droplets slide through her fingers and drip onto her smooth collarbone.
Cipher was soaking a little further away, like a quiet orchid blooming in the water. She listened to the conversation of the crowd, just smiling slightly, occasionally stirring the water with her fingertips, creating ripples.
Firefly seemed very happy; she seemed to enjoy being surrounded by water, gently splashing the water and listening curiously to her sisters' conversation.
The conversation gradually shifted to the man whose fate had intertwined with theirs.
"Speaking of which..." Seele blinked, looking at Bronya and the Herta, "Mr. Lin Hai seems to have become stronger in some aspects since he came back this time?"
Bronya blushed slightly and nodded. "Yes, his power... has indeed increased again, to a level that... is unimaginable to us."
Kafka chuckled softly. "Powerful men are always attractive, aren't they? Especially... when he can so generously share that power with those he cherishes."
Her gaze swept meaningfully over everyone present, and the ambiguity in her words seemed to raise the temperature of the pool.
These bold remarks caused Bronya and Firefly to blush slightly.
Seele then laughed foolishly.
Cipher lowered her eyelids, tiny water droplets clinging to her long eyelashes.
Sparkle, who had somehow slipped in, grinned slyly, her gaze sweeping over everyone. "Such a great opportunity, why don't we take a look at how good their figures are? After all, we're all family here!"
As she spoke, she deliberately straightened her back, displaying her petite yet perfectly proportioned and vibrant body curves.
This suggestion made the atmosphere more subtle and lively.
"Sparkle!" Bronya glared at her reproachfully, instinctively shrinking her body further into the water, but there was no real blame in her eyes.
Kafka chuckled softly, not at all shying away, but instead taking up the conversation with great interest:
"Oh? That's a good suggestion. Miss Bronya's figure is dignified yet graceful, with smooth lines, like a carefully carved piece of white jade, which suits her status very well."
The Herta also became interested and said, "From a biomechanical and aesthetic point of view, Seele's body has a good combination of flexibility and explosive power, belonging to the agility type..."
"... Kafka's bone structure and muscle distribution exude a more mature charm, full of tension..."
"... The Firefly's physique seems to have undergone special optimization, with proportions approaching the golden ratio..."
"... Cipher... um, she has a classic, understated voluptuous beauty."
The appreciation of the Herta was done in a serious manner, leaving the person being commented on both amused and exasperated.
"Herta! Why are you analyzing this like a specimen?" Seele protested.
This drew a burst of laughter.
Amidst laughter and playful banter, the hot spring soak was drawing to a close.
The group wrapped themselves in large, soft bath towels and headed to the rest area.
A row of clothes racks had already been prepared there, filled with all kinds of brand-new pajamas of different materials and styles.
From silk slip dresses to cotton cartoon onesie pajamas, they have it all.
"Come on, let's pick out some pajamas!" Seele ran over, picked up a onesie with a cute bunny pattern, and held it up against herself. "How's this one? Doesn't it fit perfectly?"
Bronya chose a light purple silk nightgown, simple and elegant in style, which suited her perfectly.
Kafka's fingers brushed over a burgundy lace-trimmed slip dress, her eyes sparkling with amusement.
The Herta didn't seem to care much about the style, but rather focused on the fabric composition and breathability, ultimately choosing a light gray pure cotton bathrobe.
Cipher silently picked up a milky white nightgown embroidered with delicate orchids.
Firefly was absolutely smitten with a blue pajama set featuring a star and moon pattern.
They gave each other advice and tried on clothes while laughing and joking.
The rest area was filled with a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.
The lingering steam hadn't completely dissipated, mingling with the fresh scent of a post-bath bath.
Several stunningly beautiful women, dressed only in light pajamas, gathered together, some standing, some sitting, chatting and laughing, creating a warm and inviting scene full of life and a touch of alluring fantasy.
This rare moment of leisure and intimacy seemed to temporarily dispel all the disturbances of the outside world, leaving only the warmth and tacit understanding between the sisters.
