Playing Cosplay in the Dark?

Soaking in a Hot Spring for too long was inadvisable. When the three of them began to feel a little sleepy, they got dressed and left.

The moment Feng An came out, he saw Hinata's flushed little face.

He asked worriedly, "Did you soak for too long? Does your head hurt?"

The moment Hinata saw him, she remembered the conversation between him and Hyuga Hiashi earlier.

Her already rosy cheeks turned even redder.

She hurriedly shook her head. "I'm fine. It's just a little hot."

"That's good."

Feng An nodded and took Hinata's small hand.

"Let's go to sleep."

Hyuga Hiashi, who had come up behind them, immediately furrowed his brows.

"When you say sleep, do you really mean sleep?"

"Of course."

"Mm, very good."

Hyuga Hiashi nodded.

Feng An shot Hyuga Hiashi a disdainful look.

What a petty man, judging a gentleman by his own standards.

Hyuga Hiashi then followed the two of them to a Small Inn.

Feng An gave the place a simple check, looking over the environment and cleanliness.

Overall, he was fairly satisfied. It was quite clean too.

There was not much noise around either. Otherwise, it would be awkward if they were resting in the middle of the night and suddenly heard some moans and grunts.

Seeing the woman at the front desk dozing with her head down, Feng An walked over and asked, "Do you still have rooms?"

Hearing that customers had arrived, the front desk woman instantly woke up and wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth.

"Yes!"

"How many rooms are left?"

The woman paused for a moment and sized up the two before her. The man was handsome, while the girl beside him had a flushed face and seemed extremely shy.

A man and a woman, at a tourist destination, heading to a Small Inn in the dead of night!

Everything checked out!

"There's only one room left."

The woman winked at Feng An.

It was as though she were telling him, I could see your purpose at a glance. How was that assist? Isn't your Sister Kun amazing?

Feng An froze slightly. Seeing her clever expression, he immediately understood.

People in the Land of Hot Water really were different. Even a Small Inn was so good at reading its guests' intentions. No wonder the country was small but its economy was thriving.

However, before Feng An could say anything, Hyuga Hiashi behind him widened his eyes.

With a dark expression, he stepped forward and said in a low voice, "Three rooms!"

The woman was instantly thrown into disarray.

Could it be?!

Was this a father traveling with his son and daughter?

A major miscalculation.

But no matter how she looked at them, the two did not seem like they had the same parents.

"Sorry, sorry. Here are your keys."

She hurriedly took out the keys to three rooms and kept nodding in apology.

"How much?"

"It would normally be 1,120 ryo for one night. We deeply apologize for the inconvenience caused by the misunderstanding earlier. Three rooms for 3,000 ryo. Would that be acceptable?"

"Hmph."

Hyuga Hiashi snorted, handed the woman 3,000 ryo, took the keys, and went upstairs.

After he left, the woman frowned in thought.

If they were family, why were they getting three rooms?

After the three went upstairs, their rooms happened to be the three at the very end of the second floor: 204, 205, and 206.

Hyuga Hiashi coughed before entering room 204.

Feng An naturally knew that was meant as a warning to him.

"Good night, Hinata."

"Good night, Feng An."

After entering room 205, Feng An began cultivating according to his usual routine.

He had become increasingly proficient with Ninjutsu, and the variety he knew had grown more complete. Of the Seven Attributes of Chakra, he now knew techniques for six. He was only lacking Yang Release Ninjutsu.

When he had read the Book of Formations in his previous life, he should have carefully looked through the Medical Ninjutsu section. Unfortunately, it was too late for regrets now.

Medical Ninjutsu did not look impressive, but anyone who had transmigrated understood its importance.

Battles between ninja made it all too easy to lose an arm or a leg through one careless mistake.

With certain powerful Medical Ninjutsu, as long as treatment was prompt, even a severed arm could be reattached.

After all, this ninja world's development of the human body was simply outrageous.

Eye Transplantation? Just gouge the eye out and stuff it into your own eye socket, and it would work. Cell Transplantation? Never mind all the details, just jab in a huge syringe.

After going through every cultivation process once, Feng An let out a long breath.

He took out the Sealing Scrolls he had bought during the day and rebonded the Kusanagi Sword he had picked up.

As he looked at the Sealing Jutsu on the scroll, it seemed increasingly familiar.

"Sure enough, the techniques for Ninja Tools and Summoning Beasts are basically the same."

After rebonding it, Feng An poured his Chakra into the Kusanagi Sword, completely severing its connection with Orochimaru.

Feng An played with the Kusanagi Sword's ability to Lengthen and Shorten, as well as its Chakra infusion function, for a while before putting it back into the scroll.

"I wonder if Hinata's asleep yet..."

"Damn old fart, he ruined my first date. I didn't get anything done."

He sat up and unzipped his backpack.

Inside was a sexy Striped String Bikini.

"Sigh..."

Feng An sighed and took out the light-blue Butterfly Hairpin beside it.

He had originally wanted to give it to Hinata, but he had been too afraid that Hyuga Hiashi would see the Striped String Bikini, so he had not dared open his backpack.

Knock, knock.

The sudden soft knocking startled Feng An. He hurriedly stuffed everything back into the backpack.

Don't tell me the old fart came to inspect the room?

Then Hinata's quiet voice came from outside the door.

"Are you asleep, Feng An?"

Feng An let out a long breath. "The door isn't locked. Come in."

Hinata carefully closed the door and sat down beside Feng An.

She blinked her beautiful eyes at him.

"Let's begin."

Begin?

Seeing Hinata's gentle, watery gaze, his eyes instantly widened.

"Begin what?"

"Well, the cultivation you mentioned that day... Didn't you say only I could help you..."

"Oh..."

Feng An's eyes instantly dimmed a little.

Just then, Hinata suddenly noticed something that looked a little like a handkerchief caught in the zipper of Feng An's backpack.

Pointing at the corner of the Striped String Bikini sticking out, Hinata asked curiously, "What's this?"

Feng An followed where she was pointing and saw that she was pointing at the swimsuit.

He immediately broke out in a cold sweat, sweat pouring down his forehead.

Although he had bought it for Hinata, he had purchased it on a whim. Besides, giving her this kind of swimsuit under the current circumstances would be far too inappropriate.

It's pitch-black right now. What if she misunderstands and thinks I want to play some kind of Cosplay? Wouldn't she label me a pervert in her heart!

I need to stay calm!

"Why are you suddenly sweating so much? Is that a handkerchief?"

As she spoke, Hinata reached her small hand toward the backpack.

Feng An's eyes immediately widened to an unbelievable degree.

Just as he wanted to stop her, Hinata had already pulled open the backpack zipper.

"Ah!!"

After seeing the handkerchief's true form, Hinata's entire face turned scarlet.

She had thought it was a handkerchief, but it turned out to be a String bikini. The key was that there was extremely little fabric.

If she wore it, at least half of her snow-white Northern Hemisphere would be exposed to the air.

After seeing Hinata completely pull it out, Feng An completely deflated.

It's over!

Why did I pick this swimsuit on a whim back then?

The favorability I worked so hard to build is probably about to drop to zero...

"What was that sound?!"

On the other side, Hyuga Hiashi, who had not dared sleep too deeply in the first place, suddenly heard Hinata's cry and immediately sat bolt upright.
