Exercise Is Most Important / A Bath-I Love Baths

"Then I'm all set."

Suika, who had confused senior operators with Elite Operator, nodded.

"Are you here to see the Doctor?" After chatting with Suika, Amiya asked the three of them about their purpose.

"Um, actually I came to see you, but you weren't in the office. I guessed you'd probably be here, so..."

After she finished speaking, Suika told the two of them about how she gave the Hina Doll to Shamare.

"Shamare?"

I know she's a very pitiful child.

According to the Personnel Department's report, her situation is not very good.

The main problem is that she's too young and hasn't systematically studied Originium Arts, while her Originium Arts are too powerful, causing her abilities to frequently go out of control.

Amiya lowered her head and recalled for a moment before explaining to the Doctor.

Although after returning to Rhodes Island Kal'tsit transferred the files of some Elite Operator and most ordinary field operators to the Doctor.

However, the time was too short. Even if the Doctor was exceptionally gifted enough to remember everyone in these files, Doctor still wouldn't recognize someone like Shamare, who wasn't even in the personnel files and was only recorded in the Medical Department.

"Is the Hina Doll you're talking about the one in the records that cursed the Blood Demon Lord, causing him serious injury?"

During this time, Doctor has been cramming on a lot of knowledge. Although he doesn't know the Blood Demon Lord, he knows that the other party's strength is among the top in this land.

The fact that Suika could leave her opponent utterly defeated with just one item speaks volumes about its power.

Yes, that's it.

However, the power of Hina Doll depends on the caster.

Its principle is actually to collect the misfortune on the caster, and then transfer the misfortune by obtaining the body tissue of the target.

The amount of misfortune an ordinary person can experience is limited.

My success in casting the curse was due to the combination of my other ability, the Great Fortune Sigil."

Suika pointed to the small, seemingly insignificant stone plaques hanging around the necks of Amiya, Hoshiguma, and Swire, and then continued...

"The power of the Great Fortune Sigil is to fix my luck in this stone tablet, and I can also gain even stronger luck by crushing the stone tablet."

But if I give the stone tablet to someone else, then this part of my luck will be temporarily lost, and misfortune will fill the void around me.

This will cause me to have a few days of bad luck after I give away the Great Fortune Sigil.

This would normally be a very troublesome and negative situation, but the Hina Doll can conveniently avoid this bad luck.

It absorbs and stores bad luck.

I gave away quite a few of these items on Rhodes Island in order to curse that Blood Demon Lord.

Even so, it only made him feel bad for a short period of time, so this thing actually has its limits.

Furthermore, unless there's a way to reduce one's own luck to replenish the Hina Doll's misfortune, the Hina Doll's curse won't be too strong.

Suika explained in detail the connection between her ability Great Fortune Sigil, and the Hina Doll.

After all, Amiya was the only one in the room who knew about this, since she was the initiator and participant in the incident of the Cursed Blood Demon Lord. The others had no idea that the Great Fortune Sigil would reduce Suika's luck.

Upon hearing about the side effects of this Great Fortune Sigil, Hoshiguma reached out and placed a hand on Suika's head, speaking seriously.

"This thing is so dangerous, you're not allowed to use it carelessly in the future."

Chapter 459 Physical exercise is the most important thing

"Hehe!"

Don't worry, back then I gave over a hundred Great Fortune Sigil on Rhodes Island and the resulting bad luck didn't kill that Blood Demon Lord. Giving one or two runes occasionally is at most like stepping in dog poop or not getting the seasoning packet when buying instant noodles.

It won't affect my safety.

Luck is also related to ability. For an ordinary person, if they give up about three parts of their luck, they might be hit by a vase falling from the sky or a piece of broken glass, which could lead to life-threatening situations.

But for Suika, this stuff wouldn't even break her skin if it hit her.

This is also why she gave away the Hina Doll.

Once she has sufficient strength, minor misfortunes will no longer affect her actions.

"By the way, if the resolution passes, Logos will send you the Elite Operator's credentials later, and he will contact you then."

Amiya saw the three preparing to leave and, remembering that the entrance to the Elite Operator's area required a rune from Logos to enter, spoke up.

"Okay, okay!" Suika gave a knowing gesture, and the three of them said goodbye to Doctor and Amiya before leaving.

"Where do we go next?" Swire stretched as she left the office.

"Hmm... let's go this way, I remember this is Rhodes Island's training grounds."

Suika familiarized herself with the route, then, after recalling the past, led the two into a passageway.

After opening a door, the lively sounds inside made the three of them squint.

Rhodes Island has many training grounds, and the training grounds provided for different operators are different, but the one that Suika brought is a place for basic training.

It's like a gym, with all sorts of training equipment, and many operators are sweating it out inside.

Hoshiguma's eyes lit up when he saw the various professional training equipment inside.

Swire rubbed his shoulders, indicating that he hadn't exercised in a long time.

"Hey, you three want to practice?" Just then, ACE's voice came from not far away.

The three looked over and saw him standing in front of a barbell. Judging from the thick weight plates on it, the thing was definitely not light.

"Is there a prize?" Suika walked over excitedly.

Seeing that Ace Suika was shaking her head repeatedly, she thought, "Who can compare to her? You're guaranteed to lose."

Unlike Swire, who simply stood aside and gave up, Hoshiguma walked up to the barbell.

"I'll give it a try!"

After saying that, she stretched her limbs, took a deep breath, and grabbed the barbell.

Then, with a roar, she lifted the heavy-looking barbell.

Upon seeing this, the nearby operators applauded and celebrated.

It's worth noting that this police officer from Lungmen, who came for the exchange, didn't warm up at all before lifting such a heavy barbell.

The key point is that in the end, she didn't drop the barbell, but put it down.

This proves that the force wasn't too much of a burden for her.

Suika had absolutely no doubt about this.

After all, Hoshiguma helped Chen withstand the collapse of an entire wall in the story and only suffered minor injuries.

That thing isn't light at all; even Hoshiguma managed to lift it in a hurry, let alone this kind of prepared weightlifting.

ACE also gave a thumbs-up to Hoshiguma in respect.

"That's a ton! Very few people on Rhodes Island could lift that without using Originium Arts."

"Haha, no wonder it's so heavy..." Just as Hoshiguma was listening to the praise from those around him with a smug look, he caught a glimpse of Suika sneaking up to the barbell, lifting it up with one hand, then pursing her lips and sneakingly putting it down again.

She was furious. It took her a lot of effort to lift that barbell, but Suika could lift it with one hand so easily.

Although Suika thought she was being very careful, many people actually saw what happened.

Some people couldn't help but be curious, thinking that this thing was a fake prop, otherwise how could a little girl lift it with one hand?

As a result, after walking in and exerting force... I strained my back.

After a brief period of playing around, everyone went back to their own equipment to exercise. Suika saw that Hoshiguma and Swire had also found some equipment. She rubbed her chin, then casually picked up three dumbbells and started doing acrobatics.

Many people were speechless as they watched Suika swinging around three dumbbells labeled 20KG.

This thing isn't particularly heavy, but it's rare to see it feel so light and airy.

Two hours later, Suika was playing chess with the Duke of Zhou in her sleep, was awakened by Hoshiguma.

"Wake up, wake up!" Suika opened her eyes and looked at Hoshiguma with a confused expression.

"Let's go take a shower."

Upon hearing about taking a bath, Suika, who had been dozing off, immediately perked up.

Taking a bath is good; going to public bathhouses more often is a sign of good civilization.

"Let's go back and get our clothes first, then we'll meet at the bathhouse!" After working up a good sweat from exercising, Hoshiguma couldn't wait to go to the bathhouse for a refreshing shower.

"Do you know the place?" Suika asked as they walked.

"I know, I just asked the operators here." Hoshiguma pointed to a few unfamiliar women not far away, who waved and smiled as they looked over.

"Alright, see you at the bathhouse!" After wiping the drool from the corner of her mouth Suika and the other two walked out of the training room.

"I didn't expect Rhodes Island's training equipment to be so good. I see that many of the products inside are from Raythean Industries. Do you have a partnership with Raythean Industries?"

On the way back Swire asked.

"I just returned to Rhodes Island like you, so I don't know the specifics either."

Suika was unaware that the Blacksteel International, who were supposed to participate in the Battle of Chernobog as Rhodes Island's side, did not participate.

But she had heard before that the other party was indeed in Rhodes Island.

If Jessica is indeed on Rhodes Island, it wouldn't be surprising if Rhodes Island and Raythean Industries had connections.

Even if the Brinley family were incredibly magnanimous, they couldn't possibly allow their youngest daughter to go to an organization they knew absolutely nothing about.

Given Jessica's connection, and considering Old Cat's personality, he would definitely use this opportunity to secure some benefits for Rhodes Island, such as the right to purchase equipment.

After all, Raythean Industries is no ordinary organization. Many countries want to buy equipment from them, let alone organizations. Without connections, it's impossible to get good stuff.

"That's true!" Swire realized that judging from Suika's schedule, she hadn't been to Rhodes Island for a long time either, so asking her about the situation here was pointless.

Because they didn't live together, Suika went back to her own dorm room after the three of them parted ways.

She glanced around the empty room, then grabbed some clean clothes and, with a smug smile, strode arrogantly toward the bathhouse.

Chapter 460 Taking a Bath, I Love Taking Baths

"Hehehe..."

Just as Suika walked toward the bathhouse with an evil and greasy smile, she bumped into Swire.

Her hands were empty, and she didn't look like she was going to take a shower at all.

Suika patted her basin to indicate what was inside and then asked...

Beatrix, where's your thing?

Upon hearing Suika's words Beatrix turned to the side, revealing her tail.

A large basket was hanging from the tip of her tail, clearly containing all of the other person's toiletries.

Suika looked on with envy; the long tail was an unparalleled advantage at this moment.

This kind of elegance is something Suika will probably never be able to achieve in her lifetime... after all, she doesn't have a tail like that.

Thinking of this, Suika felt a surge of anger rising in her heart, and she reached out and grabbed Swire's tail, pulling out its fur backwards.

"Ah!" Swire exclaimed in surprise, drawn the attention of those around her, as she was caught off guard by Suika's sudden attack.

Swire grabbed Suika's large horn and lifted her up.

"What are you doing?!"

"Hmph~" Suika grabbed the tail and wouldn't let go. During their "fight," the cloth on the basket was lifted.

Suika saw a large pile of bottles and jars inside.

"Huh, what's this? Are you planning to drug me in the bathhouse?"

Attracted by the pile of bottles and jars Suika forgot about Swire's tail and began to look around curiously.

"What do you mean by drugging... these are all skincare products."

Swire gave Suika a light tap on the head before quickly hiding the tail that had escaped Suika's clutches behind her back.

"So many skincare products!"

Suika stared wide-eyed, her face filled with disbelief.
