"Hnnngh, aaaaaah-"
In the bathhouse, more than a dozen burly men watched Shen Qi howl, their faces wreathed in kindly smiles.
After dinner, Wude had led the Fighting Dojo's elite disciples in booking a large private bath, letting Shen Qi experience some manly warmth.
From loosening his tendons and working his back to bone-setting and scraping therapy, Shen Qi felt as if he had lost forty or fifty pounds.
Soaking in the large bath now certainly felt good, but the process had been far too painful.
At least Chansey's Tendon-Splitting Bone-Dislocating Technique knocked him out in a move or two. Wude and the burly men took forever, weaving together sensations of falling apart, cramping, tingling, stinging, and all sorts of other things.
Speaking of Chansey, despite normally wearing no clothes as a Pokémon, she had wrapped a scarf around herself and gone to the women's bath next door as soon as she entered the bathhouse.
In an unfamiliar place, Dodo should have had the male soul facing outward, but upon seeing Shen Qi's miserable state, Dodo decisively switched to the older sister's soul and went to the women's bath too.
What left Shen Qi unsure whether to laugh or cry was that the [Love Savings Bank] had even started Energy Charging.
The affection stored from the fine men of the Fighting Dojo could cover game items' durability loss or replace Shen Qi's mental power expenditure.
Wait...
Shen Qi thought of a truly awful way to play.
That was [Charm Pendant] + [Love Savings Bank].
If he put on the [Charm Pendant] now, all these fine men's affection would soar, rapidly putting the [Love Savings Bank] into Energy Charging.
No, no!
Shen Qi shook his head fiercely, dispelling the terrifying thought.
*You really got me, Lopunny. The game items your scenario
