Volume 3 Chapter 140-4 Dangerous Cheating Trip
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
Once again, he came out of the old temple and started walking down the mountain.
After getting out of view from the female Wolfman guards, Kian crouched near a muddy puddle.
He dipped both hands into the dirty, brown water and scrubbed the spot on his cheek where Sarah had kissed him. Then he rubbed his lips.
”…!”
(Mouthwash with mud… I’m not trying to shame Sarah. But I have to do this if I want to win Linca over.)
He kept washing his mouth for over a minute.
Mud dripped down his chin and neck as he stood up and called over Wing Cain.
’How about the innerwear?’
(If my underwear looks dirty, it’ll be too obvious, right? Sarah told me earlier that too much sweat is a turn-off. I can’t go too far.)
Still, a little bit of Sarah’s scent might help. Just enough to stir jealousy in someone like Linca.
’This is getting more fun. Keep becoming a beast. Only I understand you.’
(Someday I’ll let you join the harem too.)
’No, no. You’ll become mine instead. But I refuse to serve some guy with glasses.’
(Enough. I’ll move your soul into a body someday.)
’Hmph. I really can’t hate you.’
Then he took off into the sky.
Wing Cain picked up speed and soon reached the cave where Linca waited.
She wasn’t outside this time. Maybe she was still checking his blood. But her warmth could still be felt from inside.
Her invisibility was perfect, but to hide from a vampire’s senses, you needed to use Penetration.
”Linca.”
He landed inside the magic barrier and walked up the slope toward the cave.
If she was changing clothes or anything, he would wait. But just then, she stepped out. She wore her usual white cloak over a black dress from the East.
”Mr. Kian, you came back early.”
”I want to sneak into Ramsey. I’ll look around the fortress, meet Lord Owl, and be back in three days.”
”T-that’s so sudden…”
”I told you before, didn’t I?”
He pointed toward the cave. “Can I go in?”
”Wait. Your face is dirty. I’ll prepare a bath first. Please clean yourself.”
”Okay. I’ll leave it to you.”
”Leave it to me.”
She nodded, and with a flick of her hand, she made a stone tub appear just outside the cave. It was the same spot where he had bathed two hours ago. She filled it with swamp water and began to heat it.
While she worked, Kian took off his Silver Ice.
Now only wearing his innerwear, he waited. Linca rushed over, handed him a towel, soap, and a wooden bucket. She was fast.
”Ah…”
She brought his shirt close to her face and sniffed it.
”Hey, are you a pervert?”
”S-sorry,” she said, stepping back.
”Missed my smell that much, huh?”
He teased her with a tired voice. She shook her head, eyes on his shirt with a strange look.
”Um, Mr. Kian?”
”What?”
He was mixing hot water and snow in the bucket to make it just right.
Linca bit her lip and said, “Did you talk to Ms. Sarah?”
”Why do you think that?”
”I smelled her scent on your clothes.”
”Sarah’s scent? What kind?”
”She liked honey-scented soap. Even inside the old temple, she would have used honey or honey sake if she found any.”
Kian rubbed rose-scented soap onto his towel and glanced at Linca.
”Anyway, I talked to her. Before we deal with the Union, I was told to sneak into Ramsey and ask Lord Owl to help.”
”I knew it!”
Her eyes widened.
”Why did you take on something so dangerous? Ms. Sarah should do it!”
”I’m weak to her. Old habits. But it was my job from the start. I told her that today.”
”Lord Owl is dangerous. He’s not normal.”
”I know. I’ll talk to him anyway. I’m ready.”
He set the soap on a rock and began scrubbing himself with the towel.
”You’ll help me, won’t you?”
”Of course.”
”Then we’re good.”
”So… you counted on me from the start? What if I had said no?”
”Why talk about stuff that didn’t happen? You’re helping, right?”
This woman has issues with Sarah. She’s nosy. But that kind of behavior raises her affection.
Sure enough, Linca looked embarrassed but a little happy. She muttered something about trouble.
Then, without warning, she took off her white coat and began untying her gold ribbon.
”Wait—Linca!? Why are you undressing!?”
”I’m going with you. So I’ll bathe too. I’ll wash your back.”
”You can do that yourself! It’s embarrassing!”
He tried to stop her, but she leaned in and spoke with a pout.
”No. I don’t want that woman’s smell on you. I’ll wash it off myself. Also, I need to reapply the medicine to your shaved skin. So just stay still.”
