282 Chapter 282 The Fruits of Pain

“Try to do it more gently” Desmond exclaimed giving a reproachful look at Mei who couldn’t keep her hands steady due to shyness as she washed Xiauyue’s smooth skin.

That was especially the case when her delicate hands roamed the most sensual contours of Xiauyue’s body that even though she was not as voluptuous as Mei, she still had quite captivating curves.

But Mei was who had insisted on washing Xiauyue’s body while Desmond only took care of gently holding her and washing her long lilac hair that seemed to have acquired a more intense tone the same way as her eyes did.

Similar to what happened to Mei, Xiauyue manifested some phenomenon related to the increased purity of her bloodline but given the inherent difference between her origins; the phenomenon manifested by Xiauyue was much calmer.

With the last of the ghostly butterflies made of lilac Ki having faded away, an intense lilac glow passed through Xiauyue’s eyes for a moment before they returned to normal.

But even so, Xiauyue still seemed to be on the mend recovering mentally from the stress she had undergone so Mei and Desmond continued to gently wash her body trying to use the hot water to take away some of the tension she was feeling.

Feeling that Xiauyue had already spent too much time in the water but seeing that she still didn′t look quite lucid, Mei gave Desmond a brief glance and felt much more comfortable seeing that although that lustful spark in his eyes had not yet faded this was easily overshadowed by the care and affection with which Desmond was doing his job in washing Xiauyue’s hair.

Preparing to pull Xiauyue out of the water, Mei was curious about Desmond’s familiarity with the task so she asked curiously, “Do you have a lot of experience doing this?”

Feeling a very faint touch of jealousy in Mei’s tone that she might not have noticed herself, Desmond thought for a moment about his response before deciding to be honest about it: “You could put it like that... When I was little my parents and their best friends died leaving me and the daughter of their friend’s orphan, I being the eldest take care of her for many years and perhaps pampered her too much. However it may be today, she and I have a romantic relationship, on our first night I wanted to pamper her a bit so I washed every last inch of her body in a similar way to how you are doing it with Xiauyue. ”

.....

Hearing Desmond’s response, both Mei and Xiauyue who had only just begun to regain lucidity were greatly shocked for more than one reason.

In the first instance, it was rare that Desmond shared details of his private life, as this was not the first time that any of them asked about it, on the other hand, once in the past Desmond had mentioned the name of Sasha who was supposed to be his couple in his homeland so either Desmond was lying right now or Desmond was dating two women at the same time; Which wasn’t that rare in their society but it still left girls with a bad taste in their mouths.

Last but least, hearing Desmond speak so naturally about some details about his first time with a girl made both Xiauyue and Mei extremely shy; above all, because of the situation, they were in at the moment and the similarity that it seemed to share with what was discussed with Desmond.

That was especially the case for Xiauyue given her naked state where she could still feel Mei’s hands touching her skin and Desmond’s touch washing her hair; giving the poor girl an overdose of shyness.

The only irony was that such shyness somehow overwhelmed the trauma caused by consuming the but perhaps a small wish formed in the heart of the maiden whose mind had been filled with notions of love causing her to follow obediently Desmond and Mei’s guidance as they dressed her carefully.

And despite all the shyness that she felt at that moment, a small part of Xiauyue felt satisfied and pampered by the affectionate care that she was receiving; Of course, only God knew what her attitude would be once her somewhat uninhibited mood passed.

Desmond and Mei for their part swallowed saliva almost in unison while holding Xiauyue’s exquisite naked body when dressing her because although her curves were not as pronounced as Mei’s, they were still as tempting as the whisper of a succubus; perhaps her body was just like the flower that gave her name to the color of her hair and eyes ... like a delicate, elegant and beautiful lilac that did not need to radiate an exuberant sensuality for people to appreciate her beauty.

It was quite a shame that the view was too short for the tastes of the two of them, causing Desmond and Mei to give a disappointed sigh when they saw the last corner of Xiauyue’s bare skin being covered by the fabrics of her robe.

After seeing Xiauyue begin to adjust her robes on her own, an awkward silence ensued among the trio, until Desmond the master at changing the subject asked, “Did you manage to break your bottleneck?”

The question immediately attracted the attention of both girls who immediately closed their eyes and released their Ki trying to feel the changes within their bodies.

Seizing the opportunity Desmond pulled out the hunter’s book and discreetly checked the current status of the girls, being speechless when he saw the phrase “Two-star class” next to both girls’ names.

Regarding her bloodlines, these were not very different from what Desmond had expected after listening to Kryzsha, although it did give Desmond some ideas regarding the subject of bloodlines, of course, that would be a topic for another day.

Curious now by the changes he saw in the girls, Desmond proceeded to check his status in the hunter’s book.

<hunter: Desmond Astryd.

Title: Prometheus.

Strength level: one-star class, high-level.

Needless to say, the sudden appearance of a title caught Desmond’s attention and he wondered if this Greek mythology title was given to him as some kind of joke for his tendency to blow things up and set them on fire; he just hoped no one would chain him to a rock.

The next thing to catch his eye was the obvious increase in his overall strength, though instinctively Desmond knew that an enhancement like this was rare and would not be repeated as easily even with the consumption of valuable resources an adequate amount of time and training to adjust and control each increase in strength was still needed or he ran the risk of unexpected side effects based on what Desmond had learned from Elaisa.

Also from the record of his abilities Desmond had noticed a significant improvement in the mastery of his abilities related to the water element as well as the addition of a couple of abilities of the same element that Desmond had barely thought about, showing that with his current dexterity he was perfectly capable of executing such skills.

Desmond could only marvel at the hidden effects of the being worthy of the description given by the hunter’s book analysis function.

Separating his attention from himself, Desmond watched with some fascination as both girls displayed their own recently acquired understandings and abilities.

Mei now seemed to be able to control the awakened state of her bloodline with this being an improved version of the previous one very similar to when she was in her berserk state, with her glowing silver eyes with dragon pupils and the silver Ki forming scales mainly on her arms with some of these scales decorating the outer edge of their cheeks.

In Xiauyue’s case, the butterflies made of lilac Ki fluttered around her realistically leaving harmless-looking light pulses of Ki in their wake but having seen what the Xiauyue could do with their abilities by being mostly graceful and little dangerous in appearance; Desmond didn’t dare make any assumptions regarding her new ability.

Whatever the case, the trio just had quite a significant improvement in their overall strength so it was obvious that their mood was quite lighthearted until they saw a pair of sun-like eyes watching them with amusement.

“You guys are really carefree guests, giving yourself the luxury of using my house as a training room, aren’t you afraid your host will eat you all?” With a childish mockery, Kryzsha did her best to put on an evil face.

But Desmond responded almost immediately in a dismissive tone: “Would the state we’re in make a difference? The great goddess Kryzsha who ruled these mountains could eat us at any moment if she wanted to. ”

Vain as Kryzsha was, she has automatically filtered the sarcasm in Desmond’s tone and she nodded proudly patting her chest as she confidently said, “Don’t worry, the great and all-powerful Kryzsha would never sink that low, even if her guests passed a whole day locked up cultivating without warning ”
