Field brought over a basin of warm water, soaking two clean towels in it before wringing them out.
She handed one to Alice.
At this moment, Alice had also removed all the clothing from Liakade’s body, revealing her small, pale figure once more before the two of them.
But this time, they weren’t undressing Liakade for pleasure—they were preparing to wash away the bloodstains.
There was no trace of desire in their eyes, only love and tenderness for Liakade.
Neither of them spoke, simply and quietly wiping the blood from Liakade’s body, little by little.
Field, through the towel, gently stroked the red, slightly raised blood scabs on Liakade’s fragrant shoulder, feeling a pang of sorrow.
Although Liakade could regenerate, that didn’t mean she didn’t feel pain.
At that time, Liakade had her arm severed by Darkness and her chest pierced through.
How could she not feel pain?
She simply suppressed it for Alice and the others’ sake, not wanting them to worry.
It wasn’t until Korim was summoned that Liakade’s mind finally relaxed.
Even during Liakade’s unconsciousness, her regeneration seemed to be working weakly; when Field applied a bit more force, the scabs showed signs of peeling off.
“Hmm… Field, should we remove these scabs from Liakade’s body?”
Alice, wiping Liakade’s front, noticed the same thing and asked Field’s opinion.
“Let’s take them off. Liakade’s wounds have mostly healed.”
“Okay.”
Field didn’t use much force, just gently wiping with the towel on Liakade’s shoulder, and the scabs came away.
Beneath the scabs was new, pale flesh, slightly lighter than Liakade’s skin, but nearly matching.
With her regenerative ability, the scars should disappear completely in a few days.
As Field and Alice carefully cleaned her, the blood and scabs were finally wiped clean from Liakade’s body.
Not only that, Alice also combed Liakade’s hair, smoothing out her silken white locks.
“What’s… this?”
Field was about to put sleepwear on the unconscious Liakade, but as she brought the clothes over, she noticed a faint mark on Liakade’s lower abdomen.
“Eh? W-wait, Field, don’t touch it!”
Seeing Field reach for the mark, Alice hurried to stop her.
Only then did she remember the existence of the mark on Liakade, recalling what happened when she touched it that day.
That day, Alice had intended to bring Liakade breakfast, but when she got up, her curiosity led her to touch the mark on Liakade’s abdomen—and then her behavior grew strange.
Although Alice didn’t realize at the time that the mark was responsible, upon reflection, she became convinced her abnormal actions were related to it.
Even though Alice shouted, it was already too late.
Field’s slender finger touched the mark.
As soon as Field touched it, the blurry mark became clearer.
“…Liakade?”
Alice looked at Field, finally understanding her own state back then.
She saw Field, who had touched the mark, suddenly go blank, her eyes tinged with a faint peach-pink—just like Liakade’s eyes when she was overcome with desire.
Field swallowed.
Liakade’s lower abdomen felt so soft and smooth that Field couldn’t help but want to touch it again.
She set the sleepwear aside.
To Field now, Liakade was like a soft, sweet cream cake, and the slightly raised mound was both a decoration and a delicious cherry on top.
To put clothes on Liakade would be like putting the cake in a box.
How could Field taste it if it was hidden away?
She gazed at Liakade’s small, sleeping face.
Liakade looked so peaceful and calm, like Sleeping Beauty from a fairy tale, waiting for the prince’s kiss to awaken her.
But for Liakade, there was no need for a prince—this Princess was more than enough.
Besides, this Princess’s kisses weren’t limited to Liakade’s lips, either.
Field slowly leaned down, wanting to touch Liakade’s cherry lips.
“Field! Stop!”
Alice quickly grabbed Field from behind.
“Liakade is still unconscious, and her body is weak. You can’t do this. What if she gets hurt?”
Although Liakade once told Alice she wanted to experience the feeling of sleep X, wasn’t that just Liakade teasing her?
Besides, Liakade wasn’t merely asleep—she was in a coma from depleted magic, stamina, and spirit.
Doing anything now would definitely harm her!
“…Alice, I know.”
“Then stop!”
Alice sighed with relief, thinking Field had returned to normal, but Field’s next words left her both amused and exasperated.
“I know, Alice wants to enjoy Liakade together, right? It’s okay. Liakade belongs to both of us. Let’s enjoy her together.”
Field turned around, her eyes dreamy, and grabbed Alice instead.
“Alice, are you shy? I’ll help you. Let you enjoy Liakade first.”
“Eh!? N-no, that’s not it!”
Seeing Field not only fail to recover but now grab her, Alice panicked.
Last time, just a little movement from Liakade snapped her back to her senses, but this time, even holding Field didn’t work.
Besides, judging from Field’s words, she wanted Alice to go first.
Alice didn’t want to do anything with Liakade while she was so weak.
Could it be…?
Suddenly, Alice realized something.
She quickly covered herself with Light Element, then transferred it to Field.
At that moment, Field stiffened, and the pink color in her eyes faded.
Just as Alice suspected.
Last time, she had recovered quickly because of her own Light Element.
This was actually a form of Liakade’s Mental Attack.
After Alice transferred Light Element to Field, Field returned to normal.
“…What… is this?”
Field’s eyes gradually cleared as she let go of Alice in confusion.
“Whew… finally back to normal.”
Alice finally let out a breath and explained to Field.
“Field, never touch the mark on Liakade’s stomach. You’ll be affected by her.”
“…No wonder.”
Field recalled her strange actions just now and finally understood.
She was relieved that Alice had stopped her in time, so she hadn’t harmed the fragile Liakade with her desires.
If her actions had hurt the weakened Liakade, Field would never forgive herself.
“When did this mark appear? I swear it wasn’t there before.”
“That mark appeared the day Liakade gained a new ability. She told you all about the new ability, but not about the mark itself.”
Alice explained to Field.
“I see… Geez, even unconscious, this girl is still a mischievous little fairy.”
Field grumbled as she dressed Liakade in her sleepwear, covering the mark.
But…
Alice and Field seemed to have overlooked something.
This was Liakade’s unconscious instinct inviting the two of them.
Isn’t it possible that such pleasure wouldn’t actually harm her body at all?
