“Hehe~ hehe~”
However, there wasn’t just one pervert.
Qingshamu was also constantly sneaking glances, unable to resist locking her gaze onto Feini’s petite figure.
Looking at that pale skin covered in sword scars, she couldn’t help but feel pity—and an uncontrollable urge to reach out.
But clever as she was, she even wore a mask in the women’s bathhouse.
No one could see her lecherous expression, no one noticed her gaze, and no one knew what she was looking at.
She could freely feast her eyes.
It seemed the mask was truly the Hero’s special weapon.
With it on, the Hero’s spatial scanning ability was boosted at least tenfold—Feini had nowhere to hide.
She wasn’t as bold as Fox Fox, only daring to stick close to Feini with her shoulder, truly innocent yet so shrimp-brained.
“……”
Feini could feel the barrage of stimulating gazes on her, goosebumps prickling all over, but she didn’t dare look around herself, afraid to invite trouble.
“Feini, Qingshamu, shall we go in?”
The one here with the purest heart and least desire was our original novel’s main heroine, Shijietang Simon.
She had no interest in the bodies of other girls; she wasn’t the “Queen of All Women” from the original work.
Of course, this was probably just temporary—she simply hadn’t awakened her yuri soul yet.
The four of them entered the bath, still wrapped in towels, pretending to be reserved, but two among them were already on the verge of losing control.
“Gugu~ gu~” Qingshamu swallowed hard.
Her drool was about to leak out from under the mask.
If anyone saw her broken expression, her “cool and aloof swordswoman” persona would collapse on the spot. She’d never make it as a Hero in this life.
“Wow…” Xueyuedai Emma also hurriedly put her hands down, turning her face away and biting her lower lip, barely holding herself back.
She also now realized that Feini’s body was completely different from what she’d imagined.
Right now, with her skinny, bony frame, there was nothing of that powerful, dark yuri vibe from the mental space.
This gave Fox Fox another unrealistic idea.
If you’re so strong in the mental space, but in the material world you’re just a frail weakling—doesn’t that mean I could use physical means to subdue you?
Turn defense into offense, break free of psychological shadows, and show off my womanly might!
All the humiliation of the past—let it become history.
“Ahh, this feels great. Truly a first-class bathhouse.”
Only Shijietang Simon was undistracted, soaking in the Rose Blossom Pool, letting her whole body relax and the fatigue melt away.
“Yeqi, Lianjian, don’t swim in the bath!” Feini nagged like an old mother, catching her mischievous teammates in the act.
“Got it.” “Okay.” The Golden Fang Beast Sisters listened obediently, not daring to cause trouble.
Remember at the very start, Feini used to be picked up in front of Yeqi and Lianjian like a little chick, and now she had turned the tables, becoming everyone’s mom.
Thank goodness for my world-shaking management wisdom. Without it, these beast-girl teammates would be impossible to handle.
The most well-behaved was her real daughter. White Feather Dove sat in the pool meditating, seizing every opportunity to cultivate.
No one else really had her talent; at any rate, neither Shijietang Simon nor Xueyuedai Emma could meditate anytime, anywhere like her.
After all, Magician meditation required a quiet, safe, and stable environment.
The slightest disturbance could disrupt it, causing magic power leakage—or worse, magical backlash, which would be a huge loss.
But White Feather Dove could ignore all interruptions, focused and unshakable, able to meditate anytime, anywhere.
That melancholy Saint Face of hers was just for show.
She was nothing like her Depressed Evil Father—her will was firm, never corrupted by external temptations, her goal to protect her family never wavered.
She was only driven by her pursuit of improvement and the growth of her magic power—nothing else could bring about such a state of mind.
In our gaming circles, such people are usually called the [Strongness Faction].
“Huu~” Feini also soaked in the pool, enjoying the moment—especially leaning against White Feather Dove for a strong sense of security.
Though everyone harbored their own secret thoughts, right now there was little conversation, no bickering or arguing; all simply enjoyed a rare moment of peace.
Only when everyone was fully warmed through did they reluctantly leave.
After all, this bath wasn’t cheap—who knew why it was so expensive to soak in a tub? Just because they added some herbs and flower petals?
The seven of them returned to the changing room, sat on the long bench to dry off, dried their hair, and even got a free glass of milk.
“Could it be this glass of milk that’s so expensive?” After everyone dressed, Feini was still bothered by the price.
“Didn’t we just make some money?” Shijietang Simon asked.
“Making money doesn’t mean it’s okay to get ripped off,” Feini replied. “Even with a discount coupon it’s this pricey. Wouldn’t it be better to spend it on a nice meal?”
“We’ll go with your plan,” Shijietang Simon said with a smile.
So, as expected, Feini led everyone out for a big meal, bringing them to a bustling hotpot restaurant.
Don’t ask why there’s a hotpot restaurant in another world—even Roman baths exist, and if you must ask, it’s magic.
The hotpot place was booming, nearly every table full, a sea of people. The seven of them had to wait a bit for a table.
The beast-girls had never tried hotpot before, eyes wide with curiosity, watching other Adventurers’ every move, seeing them use chopsticks to dip the meat in and swirl it around before eating.
“Don’t make a fuss, just wait a little longer. Almost there.”
With a whole team of hotpot newbies, Feini had no choice but to stand and help cook meat for these big eaters.
Plates and plates of meat arrived and were polished off in no time, then more arrived, quickly piling into a little mountain.
The nearby Adventurers were left staring in shock and amazement.
“Feini, I think we’re drawing suspicion. Should we stop eating?” Shijietang Simon whispered.
“It’s fine, don’t scare yourself. The more you mind other people’s gazes, the easier it is to get found out. The girls just have big appetites—there are plenty of big eaters among the humans too. We’ve got money now; everyone’s happiness is what matters,” Feini comforted her softly.
And truly, when Shijietang Simon observed the people around them, they really only looked a couple extra times, their eyes full of amazement and admiration—not fear.
That meant they hadn’t gone too far. Looks like Feini was right.
The boss came to settle the bill. “Looks like the little heroes are done eating.” Feini went to the counter.
“This meal’s on me, little heroes. The kingdom knights told me you saved the Kingdom of Huanxu.” The boss waved her off, refusing payment.
“That won’t do. It was our duty. We didn’t slay monsters and demons for our own convenience,” Feini insisted on paying.
“I’ll give you half off then,” the boss offered as a compromise.
“Alright, thank you, boss.” This time, Feini didn’t refuse.
After eating their fill, the seven Lost Beasts strolled through the park next door.
As they walked, they found themselves entering the Adventurer Association hall once again.
Feini went to the quest wall to look for suitable missions, her expression growing serious.
To avoid anyone getting Feini alone, Xueyuedai Emma and Qingshamu firmly stood on her left and right, practically acting like door gods.
Shijietang Simon, however, didn’t crowd Feini. She sat with the Golden Fang Beast Sisters and White Feather Dove at a table in the rest lounge.
Everyone held large milk teas they’d just bought, savoring the taste of human beverages.
After this day under Feini’s arrangements, it was simply too comfortable.
All the beast-girls had been managed into obedience by Feini—no more complaints at all.
