Chapter 328: A well-deserved rest

Chapter 328: A well-deserved rest

I spent almost the whole day soaking in the hot springs and managed to relax a bit.

My injuries continue to give me a bad migraine, but the throbbing pain has subsided. That shit felt like barbed wire moving inside the folds of my brain.

"Luis, it's time for dinner" – The little spirit entered the hot spring area without caring that I was naked.

I've only been here for half a day, but in this time, she seems to have grown fond of me. Not in a romantic sense, but in the kindness that a grandmother has towards her grandchildren.

Chitose made sure to bring me a green tea made with medicinal herbs that help relieve stress, she also gave me rice crackers with healing magic that can relieve mental fatigue, and physical pain and heal superficial wounds.

To tell the truth, all this is useless. The severity of my injuries and migraine is something that even System Goddess can't heal, so Chitose's items are totally useless to me.

Still, I thanked the little woman and enjoyed the peaceful time.

Umaru noticed that my mental state is really bad, so she avoided making noise and went to enjoy the time together with Ina, Medaka, and Miyu.

My sister is a spoiled and silly brat, but she can sometimes be a considerate brat.

"Thank you" – I smiled toward Chitose and stood up.

Despite her childlike appearance, Chitose is a mature-minded adult woman, so she wasn't embarrassed by seeing me totally naked, her gaze was only focused on my injuries.

These hot springs are healing and can be considered a valuable natural treasure, so she is worried that my injuries are not getting better.

I have not used [Mythomania] to completely disappear my injuries, I will leave these marks on my body to give myself a permanent reminder....

I must never let my guard down, there will always be dangers that threaten my wives........

"Luis" – Tsubaki sighed.

I smiled bitterly, my mind still unstable.

Tsubaki, Yoko, and Nia were relaxing next to me.

Nia is still a little sad because she feels that she is tarnishing the memory of the only man she has ever loved.

Despite my mental instability, I have no problem with Nia continuing to love Simón since she has already accepted to be my faithful and loyal wife. The fact that I allowed her to continue to love Simón made her feel more comfortable with me, after all, it showed that I don't see her as a tool or a trophy.

The reason why I'm not worried is that Simon's soul was destroyed and he won't be able to reincarnate, it's a waste of time to be jealous of a dead man.

And well, if by any chance Simón is still alive.... He will be food.......

On the other hand, Yoko refuses to talk to me. She says that she hates me with all her heart and she only feels disgusted towards my presence, but she constantly watches me with concern as she doesn't want my injuries to get worse.

Yoko is a stubborn woman with a will of steel, but she has a sensitive heart that makes her unable to abandon her loved ones. Although she still hates me, I also became one of the most important people to her.

Yoko doesn't love me romantically, but she will do everything she can to help me since she sees me as a valued friend and comrade.

For her part, Tsubaki is happy that two kind and sane women are by my side. She's still worried that my mind will be corrupted by the stupidities of Navi, BB, and the other troublesome women.

"Could you look away?" – Nia spoke to me with slight embarrassment.

She keeps covering her body even though I know every part of her skin. She's kind of adorable.

"I'll go ahead, I'll see you in the dining room" – I smiled slightly and used [Rasen] to dry my body, then covered my body with a traditional Japanese robe.

This is my first time visiting an onsen, but I have researched the traditions of this kind of place.

I accompanied Chitose toward the dining room.

Chitose already knows that I'm an outstanding chef, but I'm on vacation so I don't plan to cook.

Umaru and Navi are constantly crying because their food reserves have decreased, but I'll ignore that pair of idiots.

"How was the water?" – Chitose asked me kindly as we headed towards the dining room.

"It was very great" – I stretched out my arms with satisfaction, it's nice to have a break.

"I'm glad you enjoy it" – Chitose showed a kind smile.

Now that I've gotten over my hatred of motherhood, I find Chitose's motherly attitude soothing.

I don't need to think about all my actions to manipulate people, I don't need to lie in every word I say, I don't need to calculate the benefits of each of my actions, I don't need to take care of troublesome idiots or noisy brats... The holidays are wonderful.

Chitose and I arrived at the dining room. She had already served the food, so I just sat and ate in silence.

In the past, cats hated me because of my presence as a reincarnation of Ortro, but now the animals are attracted to me.

On the one hand, men with animal features look at me with suspicion, fear, and hostility since they see me as a predator that is going to steal their territory, on the other hand, women with animal features feel attracted to me since their instincts mark me as the right male to procreate.

Yaya is human, but the influence of the Cat God has restructured her soul and mind, so she is guided by her instincts over her rationality.

I usually like women with subtle animal features as they are wilder in bed, but I'm on vacation right now.

"Let's talk later, now it's time for dinner" – I sighed.

Yaya seemed dissatisfied with my answer, so I used the same tactic I learned to reassure beastskin women.

I put my hand on Yaya's head and started stroking her hair until she started purring.

Yaya is cute, but this is not the same feeling as stroking a cat.

I regret leaving Yoruichi in the apartment, it would be nice to stroke her fur in her cat form.

We finished eating, but Ortro had crumbs in her mouth so I wiped her face with a handkerchief.

Miyu is too mature for her age, but she left food traces on her face on purpose. This brat is staring at me.

I feel like I forgot something...

Have I re-sealed my skills that affect women who are interested or curious about me?

Ah, whatever, I'm too tired to review, I just want to relax.

I wiped Miyu's face and she seemed happy.

Now that I think about it, she's cute when she acts like a girl her age.

Children who have overdeveloped mental maturity are less annoying because they don't make noise and avoid tantrums, but it is uncomfortable to see a brat who has the mentality of an adult. Brats should do brat things while adults solve problems...

"Hey Listen! Muahahahaha, ghosts produce ectoplasm when excited!" – Navi suddenly appeared while the dead girl was chasing him.

"D-Don't say it!" – Yuuna was in a panic as she chased after Navi.

It already seemed to me that that idiot had been too calm...

"Muhahaha! It's a waste for a woman with big breasts and an attractive face to die a virgin, but don't worry, my partner is a necrophiliac so he'll be sure to put your holes to use!" – Navi was laughing like a psychopathic arsonist who just set fire to a school full of children.

... This smell...

My body made of black blood is technically a spirit body so I can have sex with ghosts.

The vaginal fluids of a ghost woman have a slightly soft and less bitter smell, it is something more like the flowers of a pantheon.

Yuuna was masturbating?

Navi must have shown him one of the videos where I am with my wives.....

Oh, whatever.

I ignored Navi and stood up, then smiled at Chitose. - "Thanks for the food"

Chitose smiled kindly. – "I am glad you liked it, if you need something do not hesitate to ask"

I nodded. – "Can I spend the night in the hot springs?"

"Uh? You will not sleep?" – Chitose asked with confusion.

"Onii-chan doesn't sleep" – Umaru stopped talking to Naoko and smiled wryly. – "Onii-chan is a workaholic, he is the stereotype of a Japanese salaryman and since we were children I have never seen him sleep more than two hours"

My habit of only sleeping through micro naps is something I learned as a child, so my brain was failing from an early age. I can even assure that many of my mental illnesses began because of neural damage.

Chitose looked at me with concern to which I sighed and smiled softly. – "Don't worry, I just need to relax a bit"

I'm not in the mood to think about other people's feelings, so I headed to the hot spring and relaxed again.

I can't sleep, but I closed my eyes and enjoyed the silence for the whole night.

Sometimes some people would come to see me, either to ask me questions or just to look at me. Despite that, I kept my eyes closed and gave short answers, I just want to rest.

That's how I spent a quiet night, the most peaceful night I've ever had in my entire life....

It was relaxing.
