At five o'clock in the afternoon, Todd, who was restless, read the material report at a glance, and Long Feifengwu signed a series of opinions and threw them back to Ackerman.

The latter said while receiving the document: "Boss, the tribe has a celebration tonight, and the leaders hope to invite you to the banquet."

"Not tonight." Todd said categorically, "I have something."

Ackerman squeezed his eyebrows: "I heard that there are female slaves dancing without clothes..."

"No time."

Under Ackerman's surprised gaze, Todd strode out of the tribal hall and went straight back to the small building of the camp.

As soon as he opened the door and saw Rachel, who was lying on the table busy organizing papers, Todd crept past her behind and hugged the opponent with a pounce.

Rachel let out a scream, flipped his palm, and activated his mind. Todd's body floated into the air and after completing a 360-degree rotation, he fell heavily to the ground.

Rachel turned around and saw Todd lying on the ground grinning. He was so angry: "You almost scared me to death!"

Todd put on an innocent look on the ground: "You asked me to come to you."

"Tonight, I'm talking about tonight! It's only afternoon!" Rachel stretched out his leg and gave Todd another kick: "You used to come back after dark? Why did you come back so early today? ?!"

Todd said with a smile: "There are few things today, plus I can handle them quickly."

After saying this, he stood up and stretched his hands toward the corners of Rachel's skirt again.

The latter slapped his hand away and rolled his eyes at Todd: "What's the hurry! Hot water hasn't arrived yet."

"Hot water? What do you want hot water for?!"

"You have been busy recently, don't you plan to take a bath first?"

Todd reacted immediately, and said hurriedly: "It's good to take a bath, you should take a bath!"

"I have ordered the servants to prepare hot water. It will be delivered in about an hour or two."

"One or two hours?!" Todd's face collapsed in an instant: "Um...Rachel...actually think about it, it seems like that kind of thing, it doesn't matter if you don't take a shower beforehand..."

Rachel smiled and pushed Todd away, "That won't work, you go out first, find a place to kill the time, and come back when it's dark."

Todd wanted to argue something, but Richel involuntarily pushed out the small building.

Looking at the closed door behind him, Todd sighed helplessly, and wandered in the square boredly.

It happened that Ackerman walked across the square with a few gladiators, and saw Todd bowing and saluting.

Todd glanced at these people and asked casually, "Where are you going?"

Ackerman scratched the back of his head: "Boss, what I told you before... a tribal gathering."

"Oh?"

Ackerman leaned closer and added in a low voice: "Did you forget? The kind of slave girl dancing without clothes..."

Todd, with a depressed look, waved his hand vigorously: "Get out!"

After finally swaying outside until it was completely dark, Todd knocked on the door of the small building and heard Rachel's voice inside.

"Come in, the bedroom on the second floor."

Todd suppressed the unstoppable excitement, took three steps and made two steps, hurried up the stairs and walked into the bedroom on the second floor.

The diffuse water mist turned the entire room into a dreamlike space, and the faint fragrance of flowers spread to every corner.

Todd walked to the center of the room. A large bathtub with a length of two meters and a height of about eighty centimeters stood still there. The clear waves exuding warm water vapor and the delicate and fresh petals swayed gently with the water pattern. A candle surrounded the room, emitting a warm and ambiguous light.

Todd yelled softly, "Rachel?"

After a while, a low reply came from the room: "Come in the tub."

Todd swallowed, and after taking off all his clothes, he walked into the tub with a little nervousness and excitement.

The water temperature is neither high nor low, and the amount of water just fills the chest when a person sits in it.

Todd, who was completely surrounded by the warmth of the surroundings, put his arms on both sides of the bathtub, and put his head on the wooden mat behind him, raised his head to look at the ceiling, closed his eyes lightly, breathed out slowly, and temporarily forgot everything. Troubles. For him, being able to soak in a rare hot bath after being busy is really a great pleasure in the world.

After the body was completely relaxed, Todd's feet stretched forward, but they touched a soft object.

"What is it?" Todd was startled and straightened his upper body abruptly. After hesitating for a while, he put his hand in the water and leaned forward. His fingertips touched a piece of "black duckweed".

Suddenly, a woman who hadn't got a strand of water suddenly got out of the bath tub and splashed a large amount of water.

Her delicate features are flawless, her skin is as white as snow jade, and the blush on her cheeks makes her unable to look away. The long hold of breath makes her cough and gasp.

Seeing the appearance of the woman in the water, Todd took a breath: "Deirdre?!"

Looking at the man in front of her, Deirdre opened her eyes, her soft black hair was still dripping with warm water, her pink cheeks turned red because of her shyness, she screamed, and quickly covered the exquisite curves with her arms. Turning around, he turned Qirun's back, exuding a faint soft light, toward Todd.

The latter looked at the scene in front of him, his throat was a little dry, and his brain was in confusion: "Why are you... why are you here?"

"I asked her to come."

Rachel's voice sounded behind Todd, and a plump and warm body walked into the tub, clinging to the latter's back.

Seeing the shyness of the woman in front of him and feeling the snuggle of the woman behind him, Todd suddenly had a dreamlike illusion, and even his words were intermittent: "What is going on all this...?"

Hearing the words, Rachel put his head over Todd's shoulder, and his delicate and dripping lips whispered softly in the latter's ear: "Isn't this a tradition in another world?"

"Tradition from another world?" Todd came back somewhat: "I don't understand what you are talking about."

"At this time, do you still have to pretend to be stupid?" Rachel gently pinched Todd's neck with his fingers: "I have seen the treasures you have collected. There are a lot of memory mirrors in them. These things..."

At this time Todd wanted to cry without tears: "Rachel, I think you have misunderstood, the thing you said is not traditional at all..."

Listening to the dispute between the two behind him, Deirdre looked back cautiously, and happened to meet Todd's eyes~lightnovelpub.net~ so scared that he turned back quickly.

Todd stared at the woman ahead: "Then how do you explain her matter?"

Rachel stretched out his hand and mentally adjusted Deirdre, who was curled up on the edge of the tub, to force her to face herself: "Todd, this is a poor woman. She has been because of the psychic on her body since she was a child. Yes, everyone regards her as a cursed individual. Do you really think that her father and her people regard her as the same kind? They forbid her to use abilities, completely deny her talent, and make her compromise in inferiority and self-blame. Define yourself as a superfluous existence."

Rachel looked at the shy and sad face in front of him, and said calmly to Todd: "Look at her, talk to the dead, summon the souls of the dead, will anyone in this world accept such a woman as a partner? Perhaps the only one who can bring her happiness and peace to her is you...or do you plan to let her feel sorry for herself and die alone?"

Todd shook his head slightly: "Rachell, you may be right, but feelings should not be based on needs."

"So you worried that she was forced?" Rachel chuckled lightly and said to Deirdre: "Go ahead, tell him."

Deirdre, who buried his body in the water, blushed and shook his head desperately: "No one...forces me..."

Rachel lightly bit Todd's earlobe, looked at the surprised expression close at hand, and murmured: "My love, life is like a faint night and a setting sun. Take good care of everything tonight. Every second..."

With a splash of water on his arm, the candle in the room was instantly extinguished, leaving only the entangled souls in the dark. ()
