"Are you done?"
"Cough cough, yes. I just saw something dirty on Hana-chan's feet. Don't get the wrong idea."
"Oh~"
"Cough cough, it's so hot, why don't we take a bath?" Ho Fei-yu saw the expression on Hanasaku Tenkawa's face, which seemed to say, 'I almost believed your nonsense,' and blushed, quickly changing the subject.
"Sure."
"By the way, Fei-yu-kun, do you want to join me?"
"Uh... Do you mind?"
"Mmm, I don't mind, oh. Anything is fine, as long as it's you, Fei-yu-kun~"
"Yes." Ho Fei-yu heard the girl's straightforward words and his mind raced for a moment, struggling between yes and no. In the end, he followed his heart, as the girl's Affection Level for him had reached 95, which meant a life-or-death devotion. Bathing together was a small matter.
"In that case, I'll go get your change of clothes, Fei-yu-kun. You're about as tall as my father, so they should fit." Hana-chan took off her socks, put on her slippers, and scurried upstairs, returning with several sets of men's clothing.
"Let's go." Ho Fei-yu followed Hanasaku Tenkawa, who was holding the clothes, toward the bathroom.
"Fei-yu-kun, please toss your removed clothes here. I'll wash them later."
"Oh, alright." Ho Fei-yu stripped himself bare quickly and looked at Hana-chan, finding she was only wearing a pink panty and bra.
"Do I... look good?" Hanasaku Tenkawa asked with a blush.
The girl's skin, like ice and jade, shimmered with a beautiful, moving, white-jade luster under the bathroom light, making her look like a celestial being.
"Beautiful." Ho Fei-yu swallowed hard and said.
The girl didn't answer after hearing Ho Fei-yu's words. Instead, she walked to the bathtub and turned on the hot water.
"Fei-yu-kun, let me scrub your back first. We can get in after the water is ready."
"Okay." Ho Fei-yu sat down on the stool the girl had brought.
From behind, he heard the sound of the girl squeezing shower gel, then the water running, and finally the sound of her rubbing her hands together.
Ho Fei-yu felt a pair of small hands, covered in shower gel, starting to glide across his back. Since this was his first time enjoying such service, his back unconsciously stiffened for a moment, but under the girl's skillful hands, he soon relaxed.
Suddenly, the girl's hands moved away from his back. Ho Fei-yu felt a strange sense of reluctance. But in a moment, the rubbing sensation returned, and after scrubbing for a while, Ho Fei-yu noticed something amiss: the contact area had increased, and two small, firm granules were faintly scraping against his back. As he recalled scenes from the adult films he watched in his past life on Earth, a fire spontaneously ignited within him, and the Lava Colossus Dragon was awakened.
The wonderfully comfortable feeling continued on his back. The two small, smooth, jade-like hands moved down Ho Fei-yu's waist, gradually finding his lower abdomen, rubbing his abs. Ho Fei-yu was completely immersed.
One soft, slippery little hand slowly moved down the lower abdomen—
And grasped his future.
"Do you like it, Fei-yu-kun?"
"Aah!"
"What's wrong? ...So that's your secret, Fei-yu-kun..." Hanasaku Tenkawa had been speaking close to Ho Fei-yu's ear, but when she felt his body tremble and let out an ambiguous moan, her hand shook as well. She seemed to realize something, and a smile appeared on her face.
"Hmph~"
"Stop! Don't keep blowing on my... my ear."
"Aah!"
After more than ten minutes, Hanasaku Tenkawa rinsed off her hands. She looked at the limp Ho Fei-yu, a silly smile appearing on her pure, white face. She hadn't expected Fei-yu-kun, who usually exuded masculinity and security, to have such a weakness.
"Fei-yu-kun, time for the bath."
"No—huh? Oh."
"Hehe." Hanasaku Tenkawa couldn't help but laugh at Ho Fei-yu's broken appearance.
"Fei-yu-kun, when you take a bath, you must immerse everything below your neck in the water. That's the most comfortable way."
"Okay, I'll try."
"Phew." Ho Fei-yu took Hanasaku Tenkawa's advice and tried it, finding it genuinely comfortable. He let out a sigh of stale air, feeling his strength return. Hanasaku Tenkawa had almost turned him into a slime just now.
His weakness was terrifying. If all his future women knew about it, wouldn't he be doomed? He absolutely couldn't let anyone else know!
Ho Fei-yu silently swore to himself.
"Hana-chan, now it's my turn to scrub your back." Ho Fei-yu noticed Hanasaku Tenkawa's large chest and the full fruits on it, and couldn't help but want to try something. He cheekily suggested.
"Alright." Hanasaku Tenkawa turned from facing him to having her back toward him, fully exposing her smooth, tender back.
"Is that comfortable?"
"Yes, very."
"Can I wash your front too?" Ho Fei-yu probed, pushing his luck.
"My front? You can, oh."
"Anything is fine, as long as Fei-yu-kun likes it." The girl's words, full of affection, entered Ho Fei-yu's ears.
"Mmm."
"Then let's start from here." Ho Fei-yu reached his devil's claw through her armpit.
"Mmm..." Hanasaku Tenkawa's body trembled slightly.
Ho Fei-yu applied a little force, and his finger sank in, like soft, pliable clay. He felt like his hand was melting.
"So Fei-yu-kun likes this area? I thought you liked my feet the most!"
"Cough cough, I like both. The main thing is that they're yours, Hana-chan." The fire in Ho Fei-yu's body reignited, burning fiercer than before. His hand was no longer satisfied and trailed along the girl's smooth skin downward—
"Mmm..." Hanasaku Tenkawa's body trembled slightly but didn't react too much. Ho Fei-yu became even more brazen.
"Hana-chan walked for so long just now, so this area must be dirty too. Let me wash it thoroughly for you...."
"Y-yes... you... can... oh." Hanasaku Tenkawa turned her head back. Her purple eyes were moist and hazy.
Ho Fei-yu was in the middle of his mischief, but when the girl turned her head, the two were very close, their hot breaths striking each other's faces. An ambiguous atmosphere arose. He looked at the girl's lips, his heart stirred greatly.
A thought to completely possess this kind and beautiful girl suddenly welled up in Ho Fei-yu's heart.
"Hana-chan..."
"Fei-yu-kun..."
Ho Fei-yu's large face leaned toward Hanasaku Tenkawa, whose eyes were already closed.
"Chew... Mmm... Chew..." The fervent emotions of the two were expressed through their tightly connected lips.
They separated.
"Fei-yu-kun, please... take... me..."
"Are you sure?"
"Mmm." Ho Fei-yu heard the girl's words and immediately turned her body around so they were facing each other.
Their lips met again, but unlike the last time...
The Lava Colossus Dragon awoke in the unfamiliar passage of the Peach Blossom Spring. It looked around at the strange surroundings, somewhat confused, but its survival instinct guided it toward every Peach Blossom Spring.
This time, the Peach Blossom Spring passage was different from the last. The last entrance was loose, and the passage wasn't too narrow, completely accommodating its full form. But this passage was a bit narrow and had a layer of barrier. However, this was child's play for it. A small bump from it and the barrier was broken, though this was accompanied by the contraction of the passage.
The walls of the passage severely squeezed it, making it uncomfortable. There also seemed to be suction cup-like things, giving it enormous friction, making every movement difficult.
But the Dragon's longing for freedom and its desire for life could not be stopped by this small difficulty.
Retreat! Charge!
This continued for an unknown amount of time until it finally poked its head out of the Peach Blossom Spring's exit and saw the light. Even though only a tiny bit was out, it meant a greater possibility of survival for its descendants. It opened its large mouth and sprayed the descendants hidden inside, then retreated sadly.
This beautiful place was clearly not meant for it, but that was enough! For its descendants! For the next generation! Everything was worth it.
"Are you tired, Hana-chan?"
"N-not really..."
"As long as Fei-yu-kun is happy, I'm fine with anything."
"Silly girl..." Ho Fei-yu held Hanasaku Tenkawa in his arms, looking at her flushed cheeks, listening to her rapid breathing, and the words on her lips that still centered on him. The love in his heart surged, sweeping through his entire body.
"If you're tired, just sleep. I'll stay with you tonight."
"Mmm..." Ho Fei-yu felt the girl's breathing gradually smooth out. He picked her up, carefully wiped her body with a bath towel, and carried her back to her bedroom. He then returned to the bathroom to clean the water in the tub.
Ho Fei-yu looked at the blood and other things floating on the water surface and pulled the plug. He understood that this girl was the person he had to protect with all his heart and soul for the rest of his life.
He put on the clothes Hanasaku Tenkawa had brought, returned to the girl's side, held her body close, and covered them with the thin blanket.
Ho Fei-yu opened the System and examined it carefully. His physical attributes and personal inventory hadn't changed. He then clicked on the System Shop and scrolled left and right. In addition to the Doraemon, Kamen Rider, and Jojo's Bizarre Adventure modules, a module called [Halo Boost] had also lit up.
It seemed to have been activated after he eliminated the Evil God's intrusion that led to the attempted NTR. Ho Fei-yu clicked on it out of curiosity.
After a moment of transition, he saw what was available.
Protagonist Halo, Villain Halo, Intellect Reduction Halo, Succubus Halo, Reverse Harem Halo, Bad Luck Halo, Good Luck Halo, and more.
Ho Fei-yu roughly counted about twenty different types.
He clicked on a few that interested him.
[Protagonist Halo: A byproduct of the Protagonist Law. Do you also want to become the protagonist? Buy it now! Effects include: - Can still fight when severely injured or near death (80% chance to increase basic attributes by 5-10 times) (Passive Skill) - Unconditionally and unreasonably liked by all female characters (Passive Skill) - Cannot die no matter how many times you are hit; if killed, you will resurrect (Passive Skill) - Miracles happen as you wish, no matter how low the probability (Passive Skill) [Price: 50 Law of Power]

(Passive Skill) - Female targets who engage in intercourse share 20% of the Halo owner's basic attributes (Passive Skill) - Female targets who engage in intercourse share the Halo owner's vitality (Passive Skill) [Price: 1 Law of Power]
Ho Fei-yu spent dozens of minutes reading through everything. He realized that he could only afford the [Succubus Halo], which cost only 1 point, and he just happened to have 1 point. He suspected this was a System perk, as he currently lacked the means to protect his important people. It seemed like the System had delivered a pillow just as he felt sleepy.
Ho Fei-yu happily exchanged for the [Succubus Halo].
He gently lifted the thin blanket covering the girl. A beautiful, tempting naked body was revealed before him. He suppressed his heart's racing and carefully examined the girl's entire body, but found no sign of a pink tattoo. He was a little confused.
Ho Fei-yu covered the girl's body with the blanket again. He pondered for a moment, stroking his chin. He finally concluded that it probably required engaging in intercourse after acquiring the halo, and previous times didn't count.
He was eager to try it out, but seeing the girl's peaceful face, he suppressed his impulse. After all, it was the girl's first time. He would wait until she was well-rested.
Time flew by quickly. The sun set, and dusk approached from afar, passing by the towering buildings, then pressing its bright, crimson face against all the windows, as if listening in.
Unknowingly, it was already seven o'clock.
"Mmm~" Hanasaku Tenkawa slowly opened her hazy eyes. A warm temperature radiated from the naked body pressed against hers, making her let out a sweet moan involuntarily.
"Are you awake?"
"Mmm." She heard the familiar voice and couldn't help but burrow closer to him, snuggling more tightly, a look of contentment on her pretty face.
"You're still sleeping. You won't be able to sleep tonight."
"It's fine. As long as Fei-yu-kun is with me~"
"Shh, don't make a sound. I need to make a phone call." Ho Fei-yu heard the girl's words and affectionately stroked her head. He suddenly remembered something, immediately picked up his phone, and checked the calls. He saw he had ten missed calls. Mitsuko-san accounted for nine, and the other was from President Reika Kurashiki. He instructed the girl not to speak, afraid the jar of vinegar at home would overhear.
Hanasaku Tenkawa nodded obediently.
Ho Fei-yu dialed Mitsuko Gunma's number. It was answered in less than a few seconds, and Mitsuko-san's gentle voice came through the phone. Feeling a little guilty, he briefly and vaguely summarized what had happened the previous night. He also skillfully mentioned that he wouldn't be coming home tonight. He braced himself for a storm of scolding from Mitsuko-san, but unexpectedly, Mitsuko-san only instructed him to be careful and make sure to eat well.
Although they were just trivial matters, Ho Fei-yu still felt a deep sense of maternal love. Even though she was his adoptive mother, he was deeply touched, wishing he could lie on Mitsuko-san's soft lap and confess the truth, then properly repent.
"Let's go, time to eat. Let me try Hana-chan's cooking. See if you can become a good, virtuous wife." Ho Fei-yu hung up the phone, turned his head, and saw Hanasaku Tenkawa pulling the blanket up to her nose, looking like a well-behaved child. He chuckled, playfully pinching her nose, and teased her.
"Mmm!" Hanasaku Tenkawa nodded emphatically, a serious look on her face, and made a fist gesture as if cheering herself on.
