My Girlfriend is an S-Class Adventurer-Chapter 2 Home Sweet Home
A large basin of hot water was the only thing Luke needed after a tiring day. Yes, he was hungry, but it wasn't as if he looked forward to eating the same stew every day. π§ππ²π¦π πππ£oπ«π²π.πoπ
The sound of water falling on the wooden floor of the bathroom, crackled loudly. Splashhhhh!
Perhaps because he was half-wolf, Luke sweated much more than most, and the fur on his tail also needed to be washed quite often to keep it silky, so he was the only one among the men in the pack who bathed every day.
The others, even after arriving soaked from the rain, preferred to leave this kind of thing for the weekend or when they were very tired. Besides Luke, Meredith was also the only person in the gang who took a bath every day, because she is also a half-beast and has the same problems.
From the cold wind coming in through the window, Luke felt that the rain would continue until the next day. Which also meant that it would be another day that he would have his skills reduced.
While trying to scrub his own back, Luke dropped his soapstone on the floor, and it slid toward the door. Someone coincidentally knocked on the door at the same moment. Knock! Knock! Knock!
"Luke, is everything okay?" Meredith asked.
"Yeah, I'm just finishing up!"
The girl opened the bathroom door to check if everything was okay. They had known each other for years, so they were intimate about it, and she was already too stressed to have to wait long for her shower.
However, to balance the scales of the universe, if Luke as a thief was a professional, as a man he was someone with a total of zero experience. Therefore, he was also someone who was very shy when alone between four walls with a woman.
"Go quickly and leave some water for me. Ah, you dropped your soap! Let me get it for you." Meredith, who was wearing only a towel, went into the bathroom to pick up the soapstone from the floor.
The half-wolf took a brief look at his childhood friend's breasts, blushed, and after taking a brief look between his own legs, gave himself a punch so hard that it made him fall off the stool he was sitting on. That was the way he found to control himself.
"Did you slip?" Meredith asked worriedly, seeing Luke in that situation.
He remained inexpressive as he nodded, and in the end, stretched out his arm for her to return the soap.
The girl, who had known Luke for over sixteen years, had only seen him so embarrassed in this kind of situation. She knew he was nervous because his two wolf ears were as red as a Samurai Pepper.
Faced with a rare opportunity, she proposed: "Luke, will you let me wash your back?"
The boy arched his eyebrows, pondered, and after a few moments, replied:
"No, I can do that for myself."
The half-wolf, having grown up on the streets, had a habit of wanting to look strong, so even though he wanted a beautiful half-naked girl to rub his back, he couldn't admit it.
Meredith, seeing him look vulnerable for the first time in a long time, felt she had just found a new hobby. Since she was determined to see more of those reactions, she decided to blackmail him.
Leaning forward a little, she asked as she waggled her tail: "If you're not going to let me wash your back, I'll have to pay you a little visit in your room later."
Without hesitation, he stood up and sat down with his back to her. He had no choice but to accept it, in the moment the half-fox leaned over, it felt like her towel was about to fall off and, in those milliseconds, Luke imagined a reality where that happened and got so turned on, that he almost had a nosebleed.
As Meredith began rubbing the soap on her friend's back, she remembered how full of scars he was. There were marks from blade cuts, claw cuts, open wounds, and even bites, not only on his back, but all over his abdomen. It was amazing that he was still alive, being so unlucky.
Luke's whole body showed his experience. Even though he was about to turn twenty in just a few months, he already seemed to have lived a long time, both by the look in his eyes and by his reactions to every kind of situation.
Except when Meredith would playfully play with her breasts on his back, and internally amuse herself with the little shakes the boy gave.
Splashh! "Okay, I think I'm done." spoke the half-fox after throwing some water on Luke's back.
"Thanks." He replied, getting up.
"Hey, hey, hey! Let's hide the Big Bad Wolf, please?"
"You say that now?" Luke, who already had realized that his friend was having fun with his reactions, questioned looking into her eyes.
"Okay, I admit that I deserve to be judged⦠You can go, now it's my turn to take a shower."
Luke quickly exited the bathroom and closed the door. With his ears nearly purple, his brain about to go fuzzy, and his heart racing, he leaned against the wall so as not to faint by the variety of possibilities of things that could have happened in this bathroom.
"Hey, Luke! Haven't you changed your clothes yet?! Come on down! Matthew has arrived with good news!" said Ynosuke at the foot of the staircase leading to the second floor.
"I'll be right down, hold on."
Now, the only thing Luke could think of was what he was going to say to try to convince his friends that the plan to rob a gene wagon was dumb, even for the best gang of thieves in Oukiwa.
A Noble Family like the Strogueher, besides having their own fortress within the city, also has dozens of personal guards, outsourced guards, and also Adventurers at their disposal. For them, it would be easy to protect a gene load from six thieves.
