Volume 1 Chapter 390

Chapter 390: This Is the Must-Have Opener for Accommodation!

"I… I guess I’m not really?"

Facing Ling’s questioning, Lolth immediately denied it.

However, feeling guilty about the wrongdoing, Lolth’s denial was not very strong.

After all, she knew well in her heart.

Ever since she had slept with Isabella, if she wasn’t a lesbian, what else could she be?

And this ambiguous denial did not stir any waves in Ling’s eyes.

She simply watched Lolth’s uneasy expression and thought for a moment.

"I see…"

A few seconds later, Ling reached a conclusion.

"Even if you’re a lesbian, I don’t mind being looked at. I won’t take everything off when I sleep at night," Ling said while patting the long weapon wrapped in a white cloth, "But if you want to get touchy with me… you probably won’t be able to defeat me."

Ling paused for a moment and added.

"Because I am at a high elite level, and you are just a beginner."

Clearly, she did not take Lolth’s natural strength seriously.

She did not believe Lolth’s claim of being a beginner elite or her own claim of being at a high elite level.

Lolth felt a bit awkward upon hearing what the other person said.

"I won’t sneak up on you, so don’t think too much about it," she sighed, "First of all, I am not a lesbian, and even if I were a lesbian…I wouldn’t necessarily be a desperate weirdo!"

"That’s true; I misspoke. I’m sorry."

Ling nodded gently at Lolth’s words and said.

Lolth’s words were indeed sincere.

After all, this room’s almost invisible "partition" structure is not very friendly to her.

Of course, it is not because she is wary of Ling or afraid that she might lose control upon seeing Ling’s body.

It’s because of this…

Lolth would no longer be able to remove her "disguise"!

After arriving in South Sotua, Lolth hid her small pointed horns and heart-shaped tail, which clearly showed her Abyssal Demon and succubus traits.

Since she was not skilled in changing her appearance or using magic to confuse others, Lolth relied on a transformation spell applied to her own body.

And this transformation spell…

Is very uncomfortable!

So Lolth often wanted to let her tail free while she was sleeping at night.

But now it definitely won’t work.

Although both of them are keeping a silent agreement not to ask where the other person got their money, if the other one sees the succubus tail…

Then they would likely face the fate of being reported, expelled, or even hunted down!

At that time, I would be in big trouble.

Even though I could escape with a space spell, it would all be for nothing.

And Lolth always feels that if he is exposed, it will bring him even more trouble.

Especially if his true identity is recognized… Considering his current notoriety, who knows how the forces of the main plane would imagine him!

Rumors and gossip could easily change and lead to several versions he never even thought of, and the news might reach the Demon Army, giving the Lord of the Demon King another excuse to promote him.

If the news from the Demon Army gets circulated back to the various forces on the mainland plane, the attention he and Hillenbrand Town receive might increase even more…

In short, it is definitely a vicious cycle!

Considering that there are not many succubi coming to the main plane, it seems that Lolth is the only one who knows, and if recognized as a succubus, it would be like revealing her true identity, so the chances are quite high!

"Then, I’ll stand on your left and you on my right."

After making up her mind not to reveal herself, Lolth said to Ling.

Ling nodded.

The two of them walked into the bedroom and did not close the curtains.

Lolth sat on the bed; it was not too soft or slippery, but the soft texture and moderate bounce felt very comfortable.

Next to the bed was a window with wooden lattice, and when opened, it revealed the paths and flowing water in the courtyard, as well as mossy stone steps.

The soothing sound of water and the cool breeze coming in made Lolth feel a bit relaxed.

After that, she looked to the end of the room.

There was another sliding door, with a small wooden sign hanging above it that said "Bathroom" in common language.

"It must be the bathroom."

After all, this suite costs five gold coins, so having a separate bathroom wasn’t surprising.

Lolth guessed.

Thinking this, Lolth looked to the other side of the curtain.

Ling was not on the bed in her side of the room, but standing at the end of that side.

The strange object wrapped in white cloth was leaning against the head of the bed, not in Ling’s hands.

From Lolth’s point of view, it seemed like she was holding a wooden basin and also standing at the end of the room.

Her figure looked a bit thin, and it seemed she had taken off the common gray mercenary uniform of South Sotua, and instead wore a light robe.

The sheer fabric at the bottom showed Ling’s pale legs and bare feet, proving this point.

However, Lolth did not look too much to avoid raising suspicion.

Soon, a sound of the door opening came from Ling’s side, as if she had entered the bathroom.

Lolth also thought for a moment.

"Hmm… I think I will take a bath too."

Lolth thought this as she stood up and walked towards the cabinet in the room.

When she opened the cabinet door, she indeed saw the wooden basin that Ling had held earlier, filled with fresh towels, soap, and a bathrobe.

This set proved one thing to Lolth.

Even in this time of not-so-advanced development, this room can indeed have a bath.

After all, using magic and extraordinary powers to have hot water available all the time is not a difficult task.

Lolth took out the wooden tub, and after removing her shoes and the warrior mercenary outfit, she revealed her pale body, which, although not perfectly fitting for a succubus, was still alluring.

"I love taking baths; it feels so good!"

Humming a tune, Lolth pushed open the sliding door with the sign that said "Cleanse."

What came into view was exactly what Lolth expected: a place to take a bath.

However, Lolth was mistaken about one thing.

That is, although the bedroom has a partition, this place is not a "private bathroom."

Instead, it is an outdoor hot spring pool.

At the end of the "White Poplar" courtyard, surrounded by lush trees, there are several irregular ponds made of bluestone, where steam rises or water mist gently escapes, with wooden barrels filled with cool water nearby.

But those things are not important.

What matters is…

In the pond with the thickest steam, there is Ling, with a towel on her head, her soft shoulders and face slightly red, looking surprised.
