Abyssal Chronicles

'Huh?'

'Does Liyu usually have such a violent personality?'

Watching the beast-eared girl vanishing into the sky, Yumo picked herself up from the ground, momentarily at a loss for words.

Meanwhile, after throwing her own sister, Liyu hurriedly came to Yumo's side crouched down in front of her with great worry.

"Mom, are you okay?! That sister of mine is too impatient! You've just transformed, and your body isn't stable yet, and she just barged in with all her power!"

Surveying the chaotic landscape around them, Liyu's verdant eyes flared with anger.

Seeing Liyu's adorable, pouting face as she rebuked her sister, Yumo couldn't help but smile.

Indeed, she was rather exhausted after transforming, and her mental power and shadow energy within her body had been significantly drained.

Limo's reckless charge was really inappropriate. But to be honest, she didn't feel any discomfort at all, not even a smidge of pain when Limo collided with her earlier.

Keep in mind, Limo's physical strength is among the strongest of the Demon Kings within Demon Kings.

Even her unconscious charge is enough to crush a Saint-rank(7th level) being into pieces...

Yet here she is, unscathed.

'It seems that this new body is much stronger than I thought?'

"Then, what rank am I now? Demon King?"

Staring at her delicate, fragile-looking hands, Yumo lapsed into a momentary reflection.

However, Yumo's silence left Liyu feeling anxious, fearing that her mother had indeed been injured by her reckless sister.

If that was the case, she would undoubtedly team up with her other siblings to pin that foolish sister down and teach her a lesson!

In her anxiety, Liyu grabbed Yumo's hand and asked.

"Mom!,Mom!, Are you alright? Did you get hurt?"

"Huh?"

At Liyu's question, Yumo snapped out of her world and looked at the grey-haired girl, who wore a worried expression.

She then gently stroked Liyu's small head with her hand.

"I'm fine. Your silly sister didn't harm me. Don't worry."

"Sigh...okay"

After being patted on the head by her mother, Liyu's face flushed a red, and she shyly lowered her gaze.

A joyful blush spread across her face.

'Hehe, Mommy is touching me~'

'It's not an energy hand, but her real hand~'

'I'm the first one to be touched by her, right?'

Thinking of this, Liyu couldn't help but feel a little proud, and a pleased smile graced her face, which left Yumo puzzled.

"What's the matter,Why are you laughing?"

"Ah?! Nothing, nothing at all!"

Liyu quickly shook her head in denial, suppressing the smile on her face, and hastily attempted to shift the topic:

"Anyway, Mother, you seem a bit dirty, don't you think?"

"Dirty?"

"Yes, a bit! After all, you've been sitting on the ground this whole time~"

"Hmm?"

Yumo raised her eyebrows and looked down at herself.

Her white cloak, draped around her body, was already marred with patches of dirt from Limo's tackle.

Her delicate body bore signs of dust and soil, which had turned into a sticky mess, dampened by the moist air.

Yumo couldn't help but show a trace of disgust on her face.

Back when she was a Temple, she didn't really mind the dirt. But now...

Yumo disliked the idea of her fair tender body being sullied by these impurities.

"Indeed."

Upon seeing her mother's expression, Liyu quickly thought of a solution and took hold of her mother's wrist.

"Mom! You're all dirty, let me take you to clean up! We could also take a dip in the hot spring!"

"Huh? Clean up? Hot spring?!"

Yumo was taken aback at hearing this.

'A bath?'

'With this body?'

Thinking of this, Yumo pursed her lips and slowly lowered her head to look at her seductive body.

The black-haired girl's face instantly flushed a deep shade of red.

She hadn't even gotten used to this body yet!

And she's supposed to take a bath?!

She was worried she'd pass out from a nosebleed halfway through!

Yet, she had to admit, the sticky sensation covering her body was indeed discomforting.

Additionally, Yumo was curious about her new body.

For a moment, she was torn over whether or not to take a bath.

"Never mind, I'm not familiar with this new body yet, so let's skip the bath for now."

Upon hearing this, Liyu's emerald eyes suddenly flashed with a bright light.

"It's fine! Mommy, if you're not used to it, I can help you!"

"Huh? You'll help me wash?"

"Yes! Just like how you used to help us bathe!"

Liyu sweetly smiled and then eagerly pulled Yumo's hand.

Her little face filled with earnestness, she looked up at Yumo with her big eyes, trying her best to look as cute as possible.

"Can we, Mommy~?"

Yumo:"..."

--

Back to the present,

Yumo, who was already disliking the sticky sensation, couldn't resist Liyu's adorable appeal and ended up being led by the two sisters to the Ice Fang Mountains. She experienced firsthand what it was like to share a bath with her daughters.

Although at first Yumo was still very shy, and her hands perpetually shielding her bosom and Private Area, after seeing the shameless attitude of her two daughters, she helplessly put down her hands and had a very sincere meeting with these two children of her.

At the same time, her new body was also thoroughly studied by these two mischievous girls...

Thankfully, the steam from the hot springs shrouded her flushed face, otherwise Yumo wouldn't know how to uphold her "Motherly" dignity.

"I have to get used to this quickly."

Yumo made up her mind that she had to quickly get used to this new body and the experience of bathing with these two girls. After all, based on their current behavior, they seemed to genuinely enjoy frolicking with her in the water. Additionally, the massage skills of these two girls were quite impressive...

Casting a glance at Limo behind her, who was diligently massaging her back, Yumo wore a pleased expression. She reclined leisurely on the rocks, her back entrusted to Limo and her arms to Liyu.

Having just obtained her sense of touch, Yumo could feel how comfortable this massage was.

In that moment, she felt a wave of bliss~

Indeed, possessing a physical body was a different experience. If she were still in her Temple form, she wouldn't have even dared to dream of such pleasures.

'But wait, don't these two girls stay in the forest every day? Where did they learn their massage technique? Did someone teach them outside, like Sebastian and the others?'

'Hmm?'

'Hold on a second, Sebastian?'

The thought struck Yumo like a bolt from the blue. She abruptly rose from her reclined position, leaving Limo and Liyu beside her in shock.

They asked, puzzled,

"Mommy, what's the matter? Is the message not comfortable?"

"No, that's not it. I just wanted to ask, where is Sebastian?"

"Huh?"

Upon hearing this, the two sisters Limo and Liyu, were stunned for a moment. Then they looked at each other and had a blank expression on their faces.

After a moment's silence, it seemed to dawn on the two girls. Liyu slapped her small hand on her forehead, exclaiming,

"....When we rushed back earlier, we left him at the Northern Peak!!"

Meanwhile, in the northern section of Winter Forest, the night-time temperature had plummeted dramatically. A middle-aged man with white hair, nestled within a tree hollow, had turned into a human popsicle. Forgoing his usual elegant demeanor, the refined butler Sebastian, found himself cursing the nonchalant young girls, Limo and Liyu, in his heart...

'Hold on, isn't there something wrong with cursing them like this...?'
