Chapter 11 - Bath

Taking a bath huh? I often did that with Mikan and Rito when we were young. I don't particularly feel embarrassed at the idea considering I have more self control over myself than before.

'I need to take a bath with Lala and Mikan.'

[ Quest Created! ]

[ Task: Take a bath with Lala and Mikan ]

[ Reward: Lv.1 Tranquil State(C) ]

Oh this can be useful when I need to calm myself. Clear mind does have its benefits! Alright, it's just taking a bath there isn't anything weird. It's not like Mikan has secret feelings for me…right? Yeah, I absolutely don't have any feelings for me.

"Sure." I nodded with a sweet smile as I stood from my chair much to my little brother's flustered face.

"What!!? Are you going to just agree to that?"

"Hmm? Why should I refuse?"

"B-but you are a boy, and s-she is a girl." He was all red as he was saying that. As his brother, I worry about him sometimes. But wait, I can use it.

"You know what, you are right. I shouldn't go to the bath alone with Lala."

"R-right, boy and a girl shouldn't bath together before marriage." I'm literally engaged to her and I can't be a man if I don't take it.

"Mikan, want to join?" I asked as Rito was in disbelief hearing my words while Lala became excited.

"Huh?"

"That's a great idea! Mikan, let's go!"

Lala practically dragged Mikan to the bathroom. Mikan didn't show any strong signs of refusal. We all left, leaving Rito with a cloud of smoke coming out of his head. In the bathroom, we all wore bath towels to cover our private parts... for now at least.

Lala didn't seem to mind, but Mikan was embarrassed even though she tried to hide it. I sat on the seat before the mirror, and Lala ran towards me, dropping her towel.

"I'll wash you, Haruto." Lala was more excited than I am.

"Don't stand in the doorway. While Lala washes, I wash her as well. Later we can turn around, so I'll wash Lala, and she washes you. Sounds good?"

I said as she was looking at my body that had slowly lost its fat. I'm already at 80% Big Daniel Park Templates making me even stronger and a little bit more might unlock [ Ultra Instinct ].

Mikan began washing Lala as I felt my fiancee hands washing my front. Damn this is a lot harder than I initially thought. Something rising and it's not the shield hero. Fuck, relax, take deep breath and think of something else like Miu…Fuck that made it worse!! Now I can't stop thinking about a naked Miu!!! Curse you!

"Brother be honest…what have you been doing?" My inner turmoil was saved by my cute little sister! Thank you Mikan!

"Hard to say, I've started learning how to fight." I said since I lied to her last time and it left a bad taste in my mouth but that's because I wasn't in the mood at that time.

"...Why? Won't you get hurt?" Mikan looked worried while I shook my head as I placed my hands on her head.

"One way or another I'll get hurt, at least I know how to defend myself to avoid that." I said while Lala was humming as she washes me.

"Don't worry, Mikan, Haruto is really strong! He even fought Zastin who is known as the best swordsman back in our world." Lala cheerfully declared while Mikan was unsure if she should believe it or not.

"Just so you know, Devilukean can carry Truck-kun." I said as her eyes widened and tried to say something but couldn't look at Lala in shock.

"That's true, Us Devilukean are one of the few physically strong races! Oh speaking of, maybe one day we can pay a visit! There are so many places I can show you!" Lala said.

"Alright, time to switch, we need to wash you up. Turn around." I said as Lala became excited.

"Yeees!" We all turned around, and I started washing Lala. I started with her back the same way as she did to me.

"Hey, maybe I should wash Lala."

"Don't need to. I can wash her without a problem." Truthfully, I do but let's just think of this as mental training. Controlling my breathing and lessening my arousal does wonders for me.

"...But what about Lala? Maybe she-"

"Haruto, scrub me rougher~."

"...or not."

Mikan's arguments were all defeated, and we went back to the washing.My hands were getting lower and lower until they met a devilish tail near her butt.

"Do you want me to clean your tail too?" I asked, trying not to make her feel comfortable. We might be engaged but we barely know each other and didn't want to take advantage of her innocence.

"Sure, but be gentle. My tail is very sensitive." I nodded my head and started gently stroking the tail.

"Mmmm~."

Lala started moaning quietly. She even put her finger to suppress her voice. Fortunately, Mikan didn't seem to notice it or at least pretended not to.

I focused my eyes on her and saw a slight blush around her neck that would be normally unnoticeable, but honestly, it doesn't prove anything. She could feel awkward because of the situation.

We didn't take a bath together for several years, and she is at that age that is already conscious about the opposite sex. I finished cleaning her tail, so I moved my hands to the front. I moved my hands skillfully around her breast.

"Hey, that tickles!"

"I finish up soon, so hold on a little longer." It's good that both of them were turned away because my little brother wanted to announce his presence, and it was hard not to notice him. Soon we all were clean, so the next logical step was to go into the bathtub. Sadly our bathtub was too small for three people to get in.

As the gentleman that I am, I let them use it as I went out. Lala at first protested and wanted to upgrade our bath, but she calmed down after some headpats. To be entirely fair, I gave Mikan headpats as well, and luckily for me, she was uncharacteristically meek, so she accepted them, unlike other times. Afterwards I went to my room to rest and laid waiting for Lala as I was looking at the new skills.

[ Lvl.1 Tranquil State ]

[ Description: Users can remain calm in virtually any situation, allowing them to think with perfect clarity even when under extreme emotional or physical distress. Users can endure mental stress and can be essentially highly resistant to emotion manipulation and torture. ]

This is going to be useful and some training can help me grow even further than I am now. Being a battle junkie has its flaws since I head first to danger when the chance of a strong opponent is present.

"Haruto, let's sleep together!" She burst into my room while I moved asided.

"Come here." Lala excitedly leapt towards me and laid in bed with me. She was wearing Peke as pajama but frankly it's best if we buy her new clothes.

==========

The Next day, everyone went as usual, having trained Kenichi who was still far from reaching his metamorphosis, while I couldn't grow anymore since I hadn't found any strong opponent. As I was heading back when I spotted someone who had a strong attraction. It was a mature woman that had a slender and mature body that quite a few girls in the series envy her for. She had green eyes and brownish red hair.

"Mikado-sensei! Do you need help?" I saw her carrying some heavy stuff even though I know not that she was alien and most likely much stronger than normal but can't let a woman like her carry all that stuff, right?

Not to mention, she's the only one I held some interest and attraction to. Can't blame me when my taste is in a mature woman especially those who are mature. I like among all the types of girls, I like two types the most one being honest girls like Lala and Miu while the other are older and mature women.

"Oh, Yuuki-kun. I appreciate the offer but won't you be late for your class?"

"Not really, our teacher for the next subject didn't show up."

"If that is the case then thank you." I smiled as I took the boxes that were filled with whatever was inside. Based on the weight I can guess it might be best for some tools for medical purposes.

"You seem to have gotten stronger and more fit the last time I saw you." We started walking our way to the nurse's office while Ryouko was able to discern that my muscles started to rapidly develop than normal. She even pat my bicep, noticing it's toughness.

"I started doing some exercise recently." I said as she started thinking for a moment.

"Hmmm, if you don't mind, can I examine you?" My eyes widened in surprise and immediately used my [ Tranquil State ] to calm myself down.

"I don't mind." I said as we soon arrived at her office where I placed her stuff down.

"Can you take off your shirt?" Damn…this is too much for a young man like me but I did agree to it. Guess I have no choice. I was told to remove my blazer then my shirt before lifting the inner shirt inside revealing a lean body. My height was taller than my peers was the main reason why they call me their big brother. I stretched a bit because it's a bit stiff after working out and I didn't notice Ryouko eyeing my body.

'His more lean than the last time I saw him naked. Is it puberty? Earthling physiology is rather unpredictable.' She thought to herself unaware that she was attracted to my body.

"Lie down for me over there." She pointed at the bed as I followed her instruction and laid on it while she began examining my body.

"Tell me, what kind of exercise have you been doing lately?" She asked me to check my vitals and heart rate.

"Well, I've been doing 100 push ups, sit ups, curl ups and 10 km runs every single morning from 4 am." I answered and she looked at me rather shocked.

"And are you able to finish that regime?"

"I do, and I'm also surprised by it." My answer made her think for a moment.

"From now on, tell me your progress. I'm curious how you are able to withstand that kind of training without much problem. Your vitals are normal but I want to test a few more things. If you have time, come visit my home." The last part made her lick her lips. Women don't do that!

"Actually, I've recently discovered hidden power and it allowed me to overcome my exercise." I can trust Ryouko since she's once part of a group of terrorists against Lala's father's rule but left.

"Powers? Can you elaborate more?" She became interested in hearing my words.

"Well, it feels like some kind of energy that makes me Evolve? I don't know how to describe it."

Spiral Energy is described as the power of evolution which is present everywhere in the universe/multiverse. It gives all Spiral beings the ability to evolve as a collectivity and as individuals. One interesting aspect of the Spiral Power is that it seems to have no limits or boundaries in its reach and influence.

Spiral Power is present in all the infinite universes in the multiverse throughout all the 11 dimensions, and it even exists outside dimensions (due to the fact that the Anti-Spiral was able to create a universe outside space and time, between dimensions).

"Interesting, can you draw that energy for me?" I nodded and asked for something that was impossible to normally break. She handed me a piece of spring powered twister tool and nodded.

I tried churning the energy by drawing my emotion and uplifting my spirit thinking about breaking the boundaries. The result caused the tool to snap, which is normally impossible. My action resulted in her being astonished noticing something.

"Fascinating, I want to run more tests in my home. Come visit when you can. Here's my number." She would be a great help in understanding more about my powers but let's do that on Saturday afternoon. After a while, I went back to my class and continued the day like normal.
