Retired Hero's Slow life

Chapter 16: Girl's Talk

Sylvia's POV:

"Oh my goddess! What is this heaven sent creation?" Rozalia said as she entered the warm body of water.

"Elvin calls it a hot spring." Ariel answered.

"It truly is quite amazing. I don't think anything like it has been made before." I replied.

"Truly, what fool would think to bathe in such hot water?" Rozalia scoffed.

-Elvin's Location at the same time-

"Achoo! Ugh, am I getting sick or is someone talking about me? sigh, oh well."

-Back to the girls-

"So, how does it feel to finally be married?" Rozalia said, not hiding her malice in the slightest.

"Oh, uh, it's been nice, I guess?" Ariel answered nervously.

"Oh, is something wrong? Perhaps your "night" life has been unsuccessful?" She asked.

"Quit it with the teasing, Rozalia, we're all adults here." I said, cutting into the conversation.

"Aren't you curious as well?~ I know I'm jealous~ You know, I was secretly planning to make Elvin fall in love with me over time, and then ask him to marry me, but I guess that's over now~" She replied.

Ariel looked more uncomfortable.

We'd all been aware of the other's feelings towards him, and were secretly fighting for his affection all this time.

Even Rozalia, who shared only a slight history with him, seemed somehow captivated by Elvin.

I could only sigh.

"Why did I have to fall for him?" I thought.

As I was putting half my head under the water, my eyes unconsciously drifted over to Ariel.

"Hers are bigger." I thought.

That gave me an idea.

Slowly I crept up behind Ariel while she and Rozalia were talking.

"You didn't really answer my question from earlier, did you?" Rozalia said.

"Sorry, it's just, nothing's really changed, you know? We're more open with our feelings I guess? But, we've always been honest with each other, so it's not like there's much new to our relationship. Except..." She paused.

Now was my chance!

I sprung up out of the water behind Ariel and prepared my special technique.

"Booby massage!" I shouted as I groped Ariel's big mounds on her chest and began kneading them relentlessly.

"Ahh! Stop it! What are you doing!" Ariel moaned while I continued to grope her.

"Come on, we're all girls here, there's nothing wrong with having a little bit of fun, right?" I said, with a menacing smile on my face.

"Hehehe!" I began to laugh uncontrollably.

"Ohhh! I had no idea humanoid forms could produce such pleasure!" Rozalia said, after seeing me begin groping Ariel, she started doing the same to herself, completely replicating my actions.

"Stop it, both of you!" Ariel shouted as she tried to resist.

"Sorry, but as someone who specializes in magic, and not physical combat like me, you stand no chance! So, give up and let it happen!" I said as I continued even harder than before.

"I wonder what would happen if I went lower!" I said as I slowly let one of my hands drop closer to the floor.

"Stop it!" Ariel moaned loudly.

Just before I could go any further with my teasing, the door suddenly slammed open.

"Are you okay, girls!?" Elvin shouted as he looked around the room.

Slowly, his mind processed the sight before him.

Then he quickly and calmly backed away and slammed the door shut.

Not just me, but Ariel and Rozalia all were silent as Elvin made his retreat.

Then, as if nothing had happened, Rozalia continued with what she was doing.

Seeing Elvin made me cool off my head, and I stopped teasing Ariel further.

"Um, listen, Sylvia." Ariel began to say.

"Yes?" I replied.

Ariel looked unsure of herself, before strengthening her resolve and saying.

"Do you best!" She said, with a thumbs up.

"Are you sure?" I asked, uncertain.

She nodded her head in reassurance.

"Yes. If it's you, I'm sure you can do it! Just, don't ever do that again!" Ariel shouted in embarrassment and anger.

"Alright, alright, I won't. And thanks." I replied.

Ariel smiled.

Then we looked towards the background noise.

Rozalia was still having fun with her body.

"Do you perhaps?" I asked.

"Ehehe! At least someone with be able to feel my pain!" Ariel said with a wicked look on her face as we both attacked Rozalia.

All in all, it was a fun and eventful night.
