"Ah~ That hit the spot!"
In her presidential suite, Marika lay in her bathtub and moaned in comfort from the warm water.
"Compared to those wooden barrels back home, it's more comfortable to take a bath in a modern bathtub!"
Marika picked up the bath water with bubbles floating in the bathtub in front of her and blew it gently. The bubbles scattered randomly under her breath.
After a day of fierce fighting, Marika felt that all the accumulated stress had been released by taking a dip in the bath, and not to mention in the most luxurious presidential suite bathtub!
"I'd better thank the hotel owner properly later!"
She thought while she continued to play with the bubbles.
However, besides the stress from battle… there is still another kind of "stress" that has not been released. Madika's thighs began to rub against each other uncontrollably.
"Emm~ What the? My lower body - it's getting hot~"
Looking at her plump and charming body, covered with bubbles, her originally fair skin became more moist and shiny than usual.
Marika couldn't help but grab her tall and plump breasts. Her two huge watermelons were bulging high in the water, and even when the water level was at its highest, they could not be completely hidden. Playing with her sensitive nipples, waves of pleasure flooded into her brain. White milk flowed from her nipples and mixed into the bath water.
"Uh~hmm~uh, my body is getting so hot. I don't usually feel like this. Uh~ Could it be that it has something to do with the power of the intoners? Haan~ I only used it sparingly before, but today I used it so frequently. Did it really trigger the effect? Hmm~"
Marika played with her big breasts, her thoughts and pussy getting hotter and hotter. But even if she inserted two fingers back and forth in her pussy, the burning sensation in her pussy did not ease at all.
"Oh~ I want it so much~ Guuh~ my fingers are not enough~ I want something bigger~! Something hot and hard!"
As her fingers caressed her, Marika felt as if she understood where the hot feeling in her pussy came from. It's a feeling of emptiness! Now she desperately wanted something to fill the emptiness in her belly. At this time, a handsome man with a ponytail and neutral good looks gradually appeared in her mind unconsciously.
"I really want something big and hard to penetrate me~! Ah~ Bedivere!"
"Well well, already fallen so soon? Tsk tsk, are you perhaps thinking about your Prince Charming now?"
At this moment, a jester-like voice suddenly broke into her mind.
"Oh Shit!"
Malika, who was masturbating, was startled by this sudden intrusion, and even jumped out of the bathtub in fright. Of course, the slippery bottom of the tank caused her to fall heavily. If her body hadn't now had a defense comparable to hardened steel, she might have had a big swelling on her head.
"God damn it! You asshole, are you trying to scare me to death?!"
With her "happy time" interrupted, Marika angrily cursed at the system.
"Like it is possible that you could be scared to death."
"You know what I mean! When girls deal with their physical problems, shouldn't a gentlemen avoid it!?"
Marika shyly covered her private parts.
"How do you know I'm a man?"
"Eh-? Ah-it's not-you-don't you usually talk to me in a male voice?"
"Us systems are genderless. I just chose a male voice just out of habit and convenience."
"Oh-oh...wait a minute! No! That-that's not an excuse for you to suddenly spy on me..while I am busy with that!"
"It's not the first time I've seen you doing it anyway..."
The system muttered disdainfully.
"So you saw it last time?"
"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. The reason I came out suddenly this time is because I detected that the host seems to have troubles that can't be solved, so I came out to take a look."
"Trouble?"
"Yeah~ That's right! Host, are you troubled by feeling empty, lonely and cold lately?"
"C-cut the bullshit."
Of course Marika knew what the system meant, but she couldn't say it, so she could only pretend to be oblivious.
"Why are you playing dumb? You know, I know. You just need some good dicking!"
"What the hell are you talking about!?"
"You heard what I said. What you need now is to find a man you like to have sex with!"
"I-I'm not ready yet!"
Marika blushed and covered her face, shrinking into the bath water.
But the system's mean voice continued:
"Stop with that tsundere act! If you want to fuck a man, just go! And isn't there a ready-made one already beside you?"
"By my side?"
"Your Prince Charming, Bedivere!"
"What are you talking about!?"
"Isn't it? I've been seeing the two of you flirting lately. If you like him, just say so! And you are the king, it's you who has the final say on who you want to be with!?"
"I-I don't have that kind of relationship with him! We are just Master and Servant!"
Marika shyly denied it, telling lies that even she herself did not believe.
"UH! You damn tsundere, you're too slow on the act! Other isekaied fellows have already started to have harems by this time. You are really disappointing me!"
"Don't make it sound like having a harem is a good thing! And-and..."
"And what?"
The system pricked up his nonexistent ears to listen.
"And even if I like him. I-I don't know how to tell him that I like him..."
Marika's voice gradually became as thin as a mosquito, and her face turned as red as an apple.
"Why don't you just activate the skill, the God of Love and stick your butt up for him? Why make it so complicated? Human beings are really weird."
"Only a lunatic would do that! It would be a miracle if he wasn't scared away!"
Marika immediately rejected such a simple and crude plan. There is no other reason, it's so crazy! Such a crazy plan makes Marika wonder if the system even understands how humans work.
"So what do you want to do?"
The system asked impatiently.
"At least—at least one or two dates, I guess?"
Marika twirled her wet hair and muttered.
"Are you sure you're really not a tsundere?"
"Shut up!"
After taking a shower, the flustering atmosphere just now was gone, and Marika had lost all interest in continuing.
After putting on a bathrobe and drying her hair, Marika quickly fell asleep from exhaustion.
"Bedivere, kids. We will meet again soon."
That was Marika's last thought before she fell asleep.
When Marika opened her eyes again, she found that she was standing in a field. It was night, and the moon hung high in the sky, casting a cool moonlight.
Marika looked around and found a medieval wooden house. She recognized the cabin.
"The original's childhood home? Is today another memory fragment dream?"
Marika is in a dream and can clearly feel the existence of her other self. And it wasn't hard at all, she could feel a strong wave of sadness emanating from behind the cabin.
Marika could sense that her original body seemed to have lost something very important, so in order to find out, the reincarnated quickly walked to the back of the cabin.
Behind the cabin, the traveler discovered her original self. The original looked very thin at this time, probably only twelve or thirteen years old. Although she was wearing a shabby linen dress, it was still obvious that she was a beauty.
But at this moment, this beautiful girl was holding back tears, struggling to dig a big hole with a shovel that was obviously too big for her. Placed next to the big pit were two adult Numen corpses wrapped in white cloth.
"These corpses...could they be her parents?"
The reincarnated looked at the girl in grief and trouble with sympathetic eyes, but she was helpless. She cannot interfere with anything in the dream. This is the rule of the memory fragment dream.
So Marika sat quietly aside, watching her child self digging the grave bit by bit, and then carefully dragging the parents' bodies into the grave.
After the girl buried her parents, she piled a tower of stones in front of their graves as makeshift tombstones.
Marika did not leave throughout it all, but kept sitting next to the girl to accompany her.
The girl knelt in front of the tomb and cried for a long time. Her eyes were red and swollen from crying. She didn't get up until no tears could be squeezed out.
The girl wiped away her tears with her arms, and then her face showed a determination that a child of this age should not have, and she said solemnly:
"Father, mother, you don't have to worry about me. From now on, no matter what, I will work hard to survive! And one day... I will definitely create a paradise without war, for your sake."
"A paradise without war? I didn't expect our ideals to be so similar."
Marika couldn't help but sigh as she listened to her other self's childhood vows. Indeed, war has brought too much harm to the Lands Between. The original's struggle for hegemony among the gods, the Erd Tree conquest, and the war of the Shattering that destroyed everything. After so many wars, the Lands Between has long been uninhabitable. The people there are nothing more than zombie-like husks, a shadow of their former glory. Perhaps a new peaceful beginning in the new world is the best destination and compensation for them. But before that happens, there are many obstacles.
Sensing that the dream was about to end, Marika stood up and looked at her past self, and solemnly swore:
"I have clearly heard your wish. I will definitely become stronger, strong enough to help you create that paradise without war."
After saying that, her dream ended.
A sharp knock on the door woke Marika. She turned over tiredly and looked at the time on her phone.
At seven o'clock sharp.
Wondering who would come to her so early, Marika went to open the door to her room, drowsy from just waking up. When the door opened, Marika saw two people who annoyed her beyond measure.
"Big sister! Good morning! x2"
Fang Bao and Nangong greeted in unison, their voices full of energy and excitement.
"You two again?"
Marika looked at the two fools in front of her, covered her face and sighed.
"Sister, your words yesterday really inspired us! We have decided to follow you with all our heart for the rest of our lives and help you realize your great dream!"
Fang Bao said excitedly.
"That's right! Let's carry forward your great ideals all over the world together!"
Nangong echoed equally excitedly.
"Didn't you hear what I said yesterday? What you two need to do is go home and find a real job, not here bothering me!"
Marika said in annoyance and slammed the door shut.
After being rejected, Fang Bao and Nangong looked at each other.
"Ah! I understand!"
Then Fang Bao suddenly shouted again, and then said with feverish eyes:
"Big sister must be like those Kung Fu Shifu's and will not accept students casually!"
Nangong also suddenly realized and said:
"I see! Then as long as we keep coming to ask for help from Sister, she will definitely be moved by our sincerity and accept us as her subordinates!"
"Then we will definitely come back tomorrow! Sister!"
After the two said this, they left happily.
Meanwhile, somewhere in Zhongyuan City...
"Long Aotian! You have gone too far!"
A seriously injured man pointed at the young man in front of him and said with tears. Surrounding him were his trusted lackeys lying on the ground, all beaten to near death.
"I just ate three fresh noodles without paying. Why did you kill my whole family and my subordinates!"
The young man being accused had delicate features, a strong back and a strong waist, and was wearing a martial art suit. The young man turned around and said indignantly:
"Hmph! You have some balls to say that. My girlfriend Qing Qing opened a five-star chain restaurant with her family of three to earn hard money. Do you know how sad Qing Qing cried?!"
"Then why don't you just get your money back! Or you can kill me! Why do you want to involve my family!? They are innocent!"
"Because I, Long Aotian, keep my word! If I say I will kill your whole family, I will definitely kill your whole family!"
After saying that, Long Aotian blasted the man into pieces with one chi palm strike.
