#464 - Child raising husband

It hurts!

It hurts, it hurts, it hurts. It feels like my internal organs have shifted. A strong pain runs through my entire body, and it was only now that I barely managed to subdue the energy within me.

At this time, the sky was already dark, and it had been five hours since Zun-zun had fainted. Considering the formidable physique of a Godslayer, being unconscious for so long was enough to show how ruthless Luo Hao had been.

Having woken up, he was currently taking a bath.

He had no idea why there was a small hot spring on the back of the mountain, but it was likely built by Luo Hao for herself. In any case, Luo Hao was a woman, and it was normal for her to be clean.

This mountaintop hot spring was not large, probably only able to accommodate two or three people.

Because it was an open-air hot spring, he could see the starry night sky, coupled with the carefully arranged scenery, which gave his wounded heart a trace of healing.

Erica was uncharacteristically absent.

Perhaps she saw that he was in too much pain and gave him some breathing room. But…

“To actually go for the kill, shouldn't this just be a normal sparring match? Shouldn't it be about stopping before things go too far?”

Zun-zun couldn't help but complain.

He had seen many battle maniacs. Among them, there were many who became more and more excited when they found a worthy opponent. But the only ones who left a deep impression on him were Salvatore and Luo Hao, because he couldn't beat either of them.

“Cui Lian has already held back.”

This voice, as beautiful as a Yueqin, could not be found anywhere else in the world.

Looking back, a stunningly beautiful young woman was sitting on the edge of the bath.

“You didn’t even notice me getting so close. You’re still immature. Reflect on yourself.”

As she said this, she scooped up water and wet her body.

The person who would teach Zun-zun a lesson with the authority of a senior was indeed Luo Hao, but she was now wearing a thin yukata. The wet yukata clung to her exquisite body, making it possible to see her jade-like skin through the fabric.

To take advantage of Zun-zun's weakness, conceal her presence, approach him, and then speak to him in such a reprimanding tone… what excessive behavior.

Zun-zun rolled his eyes.

He had seen many arrogant young ladies, with Priscilla being the prime example, but compared to Luo Hao, who saw herself as the only one worthy under heaven, she paled in comparison—after all, Priscilla still had some discretion when dealing with people, while Luo Hao was truly a martial arts king with her eyes set high above.

“Why are you here?”

“What a strange question. This is my bath. Everything here belongs to me. Naturally, I can go wherever I want.”

“No, no, no, shouldn't you be avoiding suspicion with me inside? And this attire…”

Luo Hao was only wearing a thin gauze-like garment. Although she looked slender, the effect of her full chest and slender waist made her limbs appear even more exquisite, not to mention hiding anything.

“Foolish question. Would people wear a lot of clothes when entering a bath? Are you taking me for a fool? Are you deliberately looking down on me?”

“Huh?”

“Are you trying to say that if I'm not as naked as you, it means I'm a coward, just a weakling who deceives the world with the title of king?”

“Huh???

“…Are you still looking at me with that kind of gaze? Fine, I, Luo Cui Lian, will let you see that not only is my martial prowess supreme, but my magnanimity and courage have also reached the pinnacle.”

With that, she reached for her sash.

After hesitating slightly, she untied it. Under Zun-zun's unexpected gaze, the sound of the clothes sliding against her skin could be heard, and the wet, thin yukata slipped down.

Luo Hao walked towards the bath with her slender, jade-like legs.

“Come, now that neither of us has any protection, let us be honest with each other.”

“——!?”

Her body, like a cold orchid, whether it was the elastic, gelatinous slime or the slender, rounded legs, the delicate and graceful figure, was revealed without reservation.

Zun-zun became restless, finding it hard to imagine where the strength of the slender, delicate girl in front of him was hidden.

“…Th-that, I don't mean to harm you. You don't have to be wary of me. This time it's about showing your magnanimity, please take away your sharp gaze.”

Her ivory skin was slightly tinged with pink, which shouldn't be due to the water temperature. Even if she appeared calm, her body clearly reflected the girl's shyness.

“My apologies.”

Zun-zun turned his head slightly.

Without realizing it, he had become like Satou Kazuma, staring intently at the older sister in the bath… But, it really was great.

He didn't know if it was puberty or the Godslayer's physique, but he always felt that he had become much more active.

“Heh… the spring water here isn't bad, is it?”

“It is.”

While gazing at the starry sky, they soaked in the bath.

The martial arts king's aura gradually relaxed, and her voice was calmer and somewhat sexier than usual.

No, no, no, this person was merciless in her attacks, so he couldn't have such unrealistic thoughts.

Zun-zun subconsciously touched his abdomen.

Luo Hao seemed to notice his thoughts and chuckled, “How is it, does it still hurt a lot?”

“No, it's much better now. But it was killing me earlier.” Zun-zun couldn't help but complain, “Speaking of which, it was just a sparring match, right? Was it necessary to go for the kill? Where's the pleasant martial arts exchange?”

“I've already held back.”

“Hey!”

“I didn’t even use my Authorities.”

“Ugh!”

Zun-zun was momentarily speechless.

Come to think of it, apart from the power and physique enhancement that came with her Authority, Luo Hao really hadn't used any Authority. She had simply used martial arts to fight Zun-zun.

A true martial arts exchange!?

Is this a high-level match that only Godslayers can compete in?

“And you should be thanking me.”

The peerless beauty puffed out her chest, looking very proud.

Under his questioning gaze, she began to explain, “I just used my internal energy to strike your dantian. Now that you have successfully subdued the stray energy, it means you have opened your Ren and Du meridians. Your control over yourself should be even better.”

“…Indeed.”

Zun-zun clenched his fist.

Because he was born in another world and was a Crimson Demon, Zun-zun had never considered internal energy or anything like that, and naturally had never associated it with dantians.

It had always been like this.

However, after he successfully slayed a god, his magic power quickly gathered and was buried in his dantian—when he gave Erica the Juvenile Blessing earlier, it was mobilized from his dantian.

Rather, all divine power was like that.

And Luo Hao, like a martial arts master in a novel, used her internal energy to open Zun-zun's Ren and Du meridians, helping him become a congenital master… No, he should be even stronger.

“Thank you.”

“It's just a love of talent.”

She seemed a little tsundere?

“Eh, wait a minute.” Zun-zun felt that something was wrong, “I remember that opening the Ren and Du meridians will cause one's essence to constantly dissipate. If I hadn't controlled it…”

“You would die.”

“Hey!”

Zun Zun abruptly stood up from the water, his weapon aimed at the nonchalant Luo Hao, poised and ready.

"If you want to take a shortcut, you naturally have to pay the corresponding price. A near-death experience is the norm, whether it's you or me, that's how it is for those who walk the path of dominance."

She spoke as if it were obvious.

She understood that he was talking about the reckless act of challenging a god with the body of a mortal, but challenging a god meant knowing that he would face a near-death experience, while this was something he knew nothing about.

"T-That... What kind of decorum is it for a King to be so uncomposed? Quickly, sit down!"

The girl's gaze shifted slightly as she scolded him affectionately.

Zun Zun twitched the corner of his mouth, then sat back down. Luo Hao visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

She was different from Priscilla.

If it were that arrogant woman, she would probably break Zun Zun's weapon with a displeased expression, instead of scolding him with such shyness like Luo Hao did.

"So, why are you doing this?"

Zun Zun was a little puzzled.

The two of them were not related, and even if they were compatriots, they were more like enemies. It shouldn't benefit her at all.

The newest novels are first published at 69shu.com!

"I've already said it, I cherish talent."

Luo Hao gently wiped her arms, a charming and seductive smile on her face.

"Among the compatriots I know, your martial arts rank second—that old guy in Eastern Europe doesn't understand martial arts at all, and the two young ones in America and England are even worse. The Indian woman also rarely appears. I heard that the Japanese King who became a Godslayer with you is just an ordinary person. Only Salvatore something-or-other is barely worthy of me in swordsmanship, but his style is different from mine, and not as good as you."

"So?"

"Instead of nipping you in the bud like this, I might as well teach you how to become a hero and champion, so as not to be unworthy of the title of Martial Arts Supreme. In other words, I want to train you to be my successor. A-And... you and I are already in a relationship where our skin has touched."

She covered her chest shyly, shrinking back into the hot spring.

Seeing Luo Hao so shy, Zun Zun couldn't tell if she wanted to train a successor or a child-in-law.

"But..."

"I know your concerns, which are nothing more than wanting to return to your own world and not having time to take care of this place. But you don't have to worry too much, I don't often manage these things either. Once you learn how to cross the Netherworld, you can take care of this place."

Speaking of which, Luo Hao was also a complete hands-off manager.

Rather, most Godslayers don't actually do anything, they just lend their name to their subordinates to do things.

Besides, Godslayers are actually similar to Heretic Gods. As long as there are no accidents, they will live forever, not to mention Luo Hao also has the art of preserving her youth.

"One last question, even if I'm from another world, aren't you worried that I'm a King from another territory, like Japan..."

"My Clairvoyance can see through everything."

Luo Hao's eyes also glowed slightly, as if she could see Zun Zun's previous and previous lives. Perhaps that was why she chose him.

"You agree then? From today onwards, you will call me 'Sister'."

"...Huh?"

"I want to become sworn siblings with you, and guide you in the name of 'Sister', and you must return my respect and fulfill your filial duties. I will love and protect my sworn brother, and also fulfill my sworn brother's requests."

Luo Hao smiled slightly, a lovely smile like the sun recovering after a storm.

There was a hint of anticipation in her eyes.

"...I understand, Sister."

"Very good."

She seemed satisfied that Zun Zun was so cooperative.

"Brother, stand up."

"...Why?"

Although he asked, Zun Zun still stood up. Luo Hao did the same, the two of them standing naked facing each other.

The next moment.

She leaned in and kissed him.

"Ngh!?"

It really was a child-in-law!

Just as Zun Zun was lost in thought, Luo Hao conveyed a slightly shy voice through divine sense.

"I'm going to cast a spell on you, don't move for now."

"Huh???"

"Since you are my brother, then you must accept your sister's protection. Kings are often in danger, so in case of an emergency, I can come in time. So, you're not allowed to refuse."

Cherry lips and white skin pressed tightly together.

Seeming to sense Zun Zun's resistance, Luo Hao wrapped her arms around his body, as if to press him into her bosom, with immense strength.

Zun Zun's whole body stiffened.

He could feel the other party's fiery temperature and soft, smooth touch, which gradually became a little mesmerizing.

The contact with the beautiful sister lasted for three minutes.

At first, it was just a touch of lips, but the troublesome physique of the Godslayers meant they could only pass on blessings through deeper contact, so it became a more passionate and bold, concrete-mixer style kiss.

After separating, a crystal clear thread clung to the corner of Zun Zun's mouth, and the object it connected to was naturally his beautiful sister.

His cheeks were slightly rosy, his eyes dazed.

It was a little too stimulating.

"T-To actually have such a charming appearance, s-shameless..."

Seeing Luo Hao's heart-stirring expression, her breathing also became slightly rapid.

Her hands were a little restless, wanting to embrace Zun Zun again and cherish him, but her strong self-control still prevented her from doing so.

"Y-You can't talk about the behavior just now with other people. Although you are my sworn brother, if the matter of me having contact with a man spreads, others will say that it is not the behavior and manners that a young woman should have. So, f-for the sake of my reputation—you must promise."

Zun Zun didn't answer.

Rather, the magic he received from Luo Hao, as well as the explosive development just now, had caused his thoughts to come to a standstill.

Luo Hao's cheeks were slightly flushed, and she stepped forward again, lightly pecking Zun Zun's lips.

Afterwards, her figure disappeared.

Zun Zun slid into the hot spring, his whole body pale, a satisfied smile on his face, looking completely burned out.

And after Luo Hao left, another person sneaked in.

It was a woman.

Only a thin bath towel accentuated her exquisite figure.

"Zun Zun must be feeling very lost right now, being easily defeated. Although I don't know what that Martial Arts Supreme is planning, what I need to do now is to comfort him. That's right, comforting Zun Zun is Erika—the King's Knight's primary mission!"

Erika held her breath and concentrated.

She knew that Godslayers were extremely sensitive to auras, especially Zun Zun, who had eyes that could see through other people's magic.

And when she carefully reached the bath, what she saw was Zun Zun, who was already burned out.

"Zun, Zun Zun————!?"

The girl's wail resounded through the night sky.
