Now that I was done practicing my demon eye usage, I quickly decided to take a warm shower using Water Magic and Fire Magic to make the water very warm. I often prepare warm baths for my family this way as well. My mother, father, and my grandmother all like to sleep through this method, which I guess is pretty good for them.
They can take warm baths that comfortably relaxes their muscles so they lose the stress accumulated over the day. There is nothing like a warm bath, even now in my second life, I have come to enjoy them even more than before.
"I suppose that your eye is working fine then?" Asked Eleanora, she seemed slightly annoyed for some reason- Ah, I never thanked her for helping me.
"Yeah, it wouldn't have been possible without your help, Eleanora, thank you for helping me." I said. "I am very grateful, so I owe you a favor."
"Owe me a favor?" She wondered. "I-I am happy with just your gratitude! But what do you truly mean by owing me a favor?"
"It is what Erika taught me, when someone does something good for you without you expecting it, that's when you owe someone a favor back as well…" I said. "Sigh, I know it is childish, don't worry about it."
Erika had taught me this some time ago, and she always says that she owes me so many favors that the only form to repay them is by marrying me and having many children with me, each one would be her "favors" which really frightens me, is the power of owing a favor this powerful? In my previous life there was no such concept, the cold and crude Universe only knew about death.
If you want something you kill somebody and take it from them, if you want power, you kill somebody else and take it from them. Nobody would ever do something for you unless they were your underlings whom you have taken away their freedom to serve you. For a long time, that's how I saw the world and everything else.
But I guess this childish little girl has slowly influenced me in ways I never thought possible, although the things I have learned in my previous life are still there, always protecting me from acting like the naïve child I am supposed to be. I am slowly learning from people I never thought I could learn from, such as a little girl.
However, I don't know what sort of things her father is telling her, but she's surely not coming out with things like that on her own, right? There's no way a girl her age would say that she wants to have many children with me when we grow up and marry… Sigh, now I've finally begun to feel once more ashamed of having accepted such a weird and awkward proposal… That girl is really something else.
Maybe having no brain really makes her a bit dumb… Ah, I should never say that in front of her though.
After Eleanora heard my strange words, she felt slightly embarrassed for some weird reason. She started to stutter while working on what to ask me, she didn't even knew what to ask me to do! Eleanora is really just as much of a handful as Erika sometimes.
"A-A favor… T-Then… How about… Erm… C-Can I take a bath with you, my lord?" She asked while stuttering every single syllable.
Take a bath with me? Is that it? I don't know what's so special about that, I remember that when we were children in my first life, we also took baths together in lakes or rivers. But is that favor worthy of having helped me get a new Demon Eye? Well… if that's what she really wants, I am nobody to reject her will.
"Very well… But right now?" I wondered.
"Y-Yes…" She muttered.
"Then come out… I guess." I sighed.
Eleanora summoned herself out of my Spirit Orb, emerging out of pure spiritual energy and mana and jumping onto the floor right before the bathtub, her clothes were still on though, was she going to wash with clothes? Well, the clothes of a spirit are strange, I suppose they're like part of their bodies.
However, she did just as I thought she wouldn't do, she began to strip in front of me and took out every single piece of cloth in her body while blushing at me, her long black and red dress, her bra, her panties, the black stockings, and the heels, and then any hairpin, leaving her long and silky red hair completely free.
Mind you, she still had the body of the "compact form" she uses most of the time because if she takes her original form from her previous life, she uses too much energy. But I felt slightly relieved that it was this form, as it didn't had any enormous body that might not fit in the bathtub, as it was very small. Her pale-white body was getting redder as she slowly approached the bathtub.
"I-I will get in then…" She said. "C-Can I wash your back?"
"Yes, of course… But are you sure this is going to pay you back?" I wondered.
"Yes… Absolutely!" She said while blushing more and looking directly at my eyes, I could swear for a few seconds that her pupils blazed with a strong red color, she was somehow enjoying this for some strange reason.
Well, I couldn't say her body was beautiful because it was just the body of a girl in her 8 to 9, I am not interested in little girl's bodies after all, but she looked healthy and her skin was silky and beautiful, the most beautiful part of Eleanora has always been her face, eyes, and hair though, and in this form, she looked as adorable as always.
She sat down in between my legs and rested over my belly for a bit, while she began to move the water over her legs and then asked me something.
And like that, we ended washing each other in a very Intimate way I never thought I would, it was… a cute experience, although it appears that Eleanora enjoyed it more.
