Elise had taken off all her clothes, letting the cool breeze touch her skin. She entered the shallow river while covering her chest, shivering immediately. The water was quite cold, maybe because it was close to the mountains. Even so, she still felt a pleasant fresh sensation.


    The female warrior then submerged her body in the water.


    “Wow, this outfit is so stretchy.” Gina slightly stretched the crimson bodysuit from Elise’s outfit. “Perhaps this is new material from your home country?”


    “That’s how it is,” Elise did wash her body in the river, but she still faced Gina at close range. So, if Gina messed with her clothes, Elise could immediately do something.


    “Ugh, I kinda regret doing this,” Raymund grumbled. He did end up letting Elise wash herself in the river out of pity. “I can’t really trust her yet.”


    “And this metal too… I’ve never seen one before.” Gina narrowed her eyes, observing Elise’s shoulder armor. “Could it be from another world?”


    “Actually, what do you want?” Elise asked that not out of her own will but on Raymund’s orders._.


    “I really want to help you.” Gina started washing the bodysuit from Elise’s outfit into the river. “There’s really no other reason.”


    Suddenly Elise came out of the river, pointed a knife at Gina’s neck, still with her naked body dripping with water. Elise also did this on orders from her master. She hid the knife behind her hand that covered her chest. Because she and Gina were blocked byrge river rock, the other women who bathed there wouldn’t be able to see what was happening. The women were also quite far from Elise and Gina.


    Instead of being scared, Ginaughed. “Hey,dy. You’re really going to kill me with such an expression?”


    Elise’s face showed extreme doubt. Even her hands can’t hold the knife steady.


    “I asked once again. Tell me, what do you want?” Elise tried to keep her tone solid.


    “I really want to help you. Look, even I left my weapon there… Well, I can do it with my bare hands if it’s just drying clothes.” Gina pointed to a pair of gloves with magic circles lying a few feet away from her. “I’m in the same group as Checo. I often disagree with him, but he’s still my teammate. What I’m doing is really a form of thanks from that old man.”


    Raymund then spoke to Elise again. The female warrior grimaced as she listened to the absurd instructions.


    “O-okay, you can wash my outfit,” Elise spoke hesitantly. She couldn’t go against her master’s orders. “B-but, you have to take off all your clothes while doing it.”


    Gina froze. Slowly, her mouth opened. Then, sheughed like crazy.


    “So that you can confirm whether I carry a hidden weapon, right? You can also check whether my physique is good or not! If my muscles are developed even a bit, it could be a sign that I’ve learned close-range lethal attacks! Excellent, Elise! Your mind is so sharp!”


    Actually, Elise didn’t think that far. She just executesmands from her master.


    Gina wiped away a tear that appeared in the corner of her eye because sheughed too much. “Okay, okay… I’ll do your request.”


    Gina immediately took off her robe, shirt, pants, shoes, and even her underwear. She then spread her arms while fully naked in front of Elise. Gina really didn’t carry any hidden weapons.


    “Look! I won’t be able to attack you with a body like this!” Gina’s body was so thin her ribs were slightly protruding. Her muscle mass is also almost non-existent.


    Meanwhile, Raymund was grumbling about censorship again.


    ***


    “I’m sorry, Gina,” Elise muttered after walking quite a distance from the river. She felt that her body had be refreshed.


    Gina, walking beside the female warrior, chuckled. “No problem. It’s actually good that you are careful like that.”


    “I see.”


    “But, I’m really curious, Elise,” Gina spoke again. “You are from overseas, right? Where are you from? I never heard your ent. Are you also from the west like me?”


    Elise gulped in confusion. She couldn’t lie at all. That woman didn’t even know the names of the countries in Levidna.


    Gina narrowed her eyes again while studying Elise’s face but then said. “Well, it’s fine if you don’t want to say it.”


    “Sorry…”


    “You have to be careful with that woman, Elise.” Raymund gave a warning. “Don’t let your guard down.”


    They arrived at a street with simple houses made of woods on either side.  Those houses were different from the ones Elise had seen in the first mission. Here, they are circr instead of square.


    “Oh, hello.” Gina smiled and waved, returning the greetings of the residents for the umpteenth time.


    “Looks like they are workers in that ntation.” Raymund made a guess.


    Elise didn’t listen to her master’s words. She tried to ignore the little kids whomented on her exposed ass. The adultsughing at the children didn’t help her either. Her face now looks so red.


    “Well, sometimes they are still surprised by the culture of othernds.” Gina stifled augh when one of the kids said Elise’s bottoms looked like two giant melons. “When I first came here, they alsomented on my clothes.”


    However, Gina’s case is different from Elise’s. Apart from feeling embarrassed that her clothes were too revealing, Elise also felt ufortable wearing them. Every time she moves, her crotch and buttocks always feel wedgies. The bottom of her outfit always goes where it shouldn’t. What’s worse, she just can’t fix it in public. That would be even more embarrassing.


    After a few minutes of walking, the two women arrived at another locations in the workers’ vige. This time, Elise saw bigger buildings, although they were the same shape as the previous houses. They are all made of woods. Those buildings were arranged around arge space, and in the center of the area was a giant bonfire.


    “You two are moving on your own again! What happens if you run into those flying scorpions when you enter that forest, huh!?” Checo’s yell echoed from near the fire.
